Gemini Season with a Twist ✨
Gemini Season 👯
(You can find S hemisphere at bottom of page) As we enter the northern summery season of logic and learning, the Sun in Gemini will be squared by sign to Saturn & Neptune adding a strange attractor in the chaos math. With the square to Saturn we are learning how to calibrate to each new moment in a more serious way than Gemini normally brings. And with the square to Neptune, we are learning to calibrate to other metrics besides pure logic (think magic).
The trine to Pluto in Aquarius indicates that it’s time to get smarter! This is a good time to add neuroplasticity practices and herbs to your self-care roster. Ashwaganda, rhodiola & ginkgo are good places to start. The Jupiter in Taurus medicine is timely and important for the whole planet, but it’s giving humans the gift of tuning into the pleasure frequency of simply being alive and in a body. The Jupiter squares with Mars & Pluto tell us that in order to prepare for where we are headed through this Kali Yuga passage, we need to become as deeply human as we can. Mars in Leo says don’t be afraid of your own light!
The yin of Taurus is where we get nourished so that when Jupiter goes into Gemini and Neptune into Aries later on, we will have a grounded and solid base from which to expand into the roiling extroversion that follows this naturally supported introversion and self care year.
Use this year wisely to fill your cup & your coffers.
“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.” -Rilke ————- Monday May 22 Think with your heart The waxing Moon in her own sign makes a stabilizing trine to Saturn, as Mars in Leo squares Jupiter in Taurus, and opposes Pluto in Aquarius Rx. We can meet the obstacles in our path with an authentic connection to the truth that lives in our heart, vs falling prey to the pathological propaganda that vies for your vitality each day. Tuesday May 23 The full feelings of the Cancer Moon join Venus in a celebration of love, home, family & tribe while their sextile to Uranus suggests that it’s time for the tribe to think outside of the box. How can you move forward into the future thinking about land, food, cultivation and preservation of resources? What old ways still work and what new ideas need to be added in to have resiliency? Wednesday May 24 Red flag Astro weather: Today we have the lunar activation of the very tense fixed t-square between Jupiter Pluto and Mars. Watch out for hotheadedness and reactivity today as Venus also squares Chiron highlighting the places we don’t feel loved or lovely. Try going out of your way to be extra kind and non reactive. Thursday May 25 Another tense day as Mars square the Nodes & the Leo Moon squares Mercury & Uranus. This is a classic “fuck you I won’t do what you tell me!” mood, so take that attitude and go for a run or some other expenditure of physical energy to blow off steam. Mars on the Nodes often brings violence on the world stage so say a prayers of peace today. Friday May 26 We soften today as the Leo Moon gets out of reach of all the intensity and we can use the day creatively. In the evening the Moon moves into Virgo and makes a happy sensual trine with Jupiter in Taurus. Good date nite! Saturday May 27 The Gemini Sun makes a square to Saturn in Pisces as the Virgo Moon opposes Saturn. This is a lot of mutable energy that’s somewhat muted by the Saturn input. There are mixed messages today between introversion and extroversion and all around nervous system tension. This is a good day for nervine teas such as passionflower or lavender. Sunday May 28 Today is a good day to clean and organized as the productive Virgo Moon trines Mercury & Uranus. Clean out some cupboards and make some room for yourself to be different and new rather than being defined by a bunch of old clutter.
In light of the economic realities of 2023, I am opening my practice to an ongoing sliding scale from $175-150 for full length readings.

Welcoming in Gemini season as the Gemini Moon squares Neptune giving us a zany entrance into the time of the twins, of excessive thinking, of cross pollination and deft humor. In the north we begin the ascent to the Solar peak of the year, and in the south we head towards the deepest darkest part of wintertime. Gemini is a time of extremes and a chance to learn from people how best to survive and thrive in this ever changing world.
