Daily Horoscope for Gemini Summary

Okay, so Mercury is getting along with Saturn, but the two of them are at odds with Mars, which is cool with Neptune and Jupiter, which are both fighting with the Sun. Huh? Meanwhile, Uranus is waiting to form a complex mutable T-Square with Saturn, Mercury and Mars (that starts to intensify early next week). It sounds like a crazy episode of Jerry Springer!

Let's try to break this down a bit. The Sun connecting with Neptune and Jupiter is going to be a barrier to progress, but it's a current barrier. Some of us are going to see where we want to go, what we are striving towards only to see that right now we just don't have the skills and talents to get it done. Because of this, some of us are going to give up and go home. But, just because we aren't prepared to do what we want now doesn't mean we can't get there eventually. So some of us will use this transit to build up skills that are needed to take the next leap forward. Right now, things might seem tough, but this is the type of energy that will spear head great reformations.

The other side of things has the Saturn, Mars, Mercury and Uranus transit forming. This weekend, you'll notice that the things you do aren't really backing up the things you're saying. This is energy that can cause people to resist doing things they're supposed to for no reason other than “they don't want to.” People aren't going to want to hear others tell them what to do. This will continue on into next week (when Uranus starts to get involved), only it's then where you're going to want people to tell you what to do. This transit can get frustrating in that there's a lot of energy and agitation flowing around because people don't know what they're supposed to do with themselves, or where to go. What we need is to listen to the people around us that can show us the way. With Mercury hooked up with Saturn, they aren't going to put things nicely, they'll bluntly tell us what has to happen (which can hurt feelings) but tough it out. It's the message that's important, not the delivery.

If you look at things on the surface, the planets are in a difficult alignment that can cause some hardship this weekend. But, there's boatloads of potential if you look for direction and commit to building yourself. You're going to have to earn it but it's out there. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Gemini

There's a level of responsibility that you'll be held to here that can drag you out in front of other people and make you accountable. Obviously, this is going to go a lot better if you've been doing a good job, but if not, it will serve as a solid reminder that you have to perform. At the same time though, you can toss the blame around pretty freely here, but that's a terrible way of going about things if you (or a team you belong to) didn't get the job done. You aren't going to get anyone off your back here by shifting blame. If something has gone wrong recently, this is the time to salvage it by stepping up and fixing things (as well as they can be fixed).

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

The Tao is the wonder of all things
The treasure of the kind person
The protection of the unkind person

Admirable words can win the public's respect
Admirable actions can improve people
Those who are unkind
How can they be abandoned?

Therefore, when crowning the Emperor
And installing the three ministers
Although there is the offering of jade before four horses
None of it can compare to being seated in this Tao

Why did the ancients value this Tao so much?
Is it not said that those who seek will find,
And those with guilt will not be faulted?
Therefore, it is the greatest value in the world
