Mercury in Gemini till 11 July — “The Epiphany”
Mercury moved in to Gemini on 3rd May and due to Mercury retrograde coming towards end of May, this journey of Mercury through its finest Gemini would be 9 weeks long ending on 11th July. Mercury symbol of our mind and our thought process was going through slow and steady process of Taurean reality checks before this. But now in its own sign, Mercury feels a lot more strong and more frisky, performing brilliantly, opening new doors of thought forms. One of those thought forms open the door this week of our mind through an epiphany.

Mercury’s transit in Gemini makes us curious about life and its possibilities, opens us up to new ideas and experiences. Our minds are quick and communication much more lively. We could use this 9 week process to learn, pick up a skill, enjoy movement — walking pacing running any move really, discover the local community on foot to open our minds to new possibilities, naming things, acquiring a new language skill, make connections, quench your curiosity of life.
This is left brain activation.
It’s opposite of Mercury in Sagittarius so it urges us to focus on snippets, small moments and immediate environment versus trying to find a bigger picture or long term plan. It’s the theme of 2021 with north node in Gemini — focus on making things, situations, life simple and take it in bite size. Don’t belong to a cult belong to an intelligent thought form based on information you have on hand. Future unfolding might be out of our hand but the current moment is something we right now hold the ownership of.
As Mercury in Gemini now comes with north node and south node on the opposite end, its a period where we would be required to relinquish one or more rigid belief about our life and our circumstances, release some fixed idea or interest and change course as its a mutable sign. When our mind is mutable, we change our mind about things and we are moving towards the Mercury retrograde when we would change our mind about things after 28 May further.
Different perspective would be shown to us about the events of the past few weeks.
Chiron is reaching out to this inquisitive mind, saying your healing is in moving forward and not in looking back. If our old wounds or our upbringing has kept our sense of exploration in cage, you would experience you banging against that cage like you fighting against your own old impulses and upbringing. The fear and hurt that stopped our sense of adventure or exploration comes to focus to talk through them and walk away from, grow out of. Our throat chakra is in focus here — what blocks it, what doesn’t allow us to express ourselves freely when we need and voice our choices. What doesn’t let our heart sing… out loud.
Mind over matter we work to overcome it through this new thought process and new mindset.
It’s not going to be a short process we have time till 11th July when this thought form and new experiences take form through a process of going back and forth.
This week especially, there could be a fated encounter or a new snippet or a social media post or a meeting a connection which suddenly wakes you up to the cage or the fact that you are meant to move forward from here.
This is the week of epiphanies, the aha moments as they are called to “unstuck” us from old thought process of life.
It’s also a playing ground for us to move out of early conditioning of our mind — can we show to ourselves that we could move out of an old thought pattern ? Can we move out of an old belief that it is better to hide or deny what we truly think and feel ? Thoughts and feelings that are suppressed and disallowed come into focus as some sort of psychological congestion is being unclogged. Movement of the mind and thought is encouraged and cultivated. This is positive conditioning of the mind and deconditioning old though patterns may not feel easy but its the only way forward.
Rise above old thought forms.
Mercury and North node or rahu are meeting at the degree of “Newly Opened Lands” — there could be power and joy in thinking, visualizing, writing, drawing, discussing new beginnings which might be a bit ahead but still your mind can almost visualize how it’s supposed to be. Releasing some burden of old thought makes it easier to breath in that vision, live it in the minds, we must live it in our mind. It’s the unexperienced, undiscovered, unexplored field of potential. The potential we have been waiting to open up to, where the skilled parts of our brain and body is allowed full freedom by our own self to play out.
North node experiences are very unique to each person and their own life karma. So its a fated vision or words or thought that comes to you which is very unique to you and you only.
The finger drops on the right line in the book sitting on your shelf for years, a stranger says a thing, we read a hurtful article in newspaper or social media, we see someone in our neighbourhood and it opens our mind, you watch a comedy & it opens you up, you spend time with a child or younger one & they say something meaningful, you change your immediate surroundings & that clicks calls you — each epiphany is unique and so is the road to that epiphany.
Not just that till 17th May as Mercury is reaching its longest elongation, a phase of gaining perspective due to distance — we would gain a unique perspective on past events especially events since February which would help us in the move forward.
It’s a virgin field of consciousness which just shifts your perspective and opens a gate of mind, previously closed to this possibility. It reconnects you to your mind with a clarity not experienced before. There is harmony of our own body in this, openness to life, innocence of heart who springs anew ready for a new ideal. You are now facing unfamiliar. Nothing is a sure shot but you want to try this thought form, you want to follow through on this train of thought and idea. Every step you move forward requires you to rise to the occasion where you don’t slip back in the old mind and old thought process. You will fall rise up again in this process till end of this Mercury cycle (11 July).
But You not only separate yourself from your past, you also distinguish your thinking pattern from that of the collective in this cycle.
You have opportunity this week to formulate this vision, we have Saturn meet Mercury in a positive aspect on 12th, we have opportunity to put form to this thought process, see it play out in physical world, see some proof of it or get an assurance on it through an experience of life or through another person who has experienced it. It solidifies our mind that we are going in the right direction and might give us capability to get some supporters on the way to it.
Do not back down, do not disappoint your our mind once it shows you a different form of thinking, we need not prove to anyone but ourselves that we can move forward differently resulting in a different outcome that we have been looking for.
Do share with me your personal “epiphany”
