But back to how October will affect your day-to-day life. On Sunday, October 13, the divine messenger Mercury, your ruling planet, moves into your 6th House of Health. You’re the social butterfly of the zodiac. You’re also represented by the twins, but it’s important to remember that, in reality, you’re only one person and you need your rest. Mercury moving into your 6th House is a cosmic order to slow down, Gemini, even if that can be hard for you. But think of it this way: If you don’t take a break, your body is going to go ahead and do it for you. If you catch a cold or something, it will slow you down even further.
A romantic and social day arrives on Thursday, October 17. Save your energy for this date. Lover Venus moves into Sagittarius, affecting your 7th House of Partnership. You’ll want to stay in bed with your lover; this transit leaves you both turned on and ultra-affectionate. It’s also an Aries full moon that lights up your 11th House of Friendship. If you do get out of bed, it will be to party with friends. Just be aware that full moons are animalistic times. If you’re single, you could see yourself making out with a friend.
When the sun moves into spooky Scorpio on Tuesday, October 22, there will be even more reasons to party. Halloween is approaching. Everyone loves Scorpio season, especially Geminis, given all the costume parties. Just know that for the next few weeks, the sun is in your self-care-oriented 6th House. You’ll only have fun if you work rest in there.
Finally, circling back to your romantic relationships and sex life, Vesta, the asteroid of sacred spirituality, moves into your pleasurable 5th House on Saturday, October 26. This transit honestly makes you see God when you come. Sex gets so intense. No parter? Don’t worry about it. Treat yourself to a sex toy. And, should you be asexual, know that this applies to creativity, too. Vesta moving into your 5th House is an amazing time to write poems, play music, or indulge in whatever your favorite creative hobby is. Enjoy, and we’ll see you in September.
