Last Quarter Moon in Gemini. Mercury in Virgo sesquiquadrate Pluto retrograde in Aquarius – We’re in the last turn now of the lunar cycle, edging towards the next new moon and the end of eclipse season. It’s natural to want to let little problems drop, to leave behind quibbling and carefully get on with the task of living. The conclusions we came to, the decisions we made over the last few weeks, press for practical implementation. But maybe the mind isn’t on board – it questions everything, over analyzes, micromanages.
It’s possible that the private running commentary revolves around requiring proof. I want proof that my idea will work, proof that it will all work out, proof that this won’t fail. We humans often want to know the whole story before we’ve even started. But Spirit knows that the little nudge of insight, the quiet word on the wind, the moment of ‘knowing’ is all that is required right now to set you on your way. Sometimes you just have to decide to trust it – and yourself.
