Hi, I'm Joni Patry, and welcome to my YouTube channel. Well, today I want to talk about the first week in May, and what I'm going to be doing is I'm going to be going over where the moon is daily because the Moon is really what represents the emotions of the masses, how everyone's feeling. I'm going to be going over the aspects that are happening daily and what you can expect going on personally in your life based on where the stars are. So it's real interesting to me if you'll tell me where you are in the comments down below, as well as realize that I'm in Dallas Dallas, Texas, in the United States, I'm on Central Daylight Time, so make the adjustments in accordance to where you are as I go through each day, such as when the Moon may change signs. So this is going to give you a sense and a feel for the planets, especially the Moon the Moon's nakshatra. And another thing is, remember, this is Vedic sidereal astrology, so the placements I'm talking about are actually the true placements in the heavens. They are astronomically correct. So one more thing I want to mention before we get going is if you want to know how all these planets are affecting you on a personal level in other words, your own birth chart, you want to get my Galactic Planner. My Galactic Planner will take your chart and apply everything I'm doing here daily and give you predictions. You can be better guided by the stars. So that is galacticplanner.com. And one more thing I want to mention about the planner is it's becoming an app, and it is going to have tools and things that you're going to want to know about, because with this new app, you're be able to ask questions and get specific dates, like when is the best time for me to travel, meet someone, make some money. You will get all these answers aside from daily predictions. So let's get going and let's talk about the very first day of May, May 1st. It's a Friday and the Moon is— well, this is the day of the Full Moon, and this Full Moon is occurring in Libra. And what's real interesting about this time frame is that the Moon is in Libra, but let me tell you, it is isolated away from all the other planets. So this is a lonely Moon, and what we have going on right now in the heavens is a kala sarpa yoga. Now, if you don't know what that means, it just simply means things are really intense that are happening right now. Kala sarpa means there's an entrapment of all the planets, so we're kind of like trapped and things need to play out karmically in a specific way. But whenever the Moon goes outside of the kala sarpa yoga, in other words, all the planets on one side of the Rahu-Ketu in Vedic astrology, this yoga, kala sarpa yoga, does not entail the outer planets, so disregard that. But what I'm looking at is that all the planets visible to the naked eye are entrapped by Rahu and Ketu, but every 2 weeks the Moon goes outside of that entrapment and it really sheds light on things. But the Moon being isolated by itself, people are feeling isolated by themselves, not a feeling of unity or togetherness. But the Moon being in Libra— Libra, remember, the symbol for Libra is the scales, which represent balance, which represents justice too. So this is what's occurring with this full moon. This full moon is shedding light on the areas that things need to come to balance and justice must be served. So I know you're feeling that. Now, the Moon's nakshatra is Swati. Swati is the nakshatra that deals with communications, especially in a business sense. This is a good day, this full moon, for business. Aside from that, Jupiter is casting a trine to the Moon, which makes it a positive day for getting getting things done. And remember, a full moon brings things to our awareness. It lights up the darkness of the sky. So the full moon in Vedic astrology is very good. And where, where the Jupiter is sitting in the air sign of Gemini, this is a time for communications to get clear. Remember, none of the planets are retrograde right now, So it is a time of productivity, moving forward, getting things done. All right, so now let's go to Saturday, May 2nd. We have the Moon still in Libra most of the day. By the, by the later hours, it will go into Scorpio. So the Moon is in the nakshatra most of the day called Vishakha. And Vishakha is one of the most powerful nakshatras for getting things done as well. It deals with victory, success, power, someone that's determined. And this nakshatra is ruled by Jupiter, so this is a very positive nakshatra. And Jupiter is casting a trine to the Moon while it's still in Libra. Let's see, it will leave Libra by— oh my, so it's in the middle of the day. Yeah, it will go into Scorpio around 2:30 in the afternoon Central Daylight Time, so adjust your clocks to know when the Moon goes into Scorpio on this day. And Scorpio, remember, is the sign of the Moon's stabilization. The Moon does not like to be in Scorpio, so it's over the top, too intense of energy. And the Moon's kind of going into an odd place where it's not in good harmony with Jupiter. It is going to oppose Let's see, yes, it's going to oppose Uranus today, which means unsettling feeling. And the Moon is isolated all by itself away from all the other planets, so people are not feeling too together today, and they're feeling a lot of intense emotions with the Moon being in Scorpio. And it is opposed Venus, Now, with Venus being conjunct Uranus, opposed the Moon, this could be a time that you could by chance meet someone unexpectedly, unexpectedly through friends, through connections. It will be exciting, but the Moon in Scorpio, don't be over the top, too emotional about things. Calm down. So this really does reflect the masses of where people are. And the people are over the top, too sensitive, too emotional during this time. But there is a possibility of coming together in relationship because the Moon does oppose Venus. Now let's go to— and this was a Saturday, so no, you know, this is a time to go out and meet people. Go out be social, just be together. Now I'm looking at May 3rd, which is Sunday. The Moon all day will be in Scorpio, and in this day the Moon still is opposed Venus. This day it's exactly opposed Venus. So yes, this is a day of meeting people, going out, friendship, relationships. Another thing is I'm looking at that the Mars, Saturn, Neptune, they are in a trinal aspect to the Moon, making things easier for a fresh new start. I just don't particularly care for the Moon being in Scorpio, and I know that in the— let's see— the later hours Okay, it's in Scorpio all day, and it is in the nakshatra all day of Anuradha. Anuradha is a nakshatra that deals specifically with friendship, and with Venus being opposed the Moon, this is a day for friendship. It's a great day for you to go out, be with company, friends, social events, all of that. This is a powerful Moon for— and here's another thing, when the Moon is in Scorpio, I know it's intense emotion, but a lot of times people are extremely devoted during a Scorpio Moon because it gives such a sense of deep passion and feeling things. And yes, it's in a Mars-ruled sign, Scorpio is, so it is emotional and passionate. And this could be a time to meet someone, go out on a date, meet people. So now let's go to the next day, which is a Monday, May 4th. And let me back this up to the middle of the day, which the Moon is in Scorpio most of the day. Yes, I think it will leave Scorpio by the evening. Let's see, it will leave Scorpio by— no, it's in Scorpio all day because it's not till the 5th that it, it goes into Sagittarius. So Going back to Monday, let me take this back. I'm looking at the planets moving right now on my computer screen. The Moon will be in Scorpio throughout Monday, May 4th, but it's going to go into the nakshatra today called Jyesta. And Jyesta is the most intense nakshatra for the Moon to be in. It can deal with jealousy, I know you've heard me say this, but it does. Be careful of people being jealous of you. Don't give them rhyme or reason to take it out on you because there is a lot of jealousy in the air. And the Moon here gets really intense. And don't be jealous of anyone. Remember this, I'm going to tell you this, this is a fact. When you're jealous of other people, you will never get what they have. And when you're happy for people for what they have, then that allows you the opportunity to have those things. So this is the Moon in Scorpio, intensely emotional, deep with feelings, and it's moving towards the end of Scorpio, and this is towards the evening, and that means it's gandanta. Gandanta means out of control. So the later part, the last part of this day, the Moon will be in the last part of Scorpio. Let me see, it will be, yeah, around 10 PM till midnight it is Gandanta. So go to bed early. All right, let's go to the next day. I'm looking at May 5th, and the Moon will be in Sagittarius most all of the day. Let me take this back to noon so we know. Yes, all day the Moon will be in Sagittarius, and it will be in the nakshatra called Mula. And Mula is about destruction. Clearing the air. And sometimes Moola can deal with self-destruction. So don't be self-destructive today. Watch yourself, watch what you say, watch what you do, because this is not going to help you. But Moola can also deal with healing to a certain extent. It deals with the root, getting to the core and the bottom of things. It is a sharp nakshatra. It is a very, a opinionated nakshatra in sign being in Sagittarius. Now it is coming into a place where Jupiter is opposing the Moon, but it will be much better tomorrow. Today is a day that you can use your critical thinking to correct things in your life, particularly your own behaviors. Do not be self-destructive. And I'm also looking at the Saturn-Mars being in, in a square position to this Moon. This can deal with home and family problems around this. And I'm also looking at Mars is squaring Jupiter. Now that was yesterday as well as today. Mars is square Jupiter. And that gives a little push, an added push for energy and action. And the Moon being in Sagittarius makes Jupiter more powerful, so this could be a high-energy day. Now, another aspect that's going on that's important is that Mercury is square Pluto, and so the Moon being in Moola which can be destructive. And Mercury being square Pluto, be aware that you can obsess about things. Don't let your mind be obsessive-compulsive about things because Mercury is in Aries, moves fast, but this square makes you very compulsive. Slow that down. Now let's go to Wednesday, May 6th, and this is a day that's interesting because Mercury is in a position where Mercury and Ketu are in a trine. This can bring thoughts and feelings and conversations about the past. Watch how things go today. This will be— you'll be regurgitating things and meeting people and events that remind you of stuff. Maybe a déjà vu feeling's going on today. Now the Moon is in Sagittarius all day today, but it is in the nakshatra Purva Ashada, and that is ruled by— that is ruled— no, this is ruled by Venus. Very beautiful nakshatra. Jupiter is aspecting the Moon today by opposition. This is a great day to go out and meet people, fall in love. Venus relationships— the Moon's nakshatra is ruled by Venus and it is aspected by Jupiter going to the 7th house. Beautiful, beautiful day. But I will say the Mars and Saturn are in a square to the Moon, and that particularly means that, well, things around the household could go haywire. Even electricity problems with gadgets or things around the house could break. So be aware of that. And if your mother's around, check on her. There could be some minor things that she needs help with, so that's important for you to know. All right, now let's go to the last day of this week. This is Thursday, May 7th, and the Moon will be in Sagittarius most all of the day, but by the evening hours around— well, no, it's not evening, it's late afternoon, 3:30 in the afternoon Central Daylight Time— the Moon will move into Capricorn. But for most of the day, it's going to be in Uttara Ashada. Uttara Ashada is— the ashadas deal with truth and fact-finding, truthfulness. And this is where some truths will probably come out on this day. Why do I say that? The Moon is aligning with Pluto. Pluto digs deep to get to the bottom of the things. Moon-Pluto, today. And let me see, Pluto today, yesterday the 6th and the 7th, I have Pluto turns retrograde. Oh my goodness, no wonder I'm seeing all this Pluto energy. Pluto's about, well, deep dark stuff. And let me say this, when we go through Pluto transits, we feel like it's gut-wrenching because We're having to give up something that we feel like we must have, and it hurts. But I guarantee you, what you're having to give up is not growth-producing, whether you know it or not. This is truthful. And 2 years from now, you will look back and you'll say, thank God that happened, because I couldn't be who I am or where I am without Pluto, eliminating in your life that which is not growth-producing. Now, Pluto in and of itself stationing today means that plutonic energy is happening around the world, and the Moon is with it. So this is about basically major changes. Pluto's change— Pluto deals with control too, do not get into a mode where you feel like you want to control everything. Because here's, here's the most important thing: don't worry about things you have no control over. It's a waste of energy and time. Worry about the things you do have control over and the things that you need to change for your highest growth and highest progress. That's what Pluto will teach you, especially during this whole week while it's stationing and turning retrograde. Remember I was saying before there were no planets retrograde? Now we have Pluto, and Pluto is waking us up. Pluto is major, major transformation. So with this, this completes the first week in May, and we have a lot going on. Yes, I do want you to be open and aware that the end of May we're going to come into an incredible change that will change our planet completely, forever, transform it. There's going to be a new awakening coming. Get ready. This is the month that it will transpire, and we're going to have some really amazing things happening. In the months of June and July. So get ready for these transformational changes. This is the month that's all happening. So with that, I hope you'll join me for the second week of May coming up here quite soon. Thank you.
