For the next few weeks Mood Alert will operate to a lowered extent of functionality.

Below is an estimated prediction for moods over this coming period

Overall mood influence:

Coming weeks will be heavily dominated by the alignment of the Sun and Jupiter.

Likely mood traits will include a more expansive, generous and out going attitude with a frivolous sense of enjoyment.

There may also be a more adventurous and free natured disposition with liberated, unchained emotions that extend towards a broader understanding with others. This may include fun filled emotions, but also the tendency to exaggerated, or over extravagant moods and gestures.

Particular attention should be given to financial investments or over lavish expenditure that could sew seeds for considerable future consequences and any disposition in this direction should be treated with the utmost precaution.

At the same time following weeks see the possibility of unbridled horizons with the potential to throw off restraints and enjoy life to the full.

Below is a close estimate of likely moods over this coming period.

7th - 8th May 2012

Only days after the Full Moon this constitutes a mood period with heightened nervous restlessness, anxiety and tension.

At the same time there may be the flux of emotion between agitated, unstable feelings, and those of an altogether more liberated, fun filled nature.

Under these circumstances emotions will be contrasted by the restriction of a narrow, calculated, and disciplined outlook and that of a more expansive and rewarding nature.

Small ideas may give rise to major changes, and the power of imagination will - for better or worse - inspire or provoke, a path to life altering circumstances.

8th - 9th May 2012

A sensitive and delicately inclined atmosphere of the utmost complexity.

Here there will be heightened, tense and anxious emotions but also the abandonment into a peculiar mix of feelings. These include a doubtful, hesitant, and wavering attitude contrasted by a more dynamic, forceful, and ambitious disposition that strives to break from convention.

At the same time there may be a strong inclination to less inhibited feelings that pull towards an enjoyment of new and more exciting experiences.

9th - 10th May 2012

Sharpened mood feelings with high intensity will be contrasted by those of a more delicate and refined awareness.

In addition thought provoking emotions may induce major changes.

At the same time there may be an instinctual leaning towards a more carefree but disciplined lifestyle highlighting the balance between pleasures and rewards: The risk of stability against unbridled hubris: That area of ourselves that loses sense of reality to incur significant future consequences.

By contrast those less pressured by personal demands and circumstances may come to revel in this freedom filled atmosphere: The joy of living; as well as an appreciation of the simple things of life that bring well being, harmony, and above all the feeling that despite any hardships there is an area of personal detachment to offer relief, hope, and ambition.

10th - 11th May 2012

Broadly similar day to the previous alert.

Unsettled feelings are likely with a narrow divide between practical, well judged emotions and those of a more risky, adventurous, ambitious, or carefree nature.

Frustrations may arise with a conflict of purpose between domestic relationships that create needless differences of a headstrong nature. These may provoke hasty decisions, crisis, or an illogical decline into petty arguments.

At the same time there may be the alternative towards a more intense, self rewarding atmosphere, that although self absorbed has the potential to draw others into a shared atmosphere of fun and togetherness.

11th - 12th May 2012

A noticeably reduced mood intensity compared to previous days. However there may still be a degree of heightened emotions with an awkward balance between both states of mind:

This may see unstable, eccentric, or wayward inclinations combine to produce a frustrating, limited, and challenging climate of feeling.

Opposites are sure to abound, with driving ambition tempered by the hand of more limiting feelings. To some extent these may take away the sting of aggression but result in an overwhelming force of uncertainty. Indeed those of a sensitive nature may find themselves in a state of deep depression, with a failing sense of purpose and ambition.

Relief will come from a degree of detachment putting distance between the perceived problem and the real issues that most need to be addressed.

Either way the escape route is likely to be a compromise between insecurity and the fire that provides ignition to major life altering changes. In this case careful consideration should be given to whether these changes are really necessary or just a response to circumstances of a frustrating and temporary nature.

12th - 13th May 2012

Once again this is likely to be a mood of noticeably reduced moods and feelings - Very much the equivalent of the emotional doldrums.

Potential traits may include a depleted degree of energy, enthusiasm, and inspiration, or the tendency to see problems rather than solutions.

In this situation the mind set may tend towards an impoverished, limited, and over restrained attitude when more exciting and adventurous inclinations are there to be exploited.

For some this may be a low and deflating period of self confidence, where doubts and insecurities govern the logic of ones circumstances.

It means a firm disposition is necessary to ignore and sideline the negatives from other more welcoming aspects of a mood situation holding considerable potential for self advancement.

13th - 14th May 2012

This may likely be a time of reduced, apprehensive and pessimistic emotions, but also provide the awakening to more expanded and rewarding horizons: It may also arouse the capacity to think and develop new ideas; fresh possibilities of a life changing nature, together with the calculated steps to carry them further.

This mood may suit the ambitious individual to the same extent it provides a soothing calm for those willing and able to relax, free the mind, and take things easy.

By contrast it may prove frustrating for those feeling pressured by uncertainty, or the need to deliver to a short deadline.

Under these circumstances the frustrations posed between the dilemma of lack of understanding in the face of numerous challenging alternatives may become acute. On the other hand it may prove liberating to those just wishing to go with the flow.

14th - 15th May 2012

Highly complex atmosphere with deeply felt sensitivities and wide contrast of emotion.

Feelings may range from fun filled, zestful, or over exaggerated tendencies to those of a stronger element of togetherness, aggression, passion, and the desire to feel loved and wanted.

Differences may be highlighted with the possibility of volatile outbursts but at the same time the desire to mend barriers and work towards a lasting understanding between those around us.

At the same time there may be a gentle, questioning, but uniting force of emotion that draws affection to one another to establish a lasting force of harmony.

Enigmatic, as well as determinative, this mood atmosphere sees unique possibilities capable of enlarging personal relationships and promote an element of shared aims and desires.

15th - 16th May 2012

This is likely to see a mood atmosphere of heightened mental stimulus. This may come laden with erratic, creative, but confused emotions, with a high level of frustration when personal expectations, hopes, and feelings are not fulfilled.

Under these circumstances there may be a divide of emotion between rational and calculated feelings and those of an altogether wilder nature that just throw caution to the wind.

An element of ill considered risk may result in difficulties, but so too the possibility of transcending personal horizons into a greatly enlarged Universe of individual experience.

Disappointments may carry extra weight, but also the power and determination to replace any sense of loss with more meaningful alternatives.

16th - 17th May 2012 - Extreme moods possible.

New Moon tensions are likely to be apparent with challenging and demanding circumstances. Coupled to this there may be strong nervous restlessness, indecision, or the desire to break free from convention.

Feelings may be attached to a high degree of individuality, but also the need to relate to others in a special, affectionate, and caring manner that breaks through existing differences.

Personal tensions may well arise, but so too the desire to harmonise, fulfil, and touch the essence of a more united sense of togetherness.

This period also sees the alignment of the Moon and Uranus.

Frequent visitors to this site will be very much aware that this is out of the top category of mood influencing factors.

Likely traits include erratic, eccentric, or agitated emotions, extreme in their intensity that lead to particularly dramatic events and circumstances.

It cannot be too highly stressed that this is definitely a mood period needy of the most careful attention. It’s risks are capable of ugly, perverse, and extreme reactions, but also the inventiveness and spontaneity to reach beyond the ordinary.

17th - 18th May 2012

With only a few days to the next New Moon moods and emotions are likely to be filled with tense nervous restlessness, anxiety, and apprehension.

At the same time there may be the balancing influence of more tender, calmer feelings that could moderate or filter out the extremist elements of a delicately balanced mood atmosphere.

Under these circumstances problems may assume undue proportions with a frustrated outlook striving for answers in the face of enigmatic impulses that could see problems rather than solutions.

Personal relationships may also come under stress with an added risk of arguments, petty resentments, conflict, or needless strain and dilemmas.

But every force has a reactive effect and in this current mood period may result in a bold, spectacular, and even rebellious manner of expression that circumvents logic to break company from ones ‘usual’ self.

Ideas may abound, with strong feelings for change and variety, or the impetus for expansion into more rewarding horizons of self discovery.

18th - 19th May 2012

With just days to go to the impending New Moon there will be an increased degree of intensity with heightened moods and feelings. At the same time there is likely to be a more absorbed sense of emotion that transports into a strong desire for change and variety: The overwhelming urge to think, taste, and touch beyond the ordinary.

Similarly this atmosphere may introduce apprehensive, worry laden feelings with strong doubts and insecurities. These may easily give way to frustration or friction between others; unlocking hidden thoughts and feelings, but always the desire to sense the warmth of some others persons feeling.

At source this may be a confusing but educative period of self adjustment, igniting awareness towards more rewarding and joy filled states of mind.

Similarly there may be an expansion of motivation and ambition even if it may not be immediately obvious how this may be achievable.

Exciting as well as contradictory, feelings may vacillate into a confusion of purpose with over importance attached to minor dilemmas, but also the possibility to appreciate delicate, considerate, or more caring emotions.

19th - 20th May 2012

Just a day or so to go before the coming New Moon and feelings may be filled with an intense and oppressive degree of anxiety: Emotions may be stretched to the limit, but also the welcome hand of inspiration bringing a zest of ideas and inspiration that make a welcome difference.

There may also be the added stress of strained relationships: So too the challenge of strong purpose filled emotions, thrusting ambition, or the exposure to dilemmas and problems that seem to dwell on the mind to an inordinate extent.

Release may come through music, the love of what is beautiful, or the fulfilling sense of inner harmony that takes pleasure from simple but rewarding answers.

Exasperating as well as rewarding, this is a mood climate capable of major life altering changes. In addition there may be the excitement of aspiring to a higher awakening of values that invite an upwards step to altered horizons of the profoundest nature.

Very often the feeling of that which is missing within ourselves equates to the quest to discover, unlock and unchain inhibitions and let rip the true person that we are. If so then this atmosphere provides the answers to those awkward questions that hold back personal development and look to more adventurous solutions.

This current mood atmosphere may prove a challenge but also set loose the workings of a mechanism that enables one to achieve a more rewarding awareness of their true potential.

We are now just a matter of a few hours away from the Full Moon which this month comes at May 6 th 03:36 UTC, or 23:36 ET: (20:36 PT)

Inevitably as with any immediate Full Moon situation there will be heightened moods and feelings with intense nervous restlessness, agitation, and turbulence.

Under these circumstances there may be an extreme tendency towards wayward, rebellious, aggressive, or highly contentious and confused feelings that contribute towards a strongly charged and divisive atmosphere.

Personal animosities may be quick to surface with an irrational mentality, together with ill considered or spontaneous decisions capable of far reaching consequences.

At the same time there may be apprehensive, worried, or overly concerned emotions with a high element of doubt and insecurity.

Personal relationships may also suffer from an illogical or unwarranted degree of antagonism with neither rhyme nor reason to explain circumstances that may quickly escalate towards crisis level. (more…)

Any Moon/Uranus conjunction is likely to lead to erratic, self willed, eccentric, or out of character emotions with the risk of extreme events and happenings. Indeed this conjunction is often found where lone gunmen (almost always men) go on a mass killing spree creating lurid headlines the world over.

Not every Moon/Uranus alignment provokes this kind of reaction, but on a lesser scale it needs careful handling: Capable of supreme friction within the family setting it has the potential for a detached sense of reality with a significantly altered mood outlook inclined towards extremist tendencies.

This period also sees a massive alignment featuring the Moon, Saturn, Earth, Mercury and Uranus.

Also worthy of note is that this months Full Moon will coincide with Lunar Perigee, when the Moon is closest to the Earth. Not only will it appear bigger, its effects will also be greater, and quite rightly corresponds to a time of immense emotional challenge.

See below for a fuller version of likely moods over this current alert period.

Current alert period.

From bare stripped outlines of stark and evocative dimensions come a burgeoning of leaves and in turn pollen and other substances released when springing forth into blossom.

In tree concentrated areas the sudden effect of this spore release can have significant consequences for the general population. Related allergies will spiral. Not only the well documented effects of usual symptoms associated with hay fever but also more indistinct less defined symptoms that affect both health and mental outlook to a considerable extent.

In any mood situation the explosion of Spring assumes major significance. Not just the physical symptoms but also the effect on feelings and emotions. These may see a diminished sense of focus and direction, with a confused or erratic degree of purpose. In addition there may be a languid, tired, or irritable disposition with a poor sense of motivation.

Paradoxically there may also be an underlying energy and drive but also the frustration of not being able to utilise it to its fullest extent. (more…)

Inevitably this will lead to incredibly heightened moods and feelings that for some will approach crisis level. Indeed this current mood situation has all the ingredients for turbulent, disordered, unsettled, and very volatile emotions that may lead to extreme situations of the highest level.

Under these circumstances personal levels of restraint, tolerance, and patience may be considerably reduced. Arguments and contentious encounters may flare up on the merest pretext with a genuine relish towards confrontational episodes even if just for the sake of it.

At the same time there may be extremely apprehensive, concerned, or worry filled emotions capable of igniting irrational, erratic, and fear laden emotions that some may find disturbing.

Indeed those prone to panic attacks may find this period especially challenging. (more…)

In addition there may be intense nervous restlessness with unsettled, frustrated, confused and sometimes agitated moods and feelings.

Under these circumstances there may be an acute and vivid sense of perception throwing problems into stark focus, but also an escape mechanism allowing a broadening into less stressful states of mind.

At the same time there may be impatient, hurried, or spontaneous decisions that carry substantial risks of judgement. Here it cannot be too highly emphasised that the gamble of major financial investment or expenditure may result in profound consequences with more losers than winners.

In other words it pays to tread warily before resorting to any hasty, ill judged actions that counter to all logic appear to carry the gloss of delusive certainty. (more…)

Under these circumstances emotions may waver with apprehensive, impatient, hesitant, confused, or frustrated feelings intermeshed with those of a more calculated, disciplined, and assertive manner.

In this current mood atmosphere the tumblers of celestial influence are capable of an amazingly varied pattern. On the one hand the stifling hand of restraint, moderation, and limited horizons, and on the other the tantalising attraction to more inviting, exciting, out going and adventurous alternatives.

At the same time there may be a tendency towards impulsive, spontaneous, or out of character decisions that could pose substantial risk to ones financial stability. (more…)

As a result feelings and emotions may enjoy a liberated and freer extent of expression with a better sense of optimism, vitality, and encouragement.

This only serves to illustrate that yesterdays insurmountable problem can swiftly become a complete irrelevance. It also highlights the importance of not attaching too much attention to seemingly daunting moods and dilemmas, when very shortly other more illuminating emotions take their place.

To some extent however this will still represent a self engrossed mood situation but with more of a shared element of companionship and togetherness.

Under these circumstances there is the likelihood of a split between a practical, hard edged, logical, and systematic disposition and that of a more carefree, adventurous, and even reckless outlook. (more…)

This is now likely to be a time of erratic, or displaced emotions with strong contrasts. On the one hand there may be powerful, alert and purpose filled ambitions, and on the other the heavy burden of doubt that stifles enterprise, enthusiasm, and optimism.

At the same time there may be lowered self esteem, with a flattened sense of purpose or reduced confidence and zestfulness.

In essence there is likely to be a stirring conflict of emotion that sees the more yielding, indeterminative or hesitant aspects of this mood atmosphere contrasted by a strong reactive force of feeling. This may result in aggressive, frustrated or divisive emotions coupled with a deep sense of isolation and/or confused degree of perspective.

Under these circumstances needless suspicions, paranoia’s or conflicts may swiftly create conditions of highly unbalanced dimensions. For some these may tend towards crisis level and result in a distorted, warped, and twisted degree of logic or awareness.

In addition there may be a tendency towards escapism in its limitless guises. This may entail an above average reliance on drugs, alcohol, retail therapy, overeating, or whatever takes the mind away from seemingly pressing circumstances or dull monotony. (more…)

In this respect each person will have their own reasons for their actions but may be precipitated by seasonal factors not fully understood.

Whatever the case it illustrates the supreme need that when faced with these thoughts there is need to consider that the next day may bring considerably more changed alternatives of an altogether more optimistic nature.
