Today 5/21, the Sun leaves the grounded and slow-moving sign of Taurus and moves into the inquisitive, communicative sign of the twins- Gemini.

The tone shifts considerably as the Sun shifts and we are ready to hit the ground running.

One thing that Gemini possesses is speed.

Communication is key over these next few weeks.

We feel more light-hearted and we desire to get out and play a little more, to socialize.

Gemini falls under the element of air.  Intellectual, all about the mind.  This sign can never absorb enough knowledge, and they love to disperse this knowledge to others.

This sign can talk a lot but they are very fun to listen to as they are quite charismatic and engaging.

Gemini is ruled by planet Mercury A.K.A –  ‘The Messenger of the Gods’. 

Mercury communicates, and as a zippy planet, Mercury ruled signs communicate in a fast manner just like their ruling planet.

Is it any surprise that it has been statistically proven that many teachers and salespeople fall under this sign?  I think not!  Gemini is all about communication and teaching/learning.

Gemini is represented by the symbol of  the Twins, and the ruling tarot card is ‘The Lovers’.

This sign is knows for having its energy a bit scattered into two or more areas at once.  They are very good at spreading themselves thin, but they are actually able to follow the chaos most of the time, and may even prefer to not be confined to only one person/place/job/etc.

Many Geminis have more than one job, one home, or even ahem more than one relationship- which suits them just fine!

Gemini is a mutable sign, meaning changeable- they like to switch things up.

It has been said that this sign can appear to have a dual personality.  They certainly can, and this is not necessarily their fault!  Their moods and feelings tend to change from one minute to the next.  On the positive side, they are also very upfront and honest about this.

Like every sign, there are positive and not-so-positive character traits, but we can choose how to integrate and exist with these energies in a healthy manner.

As this sign is known to talk without a filter, they can be two-faced and truly enjoy gossip.

For the most part this is a fun loving sign that truly does not mean any harm, but you may not want to trust them with your deepest secrets.

They truly can’t help it, and they can talk out of both sides of their mouths.  Again: there’s a reason they make good salespeople!

Gemini characters are also very funny- they possess comedic abilities and can make your stomach hurt from laughing.

Don’t let this sign fool you though!  They absorb everything even when it appears that they are not paying attention.  This is one of their greatest gifts.  Tricksters they can be, both in an endearing and not-so-endearing way at times.

Many -a-Gemini will display a very soft soul when you can actually pin them down to have a deep conversation!  They are always on the move.

Happy Birthday to all of the Twins out there!

May Gemini season run smoothly for all….may the cosmos be kind to all of us over these next few weeks during these times of change.

I will be back with another energy read soon.

Peace & Love,

Lisa

 

 

 

Saturday 5/18 5:11 PM EST- we have an intense Full Moon in the introspective and intuitive Water sign, Scorpio.

Scorpio is power, transformation and succumbing to the shadow.

A Full Moon happens when the Sun is opposite the Moon.

This highlights the polarities (opposing forces) in our lives.

These polarities are of an emotional, physical and spiritual nature.  It can be one area or all three, and each Full Moon will feel different based on the sign and planetary aspects surrounding the Moon.

Awareness and emotion reach their peak and are heightened around Full Moons.  This is why we feel more edgy and anxious around these times, sometimes not even being able to sleep.

The Moon rules our subconscious, the raw emotions that lurk underneath the surface.

Everything comes to a head under this energy.  There is a tug of war between head and heart at this time.

Full Moons are about culmination and release.  This is the time where it is wise to allow the emotions to flow through us, and release whatever no longer serves our growth.

The Sun is in the Earth sign of Taurus while this Full Moon is in the opposite sign of Scorpio.

As both of these signs are fixed (immovable, deliberate and slow to change) we can feel a bit stuck in our minds and our hearts.  We know and feel things on a deep level, that there are things that need to change, but we may feel resistant at the moment.

Healing and transformation are the end game.

The key is to be ok with where you are at the moment, and not to force anything.  Being ok with it does not mean you don’t have to want to change anything, it just means that we need to accept the frustration as part of the process.

Be kind to yourself.

There are still a few spots left for the Full Moon Circle this coming Monday!  Check it out here

Come and join me from 7-9PM, Monday 5/20 for this Full Moon Goddess Circle!

I am SUPER excited to be hosting this.

Full Moon Goddess Circle

When: Monday 5/20 (In honor of Saturdays 5/18 Scorpio Full Moon)

Time: 7-9PM

Where: Sun Raven, Holistic Living Sanctuary

501 Guard Hill Rd, Bedford, NY 10506

*The event will take place behind the house in the back on the gorgeous property.  You will see a Tippee (you can’t miss it), and this is where we will be.

Plan to arrive about 10-15 minutes early so we can get situated.

*Please note that there is a real fire pit, so dress in clothes that you don’t mind if they smell like smoke, and dress comfortably.

During this two-hour event, I will guide you through a brief grounding exercise.  We will talk about the significance of this Full Moon and Full Moons in general, and everyone will receive an intuitive message, plus more.

I also ask that you bring a pen and something to write with as we will set our intentions and release them under the light of the Full Moon.

If you work with crystals and have a favorite (or a few) that you would like to charge, please bring those as well.

The only other thing I ask that you bring is an open heart. 🙂

This is going to be an inspiring and uplifting event.  Space is limited so secure your spot here.

More On This Event

Full Moons are feminine and very powerful.  The Moon rules both our emotional body and the flow of our energy.

Under the Full Moon we align ourselves with our hopes and fears, our desires and our purpose.

Each Full Moon brings with it a unique theme and energy according to the sign it falls under and the planetary activity surrounding it.

We will set intentions, as well as release which no longer serves us.

Looking forward to this!  You will receive another email as we get closer to the 20th, but if you have any questions, please email me here.

This will be a beautiful and inspiring evening, and I look forward to seeing you there!

Peace & Love,

Lisa

Saturday 5/4, 6:45 PM EST- we have an earthy and serene New Moon in the sign of the Bull, Taurus.

A New Moon marks the beginning of the lunar cycle, the movement of the moon through its different phases.

New Moons are a time of new beginnings.  The beginning of a new cycle, a time to initiate plans and projects, get things moving, a fresh start.  Abundance typically surrounds this energy.

The Sun aligns with the Moon in the sky when it’s a New Moon meaning, that they are in the same sign –Taurus.

Under the grounded energy of Taurus, the emphasis of this New Moon is what makes us feel stable and secure versus what actually contributes to our stability and security.

Yes, there is a difference and under this energy it will be easier to separate the two with conscious awareness.

Alterations can and will be made as necessary.

Planet Uranus, the ‘great awakener’ has just re-entered the sign of Taurus where it will stay until 2026. This is a big deal  and something we have not experienced in eight decades. 

What this means is that the winds of change are upon us, both collectively and individually – it’s all about keeping the faith and having trust.   

Remember that Taurus more than any other sign, as fixed-earth, truly gets complacent with their place in the world.

Uranus is the planet that shakes it all up…..so let’s think about how uncomfortable things may and can get at times.  Ultimately, it is for the greater good.  Let us not forget that Uranus is an agent for liberating change, and will always leave us better than we are found.

Taurus is ruled by planet Venus- the planet of love, beauty, and money.

In these areas of life, do we have all that we need?  Or are we getting too caught up in what we simply want? 

Are we utilizing all of our natural resources?   This refers to the resources we have within us, as well as what the earth (Taurus) provides for us. 

The earthy sign of Taurus is all about nature, mother earth.  This is a great time to connect to your soul while outside, soaking in all of the natural beauty that nature has to offer.

Go for a walk in the woods, get near some water, walk barefoot in the grass and connect to the earth.  All of these things will help clear your mind and set some intentions during Taurus season, but particularly while under this New Moon energy.

As Taurus rules money and New Moons are times of growth and abundance, look to your personal financial situation to make positive changes – to keep promoting growth and expand upon what you have.

Perhaps you are spending frivolously and now is a time to get a real plan in place for the future.  Perhaps you don’t spend on creature comforts at all and it’s time to loosen up your purse strings and enjoy yourself.

Look to how you call upon all of your resources.  Are you creatively and actively searching for, and implementing better ways to make it all work?  Are there people and circumstances that can be helpful to you at this time?  If so it is a good time to reach out, to stay in touch.

Under this New Moon you are being asked to have faith- to trust that all is where it should be at the moment and if it is not, you may experience a healthy shake-up, a break through.

There is quite a bit of ‘gnarly’ planetary activity right now so yes, while this New Moon is filled with abundance, intuition, positivity and creativity, there is also an element of anxiety and fear that is lurking beneath the surface.  Jupiter, Saturn, And Pluto are currently retrograde –post on that here.
