Astro-logical Forecast for Tuesday 5/7/2013: A Restless Chill

East Coasters, the fired-up Aries Moon may inspire you to rise with great enthusiasm, but be advised that Moon goes void at 8:40AM ET on a jovial connection with Jupiter. All dressed up with no place to go? Let the enthusiasm carry you on a marvelous drift of a day, and roll with whatever twists may hamper efforts to move forward in a straight line. Rolling is a better strategy than a typical Moon in Aries response, and here I would be thinking of the madness at the Trader Joe’s on West 72nd Street last night, where hundreds of dangerously self-absorbed shoppers jostled each other in the aisles.

The wandering sensation of the typical Moon void may be augmented the balsamic phase (the end)  of the lunar cycle. The Moon has little light; hence, a sense of listlessness or restlessness, as we sense there is something new just around the corner, but we don’t know what. Use this time to wrap up projects initiated at the New Moon last month and think about your agenda for the next cycle, which begins Thursday at 8:28PM ET. This Taurus New Moon is also an eclipse — more on that later in the week.

Meanwhile, some interesting news from underground, as anticipated by an easy a connection between mental Mercury and Pluto, lord of the Underworld: three women who disappeared a decade ago have been found in Cleveland; three men have been arrested. And — look out East Coast —  after 17 years, the cicadas are beginning to emerge from their underground hideaways…what else will be brought to light on this day? Lastly, note the potential for impassioned, inflamed, stubborn communication around 8:33PM ET, when mental Mercury and aggressive Mars hook up in earthy, possessive Taurus. Be nice and share your toys.
