Mercury Retrograde, Spring Eclipse Season, and May 2023 Psychic Horoscopes

It is very difficult to tell which way the wind is blowing, if the economy is up or down, if the planet is getting sicker or healthier, if democracy or autocracy is winning. On the positive side, the red arrow suggests not just an escalation of Mars-themed activities like war, but that many people find the courage to strike out on their own to do something exciting, unique, and empowering with their lives, especially the earth signs. Water signs can have creative breakthroughs, too. Also, the stock market could rally again. (But the Gemini Sun “mixed signals” comment and because Mercury is retrograde, it would be nothing to trust. The following messages for individuals are a welcome contrast from ongoing mass upheavals: people can be excited and creative and feeling like it’s a fabulous time in their lives,

May 2023 is the ultimate mixed bag, when despite the chaos around us, people can develop healthier more positive egos, are blessed with great new ideas, and a “you can do it!” attitude.

Flying along with the spirit of positive energy means ignoring a lot! If you’re a creative person, indulge in the new, and experiment with new models and formats.

Mercury rx April 21-May 14th: For all zodiac signs, the simple Mercury retrograde message is, "Fix things before proceeding." Get forms filled out, finish filing, get things in order before losing yourself in what’s next.

Meanwhile, try to not whine about anything or lament how things are out loud…what to leave behind in your conversation and thoughts as you go about fixing things, is whatever happened that got you here.

Last week of April 2023: It can be wild in a good way! Whether you’re putting together a business plan or a work of art or redesigning your life, find a way to creatively inspire yourself. Make the most of the night! But stay alert to your surroundings, look both ways before crossing.

Success In May 2023: Personal growth, self-expression and creativity are highlighted, and setting yourself up for The Big Time.

You can find or cooperate with supportive structures that help you take the next step professionally.

This eclipse season runs from the new moon solar eclipse on April 19 to the full moon lunar eclipse May 5th. This in-between time is perfect for activities such as preparing foundations, fixing existing circumstances, and doing the practical things that need doing, especially if you don’t know what comes next.

This is a good month to only be in competition with yourself: getting healthier, achieving personal goals, and trying to do better. The stars suggest you could really get into it with others if you into a competition or conflict with others while Mars is in Leo. Living well and being at peace is the best revenge. Tempers can flare towards the end of the month, even though it’s also a good time for collaborations and to ask for funding. Smile a lot!

At the months’ end, you can see new things that need amending or clearing out, and what needs to be switched up or scrubbed entirely. The end of the month also has kind of a jolting atmosphere to it, and people have already been up and down and all over the place lately about the direction of the world, the economy, and the health of the planet. Daily soothings, daily fun, walk in Nature, pet the pets... get through any jitters by being good to yourself. Get up and stretch more often.

Many new and creative projects are begun in May 2023. Don’t take anything that falls away in the process as a loss. It’s a making-space move, and frees you to more successfully pursue your personal goals.

Fire, Aries, Leo, Sagittarius: For those in business, keep on going with the moneymaking, branching out, marketing, and outreach activities. Success is fairly guaranteed if you’ve already started and it’s looking good. Keep steady, stay sober, and get successful.

Air, Gemini, Libra, Aquarius: You could get lost in flights of fancy… you have to consider every possibility. Don’t think something can’t happen because you don’t want it to. Be prepared and make back-up plans.
