December 15, 2024 — A Gemini Full Moon arrives on Sunday, squaring dreamy Neptune in Pisces. Our minds may feel a little foggy, and truth is hard to discern. Neptune is the planet of transcendence and confusion. As he challenges the Sun in Sagittarius and Moon in Gemini, we may feel like we’re lost at sea. What’s real, and what’s illusion?

Luckily, Mercury (Gemini’s ruler) is set to station direct later in the day, granting us much-needed clarity. The planets’ message is paradoxical, just like the Twins—If we can surrender to not knowing, relaxing our spinning minds and over-intellectualization, we’ll be able to see through the haze. Insights and lucidity are ready to abound, especially if we call on both our intellect and intuition.

This is the last Full Moon of 2024, so it’s a beautiful chance to release all that doesn’t serve us and to forgive ourselves and others before the New Year begins. How can we move into deeper acceptance? How can we melt resentments and anger into love?

It’s a good moment to realize that this is all a dream—one we can honor fully while remembering to not hold on too tightly.

Gemini FULL MOON Aspiration

As the first snow falls, may we relax and remember that love transcends all, and truth comes when we allow our thoughts to settle. May confusion become softness, and our minds as crisp as the winter morning.
