May’s full moon, known as the Flower Moon will rise on May 23rd
Astrology buffs coin this as a time for positive change, new growth, and transformation.
But how much do you know about the astrological event?
Celebrity astrologer Inbaal Honigman, interactive tarot and psychic reading platform Tarotoo has gone into depth on the meaning behind the latest lunar occurrence. She is also explaining which star signs will be most affected by it.
One sign is ready to embark on adventure this month, while another will feel ‘unusually upbeat and sociable’, after being most closely linked to the moon.
When is the Full Moon in May?
Inbaal Honigman confirmed that the flower moon will occur on May 23rd, and will at its fullest at around 2:53 pm Irish time.
The Full Moon ‘period’ is three days long; so one day before, the actual day of, and the day after the Full Moon.
Astrologically speaking, the effects of the Full Moon can be felt for the entire three day period.
What is the Full Moon in May?
The Full Moon is always in the opposite sign to the Sun sign of that particular date.
On the 23rd of May, the Sun is in Gemini, and the astrological opposite sign of Gemini is Sagittarius.
Look at the Zodiacal wheel, and you’ll immediately see which sign is opposite which. That’s a quick and easy way to find out which sign the Full Moon is in.
The Full Moon in Sagittarius this May is influenced by the outgoing and generous sign of the Archer. It is an auspicious time for making travel plans, asking for a pay increase, or embarking on an adventure.
Who will be most affected?
The three signs that will feel this Full Moon the most are Sagittarius, Gemini and Cancer.
According to Honigman, Sagittarius will feel excitable and giddy during this full moon.
Sagittarians are excitable and giddy most of the time, but the energy of the full moon in their sign will push them into feeling more creative, more empowered, and happy to take any risk in order to have fun.
Gemini will feel the impact as this Full Moon takes place during Gemini season.
Their usually fun and frivolous demeanor will reach fever pitch, and they’ll be hopping from party to party all night.
Cancer is the sign most closely linked to the moon, so every full moon touches this sensitive sign to a greater or lesser extent.
Cancerians will feel unusually upbeat and sociable, a far cry from their indoorsy, family-minded persona. Find them wearing feathers, dancing on a float somewhere.
