WEDNESDAY, 5/4/2022

The moon enters Cancer today, giving us a chance to dream big if we don’t let our anxieties hold us back. Before we try to conquer the world, we must first conquer our fears. Stop thinking so hard. Acknowledge your worries, then squash them. Be bold and brave. Try not to be combative.

All the hours you’ve been putting into your professional endeavors are finally paying off. But you’re exhausted and in need of some “me” time. Take a moment away from your computer and the demands of work to smell the roses and recharge your batteries.

Another way to embrace today’s lunar energy is to believe in your dreams, no matter what. Dream big, with the knowledge that your ship will come in with time. You’re setting your sights high right now, but to avoid disappointment down the road, try to be practical in your decisions. Conquering the world sounds fun and exciting, but you might want to start small first.

And don’t put all of your cards on the table today. Your overly optimistic attitude could cause you to bet big when it comes to love. But you might be in love with the idea of love and overlooking flaws in your existing partnerships. Take off those rose-colored glasses so you can see your boo clearly.

The ground is not nearly as steady as we may think it is. Mental and intellectual ability is nearly off the charts but we could quickly get ahead of ourselves. With strong intuition and carefully laid groundwork, we just might navigate this atmosphere relatively unscathed but we should be extremely careful not to rely too much on any element. As well, we may believe that we have all of our ‘ducks’ linked up but, in the next few weeks, discover that they have been pointed in the wrong direction. Adding to the challenges, the Moon goes void-of-course this afternoon, from 1:36 PM PDT until 4:04 PM PDT. Ultimately, we just need to be paying attention and remaining flexible. To some extent, trusting the process to take us where we’re supposed to go, is the only real stability that we will find here — but it is indeed a most powerful approach.
