Moon Transit in Gemini

Gemini belongs to Mercury, and the Moon counts Mercury a friend. The friendship runs one way, since Budha counts Chandra an enemy. The stay lasts about two to three days, and the mind grows quick and talkative.

Gemini governs the arms, the hands, speech and short travel. The Moon here scatters attention across many small things, and messages, errands and conversation fill the two days. Sleep breaks more easily than usual.

The nakshatras are Mrigashira, Ardra and Punarvasu. Mrigashira, under Mars, opens with restlessness and search. Ardra, under Rahu, is the least settled stretch and suits difficult technical work. Punarvasu, under Jupiter, closes by restoring calm.

Gochara counts the Moon well in the first, third, sixth, seventh, tenth and eleventh from the natal Moon, which here means Gemini, Aries, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Virgo and Leo Moons. Scorpio Moons meet Chandrashtama and do well to slow down, and Cancer Moons carry it in the twelfth, where expense and travel both rise.

The passage shows how attention behaves when nothing holds it. Choose one task and stay with it for an hour.

Write down what needs remembering.

• Handle correspondence and small errands during these two days.
• Keep one period of silence each day of the passage.
• Avoid signing anything of weight during Ardra.

Counted from the natal Moon, following Phaladeepika. Ashtam Chandra is the Moon in the 8th from the natal Moon. Read the ascendant the same way. Vedha and the birth chart can change the result.
