Peace and love cosmic family. Hope this finds you all safe and well. Gemini season has officially started, Happy Birthday to our Gems! Gemini season is a lighter, playful energy that we could all use right now. However, this Gemini season has a plot twist, energy will be high, intense and extremely transformational.
Mercury, the planet of communication, intellect, memory and communication, rules Gemini. It is the planet of the mind and influences how we think and process information. Gemini, symbolized by the twins, shows us that we can access information from various sources and perspectives to find the truth. Gemini is curious, playful, and witty, has a way with words and has the gift of gab, quite like myself, proud Gemini.
We can use this playful energy to balance the heavy energies that come with this season. May 23rd Saturn has joined Pluto in the retrograde party. On May 26th we will have a Full Moon blood moon eclipse in Sagittarius and then Mercury retrograde on May 30th.
Saturn’s retrograde will take us to October. This is a period of reviewing your long-term commitments, time management and karma. How you spend your time will determine the outcome of your karma. Use this time to look at your responsibilities, how are your boundaries, where do you feel restricted, where do you need to enforce stronger boundaries, your karma depends on it.
The Full Moon Eclipse in Sagittarius will provide us all with a much needed emotional reset. Lunar Eclipses give us a fresh slate to work from. This moon being in Sagittarius is calling us to release all illusions and fears that are preventing you from standing and speaking your truth. Gemini season is all about speaking up. How are you advocating for your needs and your truth? How are you speaking to yourself in your thoughts? Release anything that doesn’t support who you are now, we’ve grown; your needs and boundaries should reflect that.
Lastly, the famous Mercury retrograde closes out the month and goes until June 22ndA. As we mentioned earlier, Mercury is at home in Gemini, the energy will be double the fun. This is going to be a key time to slow down and review the goals we have made up to this point. Are they still in alignment with where you are heading? How are your processing information as it pertains to your growth and enlightenment? Are you speaking life into you, family and intentions? Are you feeling supported in your community/social group/are you supporting your community/social groups? These are some of the themes to reflect on for this retrograde.
As you can see we are in store for an action packed month. If we look at the cosmic movements as a playful time to heal and transform, we will have a much better experience this summer. If we resist the necessary changes needed for us to live our fullest potential, the universe will expose your blind spots for you to look deeper within yourself.
The universe is always conspiring on our behalf. Use this time to review, reassess, reflect and rest!!! You can’t rush your healing and you can’t rush greatness. Slow down, have some fun, smell the flowers, look within and do your inner work! Gemini season is here and change is in the air, literally!
