Astrological calendar

May 2002

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. 4 Saturday

    Last Quarter in Aquarius

    04:16 AM · Brasília time

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

  2. 12 Sunday

    New Moon in Taurus

    07:45 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. 13 Monday

    Neptune stations retrograde in Aquarius

    09:42 AM · Brasília time

    Seen from Earth, the planet stops and moves backwards: a period of review for the themes it rules. Retrograde is not punishment — it is the second pass over the same subject.

  4. 15 Wednesday

    Mercury stations retrograde in Gemini

    03:51 PM · Brasília time

    Seen from Earth, the planet stops and moves backwards: a period of review for the themes it rules. Retrograde is not punishment — it is the second pass over the same subject.

  5. 19 Sunday

    First Quarter in Leo

    04:42 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.

  6. 20 Monday

    Venus enters Cancer

    10:26 AM · Brasília time

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

  7. 21 Tuesday

    Sun enters Gemini

    02:29 AM · Brasília time

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

  8. 26 Sunday

    Eclipse Lunar penumbral in Sagittarius

    09:03 AM · Brasília time

    A Full Moon intensified by the Earth’s shadow: culmination and emotional turning point. What was ripe shows up all at once.

    Saros 111 · previous in the series: May 1984

  9. 28 Tuesday

    Mars enters Cancer

    08:42 AM · Brasília time

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

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.
