As another year journeys toward its end, we embrace the energy of a Gemini full moon. The New Moon in Sagittarius had us diving deep into soul-searching endeavors and seeking knowledge in areas of curiosity. This full moon comes in the middle of our final month of the calendar year to help us move some baggage from our lives that may have been hanging around for way too long.
Full moons are great for releasing what no longer serves us. This means that even if it once served you well but no longer does, it should make an exit from your path. It’s that knowledge of deciphering when you’ve allowed something to surpass its expiration date in your life. You are too beautiful to live with things that are stale, spoiled, and outdated.
Think about how good it feels to get rid of clutter after it’s piled up and taken residence in a corner of your home. There’s a freedom in creating space that was once unavailable because there was too much stuff in the way. Now that corner could hold a beautiful vase of flowers or something else that symbolizes joy for you.
The same goes for our energy. As we move through life, we pick up habits, patterns, other people’s energy, and more that build up and take up space in our aura and spirit. Using the full moons for energetic cleanses has been done for generations around the world because it works. Trust and believe in your energy paired with the ingredients you use for your limpia, and watch magic enter your life.

What Does the 2024 Full Moon in Gemini Mean?
Geminis are social. They are curious about life and others and can be quite loyal. If you are ready to get out there and meet people, the Gemini full moon energy is great for it. Shed the wallflower vibes to gain more confidence in social settings. Meeting new people does not have to be a huge undertaking. Test out the waters by gently dipping your toe in it before diving in fully. Talk to one new person at an event just to give yourself the confidence that you can. The more you do it, the more open you’ll become about interacting with others. After all, Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planet of friendship, communication, and networking.
The twins that represent Gemini symbolize the duality of life. So, working with the Gemini full moon is a great time to find balance. Ditch whatever is pulling too much one way or the other so you can get back to a level playing field. This could be aspects of your own character or a person that you should no longer give your time to.
This full moon also asks us to think before we take action. Geminis can be quite impulsive and indecisive if they don’t pause for a moment before doing so. So, keep that in mind as you dance in this airy energy.
