Libra

May 2023

Your sign desires harmonious relationships. This eclipse season has been challenging for you because you've come to realize that you often put in more than 1/2 the effort when it comes to sharing. You often give a lot within relationships, then you feel others take it for granted. When it comes to you desiring to receive something in return the other person (people) either act like it's an inconvenience or they give you what you desire so utterly slowly. There's 2 big lessons that you've learned through this eclipse season (April 20th-May 5th-New Moon in Taurus on May 19th) which are about 1) Give yourself credit for everything you give to others so lovingly and generously 2)Think twice before you give something, or do something, for another and know exactly why you are doing this. IF it's to get something back in return than don't even bother. If it's to give because giving makes you happy then you're on the right path. In other words, it's been 'expectations' and 'disappointment within expectations' that have been causing you grief within your relationships. Some Libra's have said, "Well, I have to give this or that, or do this or that, because that other person expects ME to do this or that; and if I don't do it then that person will be angry." Solution: pull your energy back. If another expects something from you, that you don't feel appreciated for, then say, "I would do this or that, but I don't feel appreciated so I'm not going to do that right now." Let the other person get upset. Let the other person know how you feel (without arguments if possible). It's very possible that the other person will begin to understand that they have been too demanding and will start to appreciate you more. It's possible too, but very rarely for a Libra, that you may be the one who has been expecting/demanding/insisting too much. Take a good look at that just in case this could be the problem. The solution is to bring more of a harmonious balance into all of your personal relationships; within your family, with your friends, and especially with a significant other (past and present) who may be in your life. Mercury has also been in retrograde motion (will move direct on May 14th). During this retrograde Mercury period of time there can easily be misunderstandings. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Think twice before making any snap decisions within your relationships. Bide your time. Lovingly try to see both sides of the situation. Use your good intuition to help you understand where and why any misunderstandings have been happening. There is good news on the horizon! Benevolent Jupiter moves into the sign of Taurus on May 16th through May 25th 2024 which highlights your ability to more easily receive the cooperation and loving support you've been waiting for. You will be rewarded for your past good deeds. You will be rewarded for your caring nature. Hang in there Libra. Try to put your frustrations aside. Focus on the bigger picture of how you desire your relationships to become.
