The Tides of Change

During the week, between the waning Moon and the new Moon, the wandering stars are silent as the Moon alone translates light from one planet to another. The Moon, that aspect of our self reflecting our need for emotional security and our emotional reaction to our experiences in life, is the fastest moving celestial body touring the entire zodiac in one month. If we relate this cycle with our natal chart we see that our emotional experiences for the first month of our life are repeated every month throughout our life. Until we have awareness of what is happening, we will experience the monthly lunar cycle as emotional fluctuation, perhaps even instability, and our security and comfort in life will feel determined by the tides of change.

Promises, Promises, Promises. This weekend Mercury is our celestial trickster and teaser making promises he can’t deliver at least not for the moment. Mercury in Gemini has reached a virtual standstill ready to station Rx on May 26, and missing by a hair’s breath a harmonious aspect with the Nodes and a square with Uranus forcing us to wait it out until making an exact contact in early July. If your life is anything like mine at the moment you are juggling more than enough balls and mightily challenged to keep them all dancing in the air. Brainstorming is a guaranteed activity when Sun, Venus, and Mercury are in Gemini and we can use the time between now and early July to refine our thinking. If something isn’t working well for us it may be because we haven’t considered all the possibilities. When Mercury stations retrograde it is for 3 weeks, and during that time we are given the opportunity to re-consider, re-evaluate, and re-think how we communicate our thoughts and feelings. When Mercury is in the sign of ruler ship, as now, the forces are upon us to make adjustments in how we communicate. Now is a great time to let a lot of information filter in but not a great time for making long term commitments because right now our experiences are flowing like air and need constant movement not containment. We should have a better idea of what we want to contain once Mercury goes direct in mid June. Mercury enjoys playing the trickster and at the moment life is not as it seems, so enjoy the flurry of activity, keep your mind flexible, your heart open, and look beyond the obvious.
