Important people that "count" are around, as well as people you can count on. You are your own presentation, and caring about what other people think is often more important.

MOON GOES VOID OF COURSE AFTER SQUARE MERCURY (11th Sign to 2nd Sign) - May 10 2007
MOON ENTERING PISCES (12th Sign) - May 10 2007
The Pisces Moon can be a time of divine inspiration and composition. It is normally a sympathetic and empathetic time. This is a great time to recharge your batteries with some well needed down time. For some they may seek an escape with alcohol or mind-altering substances. You may feel compelled toward activities that support what feels like a mission or become a vehicle for divine intervention. This moon period can hold both gentle and forceful energy. Neptune the god of the sea, rules Pisces can be divinely spiritual or filled with upheaval when enraged. Hurricanes after all are born at sea. Tidal waves, tsunami and monsoons are all ruled by Neptune as are any major rain or snow storm. This can be a sensitive and romantic couple of days. There may be a presence of strong feelings of faith combined with a need to make a spiritual connection. It is normally a sympathetic and empathetic period; people can be overly sensitive and feel victimized. At times when feeling overly frustrated and misunderstood, striking out at others turns the victim into the victimizer as with the wounded puppy syndrome. There may be a strong focus on cosmetic and superficial appearances. Some may experience a Pisces Moon as a "black cloud" or fear that something unfortunate will occur as with 'Murphy's Law". There is a strong spiritual hunger during this time. Emotions range from melancholy to sentimental. This is a very good time for meditation, yoga and prayer and connecting to the universal divine protector. On a mundane level, there may be all sorts of sneaky behavior behind the scenes and misrepresentations. You may become aware of secrets. Clandestine affairs love a Pisces Moon. Elect to work behind the scenes for tasks requiring solitude. Intuition runs high; so trust your gut feelings. Music can be used as a tool to alter moods. Practice meditation, yoga and prayer. Create something poetic and be open to receive inspiration. Help someone -- service and sacrifice is Pisces' middle name and it helps with any tendency toward self pity. Be aware of the lack of boundaries. The weather may be wet or misty. This is a fertile time and productive time in the garden. Planting and cultivating. If a Moon phases occurs while the Moon is in Pisces, people take action on the secrets revealed. The rule of thumb with a Pisces Moon is that you will land in a different place than you expected if you choose this time to initiate your objectives. If you are a Pisces, matters generally tend to go your way.
JUPITER SQUARE URANUS (9th Sign to 12th Sign) - Exact May 10 2007
Brief description: This is an exciting transit that can bring a considerable excitement. The desire to break out of any set pattern can be both the source of frustration and a strong rebellious streak. Personal relationships are at risk with this breakup energy with the need for space and freedom. There is a lazy escapism quality. You could invent that helps to aid your freedom from a self imposed trap. I have included some interesting notes from past occasions when Jupiter and Uranus were square (90°) in like signs. For instance, the evolution of flight began in 1903 when the Wright Flyer lifted into the air for a 12 second flight and covered a distance of 121 feet. Jupiter was in Pisces then and Uranus occupied Sagittarius which is the reverse of their current positions. Certainly the combined energies bring about technological advances and freedom. To fly is the ultimate freedom for man. The Wright Brothers still had another five years to go before a successful flight. Yet by 1924 the first round-the-world flights were completed. At that time there was the square between Jupiter in Sagittarius and Uranus in Pisces just as they are now. The news held some of these interesting notes; on March 3, 1924 the Ottoman dynasty ended after a rulership since 1281 by the hand of the Turkish President who banished all members of the house of Osman and all Kurdish associations, schools and publications were shut down.
Here is a First Woman story– in 1924 Miriam A. “Ma” Ferguson was the first woman to win a state governorship in Texas. She took office upon the death of her husband and than ran for office and won. She promised to weaken the power of the Ku Klux Klan banning anyone to wear a mask in public. Also in 1924, a German company established the first synthetic gasoline development program since learning that fossil fuels would be exhausted in a couple of decades. It was believed the energy crisis at that time would be saved by replacing petroleum gasoline with coal derived gasoline. If you can avoid the lazy escapism tendencies of this aspect there is something you could invent that helps to aid your freedom from a self imposed trap.

MERCURY ENTERING GEMINI (3rd Sign) - May 11 2007
Brief description: Mercury will make a very brief transit through Gemini in the sign it functions best. While in this sign Mercury enhances conversation and increases the speed of the exchange of information; not all of which is reliable. There will be plenty of data, calls, visits and short trips. Gossip could flourish into major stories. Introductions to new people are one of Mercury's finest jobs making him an excellent net worker while in the sign of Gemini. Not all connections are a match. Mercury lacks scrutiny or discretion. Prepare to sort through what seems like junk mail, some of which is useful.
For personal use: Mercury in Gemini is great for the right introductions. Socialize.

MOON ENTERS ARIES (1st Sign) - May 12 2007
The Aries Moon has a higher energy level and can be aggressive and self focused. There us a strong need for action and problem solving. During this time you may seek independence and be short tempered, confrontational and challenging here can be a single-minded mission or the potential to start something from scratch. The daily tones are noisier and less tolerant then other Moon signs. There might be an absence of social grace or pleasantries but not lacking in charm. This is an emotionally demanding period and can be filled with a need for sexual release. Assertiveness is seen everywhere and some people or other critters just will not take no for an answer. On the positive note you may begin projects you have held off. On the other side of that you may not finish them either. Plant onions. Good time to weed the garden and kill insects. If you are an Aries, matters tend to go your way.
SUN SQUARE NEPTUNE (2nd Sign to 11th Sign) - Exact May 12 2007
Brief description: This is the square before Neptune turns retrograde on May, 2008. Confusion, romance, illusions and misconceptions are typical with this aspect. This day can be troublesome when under the influence of alcohol and drugs. Use caution as judgments are poor or blinded. Clouds and wet weather.
For personal use: Beware of being swept off your feet. The likelihood that someone's feelings are at stake is high. People could be over sensitive to the insensitive comments made by others. There is a lack of objectivity. Over indulgence with anything could lead to very bad judgment.
For business use: Create positive temporary illusions not designed to cover the facts but enhance an image. Take advantage of the idealistic nature of your target audience. Resist purchasing and selling is risky also. If the problem is mysterious as with invisible "gremlins", they could disappear by tomorrow.
