This new moon is happening between the benefics…

Mercury and Venus on one side and Jupiter on the other side.

The benefics around this new moon will also help to mitigate the force and strongness of Mars Rahu conjunction in Pisces.

Stay calm and do not react to anything harshly. Have control over your senses.

Also, the next day on 19th May — The moon will conjunct Ketu in Virgo @ 19° and has Jupiter’s aspect.

Expect some ending and a new start from here, as an impact of the previous conjunctions of the 18th.

Yama is also named “king of dharma”. He brings self-control, restriction as well as loss, and transformation into our life. But it takes away only that, which has reached its full term of life…and now there is a need to change.

Bharani is a nak of transformation that generally comes after a sudden end or death of something and that changes our consciousness of life completely.

Now we see things differently, after that incident.

Yama is also known for carrying out his duties in the most disciplined way …

He fulfills all his responsibilities fiercely. The energy is ugra meaning harsh, powerful, and strong.

It represents activities that need power, force, weapons, fighting, and conflicts to get things done….war at times, some destruction or even setting fires.
