On May 30th, the new moon in Gemini brings us new, sociable energy. This is an excellent time to get reacquainted with family, friends, and neighbors, and become acquainted with new people. Use this new moon to explore your local community and take in new information. If you’ve been feeling kind of sluggish and lacking in communication, particularly because of the Mercury retrograde, this is an excellent time to embrace curiosity.
New Perspectives with the Gemini
One of the great things about this new moon in Gemini is that it brings in new perspectives. Because Gemini is ever curious, if we remain open-minded, there are opportunities for varied insights and viewpoints through our ability to connect to other people. With the new moon in Gemini, we gain the understanding that everyone is an information hub that offers a perspective.

Now, just because we decide to take in these different perspectives doesn’t necessarily mean that we have to agree with them. The mutability and flexibility of the new moon in Gemini allow us to take in information without having to adapt to any one viewpoint. So, under the energy of the new moon in Gemini, we are urged to open ourselves up to new people so that we are able to collect new information that could really influence our perspectives. It is through introducing new energy into our lives that we are able to create the necessary shifts that allow us to learn more.
Improved, New Ways to Communicate
Due to the communication issues of the current Mercury retrograde, this new moon in Gemini shines a light on more effective ways to communicate. As the master of communication, Gemini knows exactly how to use its flexible nature to become social chameleons. This new moon in Gemini brings awareness that if we are able to tap into how other people communicate, we can make others comfortable by mimicking their communication styles. With this ability to adjust to communication styles, we become more effective communicators.
Also, due to the current Mercury retrograde, this new moon in Gemini sheds light on our communication inconsistencies. Mercury is Gemini’s planetary ruler, and when it goes retrograde, communication mix-ups are highly likely. The combination of the new moon Gemini and Mercury retrograde offers us the chance to consider the holes in our communication patterns and make necessary adjustments to become more effective communicators.
Curiosity Keeps Things Fresh
This new moon in Gemini is also a reminder to remain curious. The one thing Gemini can’t stand is boredom. It’s one of the reasons why Gemini is so interested in different people and experiences because it allows for the intake and sharing of different types of information. In order to keep information flowing, a desire to know more is necessary. One of the best ways to do this is to always remain curious.
There is the saying that curiosity killed the cat, but with the new moon in Gemini, curiosity is what keeps us open to information. There is always someone or something that can provide information beyond our own perspective and understanding, and the new moon in Gemini gives us the opportunity to use curiosity to stay in the know.
A New Moon Boost from Mars & Jupiter in Aries
When it comes to new moon energy, it’s nice to see some support from other planets. In the case of this new moon in Gemini, there is a lovely working sextile to both Mars and Jupiter in Aries. The Mars and Jupiter conjunction in Aries brings innovation, independence, and bravery. Aries energy works well with Gemini because of the combination of forwardness and newness associated with Aries and the curiosity and quest for information associated with Gemini. Mars and Jupiter conjunct in Aries supports our ability to strike out on our own and take risks that will ultimately benefit us. The new moon in Gemini will bring in information that potentially supports these new endeavors as represented by Mars and Jupiter in Aries.
It is important to note that while the sextile aspect is positive, it is still a working aspect. This means that we have to put in the effort to get the most out of this new moon in Gemini and Mars/Jupiter in Aries energy. Information that comes up during the new moon in Gemini can be used to get ourselves moving in an independent way courtesy of Mars and Jupiter in Aries. Gemini’s quest for information and Aries’ willingness to make moves create the perfect circumstances to use new information to take beneficial action.
Just Remember…Mercury is Still Retrograde
With all the benefits associated with this new moon in Gemini, it is still important to remember that Gemini’s ruler, Mercury, is retrograde until June 3rd. This creates a situation where the new information coming in can be considered, but we may want to take some time and consider the information that we were receiving before taking any action. As mentioned above, the Mars and Jupiter conjunction in the sign of Aries increases ambition and drive as it relates to information. However, given that the ruler of this new moon (Mercury/Gemini) is retrograde, it would be best to wait until Mercury moves direct on June 3rd to take action on this new coming information.
Even when Mercury moves direct on June 3rd, it will be in the sign of Taurus. Mercury in Taurus prompts us to consider all new information carefully before using Mars and Jupiter in Aries drive to apply the new information from the new moon in Gemini. Know that when we do decide to apply the information, it is done practically thanks to Mercury in Taurus.
So, stay curious and open to all the new information presented at this new moon in Gemini. The information that comes to light has the ability to drive us forward on our new paths successfully.
