A nice set of Virgo-shaped bookends!<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s right: on Monday, we start the week with the <strong>Sun entering Virgo<\/strong>. Rather than bore you all with the usual Virgo jokes about how they&#8217;re neat nuts and too organized and such, I&#8217;ll just remind you all that Virgo also has a reputation for being caring, thoughtful, and gentle. If we need to fixate on a Virgo stereotype, let&#8217;s focus on that one, shall we? And let&#8217;s double down on that this week, because <strong>the Sun spends the week square to Mars in Gemini<\/strong>. All else being equal, this could make things a little bit agitated. You may find yourself suffering from a little &#8220;stinkin&#8217; thinkin&#8217;&#8221; &#8212; be aware of that and be prepared to shrug off some of that from others.<\/p>\n<p>Now having said that, we need to talk a little more about Mars in Gemini. This would be a good time to get familiar with your birth chart, particularly which house of your chart is ruled by Gemini. Mars &#8212; the bringer of frustration and horniness &#8212; is going to be in that sign for a long time. How long? Due to a retrograde, it&#8217;s going to be&#8230; I hope you&#8217;re sitting down because&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mars is going to be in Gemini until nearly next April.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now pick yourself up off the floor. Jeez. It doesn&#8217;t have to be that bad. Keep in mind that although this is going to be disruptive for matters related to the Gemini house of your birth chart, it doesn&#8217;t necessarily have to be bad news. It can give you the ambition and energy to get things done in that department of your life. It can also make that department of your life at times a cranky disorganized mess. Be aware of it and take steps now. You&#8217;ll thank me later.<\/p>\n<p>One of the best things about astrology is that it can give you advance warning as to what things could possibly start going screwball in your life. And this week the zodiac offers you an opportunity to nip all of that potential Mars nuisance in the bud (at least somewhat). Just as the week started with the Sun entering Virgo on Sunday, on Saturday we get a <strong>New Moon at 4 degrees Virgo<\/strong>. And yes, that will be within square range of Mars as well. People who&#8217;ve been reading my work for a while know that I always try to recommend setting out your intentions for the coming month on the day of a New Moon. This week, have a good look at that Gemini portion of your birth chart. Think about how you can shore up, advance or repair the various people, places and things that fall into that particular house of your birth chart.
