This new moon is forming a mutable Grand Cross - a very powerful intense aspect where four different polarities are pulling on each-other for power and expression, all at once. This aspect is playing out in every birth chart/life, in some way. These four areas of your life (houses) that have Sag, Gemini, Pisces and Virgo are the areas of life being effected the most by this aspect. If your Rising sign is Sagittarius, Gemini, Pisces or Virgo this will be extra strong and important meaning for you, as this Grand Cross is aligning with your own personal chart cross of the four angles. Also extra powerful if you have sun or moon in one of these signs. But regardless if you have personal energy points in these mutable signs, we all have the full zodiac within.
New moon in Gemini with Venus
- puts the focus on multiple relationships with a lot of mental stimulation around conversations, thoughts & ideas regarding new activity recently unfolding with others. Something of value is wanting to start after a possible change in perspective lately. This could be a relationship or something of material value, or even just thoughts and ideas around starting something new that you personally value right now, but the full understanding of what is starting now won't be available for a couple weeks, at least. There is a lot of confusion too which takes time to become clear.
Communication of all kinds is highlighted so networking, broadcasting, writing, public speaking and transportation type projects are featured and would be a good time to start, at least seeding possibilities for the future in these areas. However, I feel relationships of all kinds are most highlighted now with the exchange of intellectual value, and new beginnings with others, is the main theme of this new moon. There is a lot of information coming in with max mental stimulation adding to some confusion with need to escape anything too harsh in your life. The need to communicate to or think about what you value and love is strong, but what you think and say could have shadow elements as well.
Saturn opposition to Gemini NM
There is some complications with this process unfolding as the Grand Cross reflects. The other polarity has Saturn in Sagittarius, the lord of karma and fate pulling on us applying pressure, doubts, fears and acting as a counter weight to the light hearted playful relationship activity recently, that's full of new possibilities. This force can act as a blocking factor to what wants to manifest, or it can concrete it. Saturn is reflecting a grounding force to what easily could float away thru mind and imagination. There is many choices and possibilities but not all ideas and thoughts are equal, as Saturn's energy will only allow for what's most important, and real. Challenges and obstacles with possible delays is likely. things just are not going to sprout as fast as usual with this new moon. Personal beliefs, faith and opinions could also be an opposing force to the new possibilities arriving now, or even from the authority figures within your life. There could be old obligations and commitments that is opposing the new, or even just self undoing with too much focus on the negative such as inadequacies, fears, doubts, etc. The seeds being planted around now need to have some seriousness and commitment to them once they sprout, these new starts for your life are on the long term, so it has to be done right with integrity & good foundation. This is the Saturn side providing pressure to do what's "right".
Jupiter with North Node in Virgo Square NM & Saturn
The other pulling force is the benefic side where new opportunities have been coming from. (your Virgo area of life). There is a magnification and boost to this side of your life. Every day, real life activity matters are progressing forward but it takes focusing on the details with good practical organization to make real progress. This side of the grand cross is in conflict with the new moon because Gemini has many different things trying to start, and with different people but the Virgo side is more critical wanting to eliminate what's not important and what's not real, narrowing the amount of mental stimulation and information. Jupiter's hard energy alignments with Gemini and GC will cause excess, doing too much too fast. promising more than what might be possible, triggering oppositions and blacks from self or others. This area of your life starts to move forward needing your attention, yet attention is scattered and not focused on the details. Venus square Jupiter/NN has relationship activity in excess as well but is also having karmic effect with long lasting consequences with others, good or bad. This side of your life is a strong force pulling you forward, like it or not. Find your Virgo area of life and move in that direction getting your daily routine in order, along with health routines and real practical everyday life matters, depending on the house that has Virgo - clean up that area of life with new possibilities and move forward even if past comfort zone.
Neptune with South Node in Pisces square new moon and Saturn.
The opposite polarity of Virgo is Pisces where we have the other side of this GC. The South Node there makes Neptune's energy a malefic plus the hard aspects from Neptune to every other planet in this GC only adds to the more negative side of Neptune's energy wanting to manifest. This is about your personal ways in which you self sabotage yourself or by letting life do it for you. Illusions, fantasies, addictions, dishonesty with self and others and any other negative activity that controls your life could be strongly influencing you now. The need to escape pressures is strong, so each person has their own poison they partake in to escape this intense pressure building, whether they realize it or not. What is your escape route? There is so much info and mental stimulation that confusion will be strong, not knowing what should be done, or what you want to do is very possible, leading to escape.
Sometimes, just not being willing to see, face and accept certain things is a form of escapism. Drinking and drugs are common, even food, sex, or whatever. There is just a side that wants to let go and not feel so much pressure or stress. There is so much mental stimulation, and this side from Neptune causes confusion with a need to retreat. If you study your own personal Neptune placement and aspects from birth chart, you'll see that this Grand Cross will activate those challenges for you, which is different for everyone. Chiron also on this side, old wounds can be holding you back as well. All this negative energy in your life is wanting to be healed and released which is also part of the pressure building, to face and accept where you fuck yourself over. But can't be dealt with if you refuse to even see it.
In order to make this side work, you can't repress it, you'll need to find a healthy way to escape sometimes, to release pressures. Giving yourself time to retreat here and there is appropriate and needed. One glass of wine at night or a joint might not be a negative. Tapping into the spiritual world; finding ways to create inspiration; being honest with yourself and others while consciously allowing yourself to fantasize about possibilities, real or not is okay, as long as kept in perspective. Music and other creative escapes is helpful. Compassion, sensitivity and service to others is also great way to turn Neptune's energy positive.
Neptune wants to be included in this new beginning too. Imagination is important, just try not to get lost in the fog or escape from what's real. Secrecy will be strong element of this new moon with private behind the scenes activities that others are not fully aware of, and that might be okay too.
New moon quincunx Pluto - New Moon events lead to intense relationship activity with energy shifts and adjustments necessary while a transformation process & new beginnings starts.
Under all this energy Mercury (ruler of new moon) is direct in Taurus coming out of it's retrograde shadow within a grand earth trine, keeping things somewhat grounded and real leading us forward with what we value the most after recent reflections and contemplation on personal values and needs. The new relationships being seeded now will find much activity and expression come Leo season later this summer, the ones that didn't dissolve, as many things starting now, some won't work out but other seeds may end up being a real gem that you have no ideas about now.
Try and not escape one side of your life for the other. Taking appropriate action on all these different sides of your life pulling on you will help release the feeling of stress and pressure. Let changes happen without fear. Give yourself healthy escape time. Staying adoptable as different things come up will be important. Staying fixed is the worst thing you can do. The universe will make things happen even if you don't. Have patience and expect delays, you won't fully understand all this until in hindsight. Don't push against the confusion or uncertainty.
That's about the gist of it. It's hard to put all this together so do some pondering of your own to see how this is fitting into your current life situation now.
Hope the info was helpful.
Happy new moon.
