EP 117: Full Moon in Gemini + Venus Retrograde

This week kicked off with a shift in energy as Mercury entered Capricorn, where it likes to plot and plan the next steps. And Mars moved into Sagittarius where he’s a little restless and eager to click “Book Now” on a one-way flight to, well, anywhere! Together they help you take calculated risks.

You definitely need to do some calculations first, like adding up how much you have in your savings account because Venus will retrograde in Capricorn on Sunday. In fact, that is the big news this week, and this month, as she is stuck in a conjunction with Pluto that is putting quite a damper on this festive season.

As Venus dives into the depths of the underworld with Pluto you’re getting a masterclass in what matters to you, as well as who matters to you. With these two planets in serious, long-term committed Capricorn you might realize it’s time to leave a relationship, or double down on one. And that goes for romantic partners, business associates, and even yourself!

Remember, your primary relationship is with yourself, how have you been treating you lately? For some of us, this Venus retrograde will be about re-committing to the face staring back in the mirror.

On Saturday the last Full Moon of 2021 arrives in Gemini and helps us say goodbye to eclipse season. It also brings you one final opportunity to forgive someone or release something that has been on your mind since the North Node entered Gemini in Spring 2020.

The highest vibration of the Gemini archetype is to be able to see the situation from all sides. A highly evolved Gemini will be able to see the value in every person’s perspective.

So how about this Full Moon you try on that unbiased Gemini mindset and try to see that person (yeah THAT one) with a fresh perspective? Then write a note to that someone asking for forgiveness. Gemini always invites us to have a conversation.

Now you don’t have to give them the note, you can burn it (safely), but it will still resonate through the ethers, and hopefully lighten your emotional load going into 2022.
