Energetic Weather Update for May

What does numerology, the Tarot and Spirit have to say about the energies of May?

The month of May is the fifth month of the calendar year, and is known for spring flowers, warmer weather, sunshine, and a shift from the unpredictable April weather as summer approaches. In numerology, the number 5 is a bit unpredictable anyway, so May can sometimes hold unexpected twists and turns.

If you add the “5” from the month of May to the current year, 2024, you will arrive at the number 13 (5=2+0+2+4=13). This is a number that has been feared for many years. Many tall buildings will skip the thirteenth floor. Friday the 13^th is thought to be an unlucky day, and many horror movies have included the number 13 into the plot lines and even movie titles.

There are many theories as to the origins of the fear of the number 13.

In the tarot, the thirteenth card is the Death card. Whether the tarot card came first or the fear of the number thirteen, is debatable.

When organized religion was attempting to shift away from a more feminine, goddess-based, Earth-based spirituality, it is thought that the men in power created a fear of that number to create distance from those belief systems, since in ancient times, thirteen was a highly spiritual number. There are thirteen moons in a calendar year. If we based our calendars on the moon rather than the sun, there would be no need for the extra day every four years. There are thirteen goddesses in many pagan spiritual beliefs.

Thirteen is thought to be a karmic number. The end of a cycle and the beginning of a new one.

If you add the 1 and the 3 from 13 you arrive at 4. In Chinese superstition, the number 4 is the number of bad luck.

I am not here to necessarily predict that May will hold death, bad luck, or ruin, but there is likely to be some shifts, possibly unexpected, and beneficial or not, depending on your perspective.

Remember that, in life, what one person celebrates another person mourns.

If events transpire that a lot of people find unacceptable, there could be a collective unrest that has the potential to escalate into violence. This has always been the case, but this month it is really important to hold the energy of Divine Love and Peace.

As I mentioned, in the Tarot, the thirteenth card is the Death card. The fourth card is the Emperor.

We all understand the Death card is not always about physical death, but sometimes that is very well the case. However, normally the Death card is telling you that it is time to say goodbye to some aspect of your life, your beliefs, or an aspect of your life that is no longer working. Really say goodbye once and for all. Wish whatever or whoever is leaving your life well and grieve or celebrate the death, whichever seems appropriate.

The Emperor card in the Tarot suggests it is time to get organized. If this card represents a person, this person is normally a man who is not all touchy, feely, or emotional. He is normally in some sort of power, either figuratively or realistically. Or he thinks he holds power, so he can sometimes be intimidating. He is possibly not open to viewpoints that oppose his agenda or personal belief system. This month may be a time to reassess what you think, believe and who holds power in your life.

These cards together appear to be the death of person of power or influence, but it could just as easily be interpreted many other ways. It could be that a person of influence loses his or her power or has some sort of fall from a position of authority. You may decide to leave an organization that is no longer aligned with your beliefs or feeling of well-being. It could indicate the need to make some sweeping changes in the way you live your life. Maybe it is time to leave behind the tendency to accumulate clutter and begin to get your house in order.

May seems to feel like a good month to get organized. Issues around justice, organization, structures, systems, and foundations come into focus. Make sure you are building your life on a strong foundation. Do the work you need to do to move forward. Sometimes after a period of time when life has taken some unexpected turns, it is necessary to take care of business. Rebuild any parts of your life that have experienced difficulty.

These energies may be indicating that some sort of beliefs you have held about the nature of life, spirituality, awareness, or consciousness may be shifting, and you are finding it necessary to reevaluate what you believe about the Universe, God, or your entire existence. This whole year is very much focused on spiritual awakenings, and when we awaken spiritually, we may find that everything we once believed to be true comes under question.

If you find yourself on shaky ground either spiritually, emotionally, financially, physically, or in some other way, take some time to reevaluate your priorities, your beliefs, and adjust your inner compass a bit. This may take a few minutes, a few days, or the entire month. It will take as long as it takes.

I mentioned before that around the first of the year I felt uneasy about April and May. I was not sure why I felt uneasy, but my suspicions were backed by some astrologers and other intuitives. As of the writing of this post, I do feel a bit of relief, like something energetically shifted, but I am writing this post well in advance of the time when it will post, due to some adventures I have planned where I will not be taking time to write articles.

The most important thing to remember about the future is that nothing is set in stone. We are in unpredictable times! It seems that day-by-day the energy is shifting. For me it mostly feels good, but this is not the case for everyone. When we are navigating shifts in the collective consciousness, it may feel a bit disconcerting for a time. Our bodies have to adjust to new frequencies and alternate timelines.

The best thing we can do is to find contentment in life and find ways to increase our levels of joy and love. It feels positive for me for the most part. Obviously, Spirit does not always share details because if we had all the information, we may take actions to prevent things that are meant to happen from occurring. I also believe that the future is not necessarily set in stone. Although there are events that seem fated, and beyond our ability to change, what we can do is react to those events in ways that are appropriate and healing for all.

Most of the time, I find that Spirit gives us just enough information but not too much. One of my students was receiving intuitive hits about a date on the calendar: March 26 and something to do with bridges, but that is all she got. On that date, in Baltimore Maryland, a cargo ship hit the Francis Scott Key bridge and it collapsed. She did not receive enough information to do anything about it, except send Divine Love to that date on the calendar. The positive thing that did happen was that due to the time the event happened, the bridge was not packed with cars. Yes, there was loss of life, but not as devastating as it could have been.

Since I received the feeling of unease about April and May, I have been sending Divine Love and Healing to these two months. I have asked for the highest good to be done for the majority of those who would have been affected by any events. One day last week I did feel a shift happen and a sense of relief. I am still not sure what shifted, if anything, but for me, it felt better.

It is so important to take energetic predictions like these and send Divine Love into any predictions that seem ominous or scary. We don’t know what effect we may have on any possible events or outcomes.
