The last time I wrote, I wrote about a dream I had about my mother having some sort of accident that changed her life. The next night my husband and I were woken by a call from a good friend of ours whose mother had just committed suicide earlier that day…our hearts sank as we listened to the news…we got the call early in the morning on May 4th, the day in my dream that my mother had her accident. I have to ask the question, was my dream foretelling of this event? How could I have known that it wasn’t my own mother, but a friend’s mother? How could I have helped in some way?
The last couple of days have been interesting…I can’t seem to focus on homeschooling or gardening. I’m worried about my friend. I want to call her every hour to check on her, but I know she needs space to feel all the feels. I want to send her funny memes to cheer her up, but I’m not sure if that would actually be insensitive. I’m not sure how to be the best friend I can be—what’s too much and what’s not enough? How can I even think of writing my horoscope when something like this has happened?
Obviously, I’ve decided to write, because, in some small weird way, writing is helping. I wrote another post about the dream I had last night, called, “Acceptance of the Unfamiliar.” Read it if you like.
But, I’m here now, ready to write the horoscope for today, so here goes:
Today is Friday, May 6, 2022
The moon is at home in Cancer and so you may want to be at home, too! Don’t be surprised if you want to snuggle up in a warm blanket, drinking hot cocoa, while curled up on your couch. When the moon is in Cancer we want to focus on our home, making it comfortable— this includes cleaning, organizing, decluttering, and decorating, as well as cooking good-smelling foods or diffusing yummy smelling essential oils.
Yesterday the Sun and Uranus had their conjunction in Taurus—this conjunction could’ve shaken something of value loose inside you that you have had locked away, like when you add coins to a piggy bank that has no way of opening and you have to smash it to get the money out! You caught a glimpse of whatever it was that you need to free, yesterday, but you didn’t have the guts to smash that bank open, instead you just turned it upside down and tried to get the money out, shaking the bank vigorously—by today, it is obscured again— because Uranus is now being blocked by the light of the sun—it’s under the sunbeams, as it were— by the last week of the May when Uranus is no longer obscured by the rays of the sun, you’ll smash open that bank and free what’s rightfully yours!
Today, though, you may feel like expressing yourself through prose or lyrics. Mercury in Gemini is sextile Venus in Aries and even though Venus is at detriment in Aries, poetry and prose may be the best course of action.
