Tune into the astrological trends of May 2025with Kerry's monthly Vedic astrology forecast.The latter half of May sees Jupiter, Rahu, and Ketu changing signs while the inner planets are moving forward toward new horizons, breaking up some of the intense combinations of March and April. By early June, we could feel as if we’ve truly moved on with confidence.

SUN: The Sun begins May by finishing his Aries transit, helping us to initiate new beginnings with our whole hearts. On May 14, Sun moves to Taurus encouraging us to take time for our creative efforts and relationships.

MOON: The full Moon of May 12th lands in Libra, ushering us through small or large victories that lead us into the next chapter. The Moon wanes through the latter part of May, coming into union with the Sun in Taurus on May 26th, inviting us to ground and re-set. Both lunar events of May occur in Venus signs while Venus remains exalted, bringing connective vibes all month!

MARS: For all of May, Mars is in Cancer, which could be challenging in the sense of maintaining focus and efficiency. With Rahu’s aspect receding, the boat could become more steady as the month goes on. This is good energy for mustering emotional courage.

MERCURY: Mercury’s on the move in May, squeezing from Pisces into Aries on May 6th, and racing forward to Taurus on May 23rd. This is an indication that we’ve got projects and plans moving forward; with intelligent Mercury moving fast, take time to slow down and double check details.

JUPITER: Positive, growth promoting, and abundant, Jupiter guides us on our path and reminds us to find our teachers and teachings. On May 14th Jupter moves away from Taurus and into Gemini, which will be benefit the air signs Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius. Rapid and variable growth patterns are expected, especially for education related projects.

VENUS: Venus spends most of May in exaltation and moving away from chaos created by the action in Pisces through March and April. Tune in to your divine flow and begin to reconnect channels that may have been disrupted. Venus moves to Aries on May 29th which makes June go time for creative projects.

SATURN: Saturn and Rahu continue their wrestling match through mid-May, beginning to release grip and slide in opposite directions. We are moving out of the phase where we analyze what we want vs what is possible and settling into creating a routine that will support our new advances.

RAHU: The shadow planet Rahu, symbolized as a disembodied head, moves out

Tune into the astrological trends of April 2025with Kerry's monthly Vedic astrology forecast.March madness continues into April as retrograde Mercury and Venus buzz around Pisces. Expect a tipping point at the full Moon on April 12th and then let gravity take its course. Find a balance between letting go of the defunct and preserving what produces.

NINE PLANETS SUMMARY

SUN: The Sun faces some turbulence navigating out of troubled waters during the first half of April, when we could face big decisions that need fast answers. April 13th sees the Sun disembarking into Aries, his sign of exaltation, where we begin forward progress and strategic execution.

MOON: Early April sees the Moon waxing, mentally preparing us for the tipping point that comes with the full Moon at the last degree of Virgo on April 12th. It’s time to move from transition to initiation and creation. The Moon wanes as April winds down, coming to a new Moon in Aries on April 27th, inviting us to root into our new directions.

MARS: On April 2nd, Mars roves back into Cancer for another deep dive into emotional processing. The plan is to face fears, be accountable, and find courage to move forward even though discomfort is your companion. In the depths of these waters lies the desire that fuels you. This opportunity for vulnerability is ripe through June 6th.

MERCURY: Mercury’s retrograde cycle in Pisces stops on April 7th, when we should all take a small break and get our bearings before attempting to be on our way. We may still be bearing with confusion, choices, and incomplete data sets as Mercury swims toward shore, following the Sun into Aries on May 6th. Slow down and be deliberate.

JUPITER: April is Jupiter’s last full calendar month in Taurus, so watch out for those sprouts coming up in the earth signs as Jupiter scatters his parting seeds in hopes of future growth opportunities. Now is the time to creatively integrate lessons that are soon to springboard you in new directions.

VENUS: Venus has completed her transition to morning appearance and will begin to shine before sunrise in the stars of Pisces during April. April 12th sees Venus resuming direct motion in the midst of a very intense conjunction of Rahu and Saturn. April will be an enormous diplomacy challenge that sees the masses pulling together for a common cause.

SATURN: Saturn embarks upon a nearly three year journey through Pisces in April, immediately coming into a tight meeting with Rahu, which could cause confusion and sudden situations that have long term consequences. Ma

The Samudra Manthan, or Churning of the Cosmic Ocean, is an amazing therapeutic myth that illustrates the quest of the divine beings of light for the nectar of immortality. In Vedic astrology, the last two planets in the planetary cabinet are the shadow makers, Rahu and Ketu. This story tells how they came to be and points us toward how to interpret the placements of these two shadow planets in our horoscopes.

Vedic culture offers an array of stories and myths that help to explain deep philosophical truths in a way that connects us to esoteric understanding in a simple way. This is the story of Surya and Shani, in English known as the Sun and Saturn, known enemies in the array of the planetary cabinet. With the Sun as our champion of individual expression and Saturn as the representative of the diverse collective, the interaction of these two forces in a horoscope can give us great clues about how we shine and how we're humble.

Tune into the astrological trends of February 2025 with Kerry's monthly Vedic astrology forecast. February feels like a backstage moment, with the anticipation of the big play building up. With the outer planets preparing to shift signs from March through May, February is our time to practice, prepare, take stock, and adjust plans.

SUN: Sun moves from Capricorn to Aquarius on February 12th. Both signs are Saturn’s territory, the Sun’s known enemy. This is a tussle between what about me and what about everyone. Rather than shifting blame, practice detachment when you feel that ego swell.


MOON: The full Moon at the last degree of Cancer on February 12th brings us maximum light and realizations that help us find our landing direction as we crest the tipping point. The waning Moon during late February joins the Sun in Aquarius on February 27th, asking us to clean our containers, align our desires, and mentally prepare for big changes ahead.

MARS: Retrograde Mars has returned to Gemini, which could feel like a series of minor implosions as we re-visit earlier situations, but from a different perspective. Mars resumes direct motion on February 23rd, when we have the chance to change course and re-focus our agendas.

MERCURY: Mercury is on the bounce in February. His upward sprint through Capricorn tops out on February 11th, when he enters Aquarius for a quick transit past Saturn, urging us to tighten belts and slow down. On February 27th, Mercury enters Pisces until May 6th for a long stretch to cover the upcoming shakedown that ramps up in March.

JUPITER: As lord of the water sign, Pisces, retrograde Jupiter has been adrift in Taurus, reflecting the sloshing of transiting Rahu in Pisces. Clear guidance has been hard to come by for the past few months. On February 4th, Jupiter regains direct motion, which could lead to new resolutions and directions.

VENUS: Venus entered Pisces on January 28th for an extended stay, through May 31st. Venus and Mercury will hover in Jupiter’s final water sign together, each going retrograde and facilitating the outer planets’ upcoming shifts. This is a call for grace and compassion at the highest levels.

SATURN: Saturn’s final months in Aquarius are here; mid-February will see Mercury and Sun passing into Saturn’s realm, urging us reorganize our relationships with both personal responsibility and transactional expectations. Now is a good time to take stock of what has worked in the long term, and to prospect about what to

Tune into the astrological trends of January 2025 with Kerry's monthly Vedic astrology forecast. As we turn the page on the calendar year, we are looking ahead to a dynamic Spring with all of the outer planets poised to shift. It’s time to tap into inner guidance systems and take stock of what to pack with you going forward. Read or listen to the full forecast at https://www.planetaryinfluence.com/forecasts/2025/Jan

NINE PLANETS SUMMARY

SUN: The new year always sees the Sun moving through the warm and buoyant sign of Sagittarius through mid-January, which could feel slightly deflated this year with Jupiter retrograde. On January 13th the Sun moves to Capricorn for a month, urging us to stay commited to our dreams and visions even though the going may be tough.

MOON: The first full Moon of 2025 comes on January 13th in the last degree of Gemini, pushing us to find our own inner light when the outer roads seems dark and confusing. The Sun and Moon join for the new Moon in Capricorn on January 29th, suggesting that we settle in, quiet down, and listen up.

MARS: Mars continues in retrograde motion, pulling our power cords and forcing strategies that may confound us. On January 21st, Mars moves back into Mercury’s air sign of Gemini, scattering us into brainstorm mode when it comes to making ends meet and transactions complete. Foster curiosity and avoid knee jerk reactions.

MERCURY: Mercury represents our intelligence and capacity for learning and practicing skills. January sees Mercury in a good position to help us find the positives in our lesson plans as he transits Sagittarius. Quickly assess, discard what doesn’t fit, and integrate what does.

JUPITER: Jupiter’s final month in retrograde motion through Venus’ earth sign of Taurus will be January 2025. While positivity may be hard to harvest, both Mars and Jupiter’s retrograde motion are pulling us into a more intuitive response pattern that ultimately offers easy access to our internal control panel. When the answers don’t appear on the screen, close those eyes and see what you find inside.

VENUS: Venus joins Saturn in Aquarius for most of January. The creatrix Venus inspires innovation built on tried and true foundations. Begin to lay tracks toward long term creative projects and relationships.

SATURN: Saturn’s time treading through own territories is coming to a close after five years. Feeling the humble position of square one after building and rebuilding, look forward at what is possible based on where you stand now. Practice detachment from habits that hold you back.

RAHU: Rahu’s boat-rocking energy continues to bob and float in Pisces, vibrating through all of the water signs by aspect. Rahu’s alone time at sea is about to shift, with the inner planets beginning to filter in by late January. Now is a good time to find some quiet time and figure out what you want. What you really want. Make the intention of refining that information as it comes in.

KETU: Reorganize your beliefs about mental and physical intelligence, about intuition and instinct, and about how to bring peace to your body and mind. Open up to practices and treatments that help you realign to what feels healthy. Ketu is in Virgo to help you find those elusive ans
