The main theme for May is “IT’S TIME TO CHOOSE”.

As we approach a major point of transition with the Full Moon and total lunar eclipse at end of the month, we are being challenged to question, reflect, release, choose and commit to personal authenticity and the path of essence. This challenge invites us to choose and choose well. The choices require leaving behind old outdated beliefs, conditioning, suffering, addictions and other limiting behaviors. This is it. It’s time to choose. Who are you? Who are you not?

Sometimes it is easier to react to who you are not rather than searching for who you are. We have been imprinted and conditioned by a set of collective patterns that have greatly influenced our identities. The recent disruption in routines and behaviors has given us a chance to re-examine what is important to us, what we resonate with and what we no longer wish to blindly put up with. With the coming transition and change in vibration on the planet (identified by the Toltecs as the shift from the 5th sun to the 6th sun), we have the opportunity to reset ourselves by choosing wisely to follow our hearts, to be guided by essence, and to live our lives in greater balance, harmony and authentic self-expression.

Choices this month should be committed ones followed by strong discipline and good boundaries and protection. You may find yourself stretching to the edge of your comfort level as you face a truth about who you are not. It will take courage to eliminate people, tasks, routines and behaviors that do not support who you are becoming. If whom you are around or what you are doing with your time does not feel satisfying in some way, it is time to examine the choices around staying or leaving that situation.

This month is about choosing your path. Will you choose a path that includes suffering and bad habits? Or will you choose the path of spirit always moving towards the vibration of love, hope and beauty? There is no redemption in suffering. It is time to look through the veil of illusion and reach through it to the other side and into a new landscape of endless possibilities. We are at the choice point and your choices this month will carry a potency that will influence who you are, what you do, where you are and with whom.

Good intentions, insights and inspired choices require concrete and practical action to take root. The month is also fertile with earth energy that can germinate and grow the seeds of a new direction you are choosing for yourself. Cooperation is also key. Gone are the days of believing that there is more power in doing everything yourself. We are in a new paradigm that seeks community, partnership, and collaboration instead of being the lone wolf.

As we navigate this month of change and choice, there will be times of feeling a great vulnerability as identities are shed like an old skin. If you have ever had a pet snake, they can be very grumpy when they are shedding, but shedding is inevitable and without shedding, there is no growth. Resistance is also alive and well this month. It is a discipline to keep going, to keep moving forward no matter what. It will be hard work, but if you do your homework, you will get the rewards.

How the month shows up:

YOU PERSONALLY
This is a huge month of questioning who you are, mostly by telling the truth about who you are not. There is a great opportunity to extricate one’s self from all conditioning and imprinting that has influenced your identity up to this point. Examining the should and should nots of your life should be very enlightening as you evaluate whose rules are they anyway. As you make choices in either bringing in something new, or eliminating something that needs to go, you can set new rules for yourself, ones that work for you.

Don’t be surprised if in your self-evaluation you discover that much of your identity has to do with what others expect of you. If you were to eliminate the expectations, how different would your choices be? You may go through a period of time feeling like you don’t know who you are anymore. This is a reasonable process considering the massive change and mystery around what the future will manifest.

Remember that you are in the driver’s seat and this is an opportunity for you to decide where you go from here. The wisest choices are the ones that are guided from the heart and an astute observation of what makes you happy. Choose against what depletes you and is not satisfying about your life. In doing so, you will create space for the right expression of yourself to manifest.

RELATIONSHIPS
What are your current relationships based on? Are they feeding you or draining you? Do they have your best interests in mind or their own?

The truth may be difficult to face however the right choices will provide energy and freedom.  This is a good month to evaluate who is in your life and how they contribute to either a positive path of spirit or a negative path of false personality and addiction. Have the courage to say no. Have the wisdom to set good boundaries.

If you are clear about your needs and where you are willing to meet another half way, a relationship will either grow and deepen or it will go by the wayside. Either way, you need to trust that when you put out your intentions, the relationships that are right, will be there, and those that are not, will disappear. This applies as well to your relationship with yourself and your personality patterns. If you are on the path of spirit, your choices to be your best self will determine what shifts. Expect times of confusion, irritability and frustration as well as times of incredible insight, inspiration and hope.

HEALTH AND THE PHYSICAL BODY
This is a very fertile time when earth energy is abundant and strong for physical vitality, strength and healing.  You can expect the body to remind you in not so subtle ways about where it needs attention and more care. The not so subtle hints may be irritating and cause some impatience. It is important to be compassionate and loving towards your physical body and to be in acceptance and forgiveness for anything past that is showing up that you may be in self judgment about.

The good news is that the body will respond positively and quickly to the instructions for healing and well-being that you give it. The body is your responsibility and you always have a choice around how you take care of it. This is also a good time to look at where you may have given your power away in the past to others who have defined, diagnosed, judged, and had definite opinions about what you should and should not do. It is time to take that power back, set some new rules, and re-stablish communication with yourself, your health, your body and your well-being.

BUSINESS PARTNERSHIPS AND PROJECTS
A lot of change through choice is possible this month. Those who have been forced to change work, location or career, have an opportunity to examine where truly to put their energy. Those who have been offered a new possibility will have to evaluate if it is right or if it is just the same old thing being recreated with a new look. Does what you are doing with your time and who you are doing it with resonate with you?

The key here is not if it is challenging or not challenging. It is important if you like it. Does what you do and whom you do it with give you satisfaction? Are you inspired even if you work really hard? Does it feel like you are contributing your medicine in service? Are you having fun? These are questions that will indicate whether something is right for you or not. This is the month to choose to stay, to quit, to change, to ask for more, to upgrade your havingness and work on your self-worth.

It takes courage to take the step into the work of essence and the heart when you have been choosing something less than out of fear of losing your security. We always say that decisions made from fear are not made from the right space and will never be satisfying.

ENVIRONMENT
Sometimes people just end up with the leftovers, the family heirlooms, the gifts from relatives, the furniture that came with the house, a giveaway that someone was complete with but that still had a life, something that was not quite right but was on sale and hard to resist because of the good deal. Take a look around you. If you had a blank canvas, what would you put on it? If the space was empty how would you fill it without compromising or needing to accommodate someone else?

Look at your environment. Do you like where you live? If not, why? How are you using your space? Are you honoring the land? Do you appreciate the natural environment around your space?

It is time to choose. Either you are completely in acceptance with where you are and begin to really feed your space and environment with love and energy, seeing the beauty around you. Or, you choose to make a change and then follow it up with discipline, commitment, and a good solid practical plan.

Talk is cheap. It is action that shows the universe you are serious. Just grumbling about your space or the weather will not change it. Do whatever you can to choose to see beauty and spirit in everything. This will change your perspective and outlook on your life and where you are in it.

DATES AND TIME FRAMES
May 1-7: There is a restlessness as we begin the month. The energy supports curiosity, questioning, and holding space for the unusual, unknown and unexpected. If you find yourself feeling off kilter, give yourself some neutral space with compassion and understanding. Do this for others as well.

Choices that are needed will become apparent. Don’t overthink what is intuitive. You may get strong insights about a new direction. Make sure that you are bring inspired towards something instead of away from something you are resisting. With that said, it is also a good time to begin to examine who you are not, where your boundaries and edges and rules hit against other people’s expectations, and where your comfort zone ends and the mysterious realm of the unknown begins.

It can be a confusing time but it is also a fertile one and good for deepening your relationship with the earth. Use the earth for grounding and think of yourself as planting the seeds for more authenticity and true self-expression.

May 8-16: The best way to describe this time frame is one of “massive growth”. Sometimes when spirit pushes you in a direction just beyond your comfort level, or a huge clearing or deep insight occurs, people can experience a healing crisis or a massive “growth period”. This is uncomfortable but the only good choice is to move forward as a growth period is always followed by a download of more wisdom, vitality, power and clarity.

Stay out of fear. Life is unstable right now, a bit like a three-legged stool. What you have known in the past to provide stability and security in the material world has been shaken loose and is going through change. You have a choice to hold on to your attachments or to cut loose into the unknown with trust in your inner stability, self-respect and inner power. There is no growth in holding on and holding back.

May 11: New Moon in Taurus is Tuesday, May 11 at 12:59 PM Mountain Daylight Time (MDT). We examine our stability and what keeps us grounded. This is a very good moon to work with the earth, to fertilize and empower new growth, ideas, projects and intentions. I tis also a good time to focus on health, the body, self-esteem, self-expression and inner truth. Who are you?

Take some time today and just allow the earth to hold and support you. If a project or a part of your life feels ungrounded, ask to be supported in ways you have not allowed before. See what happens.

May 17-23: We are nearing the transition point of change and the pressure is on. Watch for unexpected events that could be explosive or include physical breakage. Anything solid is reacting to a change in vibration and that includes your physical body. If something breaks, don’t take it personally but see it as a sign that there is change.

This is an important time to be proactive with your choices and really conscious about the choices you have and the right ones to make. Keep circling around to how you feel about something or someone rather than to trust your analytical mind about what you think might be right or what you think is possible or impossible. It may be hard at times to even remember that you have a choice as things are rapidly changing around you. But you always do and you always have the power to make one.

May 24-31: An intense time that has the potential for a truly ecstatic higher centered experience of positive power and manifestation where you really see the light at the other end of the tunnel. This experience is one of many threads coming together to weave a new tapestry, one with more vibrancy of color, texture and dimension. On the other hand, you may feel a bit chaotic and despairing that all the known patterns you are used to living with are now fragmented and frayed. If you don’t have a good grip on who you are, you may be truly confused.

Go back to asking the questions of who you are not, what you don’t want to be doing and whom you no longer wish to be around, to get more clarity on your path. Timing is everything so be patient. You may get glimpses of how life may unfold for you and trusting in right timing will calm the fears of missing out. Keep your vibration as high as possible by focusing on beauty, compassion, love and hope. Anything is possible especially if you make the right choices.
