The New Moon was
exact at 2:05:18 pm/14:05:18 UT/GMT on Tuesday 16th June. As with
every New Moon the following twenty-four hours is a potent time to set
intentions and make a wish, or many.
After this intense
Gemini Mercury retrograde most of us will have a good idea or feeling about
what seeds we would like to sew at this time, so I won’t suggest any Gemini themes.
I have had a busy day
and was out and about just before the New Moon was exact. I didn’t have any confrontations
but I encountered a few frustrated and perhaps angry people and found many people wanting to
communicate and interact more than usual. Perhaps that is because Mars is also
in Gemini and conjunct the Sun and Moon at this New Moon.
Earlier today I was
thinking how different forms of expression and different emotions are misunderstood
and labelled as anger, as happened to me yesterday when I was very upset and
hurt about something and was accused of being angry, something I wasn’t feeling
at the time. Once upon a time the angry label may have applied, and while some
over-reaction may still occur pinpointing the root feeling or root issue has never
been easier.
Perhaps this Mercury retrograde has brought awareness or somehow refined and re-defined your thoughts, connections and communicating styles, as I feel it has for me. The best way I can describe it is what was once experienced as a 7 coloured rainbow has become a multi–coloured spectrum of shades, and what was once a multi-coloured spectrum of shades has become a multi-faceted and multi-dimensional experience and so on into what becomes utterly indescribable in words for me, at this time at least.

Recently I read something
that said we are more than our astrology chart. It started me thinking about my
definition of astrology and astrology charts again. We are greater than the sum
of all physical and experienced parts, but so are the stars and the planets. Everything
is greater than what we can conceive, but it is difficult to interpret and
understand beyond what we are able to conceive. We are limited by our
imagination. When we limit what the stars and planets are, and represent, to
just the physical, we limit astrology and its possible interpretation. When we
limit Astrology to include only our solar system and only the luminaries and
official planets plus Pluto (not sure of its current planetary status) we also
limit Astrology and its interpretation. I can see how people think Astrology is
less than all they are, but ultimately this is only true of the interpretation of
Astrology. We are connected to all things, “As below, so above, as above so
below,” and we are made of stars. Many believe that Source or God/Goddess is a Star…
anyway food for thought, something Gemini loves.
I am way behind on so
many writing projects because this Mercury retrograde “took me out” in terms of
my usual creative focus and outlets. Even as I type this I am standing, stooping over a
table of normal dining height. I have had great difficulty sitting still this
last month and it doesn’t look set to change anytime soon. So while I have managed to paint my Oak Tree Celtic Astrology sign mandala, I have not had the chance to research
and write about it. I plan on adding it to this blog over the next few days but
I’m not holding my breath. Who knows what the coming days will bring? The last
few weeks has been very interesting and a huge learning curve
energetically-speaking.
On Sunday 21st at 4:37:53 pm/16:37:53 UT/GMT, the Sun moves into the sign of Cancer, marking
the Summer Solstice and "Full Moon" phase of the Solar cycle in the Northern
Hemisphere and the Winter Solstice and "New Moon" phase of the Solar cycle
in the Southern Hemisphere! I hope to write a little more on that too.
Happy Gemini New
Moon! Don’t forget to make some wishes and set intentions for the next lunar
cycle! Keep dancing!! Love!!!
