Astrological calendar

May 1940

Every New and Full Moon, every eclipse with its Saros family, every retrograde and every sign change — in Brasília time, computed with precision ephemerides validated against NASA’s catalogue.

  1. 6 Monday

    Venus enters Cancer

    03:46 PM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

    Mercury enters Taurus

    06:13 PM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  2. 7 Tuesday

    New Moon in Taurus

    09:07 AM · Brasília time

    Sun and Moon meet at the same degree: one cycle closes and another begins in the dark. The classic moment to plant intention — not to harvest results.

  3. 14 Tuesday

    First Quarter in Leo

    05:51 PM · Brasília time

    A week after the seed, the first tension: what was planted meets the real world. It is a course correction, not a surrender.

  4. 16 Thursday

    Jupiter enters Taurus

    04:53 AM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  5. 17 Friday

    Mars enters Cancer

    11:46 AM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  6. 21 Tuesday

    Sun enters Gemini

    02:22 AM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

    Full Moon in Sagittarius

    10:33 AM · Brasília time

    Sun and Moon on opposite sides of the sky: maximum light on what had been growing. What was implicit becomes visible — in feeling, in outcome, in conversation.

    Mercury enters Gemini

    10:58 AM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  7. 28 Tuesday

    Last Quarter in Pisces

    09:40 PM · Brasília time

    The light wanes: time to harvest what served and release what did not. A conscious closing before the next cycle.

What this means for your chart

The calendar is the same for everyone; the effect is not. Each event lands in a different house of your chart — and that is what changes what it asks of you.
