Jupiter continues to move through your sign until June, dear Gemini, and if you haven't taken advantage of this beneficial cycle yet, Jupiter's direct motion from February to June is a great time to do so. It's about positive new beginnings, turning over a new leaf, and expressing yourself without apology. Be proud of who you are. This is also a good time to attract a partner, or enhance an existing partnership. Besides putting yourself "out there" and expressing yourself with confidence, one of the best things you can do for yourself in 2013 is to fine-tune your work, health, and daily routines. You are in need of more structure when it comes to these things, and while it involves effort and persistence, you'll thank yourself for doing it. Orderliness will be empowering, and paying closer attention to deadlines, details, and rules will help tidy up your own mind and emotions so that you feel freer to enjoy yourself when pleasure calls, which it is likely to do frequently! The second half of the year brings a stronger need to feel rooted, secure, and comfortable. If you've played your cards right, a raise, bonus, large gift, or some other material increase can come into your life. Even if material benefits are not obvious during Jupiter's transit of your solar second house (from late June 2013 to July 2014), it can be a time of indulgence and abundance. It's a great time to build on existing projects and businesses. In August, however, you may need to deal with the reality of debts, loss of some form of support, or some power struggles over money or possessions. There can be some slowdowns in business or work this year, likely centered around Mercury retrograde periods, but changes you are making put you in a great position for future, long-term growth. Many Geminis will be starting or growing businesses this year that will benefit them for years to come. This will not come without hard work and persistence, but you are likely to enjoy the process more if you work on those things that really matter in the long term. Love relationships look strong this year. While in many ways this is a "me" year, the "we" part is likely to run quite smoothly. However, one or more friendships may be tested this year, with changing values and lack of support the larger issues. 2013 is potentially excellent for putting a bad habit behind you, and health is likely to improve as a result.
2013 Details.
Until June 25th, Jupiter continues to move through your sign and your solar first house. This exciting transit brings improvements to your immediate environment and self-confidence as well as increased generosity to your personality. Your personality is more obviously expansive, exuberant, and enthusiastic. This transit heightens your optimism and generosity, and the entire cycle has the potential for being a relaxed, fortunate, and hopeful time in your life. You are greeting life with a fresh, can-do attitude. What happened in the past is not very important to you now--it's the future you're eyeing now. Events occur that help you to overcome problems that previously seemed challenging or even insurmountable--you have an altogether different perspective on life now, and are not inclined much to sweat the small stuff. You create a distinct first impression on others, and your likeability increases. Furthering your personal ambitions and interests comes more easily during this cycle. At times, you may feel like the sky is the limit! You might need to guard against becoming too full of yourself or overly self-interested, however. There is also a risk of overindulgence and other forms of excessive behavior. Jupiter can bring endings into your life in order for you to grow, although these are generally easy ones. A carefree attitude is different than a careless one, and the fine line between the two is definitely something to watch for. You feel considerably freer to be yourself, and others tend to accept you more readily. These positive circumstances won't necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once, although they are more likely due to Jupiter's direct influence on your life. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life, and always watch for overdoing things or carelessness.
This can also be a time when it's easier to find a partnership, or for partnered Geminis, a partner has their best interests at heart and is supportive.
The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar first house, from January 30th to June 25th.
Jupiter transits conjunct your Sun until March 2013. This is a feel-good transit that offers you opportunities to rise above petty concerns. It's an excellent time to start new long-term projects. You might find that you feel more vital, confident, and optimistic about the future at this time. It's a good time to resolve conflicts. You may be released from previously confining situations that have been stunting your growth or progress. Events may give your ego a boost, and you could be feeling quite vital and alive. Take advantage of this by promoting yourself or putting yourself "out there". Ego gratification is the theme of this transit. This is the start of a "new you" -- a more confident and faithful person.
From June 25th forward, Jupiter transits your solar second house. During this cycle, you are likely to see and enjoy benefits to your earning power and value system. Jupiter in this part of your chart could very well bring a profitable and productive period. You are likely to feel more confident and enthusiastic about your ability to earn a living, and this can help you to attract more income, as long as you are realistic. You might decide to develop your talents during this Jupiter cycle, which in turn boosts your earning power. Your income might increase, and there may be an opportunity to improve your future financial situation. However, you could be just as inclined to splurge on yourself, opting to plump up your nest or your store of personal possessions in order to feel more secure. Money problems from the past may clear up during this period if you use it appropriately, developing budgets and working out ways to better manage your resources. You may be adding to your possessions, you might receive a large item or gift, or a major purchase or sale might occur now. A significant gift or bonus may come your way. This is a good time to work with financial institutions, shoot for a raise, or apply for a loan. You may need to curb an inclination to overspend--feeling good could bring you to the stores as you temporarily forget about the future! The positive circumstances listed here won't necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life.
During this cycle, money or possessions from a significant other or from one-on-one services such as counselling or consulting can increase and boost your own sense of security and wealth. If you're overconfident about your ability to make money, then you might take foolish risks, such as borrowing from your future, and this tendency tends to be especially strong in September. August can bring a conflict over someone else's resources or money.
The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar second house, from June 25th to November 6th. (This transit lasts until July 2014).
Saturn continues to transit your solar sixth house this year. This transit lasts until 2015, and is typically felt most strongly in the first year of its influence. This transit affects your job, daily routines, self-care efforts, and health. You may be taking on more responsibilities on the job or in another service-oriented capacity. For some of you, your job could become rather tedious or downright boring, or working conditions may be poor, demanding, or frustrating -- at least, this is your perception of things. For others, worries about your job could figure. For many, duty could come before pleasure, and a tendency to work more or harder is likely. As long as this doesn't reach workaholic levels, you'll be just fine. In fact, it is easier than usual to be sensible about your diet, health, hygiene, and fitness needs. Be aware of the need to know when enough is enough, however. With Saturn turning a critical eye to work, daily functions, habits, and health, you are likely to feel some pressure to perform. You find yourself more accountable than ever when it comes to your work and output. Some of the questions that this cycle calls up include: How can you make best use of your time? How can you manage your day-to-day life, and your body, better? You become more and more aware of all of the "fluff" that surrounds your daily routines and your work, and spring cleaning becomes necessary. This is an excellent period for starting new regimens to better your health and well-being, such as regular exercise, more structured and productive use of your time, and so forth. By the time this transit ends (in 2015) you will be considerably more productive, healthy, and focused.
Pluto is transiting your solar eighth house this year, which has the effect of gradually deepening your interest in the hidden, mysterious, or taboo side of life, as well as your own deeper nature.
Uranus is transiting your solar eleventh house, affecting your friendships and enlivening your social circle. This movement ends a previous cycle in which career matters have been changing sometimes quite radically. At this time, changes in your social circle occur as you meet new and unusual people. You may join a group that is devoted to metaphysics or some non-mainstream topic. You are drawn to people who are free-spirited at this point in your life. Friendships that are stodgy or limiting may very well be left behind. You have a strong ability to see each person for who they are as unique individuals, and this helps endear you to others. However, friendships may come and go during this cycle.
The influence of Neptune is similar to last year for those of you born May 28-31 or with a Gemini Ascendant of 6-10 degrees. Neptune continues to transit your solar ninth house, as it has been doing for a number of years. Your overall perspective on life has been expanding, and you are more willing to embrace unusual, mystical, or spiritual philosophies. However, for those born May 22-27 ( or 0-5-1/2 degrees Gemini Ascendant), Neptune begins its transit of your solar tenth house and squares your Sun/Ascendant this year. Neptune through your career and reputation sector may put a cloud over your goals and mystery surrounding your reputation. Your worldly goals may be watered down during this cycle, as you focus more on personal affairs. Others may not be seeing you for who you are, but rather what they'd like you to be. Try not to encourage this behavior, as tempting as it might be to do so. Some of you might be leaning towards a more spiritual, creative, or artistic career. Neptune clouding your vision of where it is you are headed in life can cause some inner restlessness and confusion. A master plan may be elusive during this period of your life. Unusual circumstances, coincidences, or some level of secrecy and mystery surround your career this year. Neptune is encouraging you to get in touch with your more spiritual side, but the circumstances that propel you in that direction may be confusing at first.
Your ruler, Mercury, turns retrograde typically at least three times in the course of a year. These periods are better used for reflection rather than for pushing personal plans ahead. In 2013, Mercury is retrograde from February 23-March 17, June 26-July 20, and October 21-November 10. These occur in your practical houses ruling money, work, and career, amongst other things, so that at times matters surrounding these things can stall while you come to a different perspective.
The North Node of the Moon is transiting your solar sixth house all year, and this suggests that some of the greatest joys - and challenges - come through your work, habits, health, and routines. Setting rules and boundaries will be important at this time. Orderliness will be empowering, and paying closer attention to deadlines, details, and rules will be challenging but also very rewarding. By structuring your life, you will be able to come closer to achieving your dreams.
Eclipses in 2013 fall mostly in your solar sixth and twelfth houses. Circumstances urge you to rid yourself of guilt about under-performing, and to develop faith and trust in a larger more spiritual plan. It's time to let go of some of your fears that you are not doing enough, to develop more compassion and understanding of others, and to be humble, feeling safe in the knowledge that you (and others) are not perfect. It's time to let go of some of your obsessions with rules, details, and fears of not doing things perfectly. There could be changes necessary in your job or health routines. You can use this surge of emotional energy to make positive changes to your routines. Do something to improve your work conditions if they are annoying you. Get going on your exercise or nutrition program that you know you have to do in order to feel more balanced. In October, a Lunar Eclipse in Aries turns your attention to friends, romance, and creativity.
From May to November, a tense connection between your eighth and eleventh houses may suggest some sexual or power-related undercurrents that disrupt a friendship, or your relationship with a partner could intrude upon your enjoyment of friends and groups. Alternatively, there can be a feeling of not being supported or outright challenged by others during this time.
Some of your most natural talents - the things that come easily - meet with reward and acceptance this year. The details and the "little things" make all the difference. Perfecting your particular craft is natural this year. Practical matters are a large focus and are very strong. More security in your job is likely. You are more willing than usual to work diligently for money, and your natural talents are likely to be utilized more in the work you do, and appreciated by others. The work you do could be supported by your spouse's money or other people's money in general. Or, your work may simply be related to others' talents and resources this year. Business should subtly improve this year, and you are likely to be backed by superiors.
Gemini (Born June 1 to 11) - 10 to 20 degrees Gemini:
Jupiter continues to move through your sign until June, dear Gemini, and if you haven't taken advantage of this beneficial cycle yet, Jupiter's direct motion from February to June is a great time to do so.

Saturn transits your solar sixth house this year. This transit affects your job, daily routines, self-care efforts, and health. You may be taking on more responsibilities on the job or in another service-oriented capacity. For some of you, your job could become rather tedious or downright boring, or working conditions may be poor, demanding, or frustrating -- at least, this is your perception of things.

For those of you born June 1-3, Uranus is transiting your solar eleventh house, affecting your friendships and enlivening your social circle. This movement ends a previous cycle in which career matters have been changing sometimes quite radically. At this time, changes in your social circle occur as you meet new and unusual people. You may join a group that is devoted to metaphysics or some non-mainstream topic. You are drawn to people who are free-spirited at this point in your life.

For those born June 4-11, Uranus continues to transit your solar tenth house, but is nearing the end of its lengthy journey in this area of your chart. Over recent years, your career direction has been changing and your relationships with authority figures may have been tense. You certainly don't like to follow orders these days! Do your best to avoid impulsive decision-making that is built upon your desire to be a free spirit. You may recognize talents that you never knew you had, and this can be a sudden, exciting discovery.
The influence of Neptune is similar to last year. Neptune continues to transit your solar ninth house, as it has been doing for a number of years. Your overall perspective on life has been expanding, and you are more willing to embrace unusual, mystical, or spiritual philosophies.
Your ruler, Mercury, turns retrograde typically at least three times in the course of a year. These periods are better used for reflection rather than for pushing personal plans ahead.

By structuring your life, you will be able to come closer to achieving your dreams. From August forward, you are pointed in the direction of creativity, uniqueness, standing out, love affairs, and sharing your heart. You need to make a conscious effort to deal with others in a more personal, involved, and loving manner, rather than falling back on reason and intellect which detaches you from your feelings. Learning to take personal risks, which requires a certain amount of self-confidence, will help you to achieve inner balance and happiness.
Eclipses in 2013 fall mostly in your solar sixth and twelfth houses. Circumstances urge you to rid yourself of guilt about under-performing, and to develop faith and trust in a larger more spiritual plan.

Alternatively, there can be a feeling of not being supported or outright challenged by others during this time. There might also be some conflict between the demands of a partnership and the demands of career. Finding a balance between the two, instead of pushing or rebelling against either, is the challenge now.

2013 Details.
Until May 12th, Jupiter continues to transit your solar twelfth house. This transit brings benefits to activities that take place "behind the scenes" or otherwise privately, as well as in the soul. This is a cycle in which you become more compassionate, empathetic, and sensitive, or get in deeper touch with these traits. Jupiter in the twelfth house is said to offer one spiritual protection. This is a time when you can rid yourself of self-destructive tendencies, deep-seated fears, and deeply-ingrained tendencies towards guilty feelings. You are more able to get in touch with your subconscious mind, and in fact, confronting your fears can be quite pleasurable during this period. Charity, giving/donating anonymously, volunteering, and helping others without expectation of reward will be most fulfilling during this cycle. Helping others actually helps you. Work that involves serving others may begin now and bring you much joy. Your dreaming world may be especially rich, lighter, helpful, and more intuitive. Meditation and retreats may be particularly helpful to you now, as they regenerate and invigorate your spirit. Much pleasure and growth might be found in solitude and contemplation. You may pick up New Age studies, spirituality, dream interpretation, or research during this cycle. Some people enter into a private romance during this cycle. In general, help seems to be there when you need it. You are building or rebuilding your inner faith now. These positive circumstances won't necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life. Some of you could be dealing with endings of a relationship or with private matters revolving around a partnership.
The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar twelfth house, from January 30th to May 12th.
Jupiter enters your sign in June, but will not quite make it to the degree of your Sun (or Ascendant) until May.
Jupiter transits your solar first house from May 12th forward, and into 2014. This exciting transit brings improvements to your immediate environment and self-confidence as well as increased generosity to your personality. Your personality is more obviously expansive, exuberant, and enthusiastic. This transit heightens your optimism and generosity, and the entire cycle has the potential for being a relaxed, fortunate, and hopeful time in your life. You are greeting life with a fresh, can-do attitude. What happened in the past is not very important to you now--it's the future you're eyeing now.

At times, you may feel like the sky is the limit! You might need to guard against becoming too full of yourself or overly self-interested, however.

This can also be a time when it's easier to find a partnership, or for partnered Geminis, a partner has their best interests at heart and is supportive.
The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar first house, from May 12th to November 6th, although the transit itself extends into 2014.
Saturn continues to transit your solar fifth house this year. Saturn's influence is rather somber and serious. You are getting serious about fifth house matters: romance, relationships with children, your creativity, and pleasure. Serious about pleasure? Yes, indeed. While you may not spend a whole lot of time living it up at parties, bars, or entertainment venues, you are likely to take your hobbies more seriously. In fact, this is an excellent year for monetizing any personal hobby--turning it into a business, even if it's on the side. If you have children, they may need more discipline or structure than they previously did. Some Geminis will be welcoming children into their lives and discovering all of the responsibilities that come with it. Others who already have children may find that they're at an age that requires more attention and discipline, or structure. In the romance department, Saturn's influence can go either way. For some, romance may be somewhat lacking or a romantic relationship could be more practical than fun. Tests or pressures on an existing romance could figure now. For others, a romantic relationship stabilizes and becomes more serious. Some of you will meet a new romantic interest who is perhaps older or mature, thus meeting Saturn through a partner.
Uranus continues to transit your solar tenth house. Over recent years, your career direction has been changing and your relationships with authority figures may have been tense. You certainly don't like to follow orders these days! Do your best to avoid impulsive decision-making that is built upon your desire to be a free spirit. You may recognize talents that you never knew you had, and this can be a sudden, exciting discovery.
The influence of Neptune is similar to last year. Neptune continues to transit your solar ninth house, as it has been doing for a number of years. Your overall perspective on life has been expanding, and you are more willing to embrace unusual, mystical, or spiritual philosophies.
Your ruler, Mercury, turns retrograde typically at least three times in the course of a year. These periods are better used for reflection rather than for pushing personal plans ahead. In 2013, Mercury is retrograde from February 23-March 17, June 26-July 20, and October 21-November 10. These occur in your practical houses ruling money, work, and career, amongst other things, so that at times matters surrounding these things can stall while you come to a different perspective.
The North Node of the Moon is transiting your solar sixth house until March, and this suggests that some of the greatest joys - and challenges - come through your work, habits, health, and routines. Setting rules and boundaries will be important at this time. Orderliness will be empowering, and paying closer attention to deadlines, details, and rules will be challenging but also very rewarding. By structuring your life, you will be able to come closer to achieving your dreams. From March forward, you are pointed in the direction of creativity, uniqueness, standing out, love affairs, and sharing your heart. You need to make a conscious effort to deal with others in a more personal, involved, and loving manner, rather than falling back on reason and intellect which detaches you from your feelings. Learning to take personal risks, which requires a certain amount of self-confidence, will help you to achieve inner balance and happiness.
Eclipses in 2013 fall mostly in your solar sixth and twelfth houses and your solar fifth and eleventh houses. Circumstances urge you to rid yourself of guilt about under-performing, and to develop faith and trust in a larger more spiritual plan. It's time to let go of some of your fears that you are not doing enough, to develop more compassion and understanding of others, and to be humble, feeling safe in the knowledge that you (and others) are not perfect. It's time to let go of some of your obsessions with rules, details, and fears of not doing things perfectly. There could be changes necessary in your job or health routines. You can use this surge of emotional energy to make positive changes to your routines. Do something to improve your work conditions if they are annoying you. Get going on your exercise or nutrition program that you know you have to do in order to feel more balanced. Additionally, you will be learning about letting go of your attachment to the drama of romance and personal relationships, as well as your willfulness. You are called upon to learn about the value of the team. You may need to give freedom to your romantic partner instead of expecting him or her to follow a script of your own making. You learn the value of brotherly love and the benefits of a sense of belonging to a community. Events are such that you move towards a more objective approach to your life and you cultivate true friendships. A romantic affair may undergo deep, rewarding changes. If love is true, there's nothing to fear. The demands of your larger goals in life may have been eclipsing your pleasure-seeking activities. Also possible, your children may be going through their own changes and "stages", and need more attention now.
From May to November, there may be some conflict between the demands of a partnership and the demands of career. Finding a balance between the two, instead of pushing or rebelling against either, is the challenge now.
It would be wise to make something of your hobbies. Even if it doesn't translate to income, you might find that expressing yourself creatively really helps to define yourself and to understand yourself better. Your creative abilities are reflected in your outlook on life and love and romance are life experiences you strongly identify with. Children may be a stronger focus this year as well. You are more effective, in general, in attempts to express your creativity. You have a stronger ability to hold the attention of an audience. Love, love affairs, and other social activities help to enhance a healthy self image. Learning about the world around you through the eyes of a special person--or through other one-to-one relationships, such as clients--is a pleasing theme in 2013. Meeting a partner through travel or educational activities is also possible. Teaching may play a big role in your life this year.
