Gemini Weekly Horoscope

Have there been some uncomfortable moments with your squad recently, Gem? The easy explanation is the fact that your galactic guardian, messenger Mercury, has been retrograde since April 1 in your eleventh house of community and technology. Misunderstandings and digital glitches may have been more the norm than the exception to the rule. Hopefully any mishaps were easily rectified, and nothing went permanently awry. But on a deeper level, it’s worth considering whether teammates or folks in your inner circle deserve that proximity. People who don’t carry their weight or suck your energy with negativity or in-fighting aren’t serving you well. Since Mercury rules thoughts as well as communication, this is actually a perfect time to reflect on the integrity of any groups you’re a part of and prepare to make any needed adjustments soon.

After Mercury resumes forward motion on Thursday, April 25, it will be a good time to take action on any epiphanies you may have had. It’s not easy to cut ties, but if they’re indisputably holding you back, it’s worth making a graceful exit. Often the cause of discontent stems from communication meltdowns, so with luck—and honesty—you can smooth over the rough patches, rally the troops and get back onto the same page. Clear some space in your schedule though! As Mercury pulses ahead through Aries until May 15, synergies will pop up, and you might get invited to join a new organization. Online ventures get the green light for development. Without the signal-scrambling of Mercury retrograde gumming up the process, they could take off at a galloping pace.
