Gemini Horoscope for July 2013

This is a special month for you, Gemini. With Mercury Retrograde in your sector of values and resources, you are spending some serious time rethinking all your possibilities. It is perhaps strange, and definitely confusing, to be internally rather than externally motivated. You are questioning your foundations, and this could be a good thing, allowing you to see beyond the superficial reasons for doing what you do. With one part of your being you are very aware of ancient patterns stemming from old wounds that could be holding you back from your life's fullest expression, while another side of yourself goes along with the daily business of living. The sunlight shines into these darker places at times like this, when you can forge a connection between incongruous parts. Good fortune follows sincere inquiry.

As the month begins, you are coming off of an intense last weekend of June, full of surprising realizations and barely verbalized moods and feelings, punctuated by the late Saturday evening Last Quarter Moon. You are possessed at this time with a strange mixture of determination and relaxation, a heightened sense of responsibility for getting things done; and yet a feeling tone corresponding to internal reflection rather than to direct action. There is perhaps a feeling within you of cosmic expansion and resonating depths, and it indicates to you that whatever you do in the world of concrete manifestation is but a small part of a larger story of what you are really up to.

With this lunar phase you are likely to be spending a good portion of your energy and attention in mulling over the past several weeks of the cycle that began in early June, with the New Moon in your sign. You could see things quite differently now than even a few short weeks ago when that prior cycle began, in its rush of energy. You could be struggling to try to fit recent events into this new understanding. The fact that your ruler, Mercury, is now retrograde represents a significant piece of what you are experiencing, as there is a tendency to move toward adopting a more meditative posture. Mercury remains in its retrograde period and the aftermath for the next five weeks. While Mercury's station to direct motion occurs on July 20th, it does not escape its retrograde shadow until early August.

Saturn is also highlighted this month, in your sector of day-to-day events, the workplace, and health concerns, bringing a focus and a practical sense of limitation to these areas. It continues in its long period of trine with Neptune, located near the top of your chart. Neptune there represents idealizations and perhaps illusions concerning the above areas, and as well as for your self-expression in career, profession and other forms of outward-directed energy. You have been on course to make significant changes in the way that you approach your life direction.

With Mercury Retrograde for the entire month, the way that you achieve your goals and make your money could be coming up for review and reconsideration as well; there is a blessing bestowed upon you at this time and your very questioning in this area could come to be seen as part of that good fortune. Over these next five weeks, your subconscious process is in the midst of a subtle process of reorganizing and rearranging your life so that by mid-August you might barely recognize yourself.
