The Stable and Slow Energy of the Earth Becomes Mutable
Get Ready for the Geminian Season that Kicks Off with a Bang!
An Energetic Shift Ahead
If in the past months we’ve felt mental confusion due to Mercury retrograde, starting this week, our minds will kick into high gear. So keep your eyes wide open and your mind alert!
The Sun’s Entrance into Gemini
Yesterday, the Sun entered Gemini, marking the beginning of the Geminian season. This is a mutable, dynamic, joyful, and fun energy. When we talk about Gemini, we’re talking about communication, sociability, versatility, curiosity, knowledge-seeking, study, and even short trips.
This will be a period where our minds will be super active, flexible, and sharpened. It’s the perfect time to generate new contacts, explore new opportunities, chat, negotiate, network, and share ideas with people who inspire us and help us expand our knowledge.
Venus’ Entrance into Gemini
As I mentioned, the Geminian season is starting with full force, as not only the Sun but also Venus is entering Gemini, donning the Geminian attire and activating the Gemini area of our birth charts.
Venus in Gemini can bring important lessons related to loving communication, harmony in relationships, appreciation of diversity, and valuing versatility, both in love and in life in general.
During this period, it’s likely that we will learn to express our affection and emotions more openly and communicatively, to enjoy our relationships by adding dynamism and variety, and to appreciate the beauty found in the diversity of experiences and connections.
In the coming weeks, we’ll also experience the Venus Star Point, which happens when Venus is in conjunction with the Sun. This moment will amplify these teachings and bring us to a deeper understanding of how we can cultivate more authentic, balanced, and enriching love relationships. This influence will encourage us to explore new ways of expressing love, value affectionate communication, and celebrate the diversity in our interpersonal interactions.
Jupiter’s Entrance into Gemini
And now comes the third big entrance: Jupiter is also entering Gemini this week. Still doubting that our minds will explode with ideas, thoughts, conversations, and information? The planet of expansion, alongside our brilliance-consciousness and desire, is here to activate all the potential of this energy.
Jupiter in Gemini is generally associated with expanding the mind, continuous learning, effective communication, and the relentless pursuit of knowledge. During this transit, intellectual curiosity is encouraged, the exploration of new ideas, and openness to different perspectives.
Jupiter in Gemini can push us to expand our mental horizons, study, travel, communicate more openly, and be more flexible in our thinking. This boost will be so strong that it will last for an entire year, and next week, Jupiter will also have a conversation with Pluto, adding more dynamism and transformation.
The Other Side of Gemini
As I always say, we live in a dual world, and everything has its opposite side. Gemini is no exception. While this energy is joyful, fun, and fresh, bringing new opportunities, new contacts, and lighter relationships, it also carries certain challenges that we need to be mindful of, as this energy will intensify.
Superficiality
Due to Gemini’s versatile and curious nature, there’s a risk of staying on the surface of things, without delving deeply into what really matters. To illustrate, Gemini is the person who reads all the headlines of a newspaper but never stops to read the full article. What matters to Gemini is knowing a little about everything…
In love relationships, Gemini can be superficial, seeking variety and constant stimulation without emotionally diving deep.
Inconsistency and Lack of Focus
Gemini enjoys variety and frequent shifts in interest, which can make it difficult to maintain consistency and focus in important areas of life. Does this sound familiar? Starting something and before finishing it, already thinking about something else? Guilty as charged! My Moon is in Gemini, and I can tell you I have about seven courses and eight books started without finishing them (not counting digital books—I've lost track there!).
Additionally, Venus in Gemini can lead to a lack of commitment in relationships, seeking novelty and excitement rather than emotional stability.
Difficulty in Making Decisions
Gemini’s duality can lead to indecision when facing important choices, as it sees multiple perspectives and options. This mutable energy finds it difficult to choose just one thing, as it prefers to grab as many opportunities as possible.
With Venus transiting through Gemini, this duality may lead to indecision in matters of love, making it hard to make important romantic decisions.
Dispersed Communication
During this period, communication may become fragmented, making it hard to effectively convey ideas. Imagine a networking event: Gemini hops from group to group, chatting but without getting into details, introducing people, and before the conversation gets deep, moving on to another group.
This happens because Gemini is an air sign that, in its lower expression, tends to disconnect from the heart and stay only in the head. It’s uncomfortable for Gemini to have deep conversations, discuss sensitive topics, or be vulnerable, qualities that are typical of water signs.
Finally, even though Gemini is communicative, it can also be prone to ambiguity, manipulation, or lack of commitment in interpersonal communication. It will be interesting to observe these patterns in our lives.
The Secret is Integration
It’s important to be aware of these challenges and work on balancing Venus’ energy in Gemini to cultivate healthy and meaningful relationships. It’s also crucial to find a balance between mental expansion and concentration, avoiding excessive dispersion, and ensuring we absorb and apply what we learn in a meaningful way.
Recommendations for This Season
To make the most of the Geminian season, here are a few recommendations:
Cultivate healthy communication: Take advantage of Gemini’s communicative energy to express your thoughts and feelings clearly in your relationships. Don’t be afraid to be vulnerable; the key is to integrate the mind and the heart.
Explore versatility: Allow yourself to explore different interests, activities, and perspectives during this season, embracing the diversity that life offers.
Learn something new: If you’ve always wanted to study something, now is the time! Use this period to acquire new knowledge or skills that will enrich your life.
Keep an open mind: Be receptive to others’ ideas and opinions, practicing empathy in your interactions. Avoid becoming fanatical about your own beliefs or trying to convince everyone that your truth is the only one.
Find balance: Look for a balance between exploration and stability, novelty and consistency, to maintain harmony in your relationships and activities.
I hope these suggestions guide you through this season of Gemini, helping you take full advantage of the opportunities and lessons it brings.
