Beware: the last New Moon of spring is going to be messy. To prepare for this explosive lunation, try to rest and relax beforehand because we’ll need all of our mental devices unpacked and ready to rumble. June 14th’s New Moon in Gemini will make say erratic sentiments that aren’t properly thought through. All the more reason to ask for edits from a trusted pal before sending a text or email that will shake up our lives.
At this moment, we are longing to find new ways to express ourselves. Instead of appealing to others in the usual ways, we will take a non-conformist approach to expressing our innermost sentiments. This will require us to be completely direct and honest, which contrasts with Gemini’s trickster nature; however, once we open up, it will be easy for us to discuss matters freely. The caveat is that Mercury retrograde’s pre-shadow begins the day before the lunation, so it’s important to have patience and empathy not just for ourselves, but for others who are sharing their emotions and concerns with us.
The silver lining is that our curiosities will be piqued, since the Mercurial nature of Gemini always asks us to seek understanding; nonetheless, we will be able to find meaning and offer insight into tense moments when they arise because we want to advance our discernment of ourselves and others. As long as we are gentle in how we express ourselves and talk to ourselves, we can find a place of peace and love. The goal is to stay in our lanes when we are placed in situations and focus on how we can improve our lives.
The presence of Black Moon Lilith (the mathematical space that denotes the farthest point that the moon is from Earth) in Sagittarius is going to push us to stand up for ourselves when others start in with us. It’s not that we don’t want to have it out, but the circumstances will call for a reckoning of sorts to ensure that people respect our boundaries. Black Moon Lilith evokes repressed sentiments, particularly regarding injustices. The temptation to grandstand for those we care about is extreme; however, we shouldn’t fight other people’s battles when they aren’t appreciative of our efforts or dedicated to the cause. Pull back the energy and assert your power in matters that relate to us personally.
The good news is that we aren’t going to cower before anyone who aims to dominate us. Being submissive and apologizing, even if we’re right, doesn’t help prove a point or let people know we are a doormat. We must defend ourselves. The warning here is not to take matters to the limit; knowing when to stop is vital. We may be unable to find the proper words, due to Mercury being in the pre-shadow zone, allowing us to remove ourselves when the theatrics get too hot.
The “spiritual warrior” Eris, which is in Aries, adds a flair of impulsivity and combustibility. Checking ourselves to ensure we don’t go off the deep end is pivotal. When in doubt, take a step back and ask a friend or family member for advice. Even if we don’t like what they convey, we might be swayed by their opinions once we process the guidance and consider the best way to proceed. Confronting those who are not treating us well can be done concisely and directly, without contradiction. Eris is going to come in with sharp and quick wit to make a point, then drop it like it’s hot and move on.
On the same day, Mercury in Cancer shares a minor frustration with Uranus in Gemini. The lesson is to break free from unhealthy, toxic patterns and behaviors that hold us back. To become the best version of ourselves, we must prove our strength and authority. We are no longer sitting in the backseat or being a passenger princess — we are steering the wheel.
