What does it all mean?
- Gemini is an air sign and needs lots of stimuli. She is ruled by Mercury.
- Gemini is connected to the 3rd house of: day-to-day travel/affairs and siblings…
- Dealings with family, especially siblings, may happen. Memories are shared and possible solutions to old problems can be found.
- We could find ourselves busy with multiple things going on, even if they are just in our own minds…
- “Tip”: If you do have tons of ideas spinning around in your head, jot them down… it will ease the “inside chatter” and you may find some of them useful later on.
- Could be lots of chit chatting going on, some of us may have to make a concerted effort to listen instead of chat.
- Caution is advised when doing up letters, emails and relaying messages, as much as we may think we have it right, it’s better to check one more time: Mercury has just gone retrograde (April 21), extra caution is advised when corresponding with others.
- A new study could be on the cards for some of us.. and it will likely be approached with enthusiasm.
- It’s a good time to get those lists and notes made up… we can feel good about putting pen to paper now.
- Boredom may be at our door step and we may feel more restless than usual.
- This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts.
-
-
- Sun in Gemini
- Moon in Gemini
- Moon in the 3rd house
- Moon or Sun in Sagittarius
- Any aspects to the Moon or Jupiter
-
-
NOTES:
- Monday, August 26th: The moon is showing only one aspect, a square to the Sun in Virgo. Squares can make things awkward, but they do help us to make necessary changes, sometimes, we need a push and Squares can help us to make the changes we keep putting off.
- Tuesday August 27th: Venus has one aspect, a trine to Uranus in Taurus, Trines are helpful and harmonious, bringing in co-operation and compromise. The Moon experiences 6 aspects throughout the day: Squares to Saturn in Pisces and Venus in Virgo. Conjunctions to Jupiter in Gemini and Mars in Gemini. Conjunctions can be either helpful or a hinderance: Sextiles to Mercury in Leo and Chiron in Aries. Sextiles are also “friendly” aspects, but can make it easier for us to remain in a “rut”, being comfortable isn’t always the best, sometimes we need to be motivated.
- Wednesday August 28th: Mercury turns direct, but remains in it’s storm (moving slowly) until September 3rd… Communications, technology and transportation issues may start to become resolved, but not everything will fall into place at once. Continue to double check all communications, and don’t be surprised by glitches re: technology/transportation. The moon experiences two squares, one to Venus in Capricorn and one to Neptune in Pisces. The moon moves into the sign of Cancer on Wednesday at 4;47am (ET) @ 1:47am (PT)

The Moon and Astrology
HOW IT AFFECTS OUR DAILY LIVES…
In astrology, the moon is connected to our emotions and reactions… how we are feeling on a given day may well be influenced by the sign that is visiting the moon… Each sign stays with the moon for up to 2.5 days…. :)
The Moon Void-of-Course:
There are times throughout the month when the moon isn’t fully immersed in any sign… this is when we say the moon is Void of Course… and when this occurs, we may feel “foggy” and “unfocused” … We may not be sure how we are truly feeling about a situation or a person…. Therefore it is not recommended that we make long-term commitments or important decision’s while the moon is Void of Course…. However there are 4 signs in the zodiac which may prove positive during the Void-of-Course moon…
Good for Void-Of-Course Moon:
These v/c signs may prove to be quite productive times.
- Cancer
- Taurus
- Sagittarius
- Pisces…
Opportunity Periods
There are other periods throughout the month that are known as opportunity periods, when it can prove to be a positive time for most people, however if you have challenging aspects happening within your own chart you may not be able to make use of opportunity periods.
Thanks to Paula Belluomini present day astrologer, William Lilly 17th century astrologer and Llewellyn’s Daily Planetary Guide for opportunity periods, dates and times.
