Astrological calendar

May 2013

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. 1 Wednesday

    Mercury enters Taurus

    12:36 PM · Brasília time

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

  2. 2 Thursday

    Last Quarter in Aquarius

    08:14 AM · Brasília time

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

  3. 9 Thursday

    Venus enters Gemini

    12:03 PM · Brasília time

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

    Eclipse Solar annular in Taurus

    09:25 PM · Brasília time

    A New Moon with the nodal axis activated: the Moon covers the Sun. In the tradition, a restart of this size moves structure, not detail — and the effect is counted in months, not days.

    Saros 138 · previous in the series: April 1995

  4. 15 Wednesday

    Mercury enters Gemini

    05:40 PM · Brasília time

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

  5. 18 Saturday

    First Quarter in Leo

    01:35 AM · 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

    Sun enters Gemini

    06:09 PM · Brasília time

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

  7. 25 Saturday

    Eclipse Lunar penumbral in Sagittarius

    01:10 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.

  8. 31 Friday

    Mercury enters Cancer

    04:06 AM · Brasília time

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

    Mars enters Gemini

    07:38 AM · Brasília time

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

    Last Quarter in Pisces

    03:58 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.
