As our Sun concludes its transit in Taurus we leave the energy that has fixed us into spring. Now get ready for change as the Sun moves forward into the mutable air sign Gemini, ruled by the swift planet Mercury. Known as The Messenger, those ruled by this planet either astrologically or numerically are known best for their ability to adapt and play the role of the communicator. Symbolized by the Twins, Geminis deal with dual-natured energies more than any other sign.

The element of air allows a Gemini to thrive in any area that deals with intelligence. This clever sign has a strong awareness that consciously aims them to seek all kinds of relationships. Best at imitation, improvisation, inventing, reasonability and learning, a Geminis mutability marks their alert, adaptable, experimental, and inquisitive nature.

At worst the Twins are inconsistent, restless, gossipy, and non-committal. Their challenges in life lie in the ability to cultivate concentration and organization as well as developing the power that comes from sympathetic listening. When they fully understand how to relax, they are able to unite the desires within their dual sense of self.

Geminis energy affects each and every one of us, no matter what astrological sun sign we are. On an individual level, look to the Gemini ruled house in the birth chart to see where you are strong in your communication abilities and can express ultimate cleverness. As the Sun passes through this house over the month ahead, expect an extra boost of energy to this area of your life.

The Mystic Neptune turns retrograde in Aquarius on 5/24 this month until Halloween. As the sympathetic energies of Neptune reverses in the sign of new life and reform, we can expect responsive upheavals on the collective in our social, political, and humanitarian ideals. Independent activities have the tendency to become inflated, while attention should be paid to the Aquarian ruled house in the birth chart over this passage, to stay clear of any delusional and perverse reactions in this area of the life.

The Full Moon peaks upon 5/31 as the Moon transits through Sagittarius until 6/2, where emotional expression in the expansive Archer sign ultimately strives for stimulation, knowledge and honesty. The Moon will conjunct Pluto and Jupiter while they continue their retrograde activity in Sagittarius, as freedom is screaming to be let out on the collective. These spirited and intense days mark a passage when the aiming for enthusiasm, the enjoyment of life, and mature inspirations is best advised; steering clear of arrogance and rebelliousness prevents unfulfilled desires. Ones Sagittarian ruled house will point to the area of life optimism needs to be applied at this time.

Mercury will be up to his typical tricks as we enter his second retrograde period of 2007 on 6/15 until 7/9. Cancer is the chosen sign for our Messengers energies to toy with the collectives imaginative, receptive and emotional communications. Cancer natives and the Cancer ruled house will feel the intensity of this transit. As always, adhere to the REs of any Mercury REtrograde period: REdo, REassess, REflect, RElax, and hold off on initiating projects for the long-term success.

May we all communicate in awareness through all our relations during this adaptable month ahead.
