This Mercury Retrograde beginning June 3 and lasting until June 3 is in Gemini, the sign it rules so lends a softer result, although the usual cautions and benefits still remain which are, avoid signing important documents or making significant purchases, review any necessary contracts for errors and convoluted clauses. Also, pay attention to messages and all communication so as to avoid mistakes with dates and times and even locations if you’re scheduled to meet someone at a specific place. Missed appointments or wrong directions are common during this cycle. Good practice is the “do-over” such as redoing anything and also clearing for upgrades. Take your time with managing activities. On May 22 Mercury reverts back into Taurus for the remainder of the retrograde that calls for review of all finances ranging from income to investments. Pay attention to financial records to ensure you’ve not only paid necessary bills but that mistakes aren’t made and you’re over-charged.
On the same day, May 10, Jupiter moves into Aries where it remains until October 28 that revs up ideas and goals with the aim of advancing ideals that in general is good unless you tend to be impulsive and then there might be a tendency to overshoot. This is also about money that instigates spending and taking the initiative even if a bit risky. Gambling isn’t the way to go unless you’re willing to believe in what you’re doing either way it goes. New projects and your independence are important though keep in mind the influence of the solar and lunar eclipse axis in Taurus and Scorpio that’s also about finances and Mercury’s involvement. Much can be done with conviction and looking at the long-term process.
Sunday, the day before the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio on May 16, brings two major solar angles that are a square to Saturn and a sextile to Neptune. These angles combined suggest patience and consideration of the bigger picture of your choices.
