The solar month of Sun in Gemini starts May 20 and brings us one of the most active times of this calendar year – 20% more aspects than a typical month. Most of the activity is from Gemini’s ruler Mercury, and both planetary squares (tension) and trines (ease) dominate the aspects.

In addition, two planets – Jupiter and Uranus – change directions, while Saturn makes stressful aspects to both Uranus and Pluto. And, Neptune just turned retrograde May 19. So if you sometimes wonder whether you are coming or going, join the crowd.

In true Mercury/Gemini energy, this month can bring thoughts of chaos, detail overload and a desire to just get one of those listed “things to do” completed! Remember, the process of evolution is eternal, it never ends. Enjoy the process.

The Evolutionary Astrology mantra for Sun in Gemini is: I gather information with intuitive searching. When Gemini takes in too much information (which it loves to do), implosion occurs and we can just loose everything. After the implosion, whatever is of essence makes itself known. Our left-brain tries to logically put all the pieces together and must learn that the whole is greater than the parts that make it up.

We need Gemini’s ability figure out the details. Yet Gemini must learn from its zodiac polarity Sagittarius, that understanding the larger picture helps us actually make sense of, and understand, those endless pieces of the puzzle.

Gemini naturally follows Taurus and helps us move again, taking our evolving self-reliance out into the world to explore what’s new; or, take another look at something from a different point of view. Saturn’s interactions with Uranus and Pluto are not the most pleasant this month, so Gemini’s ability to try out another attitude can actually be quite helpful.

Mercury starts out the solar month by making a waxing square to Neptune retrograde on May 22 at 17/18 degrees Taurus-Aquarius. We are still at the spot where Neptune stopped to change direction and begin its annual review cycle. There is a need to understand the world and our role in it on the deepest level possible. Illusions are being exposed right now.

At the same time there is a desire to be secure, so Mercury and Neptune may have a bit of words here about right/wrong, go/stop, truth/lies, etc. How do we detach from everything going on around us? How do we move forward when we are insecure? By finding a deeper level of inward security, knowing that the outer world ebbs and flows.

Venus makes a waxing square to Mars the same day, May 22, at 15/16 degrees Gemini-Pisces. Neptune’s need to understand things on the deepest levels will also pertain to personal relationships as well. Venus is asking Mars to step in to new relating patterns together.

No more Mars in Pisces projecting onto our partners and making them responsible for our own unconscious actions. Point it out Venus in Gemini. These two waxing squares on May 22 force us to let go of old beliefs and patterns and grow, especially in how we look at our relationships, including our relationship with our resources. Where is this happening for you?

The next day, May 23, brings the Full Moon of Sagittarius at 2/3 degrees Gemini-Sag. This is the Full Moon of deeper understandings and intuition. Full Moons are time periods to honor our emotional bodies. As all the details swirl around in your head, what is the bottom line in your emotional world? Can you quiet down and listen to the answers filtering up to the surface?

At the beginning of this Neptune retrograde cycle, it is time to let go of old beliefs and allow new ones to come in. This Full Moon can expose where your beliefs are the most vulnerable. Take this solar month and question those beliefs, look for areas to evolve how you understand the world.

As one of the mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces), Gemini does bring opportunity to return to what is known as natural spiritual laws and principles. (The mutable signs relate to what is natural through Sag.) Let this Full Moon expose your next level of natural laws, versus human-made conditioning.

May 23 also brings Saturn making the third and final waning inconjunct to Pluto retro at 23/24 degrees Cancer-Sagittarius. The first two waning inconjuncts were July 31, 2004 and January 19, 2005.

The waning inconjunct is known as a Scorpio aspect. Instead of the inner compromises of the waxing inconjunct (Virgo aspect), waning inconjuncts bring outer compromises or what we know as the power struggles. For the last year Pluto in Sag has been forcing Saturn in Cancer to adjust its definitions of what constitutes security.

Collectively we have watched traditional human-made religions be quite judgmental about what constitutes marriage and family, some of the foundations of security. We have watched the current U.S. administration use fear to control and take away basic human rights. The outer power struggles have been intense in an effort to control things and feel emotionally safe.

The reality is that these collective actions are actually making us less safe. Natural spiritual principles teach us that real security comes from within, a direct relationship with Source from the inside out. As we see God/Goddess within us and then realize it is in everyone as well, Saturn in Cancer creates an inner sense of family that honors and includes all as family.

Human-made religions are based upon excluding others who are different, each religion having righteous beliefs that they are right, others are wrong. Pluto in Sagittarius energy works on Saturn in Cancer to conform or be excluded. This Saturn-Pluto waning inconjunct has been a major energy reflecting back insecurities all over the world, and the pressure to conform.

Personally we have each had opportunities to quest for beliefs that reflect natural spiritual principles (always found in nature itself), and then adjust our emotional world to those deeper and deeper understandings. As we strive to do this, we can come to realize that we really do create what we put energy towards. This Saturn-Pluto waning inconjunct is an opportunity to give energy to what we wish to see in the world, regardless of how separating forces try to scare us and control us.

Be in the world what you wish to see in the world.

Venus makes a waxing trine to Neptune retro on May 24 at 17/18 degrees Gemini-Aquarius. We can tune in to deep unconditional love from Source, starting with self-love, and then really share it with others in unattached ways. Or, we can perpetuate our own version of what love should be like in order to get what we want from others. What is your choice? Manipulating others for outer love, or finding what you desire from within and then receiving it from everywhere?

Try for inner conversations with God/Goddess here and sincerely ask for absolute truths, and your own personal illusions in love to be revealed.

Mercury makes a waning sextile to Saturn on May 25 at 23/24 degrees Taurus-Cancer. One-by-one as the inner planets pass through Taurus, they make this closing aspect to Saturn in Cancer. The lesson is, again, getting to that next level of self-reliance so that we are Ok regardless of what is happening around us.

Inner security always comes before outer security no matter how much money or possessions or relationship scenarios we may surround ourselves with. What stubborn attitudes toward your family can you release? You chose them for a reason, how can your own loved ones help you learn self-reliance?

Watch a tendency to hold on to resources too tightly. See them as the tools that return you to Source, and work to naturally release your outer needs.

A couple days later, on May 28, Mercury enters Gemini for a quick two-week journey. Mercury loves the sign it rules – it gets to be all over the place. Expect things to liven up socially for the next few weeks with Sun, Venus and Mercury in Gemini; time for those conversations about our Mercury in Taurus ponderings.

Allow yourself, and others, the freedom to change your minds. Gemini’s lesson, and therefore teaching, is flexibility. That can help greatly in today’s rapidly changing world. Whenever you feel one of those Saturn-Pluto limitations, try looking at the issue from a different perspective.

What we think (energize) we create. So if you do not like your manifestations, change your thoughts. Mercury in Gemini is great for that. Every time you come back to what you do not want, change your thoughts to what you do want. As many times as it takes until you can easily focus on where you are going. Utilize this Gemini energy to change your directions.

Venus makes an opposition to Pluto on May 29 at 23/24 degrees Gemini-Sagittarius. These two are always working on self-reliance as well. Pluto deeply senses what makes us feel insecure and opposing Venus either gets sucked in, or figures out what to do about it.

These are the same signs/archetypes as the Full Moon so the emotional triggers for deeper understandings may happen here as well. Remember Gemini-Sag can help Venus-Pluto lighten up and change. Can we ever be secure enough when we look for it outside?

Pluto in Sag is slowly yet surely exposing our lies, where is Venus realizing this for you? Can you take your next step in self-reliance, or are you making rationalizations and excuses? Can you speak up where necessary? Can you realize the desires you cling to for security? Remember that attempting to control others only brings that energy back to you.

The Sun makes a waning trine to Jupiter retrograde on May 30 at 8/9 degrees Gemini-Libra. Jupiter is slowing down, getting ready to turn stationary direct on June 5, and grasp new understandings of relationships. The Sun is bringing some helpful insights and possibilities.

Make the effort to change your relationship patterning as your own new revelations are coming through. Be as honest as you can with others. It is too easy here to only say what another wants to hear, and then more karma will just be carried forward.

How is Jupiter in Libra changing your beliefs about relationships? Who are your real friends? Take some time for real honest conversations with those who are close to you. Take your relationships to the next level of intimacy from the bottom line of honesty. This can create some real rewards in your social world.

Then the Sun makes a waxing square to Uranus on May 31 at 10/11 degrees Gemini-Pisces. Break out of those old illusions that just make you feel unhappy. Try looking at life differently. Glimpses of connection to Source can happen here, can you hold it and expand upon it?

Uranus will go stationary retrograde in a few weeks so watch for any outbursts of anger and frustrations rising to the surface. It is an outward sign of where and how you have given your power away, although it may not look that way on the surface. We are each responsible for everything we create in our lives, consciously and unconsciously. As Uranus transits through Pisces, we will have major moments “out of the blue” where we become aware of just how much we unconsciously create victimization.

This could be one of those times when Sun in Gemini brings the great ah haaa. Take whatever steps necessary to become completely responsible for yourself and your world.

Mercury then makes a waning trine to Jupiter on June 1 at 8/9 degrees Gemini-Libra, a few days after the Sun does, continued insights into our relationships with the world. The waning trine can be a reward aspect, such as the romantic dinner. Make an effort to communicate about those relationship ideals that mean so much to you. Make an effort to actually hear what others are saying to you.

These two planets get along pretty good and this can be a very harmonious aspect, so plan for some real communication opportunities. Left-brain can actually receive all those intuitive right-brain insights about any relating situation. Just watch out for lies and games, trust your intuition in that area. This can also be the “snake oil” sales opportunity.

Trine aspects will just create more of the same, “good” and “bad”, so the actual manifestations just show you where you are. If you do not like your situation, this is easy energy to change things. A mantra for trines is “make the effort.” It is also too easy to just resist growth opportunities.

Then Mercury makes a waxing square to Uranus as well on June 2 at 10/11 degrees Gemini-Pisces. Mercury is getting closer and closer to the Sun, this time direct. And this time in Gemini so mental energy is strong right now. Any Piscean deceptions or games can be revealed.

Uranus can continue to release deep unconscious patterning into the light of day. Mercury in Gemini can recognize those patterns and choose a different path. Go for it. Those little mental messages here can have big impacts on your life if you pay attention. Any “unconscious” games you are playing with yourself or others can be exposed.

Mars makes a waxing square to Pluto retrograde on June 2 at 23/24 degrees Pisces-Sagittarius. This is a crisis point in acting upon those new desires bubbling up from the depths of our soul. Pluto represents the soul itself and all its unconscious desires, which are made conscious via Mars. This is why Mars is always in a state of becoming, and wanting to go after the next thing, the next desire, usually a separating (from Source) desire.

The waxing square lets us know that there is some struggle going on between desires of the past and new evolving desires we want to act upon. So this is a crisis point in letting go of the old as we move into the new. Pisces-Sag lets us know that there are beliefs and judgments involved with these new desires.

We may be realizing how much we really want something and yet we have been taught that what we desire is taboo or selfish. With Pisces-Sag we may also believe that we must suffer to receive that which we do desire. Says who?

So here is the crisis: do I go after what I want or not? Only you can make that choice. You can make that decision based upon whether or not your desire will hurt or manipulate another. You can discern what your own belief system thinks about that desire, versus what you have been conditioned to believe and think. You can take your power back and decide if your choice is a healthy desire for you on your path Home, regardless of how any one else may be choosing to get there.

The superior conjunction of Mercury to the Sun occurs June 3 at 12/13 degrees Gemini. For every time Mercury retrogrades back over the Sun, it also catches up with, and then moves ahead of, the Sun again. This is like a time period for answers to the last Mercury retrograde [which was in Aries (1 – 15 degrees) March 19 – April 12].

What were you trying to start two-three months ago that can now go forward, and quite possibly in multiple ways? Inwardly/outwardly listen as Sun-Mercury has a lot to say. Ideas can spark all Gemini solar month, yet this is a time to put the details together and make a fresh start.

Venus enters Cancer on June 3 as well for a three-plus week journey. Venus will be leading the inner planets for the rest of the calendar year (except for 12 days in late June/early July when Mercury pulls ahead). So Venus is setting the tone this year. Meeting our own essential needs is like the carrot dangling in front of us.

As Venus moves into Cancer, our emotional needs and desires come to the surface again. The Sun still wants to play and talk the night away. Venus wants security, and joins Saturn in its final days of Cancer to emphasize how important it is to feel safe.

So these new ideas of yours that Sun and Mercury are all excited about must pass the Venus test – it must still feel good and not take things too far out on a limb. Venus will not agree to it. Home, family and emotional needs are more important now. So it may be best to include those close to you in your new ventures.

Mars makes a waning trine to Saturn on June 4 at 24/25 degrees Pisces-Cancer. Mars also has something to say about emotional needs and desires getting met through this solar air month. These two planets like to be in control, in this case emotional control.

They can also try to control others through emotional means. Again, any aspect can manifest “good” or “bad” according to what we have been energizing. Some may see this aspect bring quite wonderful family reunions. Some may find emotional upsets with others. Trines just bring forth whatever is already there.

We may also find governmental authorities using fear tactics to scare and control the public. Mars in Pisces can be quite good at deception to get it desires met, and become quite angry when it doesn’t get its way. As Saturn in Cancer reaches the end of its cycle there will be a tying up of loose ends, especially through emotional means of fear.

All through Mars in Pisces (April 30 – June 11) watch where you have anger. It can point to those areas of life where you have given your power away outside of yourself. How can you make an effort to take your power back?

Jupter turns stationary direct on June 5 at 8/9 degrees Libra. Jupiter has spent the last four months (since February 1) moving backwards through Libra, fine-tuning those relationship beliefs. This can be a time for resolution to the issues with our intimate friends and partners. We now have a deeper knowledge and understanding of what we would like to take place in the arena of relationships.

It will be another 12 years before Jupiter does this retrograde cycle in Libra again. So ponder back to the last time Jupiter was in Libra - October 10, 1992 to November 11, 1993. What relationship lessons did you learn then? How can you apply those lessons today?

Somehow there is equality of giving and receiving lessons. Which end do you tend to be on – the giver or the taker? What steps can you take toward better equality in all your relationships?

There are also lessons in learning to hear what another is really saying. How can you do this? Do those who are in your life listen to you?

Jupiter will now finish up its passage through Libra until October 25. The next 4-5 months are a time period to make progress in your relationships, including your relationship with yourself and God/Goddess. Our human relationships just mirror our relationship with Source. What would you like to change? Can you self-supply whatever you would like to receive from another? Then the giving can be done freely with no attachment to the gift. And we can easily say no to unhealthy giving and/or manipulating.

Mercury makes a waxing trine to Neptune retrograde on June 5 at 17/18 degrees Gemini-Aquarius. The energy leans toward helping (sometimes) foggy Neptune gain clarity and self-objectivity. Mercury-Neptune can be conversations with God/Goddess and/or crazy voices in our head. If you feel it is the latter, find the conversations with those you trust to give you honest feedback – and be willing to really listen.

Source can come through you with great creative ideas, you can even be manifesting them here. Just Neptune in Aquarius ask, ask, ask for objectivity to all these possibilities. If you want to energize your creative ideas, this is a nice time to really make an effort in those directions.

The New Moon of Gemini is June 6 at 16/17 degrees, the annual time period to look at life from a fresh point of view, what is that for you? Some of Gemini’s lessons are teaching the relativity of truth. For instance, there are many paths toward God/Goddess, and we will each take the journey that is best for us. Gemini allows us to take a different way if we want, and to not judge others quite so harshly for taking the best path they can find.

With its squares to Virgo and Pisces, and its opposition to Sagittarius, Gemini can help us out of the thousands of years of patriarchal conditioning - that human-made conditioning that has been used to dominate and control almost all living beings on the planet.

What emotional new beginnings is Sun-Moon in Gemini sparking for you?

Mercury makes an opposition to Pluto retrograde on June 7 at 23/24 degrees Gemini-Sagittarius. More energy yet to realize our conditioning to blindly accept outside sources of power as knowing what is best for each of us. Who can ever give you your answers better than yourself? The question is – can you be quiet enough to really hear what your soul knows as the truth for you? As absolute truth?

Mercury-Pluto can be fighting within/without about who knows best, who is telling the truth and who is lying. Our souls may wish to cling to a lie in order to feel secure; yet mentally we know better. Can you face your own soul’s exposures to the games and desires you cling to? Can you choose a different path?

The Sun makes a waxing trine to Neptune retro on June 7/8 at 17/18 degrees Gemini-Aquarius. Now following Mercury and Venus, the Sun brings the light of day to the inner planets’ connections to the rest of the solar system. Sun in Gemini will continue with the dialogue Mercury recently had with Neptune a few days ago.

Creative inspiration, and manifestation, is the highest symbolism of Sun-Neptune. Delusions of grandeur are the opposite. Ask for objectivity in your creative ideas and ventures. Then ask for the creative sparks in moving those ideas forward. This is a time to be in your blossoming mode as Venus and Mercury paved the way for you with Neptune’s inspiration.

Mercury makes a waxing square to Mars on June 10 at 29/30 degrees Gemini-Pisces. Here is where we can question these desires of ours, are they really for our highest and best good? Mars in Pisces can become conscious of all those desires we have not yet accomplished (especially at 29 degrees), and try to go after all of them. Mercury is here to fine-tune and throw out the old desires we keep trying to recycle.

Watch for tendencies to argue here. Ask for truth to be revealed. Why are you so invested in doing things your way? Is there a compromise that helps everyone?

Let go of your old desires here so that you can really go forward with new desires as Mars enters Aries tomorrow.

Venus makes a waning square to Jupiter on June 10 at 8/9 degrees Cancer-Libra. Our emotional needs in relationships undergo review. Jupiter is just starting to go forward in Libra again, and Venus is now asked to help let go of old emotional patterning, especially any emotional co-dependencies.

We can agree to Libran fairness, can we really let go of the unequal giving and receiving and hold the energy of equality? If you cannot, or choose not to, eruptions in your relationships may occur. Just remember, no one will satisfy your needs like yourself. It really is the only way, and it sure helps your relating to others go a lot easier.

Mercury enters Cancer on June 11 for another short two-week passage. Now Mercury applies its mental curiosity to the emerging emotions we are noticing. Our mental lightness turns watery here. Our minds can become consumed with analyzing our emotions.

This can be good if we inwardly ask how we can make ourselves feel better. Mercury in Cancer can be quite moody when it gets triggered, and in our westernized society project the responsibility on to another. You are responsible for all your emotions, and you are the one to change what you do not like.

Can you mentally accept this as natural law? If so, you will open up the doors to find answers and emotional insights. May you be successful.

Mars enters Aries on June11 for the next six-plus weeks. Finally! Mars gets to transit its own sign of rulership once every two years. There is a big push to initiate all kinds of new desires. We even desire all the freedom we want to pursue these new impulses. Just know that your partner and friends will want the same freedom.

With Sun in Gemini, Mars cannot move fast enough. Give yourself the freedom to start things, try something new, and then let it go. The essence of Mars and Aries is initiation. It does not necessarily mean following through, only if it feels right to do so.

The classic is five new desires we initiate, which leads to three we expand upon, which leads to one or two we may actually follow through on and achieve or finish. Sometimes the lesson is learned in the initiation of a desire without needing to manifest it.

As you initiate the new in your life, see what feedback Jupiter in Libra gives you. That is what helps you figure out which desires to go after and which ones you can let go of. This will become even clearer when Mars opposes Jupiter on June 25 at 9/10 degrees Aries-Libra.

Saturn makes its third and final waxing sesquiquadrate to Uranus on June 11 at 25/26 degrees Cancer – 10/11 degrees Pisces (three days before Uranus turns retrograde). The first two aspects were August 7, 2004 and February 17, 2005. These two planets are not really the best of friends. Saturn wants control and Uranus is very willing to show Saturn it doesn’t have it.

Saturn relates to the individuated consciousness and Uranus relates to the individuated unconsciousness. Saturn wants to stuff things below the surface and Uranus throws it right back up into Saturn’s face. Back and forth they go. Uranus does get the last word. Individuate is what we will do.

The waxing sesquiquadrate aspect (135 degrees) signifies the passage from the First Quarter phase to the Gibbous phase. This is the point at which an individual begins to take others into consideration. Oooohhh, Saturn just doesn’t like this feeling of not being in charge.

For the last year we have had to face “others” who seem to be in control of our world. We have watched this with traditional human-made religions become even more fanatic in their attempts to control the political scene in the U.S. We have watched fundamentalist religions in other countries do the same.

Nothing is more threatening than change. Uranus in Pisces can signify patriarchal religions dying out, losing the faithful and all the lies of these institutions being exposed. Saturn in Cancer attempts to emotionally control through fear of change. Yet change, evolution, is natural law and cannot be stopped.

How is this fear of change happening in your life? What emotional fears have you been working through? Uranus in Pisces can bring the desire for escape, and it can also direct messages from, and communications with, God/Goddess. It can help us open up to understand natural spiritual laws and principles instead of the limitations of human-made religions.

This very aspect that brings so much fear to those who see power lying outside of themselves, can bring peace when we understand that real power lies inside of us. The path to know God/Goddess is an inner one. No one can take that away from you.

So do not stuff and ignore the changes taking place in the world today. It is making things less safe for all humans everywhere. Face that reality and realize you still have all the choice in the world to energize a different choice for the world and yourself.

Uranus in Pisces and Neptune in Aquarius are methodically teaching us year after year that what we choose to energize we create. The greatest fear the separating forces (what we commonly know as evil) have is that we will realize this and take our power back. See your fears for what they are: fear itself to be understood and then utilized to create your world differently.

The lesson of the Gibbous phase, which the waxing sequiquadrate initiates, teaches us that we are more successful, and safer, when we find ways to get along with others and share the planet together.

Venus makes a waxing trine to Uranus on June 12 at 10/11 degrees Cancer-Pisces. For those who have been facing their fears of being loved and learning how to self-love, this is a great aspect. This is how I can love myself better! Go for it! The opposite is trying to figure out how to manipulate ways for someone else to love us and that takes so much more work.

What messages about love are coming through here? Can you find a way to love yourself? Such freedom is ours when we figure that one out!

The Sun opposes Pluto retrograde on June 13 at 23/24 degrees Gemini-Sagittarius. Now the Sun gets involved in understanding deeper levels of truth about our desire nature. And this could happen through conversations and/or arguments with others that expose things.

As Pluto in Sag, now retro, has been helping us realize deeper understandings about the world, our beliefs and the deep desires within our souls, Sun in Gemini can show us how to just be ourselves. No games to impress or be accepted. This is just who I am and what I desire.

Can you accept the same about those who are in your life? Can you allow them the freedom to take the path they want? Can you let go of the power struggles of controlling others and just find a deeper power within yourself?

The ending of this solar month can bring us those moments of clarity, and hopefully, self-acceptance to the uniqueness that is within our soul. As we search to align ourselves with the deepest level of truth we can understand, then we can express that in our own individualistic ways. We can be an example of truth in the world. May you be successful.

Uranus turns stationary retrograde on June 14 at 10/11 degrees Pisces. Speaking of truth, Uranus turning retrograde is always about exposing what needs to be brought up into consciousness and de-conditioned. That usually means some lie we have bought into about our soul and/or about the world we live in.

Uranus will be retrograde until it turns direct on November 15 at 6/7 degrees Pisces, five months of becoming conscious about where we wish to escape reality. As the world reaches for another level of control to compensate for the ending of the Piscean Age and its dissolving of what no longer works, we attempt to do the same individually. We can also choose to escape through addictions to just about anything – physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

Retro Uranus in Pisces will continue to expose these escape attempts. At the time it turns retrograde (now) it can really lightning bolt this into our minds. Can you face your tendencies to just check out? Can you learn to be in your body and face the emotional uncertainty around you, in you?

Unconditionally love yourself right now. Support yourself by knowing you are doing the best you can do in the moment, and you will do the same in the next moment and the next moment. No judgments when you temporarily escape. The opposite of Pisces is Virgo and in today’s patriarchal conditioning, Virgo has become way too judgmental.

Perfection does not exist here. It is a process we are each in the midst of attaining. The way to reach our next step of self-improvement is to just keep trying however many attempts it takes, however many lifetimes it takes, until we are successful. As your escape valves are exposed to you, pick yourself up and try your reality lesson again. And again. And again.

Self-love and unconditional self-acceptance is the best thing you can do here as Uranus goes retro in Pisces. We find our way out of our messes through self-love not self-judgment. Bless the exposure of your conditionings and addictions. Becoming conscious that they even exist is a big first step in healing them.

Open up to some direct conversations with God/Goddess here. It is an inward spiritual journey to Source, one-on-one between you and You-Know-Who, and traditional religions are so afraid of you figuring that one out. How can they control you anymore when you realize that truth?

Mercury makes a waning square to Jupiter on June 15 at 9/10 degrees Cancer-Libra. Mercury has been quite active during Sun in Gemini, and it still has a few more details to figure out. In a waning square to Jupiter (right-brain), left-brain Mercury must learn to trust intuitive Jupiter.

What old relationship beliefs must Mercury stop clinging to and supporting? What feels like the right path emotionally? Mercury in Cancer has the lesson of trusting the emotional world. That in itself can create the crisis in consciousness or beliefs that waning squares represent.

Quiet your mind to go with what feels right from the gut, not the head.

Finally Mercury makes a waxing trine to Uranus retro on June 16 at 10/11 degrees Cancer-Pisces. This can seem like more of the same. The end of this mental solar month leads the way into an emotional solar month (Sun in Cancer).

Mercury has significant relationships with Jupiter and Uranus. They can relate very well together on the mental planes. Now they are asked to get in touch with the emotional world. As Uranus turning retro in Pisces has been throwing our emotions up into our face, Mercury gets to feel its way through the emotional chaos and upsets.

Mercury in Cancer can get intuitive and pinpoint just what those particular emotions mean and what triggers them. Together Mercury-Uranus can bring deep ah ha’s about our emotions. This can be quite helpful over the next month.

Allow your emotions the freedom to express. It does not mean you have to act upon those emotions. Just allow them to be and then make the effort to understand whatever your emotions signify for you. You have them for a reason.

See if your bubbling emotions can help you reach a better state of unconditional self-love. It is a major key to your happiness. May you be successful.

May God/Goddess bless you through Sun in Gemini!
