MARS - the planet representing the urge to get what you want, personal drive, desires, sexual drive, initiative, courage, and raw energy - begins its extended transit through the expressive, intellectually curious sign of Gemini on Saturday, August 20th, at 3:56 AM EDT ... as Mars usually represents fiery actions and Gemini is an Air sign, Mars has the potential to function extremely well and forcefully here ... and why ??? ... because AIR GIVES LIFE TO FIRE !!! ... in fact, it may work too well and too fast at times in Gemini ... Mars was last in Gemini from March 3rd through April 23rd, 2021... what was going on during that period in your life in regards to getting what you wanted, taking initiative, or even your sexual drive ???
A keyword for Mars in Gemini would certainly be "spontaneous" ... under this energy one is mentally active and naturally curious with a very restless mind and tongue ... one can assert themselves flexibly, cleverly, and with many talents ... verbal expression and learning is important ... in fact the desire to talk and communicate is so strong that one may talk incessantly and we may find ourselves thinking or perhaps forced to blurt out - SHUT UP ... unfortunately this is why gossip and rumors have the potential to spread like wildfire !!! ... in addition, having variety and being on the move is necessary ... energy flows very easily here into mental pursuits and/or skill with the hands ... there is often a display of great dexterity and manual skills ... there is a drive towards learning more, developing new skills and making additional connections between people and/or concepts and ideas ... there is usually versatility and adaptability but there is always the risk of being easily distracted as ones focus and desires change quickly and frequently or get completely lost being influenced by so much stimuli ... think of the phrase "ONCE IS ENOUGH" !!!
Personal identity is tied to ones thinking and communication or to ones manual skills ... sexual drive and physical energy are affected by what one sees, thinks, new ideas, and by conversations ... under this energy if someone is ever ticked off, you can forget about getting a word in at all !!! ... as for partnerships and sex, this energy frequently requires more than one partner for total fulfillment !!!
Mars in Gemini teaches us to learn how to get what we want through communicating on all levels ... it's the live wire ... it's touch and go ... in fact it is a real go-getter - quick to think, quick to act, and then quick to move on ... if you want to know something, it won't be too long before you simply go and ask ... the desire nature, the tongue and the nervous system are all wired together here ... attaining the object of ones desires and satisfying them is usually achieved quickly ... there is a need with Mars in Gemini to learn to slow down in order to see what is really happening in order to discover what it is your heart truly desires ... and this can be challenging as Mars energy, especially in this sign, DOES NOT like to slow down ... know anyone born under this planetary energy ??? ... I rest, so to speak, my case !!!
The contact ultimately to be made under this energy is with ones self - until you are able to concentrate your attention and learn to distinguish between what you want, what you have, and what you can't have, you will fall victim to your nervous system running in overdrive and dictating what you do ... these high strung energies need a constant outlet ... and when you run into someone who frustrates your energies, it becomes necessary to determine what it really is about that person that is driving you - up, down, forward, backward, wild or plain crazy - and you may ultimately discover it is something inside of YOU !!! ... the energy of Mars in Gemini can be expressed in the following ways :
POSITIVE: sharp-witted, humorous, stimulating, ingenious, dexterous, resourceful, adaptable, quick, agile, lively, mobile, eloquent, inquisitive, communicative, contact-maker, versatile mind, flexible, full of ideas, multi-talented
NEGATIVE: sharp-tongued, sarcastic, irreverent, argumentative, mischievous, meddlesome, unreliable, hasty, jumpy, unable to relax, restless, verbose, nosy, rambling, gets wired crossed, scatters thoughts, changeable, lacking in perseverance
GEMINI BORN - enjoy this extra long burst of get up and go, as if you really need it anyway, for roughly the next six weeks - be careful not to "incinerate" everyone else with this added "fired" up energy while it is engaged productively without influence from any other universal force of energy in play at the present time !!!
Mars is currently the only planet transiting through the sign of Gemini and given its highly driven energy here, that is probably enough for now ... Mars remains in Gemini until ... wait for it ...March 23rd, 2023 ... a much longer than usual transit and you know why !!!
Mars will take its next retrograde journey from October 30th through January 12th, 2023 completely in the sign of Gemini going from 25 degrees 37 minutes back to 8 degrees 8 minutes Gemini ... it would be a very wise idea to find out in which house or houses this lengthy retrograde, 74 days, will take place so you get an idea where in your life the main thrust of this Mars retrograde may make its presence especially felt ... Aries born and Gemini and even Virgo, being ruled my Mercury, born may potentially be more affected but we all might to some degree ... Gemini is ruled by Mercury, already in its shadow point as of yesterday, August 20th ... Mercury will take its third retrograde journey from September 9th through October 2nd ... it will then take its fourth and final retrograde journey for 2022 from December 29th through January 18th, 2023 and that one will be completely embedded in the final 15 days of the Mars retrograde ... the rest of 2022 could be somewhat bumpy and challenging to navigate with two personal planets switching back and forth in shadow points and retrograde periods ... as well we will enter a New Year under both a Mercury and Mars retrograde in progress ... Mars enters its next shadow point on September 3rd !!!
NOW - let's all get out there and, in one way or another, BUST A MOVE - INTELLECTUALLY ... PHYSICALLY ... OR BOTH !!!
