New Moon in Gemini | Monday, May 26th 8:03 PM PT

"Not till your thoughts cease all their branching here and there, not till you abandon all thoughts of seeking for something, not till your mind is motionless as wood or stone, will you be on the right road to the Gate."

~Huang Po

New Moon in Gemini |

"When Gemini meets the New Moon, magic happens in your mental realm. This New Moon arrives to shake up your perspective, open new pathways in your mind, and help you see possibilities you might have been blind to before. Gemini energy is all about curiosity, information exchange, and the power of perception—combined with the fresh start energy of a New Moon, you have the perfect cosmic setup to completely reimagine your reality.

This New Moon is your invitation to question everything. What stories have you been telling yourself about who you are and what you can achieve? What mental limits have you accepted as truth? Gemini asks you to challenge these assumptions and open yourself to new ways of seeing your life and your potential.

The beauty of this New Moon is that it helps you recognize just how much power your thoughts have in creating your reality. Every intention you set is programming both your energy field and your brain to seek out evidence that matches your beliefs. When you believe something is possible for you, your mind begins searching for ways to make it happen. When you doubt yourself, your mind finds reasons why you can't succeed. This New Moon is your chance to consciously choose which program you want running in your mental and energetic operating system."

"If this Gemini new moon can teach us anything it’s to be careful with what you say. Be careful what you spread around and be careful what you think. Gemini has a tendency to do a little of everything which is why this new moon is feeling slightly more active than other ones (at least on the mental realm) but if we deliver information that is not correct we indulge in the shadow side of Gemini. White lies, trickery, gossip. We need to be mindful of all of this and if you want to see shadow Gemini energy in action, just look at tweets from the current leader.

Gemini is restlessness and rules the nervous system which is why a lot of Geminis move around a lot. They are literally responding to the activity that is going on inside of them. Meditation is so very important for Geminis even though most will say they can’t…and that is exactly why they need to!

Gemini (and this new moon) do not want to be bored so it goes to the mental realm to learn more and gather more info. All if fine and good except for one thing.

Since we are talking the moon here the moon is the feminine and the feminine wants to feel. A moon in Gemini will rationalize more than feel and with a new moon in Gemini we can’t ignore either so integration needs to happen.

This new moon is about writing/speaking. What is on your mind that you need to express and also how does it make you feel?"

"The new moon is a time of beginnings, fresh starts, and setting intentions. It represents a blank slate, inviting us to plant the seeds for what we want to grow in the coming lunar cycle. When the new moon aligns with the airy and curious energy of Gemini, it brings a unique opportunity to embrace adaptability, communication, and intellectual expansion.

The new moon in Gemini merges the fresh-start energy of the new moon with the inquisitive, social, and adaptable nature of Gemini. As an air sign ruled by Mercury, Gemini thrives on ideas, communication, and intellectual exploration. This new moon encourages us to embrace curiosity, self-expression, and flexibility."

"Gemini hunts for fascinating facts. Dualistic ideas. Opposing points of view. Gemini wants nothing more than to have its mind stretched beyond comprehension.

Gemini teaches us about the duality that is present in all things. It wants to know both sides to each situation. It is both the thief and the merchant. The messenger and the liar. The effervescent youth and the withdrawn hermit. Master of none, Gemini is willing to play out all roles. Gemini reminds us that all of us have a twin self that can either lurk in the shadows or be integrated into our conscious awareness. None of us is without our duality. We might like to drag Geminis for their blatant manifestation of this duality, but we each have every sign within us. Every sign is a different aspect of the human condition.

Be careful who you call out. It might just be yourself."

Butterfly Poetry: Ritual for the New Moon in Gemini

“Poetry is a language against which you have no defenses."

‍~David Whyte

Expression. Metamorphosis. Surrender. Rebirth.

The Gemini New Moon is a time to honor your voice, your inner and outer dialogue, and the stories you carry. Like the butterfly in its chrysalis, the New Moon invites stillness before the bloom—an ideal moment to shed outdated narratives and emerge with fresh wings. This ritual uses the power of poetry to process emotion, awaken your voice, and plant seeds for the next chapter of your life.

‍

1. Create Your Chrysalis

Curate your sacred space where you are free to express and transform. Dim the lights. Light a candle. Imagine yourself inside a cocoon of soft golden light—safe, private, held. This is your sacred chrysalis for reflection and rebirth. Give yourself permission to be messy. Breathe deeply and feel yourself settle.

2. Butterfly Poetry Prompts

Use these prompts to write poetry that honors your voice through a moment of metamorphasis:

• Where I’ve Been (grief, confusion, stuckness)
• What I’ve Felt (emotions asking to be seen)
• What I’m Learning (insights, patterns, truths)
• What I’m Becoming (longings, dreams, your wings)
• My Voice Today (an affirmation, a declaration, a whisper of becoming)

There are no rules. Write in fragments or full verses. Your voice is enough. This poem is for you—a mirror of the soul mid-transformation.

3. Read Aloud & Release

When your poem feels complete, read it aloud. Let your voice carry the energy of release and renewal. If something stirs or tears come, let them. You're making space.

If you like, fold your poem and place it under your pillow, or burn it as a symbolic release and let the ashes scatter to the wind.

4. Close the Chrysalis

Blow out the candle. Imagine new wings unfolding within you. Say to yourself: “Like the butterfly, I trust in the timing of my becoming.”

Happy Gemini New Moon!
