May 2011 horoscopes for Pisces
In May we will experience the first of three remarkable astronomical events that take place in 2012. This first event is an annular solar eclipse at 0º degree of Gemini, on May 20th at 7:53 PM (Eastern Time), followed by the transit of Venus and the Sun on June 6th, 2012 and the total solar eclipse on November 13, 2012. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon’s apparent disk is just smaller than the Sun’s disk and the Sun appears as a brilliant ring.
 Eclipses have a reputation for bringing change, good or bad and often stress. As an astrologer I don’t believe eclipses are a cataclysmic event that some people suppose them to be or an ill omen, as ancient traditional astrology says. If you expect bad things to happen, chances are you will create a self-fulfilling prophecy, because the energy of a negative thought could be very powerful. We are the co-creator of our reality; I believe we attract what is in sync with our thoughts. However eclipses do present opportunities to change, and change is often necessary in order to evolve. When we fear change and refuse to accept when something is done or gone or not for us anymore, then we can experience bad things. Eclipses bring messages, and if we ignore or miss ‘the message,’ chances are we won’t be able to fulfill our dreams and wishes for the future. Being aware and conscious is the best way to confront any astrological event, when we are unaware, asleep or unconscious, we become vulnerable to events. Pisces. Venus the goddess of beauty, love, luxury and women’s matters, is going to retrograde. It happens once a year and starts May 15th and finishes on June 27th. May is traditionally known as the bride’s month, however this May, it’s not propitious for a wedding day, nor is it a good time for cosmetic surgery or to buy expensive items, such as a piece of art, decoration, jewelry and so on. It’s a time to reconnect with LOVE; love for self and love for others. Venus in retrograde motion is supposed to mean that love enters a fated period, where we may experience problems in our relationships and we need to sort out what our real feelings are for the person we are in a relationship with. It’s a karmic time as well. Old friends or lovers may reappear offering us a second chance to reconnect or just to recognize that you don’t belong together. Sometimes some relationships finish leaving some feelings behind and some doubts. A Venus retrograde period can help us to review our feelings. It may also be that an old flame appears on the scene again. The area in your chart where Venus will retrograde shows where you may have ‘love issues’ during this period. This is a time dear Pisces, when you should give, be generous and follow your heart. With an open generous hand, you get instant good karma. Don’t expect for people to fulfill your emotional needs at this time, in stead re-defined what is really important to you. Quality is better then quantity. Don’t even think about purchasing a property until June 27th or moving to a new address. Mercury sextile Venus on May 3rd and 4th. It is a great opportunity to express our feelings of love and puts the focus on communication in relationships. We will be able to fully express our affections with loving words. Interactions should be frank and open; it may be your last chance to talk about your relationship problems (if any) before Venus retrogrades. Be open and express yourself, either to your lover, to a friend or to someone you love and are having issues with. Today you may hear something you want to hear for long time from someone you love dear Pisces. Someone in your family could give you an extraordinary idea or communicate something to you that could make you really happy today. There’s a full moon on the 5th, in Scorpio at 11:35 PM (Eastern Time). This is an intense full moon and it’s asking us to reconsider our goals and the effort to fulfill them. It’s time to be honest without hurting loved ones’ feelings. It is also time to see what our naked eyes can’t see, because we have the power to dig and explore the underground and our unconscious feelings. The intensity will be in the air. The moon will be making harmonic aspects to Neptune, Mars and Pluto throughout the day, which is an easy and energetic energy. An opposition to Jupiter from the moon can make everything bigger and even more intense. At this full moon dear Pisces you may hear good news from far distance. If you are traveling, you may get very inspired or find a person who will inspire you. Some of you may be finishing a degree in school. This full moon is beautifully aspecting your ruler, Neptune, and you are getting the best vibrations on earth. If someone like a romantic partner or an associate has being unreasonable harsh with you, at this full moon, this person will adjust his or her behavior and apologize or just go away from your life. Mercury will travel through Taurus from May 9th until May 24th, making this time a perfect period to transform fantasy into facts. Practical Taurus prefers to be straight to the point. We think things out in a balanced manner; we are realistic with our ideas, which can provide a solid foundation for our projects. It’s time to examine alternative points of view. Mercury will travel the area of communication, which is his domain… so communication gets easy and your imagination goes high. Good time to buy a new computer, or install a new soft ware. Perfect time to learn something new. The 13th is a very lucky day! The Sun and Jupiter are making a beautiful aspect. This is a good day for business, money and expansion in all areas of our lives. This is the luckiest day of the year dear Pisces, what ever form of communication you use in this day, will add a huge expansion in your career. It’s a good day to send out your resume to a company you want to work for, or to present a project to your boss, or make a business plan… You are witty, smart and capable. On the 15th, 16th and 17th, Mars and Pluto are in perfect aspect, a very powerful one. Whatever you plan or start on these days tends to progress and grow in a perfect direction. These days are very beneficial to your relationships, as I said above, if anybody is abusing you psychologically and making your life stressed, now he or she will change behavior or this person won’t bother you anymore. If you are single, you have strong chances to find your soul mate. As I said at the top of the page, Venus starts to retrograde on the 15th. Meditate and try to integrate soul and mind. The Sun enters the sign of Gemini today, the 20th, hours before the Eclipse. Gemini is a sign of flexibility and options. Nothing can limit us now. We are open to try alternative methods and multiple perspectives. The Sun is entering you area of family and now the attention goes to your parents and your family and housing matters. The new moon in Gemini and the Eclipse are taking place on the 20th, at 7:47 PM and 7:53 PM (Eastern Time) respectively. Please read about the eclipse on the top of the page. This eclipse is in conjunction (close degree) to the south node and in opposition to the north node which represents the past and future, and is making a beautiful aspect to Neptune and Chiron, what means, we are experiencing now the result of past decisions and choices; however we will have opportunities to create our future, transforming our present thoughts and visualizing the future we would like to see. We have the free will to transform bad karma (past) in good Dharma (future). Use your imagination and fantasy to see beyond and create your future. This is the friendliest Eclipse of the year for you dear Pisces and it’s in your area of family, housing and emotional issues. You may hear spectacular news from a family, you may find the ideal home to buy, or you may receive an amazing and expensive gift from your parents. You feel in your best emotionally, psychologically and spiritually at this Eclipse. You ruler, Neptune is receiving a great vibration from this lunation. Mars in Virgo is in stressful aspect to the north and south nodes during this eclipse. Do I stay or do I go? It’s your choice, either change and move on, or unwelcome events can take place and show you what you refuse to see or refuse to change. Meditate today, take some time alone and ask yourself what you are refusing to accept, what you are refusing to change and what your wishes are for the future. On May 23rd, the Sun and Neptune together can create the perfect atmosphere for misunderstandings, forgetfulness and deception. If you are following a guru or a spiritual path, chances are, you may lose your grip on reality and get lost in a fantasy world. This is a day dear Pisces, when if you work hard and stay focus, your can accomplish a lot, but is you just go by the day spontaneously, then you may get confused and out of focus to accomplish your tasks. This is not a good day to relay in any “miraculous guru” or any other form of religiosity, that promises more then it can delivery. Don’t trust anyone as well, you can be deceived. On May 25th, Mercury enters the sign of Gemini, and the planet of communication becomes more agile and playful until June 7th. Gemini is ruled by Mercury, so this mentally mobile planet feels totally comfortable in his own home. We tend to zip from one subject to another. It’s Facebook and Twitter time. The communication with your family will be enhanced is any issue exist, you may feel like talking about it and resolving the problem. On the 28th we experience changes and we are open for the unorthodox and for original ideas. This is a good day to experiment and speak freely. You can receive an unexpectedly rise in your salary or a promotion. You may gain some big amount of money.
