NOTES:

  • Gemini is ruled by the planet Mercury and is connected to the 3rd house.
  • Gemini is a masculine, air, mutable sign.
  • Gemini is one of the dual signs of the zodiac
  • Versatile, changeable, fun, neighbourhood knowledgeable and chatty, are a few of the traits of our Gemini friends and loved ones. They are fun to be around, happy to try new experiences with either quick mind or one that may be slightly slower, but equally capable of gathering little bits of knowledge along the journey we call life.. However, they can get bored easily, and when this happens the usual happy go lucky attitude can change to one of moodiness and sensitivity.

We hope that your year ahead is filled with goodness, light and love…

To a lessor effect, Sagittarius, Scorpio and Libra.
  • 5) Aspects for May 22: Venus in Cancer experiences a challenging aspect to Neptune in Aries early hours (ET). The Sun in Gemini experiences a variable aspect to Uranus in Gemini.

For the most part it looks like an o.k. day.. surprises may be in store for some of us, hopefully happy ones. A good understanding of what’s need to be done, even the chores that have been put on the back burner for a while. May be a good day for healing, as the energy and pioneering spirit of Aries will push for it.

NOTES:

  • 1) Aspects: May 23. The Moon experiences 7 aspects, most are challenging. Don’t expect things to go the way you may have envisioned today. Unexpected messages bring news you may not have wanted, but that will force you to make some decisions that need to be made. Probably not a good day to try and do any decorating or updating to your “safe space” as it’s not likely to go smoothly. Changes may be on the horizon for some of us. Love sent to anyone who may experience a loss during this time. Take care of your health when feeling under the weather, if you listen well to your body it will let you know when it needs a little bit of self TLC. Boredom may be an issue, feelings of restlessness may bring out the worst in some, Finding a healthy way of releasing extra energy is recommended. The signs likely to most affected are: Virgo, Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Aquarius and Cancer. To a lessor effect, Pisces, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra and Capricorn. 
  • 2) Aspects, May 24: The Moon experiences two aspects, a challenging one and a positive one. the last occurring as she goes void of course. The day begins with a challenging aspect, and getting our point across might not be an easy task. Some of us could be feeling sensitive about an issue, however, finding someone to have empathy or compassion to those feelings might be a tough go. Better to leave any emotionally sensitive discussion until another day if possible. By the evening, things should start to get better, with life on the home front expanding in positivity… News of a pregnancy might be in the cards for some. The Sun in Gemini experiences a positive aspect with Neptune in Aries, late into the night, so we might not all be able to take advantage of this… but if you can go for it… Our imagination is on fire and who knows what fantastic ideas can be birthed now. The signs likely to be most affected are: Gemini and Sagittarius.

May 25 @ 10:34 am (ET) @7:34 am (PT) The Moon moves into the sign of Libra

  • Moon is in the 2nd quarter
  • Moon void of course: May 27 @7:32 am (ET) @4:32 am (PT)
  • Opportunity Period: None
  • Click Here to see our past post of the transiting moon in Libra

NOTES:

  • 1) May 25 is Memorial Day in the USA, we wish our neighbours an enjoyable and safe long weekend. 
  • 2) Aspects for May 25: The Moon experiences 5 aspects from early afternoon into late evening. 3 are positive aspects and two are challenging aspects. Some of us could get the itch to do something fun and new with our surroundings. Negotiations could go well if the right people are doing the negotiating, otherwise there will be a stalemate. An unexpected outcome to an ongoing situation is likely. Dealings with loved ones and work mates may not go smoothly and some folks could get their feathers ruffled. Best not to push emotional issues right now. Check your emotions, are you over reacting or is this mood warranted? Dreams could be dashed now, so take care who you share your deepest wishes with. In the PT zone, around 9pm, Mars in Taurus will hit a snag with Pluto in Aquarius. A situation needs to come to an end, but someone might be being more stubborn then they need to be, making it impossible to come to a mutual agreement. The signs most affected are: Libra, Gemini, Aries, Taurus and Aquarius and to a lessor effect, Sagittarius, Scorpio and Leo.
  • 3) Aspects for May 26: Mars in Taurus hits a snag with Pluto in Aquarius in the ET zone, early hours. (see above). The Moon makes a total of 3 aspects beginning early in the morning and throughout the morning hours, 2 Aspects are challenging, one is positive. The Sun in Gemini experiences a positive aspect with Pluto in Aquarius just before noon. There may be push back regarding a situation, or bickering between family members, (especially kids), it’s a tense sort of day, with some of feeling like we are on guard. We could balk at our responsibilities today, so it’s probably not the best time to say yes to any added responsibilities. There is a sense of fun in the air, of not taking things too seriously, it’s more of a “lets try this” feel to the day. Keep in mind that new experiences may not go as planned. Signs likely to most affected are, Taurus, Aquarius, Cancer, Aries and Gemini, to a lessor effect, Scorpio, Leo, Capricorn and Sagittarius.
  • 4) Aspects for May 27 up to Moon into Scorpio. The Moon experiences 3 aspects, only one is a positive one. The first aspect begins early in the am (ET) having occurred in the PT already. A good connection between the mind and emotions, making decision making easier to do, creating a sense of calm in the day. Some of us may not like the way things are heading on the domestic front, perhaps folks aren’t doing their chores or getting homework done on time, and things just keep piling on top of each other. Do what you can, take a breather and when the energy presents, get a little bit more organized. The signs likely to be affected are, Libra, Gemini, Cancer and Aries, to lessor effect, Sagittarius and Capricorn.

May 27 @ 8:53pm (ET) @ 5:53pm (PT) The Moon moves into the sign of Scorpio

  • Moon is in the 2nd quarter
  • Moon void of course: May 29 @8:05 am (ET) @5:05 am (PT)
  • Opportunity Period: None
  • Click Here to see our past post of the transiting moon in Scorpio

NOTES:

  • 1) Aspects May 27th: The Moon experiences one challenging aspect late night PT zone. 
  • 2)Aspects May 28th: The Moon experiences a total of 7 aspects throughout the day into the night. 5 are challenging aspects taking place before noon, the last two aspects occurring late evening include one positive and one challenging. Venus experiences a challenging aspect late night. This could be a busy day for some, as there is a chaotic feel to the energy around us. A challenging day, as domestic/family duties clash with outside responsibilities, this could be a good time to balance out these life area’s. Change is in the air, this may be difficult for some folks to adjust to, and while others have been feeling eager and restless for change, this might not be the change you were anticipating. Take care when driving or using power tools. Signs most likely to be affected are, Scorpio, Gemini, Aries, Aquarius, Taurus and Cancer and to a lessor effect, Sagittarius, Leo and Capricorn. 
  • 3) Aspects May 29th: The Moon experiences two aspects, one is positive, occurring late evening, (during voc) the other is challenging occurring late night PT zone. Likely, a much quieter and calmer day then yesterday… some of us may even feel slightly bored. Signs most likely to be affected are, Scorpio, Cancer and Gemini, to a lessor effect, Taurus, Capricorn and Sagittarius. 
  • 4) Aspects May 30th up to Moon into Sagittarius. The Moon experiences two challenging aspects beginning in the early morning hours. Signs most likely to be affected are, Scorpio, Gemini and Aries, to a lessor effect, Taurus, Sagittarius and Libra.  

May 30th @ 8:45 am (ET) @ 5:45 am (PT) the Moon moves into the sign of Sagittarius. 

  • Moon is in the 2nd quarter
  • Moon void of course: May 31 @9:21 am (ET) @6:21 am (PT)
  • Opportunity Period: None
  • Click Here to see our past post of the transiting moon in Sagittarius

NOTES: 

  • 1) Aspects May 30th: Moon experiences 3 aspects, beginning just after noon, (challenging) with the other two, which are positive, beginning in the evening. A bit of a bumpy ride in the first part of the day, where resistance to something is strong. On the other hand, it’s possible that someone(s) are fighting hard for a change. (Likely within the community/neighbourhood). Through  persistent “rebellious” actions, something wonderful may happen… and may be connected to the change mentioned above. For the most part the afternoon should go well, with a healthy pinch of positivity thrown in. Signs most likely to be affected are, Sagittarius, Gemini, Aries and Aquarius, to a lessor effect, Libra and Leo. 
  • 2) Aspects May 31st: Moon experiences two challenging aspects before going void of course, and then experiences 3 more aspects. Positive, Challenging back to positive. Beginning early am and moving throughout the day into the evening. This is the day of the Full Moon. The early morning hours could bring a challenging few hours into the mix, communicating what you really think could be censored or muted. As we move through the day and after the Full Moon connection, things should start to ease up a bit.. Personal energy levels could be elevated, giving us the much needed motivation to get to those household chores and family responsibilities we may have been avoiding. If you have been suffering from ill health, today is a good day to take things seriously with a dash of light heartedness, your body will feel it and boost the healing. 
  • 3) FULL MOON in Sagittarius. The moon becomes full on May 31st at 4:45 am (ET) @ 1:45 am (PT). The full moon is traditionally believed to be a time of completion and endings. In modern times, we like to say it’s also a good time to finish up the projects we have had on the go but keep putting on back shelve for “later”. A suggestion for anyone thinking of initiating a relationship break up… please think carefully of what you say and how you say, we love Sagittarius for her fun loving ways, and explorative spirit, but she can be very blunt at times, hurting feelings without the intention of doing so. Her energy is upon us during this Full Moon.

The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life: Transiting Moon/Sign Changes: April 17/26 (New Moon)

  • April 15 @ 10:04 am (ET) @ 7:04 am (PT) Moon moves into the sign of Aries
  • Moon is in the 4th quarter.
  • Opportunity Period: None: 
  • NOTES:
  • NEW MOON occurs on April 17th in the sign of Aries @7:52 am (ET) @ 4:52 am (PT). While the moon is just at the tail end of being in the sign of Aries, she will soon be off course as the New Moon presents her self… both Aries and Taurus (the next sign the moon moves into) traits may influence this New Moon. 
  • Aspects April 15:  The moon sees 5 aspects: Conjunctions to Mercury in Aries, Neptune in Aries and Mars in Aries. Aries is a fire sign, he doesn’t like sitting around waiting for things to happen for him, he is a pioneer, somewhat selfish and impatient, but he’s the guy you want to come to your rescue… with all this action in Aries, watch for short tempers and emotional insensitivity, accidents along with having a new found courage to go after what you want… 
  • Aspects April 16: the Sun in Aries Conjuncts with Chiron in Aries: The moon squares Jupiter in Cancer: Mars in Aries Sextiles Pluto in Aquarius: Mercury in Aries conjuncts with Neptune in Aries. (this could be a favorable conjunction as apposed to a challenging one, especially if patience is applied to all situations)

Aspects and how they affect our daily lives:

  • Conjunctions: Variable, they can present either positive or challenging events/situations and people depending on the signs and planets involved
  • Quincunx: Challenging, they can create frustrations regarding dealings with people, events or situations… the “actors” involved do not share any similarities. 
  • Opposition: Challenging, as the “actors” are at odds with each other, but with a little work and patience compromises can be made
  • Squares: Challenging, due to friction between the “actors” involved, however, friction can bring about needed change… while frustrating these little guys, can help us to grow. 
  • Sextile: Positive, the “actors” involved are happy to be together and more then happy to work together, good things are possible
  • Trine: Positive, good for chilling out, and relaxing, these guys are also happy to be together, but neither one may have the motivation to do anything, so it’s possible that nothing constructive will get done with these guys in play. 
  • All planetary movement, will affect those who have such active players (planets/signs) in their birth charts, the rest of us may feel the affects too, but to a lessor extent. However, those with opposite sign placements may also be affected by such movements, to lessor extent, but perhaps more then those who have no such personal chart placements.  

NOTE: If you kept waking up all night last night, track the New and Full Moon’s for each month and how you sleep during those times. Personally, both the New and Full Moon’s disrupt my sleep, My Ascendant is in Cancer, Cancer is ruled by the moon… 😊

How to slow down in this fast paced world? SGC shares some guidance from Dawn James, Soulful Life Coach & Author

How to embrace slow living in a fast-paced world

The world is not going to slow down for you.

The notifications will keep arriving, the deadlines will keep pressing, and the cultural narrative that busyness equals worth will continue to assert itself at every turn.

Embracing slow living in a fast-paced world is therefore not about waiting for the pace of modern life to accommodate you; it is about cultivating, within yourself and in the corners of your life, an island of genuine presence, depth, and . . .

  • Some of us may feel needy, while others of us are happy to be the needed, helping our loved ones feel secure. Caution is advised that some of us can go over board on the needy thing during this moon period, so be careful if you don’t want to “scare” someone off…

NOTES: 

Mercury in retrograde motion: Take care with all communications… double check appointment dates… expect delays in travel, due to technology issues, weather issues and communication issues…try you very best to be patient with everyone and everything😬 … Mercury retrograde is a challenging time, that’s for sure… but it can also be a time where we can make some positive changes in our lives, and in our mindset….

if something negative keeps showing up in your life, perhaps it needs to no longer be a part of your life? 🤷‍♀️.. at least for the time being… look at the situation with eyes wide open… be honest with your part, and make your decision… stay stuck or wiggle free and move on?…

Mercury, is related to movement, technology, communications… and so much more… he is one of the closer planets to our planet earth, so his influence can be fairly strong…. challenge yourself this Mercury retrograde… What can you learn, how can you bring in more calm to your life…???

 

“Lord help me control the things that I can

 help me let go of the things that I cannot control

And help me to know the difference”….. 🙏

  • 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 astrologer and Llewellyn’s Daily Planetary Guide for opportunity periods and dates.
