Gemini monthly horoscope

May 21 – Jun 20 · Air · Mutable · ruled by Mercury

House of Pleasure: the month ahead

The Sun in Libra

The Sun spends most of the month in your 5th house of creativity, so what you make, love and enjoy for its own sake is where your attention and energy naturally collect.

Inner planets

Mercury in Scorpio (your 6th house), Venus retrograde in Scorpio (your 6th house) and Mars in Leo (your 3rd house) set the tone: your thinking and talk, your affections and values and your drive and desire each work through different parts of your life. Venus is retrograde, so review before you commit.

Moon phases

Last Quarter on Oct 3 in Cancer, lighting your 2nd house (money). New Moon on Oct 10 in Libra, lighting your 5th house (creativity). First Quarter on Oct 18 in Capricorn, lighting your 8th house (shared resources). Full Moon on Oct 26 in Taurus, lighting your 12th house (solitude).

Sky events

Sun enters Scorpio on Oct 23. Venus enters Libra on Oct 25. Venus stations retrograde on Oct 3. Pluto stations direct on Oct 16. Mercury stations retrograde on Oct 24.

The long view

Jupiter in Leo (your 3rd house) expands your conversations and errands, while Saturn retrograde in Aries (your 11th house) asks for patience and structure in friendships and community.

Advice

Lean on what comes naturally to Gemini: working quickly, curiously and with a twist of humour. Keep an eye on scattered focus and nervous energy, and make room for romance, creativity and play.
