Astrological Forecast for May 4-11, 2025: Lunar Movements and Ritual for Taurus and Pluto's Retrograde Phase

Mayhem ensues from May 4 to 11, 2025 with a fiery spark, according to astrologer Rocío Sabatini of Clarín. She warns, "This first week of May takes us from Leo's royal throne to Scorpio's mystical abyss, with key stops to rattle your beliefs, bonds, and certainties. Keep your eyes and ears open!"

What Does the Moon Have in Store This Month?

Here's a sneak peek at the lunar happenings as per Rocío (@rowsabatini):

Sunday, May 4: The Moon in Leo brings theatrics to your day, while Pluto retrograde serves a reminder that true power comes from within. High drama, but with introspection.
Monday, May 5: With the Moon still in Leo, communication becomes lively as Mercury (the messenger planet) in Aries forms a sextile with Jupiter in the dual signs. Speedy ideas, honest messages, and engaging conversations: speak your mind, but keep it light-hearted.
Tuesday, May 6, and Wednesday, May 7: The Moon dives into meticulous Virgo, so cleanup time for your thoughts and decisions is on the agenda. On Tuesday, Venus (the love goddess) in Aries sextiles Pluto retrograde in Aquarius: intense passions, electric connections, magnetism that could either ignite emotions or pierce your heart.
Thursday, May 8, Friday, May 9, and part of Saturday, May 10: The Moon settles into Libra, demanding balance, grace, and a touch of finesse amidst the chaos. Perfect timing for pressing conversations, negotiations, or reaching an agreement in the midst of chaos.
Saturday, May 11, and Sunday, May 12: The Moon moves into Scorpio, making the cosmic scene intense, passionate, and magnetic. On Saturday, Mercury (the messenger planet) joins the scene in Taurus: thoughts become deliberate but steady. Time to speak sensibly, with both feet on the ground and your heart ready to conquer.

Embrace the Taurus Energy with Pluto Retrograde

To align with the powerful Taurus energy and the retrograde Pluto, the astrologer suggests a root-focused rebirth ritual. Perform it between May 11 and 15, when Mercury enters Taurus and Pluto is already in reverse gear. Here's the rundown.

Essential Components for the Ritual:

A green or brown candle.
A plant or pot with soil (already owned).
A small object representing transformation (stone, leaf, paper note with a word).
Sandalwood, patchouli, or cinnamon incense.
A notebook or paper and pencil.

Step-by-Step of the Ritual:

1. Prepare the space. Find a peaceful corner, light some incense and a candle. Sit comfortably, back straight, and feet grounded. Connect with your breath and envision roots growing from your body into Mother Earth.2. Reflect. In your notebook, answer these two burning questions: What anchors me today but hinders my growth? What long-term stability do I aspire to cultivate?3. Symbolic Act. Take your chosen object and hold it close. Verbalize or mentally declare: "I release this symbol of the past to fertilize the Earth and pave the way for the future."4. Bury your symbol of change, seed of transformation, in the Earth (pot soil). Visualize as the Earth (Taurus) cultivates it, and Pluto, from below, works its powerful alchemy.5. Close the Ritual. Speak your thanks aloud. You can say: "I trust in the transformative power within me. I am stability in motion." Allow the candle to burn out or extinguish it with respect.

This ritual enables you to stay connected with patience, courage, and detachment from the old, so that your true essence can flourish. Ideal if you're working on self-love, abundance, self-esteem, or long-lasting habits.

With Mercury entering Taurus, communication shifts: it becomes slower, more tangible, grounded, and practical. There's no need to rush as this Mercury values quality over quantity. Ponder, compose your thoughts, and ensure your words are sincere and substantial.

Mercury in Taurus: 5 Key Points You Should Know

The astrologer offers insights into communicating effectively with Mercury in Taurus:

1. Less rapid-fire, more grounded words

Avoid talking too much. Mercury in Taurus doesn't respond well to fast talking or lack of thought. Before speaking, breathe. Think: Is it necessary? Is it clear? Is it honest? This Mercury values quality over quantity.

2. Pick your words carefully

Taurus appreciates simplicity, elegance, and a sense of harmony. Utilize this transit to craft texts, emails, or messages with a clear and harmonious structure. Well-crafted words have the power to open doors.

3. Speak with a steady tone

Taurus isn't moody or dramatic; it's stable, firm, and gentle. It speaks from a place of inner strength. In debates, use a calm and resolute tone, without interrupting the other. With substance comes victory.

4. Address what you truly value

An excellent time to discuss money, long-term goals, enduring relationships, or matters close to your heart. Superfluous chatter doesn't resonate with this energy. If something doesn't resonate with you, it's better to pause and choose your words wisely.

5. Meaningful silences

Mercury in Taurus values silence as well as words. A well-timed pause can be as powerful as a spoken statement. Allow your words time to marinate and mature before speaking them.

Bonus: Write your intentions

Express your intentions, ideas, and ambitions by hand on nice paper. Think: What do I want to communicate more vividly, sincerely, and groundedly? This Mercury supports manifestations, affirmations, crucial letters, and lasting plans.

Keyphrase for this transit: "My words echo, my silences resonate."
