Hello Rainbow tribe. It is the month of my birth and we find ourselves in the 3rd sign of the zodiac.
If you need a reminder about how this new astrological archetype theme works check out the last few newsletters in my blog.
So, the 3rd sign and our theme this month;
Gemini the virtual Travel Writer
Gemini is the 3rd sign and the 1st air sign, which will bring with it a lightness we may all be needing after Taurus, but be careful not to fly away.
Ruled by Mercury, the planet of the mind, thoughts, technology and travel. Being an air sign, the element of thoughts, movement and travel (no other air sign is ruled by Mercury) you can see the double whammy.
Speaking of double, Gemini is the sign of the twins and the glyph is the roman numeral for 2.
As with all of the signs or archetypes there is the light side and the challenging side.
Gemini energy is young, fun, curious, social, witty and smart at its best.
At its worst it is fickle, flighty, ungrounded, quick to gossip, impatient and easily distracted.
I have called Gemini the virtual travel writer this year because it feels important to remember that as much as real travel is fun and exciting, it is far from our only option.
Harnessing Gemini…
Have you seen that there are virtual game drives, virtual museum visits and more?
I am doing guided meditations (I am a Gemini)
which is nothing more than a guided trip to anywhere you want to go.
This is the power of our minds and our imagination.
Meditation at this time is so important to help us create energetic personal space.
In a time where literal personal space is either impossible to find or all you have; meditation offers a space that is whatever you need it to be.
Beach scene, create it.
Magical garden, create it.
Forest, cloud, balanced chakras, water, happy family, tree, perfect health, savannah, tea with your bestie,
anything you need, you can create in your mind.
You are limited only by your imagination and in Gemini season there is no shortage of that.
Having said that, our minds are not all that we need, we are creatures that require community and this too is a huge area of influence for Gemini.
Community during lock down and with social distancing. What does that look like for you?
Communication and technology, how is that feeling to you?
Do you remember the power of the word?
What are you speaking, what are you hearing, what are you surrounded by?
Use the enquiring, mental Gemini energy to ask these questions, but then feel into your heart space and listen to what feels true to you.
You don’t have to believe that narrative if all it creates is fear.
It is your choice.
And when what feels fearful does feel true to you, look at how or what you can do to change it or to feel safe or make a difference for the better.
Be very conscious of the things you are thinking or saying over and over, they are literally creating your reality.
Spotlight Advice
Growing with Gemini
If you are resonating strongly with this Archetype then I am going to give you a few suggestions.
First to enhance the energy, second to sedate the energy and thirdly to enjoy the energy…lets jump in.
Action Steps
1) Enhancing Gemini:
Air signs love to use their minds, so a constructive use of the mind this month would be studying something of interest.
Keep your mind focused on something good rather than letting it run away in the wrong direction. Remember where your attention goes, grows.
By the Same token using affirmations (positive statements) regularly you can keep your mind in the right places and help you to attract what you want rather than what you don’t.
2) Sedating Gemini:
Unhappy air energy becomes scattered and anxious so
getting grounded is very important.
Ironically exercise is calming for Gemini and something easily forgotten.
Another brilliant tool I have already mentioned to calm those busy minds is Meditation.
A reminder that I have a free meditation group for those who are called.
3) Enjoying Gemini:
Creative and playful projects would be great this month.
Journaling is a Gemini dream or even penning that story that has been flitting round your head.
Get writing, get reading, have fun.
Contact me for more info on, personal coaching, healing, yoga or meditation.
I am doing yoga via Zoom for now.

Astrology Buzz
Gemini May 22nd to June 21st breathe, get grounded and express yourself mindfully.
We have said enough about Gemini this month methinks.
Cancer June 22nd to July 22nd this may be a more emotional month and a time for a little self-care.
Cancer is the nurturer, and in fact loves to be home.
So instead of feeling trapped in our homes, we can feel into them as the nurturing cocoons they are.
Full Moon is in Sagittarius on the 5th opposing the Sun in Gemini.
And this is the beginning of eclipse season. The energy is always more intense when it is an eclipse.
The Gemini/Sagittarius axis pushes us to follow through.
Gemini being quick to lose focus and get bored, where the passionate Sagittarius wants to turn all that higher learning into deep wisdom.
How can I use what I have learned for the greater good than just my own?
What or who in my life to I need to release in order to expand my horizons?
See what comes up for you, but whatever it is, it offers you the opportunity to work towards better balance in this realm.
New Moon: May New Moon in the sign of Gemini was on the 22nd.
I hope you set an intention that is in line with the Gemini energy. If not, it is not too late.
Manifesting with the moon is an extremely powerful practice.
Like the word suggests you have to practice it to get results.
What I love is the gentle and cumulative process of moon manifesting.
It does not have to happen all at once, slow and steady.
June Dark Moon in Cancer on the 21st is also an Eclipse and the 2nd of 3 Jupiter-Pluto conjunctions will be almost upon us.
This may be a little to ‘astrological’ for some of you, suffice to say it is gonna be a big one. I would definitely work with your cocoon and how you want to emerge from it.
Red Tent is a magical and ancient lunar practice that helps us use the moon’s rhythms to create harmony, balance and overall well-being in our lives.
This is where we can really teach you moon manifestation and much more.
We are able to support you with this anywhere in the world so please get in touch if you resonate.
Next Red Tent’s;
JUNE – Cancer (Eclipse)
Mon 22nd: Grahamstown 1.30-4.30 pm
Tue 23rd: Port Alfred 1.30-4.30
Wed 24th: Port Alfred 7-10 pm
Crystal picks for June
Gemini Theme
Flourite comes in an array of colours and each works slightly differently.
What they have in common and the reason I chose this stone for Gemini is that they are great at balancing the 2 sides of your brain and helping with concentration and memory.
So, Fluorite will help to strengthen and integrate many of Gemini’s strong points.
Blue Lace Agate on the other hand will be great at sedating and calming the busy Gemini mind.
It helps us to slow our thinking and expressing.
It is the chamomile tea or rescue remedy of the mineral kingdom and as such is very useful for frazzled nervous systems.
Just a reminder that if you do not have these crystals you can use colour to great effect.
Blue lace agate as you can see from the picture is a gentle blue and if you close your eyes and feel yourself surrounded by this blue energy.
Slow steady breaths, cool calm blue all around you…3 to 5 breaths and you can already feel the difference.
Turquoise is a stone for protection and is high in creative energy.
It also helps to detox so this month use it to detox the old thoughts that no longer serve and to make sure what you speak is not toxic.
Aromas of the month
InTune is an amazing doTERRA blend containing Frankincense, Sandalwood, Lime, Ylang ylang, Roman Chamomile, and Patchouli.
It is their focus blend helping us enhance and sustain better focus.
With Gemini being such a quick thinker, the focus aspect can be an issue.
It takes great mindfulness and focus to catch ourselves in old and unhealthy patterns…and even before that to know that they are there.
Why I love InTune so much as a Gemini, is its grounding energy.
This is the option to calm and sedate the excessive Gemini.
This oil is VERY much a part of my toolbox of support.
Wild Orange on the other hand will play into some of Gemini’s fun traits.
If you sniff this you will just smile.
It is cheery and calming all in one. Wild Orange encourages abundance and creativity.
Antidepressant in a bottle and you feel the magic in every juicy drop.
Just a note that though InTune is a doTERRA blend you could use another brand of orange oil or even another citrus as a substitute.
Always get the best quality essential oil that you can afford, and not a synthetic fragrance oil.
This link will show you how doTERRA Wild Orange is sourced
Uses and Blend suggestions:
Ground and Focus – simply roll some doTERRA InTune (it comes in a roller) onto your wrists and behind your ears.
Relax and enjoy – add 5 drops of Wild Orange and 1 drop of Frankincense to a diffuser and let the scent move through the room while colouring, dancing, playing a board game or any relaxing pursuit you choose.
Note: How Fast do Essential oils work?
It takes 22 seconds for the molecules to reach the brain
In 2 minutes, Essential oils will be found in the bloodstream
By 20 minutes they will affect every cell in the body
SAMPLE ALERT – I love to sample for FREE those who are keen to try out my magical oily friends. Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you would like to be sampled.
Remember to write your blends in your blend book so you remember what you liked and what you didn’t.
