The Moon is moving through the sign of Gemini and matters related to expression, change, and associations undergo a shift that takes time for something you very much desire to manifest. There’s an emotional need for mental stimulation and exchange motivated by curiosity and the quest for answers. You’re also concerned with the practical application of your knowledge in situations that enable you to draw on experience and training to solve problems. This might be a natural ability in dealing with the ordinary that leads to success or fulfillment. The gift of the common touch or intuitive insights about what people want or need can be of great benefit. But while careful and precise concerning detail, it remains a challenge not to scatter your energies. The events that take place during this cycle are likely to include persons with strong Gemini (sun, moon, rising) in the natal chart.
A significant emphasis is on communication underscored by the chart ruler’s placement in the domain of travel, commerce, study, paperwork, mental activity, and relationships with siblings. In some cases, the focus is on a change in career because of lack of satisfaction or progress. Tension concerning home versus career can feel restrictive if you feel unsupported or what you’d like to do is in conflict with the responsibilities you’re expected to fulfill.
Issues of power, control, and too many secrets are also factors in the events that unfold and open enemies can be a source of conflict. You do need to be careful of what you choose to reveal so that you don’t give confidential information to the wrong person. Someone could intentionally misrepresent the facts for fraudulent reasons and the influence of others can open you to exploitation or misguidance. Expect delays and blockages that are interwoven with legal issues, medical challenges, education, belief systems, those at a distance, or foreign influence. Classical texts contribute a sinister note (albeit a wide berth given the aspect in question) to this moon concerning health and safety.
Nevertheless, an agent of change–a mother figure, loved one, or family member–may provide needed transformation through offering a line of assistance in matters. A “finger of god” aspect, which indicates fated events that produce a crisis in timing, accentuates feelings of love and devotion in a situation related to the past, family, and conditioning that may even be the residue of past lives. Perhaps you’ve been chosen to break an ancestral pattern that has lasted through many generations. That change may include a transition in relation to friends or in-laws as you begin to separate from those who don’t share your same vision or philosophy on life. Perhaps the goal is to expand your circle to include those of like mind and to free yourself of previous inhibitions or restrictions. As a result, an opportunity without effort may fall into your lap related to short trips, pleasant visits with friends and neighbors, or new ideas and developments concerning future ventures that bring business and financial success, benefits, and advancement.
This can be an emotional cycle where repressed feelings surface or increase your sensitivity to the reactions of other people. A significant relationship has a strong effect on your moods, actions, and sense of security. There is heightened probability that you’ll be involved in a nurturing relationship regardless of the nature of this alliance where one of you gives and the other receives. Even long-standing existing relationships will tend to experience a shift where one of you will need more support emotionally, financially or physically. The weaker partner will have difficulty in making decisions or handling problems while the stronger partner becomes responsible for the well-being of the relationship. One of you will have more knowledge, expertise, status, power, or control with the tendency to be very caring, concerned, and protective of the individual being helped.
However, if this relationship is not intimate, there may be inequality in the giving. In fact, an overwhelming urge to partner can lead to polarizing positions that play out as stronger versus weaker or through traditional male-female roles. The dependency compels one of you to either adapt your behavior to please the partner, or to rebel against his/her influence. If you’re in a difficult relationship where the balance of power is unequal, one of you may be afraid to leave because of a myriad of reasons that rationalize staying. Perhaps you’re more susceptible to being manipulated or strongly influenced by former negative relationships that left you wounded. You may be faced with feelings of excessive jealousy and possessiveness or lack of trust that make resolving emotional conflict nearly impossible due to the lack of objectivity.
Before you can establish greater intimacy with another, you must first deal with the psychological repercussions of your past. This is an important consideration where new romantic involvement is concerned because emotional sensitivity will prompt you to lead with your heart rather than your head. A decision regarding engagement or marriage might occur or another important relationship formed. The level of development will depend on emotional reciprocity, and unmet expectations can lead to a relationship that is emotionally draining and difficult. For those in an existing relationship on the path to true love, it’s possible to develop a greater intimacy at this time. However, strained relationships will become even more challenging and confrontation or a break up could be on the horizon. Indifference on your part can cause you to stay in non-productive relationships that offer little potential.
This period highlights love, friendship, and affection and signifies a new friendship of love or the intensification of a current relationship. While the influence is very positive, the power to produce movement in the opposite direction should not be underestimated nor the understanding of the duality of love and its potential to flip from attraction to repulsion.
The key word is jurisdiction and speaks more to the mundane aspects of this cycle. The focus may be on matters of a legal nature concerning decisions, judgment, and the authority to interpret and apply the law to enact justice. This may be in connection to a judge, magistrate, or person of rank entrusted with responsibilities and sensitive work requiring great skill and tact in connection to official documents. As a result, you may have active participation and cooperation with the public in some way. If this is not personal to your situation, it may play out in the public media.
