Mercury in Gemini - ☿♊

Gemini is the natural home for Mercury, and the placement produces pure logical reasoning of the highest order. This Mercury denotes a lightning quick thinker. Your concern is with fact and unbiased understanding, rather than personal preference. Communication is easy, rapid, accurate and often eloquent. You are an interesting and incessant conversationalist. Mercury is at its quickest and best when it resides in Gemini.

If given proper training, you excel in mathematics as well as in language. You are very logical, and your mind moves very quickly. You love logic, a fact making you an excellent teacher or reporter.

When engaged in arguments, you may miss a basic premise, but you are clever enough to win anyway. The opponent is convinced by your rational remarks. You have a great variety of interests, and your mind may flit from one idea to the next, never digging in very deeply. You have an intense curiosity leading you to want to know a little about nearly everything. This makes you a very interesting person, but rarely an expert in any particular field.

The down side of Mercury in Gemini is the sensitive nervous system often noted. It’s hard for you to shut out external stimulation of any sort. You may find yourself being forced to deal with too much activity and too many impressions from time to time. If you allow yourself to be subjected to too much stress and too many demands for an extended period, you can become frazzled and subject to breakdown. The obvious signs of this problem are irritability and mental confusion. The root cause of this is simply spreading yourself too thin. Getting away from it all generally provides a quick cure.

Moon quincunx Ceres - ☽⚻ʡ

Moon quincunx Ceres like all the 150 degree aspects, strives for perfection. Since both Ceres and the Moon are ultra-feminine they could be obsessed with the quest of the perfect female. In a woman this could be about perfecting her own beauty, but in a man this could manifest in the quest for the perfect woman. This may result in an insatiable, but also restless sexdrive. It could be comfort eating or comfort kissing! The Moon and Ceres are also both symbols of the mother so this subject will strive to become the perfect hostess, mother or nursemaid. But they can equally be accused of interfering and fussing when they go too far. At their best they will bake the most sumptuous cakes, or create the most voluptuous and sensually arousing music or art. If you do happen to fall ill they will make the perfect nurse, puffing up your pillows and making you the most heavenly chicken soup you ever tasted.

Moon quincunx Ceres is extremely hands-on and lush. They love to touch, savour and caress the things they value. However they are surprising generous with their abundance, it’s like they milk what they have for all its worth because they know they will have to give it away fairly soon. They will express their love with much affection and make it very hard for their lovers to leave their cosy bed. Endings are accepted easily however, and they are onto the next person or project with the same devotion. Moon quincunx Ceres are great at comforting and soothing others, but not so good at relaxing themselves. They are the worlds worst worriers.

Moon trine Neptune - ☽△♆

Moon trine Neptune must be one of the most romantic, poetic, idol-making aspect one can have. It’s not surprising that there are a few matinee idols listed below then. The unreality and glamour of film lends itself so well to the Moon and Neptune. The trine makes it even more fantastical, spectacular and out of this world. This is also an aspect found in artists and designers as it seeks to beautify and refine the world around it. The main thing with Moon trine Neptune is that it wants to merge with its surroundings. Their boundaries are so thin that they can feel the harshness of the 3D world a little too acutely. Sometimes they may feel the need to take the edge off with alcohol or drugs.

Moon trine Neptune can become extremely devoted to their lover, but need to be careful their longing to merge doesn’t leave them with no sense of self whatsoever. They do best when they put this great devotion into an all-consuming passion, Ie; An artistic project, spiritual practice or best of all, working to transform the lives of the sick and needy.  Moon trine Neptune wants to make things as perfect as possible, so perfect that they may look quite surreal against the backdrop of the real world. In relationships they need to guard against putting their partners on too high a pedestal. Their chosen god or goddess only has to slip a tiny bit and the disappointment is palpable. This insidious Neptunian dissolving can seriously erode a partnership over time.

Moon sextile Pluto - ☽⚹♇

Moon sextile Pluto seems to have many more sinister undertones than one would expect from a soft aspect, but this is still a Hades moon. Moon/Pluto aspects are never going to be easy because the sensitive moon combined with the sometime hellish transformation of outer planet Pluto is going to be hard for an individual to carry on a personal level. What the sextile can do however, is at least channel this intense, penetrating and occasionally ruthless energy into something creative. The artistic products are not going to be light hearted or bubble-gum, they will have the tinge of the underworld to them, be powerful or even political. The work could be profound and involve deep exploration of ones shadow and any taboo sexual proclivities.

Where the creative outlet is blocked we can get into trouble. In this case, the subject needs to raise to a higher vibration through much soul searching to find Pluto’s buried gold. The list of celebrities include a disturbing amount of serial killers and sex criminals, but also occultists. Some are a bit of both Ie; Crowley. One thing that Pluto inspires above all is awe and power, the sizzling sextile and the mysterious nocturnal world of the moon make it all the more magical and spellbinding.

Moon Square Pluto - ☽□♇

Moon square Pluto is probably one of the most intense and hungry moon aspects you can have. This is the raging Kali archetype par excellence. Moon square Pluto can be the product of an obsessive, possessive mother or be obsessed with being a mother. In some cases (The West’s, Kenisha Berry) the mother as destroyer can be literal. The moment HMS Titanic struck the Plutonic iceberg the Moon was square Pluto (63′). How symbolic of this aspect, the great ship weighed down by her treasures, plunged deep into the underworld with the loss of so many lives.

Moon square Pluto throws itself into the deep end when it comes to its emotions also. They experience relationships, truly, madly and deeply, but they can also easily freeze over in an instant if someone else tries to dominate, manipulate or control them! The Moon square Pluto is extremely sensitive to seething undercurrents in a domestic situation, and in childhood may have been the receptacle for all the poisonous and unexpressed family grievances. They learn to bury these feelings, only for them to explode volcano-like at a later date. The tension generated by the square in this Hades Moon is tough, but creates black-gold which then fuels immense talent. The subjects feel compelled to purge their long suppressed rage and emotions creatively, which can bring them power and success.

Moon Square Lilith - ☽□⚸

Moon square Lilith is one of the most challenging Black Moon Lilith aspect you can have, but it is ultimately one of the most powerful. The subject will go through life facing constant intense triangular relationships that will either make or break them. They may be asked to choose between mother and spouse, child and lover or family and spiritual path. Exceptional demands may be made of them to make heartbreaking decisions, which in the end may exile them from their family. They need to learn that they can’t please everyone and to own their Lilith sovereignty. With this set up they will always end up hurting someone so they might as well pick the solution that makes their soul the happiest. They may break under the pressure of this aspect and succumb to the temptation of Lilith’s forbidden fruit in the shape of sex addiction or drugs. If they manage to come through then these subjects are a fantastic example of the Phoenix rising from the flames. The valuable life lessons they have learnt from their traumas become an inspiration to those still caught up in the darkness.
