Today we have the full moon, with the sun in Gemini and the moon in Sagittarius. Both are mutable signs, which means this full moon is very fluid. Adaptability, redemption, and resurrection are all themes of this auspicious time, and this is underscored by the fact that this full moon is known as the Festival of Humanity in esoteric astrology. This is a time to celebrate who we are, individually and collectively.

In fact, there is a mutable sign T-Square in effect right now, between the north node of the moon in Pisces, Uranus in Gemini, and the sun and moon opposition in loose orbs. The mutable T-square is challenging and concerns dying and being born again. It is the pattern of the resurrected God or Goddess, stirring us to action to reinvent ourselves. This sets the stage for preparation for the upcoming Mercury retrograde at the end of the month. Until then, we may find it wise to evaluate where we are and what we need to become to get where we want to go.

There is a lot of activity currently in Gemini and Aries, and remember that air feeds fire, which means that now is a time of motion, specifically forward motion, and connecting with others to move ahead. Pioneering ahead and doing what is right are all themes to embrace during this time, and communication and connection are two major tools to help you get there. By sharing your vision with others, you may find common goals and shared interests.

Before the end of the month, two slower-moving planets, Jupiter and Chiron, will enter new signs for the first time in years, and with them comes challenges having to do with healing and vitality. And, these two planets are in addition to others such as the sun, moon, and Venus, making this an active month, which might catch you off guard if you’re not careful.

However, for now it is good to simply enjoy the simple pleasures of life. Good food with good friends, and good things coming to you through your home and close loved ones may be cherished at this time. Yes, this is a time of indulgence, but indulgence with close ones may be the medicine the doctor ordered. This also means now is a good time to stay at home and binge your favorite show, such as Ancient Civilizations season 7 on Gaia, where you can find me. Whatever you do, enjoy what matters most, and leave other fights for other days and other places.

Make your plans, enjoy your creature comforts, and treat yourself, because once solstice arrives, the next six weeks after that are going to be intense, so consider this full moon a time of rest before things get active.

Namaste,
