This astrological moment in the human paradigm of time could be best described as “the spaghetti test”. You know. The Italian cooking lore of throwing a few strands of the pasta to the wall to see what sticks, and if it sticks, it’s ready? Yeah. That.
Gemini is now being visited by its ruling planet, Mercury, which moved into the sign on Friday 6/3. The sign of the student mind is now occupied by the planet of speed, agility and communication. Ideas and thoughts are now flying quickly and abundantly, giving us plenty to think about and plenty to say. And with Venus and Mars still traveling through Taurus (and Jupiter joining them in Taurus today), there continues to be a great deal of energy focused on our physical-material-financial resources – the substance of our lives. Your new-found bounty of rapid-fire thoughts and ideas may still be focused on your feelings and actions regarding resource matters. These may also be questions and thoughts of your own personal value, worth, and self-esteem.
However, your mind may also or alternatively be focused on allowing your creative thoughts and ideas to flow as you consider what you can use to generate your essential or desired resources.
Remember that this is a time of Sun in Gemini and the mental and communicative energies are the dominant energies in play. With Mercury now in Gemini as well, you may find that you’re inclined to share your creative resource-generating thoughts and ideas with others as communication is opening up beginning to flow quickly and easily as well.
In fact, it may be flowing too easily.
With so much on our minds and so much to say, those of us who like to maintain some sort of control or discipline over our minds and mouths may be finding that it’s tough to keep track of everything we are thinking and saying. We may not be aware of just how many creative ideas we really are generating, or rather, how much mental and verbal spaghetti we are tossing about. We may also be somewhat naive about who we are communicating our ideas to, or rather, who we are sharing our spaghetti with. Some people around us may be enjoying the ‘free meal’.
Letting your energy flow is a wonderful thing. Yet even in going with the flow, allowing yourself to establish a sense of direction is important. When you lose track of what you are flowing toward, you may find yourself lost or aimlessly wandering about. If you are consumed with throwing a lot of ideas out there, it makes it difficult to recognize the strand of spaghetti that is sticking for you – it makes it difficult to see the creative idea that is ready for you to act upon and expand on.
I think back to something mentioned in the New Moon-Eclipse in Gemini blog earlier this week – be careful what you ask for because you may get it. If you are putting a lot of ideas out there, you are in effect “asking” the Universe for a lot. Keep in mind: the Universe hears you! As Jupiter moves into Taurus today, you may find that you gradually begin to actually get all that you’ve asked for…but you may not recognize half of what you are getting because you’ve forgotten you asked for it in the first place!
I’m not saying not to create a big dream. I am not saying not to create freely and often.
What I am saying is create smart. I am saying create with intention. Keep track of your creative ideas and communications.
I am saying remember what you’re cooking for dinner and who you are cooking for.
With all of that said, tomorrow is the 1st anniversary of Life By Soul. Born with Gemini in its 5th house of joy and pleasure, its existence is rooted in the enjoyment of shining its Light through its communication of information. As a 6 life path, its intention is to nurture and heal. And I find myself asking, “Have I allowed my practice to radiate its truth?”
I’ve been looking back over the last 12 months to see if I have honored Life By Soul’s natal intention to nurture and heal through the communication of the information I am able to draw from the charts and cards I read. I’ve been looking to see if I have allowed its intention of awakening deep-seated purpose and life-affirming transformation to take hold.
I realize that I’ve allowed Life By Soul‘s intention to be expressed in fits and spurts, but I haven’t really allowed it to flow freely and be fully known. There have been times in the last year where I lost track of what I was committed to and what my intention was with my practice. I recognize how throughout most of the year, I kept throwing spaghetti to the wall well before it was done, trying to make things stick that weren’t true to Life By Soul or to myself. As much as I am grateful for all I have learned in my experience of this first year of starting this practice, I’ve also come to recognize that it is time for an adjustment – a clarification of course.
So that is what I’ve been up to and continue to be up to today – clarifying the message of Life By Soul, making sure that you know what I know about what is possible for all of us through the work I am blessed to do. There will be more blog posts, more tweets, more depth, and more Life coming forth! I am excited to share the renewed intention, purpose and message of Life By Soul with you very soon and for many years to come!
Stay tuned…
~ Light, Love, and Blessings,
Grace
