This week, on May 27th, there’s a New Moon in Gemini, the star sign of duality. Gemini rules communication which means this is an important New Moon for talk, conversation, negotiations and ideas.
Find yourself a friend (or an enemy), have those all important heart-to-hearts and use the dynamic New Moon energy to start the ball rolling, initiate a conversation and get things moving.
Notice your mind and whether it’s unusually busy. Air signs, like Gemini, can overthink things and you may have a lot on your mind or your ‘to do’ list during this New Moon phase.
You might be commuting more than usual or be on a road trip – Gemini rules transport and is a star sign that loves to be on the move.
Make A Wish
The two week period between the New Moon on May 27th and the Full Moon on June 11th is an ideal time to be pro-active, forward-thinking and get going. All the personal planets are now moving forward and May’s New Moon could be the start of something new.
This New Moon is especially lovely for making a wish as communication planet Mercury sits next to the Sun and Moon. Plus, on May 30th, there’s a Sun/Mercury cazimi conjunction which has magic within it. Line up an important meeting, set your intentions, believe in miracles. If you have planets or angles between 6-9° Gemini, you’re in the sweet spot.
There’s one more lucky date to note as the planet of opportunity Jupiter will complete its journey through Gemini on June 9th. The day before, June 8th, there’s a brilliant Mercury-Jupiter conjunction at 29° Gemini. This combination favours luck and opportunity, tests and exams and is a symbol of good news.
8 ways to make the most of this week’s New Moon:
1. Be still during the exact time of the New Moon – see date/times above. It’s ideal for meditation, active gratitude and looking ahead.
2. Set your intentions for the coming fortnight on or shortly after the date/time of the New Moon. Write them down, say them out loud. This is the time to use the pro-active energy of the New Moon phase.
3. Make a wish when you first catch sight of the crescent moon. This will appear in the night sky a day or two after the New Moon date.
4. Pick up the phone, send an email, fire off a text during the crescent moon phase. This is an excellent time of the month to book an appointment, line up a meeting or interview or apply for a job or new role. Gemini’s nature is quick and lively. Use witty repartee to get yourself noticed.
5. Read a book, do puzzles, study something new, go back to school. Being curious is a Gemini trait. Research proves that using your mind and brain power keeps you youthful and engaged in life. Master a language, hone your skills, keep learning.
6. Gemini’s ruling planet, Mercury, is also in Gemini during the New Moon. Mercury is moving swiftly which favours the waxing phase of the Moon. Therefore, another reason to be spontaneous and speedy. Ideally, make your move before Mercury leaves Gemini on June 8th.
7. Gemini is a social star sign and this is a positive time to enjoy yourself and have fun. Gemini rules siblings and neighbours, also your local community. Which people are foreground in your life and how can you use your connections to benefit one another?
8. Change your mind. Gemini is one of the mutable star signs, changeable and restless. Most Geminis have a flip side to their nature and don’t always say what they mean. You could use this New Moon phase to switch allegiance, change sides or play devil’s advocate. Gemini’s the trickster who keeps everyone on their toes.
