On May 30th at 4:30 AM PST the Sun and Moon align at 9 degrees Gemini 3 minutes. We are in for some new ways of thinking and looking at reality, with opportunities to communicate our feelings and be heard. It’s all in the delivery.
Gemini is the first Air Sign of the Solar year. Air signs are all about the mental realm, steeped in thoughts and a need to share them. This is a brilliant energy to bring about new ways of troubleshooting old problems that have kept you stumped. It is a lite hearted, humorous thought provoking passion for knowledge that seeks to solve problems without going too deep. It is a Mutable sign; the last month of Spring leading us into Summer. Mutable signs are flexible and adaptable to change. And boy, do we need a change at this time. Not a time to be depressed and stuck, but a great time for curiosity, communications and research.
Mercury rules Gemini; the Messenger of the Gods represented by Hermes. The mental capacity and the speedy delivery of those thoughts are what Gemini’s can excel in. The challenge is to stay connected to the world through not only the mind, but physically and emotionally as well. Gemini’s can be aloof and cool in their communications. The glyph for Gemini is the Twins, as there is a tendency for a dual personality, with the ability to see all sides of a situation. At one moment, the Gemini can be considerate and compassionate, and the next can throttle you with a criticism that leaves you questioning what just happened. Quicksilver Messenger Service with this sign.
So on this occasion, we are setting intentions for what we want to bring about. We have a greater capacity to broaden our scope, as many ideas come our way. To be able to open our minds to new possibilities, we must make room and clear the clutter of the past. It can be a playful and witty time, lifting us out of the drama and setting a course for new horizons. The issue can be overthinking things, scattering our thoughts in so many directions that we don’t accomplish what we desire. One great use of this sign is writing, whether it's storytelling or making lists of things to take care of. Our minds are on overtime here, and the planet Mercury is retrograde in Taurus until June 3rd.
When retrograde, it is time to stroll down memory lane and collect our thoughts on what still needs attention. Get inspired with all means of communication, from reading and writing, to listening to music and lyrics, to calling friends and family. And it’s a great time to be creative in so many ways!
The Sun and Moon are sextile Mars and Jupiter, conjoined in the sign of Aries. Sextiles are positive in that it makes for a cooperative and supportive relationship between planets and luminaries. This combination works together to provide us not only the mindset, but the courage to make said changes. Mars and Jupiter in Aries are strong and powerful, and direct our minds to seek personal power and success. This helps to focus our thoughts on ourselves and our immediate surroundings, rather than be all over the map. You’ll have a positive, "can-do" attitude and will tackle life's challenges with relish.This self-confidence and will to succeed will show you how much you can do and how far you can go. Forward-looking, enterprising, and enthusiastic about new projects, you’re not happy in situations that do not offer you challenges and the potential for growth and expansion in the future - no matter how secure or satisfactory they may be in other respects.
To make the best use of this time and energies, allow yourself to create a new model to live by. Dream up your most satisfying version of who and what you can be and can accomplish. There are times in life to sit back and ponder; this isn’t one of them. With the combination of energies at work, we can use this powerful opportunity to rethink and renegotiate our life as it has been, and turn it into more closely resembling who we want to be. As mentioned before, we need to “make room” for what we wish to create in our life by letting go of what stands in the way. We can do it! We may take small steps or huge leaps in the right direction, and achieve our goals.
We might even have a surprise come our way that shows us new, unimagined possibilities we never believed could happen. So, the trick is to keep an open mind, and to remember we have many teachers around us in our lives who can reveal truths and ideas that can help us on our way to fulfillment. Gemini is the sign of family, neighbors and friends; and at this time we are the teachers and students in this area of our lives. Share your knowledge and stay alert in all your exchanges to find the feather of truth for yourself and others. Have some fun, laugh and express yourself fully!
