THIS WEEK IN ASTROLOGY. ...
Cafe Astrology .com Cafe Astrology .com Home Shop Horoscopes Site Map Search This Week in Astrology This Week in Astrology is updated every Saturday and includes the week’s Moon phase, planets in signs and aspects, retrogrades, this week’s astrology calendar, the current void-of-course Moon tables and timing advice, and Daily Trends interpretations. March 15, 2018 / This Week in Astrology This Week in Astrology: March 18 to 24, 2018 March 18 to 24, 2018 On this Page: This week’s Moon phase Planets in signs and aspect Retrogrades This week’s astrology calendar Timing with the Moon Romance & Relationship Report Daily Trends   First Quarter Moon The FIRST QUARTER MOON occurs on Saturday, March 24, 2018, at 11:35 AM EDT. The First Quarter Moon occurs on Saturday when the Sun in Aries forms a square with the Cancer Moon. There is a crisis theme surrounding any quarter Moon phase, as we feel compelled to take action. Shortly after, we are made aware of how our actions affect those close to us, perhaps through trial and error. Whatever project or initiative we began around the New Moon on March 17th is now off the ground, and it may face its first obstacles.  First Quarter Moon Chart: March 24, 2018 This phase of the Moon occurs at 3 degrees and 57 minutes of Cancer square the Sun at 3 degrees and 57 minutes of Aries, affecting people born with personal planets and points at approximately 2 to 6 degrees of the Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn) most significantly.  A New Moon occurred on Saturday, March 17th, 2018, at 9:11 AM EDT. Early Saturday, a new cycle began. The Aquarius New Moon cycle ended and the Pisces New Moon cycle began. The New Moon in Pisces is a good time to commit to personal goals that express the positive energies of the sign of the Fish. These include taking a leap of faith, accepting imperfections in ourselves and in others as a different kind of “perfection”, starting a project that requires imagination and visualization skills, consciously putting time aside for peaceful and rejuvenating activities, and sharing a dream with another. With this potent Pisces energy, we have the chance to make important changes in our lives. This New Moon is especially creative and ambitious with its trine to Jupiter and (wide) sextile to Pluto. While we are likely to feel very inspired, and this New Moon can motivate us to take a leap of faith, we should watch for impatience and impulsive moves, since the lunation is also square to Mars, which is on the verge of changing signs and is thus especially vulnerable/volatile. Words can sting now, although they can also prompt a “turning over a new leaf” moment and fuel a new beginning. The Sun/Moon also form a semi-sextile to Uranus, and we can struggle a little with the idea of going our own way and being independent. While we want these things, it can be difficult to integrate these urges into our personalities or to act upon them consistently.  New Moon in Pisces Chart: March 17, 2018 This phase of the Moon occurred at 26 degrees and 53 minutes of Pisces, affecting people born with personal planets and points at approximately 22 to 30 degrees of the Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces) and 0 to 1 degree of the Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn) most significantly. Moon Phase Cycle: Bigger Picture Mar 17, 2018, 9:11 AM Sun Conjunct Moon (New Moon) Mar 24, 2018, 11:35 AM Sun Square Moon (First Quarter Moon) Mar 31, 2018, 8:37 AM Sun opposition Moon (Full Moon) Apr 8, 2018, 3:17 AM Sun Square Moon (Last Quarter Moon) Apr 15, 2018, 9:57 PM Sun Conjunct Moon (New Moon) (Times are Eastern) The Sun is in Pisces until March 20th, when the Sun enters Aries; Mercury is in Aries; Venus is in Aries; Mars is in Capricorn. The Sun is in Pisces from February 18-March 20th. With the Sun in Pisces, we are guided by altruistic feelings. We are less motivated to do than we are to feel, imagine, and dream. A “what will be, will be” attitude reigns, and we are guided by a sense of universal correlations. Pisces rules empathy, selfless love, devotion, and wisdom. Its shadow side rules self-pity, a feeling of being victimized by life, passivity, and elusiveness. The Sun is in Aries from March 20-April 19th. In Aries, the Sun is enthusiastic and spontaneous. We are motivated by the desire to conquer. We are more impulsive, and we have the urge to initiate. Aries is a sign that bounces back quickly–there is little shame with Aries. It is brave and pioneering, and somewhat innocent. We are direct and rather uncomplicated in our needs, but we can also be short-sighted and lack the desire to plan ahead. Mercury is in Aries from March 6-May 13. When Mercury is in Aries, we are less concerned with objective viewpoints and explanations, and more concerned with reaching a decision…quickly! Our thoughts and ideas are pioneering, and we tend to speak more spontaneously and directly with the planet of communication in bold and assertive Aries. Venus is in Aries from March 6-31. In Aries, love is spontaneous and direct. The chase is very exciting to us under this fiery influence. We are bold, fresh, and a little impatient when it comes to matters of the heart. We don’t look back with Aries energy. We are not interested in saying sorry or dwelling on the past. It’s a brand new day! It’s time to make things work right now. Aries is known for a love of the chase and the conquest, but Aries love can be longstanding as long as it remains relatively fresh. Aries is blunt–there’s no sugar-coating with Aries. This can sting, but rarely is Aries energy mean or petty. Saying it like it is is important to Aries. Desires are strong and expressed spontaneously, enthusiastically, and directly. Aries prefers to seduce rather than be seduced, to chase rather than be chased. Mars is in Capricorn from March 17-May 16. Mars in Capricorn is deliberate, persistent energy. We consider the future and the consequences before taking action during this cycle. Our energy is reliable and faithful. We are slow to anger but can be quite cold if we are frustrated. The shadow side of Mars in Capricorn is rigidity.  Saturn transits Capricorn from December 19/20, 2017, to March 21, 2020; and then finishes up its transit from July 1 to December 17, 2020. Read about Saturn’s transit through Capricorn here.  Jupiter entered Scorpio on October 10th, 2017, and will remain in the sign until November 8th, 2018. Read about Jupiter in Scorpio transit here. Uranus entered Aries on March 11th, 2011, and will transit Aries until May 15, 2018, and then from November 6, 2018, to March 6, 2019. The urge to start fresh, to break free from restrictive attitudes or circumstances, to totally redesign an area of our lives (or even our personalities), and to gain freedom through independence is strong with Uranus in Aries. Mercury turns retrograde on March 22nd, 2018.  Mercury’s Retrograde Cycle in Aries from March 22-April 15, 2018 Mercury’s shadow period begins/enters Rx zone: March 8, 2018, at 4° Aries 47′ Mercury stations and turns retrograde: March 22, 2018, at 16° Aries 54′ Rx Mercury stations and turns direct: April 15, 2018, at 4° Aries 47′ Mercury ends its shadow period/leaves Rx zone: May 3, 2018, at 16° Aries 54′ Times are Eastern See also Mercury Retrograde, Retrogrades, and Retrogrades in the Natal Chart. Mercury is retrograde from March 22nd to April 15th. Mercury’s shadow period begins March 8th, 2018, and ends May 3rd, 2018. Note that Mercury’s post-retrograde shadow is generally better for new long-term endeavors than the pre-retrogrades shadow. For new enterprises in the pre-retrograde shadow, the venture’s secondary progressed Mercury will turn direction (retrograde) in the coming years, and this may not be ideal. Also note that things are most wonky on the days of the stations whether Mercury is turning retrograde OR direct (the start and end date of the retrograde cycle) as the shifts occur, after which we grow more accustomed to the energy. Mercury is retrograde approximately three times a year for approximately three weeks each time. As such, retrograde Mercury is a fairly common occurrence (Mercury is retrograde approximately 18% of the time). As the planet of communication, Mercury retrograde tends to breed a certain level of confusion. Mercury rules our “lower” mind–how we perceive and interpret information that we receive from our environment, and how we relay that information to others. Mercury has rulership over such things as speaking, negotiating, buying and selling, listening, formal contracts, documents, travel, the mail and shipping, and so forth. All of these areas of life are affected when Mercury is functioning in a sluggish state. Decision-making is challenged during Mercury retrograde. Needless to say, it is not advised to sign contracts, engage in important decision-making, or launch a new business. Delays and challenges are more probable with Mercury retrograde. It’s a time when being careless with money, our personal information, or paperwork can be costly. While Mercury is retrograde, we may be rethinking a previous opinion or idea. Looking to the signs and houses it transits can give clues as to what we may be reconsidering. There is absolutely a positive side to Mercury Retrograde. This period is best used for re-organizing and reflecting. We look at the world a little differently–through different filters–and can come up with some very important inner revelations. It may be difficult to communicate them under this influence, but not everything needs to be rationalized. Mercury retrograde periods can be times of heightened inner awareness, when meditation, benefiting from keeping a journal, reworking old plans, and reviewing past work are favored. Mercury retrograde is powerful for studies, particularly for returning to old studies or for re-learning or refreshing knowledge in a subject alrunication can actually re-connect us to other means of communication, such as when there is an unexpected power outage and we’re forced off the computer and television, finding different and often satisfying ways to entertain ourselves. It is important to note that there is absolutely no reason to suspend projects or anything of the sort during the Mercury Retrograde cycle. It’s not an ideal time to start new ones or to sign contracts, simply because a change of mind is quite likely once Mercury turns direct. However, it’s a fabulous time to do some “outside of the box” thinking. Acting on our ideas, however, might be best left for a Mercury Direct period. Pay close attention to what you say and communicate in general, particularly around the days of Mercury’s stations (March 22nd and April 15th), as well as around retrograde Mercury’s conjunction to the Sun on April 1st (midway between the start and end of the retro period). If you are itching to make a point with someone, especially, or if you are planning on “signing on the dotted line,” try to hold off. It is likely that you will have a change of mind once the station passes, and you can do some damage in the meantime. When a planet stations, its energies are very strong in our lives. When Mercury stations, communications have more impact, so that negative ones could have long-term implications at this time. However, if you are very clear within yourself and about what you are communicating, this can be a positive thing.  With Mercury retrograde in Aries: We might look at past decisions and ideas from a new, possibly enlightened perspective. This is a time for reconsidering an initiative or venture. It’s strong for returning to an old project or pursuit. It can be a time of tension, however, as Mercury in Aries wants immediate answers and retrograde Mercury can point to delays and indecision. The shortness of Mercury in Aries communications is magnified making it necessary to be especially careful with our choice of topics and wording. The chances of sharp or brusque comments doing some damage run high. We may be returning to past projects and refining or tweaking them. We can find usefulness in old or past ideas and recycle them in new ways, even though Mercury in Aries prefers the new to the old. We might consider renewing past ventures where we may have had false starts, but this should be done in a new way for things to work this time around. With Mercury in Aries, we prefer to learn from hands-on experience rather than instruction, and not listening during this Mercury retrograde period can be especially costly. Keep in mind that Mercury in Aries’ haste to communicate (or perhaps more accurately, to get communications out of the way) can work against us or can be more consequential during Mercury retrograde — there can be texts or emails sent to the wrong people, for example, or quick commentary that’s considered careless.

We are bold, fresh, and a little impatient when it comes to matters of the heart. We don’t look back with Aries energy. We are not interested in saying sorry or dwelling on the past. It’s a brand new day! It’s time to make things work right now. Aries is known for a love of the chase and the conquest, but Aries love can be longstanding as long as it remains relatively fresh. Aries is blunt–there’s no sugar-coating with Aries. This can sting, but rarely is Aries energy mean or petty. Saying it like it is is important to Aries. Desires are strong and expressed spontaneously, enthusiastically, and directly. Aries prefers to seduce rather than be seduced, to chase rather than be chased. This week: Sunday is strong for growth-focused interactions as well as for clarifications of feelings. However, keep in mind that these may come up for review at a later date. Friday can bring a bit of paranoia or suspicion to our love lives. Venus, the Goddess of Love: Highlights in the Coming Week: Venus in Aries March 6-31. Romance at the drop of a hat is part and parcel of the cycle you have just begun. Winning the hearts of others can be a challenge you’re eager to accept – and the thrill of the chase might be most of the fun. Is it the pursuit of happiness – or the happiness of pursuit? Venus trine North Node of the Moon March 17-18. We are more concerned about harmonizing and tend to be agreeable and cooperative. We could feel lucky in love, and we could meet someone who is good for us. Fortunate connections might be made now. Venus conjunct Mercury March 18-19. Favors playfulness in love and enhanced communication between partners. Venus square Pluto March 23. Intense passions, but there’s a hidden agenda. Jealousy and possessiveness are high, in direct proportion to fear of losing partnership. Avoid starting a new relationship at this time, because it can be characterized by these energies. Venus quincunx/inconjunct Jupiter March 24-25. A strong desire for the pleasures of life is with us now, although our eyes are often bigger than our stomachs. Troubles in relationships now are likely due to overblown expectations. It can be challenging to find a balance between responsibilities and the desire for self-gratification. The Moon & Timing The Void of Course Moon is the period of time after the Moon has made its last aspect in one sign until the Moon enters a new sign. During Void of Course Moon periods, it is generally wise to stick to routine rather than to begin new projects. The last aspect the Moon makes before changing signs is indicated here and is indicative of the “outcome” of the matter (whether that is a new project begun before the void period or the answer to a question in Horary Astrology). Void of Course in Horary Astrology: If you were asking a question and making a chart for the answer, as you do in Horary astrology, it is said that since the Moon is not looking forward to any more aspects in this sign, you would have to say that the answer is not forthcoming; any questions asked at this time would not come to pass. The Moon being Void is one of the Strictures against Judgment in Horary Astrology. The following tables incorporate the modern planets, but some astrologers do not count Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto in void Moon calculations. The Void-of-Course Moon this Week: Void-of-course Moon on Monday, March 19th, from 3:29 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a conjunction to Uranus), until the Moon enters Taurus at 9:07 PM EDT. VOC Moon on Wednesday, March 21st, from 1:21 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (an opposition to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Gemini the next day, Thursday, March 22nd, at 1:30 AM EDT. VOC Moon on Friday, March 23rd, from 11:52 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Uranus), until the Moon enters Cancer the next day, Saturday, March 24th, at 4:53 AM EDT. March 2018:  Void of Course Tables: March 2018 Timing with the Moon – Better Periods this Week for Electing New Initiatives The Moon is waxing this week — a period that is generally considered favorable for new beginnings, with exceptions. (See Best Time to Start a Business for more details). According to principles of timing with the Moon, a window of opportunity occurs this week on March 23rd from approximately 3:45 AM to 11:50 PM, while the Moon is in Gemini. Note that, at the time of this window, Mercury had just turned retrograde.

This Week’s Calendar  This Week in Astrology Calendar: March 18 to 24, 2018 This Week’s Aspects  Sun conjunct Chiron. An opportunity to find a sense of purpose or a “mission” arises now, increasing our confidence. Alternatively, we might face life lessons that get us in touch with the insecurities that hold us back from feeling confident. The desire to learn and grow through experiences and through others is strong. Problem-solving is favored.  Mercury conjunct Venus. Lighthearted conversations, sociability, humor, cooperation. Good time for socializing and for communicating with ease, telling others how we feel, and negotiating. Mentally, we’re not as disciplined as usual, as we prefer to chat with others and to think about more “pleasant” things than work. Generally favorable for commerce.  Venus square Pluto. Intense passions, but there’s a hidden agenda. Feelings of jealousy and possessiveness run high, in direct proportion to fear of losing someone or something. Avoid starting a new relationship at this time, because it can be characterized by these energies. Social interactions may be intense or could provoke intense feelings. Changes in financial status or relationships may occur now. This is an “all or nothing” energy. Manipulative behavior, fear of betrayal, and power struggles are possible.  Sun square Mars. We have “spring fever” no matter what the season. Driven by a restless desire to do something, without a well-defined goal we tend towards impulsive actions and get ourselves into needless arguments. Our reactions tend to be defensive or competitive. We are not very willing to compromise or negotiate. We are more inclined to injury and accident. Energy output can run high if we choose to focus.

MARCH 18 The Sun and Chiron meet in the sign of Pisces today, and this can pull up an opportunity to find a sense of purpose, increasing our confidence. Alternatively, we might face life lessons that get us in touch with the insecurities that undercut our confidence. The desire to learn and grow through experiences and others is strong now, and problem-solving is favored. This can be a time of building faith or confidence in our skills and talents. We can experience a stronger desire to seek out meaning, wisdom, and mental stimulation. The Moon is in Aries, all day, however, and we’re forward-looking and ready for a fresh start. The Moon aligns with both Mercury and Venus as both planets near a conjunction, and we have something to clarify about our feelings. MARCH 19 The Moon continues its transit of Aries for most of today, until 9:07 PM EDT. Mercury aligns with Venus in Aries, and we might enjoy good humor, lighthearted conversations, sociability, and cooperation. It’s a good time to talk about or quantify our feelings and reach agreements or negotiate with others. Mentally, we’re not as disciplined as usual, as we prefer to chat with others and to think about more “pleasant” things than work. Mercury will retrograde in just three days, however, and we may later need to revisit and perhaps revise what we may communicate or decide upon today. The Moon moves into Taurus tonight, and shortly after that, harmonizes with Mars. We’re resourceful and motivated, particularly related to business, financial, mechanical, practical, and security or comfort matters. The Moon is void from 3:29 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a conjunction to Uranus), until the Moon enters Taurus at 9:07 PM EDT. MARCH 20 The Moon spends the day in Taurus, harmonizing with Saturn and encouraging a practical approach to our day. Even so, the Sun enters pioneering Aries today at 12:16 PM EDT, marking the time of the Spring equinox and the start of the astrological New Year. The Sun will transit Aries until April 19th. In Aries, the Sun is enthusiastic and spontaneous. We are motivated by the desire to conquer. We are impulsive, and we have the urge to initiate. Aries is a sign that bounces back quickly–there is little pause for regret with Aries. It is brave and pioneering, and somewhat innocent. We are direct and rather uncomplicated in our needs, but we can also be short-sighted and lack the desire to plan. MARCH 21 The Moon is void from 1:21 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (an opposition to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Gemini the next day, Thursday, March 22nd, at 1:30 AM EDT.

Moon Signs This Week: When the Moon is in Aries  We're motivated by a strong desire to start fresh. A gut instinct to start something new is with us now, as well as the gumption to do so. Our pioneering impulses are strong, and we feel energetic, spontaneous, and enthusiastic. We may also be tactless and impulsive now. Excess energy is best channeled into physical activity. The Moon in Aries generally favors the following activities: Quick actions that yield immediate results. Undertakings that involve the self and the personality. (Staying power may be lacking). Self-assertion, taking on challenges, beginning short-term projects. When the Moon is in Taurus We are motivated by the desire for serenity, security, peace, and comfort. The Moon is at her most sensual and constant in Taurus. Our basic impulses are to relax, resist change, and "stop to smell the roses". Life slows down a little, and we get comfortable. We may also be inclined to stubbornness and materialism under this influence. The Moon in Taurus generally favors the following activities: Substantial and material actions that yield solid results. Financial activities, and those involving personal possessions, applying for a loan, beginning a potentially long-term relationship, music, home decor. When the Moon is in Gemini  Our basic instinct is to communicate, think, and learn under the influence of Moon in Gemini. We are motivated by a desire for variety and by an instinctive curiosity. The Moon in Gemini is light-hearted, breezy, and curious, but it can also be restless and fickle. The Moon in Gemini generally favors the following activities: Mental and communicative actions, and more than one activity at once. Reading, learning, letters and emails, errands, writing, teaching, making connections, short trips. When the Moon is in Cancer  The restlessness of the Gemini Moon gives way to an instinctive need for peace and quiet. A feeling of belonging and safety is what motivates us under this influence. The Moon feels right at home in the sign of Cancer, as it rules the sign. This Moon position has much healing potential.

Upcoming Weeks: Calendars  This Week in Astrology Calendar: March 25 to 31, 2018  This Week in Astrology Calendar for April 1 to 7, 2018  This Week in Astrology Calendar for April 8 to 14, 2018  This Week in Astrology Calendar: April 15th to 21st, 2018  This Week in Astrology Calendar: April 22 to 28, 2018  This Week in Astrology Calendar: April 29th to May 5th, 2018 THIS WEEK’S PLANETARY POSITIONS BY SIGN (General Trends): Sun in Pisces The mystic, the martyr, the sinner, and the saint: these archetypes take on greater importance in your life at a time like this. Forgiveness, compassion, and understanding come naturally, when you look at life from an eternal perspective – and if anyone ever does know such things, you’ll probably come to understand them as this cycle unfolds. This can be a phase of sublime spiritual development, to be sure. But you should be aware of tendencies to believe too quickly, too deeply, or to become dependent on things or people that seem to offer quick and easy answers to life’s deepest yearnings. Sun in Aries A new sense of self, a more assertive personal style, a more dynamic approach to life: these are the hallmarks of the cycle that begins for you now. Doubts fade into the background, and reserve is more and more a thing of the past. It’s time for action; your destiny is in your hands, rather than set apart. Full speed ahead (“and damn the torpedoes”) is your motto now, for better or for worse! Mercury in Aries New ideas and an independent or pioneering mental orientation take on more importance in your life at this time. Teaching, learning, communicating, and social contact have a way of outlining new directions in your life now, and there is much activity and involvement with these kinds of issues. Venus in Aries Romance at the drop of a hat is part and parcel of the cycle you have just begun. Winning the hearts of others can be a challenge you’re eager to accept – and the thrill of the chase might be most of the fun. Is it the pursuit of happiness – or the happiness of pursuit? Mars in Capricorn With this new cycle taking hold in your life now, taking charge and being in control become more important issues for you. You want to get things organized, and you have the initiative to do it. This is a time of ambition and responsibility, a time to keep your cool and pace yourself. Working hard is smart, but working smart is better. Jupiter in Scorpio The phase now beginning for you emphasizes fixing what is broken or unhealthy, thereby giving it a new lease on life. This is more than one person alone can handle, so the cooperation of others is essential. You give up something in order to get or create something, and you may not understand the reasons why at the time. Sex, money, power, and vitality become key issues. Saturn in Capricorn Responsibility, hard work, ambition, and achievement: these are the foundations you need to build on now, as a new cycle dawns in your life. And yet, there is a tendency to be a little too hard, perhaps a bit cold, in your approach to these things. Let ambition take you to the top, but don’t let it lull you into thinking that the end justifies the means. Uranus in Aries A clean break with the past in some respects is signaled by the cycle you have just begun. What YOU need, YOUR freedom and independence, shattering old molds: these are the things that energize you and take priority in your life. Uniqueness and originality set you apart. Neptune in Pisces Things spiritual and psychic take the driver’s seat of your imagination as you begin a new cycle. The fine arts and all manner of fantasies assume a larger-than-life importance. Surrendering to fate, karma, and other powers greater than merely mortal may be seen as the ultimate liberation. If all is Maya (illusion), what is the reality that gives rise to the world of appearances? Pluto in Capricorn As this new phase dawns for you, the pursuit of social/political power and status has a way of seeming necessary and inevitable – and let nothing stand in its way. It starts out small but has bigger consequences than you’d think.

TRANSFORMERS/GHOSTBUSTERS #2
Erik Burnham (A/CVR A) Dan Schoening (CVR B) Priscilla Tramontano
“GHOSTS OF CYBERTRON” Part 2! Okay. So. It seems as though there are giant robots who can disguise themselves as vehicles out there in the universe, and, as it happens, one of them as taken the place of Ecto-1.

Mike Mignola is one of the most popular comic book artists of the past thirty years, known for such important works as Batman: Gotham by Gaslight, Cosmic Odyssey, and, of course, Hellboy.

Updated with all-new colors! New cover by Mignola!
FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE COMP LIBRARY HC VOL 03

No phone, no light, no motor car, not a single luxury-John and Phil’s canoe trip turns them into castaways on an island! Once back in civilization, John solves his mid-life crisis by buying a sportscar, and Elly improbably winds up in front of a judge as a result! Michael enters junior high school, but not before learning a different sort of life lesson at summer camp with a girl named Martha, while Liz loses her first tooth, gets her ears pierced, and finds herself in a “Mean Girls” situation with her friends at school. Then it’s wedding bells for Uncle Phil, and Lawrence moves back to town-with a new family of his own! Volume Three, which collects the complete daily and Sunday comics from July 6, 1986 through December 9, 1989, brings to a close the first decade of Lynn Johnston’s modern masterwork, but of course, the story is just getting started…

Two of the greatest creators in the history of comics. One sprawling conspiracy, one metropolis on the brink of the 20th century, and one bloody-minded Ripper ushering London into the modern age of terror. The award-winning bestseller FROM HELL, often ranked among the greatest graphic novels of all time, takes on haunting new dimensions in FROM HELL: The Master Edition, enhanced with impressionistic hues by Eddie Campbell himself. This volume contains Chapter 9, as well as all the original annotations.
GHOST TREE #4
Bobby Curnow (A/CVR A) Simon Gane

LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN: TEMPEST #6
Alan Moore (A/CVR) Kevin O’Neill
In Moore and O’Neill’s final comic book, this issue masquerading as a British science-fiction weekly, the plot-strands of our concluding volume and loose ends from twenty years of continuity are tied in an ingenious starry bow, as Mina Murray and her legendary confederates transition from the world of fiction past and present to the world of fiction future. Planets end in visual spectacle, lovers are united in the matrimonial event of the millennium, and deadly enemies draw close in the conclusion of their fatal dances. This is your last call for the immaculate crescendo of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Vol. IV, The Tempest.

When he comes to in the present day, Hydra strikes and Cap learns the action hasn’t let up-the Marvel Action, that is!
• Classic Captain America tales from the legendary vault of heroes! • All-ages action in the past and present! • Reprints Marvel Adventures Super Heroes #8 and #12!
RAGNAROK BREAKING OF HELHEIM #1
Walter Simonson (A/CVR A) Walter Simonson
In the end, the gods gathered together and met their foes on the Battle Plain of Vigrid. There, so the stories tell, the gods and their great enemies slaughtered each other, the stars fell from the sky, Midgard itself sank into the all-encompassing ocean, and the Nine worlds were destroyed. In this issue, Thor hears a voice out of the past and learns that not all the old stories are true, and that the path before him now leads to Helheim, the land of the Dead. Walter Simonson, legendary creator of Star Slammers, Manhunter and the Alien film adaptation (with Archie Goodwin), and the definitive version (after Stan and Jack) of Marvel’s Thor, presents the next thrilling chapter of his own post-Ragnarok Thor saga!
RIP KIRBY HC VOL 11 1973-1975
Fred Dickenson (A/CVR) John Prentice
The longest-running modern adventure strip continues with 11 new stories starring the debonair private detective, reproduced from the original King Features Syndicate proofs. In these stories, Rip Kirby takes part in an old-style shoot-out in a nearly deserted Western ghost town, battles the deadly Owl and the Pussycat over a hidden stash of heroin, and rubs a magic lamp the wrong way in a Turkish bazaar. After learning he is the doppelganger of the crown prince of a postage stamp-sized country, the bespectacled detective follows the train of a counterfeit two million before being framed by a paroled con man who wants to get even with Rip for making him play second fiddle in the prison orchestra. Plus-the long-awaited return of Rip’s original girlfriend, Honey Dorian, as well as his arch-nemesis, the deadly Mangler! The more than 800 sequential comics from January 22, 1974 to October 11, 1975 also feature Rip’s new girlfriend, Holly Glowstep, and standbys such as Desmond, Wiggins, and Ma Casino.
• Advance solicited for July release! • “John Prentice’s work is superb. He’s one of the few cartoonists who took an important strip by a great cartoonist and did it not only justice, but in some ways, was as good as-and in some cases better than-the originator.”-Tom De Haven, author of the Derby Dugan trilogy
ROAD OF BONES #3
Rich Douek (A/CVR A) Alex Cormack
There is no god but hunger. And the loss of their food has driven Roman, Grigori, and Sergei to the absolute extreme. Knives are sharpened and souls are searched as each man decides just how far he is willing to go in order to survive the brutal tundra. One thing is certain, though-one must die for the others to live. Escape from the gulag takes a brutal and horrific turn in Road of Bones #3, from writer Rich Douek (Gutter Magic) and artist Alex Cormack (SINK).
SONS OF CHAOS HC GN
Chris Jaymes (A) Alejandro Aragon
Oversized, panoramic graphic novel Sons of Chaos, exposes the quiet agenda of the Ottoman Empire’s most brutal dictator, and his fascination with a young Greek boy that led to a war that would define the Western World.
An immersion into the moments we never see, and the self-serving motivations that convince a nation that violence is warranted, and that war is necessary.
In honor of the 200 Year anniversary of the Greek War for Independence, Sons of Chaos presents the story of 1821 through the eyes of Marcos Botsaris, the son of a respected Greek leader taken prisoner as a child and raised within the dungeons of history’s most infamous Ottoman Pasha, known as the “Napoleon of the East”– Ali Pasha of Ioannina. Over the next ten years, the bond formed between them would define history.
The Greek War for Independence was a conflict that quietly influenced the entire world and participants ranged from the London Stock Exchange to celebrities such as Lord Byron, as well as average impassioned Americans willing to transport themselves across the Atlantic to fight alongside the Greeks.
This conflict was the pinnacle of what we now know as the Romantic Period and yet, it’s a war that few know ever existed outside of the Greek and Turkish cultures; a war that stimulated the fall of the Ottoman Empire and shaped Western Civilization as we now know it, and in a sense is being fought today under a different heading amongst today’s political world leaders.
Hundreds of years of Ottoman rule gave the Greeks a reason to fight. Marcos Botsaris gave them a leader.
THEY CALLED US ENEMY TP
George Takei, Justin Eisinger, Steve Scott (A/CVR) Harmony Becker
Advance solicited for July release! George Takei has captured hearts and minds worldwide with his captivating stage presence and outspoken commitment to equal rights. But long before he braved new frontiers in Star Trek, he woke up as a four-year-old boy to find his own birth country at war with his father’s-and their entire family forced from their home into an uncertain future.
In a stunning graphic memoir, Takei revisits his haunting childhood in American concentration camps, as one of over 100,000 Japanese Americans imprisoned by the U.S. government during World War II. Experience the forces that shaped an American icon-and America itself-in this gripping tale of courage, country, loyalty, and love.
TREASURES RETOLD: THE LOST ART OF ALEX TOTH HC
Alex Toth (A/CVR) Alex Toth
A blockbuster collection of rare and little seen stories and artwork by the legendary Alex Toth. Included are complete stories from the 1950s and beyond, recently discovered color animation storyboards and presentation drawings, sketches and doodles, industrial comics, and individual pages from obscure comics and magazines. It’s a treasure trove that makes a fitting companion to the three-time Eisner Award-winning Alex Toth: Genius trilogy.
Toth’s significance to comics and animation art cannot be overstated. During his career, he was the comics field’s foremost proponent of modern design and composition. His work influenced almost every one of his contemporaries and has continued to work its magic on the generations that followed.
• Advance solicited for March release! • The Alex Toth: Genius trilogy won the Harvey award and three Eisner awards!
USAGI YOJIMBO #2
Stan Sakai (A/CVR) Stan Sakai
“Bunraku,” Part 2. Strange circumstances continue to surround a travelling puppet show as Usagi becomes embroiled in one of his most eerie adventures yet! Will the aid of a supernatural ally be enough for Usagi to prevent more death? Stan Sakai’s long-running epic continues its first thrilling storyline at IDW Publishing! Exciting samurai action, now in color!

MONTHLY HOROSCOPE FORECASTS FOR MAY 2017
ASTROLOGY TOOLS FREE NATAL CHART REPORT ABOUT CONTACT Astrology Cafe Daily Astrology
DAILY ASTROLOGY TODAY MONTHLY Monthly Horoscopes – May 2017
Apr 22, 2017 by ANNIE 2 COMMENTS
Aries
 Aries Where you felt constricted in April, you have a strong sense of liberation and forward movement in May, dear Aries. You are in particularly good shape with studies, communications, and ideas this month. Venus has now returned to your sign in direct motion. Even though you can be journeying along already-traveled ground until the middle of the month, you nevertheless feel that you are getting a second chance to get things right, and this is comforting.
People want to be around you – they like and seek out your company. From the 3rd, Mercury turns direct in your sign, reinforcing a sense that key areas of your life are no longer stuck or, at the very least, turning the corner.
Furthermore, your ruler, Mars, is working in harmony with your sign all of May, reinvigorating motivation to pursue personal interests and studies and to enjoy more movement and interaction with your neighborhood. It’s an excellent time to make connections – with others and mental connections. This improves even further from the 21st when the Sun enters the picture. Until the 15th, Mercury and Mars are in mutual reception, supporting one another. Your communications, teachings, ideas, and writing go over exceptionally well, even if you can be a little hasty with them at times. Even better, you’re satisfied with them.
Saturn and Uranus form an alliance once again, and projects begun towards the end of 2016 can enjoy a revival. Or, you work wholeheartedly on plans that bring both security and progress to your life. Following all the rules to the letter is not typically your cup of tea, but you also see the value of more structure and definition in your life. In fact, at this time, you’ll make the most progress by honoring some tried and true traditions, even if this seems counterintuitive. In May, getting ahead requires special attention to rules and order.
When planets move through Aries this year, they oppose Jupiter, and this is always a signal that you have to make accommodations for others even when you’re attending to personal plans. This month it’s related to love, communication, and mental space – work with others, and you’ll advance more satisfyingly.
Another emphasis in your solar chart this month involves your second house of resources. Even though you’re returning to some new starts or beginnings, this is also a great time to develop projects and focus on building and development. Life is supporting your talents, finding good use for them. You are working smartly now, finding ways to do what you need to do without impinging too much on your personal time.
Very little is holding you back right now, so take advantage. It’s a great month for initiating, building, developing, and learning. Gathering information can be a big focus. Your powers of attraction are super as Venus spends the entire month in your sign.
Key dates are the 9-10 when you can make exciting discoveries and come to wonderful epiphanies related to money, business, reputation, and intimate relationships. It’s a superb time to release a burden or to handle a problem that’s been hanging over your head for way too long. The 11-12 is tricky as disillusionment is possible, but out of disappointment comes a new and exciting project or vision. The 16-17 is similarly tricky, but not as immediately advantageous – adjustments need to be made to your expectations, past problems may resurface in relationships, and legal or business obstacles may be part of the picture for some of you. The 24-25 can be a time for taking on an all-new attitude or plan to get your daily life in order. You shine on the 30-31 in oh so many ways, not the least of which relates to your writing, studies, or communications.
Taurus
 Taurus May is a month of personal power for you, dear Taurus, and this year, you’ll carry forward some of this empowering energy into June as well. There is a robust and active focus on personality development, finances, work, health, and talents. On many levels, you can feel revitalized. People notice you for who you are not only what you do. You’re getting ahead because of your fabulous personality more than other assets in May.
While Venus, your lovely ruling planet, spends the entire month in your privacy sector, it’s moving direct all month, and there is a sense of forward movement nonetheless. You’re still in an incubation stage when it comes to your love life and affections – there are things to process and perhaps some healing to do before you’re clear. However, if this was agonizing at times in April, it’s a much smoother process in May. Venus will enter your sign in June, and you’ll be raring to go, but for now, laying low makes sense. Sorting things out will serve you very well now. In fact, you may need to deemphasize your love life to take advantage of other opportunities.
Pay attention to serendipities in May that relate to love, health, and work. You’ll be tuned into levels that you may normally miss, and hunches can be mighty compelling now.
Partnership matters may reach a turning point around the 9-11. You’ll come into strong touch with your feelings related to a negotiation, commitment, or one-to-one relationship. The month is outstanding for doing some ruminating and digging. You might find some real gems from old projects or ideas or recover lost valuables. From the 16th, you’re speaking up more often and making executive decisions.
There is powerful energy with you for breaking down long-standing problems or blocks. You receive great cosmic support this month for efforts to sort out financial and emotional predicaments as well as putting bad habits behind you. There can be breakthroughs happening now. More stability in your career can figure strongly.
Other key dates include the 11-12 when you feel the confidence to take charge of work or money-related matters. This can be about increasing your income or levels of work satisfaction. For some, getting healthy is a passion. The 16-17 may involve the letting go of false expectations or outdated projects and dreams. A situation related to work and friendship is not mixing well now, and adjustments may be necessary. Personal freedom feels a little limited due to a close relationship or commitment. New beginnings with finances are likely after the 25th, but first you need to sort out tricky matters related to outstanding debts, support, or old commitments. The 30-31 is excellent for making travel or educational plans, legal outcomes, or publishing or idea sharing.
Gemini
 Gemini The first three weeks of May is typically a period of tying up loose ends and living life under the radar, dear Gemini. To some degree, it’s the case this May, but you’re also living quite spiritedly! Your ruler, Mercury, ends its retrograde period on the 3rd, for one, and you begin to catch up to speed. Mars is not only in your sign all month, it’s in mutual reception with your ruler, bolstering up your energy and giving you further power to assert yourself and courage to pursue your desires. Routes to satisfaction are becoming clearer and clearer. While April had its fair share of roadblocks, May feels more energizing and supportive overall.
People tend to follow or respond positively to you as you seem to be where the action and energy are at this month! You are getting support from friends, associates, groups, or even your community. You enjoy working independently, and you can have many (or one or two fabulous) ideas for a start-up. The month is particularly supportive of your efforts to connect harmoniously with others. Areas of life that tend to fare best are friendships, partnerships, education, and financial life. Relationships can be both committed and open or both steady and exciting. You are combining progressive and traditional elements quite seamlessly now in your relationships, or you may be rewriting some of the rules for the better with friends and partners. Partnering or teaming up can be very advantageous for achieving your goals, so even though you do have a strong independent streak in May, open yourself up to the possibility of enlisting others’ help or getting active with friends.
The Full Moon on the 9-10 is eye-opening and warm. While this is a time ripe for discovery and blooming, it can also be a time for keeping things under wraps, deliciously private, or simply strategic. Intimate matters, work, and health may thrive now, reaching a turning point. Surprises are likely related to platonic relationships.
The 16-17 requires some adjustments. A lack of direction or unclear responsibilities can seem to get in the way of your pursuits. Either find ways to accept ambiguities or attempt to define your goals and commitments more satisfyingly. People may be calling you out on promises or expecting far too much of you when you need some personal space.
The Sun is in your sign from the 21st forward, launching your month-long personal power period. The New Moon on the 25th kickstarts new beginnings, but you may need to get over a hurdle first. Around the 28th, a significant person may seem to be blocking you. For some, it’s about circumstances getting in the way of your plans, or a sense that others, in general, are cooling off, conservative, unsympathetic, or unsupportive. The last two days of the month play more in your favor, especially related to resolving problems, getting back into the swing of things, developing new or picking up old interests, studies or other “busy work”, and a stronger feeling that you’re on track.
Cancer
 Cancer You’ll see encouraging forward movement and clarity regarding long-term goals, career, and life direction in May, dear Cancer. Where things seemed blocked, delayed, or unclear in April, you’re likely to see advances and resolutions this month. Friendships, networking, group connections, and your social life are in focus.
Despite all of this, there is much going on behind the scenes and on an emotional level as you deal with loose ends and prepare for a personal new year. Some may be taking some form of time-out or period of repose or recuperation. This is a time for considering what you want to take with you into the new solar year the begins around your birthday. This is about doing a spring cleaning in your psyche.
You receive real cosmic support for making updates rather than radically change areas of your life. Stability is important for you as a Cancer, but change is something that you need particularly on a professional or reputation/image level, and this way you can have both! Work, career, health, and partnership are areas for making important updates and adding a little more order and structure. You might begin a slow but steady lifestyle change or line of work. Work can have just the right mix of routine and gentle challenge and interest.
May is an excellent time for professional appeal or for making friends through your career or business. It’s a good time for polishing up your image or bringing more personal appeal and a creative touch to your work. There can be second chances to make an impression.
Around the Full Moon on the 9-10, you are in excellent shape for excitement in your social or romantic life as feelings come into full bloom. There can be powerful epiphanies and a significant turning point in a relationship or with a project dear to your heart.
The 16-17 can be a little tricky and adjustments are necessary. Work and social life are not mixing well now. You may find yourself torn between playing it safe and seeking out a bit of adventure. Another potentially tricky time is the 28th when a Mars-Saturn challenge tends to enforce slowing down or taking a break. This is a time for making sure you don’t overload. There can be a sense that others are leaning on you too much or taking the credit for your hard work, and this can reach a boiling point.
Discussions with friends or ideas generated through your networks can be truly inspiring and useful, particularly from mid-month forward.
The last two days of May are excellent for relationship advances and practical affairs. Meaningful conversations may occur now, and a sense that you’re making broad, long-lasting changes is empowering. There can be the reveal of valuable information or resources. Somebody has your back.
Leo
 Leo May can be quite excellent for broadening your horizons and branching out, dear Leo, through an expansion of your audience, travel, or studies. A personal philosophy or belief system comes into stronger focus and more clarity for some of you. Where April was bumpy, blocks clear in May.
You’re also in a good position to take charge of your work, manage others, take the lead, and make great strides towards your larger goals in May. You’re willing to put in the legwork and just the right amount of extra effort to shine or even outshine.
You’re taking a very well-rounded approach to life this month, which may very well be the key to your overall success. Activities with others keep you busy and motivated. Learning with study groups can be beneficial, or you might acquire new knowledge or gain inspiration from groups you connect with now.
There can be valuable epiphanies around the 9-10. Home and family matters assume larger importance to you now. You might discover or connect with compelling feelings about your living arrangements or family situation. This can be a wonderful time for reaching out to or spending extra time with family. It can also be a time for significant memories that help you make decisions in the present.
On the 11th and 16-17, watch for your recreational or romantic life mixing poorly with your work or reputation. Hasty communications should also be avoided. The desire to take on new projects, studies, and interests is strong, but you may need to work out matters of finances and support before going forward. Ambiguities slow you down, so look for ways to cement the details.
Saturn and Uranus harmonize again this month – this is the second of three exact aspects. This is a period for making meaningful changes in your life without entirely overturning existing structures. It’s a great time for building something exciting! It’s also useful for making updates, which can feel good even if the process is slow. You may find ways to combine adventuresome activities with practical accomplishment. Teaching can be useful now as it motivates you to update your skills to keep up to date.
There can be the chance to start fresh on a social level after the New Moon on the 25th, but you may need to clear some hurdles to get the ball rolling. Disagreements, blocks, or absence and distance with friends or lovers can be an issue in the last week of May. You may have been wrapped up in a relationship or a passion project recently, and tensions in a friendship or with a group can reach a head now. Make sure your responses are careful and considered and aim to reach a compromise for best results.
The last two days of the month support new interests and friendships, or a new lease on an old friendship. Your enthusiasm wins others over, and your unique qualities and perspective give your personality extra sparkle.
Virgo
 Virgo Mars brings extra muscle and motivation to your career, image, status, and responsibilities this month, dear Virgo. You are more ambitious than usual and quite focused on accomplishment. You’re not in any mood to be told what to do, preferring to lead the way yourself in May. Mars and your ruler, Mercury, are in mutual reception until mid-month, and Mercury turns direct on the 3rd, making the 4-15 quite excellent for getting things done. You’re certainly standing out, and while this is a special power period, it’s the case in a general sense for the entirety of May.
Even so, a lot is going on under the hood this month with your intimate life and/or with money matters and support. Where there was much waiting around, delays, backtracking with these issues in April, doors are opening to you in May. The chances of smoothing over a disagreement or attracting the support you need are high.
The 9-10 is fantastic for opening up the lines of communication or for making connections, reaching out, putting the word out, and making your ideas known. Mind you, there can be a rush to get something done and a harried pace, but this can also be an exciting time for discovering a passion or new interest.
On the 16-17, try not to rush decisions related to friends, projects, and money. This is a time for slowing down if you’ve been pushing too hard, or for navigating speed bumps, likely related to family matters and partnerships.
A Saturn-Uranus aspect is strong this month and is quite excellent for making significant updates and changes that don’t feel destabilizing. You’ll feel this mostly with family, finances (debts), and in your intimate relationships. This can be an improved time for children or creative projects as well. A relationship that is both stable and exciting may figure strongly for some of you. Making conditions work for you with loved ones may involve accepting non-traditional setups with new rules, for example. Steady changes to update your home can be in focus.
After the New Moon on the 25th, you get the opportunity to start fresh with your image or career, but you may need to get past an obstacle first. Around the 28th, family matters or responsibilities compete with your ambitions to succeed. Indeed this interferes with the pace you prefer to keep with your work or projects, but you may need to slow down before you move ahead. The 30-31 brings lovely support for your ideas, learning, travel, and career aspirations.
Libra
 Libra Where you may have felt stuck, in limbo, or delayed in April, dear Libra, more clarity arrives in May. This month is strong for a sense that you’re getting back on track. Relationships smooth over. Your stellar ability to compromise, negotiate, and bring balance to your life is back up to par, and then some! Relationships, finances, passion, intimacy, education, and adventure make up the larger themes of May and are areas of increased focus and opportunity. Learning and exploring with a partner or good buddy can be very beneficial now. Meeting people through your personal interests, studies, or travels is gratifying.
Even so, in many ways this is a month for doing some soul-searching, digging, and investigating. You may be doing a lot of observing and planning, and you’re inclined to pour quite a bit of energy into engrossing projects and interests.
On the 9-10, you’re in particularly good shape for making financial discoveries and adjustments. This is a time for recognizing your worth or value and seeking out your rightful share. A conversation or news arrives now that nudges you towards these epiphanies. A business deal or project might come to full bloom now.
All month, you’re looking to break out of the mold or routine in various ways through what you learn and where you go. You’re more courageous and motivated to try new things.
The 11th and the 16-17 can be tricky to navigate but will work to your advantage if you slow down, reconsider, and make adjustments. Be particularly mindful of your communications (you may come off as insensitive or uninterested) and watch for poor decisions resulting from restlessness on these dates. If your daily affairs are out of whack (and with Neptune a long-time guest in your sector of work and routines, this is quite likely), you may be suffering now as your situation prevents you from grabbing opportunities. Make it a priority to tidy up your life so that this doesn’t keep happening.
Coming into stronger power this month is a Saturn-Uranus influence that began in December, and that will lift this coming November, supporting improvements and updates. Areas of your life that benefit from new rules or constructive changes include your relationships, home life, projects, and studies. Alternative relationships, routines, courses of study, or living arrangements and setups that have been difficult to integrate into your life in the past now may work well for you with new rules. There can be an excellent balance of tradition and innovation.
The last week of the month has its highs and its lows, but you come out a winner. You may be dealing with a frustrating responsibility or delays and breakdowns with communication or transportation, and this prevents you from getting where you want to go, either literally or figuratively (or both!). Some of you can be bogged down by mundane activities, the correction of errors, errands, chores, and other responsibilities that you hadn’t anticipated or put out of your mind. If you’ve been neglecting problem areas, they may demand your attention now. Travel or educational plans may be delayed. Try not to stress over differences of opinion or bumps in the road. Once over this hump, you’ll be in prime shape for enjoying the opportunities of the 30-31 related to education, publishing, connecting, and traveling. You’re excited about expanding a business, relationship — or your mind and experiences.
Scorpio
 Scorpio Where there were delays, confusion, and irritations in April, you’ll enjoy forward movement, corrected courses, and clarifications in May, dear Scorpio. For you, areas most affected by slowdowns have been relationships, work, routines, and health. Clarity comes to these areas of life in May, and perhaps some second chances to work things out. May not only eases you forward, it also features some very supportive influences for your practical affairs and partnerships.
After the first week of the month, you’re in particularly good shape for sorting out your duties, organizing your personal and work space, and researching your options.
The 9-10 can be an especially illuminating period when projects come to bloom, and you come into touch with your true feelings on a matter. What you’ve been brushing to the side can no longer be ignored! This can be a magical time for relationships but also for self-discovery. Your intuitive “feelers” are on double duty.
May can also be a significant money month, not necessarily for windfalls but for getting good deals or gaining support more effortlessly. You don’t shy away from dealing with imbalances of power or from tricky, taboo topics this month, and you’re ready to take charge in your intimate life.
Try to treat the 11th and 16-17 as times for making adjustments instead of pushing your plans forward. You might feel that delays encountered now break your momentum, but they don’t need to – in fact, corrections you make now can save you time in the long run. You’re in demand, but you also need time to yourself and don’t always feel prepared (Jupiter in your solar twelfth house can have this effect). Second-guessing plans or a significant other — and possibly even yourself — can figure strongly now, but consider this a test of strength. Take a break from the action to rethink a few things.
Fortunately, a Saturn-Uranus influence with you since December comes into strong power this month. You can benefit from updating and improving finances, work, health, studies, and home life. Changes that have been difficult to integrate into your life in recent years might now appear highly workable. Make new rules so that you can get alternative approaches to work, living conditions, or health working for you. You might enjoy more freedoms in your daily routine by making structural changes or a more stable income figures strongly now. Work can be both interesting and profitable.
Conversations that left you living with question marks or that led nowhere may be revisited this month, with the blanks filling in. The lines of communication open with a significant other or good buddy. You’re in particularly good light on the job, at the gym, or other activities related to your daily routines and health pursuits, leading to social or romantic opportunities, or simply more pleasure in your everyday life.
The last week of the month includes a New Moon in your intimacy and sharing sector, prompting the urge or need to start fresh. It also presents a challenge or block to your desires. Money and ownership matters can be at the root of conflicts. This can extend to non-material ownership, such as possessiveness or carelessness in relationships. A middle ground or compromise should be sought for both internal and interpersonal conflicts. The last two days of the month are particularly ripe for making exciting lifestyle changes and feeling very much on top of things.
Sagittarius
 Sagittarius You move beyond the blocks and delays of April, dear Sagittarius, and enjoy special attention, relationships, and improved routines in May. Problems straighten out and answers or news you’ve been waiting for arrive. Mars charges through your partnership sector, bringing relationships and interactions with others to life, while charming Venus spends the month in your romance and creativity sector. This is one of the most relationship-focused periods of the year. It’s a time for making connections, meeting people, and becoming more active with friends, partners, and lovers. Conversations that left you stumped in April can start to make sense this month. Projects or endeavors related to work or health that stalled are now picked back up or picking up pace.
The 4-15 when Mercury is direct and in mutual reception with Mars is quite excellent for setting things straight and building your relationships, whether these are love or business connections.
The 9-11 is a time for exciting interactions, personal appeal, and pleasant events, but also an unexpected moment of truth and a need to rest, reflect, and otherwise pull yourself together. This is not about getting clear or reliable answers from the outside but about clear, intuitive flashes and realizations within you. You can discover how you actually feel about someone or something, and it may be hard to explain what brought you to your conclusions. Your instincts and intuition are working overtime now. This is a time for recognizing your need to pay attention to mental and physical health.
Take things slowly around the 11th and 16-17. This year’s Jupiter-Neptune influence peaks now and can be disorienting at times, largely because you have troubles integrating your social life and family life, or satisfying your need for safety and your need to experiment. Decisions may be weak or painful to make due to lack of confidence and a feeling of being out of step. Avoid letting problems get you down and work on fixing things and making adjustments. Problems encountered now can break your momentum, but you’re sure to build it up again once over these humps, this time more wisely or confidently.
A helpful influence in your life since December picks up power now and helps you to see areas of life that can use an update. You have more faith that your efforts are counting for something and responsibilities can be more satisfying and enjoyable as a result. You’re able to work hard and play hard now, or simply enjoy a healthier balance between work and play. If you’ve had troubles adapting to certain elements of your life that have been unreliable, inconsistent, or unconventional, particularly related to children, time off, or romance, you’re now finding ways to make these things work for you. Laying down some new rules may be at the core of this.
While the New Moon on the 25th clears the path for new beginnings or a fresh approach to partnerships, you’ll need to work through a block before you honestly feel you can begin anew. Saturn in your sign opposes Mars on the 28th, leading to a standoff or bringing a frustrating matter to a head. If someone’s been too pushy with you or bringing chaos to your life, you’ll want to do something about it now. Draw boundaries, but make an effort to compromise if need be. It’s too easy to overreact or make a point when meeting someone halfway (if they deserve it!) is your best bet. The last two days of May are gorgeous for relationship and creative excitement and insights into money and work.
Capricorn
 Capricorn The month ahead is one of diverse themes, dear Capricorn, but perhaps most importantly, you’ll feel that you’re moving forward in May. This comes as a relief after the rather stuck, “in limbo” feel of April. May is a month of more clarity in your home life or with living conditions and arrangements, as well as your romantic life. There is a strong focus on both work and play this month. Recreation, romance, creativity, hobbies, and children can be sources of more pride nd involvement with these areas of life increases.
Mars rips through your sector of work and health all month, revving you up and motivating you to take care of business. This influence also brings more muscle to your health and wellness or self-care programs – if you’ve been putting off going for a check-up or slowing down on fitness, this is a time for getting back into action. You want to take charge. At times, the need to initiate, lead, and work independently can stir up competition or conflict with others, so do what you can to either tone things down a little or prepare yourself for a battle or two, depending on which you prefer!
The 9-10 can bring sudden or unexpected social activity and epiphanies. You may be liberated from a household responsibility, for example, or a friend appears almost out of nowhere wanting your company or help. Alternatively, this can be a time for discovering your feelings about a friendship or project. You’ve been quite preoccupied with your personal life and work these days, and now you’re being pulled out of your routine, nudging you towards a better balance. The Full Moon now is a reminder that giving back is rewarding.
The 11th, 16-17, and 28th are more challenging dates that require you to muster up patience. You’ve been experiencing increased desires or prompts to communicate, connect more spontaneously and openly, and share your ideas, but there are times such as these where insecurity can undermine this. Do what you can to deal with possible fears of leaving yourself vulnerable. Toughening up on this level takes time and steady mini-challenges wherein you challenge yourself to face your fears on a small scale.
However, one of the year’s star influences peaks this month and involves your ruler, Saturn, which gets fantastic support from Uranus. You first met this aspect in December, and it will continue to back you up until November. This is a time for updates, steady progress, and improvements – changes that don’t destabilize you, in other words. There can be opportunities to make an alternative setup work, perhaps related to your home life as Uranus is a long-time guest in your home and family sector. Living conditions and family relationships improve with more steadiness and security, yet still manage to maintain a spirit of openness and progress. Money and health matters can also improve. Here is a chance to put structures or new rules into place that don’t entirely impinge upon your freedom In fact, with some buckling down, you’ll better enjoy your free time.
The New Moon on the 25th brings power to your work and health sector (even more so) and encourages you to improve your habits and begin fresh with your routines. However, it occurs close to a Mars-Saturn opposition, exact on the 28th, and you’ll likely have to buckle down and make some compromises before you start brand new endeavors and strive towards your resolutions. Where you’ve been overdoing or pushing too hard, you now need to draw up limits and follow some rules. This aspect occurs along your health and service axis in the background of your chart. Aspects that are in the foreground are generally considered more challenging because of their in-your-face nature. However, background aspects such as this one can involve some suffering in silence, which can be just as if not more frustrating! Allow yourself the right to relax. While the world seems to be demanding a lot of work from you, and your own competitive or ambitious feelings can be at play as well, you need to slow things down before moving forward.
The 30-31 presents opportunities to get back into the game, ideally this time, well-rested! While work certainly benefits, this can also be a time for an edge in your romantic or personal life. Aquarius
 Aquarius Where there were delays or extended periods of limbo in April, dear Aquarius, blocks lift in May (April showers bring May flowers?). Slowdowns for you primarily revolved around communications, transportation, house and home, love, and money. May is vibrant with themes, and while it promises some ups and downs, energy flows more smoothly than April overall.
You are in a strong position for improving — and enjoying — your home life and family relationships. A fair part of you needs to recoup, regenerate, and decompress this month. However, you are also craving special attention, fun and games, romance, or hobbies and recreation. You want to shine! Mars moving through the sector of your chart ruling all of these things, and the Sun joining along from the 21st, ensures a lively, animated, energized period — at least some of the time. Ideally, you’re able to rest hard and play hard. If not, you’ll find time for these things, and your heart is certainly tied up here in May. (June and July will be more work-oriented). This is a fabulous time for pouring energies into a passion project or heartfelt pursuits, and a romance or getaway for some.
The 9-10 is an eye-opening period. You can make some exciting discoveries now, but you’re also likely to be called to action if you’ve been too heavily engrossed in your personal life. The Full (Flower) Moon occurring at the top of your solar chart plays a big role in this — you may be called to task, or simply required to fill a responsibility or take the lead now. It may be a time of a promotion, culmination or the turning point of a project, recognition, a new title, status change, or award. This is tied into exciting news or discoveries about your studies and personal interests.
Periods to hold back, reconsider, and slow down include the 11th, 16-17, and 28th. Your desire for new experiences, adventure, and intellectual excitement, while sometimes on the back burner, is always with you on some level this year, but it can clash with your security needs at these times. Challenges in your social life or responsibilities to friends and groups can also compete your increased need for down time or personal time.
An influence involving your traditional and modern planetary rulers, Saturn and Uranus, that’s been with you since late last year comes into stronger power in May. This influence has your back until November, and it supports your efforts to make workable updates and improvements to your life, particularly related to communications, studies, friendships, long-term goals, and personal initiative and image. You’re coming across particularly well now. Your life feels a little more stable but not boring, either. You’re able to work with the best of both the traditional and unconventional worlds. It’s a great time for learning, sharing ideas, teamwork, and group connections. Increased enjoyment of your duties or work is likely now, and for some of you, this is because you’re making a living from your hobbies or ventures that you love.
The New Moon on the 25th is an energizing, empowering one. However, it requires you to follow some rules or handle problem areas and excesses before you get the chance to begin fresh creatively and/or romantically. If you’ve been going a little too hard in the areas of recreation, personal interests, your love life, and leisure time, then you may need to tone things down, include others, or follow some rules. Once again, pacing yourself is necessary, and it requires patience. The 30-31 opens up excellent opportunities for sharing your creative work, romantic communications, or advances in your projects and hobbies.
Pisces
 Pisces Most of the slowdowns or confusing moments in April are behind you now, dear Pisces, as May promises you slow but steady forward motion. Clarifications and advances related to finances, business, studies, communications, and transportation figure strongly now. These things improve, flow naturally, and pick up momentum this month. Ideally, you’ve come into touch with what and who you value, and you’re now ready to apply what you’ve learned. As a result, you’re picking and choosing your projects more mindfully.
Mars charges through your home and family sector all month, and the Sun joins along from the 21st forward. This is action-oriented energy applied to your personal life. You’re likely to get in touch with buried resentments that can frustrate you enough to make changes. You get the chance to work on or in the home. You may be defending, rallying for, or motivating family now. Your home life or inner life can be animated, colorful, and busy.
You can also be knee deep in studies, personal interests, writing, speaking, errand-running, and connecting this month. You can be very influential or persuasive in your communications, guidance, or teachings.
The 9-10 is a time for making epiphanies and personal discoveries, as well as for releasing and connecting with feelings that were previously held at bay or pushed down deep. Even though any Full Moon can feel heavy or draining, it can also be a time of release, liberation, announcements, and projects reaching a turning point. For you, there may be a culmination of studies, published works, or the need for travel or freedom to discover and explore things beyond your routine.
The 16-17 can require patience and foresight. Self-doubt is temporary and can have the useful function of slowing you down, potentially giving you the chance to see where you can make some changes or adjustments that will ultimately work very much in your favor. As much as you may seek an escape route right now, know that it will subtract from your confidence and energy levels. Responsibilities weigh heavily on you as they seem to pop up at the worst time. However, applying yourself now benefits you later.
A supportive influence that’s been with you since December gains power this month, and it’s helping you improve your work, image, reputation, self-esteem, and finances. You may be able to stabilize your work or income without sacrificing your freedom and independence. It’s a good time for some Pisces to make a real go of self-employment, and for others to find more enjoyable ways to make a living. Alternative means of making money or doing business can work now with additional structure and more self-discipline.
The last week of the month brings a New Moon and the chance for a new beginning, with a few strings attached! You may need to pull out of yourself or your personal life and come up for air now. Responsibilities need your attention before you can really throw yourself into personal projects and ventures. This is a time for taming impulsiveness just enough to bring things into better balance. The 30-31 is excellent for personal influence and a competitive edge, as well as creative ways to improve your finances, security, and home life.
*Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
*I regret that I was unable to write these monthly overview horoscopes for April as explained in the Site News section of Cafe Astrology. I have decided to use this as an opportunity to write monthly summaries a week ahead of the month in question, and that’s why you’re seeing May horoscopes a little earlier than usual.
