Gemini Weekly Horoscope

Your ruler, messenger Mercury, has been in Pisces and your 10th House of Career and Professional Reputation for several weeks now, Gemini, so you’re primed to stand front and center and show the world what you’ve got. While you certainly can do that, you will want to be a little more careful about how you present yourself in the weeks to come. Mercury will turn retrograde on the 26th and will be backstroking through this ambitious sector until March 20th, meaning it will be easier than usual to trip yourself up at the office or while in pursuit of your goals. You may catch wind of some exciting opportunities or new projects, only for them to fizzle out before they can really get going, or perhaps you think you are making special headway, only to find out you’ve been going in circles. Generally, the golden rule of retrogrades is to return to what has already occurred, rather than trying to start new projects or positions, because new ventures are sure to break down before they can get going. Revise and review, but avoid exploring new territory in the name of advancement. You’ll have better luck focusing on what is already on your plate.

The 27th could be one of the more shocking or surprising days you’ve experienced in quite some time, so it is a good day to proceed carefully and cautiously. Red-hot Mars is currently marching along through Aquarius and your high-minded 9th House of Expansion and Adventure, but it will be making a combustible square to rebel Uranus in your 12th House of the Subconscious, which could stir up drama and excitement when you least expect it. Opportunities could arrive from out of the blue, but they could be dramatic or make you feel a little uncertain of how to proceed; likewise, someone could say or do something that totally catches you off guard, and makes you question what you thought you knew. Be extra careful when it comes to your mental health at this time; it is easy to get a little frazzled at this time, and the last thing you need is more drama on your plate.

Finally, on the 28th, Mercury will conjoin alluring Venus in your public-facing 10th House, which could help you come off especially well in a professional matter, since Venus will be buffing your reputation and giving you a special something other people won’t be able to miss. However, remember with Mercury currently retrograde, you’ll want to avoid embarking on new projects because new projects rarely pan out when born during retrograde season, so make sure you’re dealing with matters that have already been on the table for some time; that’s the surest way to come out on top. A VIP or other supervisor may decide it is time to open a new door for you, but be extra diligent about choosing which to walk through, and which to either save for later, or ignore altogether.
