Moon into Gemini: What Needs to be Said?

Tuesday morning through Thursday morning

The Moon jumped into Gemini early this morning, ready to make new connections. During this Moon transit, we remember Gemini is a trickster, the spirit of Coyote as well as butterfly, the one whose unexpected messages startle us into a new perspective.

The Gemini Moon squared Neptune in Pisces this morning, leaving me (and you perhaps) with morning dreams full of odd images and bright colors. Gemini and Pisces are mutable signs, flexible and transitional, so their squares look less like a boxing match and more like a dance.

In a few hours, Mars in Gemini will square Chiron in Pisces. Perhaps the Moon-Neptune connection brought dreams of healing, that Mars and Chiron will now act on. Or perhaps today we'll work out innovative ways to move into our own paths of healing and mentorship.

Just after noon, the Moon flows energy in sextile with radical Uranus in Aries. What these two will get up to, is anyone's guess! Gemini is a canny communicator, while Uranus in Aries goes straight to the point. This afternoon's combination could lead to finding the right, light touch for communicating a difficult message, or blurting out a devastating but liberating truth.

This transit through Gemini brings more than mere words, as the Moon joins Mars this afternoon. This is a reminder that speech is also action, and what we say, or what we don't say, has consequences. It's also an invitation to lightness, humor, and fun. Perhaps a holy fool or a jester will arrive.

Just after midnight, the Gemini Moon trines Saturn in Libra. This could be a meeting of the muses, a flow of creative ideas and images. You might find yourself burning the midnight oil, magical words flowing from your fingers, or exploring a night of amazing dreams offering guidance.

Wednesday, Gemini Mars forms an inconjunct angle-of-adjustment to Pluto in Capricorn, asking for a lighter, brighter touch to Pluto's relentless progress. Pluto says the only way to get past some things is to go right through them, but today, Gemini Mars might find a trap door or secret gate to get around.

Overnight Wednesday, the Moon joins the South Node and opposes the North, offering dream messages about our life path. Early Thursday morning (3:32am EDT), the Moon joins Venus in Gemini, touching our morning dreams with more creative inspiration and beautiful images. This is the Moon's last classical aspect in Gemini, beginning a brief void-of-course time until she steps into her home sign of Cancer just after noon.

During this Moon transit through Gemini, listen for messages that may come fast and furious. If it seems impossible to sort them out, don't try. Watch for the ones that alight on your shoulder, with brilliant wings, bright eyes, or maybe a bushy tail.
