THIS is ASTROLOGY - 1st and 2nd JUNE ECLIPSES in GEMINI - what do they mean

A partial Solar Eclipse occurs on June 1st, 2011, at 5:03 PM EDT at 11 degrees and 2 minutes of Gemini.


 Its effects can be felt up to six months after the actual date of the eclipse. 


In the Mercury-ruled sign of Gemini, communications, daily interactions, and learning will be a strong focus on a personal level. 


This eclipse is simultaneously  about closure and endings as well as new beginnings regarding all of these matters.


This is a time for improving our communication skills by listening to others and enjoying others' points of view, rather than doggedly seeking to find that one "answer"; taking the time to socialize and enjoy others--whether they are neighbors, friends, family, or acquaintances--just for the simple pleasure of doing so; re-evaluating our communication and social skills by questioning just how much we actually take in information, and communicate in a friendly, non-threatening manner; finding new venues for expressing ourselves and for learning by awakening our own curiosity, and refining our writing, speaking, teaching, and listening skills; adding some mental variety to our lives; beginning a new project that involves writing and/or speaking, or that is in the communications field; and for opening our minds to gathering more information and facts from our environment.


Some of Gemini's "lessons" involve learning to be comfortable with people-- putting them at ease, and feeling at ease ourselves. Instead of communicating with others to prove a point, to come up with an answer to problems, or to get our opinions across, Gemini urges us to truly enjoy the moment. 


By consciously tuning in to positive Gemini energy, we learn that there isn't always an answer, and we become comfortable with that idea. 


As we learn to let ourselves truly listen to others, we learn through others simply by being curious, and we improve our social and communication skills at the same time. 


We open our minds to more information, and we learn to truly enjoy the variety of different personalities around us.


With the potent Gemini energy of the Solar Eclipse, we have the chance to make important changes in our lives that will benefit us well beyond this Moon cycle. For some of us, circumstances are such that we need to pay more attention to these matters. 


Flaws in an important system in our lives are revealed around the time of the eclipse, prompting us to redo or to start fresh. 


Something ends in order for something else to start anew. We may be called to give up something in order to move forward into a new chapter in our lives. Although the "new" may be unrecognizable, it is important to allow the necessary surrender to the unknown.
