Mercury is also still out of bounds, and not operating according to the normal rules of behaviour. That said, I have been booking flights because I simply had to and know of another dear astrologer friend who will be moving this week. Sometimes I think this is a bit of silly thing to do, because once we get into the retrograde, it’s likely we’ll discover a slightly improved solution to a current situation. This adds extra urgency to this week as we all try to get things done or sorted before the retrograde starts. Mercury starts his next retrograde on December 19 (next Monday).

The ruler of this Gemini Full Moon is Mercury. Mars helps you get things done so if you do feel restless or impatience this week channel this assertive Mars energy into a pet project or challenge yourself to power through your seasonal to do list.

You might be talking to more people, finding new ways to share your ideas or making a series of quick choices about time and your focus moving forward. These aspects peak midweek, making Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday especially full. The Full Moon brings insight and clarity and then the following aspect to Mars convinces you to quickly take decisive or bold action. The Moon herself heads into an activating trine aspect with Mars in Aquarius in the hours immediately following the Full Moon, adding to the energetic and lively themes. This is due to the placement of Venus and Mars in Aquarius and Jupiter in Libra – the other two air signs – at the time of the Full Moon. That said, this Gemini Full Moon (December 13 or 14 depending on your location) also has stronger than usual air themes.

That serious feeling you might have, or the recognition that you are going to need to be supremely organised, may not vanish anytime soon. So it’s a very Saturn-y type of Full Moon. Why am I still going on about this Sun/Saturn theme when it’s the Full Moon week? Because at the Full Moon the Sun is still conjunct Saturn (albeit separating) AND in the hours immediately preceding the Full Moon the Moon will oppose Saturn. I know I am trying to learn this time management business, somewhat reluctantly! You mean I can’t do all my usual stuff and then just add the holiday whirl onto it? I have to, what, let something go?! Saturn, ARE YOU TRYING TO TELL ME I AM NOT SUPERWOMAN?! It’s a tough lesson but luckily we all have Saturn around to help us with priorities and time management. Yes, even if that means saying no (at least sometimes).

It may be hard to say no to the exciting invitations that come your way, but if the Sun/Saturn aspect got you, (or you are still digesting realisations from last weekend) you may need to learn new ways to manage your time. Ideas fly around – in real life and on line, as if it’s easier to share our thoughts. I’m learning to say no and schedule further in advance to protect my time and energy in the present.Īstrologically, the Gemini Full Moon highlights the air element, which loves to socialise and connect with others. Combine that Sun/Saturn energy with the usual end of year intensity and you can understand why things may be a little heavy, or you may feel stretched thin. This week, perhaps more than usual, is about deadlines and getting things done – or realising where you’ve taken on more than you can manage. We’re also entering this extra busy, buzzy Gemini Full Moon with the hangover from the recent Sun/Saturn conjunction, which may still be weighing on you. In 2016, that’s this week, from December 11 – 17. It’s usually the week where I find myself at the peak of holiday madness – sending greeting cards, shopping for gifts or extra food, and trying to finalise last minute holiday plans.

It always falls somewhere between the last week of November and the third week of December. I find the week of the Gemini Moon to be the busiest week of the holiday season.
