Analysis
This New Moon brings up themes of duality, options, and perspectives. Gemini, the mutable air sign is ruled by Mercury, and at the time of this New Moon, Mercury is making a dramatic opposition to knowledgeable Jupiter. This indicates there’s room to grow, not just spiritually but also an expansion of ideas, travel, or literal information. It’s possible you’re in the beginning process of defining your faith. Everything comes down to comparisons and perspective. This is an excellent time to keep an open mind, share ideas, and expand your vocabulary. If you’ve been searching for something more mentally stimulating now may very well be the time. The key is; do your research and be thorough before you make a choice.
The Sun and Moon’s square to Neptune reminds us to take what we hear with a grain of salt, not everything may be quite what it seems. Confusion is likely with the squares between Neptune and Jupiter. Take caution not to be too arrogant or swift. Both in a sense of while in motion, or with what may come out of your mouth! It’s possible you may clash with someone’s feelings or perspective. This is also a time to be mindful of other persons religious, or spiritual beliefs. Travel should be looked over several times before finalizing any plans, as Neptune brings some hazy energy that causes us to overlook things. Gemini’s usual easy multitasking may not necessarily be possible during this new moon.
We are now building into planets in Cancer making oppositions to the heavy hitters like Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn. Mars is joining with the North Node, making our bodies active, reactive, and emotional. Make time for self-care, baths, and high-quality water! Paying close attention to the diet, the stomach, and the emotional body is key. Heavy emotions may be linked to the polarizing energy in Capricorn. Venus in Taurus is making some earthy trines to Saturn in Pluto, showing us intense depths. It’s passionate and very likely helping you sift through things. Taurus and Capricorn are earth signs that want to make things tangible and real. It can help us get to the bottom line, and figure out REAL love, money, health, etc. Saturn and Venus in harmony help are helping make real changes that we can achieve.
Big bright new ideas brought to the table now can pave the way for excitement in the months ahead. Go ahead, do your research and take a chance.
