Weekly Horoscope Of Gemini

WEEK OF February 12 - 18, 2018

Have you been dwelling on the details? Enough ruminating! Switch to a wide-angled lens this week as Thursday’s solar (new moon) eclipse in Aquarius powers up your visionary ninth house. The world will feel like your oyster, which begs the question: Where will you go diving for freshwater pearls? Since solar eclipses can reveal the unexpected, cast a MUCH wider net in your travel research.

This new moon also heralds the beginning of the Year of the Earth Dog. Forget about roughing it in some rustic yurt with no running water. Comfort and a touch of luxury are essentials, even if you’re swaying in a haute hammock at a boho-chic yoga center. You might even revisit a place that holds special meaning, especially if you learned about it near last August 7’s lunar eclipse—the date of the first in this trio of Aquarius eclipses. Got any media projects or business ventures in the works? This eclipse (the second in the series) brings a strong tailwind for such missions since it hits your ninth house, the zone of publishing and entrepreneurship. Some Geminis could receive guidance that it’s time to go back to school or work with a master teacher. Stay alert! Your “guru” could show up within a few days of Thursday; or you may learn of a degree program with a doable schedule, like classes compressed into two weekends per month. Got something to teach the world? Start mapping out that curriculum—and think interactively. All these brainstorms might become tangible productions, like a course or a book, by the final Aquarius (lunar) eclipse on July 27.Dialing it back a day to Wednesday the 14th, the practically-new moon in Aquarius will set the mood of Valentine’s Day to a free-spirited one. Single? You might just be like, “Cupid, draw back your bow…but, uh, aim it in another direction, please.” Nothing wrong with mingling sans strings, Gemini! But you know how Murphy’s Law works: Just when you swear off love, it seems to show up unexpectedly. With these moonbeams throwing ambient light in your worldly ninth house, you could swoon for a sexy accent or a sweet-talker from a different cultural background. Philosophical conversations may arouse more than your intellectual curiosity. Attached? Your ideal scenario would involve slipping off for a midweek getaway. If that’s not possible, a staycation at a luxe hotel could set the right mood. But don’t lounge in bed ordering room service. You’ll want to be out and about. Think: two tickets to a show and some late night dancing to get you in the mood.All PLAY and no work makes for one ungrounded Gemini. If you’ve been loosely tethered to Earth for the past month, drift on back this weekend. On Saturday, February 17 your ruler Mercury hunkers down in Pisces and your tenth house of career until March 6. Then, on Sunday, el Sol joins up, sailing into Pisces and fueling your ambition tanks for a month-long mission. Professional aspirations take priority and you’ll get your sensible Chuck Taylors back on solid ground. Get out and mingle with people in your industry and make a budget for power lunches. You could be sitting across the table from some very influential VIPs between now and March 20. Not sure how to meet them? How about joining a fancier gym? With your ability to charm through casual conversation, you may wind up “sweatworking” at the smoothie bar. While you love to work in partnership, this cosmic cycle is coaxing you into the lead role. Give a solo project the airtime it deserves. You can still collaborate, Gem, but in this case, with a team of people who are there to bring forward YOUR vision. Since the tenth house is the masculine realm, men could be the star players in your world for the coming four weeks. Loop them into your plans: Proactive dialogues are bound to emerge!
