The Last Full Moon of the Year
On December 18th at 11:37 pm EST, we enter the peak of the Gemini Full Moon, the last Full Moon of the year. Full Moons are a time of release, a time of heightened emotion; they are when we are more aware of that which we don't want to see, often referred to as our shadow.
While an awareness of our shadow may be challenging, it is needed so that we can release its power over us. The energy of the Full Moon gives us an opportunity to actually feel it on a much deeper level, which then will force us to work with it.
The more that we work with it, the less control it has over us. When that control is released, we are able to make choices that align with what we want, rather than what we do not.
I read something recently where the writer asserted that people have become too obsessed with healing. And while I don't think that we're supposed to spend every waking moment actively engaged with the healing journey, I do think that it’s important to spend very intentional moments reflecting on what we want to release and what we want to create. And this requires an intentional awareness of our lives.
This is a great opportunity, as the last Full Moon of 2021, to really reflect on the entire year and see where some of our blocks are as well as the progress that we've made. When we get honest with ourselves, we’ll notice our shadow. With that awareness, we can often see that it is the avoidance of our shadow aspects that create our blocks.
If we are able to sit with our shadow - to reflect, understand and honor it - we can see a way around our blocks, rather than continually running into them. It is not that we are trying to remove parts of ourselves, but instead to see them differently.
So now let's get specific with this particular moon energy. Gemini is a sign of communication. It's ruled by Mercury, which is the planet of communication. So the questions we want to be asking ourselves are:
How do we communicate with the world (the people we see, the situations we experience, etc.)?
How do we talk about it?
How do we see it?
How do we react to it?
How do we move our body with it?
How do we exchange energy with it?
What lens are we seeing the world through?
How does that lens hold us captive to a storyline that does not serve?
And then most importantly: is there a way to release that storyline in order to see and experience the world differently?
Alongside the moon in Gemini, the sun is in Sagittarius. Both of which are incredibly voracious, knowledge-seeking signs. They're interactive with the world around us and connected to all the details of getting it right.
While Gemini energy is very specific and detail-oriented, Sagittarian energy is open to seeing the bigger picture. It pushes us to ask how we fit in with the rest of the world and to understand our impact. And there’s an opportunity to work with both of these energies to shift our narrative towards one that aligns with the world we want to experience and see how we fit into it.
The shadow side of these energies is the urge to want to be right. There’s a tendency towards rigidity that might bring up friction and disagreements. So it’s important to constantly look for possibilities to see the world differently.
Please know: this doesn't mean we have to abandon our own principles to fully agree with the other side, but rather simply attempt to soften into seeing another viewpoint. Because when you can see another viewpoint, there’s an opportunity to learn. And when there’s an opportunity to learn, there’s an opportunity to grow and heal.
Now is the time to focus on what it is that we need to release so that we can see a different perspective. This is an important energy to be working with, especially as it's the last Full Moon of the year.
It’s time to clear what no longer serves so we can step into what does serve with the New Moon in January. It’s a beautiful time to grow, evolve and heal.
This Gemini Full Moon offers a beautiful opportunity for us to bring awareness to our shadows.
So let’s make space for something new to grow and welcome in the transformation that is available to us with the powerful energy of this expansive Full Moon.
And that's what I invite you to work with during this
Full Moon in Gemini Workshop.
