Sunday morning, 4th June 2023 at 4h42 BST brings a full Moon at 13 deg 18’ Sagittarius opposing the Sun in Gemini. Gemini is an Air sign that wants to learn, communicate and make connections. Sagittarius is fiery and focused on the bigger picture; Sag is searching for adventure, meaning and faith.

This Moon wants to shake us out of the Gemini obsession with collecting facts and encourage us to trust our intuition. This is a Moon for positivity and for following our vision. While the Sun in Gemini is gathering data, straight-talking Sagittarius will shoot straight to the heart of the matter.

Full Moons are the culmination of a cycle, a harvest time. This opposition is asking us to balance our desire to know and connect (Gemini) with our desire to grow and expand (Sagittarius). The inherent restlessness of these two signs is currently lessened by both their rulers being in the sensual and earthy sign of Taurus. Taurus links this full Moon to nature, our bodies, resources, and finance. It’s a business-like sign which demands that our ideas and visions are grounded in reality and work in the material world.

With Gemini ruler Mercury meeting Uranus later the same day at 20 deg Taurus there might be an ‘Aha!’ moment arising from a surprising event or from the intervention of science or technology. Uranus might bring an innovative idea into the mix through communication or friends. You might have a flash of inspiration.

In fact, friends could be key this weekend and especially if you know people with Sagittarius or Gemini placements in their birth charts. Don’t hesitate to invite them over. Plan to get them out into the countryside for a walk or picnic, weather permitting, you might be surprised about the direction the conversation takes and what you find answers to.

Donald Trump was born on a Sagittarius Full Moon and there is no doubt that he likes to talk, switching from grand sweeping statements to minute detail with speed and ease. The lack of Earth in his birth chart suggests his obsession with money, business and the physical body while the Leo Ascendant confirms that it is all about him.
