  Astrology is a cosmic science. The word Cosmos means order. Everything in our universe is governed by the laws of analogy, i.e., as above so below. Astrology is the body of laws that link the infinitely large and the infinitely small to the Cosmos. Thus, apparent disorder becomes universal harmony. Consequently, human beings cannot be independent of this order and the destiny of humanity as a whole, as well as that of each individual is determined by these laws that rule the universe.
  Individual astrology reveals one’s place in the universe as well as one’s role as an inseparable element of one’s environment. For everything is intertwined and if the stars’ function is to determine the destiny of humanity, each human being’s function is to fulfill his destiny according to his own nature.
  WHAT IS FREE WILL?
  Humans are the only beings on earth that enjoy this privilege. An animal or a plant are totally conditioned and have no power to change their life. However, human beings can only exercise their free will within the limits that have been assigned to them. For freedom is relative and is subjected to the general plan of the universe. Nevertheless, our free will allows us to maximize our potentials and to turn our destiny into a success.
  In an individual birth chart, each planet, each sign, each aspect, represent both psychological characteristics and facts of life. Thus the chart proves to be of capital importance because it reveals our weaknesses and their consequences, but also our strengths which we can use to overcome obstacles and therefore control our destiny.
  CAN ASTROLOGY PREDICT THE FUTURE?
  A natal chart is a snapshot of the cosmos at the time of birth--a cosmic portrait. It is what the universe has to say about who you are what you may become.
  The future is built in the present and all the potentials of our destiny are written in our birth chart. Astrology reveals these possibilities; however, it is up to each one of us to translate them into reality. It is as if, when we were born, we were given a recipe for a dish, with all the ingredients necessary to realize it. Our destiny is the dish, and we can turn it into a success with mediocre ingredients, or into a disaster with first quality ingredients.
  The astrological chart thus becomes the instrument necessary to understand our own nature, to raise our level of consciousness and consequently, to improve our life.

GEMINI, the Juggler

GEMINI, the Juggler 

I think, therefore I am.  (René Descartes)

The Sun enters the sign of Gemini on May 21st and will leave on June 21st, the last day of Spring. The third sign of the zodiac, Gemini is a dual sign, rightly symbolized by the Twins. It is ruled by Mercury, the Quick-Silver planet. In the physical body it represents the shoulders, the lungs, arms, hands and the nervous system.

Gemini is the sign of teenage years, when we open our eyes to the world and start to explore it, curious about everything and willing to absorb all these wonderful discoveries. It represents the lower mind, as opposed to Sagittarius, the higher mind that leads to spiritual awakening and wisdom.  Gemini is the “butterfly” of the zodiac, hopping from one situation to the next in order to satisfy its insatiable curiosity. It is the most adaptable of all signs, and like a chameleon, becomes, for a short moment, whatever the situation requires it to be. This is why Gemini people are said to have multiple personalities and, in fact, they make very good actors because they can become whoever they want to be.

Gemini is not an emotional sign but an intellectual, air sign. Therefore, those with many planets in Gemini must be dealt with through reason and logic. On the positive side, they can be highly intelligent, quick to understand any abstract concept and communicate it con brio. On the negative side, they can get stuck on unessential details, nag and fuss endlessly, unaware of how difficult they are to cope with.

Because of their youthful appearance (even in old age), their wit, and their great sense of humor, Gemini people are likeable and are very popular among their peers. Contrary to Taurus who wants to possess and be possessed, Gemini people like everyone and find it difficult to love one person at a time (especially Gemini men). They are not very faithful and the more freedom they have in a relationship, the happier they are. However, they need to feel important to someone.

Being the sign of communication, Gemini produces teachers, writers, journalists, salesmen. Gemini people are very mobile and hate static situations. They are nervous and restless and need to be on the go. They have a vivid imagination and come up with great ideas, but lack the persistence necessary to make these ideas reality.

Because they have difficulty in concentrating, the challenge of Gemini is to get their mind under control, through meditation or martial arts (these are very appropriate because they combine control of body and mind).  Gemini people are more subject to nervous breakdowns than any other sign. Too much self-centeredness can be destructive, and Gemini people must forget about themselves and pay more attention to others.
