Lunar Transits for 16-18 January 2019
The Moon moves into Gemini and the 11th House of friendship and humanitarian concerns at 5:01 PM PST today, 16 January until Void
Aspects
The strongest aspect is the Moon sextile the Ascendant involving our emotions and intuition. We may be sensitive to emotions during this period, both from self and others. Allow intuition to inform your experiences and interactions, also reinforced by the Moon trine the South Node. A more difficult aspect involves an opposition with Ceres that indicates our interactions with women may be challenging during this time. But conjunct Juno, we’re also feeling the need to nurture others and preserve established emotional connections so if that involves a female friend or acquaintance, extra care may be necessary. In trine with the Sun, this is primarily a harmonious period, so reach out to and spend time with others.
Chart Balances
- Modes ~ Initiating Cardinal energies continue to be strong during this period while Fixed energies are in a weakened state which may impact our desire to get things done.
- Elements ~ Air is still in a weakened state and given Gemini’s tendency toward shallowness and a fickle nature, we should pay attention that we don’t become scattered if we’re beginning new projects. Otherwise, Fire (will), Water (emotions), and Earth (physical concerns) are in balance.
- Rays ~ Rays One (Will/Power), Three (Active Intelligence), and Seven (Ceremonial Organization and Magic) dominate today. Assertiveness, strategy, leadership, and organization are favored during this period.
Magickal Workings
Magicks of increase surrounding communication are favored during this lunar period. Additionally, rituals involving spiritual or humanitarian focus can be worked. The 5th Mansion of the Moon is favorable to reinforce workings surrounding health and goodwill as well as those seeking clarity. Candle spells may be useful.
As a Libran, I can talk to a Gemini friend forever. The conversation is stimulating and involved. Gemini energy is fun and full of love and laughter so perhaps over the next two days, take advantage of this time to reconnect with friends and family. It may be just the spark needed to shift us out of the darkness, even temporarily, that so many are experiencing right now.
Until next time…
