[Fate & Free Will ] Astrology for the Week of May 6 - 12

This is one of the best months of the year. Work hard towards your goals in sustainable and BIG ways, whatever that means for you, because this is one of those periods of time where hard work really does pay off - often in surprising ways.

The trick will be to be purposeful and methodical just like you would be if you were planting a garden. You’d never (successfully) grow a field of food if you just tossed some seeds out on the grass and hoped for the best. 

(for those of you who know I don’t ever work with plants, shush)

The point is, I’ve read Little House on the Prairie and it’s time to make hay while the Sun shines to prepare for the Long Winter.

Tuesday you’ll have greater access to the optimism and fortitude to get all of the things done. This is not the time to Netflix and chill.

At 11:21 pm eastern we have the Taurus New Moon - which is possibly the best New Moon of the entire year.

It’s time for a significant new beginning that encourages planting seeds for future growth, particularly in areas that require patience and dedication. 

Over the next two weeks, you might find that responsibilities feel more pressing, urging you to define clear boundaries and set realistic goals. 

Embrace the chance to start fresh, prioritizing stability and thoroughness in your endeavors. It’s perfect for committing to plans that require sustained effort and care.

Seriously, work your horns off for the next two weeks for whatever it is you most want to create. The payoff won’t be instantaneous for most people but the harvest should be substantial.

Sunday is really nice in a  summer picnic and berry cobbler kind of way.

It’s perfect for reaching out and connecting with friends, family, or colleagues. There’s a strong foundation of support, making it easier to catch up or get ahead on any chores at home or work projects.

Until next time, my wish for you is sustainable prosperity. -Robin💋
