On a lunar day with the waning Moon in Aquarius, it's easier to let go of what holds you back, to change, and to calmly accept your imperfections. This is a favorable time to begin learning, accept new offers, explore unconventional approaches, expand opportunities, and build useful contacts — provided your freedom isn't restricted. People tend to be more talkative at this time and may sometimes show their less favorable sides, so it's important to choose interactions consciously. Still, the waning Moon's energy helps broaden your horizons, deepen understanding of others and yourself, and filter relationships while testing new ideas — use this lunar day for planning and small personal experiments.

Nakshatra: Uttara Ashadha [until 22-05-2011 13:04:55]   Symbol: Elephant Tusk. One of the best nakshatras for starting almost anything. Good for laying foundations, moving into a new home, organizing life, creative, legal, and political work, business deals, contracts, and spiritual or religious rituals. Marriage and intimacy are favorable. Not good for illegal actions, finishing projects, travel, or rude behavior.

This nakshatra has a steady, stable nature. It’s best for activities meant to bring long-term results — like moving into a new home, taking vows, laying a foundation, planting seeds or trees, etc. Things started now are likely to bring good, lasting results.
