Generally May is a good travel month, although swift and purposeful travel involving water may be unusually fraught, or unusually healing, or both. Most of the long VOC moon periods are benign for travelers. All times are PDT (UTC -7:00).

Tuesday-Wednesday, May 1-2. Good.

Thursday-Friday, May 3-4. So-so.

Saturday-Sunday, May 5-6. Poor.

Monday, May 7. Probably OK, though possibility of sudden stops and starts demands extra alertness.

Tuesday-Friday, May 8-11. Good.

Saturday, May 12. So-so.

Sunday-Monday, May 13-14. Good.

Tuesday, May 15. Poor.

Wednesday, May 16. Generally OK. Any mishap that occurs today will feel somehow cosmically fated.

Thursday-Saturday, May 17-19. Good.

Sunday, May 20. Poor all day. Powerful New Moon Solar Eclipse at 4:47pm PDT.

Monday, May 21. Good.

Tuesday, May 22. Good until everything slows down after 3:51pm PDT. Try to begin trips before this VOC moon.

Wednesday, May 23. So-so.

Thursday-Saturday, May 24-26. Good.

Sunday, May 27. Good for journeys begun before 5 pm PDT.

Monday, May 28. Not the best; energies erratic. Defer post-holiday travel until Tuesday if possible.

Tuesday, May 29. Good.

Wednesday, May 30. Poor.

Thursday, May 31. Good; best for trips begun before 6:30 pm PDT.
