Yearly Horoscope: Gemini – 2021

Mercury’s entrance into Pisces on March 15th indicates challenges to staying on task at work. Already prone to distraction, you find it even harder to focus, especially since you’d rather be somewhere else. Since 2012, you’ve been exploring what your life’s calling is, trying on various caps along the way. This has included a lot of false starts, premature endings, and anxiety over your life’s direction. Although this has been frustrating, it has also allowed you to collect the data you need in order to know where you want to go. Even with a road map, however, the challenge for you is keeping your eye on the prize. You have a short attention span and become bored easily due to a hungry mind. You’re learning that part of working towards something requires sacrifice. Be mindful of diverging from your dream by something seemingly more interesting on March 29th when Mercury conjoins nebulous Neptune in your solar 10th house of career.

A good friend encourages you to find a coach come April. This helps you create a plan for how to manage your time so you can reach your goals and expand your horizons. In addition, Eclipses have been occurring in the parts of your solar chart having to do with relationships since June of 2020, indicating that change is impending in this area of life. This could be exploring a new connection, ending an old one, or a dramatic shift in your partner’s life. Be careful of self-sabotage on April 24th when Mercury conjoins seductive Venus and high-minded Uranus in the part of your solar chart pertaining to hidden things. Venus paired with Uranus makes unattainable ideals regarding love especially attractive. As a Gemini, you love to flirt and play. You may be tempted to seek out forbidden fruit or get involved with the wrong sort of person, thinking it’s all fun and games anyways. May 26th’s Eclipse begs the question of whether the agreements you have with a partner are working for you. Thankfully adjustments and revisions become possible from May 29th until June 22nd when you’re given another chance to rewrite your terms and do things over.

July 12th marks a time where you’re getting proactive with your resources. You’re sick and tired of debt management and finally have enough money to put a downpayment on something. This is a good day to make an informed investment or start a business with Mercury making a trine to benevolent Jupiter. Although finances are fortuitous, circumstances with your best buddy aren’t as favorable. Come August 1st, you realize a close friend is struggling. As a sign denoted by the twins, your friends are important to you and you show up for them in the ways you know best, which is to inject some humor into the proceedings and to make light of challenges. Being a spring sign, you lighten up life. Your infectious enthusiasm offers relief from heavier experiences and your ability to crack a joke distracts your friend from their sorrows. They are out of the doldrums in no time with your fun facts, games, and banter.

An opportunity presents itself on the homefront on August 20th. This could be coming across an antique in your parent’s basement, discovering a cheap property for sale, or negotiating a deal on refurbishing your home. As the sign of the trickster, you have the unique ability of finding the treasure in the trash and always having an unplayed ace up your sleeve. Although your usual motto is to ask forgiveness and not permission, it’s probably better to obtain consent before you sell your mom’s prom dress on Etsy or make a big purchase from a joint account you share. Come August 26th, you profit by wheeling and dealing, using your ingenuity for turning lead into gold.

Part of expanding your horizons means stepping into roles you’re not used to. Mercury in Libra is such a time for you come September 4th when you find yourself in the middle of a dispute between two friends or coworkers. Libra is the sign of justice, but as a Gemini, you get nervous taking sides. Although your ability to see all points of view prompts you to ask pertinent questions, this time it’s your support that is needed. Your eloquent way with words helps you deliver the verdict tactfully by September 27th. Come October 9th, everyone is back on good terms thanks to your friendly and affable nature.

The Eclipse on December 4th in Sagittarius brings one more lesson in relationships. As a Gemini, you like having one foot out of the door. The problem with always having an escape plan, however, is that it means missing out on what’s possible in the here and now. This has been a year about making choices at different crossroads, even if that’s meant letting go of something else. You’ve had to give up short term interests to dedicate yourself to your higher purpose and leave behind neutrality for the sake of loyalty. This Eclipse invites you to take a chance in love and act from a place of faith rather than fear. Mercury’s conjunction to both Pluto and Venus in Capricorn on December 30th ends the year with a reminder that the best things in life come over time and that what’s sacrificed now will be repaid in plenty later on.

Capricorn reminds us that things get better with age. that long-term commitment brings (something with commitment vs tapdancing… ) (Capricorn is knowledge and wisdom too… Capricorn’s thing is history… the wisdom of time and age (history)….

This has been a year of self development and growth -is this really what the year is about?? What’s the real theme? There were no decisions and sacrifices … which is what the year was supposedly about…..(if I go with settling for less/wanting a better position… but my relationship or friends are keeping me back… or maybe the year is about choices are different crossroads…once i figure out what freedom means to a Gemini, i’ll get the rest of it…they won’t sell themselves short, even if they mess up the deal… the jobs they take will take them one place to another – a means to an end…the steps are always leading somewhere- how do I get from here to there- that’s a mercury thing.).

The year begins with your ruling planet Mercury traveling through that part of your solar chart pertaining to higher knowledge. You’re seeking to better yourself through learning about something in greater depth and increasing your skill set. As a sign ruled by the planet of learning, you’re blessed with an innate curiosity and a knack for gathering information. However, Mercury’s square to Uranus and Mars between January 8th – 12th brings a reality check. Questions of how you’re going to pay for school, whether you have the time for additional training, or if the spiritual path is worth the labor come to mind. In addition, you struggle with commitment, preferring instead to go where the wind takes you. Come January 30th, you contemplate whether working towards these goals is worth the costs and if you’re willing to forfeit your freedom.

(this leaves you wondering about costs and if you’re willing to forfeit your freedom)(3 different ideas here – going back to school, time commitment for a workshop, is investing in your skillset right now something you can do?… can you add to your busy schedule…) of what going back to school really entails (this isn’t happening for everyone…). the how Covid-19 will affect your classes, and if working full time while being a student is realistic bring doubts about your plan for furthering your education.

As a Mercury ruled sign, you have a hungry mind and a short attention span. Not especially known for follow-through, you’ve been easily diverted by more glamorous fantasies with nebulous Neptune transiting your solar 10th house of career.

This forces you to face the reality of what it takes to achieve your dreams and ask whether you’re willing to make the sacrifices to get there.

Because of this, you find it hard sticking with anything you find boring.The pitfall to this strategy is that shinier prizes often steal your attention and glamorize those things that always remain out of reach. March 29th brings such a moment. Variety and flexibility are key when it comes to keeping things interesting. (and whether you want to make those sacrifices. and if they’re worth it). /vocations… bring up side gigs – why would it be appealing for a Gemini? Why would they be wanting to do side gigs? Side gig is different from gig – side gig helps you work towards your dream… if these are gigs, was it supposed to free their time? Can say, Gemini likes gigs! Why??).and wondering whether you want to make the sacrifices to get there. The pitfall to this strategy is that shinier prizes often steal your attention and glamorize those things that always remain out of reach. March 29th brings such a moment. Although you want more in life, it’s hard to give up the freedom you’ve created. (Gemini won’t stick with a job they don’t like… they’ll create the job they want…I have a hungry mind and how do I apply what I”m learning to the way I”m living?… they’re going to find the job, but can they maintain their job as they know it, even with these new dreams/desire to better themself? Struggling with choice is the main issue… will require drastic shift in lifestyle… will is required.. ending relationships, changing finances, what must they sacrifice?what does freedom mean to this person to a gemini?)

(give a few different scenarios of how this can work out… Eclipses going through these houses, there are more dramatic and impactful choice about relationships.. If you’re single you won’t be for long… if you’re in a relationship, you’re asking serious questions about where you’re at right now and do you want to be in the relationship?….

(this is more about how they FEEL/headspace)

You’re especially motivated to get back into shape on November 10th when Mercury conjoins Mars in Scorpio. Unfortunately, this proves to be harder than expected.
