Sagittarius Horoscope for May 2012

This is an important as well as a confusing time, Sagittarius. You are in motion, no doubt about that, and your life as well, and the question becomes wither and to what end. The potential conflict lies between moving ahead with what you truly believe versus business as usual, which seems safer, at least in the short haul. You are filled with a kind of fever for forward momentum and must beware of mindless milling about, especially since the core basis of your psychological security seems an empty page, like trying to walk on thin air. Partners help you by standing firm but the ultimate decision on where you are heading is uncomfortably your own. When you think about your path from the standpoint of its eventual end point the choice becomes clear.

As the month begins, you have the world in mind, with all its joys together with its responsibilities. You are very service-oriented now, and with one part of your psyche caught up in the day-to-day, but there is a strong pull to a more idealistic way of seeing things which is at right-angles to life in the horizontal framework of the purely physical plane. There is great confusion at the very heart of your experience, at least potentially, which could manifest also as self-deception regarding home, family or tribe. This is symbolized otherworldly Neptune being strongly emphasized in your sector of home environment and your psychological roots, the basis for feelings of security and comfort. If you imagine the medieval picture of the man with his head outside of normal waking existence while he peers out at cosmic circles and wheels spinning out in space you get the idea. The temptation is to let down the curtain and resume normal activities, but once glimpsed the scene is difficult to disregard and nags at your poor reality-oriented brain until it wants to collapse from the tension. The way through is to acknowledge the essential paradox of your situation and to recognize that we live in an essentially magical universe, swept about by cosmic forces of which we have almost no real understanding and even less control, and then proceed as though everything was normal and peachy-keen. Once you have done your best then you cannot fault yourself so that there is no need to keep on worrying about how it will come out in the end. With the Full Moon of Saturday, May 5th, you are entering a peaceful plateau of time, not as frantic, when you are even more tuned in to your inner world, and it somehow all seems to make sense. You have a proclivity for overly energized or even accident-prone activity but there are factors of solidity operating also that can serve to ameliorate these tendencies. You are also in touch with inner wounding, stemming from early trauma, which could result in upset unless you can grant acceptance to the past and move beyond its effects in your present day existence. The Last Quarter Moon that comes along a week later, taking place on Saturday, May 12th, represents a thoughtful time. This is the phase within the lunation cycle when you have the opportunity to reflect on where you are headed and how you can best take the lessons of your recent experience forward into a new mandate. With the Moon entering your fourth sector this could be a time of powerful and helpful dreams. You are perhaps stronger now in your determination to get it right this time around, and as well feeling the limitation of reality requirements that could necessitate adjustments. It helps if you can just take the hint and go quietly rather than, like a spoiled child at bedtime, kicking and screaming all the way. The New Moon and Solar Eclipse of Sunday, May 20th is a strong moment and takes place in your opposite sign of Gemini, bringing partnership with others more firmly into the picture and giving fresh energy to this important area. With Venus turning to retrograde motion and as well aspecting Saturn, there are definite restrictions and reality tests on interpersonal connections of all kinds, especially significant partnerships, but this concrete focus also implies bonding. You are very aware of physical limitations of all kinds, and in arriving at your considered judgment of where you are actually heading with your life, employing this factor as a determinant.
