Editors Note: Whether you are a devoted follower of your Astrological chart or not, take a moment to see what your sign has in store for you this month.  I feel it is a great opportunity to meditate on the things that you want as well as say some extra prayers for things you need help with.  Use your Astrological Forecast to guide you to your best self!

After a slow start thanks to Mercury retrograde in Taurus, the energy starts to pick up again after the 11^th.   We are working through the last of our Saturn in Virgo lessons (where we’ve been apprenticing since September 2007). We have had to release perfectionism and judgment and decide that small steps progressively lead to long-term success.

In addition, we are completing the 8 year cycle of Uranus in Pisces.   We have experienced major breakthroughs, shocks and awakenings in our respective Pisces houses, since 2003. Next month is the beginning chapter of an entirely new life and decade, and we will certainly feel the escalation at the end of May when Saturn turns direct on May 30^th and Uranus moves into the sign of Aries on May 30^th.  Talk about a sparkling Memorial Day weekend! This will be a small change compared to the fireworks arriving one month early on June 6^th, 2010.

For now, see where you desire to leap forward as opposed to holding back. In other cases, pay attention to where you want to sacrifice yourself versus creating proper boundaries.  You may experience an event showcasing this issue around the 23^rd.  This is a situation of balancing and calibrating your energy properly.  Come next month, all heaven and hell will break loose (in a positive way).  The wild card is in your Aries house where freedom is going to be the key word for years to come.   This month, enjoy the last few weeks of relative tranquility as we prepare for the hi-octane future.

ARIES

After a momentary lapse of confidence, mid-month you begin to feel capable of handling any challenge. Even if your co-workers are skeptical and suggest caution, you are certain you have guidance from on high. The last few days of the month proves that guardian angel is none other than your fierce and dynamic self!

TAURUS

You’ve been a bit tongue-tied for several weeks, but the silence has ended.  Friends are very much supporting your brilliant ideas, even if you are feeling less than sure.  On the 30^th, you will realize your ability to manifest from a deep spiritual pool that has no chance of drying up any time soon.

GEMINI

Despite the fact that you are receiving many professional accolades, you have been feeling somewhat insecure and undermined.  Really, there is nothing to worry about as it is more than likely an inherited emotional trait.  You will know for certain that you are moving into high visibility when you receive an out of the blue opportunity from a highly -placed friend or mentor.

CANCER

It may seem as if friends have not been as forthcoming or vocal as you would have liked.  That all changes after the 11^th.  Right now, you may have more support from overseas and or spiritual connections than from your old circle.  There is no stopping you from growing, as you will soon see once the universe puts you in the public eye after the 30^th.

LEO

It’s been a bit slow moving on the work front, both growth -wise and financially.   Hence, you may be considering joining forces with a visionary colleague in a business or creative venture.     At the end of the month, the career barriers fall away and your faith and foreign opportunities expand exponentially.

VIRGO

It appears you’ve experienced a minor crisis in conscience, since last month.  This has contributed to your ennui and worry, despite the fact that your partner, best friend or client thinks you’re fantastic.  Keep the faith because by going deeper into a personal or professional relationship, you will reap unexpected rewards.

LIBRA

Ongoing financial arrangements or talks may have reached a standstill.  In some way, you may feel it’s your fault or bad karma, even though events in your everyday life seemed to be blessed.  Buck up because the universe has your best interests at heart.  Even if you’re not looking for love, events close to the 30th show a new dream come true.

SCORPIO

If your partner has been rather taciturn of late, he/she may start to open up to you around the 11^th. You are feeling amazingly creative right now, even if you think your ideas are ahead of their time. At the end of the month, you’ll find more support as well as another more potent eureka moment that has long-term effects on your work situation.

SAGITTARIUS

Everyday life has been a bit of a downer lately, but that is all about to change.  You are feeling very inspired and are ready to present your vision to a wider audience.  Not only will the end of the month bring amazing breakthroughs in art or self-expression, but also the potential for a life-changing love.

CAPRICORN

You may have experienced some writers block since April.  You are attempting to balance spiritual beliefs with more mundane practical advice. This is a momentary lull, considering the life-altering inner shift that will happen at end of this month, bringing you a totally new emotional freedom.

AQUARIUS

There have been some misunderstandings with family and live-in partners.  The smoke clears after the 11^th as you feel more capable and talented and will go it alone, if necessary.  Fortunately, that won’t have to be the case when you find out at month’s end that a multitude of local friends and fans are ready to jumpstart a new community based project/blog/group with you at the helm.

PISCES

It’s been hard to get your point across to friends and relatives.  No one seems to understand that you really know what’s going on, in far greater depth and complexity than is evident.  Soon, that will not be the case as end of the month, your skills and talents will prove very beneficial, innovative and, most of all, lucrative.
