Remember how the Aries New Moon felt full of energy? That trend continues.
Overnight, the Sun and Moon formed the square-and-a-half that opens the Crescent phase. A slender moon sets in the west before midnight.
We are offered the first hints of our emerging goals or new awareness of what still holds us back.
With this Crescent Moon in Gemini, it could be both. In fact, we suddenly see a myriad of options and choices.
This Gemini Moon is conjunct the North Node. We face the future and see not one, but many. A trine to Saturn offers the clarity of quantum mechanics and some lovely equations describing many worlds. Possibly infinite worlds.
The Sun, Mercury, and the chaos goddess Eris are conjunct. They sextile Mars and Jupiter and square Pluto. We have important things to do. We don’t mind doing lots of things at once. In fact, the more plates we have spinning, the happier we feel.
Yesterday, Venus entered Taurus. Thank goddess. Surely her role is to provide calm, grounded energy.
Except Venus now applys to conjunct Uranus the revolutionary. Perhaps even feet-firmly-on-the-ground Venus in Taurus is ready for change.
This could be a day for feeling scattered or overwhelmed, as if too many things are coming at us at once.
If that happens, take a breath. Step back. Look at the unfolding spectacle and think, wow, this is fascinating. Let your curiousity spark. Realize we can only perceive and process a small fraction of what the world presents to us.
Our lives are filled with important, precious, dangerous, and amazing things. As we step into this Crescent phase, we can appreciate just how much is going on.
We can open our vision and our hands to gather in more than we thought we could manage. We can keep what fits our world. and let the rest go to find their own places in other worlds.
Everything has a place. We are not responsible for all of it. We can enjoy or let go, hanging on only to what fits for us.
