Gemini Monthly Forecast

There is a little bit of everything this month, making work/life balance a priority from the start. Thanks to Mars' return to your career sector towards the end of last month, the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos will spend the whole of April here, keeping the momentum of previous months going while adding more fuel to the mix. It was three days after the Sun left on the March equinox that Mars returned and just as things should have been easing back, this has fired things up again. Until she leaves on 5th April Venus will be working to give your heart a voice and to leave you with something that Mars can continue to fight for. Some of the most important days of the month professionally will be when the Moon moves through your career sector from 5th April to 7th April and again when it not only returns to your work sector from 24th April to 26th April but as a Full Moon. Meanwhile, when Venus leaves, she will join a growing groundswell of planets in your friendship sector. Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of April in your friendship sector, the solar spotlight is always on your social life, friendships, teamwork and networking at this time of year. For Venus, who is here from 5th April to 29th April, this is a social and serendipitous part of your chart and when, by using the laws of attraction and synchronicity, she will make it easier to find yourself in the right place at the right time. Mercury, the planet of communication will spend the whole month here, while in retrograde motion from 2nd April to 26th April he will be holding the doors open to the past. The Sun is only here until 20th April, when he will not only return to a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart to begin the month long wind down of your old solar year but will join Jupiter who is doing the same, except winding down a 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion ahead of his return to Gemini next month.

It was an eclipsing Full Moon in your romantic sector in the last week of March that has already given the spirit of romance a boost while acting as a catalyst or a trigger for something that is still running its course. There will always be a Full Moon in your romantic sector at some point in the first four weeks after the March equinox and halfway between the Sun's last visit and the next and at a point where there is rarely any planetary activity on the romantic front, this can give the spirit of romance a much needed boost. The difference this time is that with the South Node here, it can keep the momentum going. Even before the Moon comes full circle from last month's eclipsing Full Moon from 21st April to 23rd April, you may find that there are unexpected or serendipitous moments that catch you by surprise, as if there was an unseen hand at work. Helping with this is having Venus, the planet of love in a social and serendipitous part of your chart from 5th April to 29th April. This is an area of your chart that operates under the laws of synchronicity and as Venus operates through the laws of attraction, here she is able to bring the two together. When Venus is here you can expect more serendipitous moments and/or encounters, adding to what the eclipsing Full Moon has already triggered or set in motion. The Moon will return to your romantic sector on 21st April, the same day that Venus leaves and staying on until 23rd April, these romantically charged lunar vibes will be able to capture some of the magic. Meanwhile, with no planetary activity in your relationship sector, starting the month with the Moon here will ensure you are emotionally engaged from the start. While the Moon will leave on 1st April, it will be back again from 26th April to 28th April. It is a day later that Venus will return to a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart on 29th April to take your heart on a nostalgic trip down love's memory lane that will end with her return to Gemini next month.
