Transit Watch: New Moon in Gemini – June 19, 2012 – Mental Complexity
My eye on the sky.
The new moon in Gemini takes place in the early morning on June 19th @ 28 degrees. This is going to be a weird one, but first, the standard stuff…
The new moon represents a new beginning. It’s recommended you set an intention that pertains to the sign of the new moon and the house where it falls.
The new Moon falls in my 6th house (work, daily, routine, health). Both the house and the sign (Gemini) are Mercury-ruled, so this would be a day to start a walking or a writing regimen, or even to marry the two. Since I know that movement helps me think, I could set the intention to get up in the morning and go for a walk (Mercury) before work (6th). You’ll want to come up with something similar using your own chart.
As for the quirk and the complexity involved here, the New Moon squares Mars. That spells mental challenge and possible verbal attacks but frankly, I don’t think it will be as bad as we’ve seen and will see in the weeks prior. This is partly because there are fewer indications of that, but it’s also because the New Moon aspects other bodies, which will bleed out the energy in other ways. It’s the difference between having a couple fighting in a bar as compared to most every couple in a bar, fighting.
One of the outlets is an aspect from the New Moon to Uranus. When you have Mercury (Gemini) mashed with Uranus, genius ideas are possible but so are kooky ideas. If ideas do come, they’re likely to leave just as quickly so be ready to write them down. There is not a tight orb here but the connection is there.
The New Moon also opposes Pluto. Here again, it’s not a tight orb but it is in effect. Communications may come from the subconscious, yours or theirs. As an example, my husband drops his guard at times and says thing that blow me away. I live for these occasions as it’s always so interesting (Gemini) when his depth, speaks.
Saturn in Libra trines the New Moon, as does Neptune in Pisces, so you get the idea here. It will be extremely varied out there and I am not sure how this will play. Some people will be richly rewarded, I’m sure. But to others, this will be like opening the box of a 1000 piece puzzle, not that appealing!

In my fourth conjunct my Saturn which plays on just about everything in my chart. I’m soooo excited!!! This is going to be a good one!
It will be in my 2nd house. I do like things that are mentally complex! Though, I’m not sure I need complexity around my finances.
It’s in my tenth in an out of sign conjunction to my Sun/Juno and exactly trine natal Uranus in my 2nd.
I do enjoy complexity and solving problems.
this new moon is in my 4th house. day before my guess date for the baby. its my mothers birthday and also conjunct my partners gem moon. i’m guessing baby will be born then. only like right. my adoptive mother is a gemini. both my biological father and my partner have gemini moons!
i LOVE things that are mentally complex, not superficially so though. meaning when people make stuff more complicated than it is rather than having an intellecutual complexity inherent that requires critical thinking.
Exactly conjunct my ascendant. I do love a good puzzle.
The new moon falls in my 9th house. Interestingly, I get to meet my doctor and have my first ultra sound scheduled for my pregnancy on June 19. Maybe this moon will help me figure out where on earth I’m going to have this baby since it’s all up in the air right now!
It is extact my rising sign at 28 Gemini. I am definately feeling an increase in mental activity.
eek!
It’s in my 10th conjunct my natal saturn (29 gem). It is my goal to make my hobby of photography a business venture for myself (and eventually possibly my daughter.) Some time ago, my camera took a poop. and….I need the camera to take the pictures to make the supplemental $ to buy the new camera, not to mention the computer which can handle the photo editing tools. (chasing my tail) A friend of mine has been kind enough to let me borrow her extra dslr camera, however, I have gigs that I can take, but restricted use of the equipment due to circumstances. Opportunities that are being missed. I feel as though I’m spinning my tires.
BUT, I will keep networking and spinning my tires until the ground is ready for me to take off.
Cap rules my 5th house, sooooo, MAYBE…just MAYBE…this new moon will have my name written all over it
)
My 3rd, square pluto. Wonderful.
Almost to the point where i’m going to delete (amputate) the non-friends i have on facebook. How pluto is that?
It’ll be the hs friends who get the chop.
I’ll have to take a look at the rest of those transits…
Conjuct my MC and Mercury, hope for good. I’m looking for a new job.
New moon in the 12th, as is everything else right now, yuk
Tightly conjunct my Ascendant. Want to start anew. Will set my intention right there.
My 8th house…yes, as a Gem sun I do like mentally challenging things
Out of sign conjunct my moon.
I just drew myself a little diagram: this means a loose grand cross with my moon being sq by Uranus & Mars & opposed by Pluto.
Aaand the trine with Saturn & Neptune which will hopefully mitigate & not delude.
Only thing is I’m feeling rather tired of puzzles, would rather like some answers now please.
Or could I think of this as actually bringing out the puzzle pieces for me to play with to get to the answers.
in my 12th house almost conjunct my Ascendant.
Not too sure yet how that will turn out. Puzzle!!!!
12th house exact on my AC…I’m writing like a fiend..and interestingly enough (considering the above posts) wrote a poem yesterday entitled Puzzles. Lots of pieces to gather from where they were strewn..
Just noticed that Mars also leaves its shadow a few hours after the moon is new (!). Blast off!
It’s my birthday and it will conjunct my sun at my 3rd house.. I’m on the spotlight that day
having dinner with my parents, daughter and sister
I’m putting my most beautiful clothes (got to use my most colorful shirt, pink sandals and suitcase. I’m using a rose hairpin.).
There is a spoiled surprise: Someone will be offering me a puzzle at my birthday dinner! But I love them
It falls in my 5th Square my Mercury Jupiter Pisces 2nd.
I’m looking forward to see how that’s going to manifest. Hopefully, a fun job? I’d better buy some kind of lottery ticket.
I have my chart and know where all my planets are …but how do I calculate where the new moon falls with that?
Sorry for probably silly question….

New moon’s in my 6th parked on my natal Uranus. Uranus sextile’s my 7th and 8th H natals. So, there’s plenty there. Setting the intention to walk and write fits for me.
Thanks, Elsa.
Possibly a good time for me to get pregnant… with twins (hopefully)…
This moon conjuncts my natal sun in the 4th house by less than half a degree on my birthday. I am between homes and hope this is good news since I have some positive aspects with other natal planets. Have been feeling vulnerable and exposed lately!
Six degrees away from Jupiter in my 12th house.
Gemini is intercepted though, so I’m still working on figuring out how this will affect me, although I can say that my intuition is working overtime lately. Thoughts?
Mental complexity is attractive, unless I’m stressed.
I just realized that this new moon will conj my IC, and the following full moon will conj my natal moon.
It falls in my 10th house and thank goodness I need all the help there I can get! I looove complexity — pluto, sun, saturn, mercury in scorpio in the third!
more 12th house…*sigh*

It will be in my 10th/11th house. I still haven’t figured out the houses part but I’ve decided to start practicing French grammar from that day throughout the entire summer so I can be well prepared for the college admission exam. I’ve been delaying it long enough.
I like mentally complex things and I wonder what awaits me with the New Moon being so close to my Moon.
