Gemini Monthly Horoscope

The silver lining? Mars moves out of Gemini and into Cancer the next day (September 4), energizing your money house until November 3. Exciting new opportunities will crop up, making you glad you didn’t settle for less than you deserve. 

Mood alert: Fiery Mars in sensitive Cancer can turn up the dial on our feelings—especially regarding family matters. If there’s an emotionally domineering presence at home (or in your inner circle) disrupting your peace, you can address that now. At its highest potential, Mars in Cancer empowers you to lead with your intuition and facilitate necessary heart-opening conversation. On the other hand, Mars in Cancer energy can manifest as passive-aggressiveness, showing where you might be making too many sacrifices at the expense of your own needs.

Keep your chin up on September 8. The once-a-year opposition of the Sun and structure-loving Saturn could break you out of the habit of DIY-ing, well, everything. We know you CAN do it best, Gemini, but not only is that a lonely path, it’s ultimately an inefficient one. Sure, you have control, but does the work ever truly get done? The Sun-Saturn face-off invites you to take a hard look at how rigid self-sufficiency can limit you more than you realize. Two (or three or even four) heads are better than one now, Gemini. 

As you reach out—and up—for support, be direct about what you need from people. If you assign duties, spell out exactly what everyone's responsibilities are. Simultaneously, find a way to pay it forward with someone who could use your guidance. Integrity is everything with Saturn in the house! If you have outstanding debt (financial or emotional) with a friend, discuss arrangements to make good on your promise.
