It’s a lot out there. Gemini season is always like this, with comings, goings, summer plans being made. It’s also a one year (new beginnings) and year of the fire horse. That’s just how it sounds, requiring no meaningful reinterpretation from me. New things are advancing forward, passionately, quickly.
As the once impossible becomes increasingly possible, how fitting then for this Sagittarius Full Moon moment when we are encouraged to expand our vision and understanding?
What stance or perspective is it time for you to rethink?
This period is about grounded understanding; grounded in wisdom and reflective of the true reality in which you find yourself.
AI Controversy
Right now, nothing is more controversial than AI, which is one reason why I wanted to talk with my bestie Alice on the Soft Human Voice podcast. The other is that Alice is a wise guide for this moment. She began introducing me to AI way before this cultural conversation began. I remember sitting in a coffee shop years ago, listening to her plans for transforming her work using AI.
In the podcast, which will air Monday morning, fingers crossed (!), Alice reminds us that while it’s going to be impossible to keep up with all the new possibilities AI is creating, it’s vital to understand that no matter how you feel about it, this revolution is happening. We also spoke about the shadow and light of AI, and the necessity of understanding our place and power here.
Revolutionize Your Understanding
AI is definitely one fire chariot taking us to new places this year, operating in the realm of ideas and putting them into actionable things in ways we haven’t been able to do before.
As I mentioned on the podcast, thanks to Claude, I am now coding. Wow! I’m discovering new creative agency, which makes me feel more efficient and empowered. John, who is a cancer researcher, is making tremendous headway in projects that have been stymied for almost a decade. As a public servant, he is using AI for the good of all.
It’s important to underscore that just like many things in life, AI will do good and create light and healing, but only in the hands and minds of those who choose to use it this way.
Every new paradigm is a bit chaotic at first. There will be learning curves, consequential fallout, and necessary pivots. There will be choices to make. Not the least of which is recognizing that your values, and everyone’s, are what’s steering the chariot. You can be at the helm of this revolution. You can grab the reins and direct it, or you can let the journey be out of your hands.
Slow Your Roll
Which brings me to the Soft Nudge. Fast Gemini energies cover a lot of ground. Yet too much speed, moving through things too quickly, can bring disorientation, oversight issues, and even sloppiness. Sagittarius’ shadow is being a bit too footloose and fancy free.
With Saturn in Aries sextile/trine this lunation, it’s time to mature your perspective. Slow your roll. Don’t be so quick to dismiss. Take some time to digest information. Listen to the podcast. Allow what’s happening out there to unfold as comprehensive understanding instead of sound bites. We all know there are voices out there. The most vital one to listen to is inside you.
Intuitive Invitation: Listen Inward
When voices are loud and carry far and wide, it is challenging to turn away from all the excitement being generated and choose to listen inward instead.
Yet this is why it’s become ever more necessary to truly know your own mind and thoughts via your true self connection. Not to mention, possible.
At this dynamic full moon, take a few minutes to shut your external psychic doors and listen inward, to your body, heart, voice.
If you feel mental stress: Where can you expand your understanding in ways that feel connected to your values? What perspectives have you outgrown?
Personally, I find that the faster things move outside, the more I need to slow myself from the inside. If you resonate with this, you may enjoy experimenting with my qigong or energy practices. They are balancing and restorative.
