Dear Friends,
Happy Thanksgiving and Sagittarius season!
On November 27, at 4:17 AM ET, the Full Moon aligned in Gemini bringing us to an important cross-road in our life’s journey.
With the Full Moon in Gemini – we may be feeling divided between the head and heart. But notably — all planets currently answer to Venus in Libra, suggesting the heart holds the answer and key. Listen. Whatever the question, love is the answer.
The scenery is rapidly changing, drawing us out of our comfort zone to explore new territory. Over the coming weeks, there are profound truths, insights, revelations, and conversations coming through. Life presents us with choices, but avoid going to extremes. Duality is an illusion. Separation exists in the mind. Clarify a vision, and choose the middle path. Make time for self-reflection, silence, meditation, and be honest with yourself above all. Then it will be easier to make wise, conscious choices, and have heartfelt conversations moving forward.
Gemini is the sign of duality, the mind, ideas, beliefs, all forms of communication, and transportation. The Full Moon is highlighting these themes, especially in the area of your life ruled by Gemini. We’re in the waning cycle of the Moon — over the next two weeks, keep an open mind. Consciously release beliefs, ideas, assumptions, what you think you know, or how you think things should be. Then you can discover and be revealed a deeper truth, allowing for informed decisions.
This Gemini Full Moon forms a T-square with Mars and Saturn, suggesting a need for discernment. There’s a need for awareness of our limits, but also of our freedom to make choices that work for us. The house in your chart ruled by Virgo, offers the outlet and is where you can balance this pressure. Something might seem like a tall order, but there’s a sweeter simpler way. Be willing to ask for help if you need it. Life is upgrading and hopefully, we’re growing in wisdom, compassion, maturity, and sensitivity. Realign with your inner compass, truth, and wisdom, then you can navigate with awareness.
With the Full Moon in Gemini —we’re learning to communicate our needs and feelings, honestly. Whether in business or personal relationships — everything is negotiable. There is a way forward that works for all. Make time for self-reflection, be brutally honest with yourself, and seek perspective. Then it will be easier to find common ground with others — unless everyone wins, everyone loses.
Mercury planet of communication and the ruler of Gemini, is now in the shadow phase. It stations retrograde on December 13, and stations direct on till January 4. At the lunation, Mercury (ruler of Gemini) made the first (of three) squares to Neptune at this lunation. Mercury will make two more squares to Neptune on December 27 and January 8.
At its depth, this is a process of tuning into our soul’s calling, and learning to listen to our inner voice. On the surface — the conversations, and situations we’re dealing with now are part of a larger story unfolding until January 2024. There are important insights, information, conversations, and revelations coming through. Be patient with the process of discovery and avoid thinking you know it all.
This situation has many moving parts. With Mercury in Sagittarius —stay focused on the target, and big picture, and be true to your values. Then you can learn what you need to know discover a deeper, greater truth, and make wise choices moving ahead.
Interestingly, Venus was at 21+ Libra at this lunation and triggered the October 14, Libra Solar Eclipse degree. What was seeded then is now slowly blossoming. Venus meets the South Node on November 29, before she enters Scorpio on December 4. This suggests a deep release of past (outgrown) patterns surrounding relationships, money, and our values; so we can make conscious creative choices moving ahead.
Our relationships, finances, contracts, creativity, and all matters of the heart are in focus. Love reigns supreme. In relationships, there is a need for patience, kindness, honesty, temperance, and freedom. If we can choose and communicate from the heart we can strike the right balance. Freedom is key to strengthening bonds that go the distance and the test of time.
Once Venus enters Scorpio on December 4, the energy shifts. Then Venus is ruled by Mars, while Mars is in Jupiter’s sign, and Jupiter is in Venus’s sign. That feels like going around in circles with something. If it feels like you’re caught in some endless (unpleasant) cycle —it will require a conscious redirecting of thoughts, and making conscious choices. If you’re enjoying this energy, by all means, go sink into it. No two moments are alike, because the planets are always moving. There are endless pleasures, treasures, and adventures to be discovered — showing us a brighter side to life.
Relationships are a choice. This is echoed by both Venus and the full Moon in Gemini. With the Sun (and Mars) in Sagittarius, Connections rooted in freedom and honesty, rather than any sense of obligation have the potential to go the distance. Beware of being judgmental — life isn’t black and white, and neither are people. You are creating your reality with your mind’s eye. Choose and create awareness.
We’re in Sagittarius season, moving to the Sagittarius New Moon in two weeks on December 12, drawing us on a new journey of discovery. Jupiter the ruler of Sagittarius is currently in Venus’ sign. Jupiter will station direct on December 31, at Taurus 5+ triggering the degree of the Taurus Eclipse on October 28, bringing a vision to life.
Sagittarius is a visionary sign. Now more than ever, you are creating your reality with your mind’s eye with your thoughts, words, and choices. As you move forward from this Full Moon — clarify a vision and keep your eyes on the prize. However the road winds, Sagittarius season reminds us the real journey is the inner one. My Guru says, the eyes that see the good in others [and the world], and eyes that see bad [find fault] are bad eyes.
Beauty and the beast lie in the eye of the beholder. What are you envisioning? Where are you going? What are you leaving behind? What are you taking with you? Who is going with you? Be true to yourself above all.
