Gemini Monthly Horoscope for October 2010
When doing star sign forecasts, astrologers focus on the ruling planet - in other words the planet that rules your star sign.
Your star sign is Gemini, so Mercury is your ruler.
So to understand what's going on for you in October, I look at the movement of Mercury.
And this month Mercury occupies three different signs - Virgo, Libra and Scorpio.
Up until October 3 Mercury is in Virgo.
From October 3 through to October 20 it's in Libra.
From October 20 onwards it's in Scorpio.
During the first days of October, with Mercury in Virgo, there'll be a broad emphasis on your home life, and you could spend more time than expected with your family.
From October 3 to October 20, while Mercury moves through Libra, you're going to be very creative, and at the same time you'll know how to make people laugh.
And because of your light, Gemini touch, you can attract someone's romantic interest.
From October 20 onwards Mercury's movement through Scorpio encourages you to focus on routine matters, that might be rather boring.
As a Gemini you might take the view that you shouldn't do today what you can put off until tomorrow, but such an approach wouldn't be advisable.
There are things that need to be sorted out, and if you're slow on the uptake a small mess could quickly turn into a major problem area.
Though really, for the whole month it pays to be organised.
On October 8 Mercury makes a conjunction to Saturn, and you'll perhaps realise that creativity on its own can achieve very little.
You also have to work very hard, remembering that practice makes perfect.
The previous day, October 7, there's a New Moon, in the creativity sector of your solar chart.
This New Moon points to a new set of skills, which you can develop very quickly.
You might think that it's impossible, but by the Full Moon on October 22 or 23 you can see the first concrete results.
Right at the end of the month the planet Mars moves into Sagittarius, your opposite sign.
Relationships become important, in the sense that partners could become highly energised.
They'll want things done their way, and they won't take no for an answer.
However just because something is exciting doesn't mean that it's clever.
A shared adventure could become a shared disaster!
