2005 for Gemini

by Robert Wilkinson

During your radical self-redefinition of 2000-02 some very insecure feelings created the need to be more practical about which habits created problems in your life. You learned to conserve energy and stop freaking out about your perceived power, or lack of it. You had to face fact and fulfill obligations, and in the process let go of over-sensitivity and learned how to be as cheerful as possible

During that time you realized certain limitations, and how you responded will shape your next 28 years. You had to show maturity and a sense of responsibility, and though it seemed very tiring or draining, it showed you your way of power and regeneration. From 2002 through this Summer, you've been redefining your values and relationship to resources, material and non-material. Though you've experienced an uncharacteristic insecurity, be assured that if you did the right thing, you not only have nothing to worry about, but your future is very bright, if unpredictable.

The unpredictability is due to Uranus in early Pisces, square to late May and early June Geminis. You're going through power surges, emotional and nervous tangents, and trying to find a way to express your genius or uniqueness in a way that makes sense without getting too scattered, worried, critical, or nit-picky. Jupiter is showing your group how to enjoy themselves within a new rhythm or ideal, so put it together within the larger picture and stop being so eccentric for its own sake. Also, any irritability is forcing your toward an understanding, so be patient as you explore the subtleties and nuances. Your understanding should be crystal clear by June.

Pluto will continue to oppose your sign for a while. While Uranus is most stressful to those born between May 21 and June 3, Pluto is confronting those born around mid-June. As I told you last year, whenever Pluto opposes anything in your chart, expect dramatic reactions from others to any hidden attitudes or coercions lurking in your subconscious. Reform whatever you need to within yourself through purifying any negativity into efficient action taken on behalf of some larger motive. As with the past 2 years, be more loving and warm and less extreme or argumentative, even with yourself!

Pluto challenges you to claim your vision even if you're opposed, but not use coercive methods with others or you've found yourself furiously resisted. The task has been to find a sense of self-confidence in the midst of the general chaos and instability, and not to fumble the great truths you have been glimpsing. This is the time when your self-discipline and deep insights can make you a pioneer in some larger group movement or social-transformative effort.

Your polarization with Pluto can be resolved using the subtle but powerful Neptune in Aquarius wisely. Neptune is leading you to a spontaneous intuition allowing you to know what's going on in the larger collective consciousness. This vaster understanding can balance and smooth out some things within you, offering a new rhythm of life, play, creativity and more innovative and satisfying relationships. You're learning how to express your heart. Examine your buy-in to life. Try to establish harmony or balance with children and in pleasures. Be moderate in your assessments.

For all Geminis, the first 9 months of 2005 challenges you to become more natural in your self-expression, be creative and spontaneous, and play. This can also help you resolve and deal with any extreme energies you're having trouble with thanks to Pluto in Sagittarius. You can now have a lot of fun if you're oriented in the right direction and have a good attitude. Though you're still re-defining your relationship to money, resources, and how your use what you value, be sensitive, play it conservatively, and wait for August, as many things will change then, showing you what you really value versus what you thought you valued.

For May Geminis, continuing last year's theme, you're in maximum revolutionary mode, so surrender to the inevitable adventure and freedom awaiting you when you get over the past. Stop making alibis for non-action, and find your inner values which life will reward consistently. Rise to some emergency, develop your social intuition, and be wholehearted in pursuing the goals that really matter to you.

A lot of the problem is a lack of faith in the middle of the dualities and uncertainty. Get a practical discipline, a larger view, more education, and a sense of humor. You may have it better than you're experiencing right now, due to nervous surges and peculiar or vague panics. Decrease stimulants and obsessive thinking and keep your communications with your allies open since they can help you smooth things out (Jupiter and Neptune both trine your Sun!)

Mars can create hassles, or the need for some form of right action without being hassled, in early January, early March, the first half of May, and mid-August through mid-November. January gave a mid-course adjustment, while May challenges you to bring things to fulfillment, without agitation or haste. You have a new 2 year cycle beginning late February-early March 2006, so begin your harvest late this year, finish out what you began Spring 2004, and meditate in seclusion most of late 2005. It's a great time for ending old patterns of stubbornness, especially after mid-August.

For June Geminis, your 2 year cycle began either April or early May 2004. Because you're still redefining yourself emotionally through the first half of 2005, examine your long-term needs, and be sensitive to regeneration habits that could serve you if you can stop arguing both sides of any change. You're still preparing for your public sector revolution to come, last year you were shown the platform for your next 7 years of accomplishment.

Keep finding you most ideal place of greatest service to your world, harmonize your way of relating to others, and be fair, just, and reasonable in all partnership negotiations. Mars can create hassles, or the need for some form of right action without being hassled, From February 6-22, the first half of May, and mid-July 2005. Avoid stubborn behavior that can only bring sorrow between mid-August and mid-November.
