Mars In Gem Flow

In the midst of the dark moon and the dour imperatives from Capricornia, Mars' move into Gemini late last weekend has delivered some welcome fresh air and fuel for his fire. Ours too darklings, even if the kindling still feels wet and heavy.

This Martian shift is gagging to get moving and needs space to flow and to blow away sodden cobwebs, the dripping hangover of Merc's surreal retrograde. The dark moon delivers the opportunity to release whatever holds you back and consign it to your past. All the better to bend and flex into what lies on the other side of the Aries new moon.

Our finish line, the one we tumble over or slide into at speed, is too our begin again. This start point may feel too soon but trust the timing. Life rarely gives us the recovery and space to refresh that we crave. Instead it teaches us that this point is one and the same.

Days like this are built on surrender and acceptance. Of what is and what isn't anymore. Of the dark night we are farewelling and the new dawn just beyond the near horizon. Greeting each equally and not wasting precious energy fighting the prevailing winds of change.

Let them mess up your hair. Welcome them with open and arms and bend to their potent power, wholly unknown and yet unseen. Submit yourself to the bounty on offer. Your letting go will effortlessly flow into release, making the sacred space your new life demands.

This is an exercise in trust. Rely on the one who never lets you down and is already grinning about what is yet to float to the surface of your life. Park your hope at her feet and put your unbridled faith in her magic. You are one and the same, and she is divine.
