Saturday, May 16, 2020: Today may offer us a few quick glimpses of reality interspersed with waves of emotion, confusion, and disillusionment. The real challenges we face today are in recognizing and collecting the raw materials that will be necessary in order to rebuild our sense of stability. Our goals and aims may seem to have been stunted by this week’s shifts — the retrogrades of Saturn, Venus, and Jupiter. However, the Universe has given us important opportunities to retrace our steps and review our options before proceeding. If we are simply bored or discouraged by the slow-downs, we won’t be properly motivated to take advantage of what there is all around us. Perhaps it may only look to us like wreckage but there are, in fact, gems at hand to be salvaged.

Sunday, May 17, 2020: There is courage, insight, and optimism in today’s atmosphere. In fact, we find the potential for great heights of achievement. However, today’s good fortune must be recognized and used effectively — the effort is required but not actually forced or demanded. Prodigality and recklessness could easily lead to the squandering of today’s opportunities. The creativity and innovation that is available here are down-to-earth, not flashy or ground-breaking. Restriction or a lack of resources may actually lead to simple but remarkable breakthroughs, something similar to “necessity is the mother of invention”.
