June 3rd, 2008 New Moon at 13 degrees of Gemini
Hello fellow star gazers…are you ready for the Mercury retrograde and the New Moon at 13 degrees of Gemini? I think all of you students need to see the setup for the Mercury retrograde this month. Mercury went retrograde on May 26th, 2008 at 21 degrees of Gemini. Mercury goes direct on June 19th, 2008 at 13 degrees of Gemini. The degree of the New Moon and the direct motion of Mercury occupy the same degree. The information it reports is simple. Gemini is the sign of the twins and also represents communications. The challenge of the New Moon at 13 degrees of Gemini will have everything to do with communications. Let’s look back in May when Mercury was first at 13 degrees of Gemini. May 12th is when Mercury first passed 13 degrees of Gemini. What was going on for you during the period of May 12th to May 26th, 2008? These are the issues that will be delayed and not resolved until Mercury passes the degrees of Gemini 21 degrees on July 4th, 2008. I hope that you will look in your ephemeris and follow along with the Mercury transit. This month another planet goes retrograde and it is Uranus. Mark your calendar for May 27th for Uranus (the planet of freedom and the spontaneity) and review the past few months. If you have Uranus in good aspect in your natal chart, you will love this review. Pluto is retrograde and leaves Capricorn on June 14th, 2008 to revisit your Sagittarius energy once more.
FYI-My forecasts should be read by your rising sign. It will be
more significant for you.
ARIES-(March 21-April 19)
The New Moon is at 13 degrees of Gemini in your 3rd house of communications, brothers and sisters and community. You are naturally assertive and are not prone to being patient so this will be a remarkably long month for you. I say this because things will move slowly, especially, when it comes to what you want most to happen yesterday.
On the other hand, this New Moon will trine your 11th house of goals telling me that you will receive a lot of energy from this New Moon and it promises much. Neptune is retrograde and you may have unanswered questions in the back of your head. Keep your fingers crossed and try to relax. You will not be able to make it go away any faster by wishing.
TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)
The New Moon is in your 2nd house of finances, love and values. You have set your mind to something and now all you have to do is wait. There has been a lot of talk about what the probabilities and possibilities are and they all seem to revolve around career. Interestingly enough, your perceptions are positive and resolute. There may be some delays in finances but you are tenacious enough not to give up. If this has to do with love, you are confused, but it all works out.
GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)
This New Moon takes place in your 1st house of personality and action. You will be the center of attention for awhile. Your energy is going outward and you are trying to reposition yourself in something that expresses the real you. This will be a testy month, but in the end, you will emerge triumphant. Mercury goes retrograde in your 1st house delaying some expectant results. Neptune is retrograde confusing some issues that deal with your philosophy and what is possible. Remember that old saying that the grass is always greener somewhere else. Keep this in mind as you get your wish.
CANCER-(June 21-July 22)
This New Moon takes place in your 12th house of the past and preparation. You are possibly preparing for an event with every ounce of energy you can muster. Communications are strong and offer no answers and some delays in respect to what you are waiting for. People from the past and situations that are hidden seem to be welling up. Neptune is retrograde in your 8th house of other people’s money and confusion can arise when it comes to expectant finances. Money can be good and, possibly thought provoking, but your perceptions are positive.
LEO-(July 23-August 22)
This New Moon takes place in Gemini at 13 degrees in your 11th house of personal goals, hopes and wishes. This is mainly all about what you want and if you can having it your way. Mercury is retrograde and delays that deal with your future seem imminent. There is an optimism that is in the air that has to do with partnerships and the general public but you are still worried. Neptune is retrograde and produces this kind of confusion. Your goals are safe and still working in your favor. Your stubbornness will save you.
VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)
This New Moon takes place in your Gemini 10th house of career ruled by the planet Mercury. Mercury is retrograde. Enough said. Your creative level is high and enhanced by the Neptune retrograde. It is possible and probable that your goals seem to have taken a back seat for the time being as you have to deal with the workings of your daily life. You are reinventing yourself and that’s not so easy. It will all happen in time. Your anxiety level will not make it happen any more quickly. Perfection is an ideal, not a reality.
LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)
This New Moon takes place in your 9th house of philosophy, higher education, legal matters and foreign affairs. This is an enticing time for you as you ponder your future. You may have come to a delay you never expected but, alas, you will need this time to accomplish all that you want to do. Romance is a little iffy but only because you don’t know what you want. Neptune is retrograde and usually promises more that it can deliver. Take heart, sweet Libra, everything happens a day at a time and you are at the beginning of a journey.
SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)
This New Moon takes place in your 8th house of other people’s money and promises you some positive changes at home. Promises are wonderful; however, the reality will be delayed for a time. Mercury is retrograde in your 8th causing these delays. Neptune in your 4th house of home and core issues promises much, however nothing is going anywhere. Your intuitive nature and perceptiveness will keep you going on the right track. It’s all about slowing down and digging in.
SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)
This New Moon takes place in your 7th house of partnerships and general public. This is a placement that deals directly with others. Unexpected delays are very possible in this area but you will need the time. Money can be difficult as a result. Neptune is retrograde and may cause some confusion with brothers and sisters as will be the interactions that you have with neighbors, co-workers and community. Take stock of what your position is and recalculate your destinations.
CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)
This New Moon takes place in your 6th house of everyday work and health. For some of you the emphasis will be on both subjects, and for others, one will predominate. Challenges have unexpectedly showed up that require patience and understanding when it comes to work and/or health. How this will affect your finances is another aspect that seems a little unclear. Neptune has gone retrograde adding a need to rethink certain areas of concern. Mercury is retrograde adding misunderstandings to the pot. Mix all ingredients well and bake for six weeks.
AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)
This New Moon takes place in your 5th house of children and creativity. You may have noticed that communications may have lagged in dealing with these subjects or you may have noticed that some unexpected event has triggered a delay in what you were expecting. Mercury is retrograde asking us to reread the fine print of our lives for the last two weeks. This will cause some delays but, ultimately, you will put the time to good use. Neptune retrograde in your 1st house is causing you to rethink your decisions and confirm your current path. Don’t try to do it now. Wait a few weeks and see what the cosmos does.
PISCES-(February 20-March 20)
This New Moon takes place in your 4th house of home and core issues. Gemini in this position gives lots of leeway to you. Your concerns may be internal but will also surface and manifest in your life, especially in your home. Mercury goes retrograde in your 4th house and communications are a problem. Neptune in your 12th house has been gracious enough to give you the ability to see deeper than ever before and open the doors of spirituality very wide. Pay attention to your intuition and you will find the answers to your long held questions.
