What does it all mean?
- Gemini is an air sign and needs lots of stimuli. She is ruled by Mercury and is connected to the 3rd house.
- The 3rd house is the house of: day-to-day travel/affairs and siblings…
- We could find ourselves busy with multiple things going on, even if they are just in our own minds…
- Dealings with family, especially siblings, may occur. Memories are shared and possible solutions to old problems can be found.
- We may find we are trying to do multiple things at once, which may not go exactly as we may have planned. If you do find you have tons of ideas spinning around in your head, take pen to paper and 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, and 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
- A new study could be on the cards for some of us.. 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 Mercury
-
-
NOTES:
- April 1st: April Fools Day: Anyone know the origin of April’s Fools Day? I was going to ask Grok, but thought I would ask you guys instead… ☺
- Mercury, who is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo, is currently in Retrograde motion. He will be a little unsettled and maybe confused during this time, it’s not a time for new beginnings, it’s more a time of reflection and re-doing what needs to get redone…
- Venus, who rules Libra and Taurus is also in retrograde motion… it’s best to wait until after April the 12th to begin important projects, if you can’t wait, do your due diligence, just to cover all your basis… be prepared for mixed messages. Venus rules over beauty and money.

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.


FULL MOON in Capricorn June 21 @9:08pm (ET) @6:08pm (PT). The Full Moon energy will strengthen all that is listed above. As the Moon becomes full, it can be seen as a culmination of a months worth of work/play and knowledge seeking. For creative projects it can signify the completion of such projects.. Projects, situations that aren’t coming to a close now, may experience a bit of a pause, a time to adjust tweak and reflect. Traditionally, it is thought that the full moon energy is not the best energy to begin something new under. Capricorn can be work/career orientated, sometimes to the extent of other relationships being “put on hold”… As the Full Moon represents closure or endings, it may be possible to put an end to situations that are no longer fulfilling… such situations may include, career direction, work preferences, or the changing/ending of relationships, especially those connected to work/career.
The Sun moved into the sign of Cancer ♋on Thursday June 20th. Cancer is one of the most nurturing signs of the zodiac and one of the most sensitive… Cancer folks, try not to be too helpful towards your loved ones, sometimes it can get a little overwhelming for them,💙 … Loved ones of Cancer folks, be patient with them, harshness isn’t something they blossom on… 😊Cancer is ruled by the moon, (emotions) she is water (sensitive) connected to the 4th house of domestic bliss and family…When upset or confused, Cancer, like her sign depiction the crab, may become hermit like, trying to escape from the harshness of reality, in these instances all she needs is a big hug and some understanding… She is the opposite sign to Capricorn, once the full moon energy in Capricorn has passed, Cappies, might encounter a few challenges… patience, empathy and compassion are good guidelines for this month. 

February 2nd i
The Sun enters into the sign of Aquarius ♒ on January 20th @ 3:30 am (ET) @ 12:30 am (PT). Aquarius is the opposite sign to Leo on the wheel, so whatever affects Aquarius folks will also affect Leo’s, although to a much lessor extent. Aquarius ruled by the planet Uranus, is like a “jack of all trades”, These folks enjoy group, team or community work, and many exhibit humanitarian tendencies. Our Aquarius brothers and sisters, have a uncanny ability to “see into the future” especially when it comes to new fangled technology or tools of their trade. Creative and intelligent, with a bit of a stubborn streak, and sometimes a bit of an “airy fairy” attitude to life, Aquarius, while being an air sign, who are mostly resistant to confrontations, has a rebellious side and they aren’t afraid to bring it out at the oddest of times… (A direct Uranus connection, Uranus is the planet of chaos and surprises.) The Sun is said to be in Detriment when in he sign of Aquarius. When a planet is in detriment, the energies of that planet are less prominent, perhaps, weaker… For Aquarius this may translate into a hesitation when it comes to doing things for ones self. You may put the needs of others before you own… This is fabulous, but only if it doesn’t lead to negative self talk or feelings of resentment when time run short and you can’t get to do the things you enjoy. Growth is possible with the Sun in Aquarius, however, such growth may not go as one would have anticipated. Let your light shine anyway, especially on that most special of days, the day that you were born… 😁
We wish all Aquarius (January 20th to February 19th 2023) an absolutely fabulous Born Day… 🎂🍨🍰
