Full Moons tend to be highly charged events for relationships as it is. Today\u2019s Gemini Full Moon, exact at 4:28 am EST, is in aspect to several points and planets asking us to pay careful attention to where we use our energy consciously versus where we use it unconsciously, particularly when it comes to socially codified relationship expectations and the question of spiritual growth.<\/p>\n

That is, what counts as spiritual growth when you\u2019re in a relationship with someone?<\/p>\n

For example, is \u2018spiritual growth in relationship\u2019 about learning the arts of compromise and apology, and making yourself vulnerable to being wrong? <\/p>\n

Is it making yourself vulnerable to possibly being off-center and then learning how to regain it? (We only get the hang of things by practice, right?) <\/p>\n

Is it \u2018spiritual\u2019 to focus solely on what you perceive as your path of inner growth, whether those you care about can keep up or not?<\/p>\n

When does being in spiritual integrity with yourself indicate bending and flowing with another? When does it indicate maintaining protective boundaries? How can you be sure either way?<\/p>\n

The primary minor planets contributing to this tension are the asteroid Juno and centaur planet Nessues, which are conjunct in Aquarius. In Aquarius, both Juno and Nessus speak of crystallized social expectations around relationships (especially regarding jealousy, marriage, sexuality and abusive behavior), which we’ve internalized from endless conditioning. In aspect to the Full Moon, they also speak to the potential to give crystallized patterns a push and update our files. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Gemini Moon is trine these two objects, suggesting ease — and that you could just as easily stay set in those patterns and cling to those social expectations as not. It doesn\u2019t sound like the most \u2018spiritual\u2019 path, but it is familiar — and not everyone in your life will necessarily embrace your decision to step onto an unorthodox path in your relationships with them. <\/p>\n

While it is possible to take big steps while not supported by those closest to you, it takes some real courage and conviction. Fear and self-doubt can lead to self-sabotage, but this Full Moon holds the potential to use the mutable-sign energy of Gemini and Sagittarius to light a fire under social expectations. Melt them, evaporate them, shatter them, morph them — whatever works. <\/p>\n

The Sagittarius Sun is in a helpful aspect to Juno and Nessus (a sextile). You have to make a conscious effort to use that energy, just like it takes conscious effort to try the unfamiliar. But the broader perspective, fiery spirit and bold calling offered by the Sagittarius Sun may help you find that your choices are not only truer to who you are, they make the world a little larger for you to explore.<\/p>\n

The monthly opposition between the Sun and the Moon heightens emotions and reactions between us and our partners, coworkers and friends — thanks to the light of the Sun (consciousness) projecting onto and being reflected back by the Moon (the subconscious). In other words, we see something about ourselves reflected back at us by others, and that can be provocative in relationships. Noticed with awareness, that provocation can spur us to deeper understanding, and the desire to act on it.<\/p>\n

Add the placement of the Moon in Gemini (let\u2019s verbally process our feelings!) and the Sun in Sagittarius conjunct the Galactic Center (what is spiritual and how do we do it?) and it\u2019s possible your feisty, wordy, trigger-happy interactions could open your world up to healing and growth instead of just rehashing. For that to happen, however, will take some introspection — no mean feat when faced with the glare of a Full Moon and its insistence that we see in others what\u2019s asking for our attention within.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
