Saturn moved into Virgo on September 2, 2007 to stay for two years. When Saturn moves through an area of your chart it brings up challenges related to that sign's energy in your life. The house where Saturn transits is demanding attention, it is a contracting energy, expecting you to go inward before expanding outward.
The theme is "Get your ducks in a row and deal with this before taking on more."
The last time Saturn was in Virgo? August 1978-October 1980.
You can read more about this energy here- Saturn in Virgo and work with this via journaling and SoulCollage process here Virgo Journal PDF.
Gemini New Moon SoulCollage® challenge:
Gemini deals with issues of communication, black and white thinking.
Keep in mind that the seeds planted (hopes, wishes and dreams) at the Aries New Moon are now communicating with you in your day-to-day life, you'll see what's holding you back, what's keeping you stuck related how you think; how do you face life issues coming your way.
Its all about communication. . . This month we deal with the archetypal energies of the Wind. Airy Gemini deals with all forms of communication...how you think that affects how you speak. Inspirations for your Gemini SoulCollage® may be related to:
The principle that guides the Way of the Visionary is telling the truth without blame or judgment. When we express the inner Visionary we know and communicate our creative purpose and life dream, act from our authentic self, are truthful and honor the four ways of seeing.- Angeles Arrien from The Four Fold Way
This New Moon in Gemini is about:
Transportation, motion/activity- short trips, restless energy, excitability
Learning- formal education, print media, the Internet, curiosity
Communication- writing, speaking, effective listening, understanding different opinions.
Shadow communication- chatter, gossip with the ability to make someone's day or ruin it. Black and white thinking..I'm right, you're wrong- lack of middle ground.
Logic/cleverness, Ingenuity, Mental Processes
Positive daily interactions- tact, quick thinking, wittiness, calming mental activity.
Siblings and the community-brothers and sisters, neighbors, schoolmates, roommates.
Health of hands, wrists, arms and shoulders, the nervous system, the lungs, breathing, hay fever.
Elemental force- the Wind.
At the time of the new moon in Gemini we are moving into a 40 day~ 40 night vision quest. In the old days we'd check ourselves into a monastery.  We are called to undergo this task in our work-a-day world.
Can we integrate and be catalysts for change- through our ability to dream in this reality? This is a time of reflection, renovation and restoration.
During this new moon cycle you are entering a profound time of change as together we enter consciously a 40 day, 40 night experience where we witness our past, present and future self on this new moon in Gemini.
