The Word is Mightier
We are entering a month in which the very air seems saturated with words. The world is speaking — and speaking rather loudly. It’s a time of heightened mental agility: learning, travelling, lively conversations, and message notifications pinging like a jazz percussionist. Information flows at the speed of thought, and if you’ve been searching for an answer — well, it might just pop into your mind unannounced.
Words, much like in the finest days of alchemy, have regained their power to become tangible. What is spoken takes shape; what is written gains force; and even an offhand remark might build a bridge — or burn it. So, before you speak, ask yourself: are you creating a new reality?
The New Moon on May 27th, at 7 degrees of Gemini, sets this tempo. The Sun and Moon join Mercury — quick-witted, eloquent, and, charmingly, at home in his own sign. Add Uranus to the mix, that unruly genius of surprise, and you’ve got a sparkling cocktail of fresh ideas, clever detours, and bold intellectual gambits.
Jupiter, also in Gemini until June 10th, encourages expansion not through authority or labour, but through dialogue, adaptability, and the willingness to learn. In truth, fortune now favours those who know how to listen — and how to speak at just the right moment.
The sky is largely in harmony. The planets form a benevolent bisextile configuration — imagine a supportive cosmic push on your back, nudging you in the right direction. The exception: a tense square involving Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune, which muddies the waters of politics, slows legal processes, and generally causes the bureaucratic gears to grind (but not turn). If you can avoid administrative entanglements or court battles, do so.
Otherwise, the stage is set, and the spotlight is yours. Plan your travels. Enrol in that course. Launch the website. Start the campaign. It's a brilliant time for interviews, buying gadgets, clearing out your home or office, and even finding love online — or at least a truly enjoyable flirtation.
Bloggers, journalists, teachers, and fellow wordsmiths — this is your hour. A little financial rain may fall your way (not to be confused with a downpour of debt), especially if you know how to pitch your message with style. Presentations, forums, public appearances, and exams are likely to shine — not just succeed, but dazzle.
A budding romance? Certainly possible. It may begin with a clever joke, a sharp reply, or an unexpected text. Wit opens the door; curiosity walks you through it. Just a word of caution — children may be especially scatterbrained, pets unusually unpredictable, and paperwork prone to mysterious errors. Double-check everything.
This lunar cycle invites us all to become mental acrobats — nimble, light-footed, and curious. Here, the victor is not the loudest voice, but the most persuasive one; not the brute force, but the well-chosen phrase; not the know-it-all, but the ever-curious learner.
So, sharpen your quills, power up your keyboards, and ready your tongues — for in this month, the word is truly mightier than ever.
