Timing: The Moon will spend the middle of this week in the Sign of Gemini, starting on Thursday the 16th at 6:18am UTC and ending on Saturday at 3:23pm UTC.
Moon in Gemini: Neutral placement for the moon, a foreign place without support. Very heady, intellectually stimulating. Conversation, connection with other people, trying to get a million things done, glibness. Can create anxiety and nervous tension, easy to get overwhelmed.
Triplicity and Quadruplicity: Mutable Air. Mutability is balanced between cardinality and fixedness, not as erratic and changing as the former, but not as solid and steady as the latter. The air element promotes mental stimulation and any activities which involve communication and language.
Moon’s ruler: Mercury. The Moon is averse to Mercury, but some of this difficulty is mitigated by the fact that they are in mtual reception, with Mercury in Cancer. She will still have support during her time here, without getting too far up in the clouds and disconnected from reality. This will also serve as usual to help ground her significations and make them longer lasting.
Aspects
Conjunct Venus. People will be friendlier towards each other and more inclined to be helpful. Conversations will run more smoothly, and the mutual sharing of ideas through discussion and debate will be more fruitful.
Sextile Mars. Positive energy for productivity, making positive strides. More initiative, more inspiration, and more enthusiasm.
Summary: This is an excellent time for making connections, meeting new people, and engaging in heady activity in general. Support from the moon’s ruler and other planets without any difficult aspects from malefics or the sun indicate that these days will be beneficial and fruitful.
