Hi everyone,

Happy new week for all of us.

My name is Miriam Ashkenazi and I'm a kabbalistic astrologer at the Kabbalah Center.

I'm excited to share with you this week's cosmic opportunities,

The week of May 17 until May 23.

Every day,

Every moment,

Every week we're presented with cosmic opportunities to transform,

To grow,

To evolve.

Some of them might be a little bit more challenging,

Some of them will be more supportive,

But we can definitely learn how to utilize all of them for our benefit.

So let's hear what's happening this week and how we can take advantage of this energy.

So let's start with May 17,

Sunday.

We experience one of the most positive cosmic aspects between the sun and the planet Jupiter.

There is an opening for abundant amount of optimism,

Vitality,

High spirit,

Confidence,

And good fortune.

Opportunities can be all around us and we should all be very aware and cognizant when opportunities knocks on our door.

It's a day that is very much recommended to broaden our outlook of life.

Take advantage of any opportunity to travel,

Study,

And experience new exciting activities.

Take the time on May 17 to connect and align yourself to this gift from the universe and open your arms to the tremendous amount of light and blessing that the Creator want to share with all of us.

On May 18,

There is a beautiful aspect between Mercury,

Which is in Gemini right now,

And the moon in Aries.

We have the potential to be very engaging and outgoing.

This aspect can make it easy to talk to others and get along with others,

Even though we can get very opinionated at times.

On May 18 is a day to be around people and create new friendships.

Our people and social skills can improve and our intuitive abilities to understand people and quickly form emotional connection can improve as well.

Let's take advantage of that positive cosmic opportunity and support and interact and connect with others on May 18.

Let's look at May 19.

On May 19,

It's the last day that the sun is in the sign of Taurus for this year.

When the sun is in the last degree in any sign,

It's most evolved,

Wise,

And potentially transformed stage of the sun's visit in this sign.

What does it mean and how does it affect our life?

On May 19,

We have the opportunity to connect to all the lessons that we've learned in this month.

On May 19,

We have the opportunity for the last time this year to overcome all the challenging aspects of the sign of Taurus.

Getting out of our comfort zone,

Seeing the elements that require change in our life and choosing to change them will be a very powerful approach to end the month of Taurus.

Let's take advantage of the sun's last degree in the sign of Taurus and proactively choose to transform all that the sign of Taurus is typically struggling with.

This will be a great energy boost and support for the upcoming new month and new energy that is about to enter.

Then on May 20,

The sun is moving into the sign of Gemini.

It is interesting how each sign of the zodiac is placed in the perfect order to help us move out,

Move up,

Evolve and transform aspects that a previous sign is usually struggling with.

This is the beauty of the cosmos and the beauty of creation.

We are coming out of the month of Taurus where the energy can potentially be heavy and stagnant in our life and we are entering the month of Gemini where the potential energy is completely the opposite.

As Raffberg sharing with us in his book Kabbalistic Astrology,

Gemini are speed balls.

While most people require time to avoid time to absorb information before taking an action,

Gemini seems to gather information and react to it simultaneously.

If they see it,

They get it and they're on the move.

They have a remarkable ability to grasp all sides of questions,

Synthesize viewpoints and come to a decision almost at once.

Today on May 20th,

Let's connect to those wonderful aspects of the sign of Gemini and welcome the flow of energy,

The ability to enjoy social life,

Have fun,

Engage with friends and adapt to any change that is taking place around us.

Now on May 21st,

The move is passing by Uranus.

Both of them are in Taurus and forming for few hours a nice aspect with Mars which is in Pisces.

This can be a great day to take an action and support a cause that you believe in.

Since the Moon is involved with this aspect,

We are encouraged to take an action that will allow us to connect to someone in a more personal level,

Empathize with them and offer care and support.

Sometimes it's much easier to support others or great causes from far away but on May 21st,

We are encouraged to take an actual action and engage personally with making the world a better place for someone we care about or a group of people that are struggling and need our support right now.

On May 22nd,

The Moon is entering into the sign of Gemini which signifies the energy of the new Moon.

The time where according to the Kabbalistic calendar,

The sign of Gemini is actually taking charge and having a strong effect on all of us.

This upcoming month has a tremendous potential to connect to the light force of the Creator.

Mercury,

The ruler of Gemini and the month of Sivan,

The Hebrew month,

The Kabbalistic month of Sivan is the planet nearest the Sun,

Our source of light and energy.

In Kabbalistic astrology,

Physical proximity indicates a spiritual resemblance.

As the closest planet to the Sun,

Mercury has the greatest spiritual similarity to that star.

As you might expect,

The Sun represents a spiritual dimension above the physical world that we inhabit,

A world connected more directly to the light that made us.

Mercury shares this potential connection with the light and if the planet shares it,

So does the month and the sign.

On May 23rd,

It's officially the Kabbalistic new month,

So happy new month for all of us.

There is an abundance of Gemini's energy in the universe since the Sun,

The Moon,

Venus and Mercury are all in the sign of Gemini.

Gemini is one of the most curious signs of the zodiac.

The level of curiosity and desire to learn and acquire knowledge in all level can sometimes stand in the way of having a more meaningful connection and experience of life.

One of the best spiritual recommendations that any Gemini can live by or any of us in this particular month is to linger a little bit longer.

Anything that we choose to do this month,

Let's give it some time.

Let's give it a chance before quickly jumping and moving to something that seems a bit better or more attractive.

Gemini tend to change their mind very quickly,

Always attracted to something that seems better or more interesting.

Let's make sure that on May 23rd,

We commit and engage in anything that we choose to do or to be part of without a temptation to flee or disengage as soon as we are bored.

I'm wishing all of us to have a beautiful week.

Let's utilize this amazing transformation of signs from Taurus to Gemini and take advantage of all the positive aspects of this week.
