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.

A dreamy start to the autumnal season is upon you, with your ruling planet (Mercury) in fellow air sign Libra on the 7th. This location for Mercury, plus a new moon in Aries later in the week, could be the creative kick you’ve been needing to reach your dreams. Lovely Venus transits Sagittarius, your opposite on the Zodiac, on October 18th and lights up your relationship sector. Make time to talk things out with a loved one and enjoying their company during the first half of the month. Then, there’s a new moon, Mercury, and the Sun’s transit into Scorpio on the 30th, 24th, and 22nd respectively, which means loads of efficient energy coming your way. Harness this energy by working on small projects, making lists, improving your routine, and settling any social issues.

Your Trax: To reflect your dreamy state at the start of the month, chill out to everyone’s favorite 90’s shoegaze group, Slowdive. If you’re into that, anything by Mazzy Star is an obvious follow-up. Later in the month, with astrological positions in Scorpio you ought to be feeling more theatrical, entertaining, and comfortable speaking. To reflect that, why not give Regina Spektor’s new album, Remember Us To Life, a shot?
