The third sign of the zodiac, Gemini is ruled by Mercury which represents intelligence inside matter. The glyph of Gemini symbolizes two pieces of wood bound together. In ancient times this was seen to signify the conflicts arising from contradictory mental processes. Geminis establish their relationship between the self and material substance through a balance of opposing thoughts. This bond may also be interpreted as the link between rhythm and form. Personal Traits The Geminis Interact with the environment, investigate, learn, know and exchange ideas. The intellect dominates Gemini, and all things intellectual are valued greatly by them. As communication is also of importance to Geminis, knowledge is never a thing to be hoarded. Rarely is a Gemini more entertained than in the midst of exchanging ideas with others of an intellectual nature. Being the most versatile of the signs, Geminis are seldom what they seem to be. Chameleon like, they will take a stand, voic...

The Moon is the storehouse of what I like to call out “biological karma”. On exoteric and psychological levels, she is literally and figuratively our mother. She thus represents the nature of the most basic of all of our relationship. The Moon in our natal horoscope therefore speaks to us of our primary needs: food, shelter, material and emotional security. The position of the Moon by sign, house, and aspects to the other planets in our chart, tells us a great deal about our instinctual relationship to such needs. How do we fulfill these primary urges? What constitutes for each of us our instinctual pattern of response when deprived of these basic elements of personal security? In a man´s horoscope, the Moon indicates our relationship to women and to our own inner feminine nature. The lunar position will often indicate the kind of women we seek out for relationship and the nature of the emotional dynamics within such relationship. In a woman´s chart, the placement of the Moon ...

By Wendy St. Germain Reiki can be easily integrated into many aspects of your daily life allowing you to benefit from the relaxing and healing properties of life force energy. In my article, Reiki - Woven Into the Spiritual Fabric of Your Life, I outlined simple Reiki Techniques to start your day, but when you get to work, there are many more opportunities to do Reiki: Make a Reiki symbol card by drawing all the Reiki symbols to which you have been attuned on a piece of paper or a file card. I did this on my computer by drawing the symbols on paper and scanning into the computer. Then print the symbols on a business card and place it out of site around your work space. You can put one under your keyboard, in your file cabinet or on the back of your wall calendar. Use Reiki symbols as passwords for online accounts, you will be typing them each time you login. Place a mini Reiki crystal grid on your desk, at work, in a very attractive box. Keep a picture on your crystal g...

You know what this current mix of transiting energies makes me think of? Taking what’s wild, and applying rules to it. Venus in Aries is just coming off a conjunction with rebel Uranus, and heading into a square with expansive Jupiter in Cancer. Venus in Aries is a bit crazy. Charge after what you want. Flirt with an assertive edge. Draw a little blood. Uranus and Jupiter are punching up those Venus themes (love, money, self-esteem, beauty). Get NOTICED. But Jupiter is trining Saturn Rx in Scorpio. No matter how you slice it, Saturn is about rules. The limits of reality. To me, this feels like taking the crazy____ and  focusing  it. Taking what’s messy and putting some polish on it. Saturn Rx in Scorpio is not about convention, btw (not that kind of polish). It’s about reaching deeper, stretching further (so that you pull a muscle) and coming up with a  meaningful focus . Going to where it aches, and finding the truth, and allowing  those l...

Venus enters randy Aries and conjuncts Uranus this week, setting off a love connection that can burst its sockets.  Go for the gusto but be prepared for a possible gust o’wind. ARIES   (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20) Not only do you know what to say, you are given the rare opportunity to say it to a bevy of influential, powerfully connected  folks. Press the flesh and impress them all in that unique Aries way. But once you have them in the palm of your hand, what do you do next? Plan it out. The idea is to mold them into a useable form. And what shape might that be? Hmmm. TAURUS   (APRIL 21 - MAY 21) There are several things going on this week and most are happening behind the scenes. You may find that you are especially intuitive at discerning the motivations of others. And you may also feel a strong urge to make a positive impact on the world around you. Why not combine both talents, Taurus? Build a team of do-gooders and do some good. Oh goody. ...

Our attention has been on the cacophony of the Cardinal Cross of late, but another actor in the solar system has been playing a subtle role in drama of the skies. The asteroid Chiron -- teacher, martyr, medicine man -- has been sextiling Pluto for much of the past three years. Modern astrologers often assign Chiron's rulership to Virgo, the sign of service and healing, citing the centaur of myth, who was a healer and a teacher. This would fit with the actual astronomy. Chiron reaches 0° declination (the equivalent of the Sun at 0° Aries) every 20 years in either Virgo or Pisces. This is  the polarity of the body and the spirit, the 12th and the 6th houses.  Here Chiron's journey ends or begins. Chiron has an erratic orbit, weaving between Saturn, Uranus and Mars. Because of this inconsistency, he spends much, much longer in some signs. So at the two extremes, he stays  in Pisces for about nine years , and in  Virgo for just over one . This certain...

By Terry Nazon According to the ancient art of astrology there are particular characteristics to each of the 12 zodiac signs. What attracts one zodiac sign to another, and how are the different zodiac signs compatible. In a relationship, in the bedroom, what does your lover really want? To begin with, think about the glyphs or the symbols of the zodiac signs. Zodiac glyphs are ancient symbols, and should be studied to give a more in-depth knowledge about the nature of each Sun Sign. Those Sun signs born under a sign with the symbol of an animal will have more animal instincts, appetites and be more easily aroused just like their animal kingdom counterparts.  The animal glyphs include: Taurus the bull, Sagittarius the half man half horse, Cancer the crab, Leo the lion, Capricorn the sea goat, Pisces the fish, Scorpio the scorpion and Aries the ram. Other sun signs Gemini...

Aphorisms on astrology from the book "Seven Segments" of the Medieval astrologer Cardan Principles of astrology 1.  Life is short, Art long, Experience not easily obtained, Judgment difficult , and therefore it is necessary, that  a Student not only exercise himself in considering several Figures, but also that he diligently read the writings of others who have treated rationally of this Science , and make it his business to find out the true natural causes of things by experiments, to know the certain places and processions of the Planets and Fixed Stars, Constellations, etc., but  above all to be a passionate lover of truth . 2.  The Principles of Art are three: Reason, Sense, and Experience , but the Principles of Operations four, viz.: The Planets, The Parts of Heaven, The Fixed Stars, and the Site or Position of all those in respect of one another. 3. There are some things perfectly known, as the Circle of Ascension; some in a competent measure,...
