This is the "Care and feeding
of a New World Age" report for Gregorian date of May 6th
2016 and
1 – Eb
"eb" or Road in the
Mayan Tzolkin calendar, with the
Taurus New Moon, and Jupiter turning direct.
May 6th is 1
– Eb "eb" or Road carries
the themes of destiny, guidance, travel,
vessel of time, dew from heaven, abundance, organization, caretaking, empathy,
growth, service to others, the ladder that connects heaven and earth, the
life-force also known as Prana in the Vedic tradition and Chi in the Chinese
culture, harvest, and humility. Ian Lungold
described Road as "sometimes referred to as the sign of Grass, which is
the most bountiful of all life forms, but is also the most humble." The
road of life leads us to our true destiny on the spiritual path we all must
travel. This thirteen day period would be a good time to humbly offer to serve
others.
Before I get into the daily energy for 1 – Eb "eb" or Road, on the 6th all the planets appear to be moving forward
from our vantage point on Earth, except Mercury, Mars,
Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto which appear to
move retrograde or in reverse motion. Remember the themes of retrograde planets
are the review the past, re-evaluate, reminisce and we can see these themes
being played out. With five planets retrograde everything feels like it is
moving slowly, patience is its own reward. Mercury turned
retrograde April 28th and turns direct on May 22nd, so this trecena would be a good time
to avoid signing contracts or other legal papers, making any major purchases,
or even taking a new job. If you can postpone these types of activities the
terms will be much clearer after Mercury is moving direct. Mercury retrogrades
force us to slow down and pay more attention to our lives by making us focus on
the details of our daily experience. When looking at a retrograde cycle of any
of the personal or inner planets, it provides information about a correction to
our present course. Mars representing drive and aggression, is in Sagittarius. Mars will retrograde
back into Scorpio, the sign of its traditional rulership on May 27th. Retrograde Mars in Sagittarius has us reviewing our drives
related to our beliefs, and in Scorpio the ethics of our actions are reviewed. Retrograde Mars can cause frustration as our energy
to get things done is retarded, which can lead to irritability and aggression. Jupiter was the king of the gods, and the planet is
about good fortune, opportunities, faith, religion, beliefs and expansion.
Jupiter is in Virgo and Virgo is about organization, health, and service. Mostly
what I find with Jupiter retrograde, as with any retrograde cycle there is a
review of the past, and with Jupiter what gets reviewed are missed opportunities.
Retrograde Saturn
in Sagittarius delays success until perseverance
and patience are learned. Sagittarius themes are travel, education, adventure,
expanding our horizons, and planning for upcoming experiences. Saturn brings
the details to the grand overview of Sagittarius.
Saturn retrograde is a task master that demands we take responsibility to
review our beliefs while in Sagittarius. Pluto the planet of
transformation through a death and rebirth cycle, is retrograde, which is about
reviewing the past, and is a time of releasing anything from the past that is a
burden to our new path. Pluto represents death, completion, and in Capricorn,
the breakdown of structures, to bring about transformation.
The big change in the Road trecena is Jupiter changing
directions, as it moves direct on the 9th. Which will bring more opportunities
and possibility for expansion. This also helps us as the number of retrograde
planets move to four, and then to three, as Mercury turns direct during the
Serpent trecena. There has been a lot of hype regarding having five planets
retrograde, but this is not an uncommon experiences particularly during the
summer months when the outer planets are retrograde.
Ok let's look at the daily vibrational energy for this trecena.
May 6th is 1
– Eb "eb" or Road: unity experienced
through serving your community in the
Mayan Tzolkin calendar, with the Taurus New Moon as it merges with Venus, the Sun, and Mercury, is in
harmony with Neptune, and supported by Jupiter and Pluto, which influences the
new moon with people feeling cheerful, warm, gregarious, and wanting to go out
and socialize, followed by being very sensitive to the moods of others, then feelings
of inner and outer equanimity, followed by feeling on a deeper more intense
level, and finally positive energy for integrating our thoughts and moods. The
New Moon-Mercury conjunction forms a grand trine with Jupiter and Pluto, which
is very positive energy, with no squares or oppositions to the lunation that
limit its benevolence. This is a calming New Moon. Taurus is a fixed earth sign
which brings grounding energy that wants to find stability. New Moons bring the opportunity to set an intension for
manifestation on the following full moon. Look to the house of your astrology
chart that contains 16 degrees 41 minutes, almost 17 degrees, Taurus to
consider what area of your life is being activated by this new moon. For me
that would be my eleventh house of hopes and dreams but also friends and
groups, so I would set an intension related to using this energy for furthering
dreams and friendships. The new moon in Taurus is about security, practical
concerns, money, land, real estate, and our physical bodies.
The 7th is 2 – Ben
"ben" or Reed
or Corn: duality experienced through
maintaining the home, while the Sun trines
Pluto which
brings very intense and powerful experiences which may illuminate our deepest
psychology and darkest normally unseen mental realms. This is great
transformational energy for investigation into what parts of our lives should
be reformed. This transit illuminates our motives and is great for studying our
inner workings. People are more likely to express themselves more forcefully
which can make an impact on someone, but be careful of folks who use this
energy for ruthless or selfish purposes. The best use of this energy is for
your own personal growth and evolution. Also on the 7th the Gemini Moon is opposed by Mars which influences people to be
more excitable and irritable which can cause problems in our personal lives.
May 8th is 3 – Ix "eesh"
or Jaguar: taking action through
enjoying nature, while the Moon in Gemini is challenged by Neptune and Jupiter,
and opposed by Saturn, which activates the mutable t-square. Which influences
people emotionally beginning with daydreams and
fantasies feeling more important than reality, followed benevolent and generous feelings for those in our immediate
environment, and finally feeling lonely and
isolated.
The 9th
is 4 – Men
"men" or Eagle: stability through seeing from a higher perspective, with the Jupiter turns direct, meaning that it begins moving forward from our perspective here on Earth,
after appearing to move in reverse since early January. Retrogrades are times
of reviewing and Jupiter is about opportunities, so this will be a shift from
people looking back on missed opportunities as they move forward into a more
expansive future. In Virgo this will begin a time of expansion to service
and organization, as well as opportunities for healthy changes. Also on the 9th
Venus sextile Neptune, inspiring creative and romantic imagination, and is very
nice energy between the planet of romantic love and her higher octave the
planet of unconditional love. This might be a time when we experience universal
love through our personal relationships. This is also very creative and
imaginative energy, that seeks and appreciates beauty. Exposure to art, music,
or poetry could help renew our consciousness during the pleasant dreamy fog of
this transit. Also being in a pleasant environment such as beautiful spot in
the country, a lovely garden, or looking at a majestic view will be very
powerful during this transit. Neptune may give us a deeper sensitivity to the
feelings and needs of our loved ones, which we are more than likely going to
want to satisfy. Some may have the feeling of a soul union with another during
this alignment. This is a good day to indulge in daydreams and fantasies. Also on the 9th the Sun conjuncts retrograde Mercury which prior to turning retrograde Mercury appears to be way
out in front of the Sun, then retrogrades back to conjoin the Sun, and then
falls behind the Sun. Prior to mechanized warfare Generals would send their
cavalry ahead of the infantry to scout out the enemy's location, find possible
resources, as well as the lay of the terrain to move the troops with maximum
efficiency, safety and to their strategic advantage. I like to think of Mercury
when it is stretching out in front of the Sun as gathering intelligence to
report back to our consciousness' during its conjunction to the Sun. Using these two markers connected with a rubber
band, I am hoping to illustrate this pattern. When Mercury, represented by the
black marker, is in front of the Sun,
represented by the red marker, it becomes easier to be overwhelmed by the
increase in new information that seems to have no place to be deposited. This
can increase our anxiety and the sense of losing control. As Mercury retrogrades the tension decreases until it merges
with the Sun, which occurs on May 9th, finding the destination for the
intelligence it has gathered. Once behind the Sun,
Mercury feels as though it is creating drag that retards the possibility of
implementing the new data until it regains forward
motion in its pursuit of the Sun on May 22nd. Also on the 9th the
Moon in Gemini stimulated by Uranus
brings pleasant yet restless feelings craving emotional excitement to do
something outside the daily routine.
May 10th is 5 – Men "men" or Eagle:
stability through seeing from a higher perspective,
with Venus trines Jupiter, which is one of
the best transits except for its short duration, as it brings ease, grace, and
pleasant social interactions. As with any Jupiter Venus transit, this can bring
laziness and self indulgent behavior. Most will experience this as a needed
break from the "daily grind". This is great energy for social
interactions, entertainment, and amusements. Romance and financial interests
are favored under this transit, along with traveling or taking a vacation the
begins at this time as it indicates that the journey will be fun, enlightening,
and rewarding. Due to the low energy of this transit, this is not the best time
to start any enterprise that requires a great deal of energy. Also on the 10th
the Cancer Moon supported by Neptune, in harmony with Venus, Jupiter, and
Mercury, and opposed by Pluto which changes from our innermost subconscious fantasies and daydreams confusing
reality, which may not be great for accomplishing much work, to wanting to be with friends and the people we
love,
followed by feeling in the flow and
having a sense of wholeness, and later brings deep emotions rising to the surface, and finally people
feeling chatty and having numerous conversations.
The 11th is 6 – Caban "kah-ban" or Earth:
being in the flow through gratitude for
Mother Earth, while the Moon in Cancer in harmony with the Sun and challenged
by Uranus which moves from feeling balance between
our inner and outer worlds, to later folks
acting hasty and jumping to conclusions that may not be correct.
May
12th is
7 Etznab
"etz-nob" or Flint: reflection through being introspective, with Mercury trine
Pluto,
which can bring concern about the deeper issues in life. This has people
wanting to dig below the surface to uncover mysteries. On a personal level this
can be excellent for inner work, so it might be a good day for some "alone
time" to discover some of the deeper dimensions of your psyche. Communications
may seem rather serious and profound. Thoughts will be more focused and gain
insights about important developments. Also on the 12th the Leo Moon finds
support from Mars and Saturn, and is challenged by Venus, which shifts from feeling a little more confident than usual with
the ability to assert ourselves in a positive manner, followed by having a sober realistic view of life, and finally having pleasant energy to be with friends and
loved ones.
The 13th is 8 – Cauac
"cow-ack" or Storm: balance through recognizing the gifts in adversity, while Mercury conjunct Venus which stimulates our appreciation of beauty, whether it be
art, poetry, music, people, or nature. In Taurus people may be more likely to be
practical in expressing their love for others. This is a merging of the mental
and emotional realms within ourselves, so folks may experience concepts with
emotions or express feelings in an intellectual manner. This is wonderful for
creativity or any type of artistic expression. This transit can be favorable
for financial and business dealings, along with scientific research by seeing
patterns in the universe and appreciating them aesthetically. Also on the 13th Venus trines Pluto which is a day when we might hear from or contemplate
contacting a former lover. With Pluto involved this intensifies our emotional
expression, as emotions come to the surface that can now be meaningfully
expressed to your loved ones. This alignment deepens our emotions and can make
relationships intense. It's quite likely people will feel love more strongly
under this transit and express those feelings to the object of their affection.
Sexual desires also increase under the Venus Pluto connection. This is not an
intellectual experience, but rather love expressed through mind, body, and
emotions. This transit can produce profound insights that reveal the inner
workings of our relationships. Beginning a relationship during this transit
indicates that the connection will feel quite intense as if being drawn
together by some magical power. This can be a good relationship as long as the
couple recognizes that the compulsive quality will wear off before the pairing
solidifies into a long term relationship. This transit is great for artistic
work because the emotional intensity characteristic can be harnessed in work
that reveals the inner depth of the artist's soul. Also on the 13th
the first quarter Moon in Leo is challenged by Mercury and the Sun, and
supported by Uranus, which changes from folks being critical in their communications particularly with the
people they have intimate relationships with, to later having the impulse to engage in activities that make us feel more
alive,
and finally we encounter challenges
to our daily routines.
May
14th is
9 – "ah-how" : patience
experienced through honoring the wisdom and memory of
our ancestors, with the Virgo Moon challenged by Mars which
brings the potential for people to be irritable and have needless disputes.
The 15th
is 10 – Imix "e-meesh" or Crocodile:
manifestation through nurturing new beginnings, with the Sun sextiles
Chiron which illuminates wounds to allow healing. Also on the 15th the Moon in
Virgo is opposed by Neptune, merges with Jupiter, is challenged by Saturn, and
supported by Mercury, Pluto, and Venus, which brings a busy day of emotional
stimulus that begins with feeling
sensitive emotionally but confused regarding the accuracy of what's being felt, then moves to good feelings and generosity towards others, followed by people feeling lonely or isolated, then later feeling in touch with our emotions and
expressing them to others,
followed by feeling on a deeper more
intense level,
and finally enjoying pleasant
feelings and social interactions.
May
16th is 11 – Ik "eek" or Wind: resolution through communication,
while the Moon is supported by the Sun, and stimulated by Mars which shifts
from feeling a sense of inner harmony which is
mirrored in the outside world, to later brings
the desire to work independently from others.
The 17th is 12
– Akbal "awk-bol" or Night: understanding
through contemplating the stars, with the
Libra Moon in harmony with Saturn which influences people to wanting to be alone in their thoughts and feelings.
May 18th is 13
– Kan "con" or Seed or Lizard: movement to the next stage through planting seeds and making new connections, with the Moon in
Libra challenged by Pluto and opposed by Uranus which begins with having the compulsion to act in ways that may
not be good for us in the long run, then later changes to folks acting emotionally excitable and impulsive.
So no matter what energies are affecting you during this 1 Road trecena, take some time to be in the flow of the planet
by being in nature, watching a sunrise or sunset, communing with the stars,
being conscious of the moment through introspection, meditation or being with
someone you love. Every day is a blessing no matter what dramas beckon to
distract us. We are all giving the performance of a life time on this world
stage, just take some time to observe the play as well as act your part.
Remember you are a spiritual being having a human experience.
