The new moon for June is falling in the nakshatra of “Ardra”. Ardra is a sharp fierce nakshatra.
Ardra’s meaning is the “the moist one” and is shown as the teardrop. There is a connection with destruction, as the deity is Rudra, the lord of storms and god of destruction. There is a dual nature here, with the moon in Gemini. Ardra is also related to the thinking mind which can lead to higher consciousness after the storms of life. This too is shown by the teardrop. Through our tears and beyond our suffering we begin to see with more clarity.
The new moon is located in the sign of Gemini. Gemini is connected to the 3rd sign of the natural zodiac and ruled by the winged messenger, Mercury. Expect there to be volumes of information coming and going. For Gemini, there is no such thing as “information overload”. None the less, some of us may feel like we are having a circuit outage. Mars and Mercury will be traveling near each other along with the Sun and Moon. This means there is a lot of planetary energy in the sign of Gemini resulting in chaotic confusion with communications! Mars and Mercury are not friendly to each other, causing disturbance, arguments, and disagreements. It may feel a bit like having a house full of people and no one is getting along.
Knowing this ahead of time is the advantage to knowing astrology. You may be thinking, What is the most beneficial constructive way to use this kind of energy? It is good for creating. Albert Einsteins ascendant sign was Gemini and in the nakshatra of Ardra. He is an example of knowing how to use this powerful energy for creating. To say it another way, he knew how to harness the energy of his mind.
Here’s a tip to help you: Take 3 deep breaths. This helps to clear your mind. Your breath and your mind are intimately linked. Limit the amount of technology and communications you are taking in around this time. Observing your thoughts and holding positive thoughts will help you. You are the manager of your mind. With every thought you are creating.
June 23rd is the exact date of the new moon. If you have natal planets near the degrees of the new moon (8 degrees) you may experience this more intensely. This is a good time for creativity. It is also very good for being aware of your thoughts. With every thought, you are creating. Creating with mindful awareness is the most positive way to use this energy.
You have an Albert Einstein within you. Now is the time.
