It’s the last full moon of 2021!
The Gemini Full Moon, also known as the Cold Moon, will occur late this Saturday evening, marking the last lunar event of the year.
A Gemini full moon is a great time to release blockages and unhealthy patterns surrounding communication and/or outdated modes of mental processing (because Gemini rules communication and intellect).
This is also a time where we can release mental clutter, confusion and trauma that causes us to suppress verbalizing our thoughts, giving us an opportunity to clear all of the mess in our heads so that we can welcome the New Year with a clear mind.
Additionally, this cosmic event gives us the chance to release any blockages, fears and patterns dealing with words said that have created fears, doubts and insecurities, and helps us release any blocks preventing us from communicating clearly and forming our feelings into thoughts.
There are a lot of other astrological placements occurring alongside this full moon, but I’m just going to note one of the strongest aspects, which is Venus conjuct Pluto.
This can cause big changes in the realm of romance, finances, priorities, and power, which can show up through power imbalances, your shadow, manipulation and transparency (or lack thereof).
Any areas of our life where we have been dishonest or deceiving will catch up to us now. If we are playing games or trying to manipulate people or situations, things could be brought to the light. Alternatively, if others are trying to run game on you, you might finally wise up to their antics. others are trying to deceive or take advantage of us, we could wise up.
Some of this won’t fully come to light until the top of next year, so for now, just focus on being effective with your communication and practicing the pause when necessary. Avoid any impulses to react or make assumptions without fully knowing what’s going on.
As I’ve mentioned, with Full Moon rituals, we release. We do this by writing down intentions on what we’re releasing and burning the paper (safely) to transmute the energy. You can write any intentions you want, but I’ve included some below that align with the energy of the Gemini Full Moon to get you started.
Please make sure to write your intentions in present tense. No “I will” or “I want” or “I’m going to,” as these phrases set the intention on the longing for whatever you’re releasing, instead of the actual release.
Once you’re done writing your intentions, it is very important to include the full closing clause at the end, written by one of my favorite astrologers Danielle Ayoka.
You have from today until Tuesday to complete this ritual, with Saturday being when the energy is at its peak.
Gemini Full Moon Intentions (written on a piece of paper that you will burn afterwards):
I release all blockages, fears, patterns and words I've internalized from my childhood that are creating doubt, fear, and insecurity with speaking my mind.
I release all conditioning, programming, trauma, beliefs, and behaviors that cause me to feel unheard, misunderstood, and unsupported when I communicate.
I release all thoughts, beliefs, patterns, behaviors and trauma that cause me to suppress my words and thoughts.
I release all fears, doubts, trauma and conditioning that causes me to censor my sentiments.
I release all blockages, trauma, patterns, conditioning and fears that stifle my verbal expression.
I release all trauma, patterns and conditioning blocking my ability to verbalize how I feel.
I release all blockages, patterns, conditoning and trauma stifling my ability to communicate through writing.
I release all blockages, patterns, conditioning and beliefs that have created doubts in my abiity to write.
I release all programs, patterns, and conditioning from my upbringing that cause me to feel unsafe and unsettled.
I release all trauma, programs, conditioning, behaviors and beliefs that create internal and external instability.
I release all entities, energies, implants, trauma, programs, thoughtforms, and conditioning creating mental clutter, consciously and unconsciously.
I release all entities, energies, soul contracts and energetic agreements preventing me from having mental clarity and peace of mind.
Closing Clause:
I release all implants, imprints, templates, thought forms, frequencies, energetic agreements, karma, trauma, chords, vibrations and patterns that resonate with the energy associated with my intentions on every layer of my existence, and out of all my chakras, major and minor, all layers of my aura, all of my subtle bodies of energy, my higher and lower self, ego, consciousness and awareness. I declare all these things to be so and in perfect alignment with my greatest and highest good. So it is.
After the clause, burn the paper safely and feel the energy leaving your body. Some of these intentions are heavy, so please make sure to rest and drink water afterwards. Physical symptoms may arise. The process of moving energy is different for everyone.
