Divine Duality: The Full Moon in Gemini
Hello Gentle Seekers!
Welcome to “In the Wilde!” where I discuss all things Mediumship, Astrology, Divinatory and Magickal. I hope you enjoy what you read while finding some fun information while visiting!
On Monday, November 27, 2023 we will be greeted with the vibrant Full Moon in Gemini, which comes handily after a hefty holiday of family for some! Speaking of family, I have a fun tale of divine sibling duality, and how their currents could be exactly what we need to lean into during the upcoming Full Moon and of course, your horoscopes! So turn up our favorite Gemini baddy, Wendy O of the Plasmatics, and read on to see how this single Moon can help you get through the holidays.
Astrologically speaking, Gemini is a mutable air sign ruled by the planet Mercury. Mercury is the planet of communication, swiftness, commerce, and intellect. Gemini is represented by the celestial twins Castor and Pollux, which, in the tapestry of existence, combines divinity, duality, and heavenly and earthly currents.
Transformative energies are felt as the Moon graces our skies in all her different phases. In Astrology, each Full Moon carries unique qualities, and the Full Moon in Gemini holds a special significance, intertwining with the ancient myth of the celestial twins Castor and Pollux. The relationship between the Twins goes beyond the ordinary bonds of brotherhood. Born of the same mother but with different divine fathers, the Twins symbolize the duality of mortal and immortal elements within the human experience. Their connection is characterized by an inseparable unity, a symbiosis beyond blood ties. Castor, born mortal, known for his equestrian skills, and Pollux, born immortal, famed for his pugilistic prowess, complement each other like two halves of a whole. In the face of tragedy, when Castor is fatally wounded, Pollux's selfless choice to share his immortality with his brother seals their fraternal bond. The Twins' relationship is marked by loyalty, sacrifice, and enduring sibling love, which remains a timeless emblem of the profound connections that bind us beyond earthly and divine realms.
Our upcoming illumination allows us to leverage the tools of the quick-witted Gemini as we prepare for the holiday season. Now, some of us have larger families than others, and some of us have no family at all, but it's safe to say whatever the case, we all tend to be pulled in ways that lead to over-extending and over-exhausting ourselves. Travel (Mercury), Family (Third House), endless dialogue (Mercury), using our hands (Gemini) to prepare our homes and food, all this can start to weigh us down. So how can the currents of Gemini and the Twins help?
It is essential to note that the Twins are also associated with adaptability, communication, and duality. We can draw inspiration from these siblings to navigate the complexities of family dynamics.
When dealing with family, communication is critical, right?
This Gemini Moon encourages open and honest dialogue. If you are one to anticipate the intensity of family gatherings, take a moment to reflect on past experiences shared. How did that go for you? Were you able to make it through without the argument or feeling triggered? Perhaps this year, we will focus on engaging in conversations that foster understanding and connection. By sharing thoughts and feelings with clarity, we encourage others to do the same. This communication can act as a soothing balm, fostering harmony and preventing misunderstandings.
Gemini inherently teaches us to accept change, which helps us with adaptability.
Family gatherings often come with a variety of personalities and dynamics. Just as Castor and Pollux navigated their unique circumstances, we, too, can flow through the currents of change with grace. Allow for flexibility in your interactions, and when presented with different perspectives, being adaptable to how we respond will make the transition smoother and more enjoyable for everyone involved. When asked about my lifestyle, one of my favorite responses to my family is simply saying, "It works for me." That is it. And move on.
It could also be helpful over the Full Moon to reflect on the duality within yourself. Just as Castor and Pollux balanced mortal and immortal aspects, we also carry various facets. Use this time to acknowledge and integrate the unique currents of your personality. Recognize the strengths and challenges of you own duality, and extend this understanding to those around you.
The Gemini Moon has chatty energy, so you could create simple rituals engaging in activities that stimulate your mind, such as journaling, reading, or mindful and stimulating conversations. Meditate on the inner dialogue within and release old patterns that may try and return around the holiday season. This could help for smooth transitions in those familial relationships. For my crystal lovers, setting out citrine or clear quartz can help amplify the positive energy.
So let us draw strength from the communicative spirit of Gemini, adapt to the changing winds, reflect on our duality, and infuse your pre or post-gathering transition with intention and understanding!
