\"Sun<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Sun enters Gemini<\/span><\/strong> on Tuesday, June 14, 2016<\/strong>, and will continue there through July 16th<\/sup>, the Vedic Summer Solstice. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Gemini is a sign ruled by Mercury, and it is called Mithuna in Sanskrit. It is a sign that encompasses a great range of energies. It is symbolized either by twins or by an embracing couple.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gemini is the natural 3rd<\/sup> house of the zodiac, which is about courage and risk-taking, your siblings and peers, short journeys and errands. It shows your capacity to get along with others and physical strength. You may want to look at how you deal with risk. Are you bold or timid? Do you take measured risks or do you risk too much without a safety net or back-up plan?<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr. Pillai<\/strong> talks about this in his book, Life Changing Sounds: Tools from the Other Side. He said that overspending to buy a luxury car when you can\u2019t really afford the payments is not a good risk. \u00a0However, \u201cA good risk is a \u2018calculated risk\u2019 which optimizes the opportunity for success\u201d.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As mentioned before, Gemini is ruled by Mercury, who is a planet of communication, information technology, intellect, business, and money. Mercury is no longer retrograde; he is moving forward in Taurus now, so there should be fewer interruptions to communications and technology. Mercury will enter Gemini on June 26th<\/sup>, transiting here through July 11th<\/sup>. He will be very strong in his own sign, so this will be a good chance to develop your mercurial skills. Learning something new in technology, business know-how, astrology, public speaking, writing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Venus<\/strong> <\/span>is going to be entering Gemini later today. So Sun and Venus will be together in Gemini until Mercury joins them on the 26th. Venus is a planet of love, the arts and wealth. Venus should feel at home in Mercury\u2019s sign and able to do his work well.<\/span><\/p>\n

From June 17 \u2013 July 12<\/strong>, Mars<\/strong> <\/span>will be back in Libra, so he won\u2019t be aspecting Gemini during that time. This means Saturn<\/strong> <\/span>will be alone in Scorpio from June 17 \u2013 July 10<\/strong>th<\/sup>. In an unfriendly environment, and now that Mars, the owner of Scorpio, won\u2019t be there to take care of things, Saturn\u2019s influence could start to feel harsher. Although Saturn is still retrograde, so he is looking back to Libra, where he was exalted, so that should mitigate it a bit.<\/span><\/p>\n

Saturn will definitely make you to look at the area of life that he\u2019s influencing in your chart and take care of business.<\/strong> He is moving through Scorpio, a sign of transformation. It\u2019s time to transform what\u2019s no longer working for us and the world. For your personal chart, find out which house (#1-12) Scorpio is for you.
