In an intimate and intense meeting, the three sattvic planets (Sun, Moon, and Jupiter) merge at just over 9° degrees of Gemini, in the domain of the hunter and howler, Ardra, a fierce form of Lord Shiva.
Third from the New Moon, Ketu and Mars are conjunct, where ambition, competition, willpower, and independence come at high stakes. Saturn, tenth from the New Moon, suggests a possible long-term exposure.
As the Moon joins Jupiter and the Sun in Ardra Nakshatra, expanding the intensity of energy, Jupiter combust in Ardra may cloud our judgment and make us impulsive. Take care when making important decisions.
Three sattvic planets of grace and guidance now move through a masculine, transactional, and destructive space. We may be crying out... What the hell is going on?
Yet beneath all this amassed intensity around us and within us lies an inexhaustible field of energy available to us. The rebirth of who we are. Teaching us the meaning of sacrifice and the need for transformation in our lives.
Turning a troubled energy and bringing in the light. Driving the intensity into creativity and deep focus on our true purpose. Unlearning the programming of domestication, of who we should be rather than who we are. Remembering that being unchained and vibrant is an essential part of who we are.
This suggests a deeply transformational period ideal for purification practices, and for releasing unwanted patterns, ideas, outdated feelings, and relationships. Let the storm rush in and wash it all away. Take hold of the strength of Mars and Ketu to give you the courage to overcome obstacles, and Saturn guide you toward lasting success.
This New Moon marks Ashadha Amavasya a sacred fortnight devoted to honouring our ancestors with heartfelt offerings, bathing in sacred waters and acts of charity to the poor. A good time to knock on the doors of all your guides with your prayers and ask for support if needed.
Check your natal chart, the Gemini house holds the key to your transformation. As you ride the ups and downs of this lunation, keep in mind that what is happening is happening for you. It’s working to purify and clear the space within, by revealing what disturbs your inner peace.
Trust that through your inner work and sincere search for truth, you are contributing to something greater.
With infinite love and a prayer for peace.
