The theme for May is “Opportunity”

The influences this month, although still pushing personal growth, transformation and change, ease up a bit in their intensity and bring many opportunities for creating, recreating, healing the past, establishing new connections and getting personal clarity about the future. Even if you feel that you are not yet “regrouped” (last month’s theme), you will have numerous opportunities to do so this month.

Opportunity will show up differently for each person depending on where you are in your life and what you are dealing with, trying to change, attempting to reinvent etc. If it is health you are focused on, the opportunity to support yourself in a different way or to change your beliefs or be inspired by a new discipline may become available. If you are dealing with relationship issues, opportunity for healing and resolution may show up. If you are intending to increase your prosperity, raise your self-esteem or start a new endeavor or make a major change in your life, opportunity may present options for you to consider.

It is best to treat this month as an opportunity to ground yourself into what the next phase of your life wants to be. The questions to ask at the beginning of the month where an open-hearted energy supports heart-felt intentions are: “How do I want to ultimately feel about my life? Who can I rely on for support? What relationships do I wish to nurture and which ones do I need to set better boundaries around? What kind of environment do I wish to be surrounded by? Where, with whom and on what do I want to spend my energy on?”

Opportunity is a field that opens doors and brings in a potential for a new experience in a new landscape. In order to take advantage of what this month has to offer, fear, anxiety, worry, attachment, and the tendency to overthink and be in control must be eliminated to the best of our ability. There is a good exercise for this on our monthly support audio.

How the month shows up:

YOU PERSONALLY

Where do you feel stuck? It is time to eliminate the sludge of resistance and fear and look towards a healthy and proactive focus on what you want for your future. As you open yourself up to possibilities and are willing to consider alternatives to what you are accustomed to, remember to be flexible and open to doing and thinking in new ways. Fear, worry and anxiety can restrict expansion and flow. If you can redirect that energy and channel more positive flow into your life, you will open yourself up to more potential and more opportunity. Consider all the aspects of your life that you wish to bring more opportunity into. Then set intentions to open those fields. You could end this month in a very positive place provided you have the courage, will and sense of adventure to take advantage of what comes your way.

RELATIONSHIPS

Relationships are always an area that promotes personal growth as well as acting as a mirror for internal emotional activity. This month you can ask if you are satisfied with your relationships the way they are or if you would welcome opportunity to deepen current important ones, eliminate with neutrality and grace the ones that need to be complete, heal the ones that need healing (including your relationship with yourself), reconnect with past relationships that are appropriate, or bring in new ones especially ones you have agreements with.

There are influences this month that can bring up challenging reactions that may not be conducive to harmonious interactions so you will need to pay close attention to projections from others as well as your own reactions that may be triggered by past wounds. Especially around the full moon this month, you may find that some undigested past emotion will worm its way in and you will need to neutralize it before it leads you down the path of resentment or martyrdom. Clean up your communication, strengthen your boundaries, and welcome some spontaneity and adventure in discovering new connections that are aligned in values and vision.

HEALTH AND THE PHYSICAL BODY

We always say that the body is our barometer and will tell us exactly what we need to pay attention to. The body is also the densest energetically so often the last to get with the program of progress, improvement and raising vibration. There is resistance in the body personality towards change as well as an occasional need to digest emotional material in a very physical way. The challenges this month are around digestion, energy levels and joints. You can assist your body in this process by not taking on emotion or suffering from others (undigestible) as well as making sure you create opportunities for yourself to move physically to get the flow going.

There is lot to be processed and feeling overwhelmed is inevitable. You will need to rely on your support, both seen and unseen. Talk to your body and pay attention to your emotions. Don’t project on others and protect yourself with good boundaries. The opportunity this month is to end up with a really good container of disciplined self-care that you feel satisfied with.

BUSINESS PARTNERSHIPS AND PROJECTS

Opportunity, opportunity, opportunity! However, you will need to watch being overly naïve, impulsive or cautious. There is a fine line that includes balance, inner intuition, trust and pragmatism that needs to go into your choices and decisions around the opportunities that present themselves regarding business and projects, especially new ones. Think it through before you prune too much of your current structure if you are in the process of restructuring. Make sure you have a good container set up for any new endeavor and then go for it. Especially towards the end of the month, there is quite a bit of support for moving forward and taking action where situations may have felt a bit sluggish.

Never make a decision out of fear. A sense of adventure and a little risk taking will support you stepping into a new inspiring, exciting project. Make sure you have the right people and good resources to follow through. An aspect of this month is continuing to review where you spend your energy and where you want to spend your energy. Identifying any leaks will help you to fortify and support a new direction if that is your intention.

ENVIRONMENT

As always, the environment mirrors what is being processed emotionally and gives us what we need as a way to support change and transformation. Since the opportunities this month may include location changes, travel, and new experiences, flexibility and paying attention to the environment will be important. Honor change and transformation by initiating changes in your environment. If you have planted the same thing year after year in your garden, try something different this year.

What part of your environment feels unstable and could use more grounding and stability? It may sound like a paradox but knowing where things are in your physical space will give you sense of grounding despite the need for spontaneity, change and keeping things flexible. Decluttering not only your mind of unnecessary worry, but also your space of unnecessary clutter will help to keep yousaner in these times.

Watch for high winds and erratic water events. Make friends with the elements so you can harness their power instead of being in resistance.

DATES AND TIME FRAMES

May 1-7

The month starts out with supportive influences for creative inspiration. It is an open-hearted time where intentions can be set for what you wish to improve in your life. Opportunity shows up in relationships where you can rely on your friendships and loved ones to have your back and support your dreams.

Your inner process is still in reflection of what needs to continue to change, to evolve and to transform. What is your medicine and how is it manifesting in the world? What patterns do you still need to rework or release in order to move forward with authenticity? Take this opportunity to connect more deeply with your self-worth and to focus on what good habits and practices can support your personal well-being. What you set up for yourself in these first few days will set the container for the rest of the month.

May 8-15

This is a good window of time tothink things through practically and with a clear mind. You may need to declutter your thoughts especially if they are fraught with worry and anxiety. The opportunity to move beyond fear and into a higher vibration of positive thinking is available to you at this time. Contemplate what supports your comfort and grounding as you may encounter uncomfortable, unstable energy as old patterns surface and trigger reactions. If you find yourself there, take time out and allow for some deep processing, insights, healing and clarity. Reach into that part of yourself that “knows” what you need to manifest your desires.

You may have days during this time, especially around the full moon, where the focus goes to releasing and letting go. We feel like we have been emphasizing this theme for months now however it is the work that needs to be done before we can truly move on. So take a deep breath and let go of those last attachments to the past whether they are wounds, successes, identities, relationships, past dreams, regrets, disappointments, and anything unresolved that feels like a heavy burden.

May 12: Full Moon in Scorpio is Monday, May 12 at 10:55 AM Mountain Daylight Time. This full moon comes with slightly heated energy that can get channeled in inappropriate ways if you are not careful. If you find yourself triggered, take time out to process and acknowledge responsibility for your experience instead of projecting blame onto others. Use the heat to heal something that needs to be healed and take advantage of the support to go deep both in clearing as well as insights into yourself and your path. If you are restless, be patient but take action when it is clear to do so. Exercise the body and make sure to focus some on your spiritual life, strengthening your practices, perhaps even anchoring something new. Watch for opportunities and acknowledge them when they do show up.

May 16-23

This time frame is focused on finding your inner strength and personal power through digesting and assimilating the challenges you have been through and the lessons you have learned along the way. Your personal growth, especially in relationships, is your task master and it is time to reap the rewards of your hard work and discipline. The time is marked also by an uplifted heart energy that feeds good self-esteem and requires a commitment to confidence and trust in self and spirit.

There is some positive energy to be had toward prosperity, finances and more abundance coming in as you open to more potential and opportunity. Work with your creativity, your hands and your higher mind. It is a good time for new insights and fresh enthusiasm for projects and direction. Just don’t overdo it and take yourself into overwhelm. Baby steps are always the best method to get anywhere without burnout.

May 24-31

This is the beginning of an important cycle setting up a container for using will, discipline, power and maturity to show up authentically and with commitment and a new confidence, problem solving abilities and maybe even a new direction. It is a marriage of inner desires and pragmatic manifestation. There is a quality of ‘all systems go’ that could lead to impatience and impulsiveness, however, we welcome this flow especially around areas where there has been a constipated or constricted energy.

Watch for insights where new ideas and thinking differently could influence positive change. Nurture your intuition, acknowledge your values and the strength of your resolve, and make a bid for power around something you have been intending to initiate. Rely on your support and remember to bring in balance, trust, and of course, the “don’t know mind”.
