Gemini
While the Sun, Venus and Mars are all on the move this month, the one planet staying put is Mercury, with the planet of communication refusing to leave your communication sector, the part of your chart where he is able to do what he does best. The Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your communication sector, making this an important time of year for all aspects of communication. However, it was at the end of August that Mercury returned for what is normally a 14 to 15 day chance to get the communication lines open before leaving, not to return for another year.
Instead, a retrograde turn last month not only means that Mercury is still here, but until turning direct on 11th August, he is focused on giving the past and unsaid words a voice. Mercury is working closely with the planets in your friendship sector that are also turning retrograde, with four of the five already in retrograde motion by the time you move into the new month and the fifth turning retrograde on 12th August. While the Sun will move on and, as he does at the same time each year, return to your home and family sector on 23rd August, Mercury will stay on in your communication sector until 3rd September. Meanwhile, having just returned to your income sector on 31st July, until she leaves on 26th August, Venus will be working to make these some of the most potentially lucrative weeks of the year.
While that will always be the case, Jupiter's return in June means that for the first time in over a decade, you have the planets of money and luck working together. At the same time, from the start there are forces in play that are standing by to make this a positive month across the income, work and career fronts. Helping to keep things balanced is Mars' return to a playful and creative part of your chart on 7th August, where within days he will be connecting with Pluto in your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery and Uranus, who is settling into his first full month in Gemini in eight decades. Within days, this trio of planets will be firing up the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence.
