Astrological calendar

May 2040

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. 2 Wednesday

    Mars enters Leo

    09:08 AM · Brasília time

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

  2. 3 Thursday

    Last Quarter in Aquarius

    05:00 PM · Brasília time

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

  3. 9 Wednesday

    Mercury enters Gemini

    10:51 AM · Brasília time

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

  4. 11 Friday

    Eclipse Solar partial in Taurus

    12:41 AM · 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 119 · previous in the series: April 2022

  5. 15 Tuesday

    Uranus enters Leo

    07:26 PM · Brasília time

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

  6. 18 Friday

    Jupiter stations direct in Virgo

    01:01 AM · Brasília time

    The planet stations and returns to direct motion: what was under review starts moving again, now with what was learned along the way.

  7. 19 Saturday

    First Quarter in Leo

    04:01 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.

  8. 20 Sunday

    Sun enters Gemini

    06:55 AM · Brasília time

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

  9. 22 Tuesday

    Venus enters Gemini

    03:05 PM · Brasília time

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

  10. 26 Saturday

    Eclipse Lunar total in Sagittarius

    08:44 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 131 · previous in the series: May 2022

  11. 27 Sunday

    Pluto stations retrograde in Aquarius

    09:35 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.

    Mercury enters Cancer

    05:43 PM · 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.
