THE DAILY PLANET ~ MONDAY MAY 3RD: Today as Luna flies through the friendly skies of Aquarius, the sign of highest intellectual frequencies, Mercury the planet of thought and communication will change signs. The Aquarius Moon spends the day nurturing our authentic selves, and our most liberated expression, which inevitably guides us to our true feelings and needs. Late this afternoon at 3:08 PM EDT, the Aquarius Moon merges forces with Saturn, inviting us to commit to our inner liberation and our most soulful goals.

Late tonight at 10:49 PM EDT, Mercury, the messenger leaves earthy Taurus, dons his winged sandals and glides onto the stimulating air currents of Gemini, where he will retrograde at the end of the month.  Mercury is extremely comfortable while in Gemini, one of his home signs, inspiring us to entertain a variety of ideas and intellectual pursuits with clarity of mind and swiftness of action. Mercury will be illuminating all that we will need to carefully reconsider, starting on May 29th when he stations retrograde in the sign of the twins. Mercury will keep us looking inward and backward, inspiring a recalibration of mental and emotional patterns, along with some reversals of ideas, beliefs, plans and communication projects. 

It’s a beautiful day to tune our receivers to the highest frequencies of thought. Use this time before the retrograde to elevate patterns of thought, by aligning with Universal Truths and seeking the guidance of Divine Intelligence that can always be relied upon. Meditation is the technology that attunes us to Divine Brilliance. Be still. Go within. Listen for Divine Guidance and learn.
