Okay, so I’ve been digging into this whole “decan” thing in astrology, and let me tell you, it’s a rabbit hole! Today, I decided to focus on the second decan of Gemini. Gotta start somewhere, right?
Getting Started
First, I pulled up my trusty birth chart. Needed to confirm I actually had planets or points in the second decan of Gemini. If you’re following along, you’ll want to do the same. You basically need to see if you have anything between 10-20 degrees of Gemini.
I discovered I have my Moon in the second decan of Gemini. Interesting! The Moon rules emotions and inner stuff, so this should be revealing.
The Deep Dive
Next, I started hunting for info. I mean, really digging. I grabbed some astrology books, I pored over online articles. And, wow, I got more than I bargained for.
It stated: Each decan of Gemini is ruled by a different planet. The first one is Mercury, as usual. The second one is ruled by Venus. And the Third Decan is ruled by Uranus.
Making it Personal
So, what does this mean for my Moon in the second decan of Gemini? I started piecing things together. My emotions (Moon) are filtered through a Gemini lens (communication, intellect), but with an added layer of Venus influence (harmony, relationships, beauty).
- I realized I tend to intellectualize my feelings – classic Gemini.
- I noticed that I crave harmony and connection in my emotional life, which makes sense with Venus in the mix.
- I began to see how I often seek out beauty and pleasure as a way to soothe my emotions.
Putting It All Together
I spent the rest of the day really thinking about all of this. How does this Venusian influence play out in my everyday life? I started journaling about it, trying to connect the dots. And I gotta say, it felt pretty accurate. I do value beauty and connection in my inner world, maybe more than I realized.
It’s like, my emotions need to be expressed in a way that feels beautiful and harmonious. I don’t like messy emotional outbursts. I want things to be clear, communicated well, and aesthetically pleasing, even when it comes to my feelings. It’s kind of a revelation!
This is a great process, and I’m going to keep the momentum.
