GEMINI HOROSCOPE for OCTOBER 2024

GEMINI/GEMINI ASCENDANT

So the New Moon of Oct 3rd is a fab way to begin the month:

In your 5th house, a fabulous part of your chart where you get to play, showing off your creative talent and have fun, doing stuff you enjoy.

And even better, this Moon is a Solar Eclipse! Whatever creative self expression and simple pleasures turn you on right now, could be so powerful to unleash your vitality and affirmative lust for life.

And your ruler Mercury plays a starring role, with Bitch Lilith conjunct this Moon. Your natural intelligence shines through, and Lilith helps to express yourself with fierce authenticity-kind of not giving a fuq what anyone thinks about it.

And the reward is the crew who do get what you’re on about, really appreciate your unique point of view. Especially opposite the Destiny Point in your social sector, where healer Chiron sextiles positive Jupiter in your sign. As such a social butterfly, you get that the more you radiate your own personal confidence, you inspire others to do the same. The better to connect with the tribe/good friends you can have a good time with, and collectively evolve together?

Then Jupiter in your sign retrograde, from Oct 9th until next Feb. Maybe a chance to slow down your usual scatty, multi-tasking pace, trying to do everything at once? For the next few months it could feel nice to align with your meaningful sense of purpose, getting excited about it without having to actually force progress, for the moment?

Meanwhile worth noting that as Jupiter turns retrograde, quintile Venus in your practical 6th house. Just as Venus trine Mars in your 2nd house of personal prosperity is exact. Especially after that creatively inspiring Eclipse, in your creative 5th house. A little bit of focus, being  patient and pragmatic about revealing your gorgeous talent and charm on the day job goes a long way-to effectively monetise whatever you love to do for a living.

Because we need to talk about Mars, digging his heels in your 2nd house for an extended stay until next April. This is where you come to terms with your own values, about whatever matters to you in terms of an autonomous sense of security in the world. Yes this tends to manifest in financial terms-and creating independent wealth, as much as possible is totally a thing here.

But really the point is appreciating your own worth, because being true to yourself matters, in terms of personal integrity to walk your talk in the world. Not so much being distracted by everyone else’s expectations, know what I mean?

Mars has you sexy & self assured about this, for the next 6 months-what a buzz!

Also Mars opposite caring Ceres, in your 8th house of entangled relationships and vulnerable intimacy. I guess the more you keep your own act together, you know how to show up with the people you care about. Caring for one another with mutual respect, totally ignites your love life right now!

Especially Pluto direct in your 8th house, from Oct 12th. I mean it’s been quite a trip, with Pluto in your 8th for the last 15 years -revealing every deep emotional issue, complicated power trip and sexy passions going on, with the people you inevitably have to deal with. By now you know for sure, the loved ones you have forged an enduring connection with, and any toxic weirdos you have hopefully ditched by now? So until late Nov, Pluto completes this process of shining a light on your deep relational secrets, with a powerful new handle on honest, passionate, mutually fascinating love.

Then Pluto into your expansive 9th house is an even bigger adventure-for the next 20 years! More on that later…

Then the Full Moon of Oct 17th, in your social sector. Picking up on the Eclipse earlier in the month-for your innate charisma to shine through, as you social butterfly around the world, like you love to do. Any networking opportunities, feeling connected to the cultural zeitgeist around you and hanging out with dear friends, could feel so creatively & emotionally satisfying here.
