FULL MOON AT 23˚ GEMINI: DECEMBER 15th

Hey friends! Today’s Full Moon in Gemini illuminates the final chapter of 2024, offering a powerful opportunity to reflect, release, and realign. Gemini, the sign of the mind, communication, and duality, brings focus to the patterns that fragment our energy—worry, overthinking, divisiveness, and scattered intentions.

This lunation invites us to quiet the mental noise, let go of divisive energies, and shift our perspective. It’s a call to free yourself from the distractions that pull you away from your inner truth and align with the clarity and courage needed to step forward into 2025. Remember – December is for de-compressing!

The energies surrounding this Full Moon also point to deeper themes of recalibration. What truths have emerged in recent weeks? What beliefs, relationships, or directions no longer serve your highest path? As the year draws to a close, this is not just a time to reflect on where you’ve been, but to prepare for where you are going.

2025 will require focus, discernment, and alignment, and this moment offers the space to release what feels heavy or misaligned, creating room for purpose and passion to emerge. Let this Full Moon be your moment of intentional release—letting go of mental clutter, old fears, and stagnant energy—clearing the path for the bold transformations ahead.

Mercury Stations Direct on Today’s Full Moon

Today’s Full Moon in Gemini also brings a significant turning point as it’s ruler – Mercury –  stations direct, ending its three-week retrograde cycle. During this period, we’ve been reevaluating our beliefs, questioning what we thought we knew, and sorting through layers of information—some of it enlightening, much of it misleading.

In a world currently rife with “info wars”—misinformation, disinformation, and mind-bending narratives—many may feel mentally overwhelmed. With Neptune squaring this Full Moon, the veil of illusion is thin. What we once held as “truth” may suddenly reveal itself as false, leading to feelings of confusion or disillusionment.

However, with Mercury now moving forward in Sagittarius, the sign of higher wisdom, we are reminded that the search for truth must begin within. In a time of mass manipulation and distorted realities, it is through our own discernment, intuition, and alignment with higher awareness that we find clarity.

This is the moment to trust yourself—your inner knowing holds the truth you seek.

Checking In: Mars Retrograde & the Path Ahead

As Mars Retrograde continues, we are deep in a process of reassessing our direction, creativity, and passion—the fire that fuels our forward momentum. From December 6th to February 23rd, Mars retraces its steps first in Leo and then back into Cancer, challenging us to slow down and redefine what drives us.

Mars, as ruler of Aries, governs the divine masculine within all of us: our courage, willpower, and ability to act. This retrograde period is intricately linked to the seeds planted under the powerful Aries eclipse on April 8th, 2024, which initiated a profound shift in our relationship to leadership, sovereignty, and inner strength.

But there’s another layer to this: intimate relationships are also being profoundly impacted. Since the nodal axis shifted into Libra-Aries in the spring of 2023, relationships have been under the microscope. This energy has pushed us to confront imbalances between the masculine and feminine, within both ourselves and our partnerships. Mars Retrograde amplifies this, highlighting where our relationships are out of alignment, stagnant, or struggling under the weight of unhealed energies—whether it’s dominance, control, suppression, or disconnection.

For many, this is a time of intense relational recalibration. The final Aries eclipse in March 2025 marks the closing chapter of this 18-month cycle, where the themes of self versus other come to completion. Mars Retrograde invites us to ask:

• Where has the wounded masculine energy—within ourselves or our partners—caused imbalance?
• Are we asserting our needs while honoring the other, or are we falling into patterns of dominance or passivity?
• How can we bring more courage, vulnerability, and authenticity into our closest connections?

This retrograde calls forth the true spiritual warriors—those willing to heal the wounded masculine within, regardless of gender. Women, too, internalize patterns of over-control, burnout, or disconnection from intuition. Healing this within ourselves restores balance in our intimate partnerships, creating space for deeper harmony and mutual empowerment.

Walking the path of the Bodhisattva—the spiritual warrior—means cultivating courage and strength while honoring love, grace, and humility. As we align our passion with purpose and clear away the shadows, we prepare not only for our individual rebirth but for the evolution of our relationships.

This isn’t just a pause—it’s a refinement of the warrior within. As we write the final chapter of the Libra-Aries nodal axis story, we are reclaiming the fire of authentic connection—within ourselves and with others. Trust this process. The fire that emerges from this inner work will burn brighter, purer, and in alignment with truth, love, and balance.

Stay the course. The fire will return.
