Tarot: The Moon The Lovers

A mutable square of water and air

Pisces is mutable water ruled by Jupiter, with Neptune as co-ruler, and the Sun holds no dignity there. Gemini is mutable air ruled by Mercury, and the Moon holds no dignity in it either. Mercury is in both detriment and fall in Pisces, so the Moon's ruler is uncomfortable in the Sun's sign. The signs are three apart, a square, the angle of friction that produces effort, and they share the mutable mode, so both flex and neither anchors. The Moon stood 61° to 119° ahead of the Sun, which allows the crescent and first quarter phases in Rudhyar's cycle: a push away from the past, then a crisis in action. Tarot gives the Sun The Moon and the Moon The Lovers.

Words for what has no words

You meet in a hunger to understand. The Pisces Sun feels more than it can say, and the Gemini Moon needs to say it, and each frustrates the other. Mercury, the ruler of the Moon, does not work well in Pisces, so the logic of the mind runs into the logic of the tide. You may say something in a conversation that you only understand a day later. In the crescent phase the Moon is breaking from the past and in the first quarter it faces a decision, so you may feel pressed to choose before you have found the words.

Talk, tenderness and mixed signals

You are curious and affectionate, easily drawn to someone who is funny, inventive and a little elusive. You may say one thing and feel another, and a partner may be unsure which to believe. You need a partner who is gentle and patient with your talk, who asks follow-up questions and who accepts that a feeling may take a day to be named. Earth and water partners can steady the Sun, air and fire partners match the Moon. Say what you are not sure of: uncertainty stated plainly is clearer than a confident guess.

Communicating with imagination

You tend to do well in work that joins imagination with language: writing, storytelling, film, music, teaching, counselling, translation, advertising with a conscience, social media with care, healing arts. Pisces brings the image and Gemini the sentence. You may enjoy varied work and several short projects. The risk is a lack of focus and a pile of drafts. Set a finish date and a reader for each. These are tendencies of temperament and no recommendation for any career.

Two minds, two moods

A mutable square gives two flexible lights and no fixed point. You may feel differently by the hour, change plans easily and absorb the opinions of the last person you spoke to. The nerves are exposed and rest comes late. The tradition links Gemini to the lungs, arms and nervous system and Pisces to the feet and lymph, so stress is said to show in sleep, breath and restlessness. That is a pattern, not a prediction, and it sits beside professional care. Intuition and analysis argue, and neither wins until you give one the final word.

Working with it

Write for ten minutes at night without editing. Name a feeling in one word before you try to explain it. Keep a single notebook for ideas and one for feelings. Breathe slowly and deliberately when the mind speeds up. Limit the number of voices you listen to when you have a decision. Use the first quarter Moon each month to make one choice you have been delaying. Read aloud to someone, since your two lights both like a listener.

Questions to reflect on

What feeling have you not yet found a word for?
Whose opinion do you hold that you did not choose?
Which of your drafts needs a reader?
When do you change the subject, and what is under it?
