It’s a quiet week in our cosmos. As the reverberations from last week’s full Moon in Sagittarius and beginning of Gemini season settle, we are met with movements that are more subtle.
Weekly Astrology for May 26-June 1
May 27: Mercury in Taurus sextile Saturn in Pisces; Moon enters Aquarius
May 30: Moon enter Pisces
May 31: Mercury in Taurus conjunct Uranus in Taurus
Mercury Sextile Saturn
In astrology, Mercury is our mind. It’s the way we take in our environment, process what we see, and make sense of the world we find ourselves in. It’s our learning, pattern formation, thoughts, mental organization, and communication.
Saturn, in a similar way, relates to the organization of our environment. Unlike Mercury, however, it’s less about our minds and more about any tangible actions we are taking. It’s the practical and grounded building of our lives over time.
On May 27, 2024, these planets come into what is called a sextile, which is a harmonious angle of 60 degrees in the cosmos. Mercury and Saturn, in collaboration, create space for us to bring together thinking and planning with long-term visions. The sextile creates an aura of clear thinking, grounded judgement, sacred discipline, and practical groundwork that enable you to clearly and caringly approach tasks and organization in support of who you want to be, where you want to go, and the life you are building.
Mercury Conjunct Uranus
A louder and perhaps stronger energy than Mercury sextile Saturn is the conjunction, or coming together, of Mercury and Uranus on May 31, 2024.
Uranus creates a fitting partnership for Mercury and the mind. It speaks to change and breakthroughs, freedom and innovation. It has been likened to the “universal mind” in which all information, knowing, potential, and inspiration exists.
Mercury conjunct Uranus is a day of mental expansion, liberation of the mind, and vast visioning. It is a time of unfiltered streaming of information and possibility, as if what could be is floating in the ethers for us to easily tune into and access.
As Mercury and Uranus come together this week, we can allow it to expand the boundaries of our thinking and open ourselves to new possibilities, different ideas, and alternate perspectives. Encourage it to move your awareness past the structures of your perspectives, the bounds of your beliefs, and the narratives of what you think is possible for you and your life.
Weekly Horoscopes for May 26-June 1
As the planets shift in our cosmos, they simultaneously shift through our astrological charts, highlighting different areas of our human experience. Look to the weekly horoscope for your rising sign so you can begin to discern related shifts and invitations.
Aries Rising
As you witness your truth about what matters and what is beneath the depths of your feelings, there is potential calling your name. Let ideas related to financial possibilities break down the walls that have been restricting what you believe is attainable for yourself.
Taurus Rising
There is expansion taking place in the core of who you are. Your identity is expanding, shifting, and letting in more of your light. This week, invite spaciousness to take you beyond the bounds of how you see yourself and what you believe is possible. There is much more within you waiting to be expressed.
Gemini Rising
Look at the practicality of the long-term visions you are building. How can you tend to them? What incremental planning or actions will support their manifestation? As the week continues, inspiration awaits you learning how to tune into the unseen, play with possibility, and connect with a vaster flow of the Universe.
Cancer Rising
Look ahead. Dream. Let your desires communicate with your heart, expand your mind, and enable you to move past what you’ve believed is possible for yourself. Don’t be surprised if collaborations and connections become part of creating the life you imagine for yourself.
Leo Rising
This week invites expansion of your long-term visions and legacy. It asks you to create space for new ideas and possibilities when it comes to the building of your dreams and reverberations you are here to make. Let yourself be open to the invitation through creative brainstorming, visioning meditations, and dreaming big.
Virgo Rising
Mercury and Uranus coming together is like a door opening. A door to vaster wisdom, meanings, and insights regarding the inner workings of the universe. Stepping through it asks you to explore philosophies and systems that will bring you closer to these workings. Let them expand your mind, perspectives, and sense of belonging in life.
Libra Rising
As you tend to the foundations of your well-being this week, much opens within you. When you provide yourself with eveyday support and structures, you can travel deep within yourself for a transformation that has been calling your name.
Scorpio Rising
There will be an invitation to offer your creativity more space this week, and in a way that honors its necessity in your life. As you acquiesce, inspiration will arive through your favorite people. It’s a week for constructive conversations and brainstorming with partners and friends.
Sagittarius Rising
As you tend to the foundations of who you are and the safety within yourself, there is something opening within your daily life. Your overall sense of well-being is being invited into a new chapter that will propel you into movement, change, freedom, and inspiration.
Capricorn Rising
Your thoughts are the foundation of your well-being. This relates to your state of mind and the narratives that run through your thoughts. This week calls for a redesign of your mind as it propels you into joy, play, creative expression, perhaps even a little romance.
Aquarius Rising
There is an overall invitation for security, stability, safety, and belonging calling your name this week, Aquarius rising. It may be shown to you by your outer reality in the form of possessions, work, or money, or it could be within your own being, your body, psychology, and heart. How can you offer yourself more stability?
Pisces Rising
It’s all about the expansion of your mind, Pisces rising. As Saturn invites you look at responsibility as something sacred supporting your growth, your mind is offered the opportunity to expand and rearrange. As you lean into the truth that you are in charge of your life, much potential begins to open ahead of you.
Your Invitation
Although the week opens with a subtle invitation to engage in practical planning for the building of your life, it closes with the less subtle invitation to take your visioning, beliefs of what is possible, and perspectives far beyond where they currently exist. We have built a framework to hold us as we tend to the practical aspects of our lives and now we allow that framework to propel us far into the ethers.
“A mind the is stretched by new experience can never go back to its old dimensions,” is a quote attributed to Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. Mercury conjunct Uranus is where this stretching happens if we allow ourselves to let its energy in. As the week builds toward the 31st, create space for brainstorming, idea play, and exploring your potential.
