Bringing the Stars Down to Earth: May 2025

This week in Vedic Astrology: Happy Thursday - it's Jupiter's day!

Last month we discussed Saturn, the big daddy of karma, and how that was enough to keep us on our toes for the next 2.5 years. Saturn will always be there to remind us of where we need to do the work and shift our attitudes.

But now Jupiter the “Guru” planet has moved into Gemini on May 14. This is cool because Jupiter is expansive: it’s the planet that brings us support and blessings. It can possibly bring us increased financial gains. In Gemini it brings communication, learning, travel and better business partnerships. Awesome. Which one will it bring? Depends on where it is placed in your chart of course...

Okay – so that was the good news. In Jyotish (Vedic Astrology), we also use the North & South Nodes of the moon. These two bad boys have great impact on our well-being. 

It’s so important to know what areas we should be watching out for with these two. The mischief and big life lessons they bring can leave us feeling unsure of what and why all THAT just happened to us. 

This transit is here for 18 months. So best to fortify and make sure you are not the actor but the director, so to speak, of your own life’s amazing play. Their transit starts May 18. Your chart will tell you the areas of your life where this will be playing out.

The world around us may be unsteady. AI is skyrocketing (as predicted by the planets). There’s global unrest. It is so vital to keep our small vessels steady and tethered to what is TRUE. 

This means your practice should take center stage. Your health should take center stage. Remain constant in the knowledge that you are a DIVINE being.

I am here to help. Hope to see you in class or for a Vedic Astrology reading.
