may 2026

Last month’s aries stellium, and this month’s scorpio moon was surely… something. I feel like garbage, but there is an end to my suffering in sight. I just had to move out of a mold infested house into somewhere much better. I didn’t realize the mold detox process was so intense and I’ve been headachey and tired.

While I don’t have it in me to write a whole transit rundown for the rest of the month, here’s what I can point out to ya.

On May 17th, Mercury will ingress into Gemini and by the 20th, Venus, Mars, and the Sun will join Mercury in it’s home. I’m looking forward to some increased cognitive juice. While in the sign of Gemini, these planets will encourage you to be curious and playful, embrace the messiness of the process, and explore the world around you. Lean towards what gives you energy and excitement.

While this can be very effusive and fun energy, it’s not lost on me that we’re seeing another airborne pandemic on the horizon while there’s a Gemini stellium in the sky. If you haven’t been masking, consider doing it again. If you have been masking, share resources on why. Support your local clean air clubs and mask blocs!

I wish I had spoons for more but this is the most important transit of the month (imo). I will be teaching a class tomorrow and next Tuesday on sacred rage with Minka, you can get more info and sign up here. https://www.minkabrooklyn.com/calendar2/sacred-rage-understanding-of-planet-mars-in-natal-chart-with-astra-april-2026
