New Moon Solar Eclipse in Gemini, June 1, 2011

© Ron Cameron

It is the closest aspect in a chart that sets the tone and for the New Moon at 11° 02′ Gemini on 1 June 2011 at 2:03 PM PDT, this is a trine between the New Moon and Saturn in Libra offering stability without rigidity. Nice!

This is a good time to review the ease with which we as astrologers slip into attaching values to certain aspects, i.e. squares are “bad” and trines are “good.” I know I benefit greatly from a natal Sun-Saturn square, because it helps keep my Sun-Uranus trine grounded. Hard aspects, like pain, get our attention and [...]
