Embrace the Gemini New Moon: Harness the Power of New Beginnings

The Moon's Journey...

 

When the Moon moves into a sign for about two and a half days, she colors the emotional landscape for all life on Earth. We all know that Luna controls the tides, and since life is mostly water, our emotions move through us as energy in motion...

 

We also know, thanks to the research of Masaru Emoto documented in his book "The Hidden Messages in Water," that the molecular structure of water changes based on external stimuli, including our conscious intentions!

So, when the Moon moves into a sign, she activates the qualities of that sign, which manifest throughout all water and therefore all life on Earth.

 

Now, when Luna conjuncts the Sun while in a sign—what we call the New Moon—the Sun acts like an anchor to ingrain the sign's qualities until the Full Moon two weeks later. Even as the Moon continues to travel through other signs and aspect other planets, while all the other planets and asteroids are in different signs aspecting each other...

 

Then there is each individual's own personal frequency based on their unique birth chart, body, environment, and life experiences as a final layer!

 

This is why astrology can be compared to "weather forecasts" or "musical compositions"—many overlapping factors create the resulting "storm" or "chord."

All of that said, the Moon and the Sun carry significant influence. The Moon is the closest celestial body to Earth, and the Sun is by far the largest.

 

The Gemini New Moon


While Luna rules our emotions, when she is in Gemini, there is almost the opposite effect. Gemini tends to subdue emotions or minimize the importance of deep feelings and emotional needs.

 

Moon in Gemini is not about crying or temper tantrums. She is more about settling differences by discussing things reasonably and rationally, avoiding inner depths for unconscious motives and hurts.

 

This is not the ideal energy for heavy, demanding emotional involvements or personal commitments. It is more suited for learning and stimulating conversations.

 

Again, everyone will be affected uniquely by this New Moon, so we’ll want to practice understanding and objectivity with others to appreciate their different approaches to life. We may know what works for us, but it may not work for them, and vice versa.

 

The Moon will join with the Sun at 5:37 am, PDT on June 6th. Let's take a look at the aspects:


Moon Conjunct Mercury

 

Since Mercury rules Gemini, you might think he would amplify the Gemini traits, but rather, when he joins Luna, he tends to stimulate an interest in the inner motivations and feelings of others.

 

This is a great energy for listening to others talk about their personal lives, dreams, and desires, sympathizing with their problems, and sharing your own experiences and feelings.

It's also a great energy for studying psychology, symbolism, mythology, and languages, as well as history, archeology, genealogy, or anything having to do with the past.

 

Moon Conjunct Venus

 

This aspect adds more sympathy and affection to the mix, especially regarding children and mothers. It's an energy that promotes marriage, home, family, and kindness!

 

Moon Square Saturn

 

This aspect encourages seeking approval and acceptance from others, even at the risk of being inauthentic, because it fosters a sensitivity to criticism, neglect, and not being included.

 

You may feel more emotionally sensitive, causing you to withdraw into a shell to defend yourself. If so, this is the perfect opportunity to write down your New Moon intentions!

Setting Your New Moon Intentions

 

For your intention writing ceremony, we are not fans of the Gemini Moon, given that the parting aspect before the Moon goes Void of Course is a square to Neptune in Pisces. This can add unnecessary confusion to your intentions.


We much prefer the Cancer Lunar window from 5:41 am on June 7th until 12:05 pm on the 9th, when the Moon trines Neptune. All times are Pacific.


In solitude, you can tap into your inner well of nourishment and power, getting crystal clear about what you want to experience, learn, and create in this lifetime, especially in the areas of:

 

  • Quick-witted

  • Expressive

  • Adaptable

  • Inventive

  • Literary

  • Dexterous

  • Curious

  • Clever

  • Flexible

  • Learning

  • Communication skills


Remember, your intentions change water, which means YOU, and all those with whom you associate...
