Gemini time is the approach of the 6-month mark of the year and Summer Solstice, just as its polar opposite, Sagittarius, is the approach of the culmination of the year at Winter Solstice. At this stage, we are still gathering information that will (hopefully) translate into Sag’s wisdom come the completion of this annual cycle. Every year around Gemini time, several planets retrograde (appear to pull back, slow down or reverse altogether) indicating it is time to ‘gather information’ to make better decisions upon forward movement later in the year. At this time, multiple aspects of our individual and collective lives require that we ‘check-in’ and ‘assess’ where we are, how far we’ve come and just how much further we have to go. Review the last 6 months so you can make any necessary adjustments for the upcoming 6-months, in the hopes of getting something worthwhile accomplished by year’s end.

This month you will have to take many deep breaths to maintain your equilibrium. The pressure is intense and the speed of which information is coming at you, is continuing to increase. Always keep in the back of your mind, if you cannot control it, release it to the Universe … and if you CAN control it, then this (whatever is activating your “control” or “survival” buttons) is just a reminder to inhale back your own authority and your personal power to choose … your power to change your mind and thus, your circumstances. In the instant you commit to your choice, change can occur.

Taurus/Scorpio energy brings awareness of your deepest values, renewal of your priorities and access to the power to co-create your world. Taurus time (April/May) is an annual opportunity to seed the *Garden* of your life … while Scorpio time (Oct/Nov) brings the annual gifts of power, magic and purification. Working consciously with these energies gives you a chance to truly ground your Highest intentions and bring them into ‘form’ to serve the greater good, which will attract blessings beyond your wildest imagination … *IF* you maintain integrity and do the work! Earth energy requires getting real ~ getting serious ~ and often, getting dirty! It is a chance to co-create, contribute and allow Great Spirit to breathe life into the seeds you plant at this time.

As the Sun enters Aries ~ Spring Equinox Initiates a new Solar/astrological year. This is a *Universal* RE-Set Button. Clean Slate. New Beginning. This is an Annual Activation for everyone, but for the Cardinal Family, it can be a little more intense & personal … Aries Initiation ~ Libra Integration ~ Cancer/Capricorn Test/Growth. Everyone has Aries ruling some area of life and this is the area of life that gets activated at this time every year.

Scorpio brought some very real, very heavy duty stuff to the surface for most people. That kind of deep, energetic shift is the catalyst for the *Spiritual Quest* energy of Sag. Sagittarius is the Adventurer and Researcher of the zodiac, curious about the deeper meaning of all things and in cultivating Truth.

Scorpio is the energy of power, conception, creation & karma; Pluto is the energy of death, rebirth and transformation; and the 8th House is the energy of past life relationships, Ancestors and personal renewal. This is the most powerful time of the year for planting the seeds of what you want to manifest in your life, as well as what you want to release (permanently) from your life. I highly recommend that you take some serious quiet time, meditate for a while and then write them, sing them – dedicate in some way.
