Whenever the transiting moon is in Gemini, it places an emphasis on thoughts, intellectual pursuits and communications, but when it's a New Moon, it also serves as a strong reminder that it's our conscious mind that gives birth to our dreams, goals, intentions and ideas.
That's why despite the sign's lighthearted, glib and scattered nature, every Gemini new moon contains seeds that are packed with profound inspiration.
And while this one is no exception, challenging aspects from Neptune and Pluto will make it harder to access its promise.
In terms of Neptune, a tight square to the New Moon not only contributes a lack of clarity, it also adds a sense of discouragement and lethargy. As a result, many of you will find it difficult to make a decision or commit to a plan of action at this time. And even if you are ready, willing and able to move forward, the new moon's quincunx to Pluto suggests the need for some type of adjustment that doesn't make you feel comfortable.
However, that's not the only outcome. You can still reap the benefits of its promise.
While the truth is that some type of adjustment is likely to be necessary, you don't have to submit to Neptune's dreary fear-mongering energy.
All you have to do is outsmart it.
And the way you do it is to consciously tap into the rational mind, which is the essence of this new moon, and focus on the facts rather than Neptune's fiction.
