General Daily Insight
by Rick Levine | powered by Tarot.com
These last few days of the Sun's visit to earthy Taurus are especially nice. Regardless of troubles that have been at our door, everything is looking better today. Sweet Venus, the key planet for Taurus, forms a magical trine with opulent Jupiter, bringing good news about love and money. Additionally, Venus harmonizes with electric Uranus, adding the element of surprise to our day that would normally be held in check by the strong-willed Scorpio Moon.

Judgment
What has traditionally been known as the Judgement card, sometimes entitled Resurrection, represents the great reunion that the ancients believed would happen once in every age. This was the time when souls are harvested and taken Home to their place of origin, outside the solar system. Then the World is seeded with a batch of new souls and the process starts over.
From a modern point of view, this great reunion -- which includes every personality that you have ever been and every soul that you have done deep work with -- reunites to consciously complete the process. In a way, we symbolically celebrate this returning to center every year on our birthday.
In personal terms, the Judgment cards points to freedom from inner conflicts, and so clear a channel, that the buried talents and gifts of past incarnations can come through an individual in this lifetime. This card counsels you to trust the process of opening yourself, because what emerges is of consistently high quality. You can effortlessly manifest as a multi-dimensional being, and assist in evoking that response from others.

Monthly Forecast for May 2008
Powered by Tarot.com
Greater Clarity Leads to New, Exciting Paths
May begins on a serious note as Venus, the planet of love, hooks up with heavy Saturn and Pluto. This is excellent for getting clarity in relationships by getting down to the bottom line about what we want and need and what were willing to give to get it. Happily, we then can enjoy the pleasure of Venus in earthy, sensual Taurus until May 24. The New Moon on May 5 also occurs in the sign of the Bull to bring our attention to material matters and financial concerns. This is an excellent time to begin saving or a conservation project of some kind. Proper management of resources for the benefit of the planet and for our individual well-being is favored with the Sun in this down to earth sign. The practical and sometimes plodding side of Taurus doesn't stand in the way of growth as expansive Jupiter, the planet of opportunity, aligns harmoniously with the New Moon. This provides a positive framework for setting and meeting realistic goals. Mental Mercury, the planet of communication, gets fresh ideas flowing and facilitates contacts with new people when it enters chatty Gemini on May 2. However, the flow of ideas associated with this pair will be slower than usual due to Mercury's change of direction on May 26. This begins its three-week retrograde cycle that complicates travel, details and technology, and scrambles messages. It's important to be extra careful to avoid making costly errors during this period of time. Mars, the planet of action and methods, fires into expressive Leo on the 9th. We are motivated by pride, a greater need for recognition, and the playful joy of creativity. While this can add fun to life and imagination to our activities, a slight tone of arrogance is possible. Make sure that your enthusiasm doesn't turn an innocent suggestion into an abrasive-sounding command. Brilliant ideas explode around May 12 when the Sun forms positive connections with visionary Jupiter and inventive Uranus. This can be an exceptional time for innovation, and even if you can't change your world as it is, it will widen your view of its meaning and of your future in it. The Full Moon on May 19 carries a heavy emotional charge as the simple Taurus Sun opposes an emotionally complex Scorpio Moon. Strong feelings may emerge that can upset the balance in relationships. There's no benefit to being mean to others, but honesty can be a bitter medicine that heals a personal wound. The Sun's entry into flexible Gemini lightens the atmosphere on May 20 with more delightful breezes to come when sociable Venus joins this playful sign on the 24th. Our minds are opening to see options we hadn't noticed before. Alternative paths to fun and fulfillment, even to money, provide new choices. Still, with Gemini's ruling planet Mercury in reverse gear, it's best to select carefully, rather than allowing impulsiveness to lead us down roads that are heading the wrong way. Don't be too proud to ask for directions to avoid wasting precious time.
