Alhena, the left foot of Pollux, lies in the midst of sidereal Gemini. Alhena is the brand, or mark. Alhena represents "commencement" and inspires us to act on our greater soul truth and purpose. Alhena is a marking stone for the unfoldment of what is ahead. It can indicate a separating of the ways is at hand. Alhena indicates a milestone or a turning point has been reached and indicates the need to get off of the fence of indecision, to drop any hesitation, as the "time is at hand" to go forth anew. As the brand, Alhena also indicate that the time, events, or relations are marked or destined. Alhena may indicate the need to sign a document or legalize a project, involvement, or commitment. It is the consecration of our commitment that anchors the etheric vision of our soul truth into the physical plane to become realized truth. This concretization prepares for a greater event yet to come.
Esoterically, Alhena can involve creating a mark, a specific geometric seal, which allows the starseed link of communication for the arrival and departure of extraterrestrial craft--or for the fulfillment of one's incarnate mission. Alhena is the dividing star of the sign of Gemini and indicates a separation, a leaving, a departure, and a commencement, even an exodus or liftoff. Behaviorally, it is leaving an older or lesser ways of participation, one more associated with mortal, terrestrial, and often fractious and obstreperous, even boisterous ways associated with Castor (embodied by conjoining Mebsuta), to the spiritual maturity of Pollux the ambassador. Alhena requires this transfiguration to embody our true galactic light coding (galactic re-instatement) or to board a high-spectra light vehicle, interstellar craft--the vessel of light within!

Alhena is the mark or brand—here indicating Varuna's arrival to be marking the time to re-establish order out of the chaos on Earth. Alhena is of commencement and indicates a turning point has been reached, a separating of the ways is at hand, that it is time to get off the fence of indecision and take action.
