Gemini

gemini1Amelia’s horoscope: Your keyword for the new moon is empathy. Lady Luna is in your fourth house of emotions, so you’re being called to really feel things. You’re usually lost in your thoughts, but this month, take some time to connect with your heart—and the hearts of the people around you.

Dylan’s advice: Ya got bit by the Virgobug, my friend. You may have that earth-sign itch to be of service to others around this new moon. Eclipses are powerful and allow pathways to closure that will help you move in a more empowered direction. What have you been cutting yourself off from feeling because you have been thinking in overdrive? Let me take a guess: Have you helplessly believed that you can’t make a difference because “nothing matters in the end anyway, we’re all meaningless specks of dust, the human race is inherently wack and irredeemable,” or wished you could just vote for a Giant Meteor for Prez 2016 to End It All Already, et cetera? I’m not going to tell you you’re wrong, or that I’m not projecting my own inner workings perhaps too vividly here—ha!—but I will offer a counterpoint that is 100 percent factual, and it is that you are meaningful and formidable. You can do helpful, powerfully effective things for people who matter to you. Use this new moon, which may be an emotional hurricane, to shut the door on your not unfounded—but ultimately unproductive—sense of helplessness. Connect with others and show an empathetic face to the world. Don’t rationalize yourself out of all the good you can do. Ride the tide of giving a meaningful damn.
