After weeks of working in the gardens I've finally come up for air and realized it was about time I posted!  In addition to seeing clients, the last few months have been a whirlwind. I have a daughter graduating from 8th grade and a son from High School this month which means the end of school year activities have been at an all time high between Jazz Band, Dance recitals, Chorus, Concerts, and helping to make sure they get their assignments done in time, etc. I've also been busy with the Astrological Society of CT as a newly elected board member.

 

We're resurrecting several old gardens that became overgrown while I was preoccupied with raising my teenagers.  There was a time when they adored planting and working in those gardens with us, but their little feet and hands have grown and they are planting "gardens" in their own lives now. It's a pleasure to see them start to come into their fullness.  As my husband and I watched Jesse (dashing in his tux), and his girlfirend (stunning in her gown) take off to the Sr. prom last Friday,  I realize our son has become a man. And.... when did our daughter, our baby, suddenly become a young woman?  It feels good, yet bittersweet at the same time.  They'll return to these old gardens with their own children someday.

 

The Gemini New Moon falls in my 4th house of home conjunct my Venus (in Gemini), which makes this a great time to beautify the home & gardens while enjoying some loving communication with my family. It's also a good time (while allowing time for revision due to Mercury retrograde) for writing and sending out the invitations for the Summer Solstice/Graduation party we're busy planning for later in the month. Mercury goes direct June 20th.

 

The late Dane Rudhyar saw the degree of this Gemini Moon as a symbol for: "Bridging physical space and social distinctions, two people communicate telepathically."  Key:  The capability to transcend the limitations of bodily existence. It is a technique of transcendence.   Have a Peaceful Summer.
