Gemini
Gemini (Ruling Planet: Mercury; Element: Air) Out of all the signs, you, Gemini, are the most communicative, on top of being the most clever. The Twins are flexible; you can adjust to any situation. Your enthusiasm for a variety of subjects makes you versatile and charming, but it’s hard for you to stay dedicated to one thing for a long time, and you tend to bite off more than you can chew. You suffer from constant FOMO, and you can’t make a decision to save your life.
Mercury’s presence in Capricorn will bring some intense convos to the start of your month– use your intellectual intuition to navigate them. When this planet turns retrograde on the 19th, you’ll experience the usual miscommunications and delays, but Mercury in retrograde also gives you the chance to slow down and figure out what you really want right now. Venus brings good vibes when it shifts into fellow air sign Aquarius on the 7th, especially if you’re in the business of learning and traveling. Then, a full moon in your sign occurs on the 13th, and you’ll feel more sensitive than usual, but also more in the loop when it comes to your social scene. If you’ve been waiting for a partnership to take off, it’s likely that it’ll happen during this new moon. Not long after, Pisces influences decision-maker planet Mars, having you pursue your goals more aggressively and creatively– people will take notice. Lastly, the Sun and a new moon both occur in Capricorn in the last chunk of the year. With Mercury in retrograde in this same sign, it would be wise to reflect on any matters that make you cringe.
Your Trax: Slow down with something you can take to heart, like local singer-songwriter Marissa Nadler’s latest album, Bury Your Name. To match some of the emotional dialogue of the month, Sonny Smith’s contemporary spoken word album, Moods Baby Moods, is worth a concentrated listen, if only for the gorgeous instrumentals.
