The New Moon in Gemini at 6 degrees arrives on May 26th at 1:02 PM ET, marking the start of a new lunar cycle—a fresh invitation to begin again.

This New Moon carries the energy of curiosity, ideas, and new perspectives. Gemini, ruled by Mercury, is the sign of communication, learning, and connection. It invites us to open our minds, ask better questions, and stay flexible in how we think, speak, and relate.

Under this New Moon, the sky whispers:
🌑 What do you want to learn?
🌑 What new questions are calling you?
🌑 Where can you open your mind to fresh perspectives?

Gemini Energy: The Twins, The Air, and The Questions

Gemini is the sign of the Twins—the mirror, the dance of opposites, the inner dialogue that teaches us there’s always more than one way to see the world. This is an energy of duality and integration: light and shadow, self and other, thought and action, dream and reality.

Gemini is an air sign—fluid, light, and ever-moving. Air governs our thoughts, words, breath, and connections. It moves ideas like the wind, scattering seeds far and wide. Under this Gemini New Moon, we’re reminded:
✨ What you think, you become. What you say, you shape. Your words are spells, and your voice has power.

At 6 degrees Gemini, the Sabian Symbol gives us an image to work with:
“Workmen drilling for oil.”
This is a call to dig deeper. To stay curious. To seek the truth beneath the surface. The treasures you seek may not be found through quick answers or surface-level conversations. They require effort, focus, and a willingness to go beyond the obvious.

In Tarot, Gemini is linked to:

• The Lovers (VI)—the card of choice, relationship, and integration. It asks: What choices align with your truth? What connections reflect your deepest values?
• The Magician (I)—the manifestor, the one who says: I have all the tools I need. My words are my wand. This is a reminder that you have everything within you to begin.

Saturn Enters Aries: A Call to Action

But there’s another layer to this moment:
🔥 Saturn just moved into Aries on May 24th, for the first time in nearly 30 years.

Saturn is the planet of commitment, structure, discipline, and long-term growth. It teaches us that dreams don’t become reality overnight—they require effort, consistency, and patience.

Aries is bold, fiery, and impulsive—the first spark of the zodiac, the courage to begin. It says:
🔥 Follow your instincts.
🔥 Take bold action.
🔥 Be willing to learn as you go.

Together, Saturn in Aries asks:
🌿 Where in your life are you ready to take aligned action—not just dream, but do?
🌿 What structures need to be built to support your long-term growth?
🌿 Where can you commit to small, steady steps, even when it feels uncomfortable?

This is the season of beginning before you’re ready, showing up when it’s messy, and trusting that you’ll figure it out as you go.

How This Energy Affects You – Find Gemini and Aries in Your Chart

Every New Moon plants seeds somewhere specific in your life.
To find where this Gemini New Moon is working for you:
♊️Pull up your natal birth chart (you can use free tools like Astro.com or Astro-Seek).
♊️ Look for 6 degrees Gemini—what house is it in? That’s the area of your life ready for fresh ideas, learning, and connection.
♈️ Next, find where Aries is in your chart—especially the house where Saturn has just arrived. That’s where you’re being asked to build, commit, and take action over the next few years.

For example, in my chart:
🌑 This Gemini New Moon falls in my 8th house, alongside my North Node and Chiron. This is an invitation to explore deeper themes of trust, healing, transformation, and intimacy. It’s a time to ask: Where can I open up to deeper connection? What fears or wounds around vulnerability am I ready to release? What is asking to be transformed within me? With the North Node here, it’s about growth—even if it feels uncomfortable. And with Chiron, it’s about healing old wounds around trust, shared energy, and emotional depth.

🔥 Saturn just moved into my 6th house of daily rhythms, health, and service. This is where I’m being asked to get serious—to create consistent, healthy routines that support my work and well-being. Saturn here whispers: Show up. Commit to your body, your work, and your habits, even when it’s not easy. Build the structure that will carry you forward.

So my intentions this New Moon might sound like:

I breathe into the spaces within me where trust has been hard to hold.
I soften the walls I’ve built to protect what feels most tender—my voice, my work, my body, my heart.

I plant seeds of trust.
Trust in my timing.
Trust in the process of transformation.
Trust that what is meant for me will not pass me by.

I remember that the seeds I plant in the quiet dark—the ones no one else sees—are the ones that bloom when the time is right.

I tend to my body, my rituals, my work, and my relationships as a sacred garden.
I nourish them with love, with presence, with care.
I make space for new growth by releasing the habits, patterns, and fears that no longer serve me.

I let go of the need for perfection and open to the beauty of becoming.
I trust the seasons of my life.
I trust that I am guided.
I trust that I am exactly where I need to be.

With this New Moon, I plant these seeds into the fertile soil of my soul—and I trust they will grow in their own time.

Let the Moon and Saturn guide you:
🌿 Where am I curious to grow?
🔥 Where do I need to show up with courage and consistency?

A Ritual for Setting Intentions

This Gemini New Moon is an opportunity to pause, reflect, and plant seeds for the cycle ahead. Here’s a simple ritual to guide you:

1️⃣ Create a quiet space. Light a candle. Make a cup of tea. Breathe deeply.

2️⃣ Reflect on these prompts:
🌑 What do I want to learn, explore, or share in this next cycle?
🌑 What small, bold action can I take to begin?
🌑 Where am I being asked to dig deeper, to trust the process, to stay curious?
🌑 What old stories, habits, or fears can I release to make space for what’s next?
🌑 What commitments am I ready to make that will support my growth?

3️⃣ Write your intentions. Let them be light and spacious, like Gemini air—open to change, flexible, and curious. Write them as invitations, not rigid goals.

4️⃣ Speak your intentions aloud. Let your voice be the magic. Feel the words as spells cast into the universe.

5️⃣ Optional grounding practice:
Move your body in a way that feels light and playful. Let your curiosity guide you—take a walk, water your plants, explore a new idea. Ask yourself:
🌿 What is my outer garden teaching me about my inner garden?
🌿 What needs my attention, my patience, my trust?

Final Gathering Under the Gemini New Moon – May 27th

If you’re local to Peterborough, you’re invited to our final Moon Circle gathering at Right to Heal on May 27th at 6:30 PM. We’ll gather in community, share, release, and plant our intentions together under the Gemini sky.

A Reminder

You are the gardener of your life. What you allow to grow takes up space. If you want something new to bloom, you must tend the soil, clear the weeds, and trust the process.

This New Moon is a whisper to begin again. To choose curiosity. To trust your voice. And to plant the seeds of a life you love.

May your intentions be clear, your courage steady, and your dreams take root in fertile ground.

Closing Reflection

The Gemini New Moon whispers:
You don’t have to have all the answers.
You don’t have to wait for perfection.
You just have to begin.

Let your words be your seeds.
Let your actions water them.
Let curiosity be your guide.

Your dreams are worth the tending.
Your life is the garden.
Trust the process.
