May is usually a time of movement, milestones and travel. In the Northern Hemisphere, spring has sprung. We celebrate May Day, Cinco de Mayo, Mother's Day, the end of the academic year, graduations galore, and let's not forget weddings. May tends to be active, and festive. This May, Mercury stations direct mid-month—although in stolid Taurus, which tends to be a determined, though not zippy, sign. Travel this month is generally favorable, for those of us who can get ourselves moving! One interesting note: there are very few VOC periods during the month. Particularly after Mercury stations direct on the 11th, our travel time will tend to be purposeful, rather than purely for fun, relaxation, or reflection.

Saturday, May 1. OK. Moon's Sagittarian exuberance runs into roadblocks; be patient.

Sunday, May 2. OK, though avoid beginning any journey during the wee hours between 1 am and 3 am PDT.

Monday, May 3. OK.

Tuesday-Wednesday, May 4-5. Poor. Energies are mixed and choppy.

Thursday-Saturday, May 6-8. Good.

Sunday, May 9. So-so. We'll feel the urge to be moving, but impulsivity could land us in unexpected situations.

Monday-Wednesday, May 10-12. Good.

Thursday, May 13. Not the best.

Friday-Saturday, May 14-15. Good.

Sunday, May 16. A powerful day, though not the best for travel.

Monday-Tuesday, May 17-18. Good until late evening on Tuesday.

Wednesday-Thursday, May 19-20. Poor.

Friday, May 21. Very good.

Saturday, May 22. Problematic. We may feel like keeping our noses to the grindstone, and that's probably the best place for them on this accident-prone day.

Sunday, May 23. Possibly uncomfortable, probably not actually dangerous. Libra moon helps waft us along.

Monday, May 24. Good.

Tuesday-Wednesday, May 25-26. Both days OK during the day, worsening after 4 pm.

Thursday, May 27. Poor. Moon in Sag, and Uranus moving into Aries, impart a huge impetus to be on the march. But! It's Full Moon day, and a general eagerness to be on the move could make everything flow swiftly and surely... or could send us all slamming into obstacles, or each other.

Friday, May 28. Excellent. If you're planning a Memorial Day weekend trip, today and Tuesday, June 1, are the best travel days.

Saturday, May 29. Difficult.

Sunday, May 30. Good on the whole, but don't let a tendency to bicker with companions or others ruin an otherwise positive experience.

Monday, May 31. Difficult but probably fine.

Tuesday, June 1. Excellent.
