HAPPY BIRTHDAY GEMINI THIRD DECAN
Gemini, you are a Third Decan twin. This ancient system of dividing your sign into three sections goes back to Egypt. It’s also a more accurate way of looking at both your usual chart as well as your birth chart. For you, born with the Sun in the final sector of Gemini, this week is really about planning a relaunch of your title and appearance in 2025.
This may be cosmetic surgery; weight loss; a new hair colour or cut. It may involve your ambitions to cast yourself in a different role, professionally. Happy Birthday! You can read more in Your Birthday (Hachette) on pre-sale now.
Aries
From now until January 11th 2025, you are at one karmic crossroads after another involving sexual or professional partners. This goes back 18-19 years. The issue with what you owe (spiritually) or are owed, is down to the South Node in Libra, in your sector of duets and duels. If you go back to your emails from December 2004 to January 2025 you will soon see what’s going on.
This cycle is all about your marriage in the context of what you owe or are owed. Divorce, too or bereavement. It is also about anyone who is madly in love, getting married, divorcing, or dealing with a separation, split or pre-nuptial agreement. The faces and names may change (or it may in fact be your husband, say) but The Song Remains the Same. And this may in fact be, or have been, a Plant and Page style duet in your life.
The last occurrence of the North Node in Aries and the South Node in Libra was from December 26, 2004, to June 22, 2006. January 11 2025 is the end point. This may make immediate sense to you. Otherwise, it’s fair to say this is Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year - when families and partnerships are emphasised.
Aries, using the Natural House System, which I trust for your natal chart, I can also tell you that if you were born with anything in Libra, even an outer planet like Uranus or Pluto, this week harks back to your natural need to be fair. To have equality in a partnership. To seek legal justice with another against you. Have a look at that in more detail on my website if you are a Premium Member.
Taurus
This cycle will dramatically change the amount of options you have (or can acquire), in terms of the property, mortgage interests and your assets as a property investor. It is also about your charity, business, shares, valuables and banking. Jupiter in Gemini offers bigger, better choices. The changes in November, December 2024 will come as a result of turning points involving other people’s stake, share, or other position.
In your natal chart as well, you have Mars and Uranus also in your Second House of all that you own, earn or owe. So the tempo is fast if not frenetic until July 20th. It’s in your favour, this Jupiter transit, as even the deepest issues about finance, your company, Wall Street, your home and the rest can be fixed. In your birth chart, using the Natural House System, you were born with the Sun in this same zone, the Second House, and are well-known for your values. If you don’t have your birth chart you can pick it up here.
People know what your asking price is but also where you will not budge. This is vindicated now. You shine at your brilliant best when you highlight your values. Our late Queen was a Sun Taurus and did this superbly well. You will find Mars and Uranus in your natal Second House, this week, push you to the very edge of that, but it’s to your advantage, between now and June 2025 when Jupiter finishes his Taurus transit.
Gemini
Whatever decan of Gemini you are (this week just happens to be a Third Decan birthday celebration) you are being coaxed to use your face and name in a more profitable way. Jupiter in Gemini is still surrounded by just enough transits (into July) to make this less about ego or narcissism and far more about sensible repositioning of your brand. Proserpina and Panacea in Gemini accompany Jupiter into July and suggest helpers. This may be your publicist or your hairdresser. Perhaps an employer who wants you to promote his business and thus promote yourself.
Jupiter is a gas giant in astronomy and incredibly, without knowing this, the Romans settled upon ‘Maximus’ as his title. What happens this week will help you maximise your reach. Can’t say fairer than that.
Cancer
Jupiter in Gemini works on the inside. Religion, say, or Tarot. Maybe counselling. This always results in a new beginning, and a new kind of life – usually one which gives you far more leeway. The cycle runs until June 2025 so you have time.
God as well as psychics? That’s quite a mixed bag. Yet the Twelfth House is all about your inner life. So this may be the bishop or self-help. Therapy or something more personal, as not everybody accepts God, or Krishna, or Buddha and so on. The Twelfth House is about your soul, spirit and psyche progressing. It’s accomplished on your own so if fate has decided you must be more solitary now, or you’ve actually made time to shut the door on the world, that can only be a good thing. A Jupiter transit is always a good transit.
In your natal chart, using the Natural House System, you have Neptune and Saturn transiting the Twelfth House simultaneously. So there really is a strong reason to be alone and be quiet. At the most, a confidante like a therapist, Tarot reader or priest might be involved, but you can’t really achieve that combination of escapism (Neptune) and boundary-setting (Saturn) without shutting the door.

Leo
Leo, with these Aries transits involving the North Node and Chiron, you have new global or cross-cultural choices to make. It may be that local is the new foreign for you. Perhaps your commitment to Zoom is changing. Life in June-August is all about trines and sextiles involving this Aries weather, which also pulls in academia, publishing, foreigners and travel – and even emigration.
Your Ninth House, ruled by Aries, is about lecturing (say), studying, pursuing a new edge of the web or seeing a book into publication. It’s very much about the web in translation and even accents which are so different to your own, never mind languages. It may be Ancient Egypt or New York, if you are in London. This transit by Chiron and the North Node in your solar Ninth House is built upon years of experimentation as you have had years of travelling, living abroad, studying, teaching, publishing, pursuing the edge of the web.
You’re not exactly new to the idea of bigger horizons, Leo. Your natal chart shows that Sagittarius rules this zone of your horoscope using the Natural House System. Should you have anything at all in Sagittarius, it will. be opposed by Jupiter, May 2024 through June 2025 and so everything grows. Everything becomes bigger. It may not always be comfortable but it’s huge now, or will be so, at some point (for around a month) by June 2025. If you don’t have your natal chart pick it up here.
Virgo
Jupiter in Gemini is accompanied by a success-potential discussion, paper trail or signature this week. Your ruler Mercury is also in Gemini in conjunction with the Sun. New job? New role? New qualifications? This is the chart zone (the Tenth House) which rules status as well as your career.
A big hit is another possibility, Virgo. It’s a terrific time to launch something new into the world; your chances of an outstanding result are at a 12-year high as you have this Gemini weather in your achievement zone, and those empowering Pluto in Aquarius patterns in your hard-work-is-success zone. In fact, your entire chart is lit, in terms of your job, any unpaid efforts or study. You’ve not seen this combination of empowering Pluto in your Sixth House and expansive Jupiter in your Tenth House, in your lifetime.
This week will move things forward. Of course, you can decline offers and options. Nobody is forcing your hand. Yet, in your natal chart, using the Natural House system, you have Ceres in your sector of success and status until December 7th, so the whole year looks like one reshuffle after another at work, or in your chosen field. Perhaps in the family if that is where your main role and status is. September-November 2024 in particular looks dramatic. So do plan ahead. Think bigger. There will be demotions, departures, arrivals and promotions more than once and you will find a space opens up for your own ambitions. You can pick up your birth chart here if you don’t have it.
Libra
Jupiter in Gemini wants you to increase your vision from binoculars to telescope and take in that particularly appealing foreign or multicultural option. If you continue to live your life with the old views or ideas now, in regard to your place in the world you will find the price of staying with the same old perception of yourself – the same old game – could mean a missed chance.
This transit in your solar Ninth House is not matched in your natal chart, but there is still a surge of opportunity with the internet showing up. Also, neighbouring places (France to England for example) so something can be foreign and yet adjacent and hold promise. Double that message if you have Gemini factors in your birth chart. This may be Canada to the US for example or New Zealand to Australia. Hong Kong to Singapore.
Looking at both your natal and solar chart, I can see plenty of Third House (neighbouring country) options which are the gift that goes on giving, until June 2025. Scotland to England is another obvious example. And if you do have Gemini factors, you will love what unfolds even more, as Jupiter will form a rare 12- year conjunction with them as he transits Gemini. Pick up your birth chart here if you don’t have it.
Libra, this interesting combination of Ninth House and Third House patterns in both your Sun Sign and birth horoscope will enable you to accept offers, invitations and options, opportunities and even rapid rewards this week. It may be that you are asked to house-sit at the same time that your long service leave arrives, for example, or more ambitiously - you swing a deal at the United Nations and NATO. It is extremely common for publishing, the worldwide web and academia to be involved on these transits too.
Scorpio
During this time, Scorpio, you will find out how much huge potential you have by June 2025 - at least in terms of how you are seen with your business, finances, property. So, allowing yourself to leave certain limiting aspects of your budget attitude behind, without that particular old game –will give you a genuine sense of good timing for a financial relaunch in June 2024.
The transits now in Gemini are in your Eighth House of marriage and mortgage, for example, but also family and inheritance. This complex area of your chart has huge potential for a really thumping great solution, long overdue. This is also where we find trust funds, divorce settlements and the like. This is quite clearly about a professional or sexual partner. Perhaps your ex or a first partner who is no longer here. I say that because your chart also shows Uranus and Mars in Taurus now, in your Seventh House of duets and duels.
When we go to your birth chart we also find the Seventh House tenanted by the South Node of karma, using the Natural House system. Do you have Libra factors? A lot of Scorpio people do. If so, then life as it was 18-19 years ago is coming back to you now. You owe, spiritually, or are owed. Repayment is final by January 2025.
The Eighth House of your natal chart is also where we find your Scorpio Sun. You are identified with (say) your inheritance, or your marriage, or your divorce settlement, or your children and any legacy to them. From Trust Fund to legal matters, this zone of your chart is not just about numbers, it is about the most intense, personal issues which define you! Don’t have your birth chart? Pick it up here.
Sagittarius
The same old karmic issues about your friends, social life and group involvements will be on your agenda at this time as life 18-19 years ago repeats – at least thematically. Maybe literally. Don’t let that bother you, though as you are on the way to closure on January 11th 2025. This friendship, social media and group cycle will give you a chance to lean hard on previous experience. It’s time to sort all this out, Sagittarius. Karma keeps rolling until you realise you have been paid out, or are paying out, spiritually.
Do you have Aquarius factors in your natal chart? If so, using the Natural House System, we find Pluto with all his power and intensity, also in the same chart zone. It’s the Eleventh House of groups and friends. This has not happened for 248 years.
This week puts a few things on the line. You may owe a group, spiritually, or owe a friend. Perhaps you are owed. The circle has to turn and what happens will help a process of quite long closure until January 2025.
If you do have any Aquarius factors (if you are a Millennial, you may have Uranus or Neptune there) then your allies and circles define you. The clubs, teams, bands, charities, political parties, unions and so on (even something like Substack) describes so much of your life and character.
That’s why the transits now in your Sagittarius chart, in this same sector, are so important this week. Don’t have a birth chart? Pick it up here.
Capricorn
Well, you now have privileged wisdom to draw on. You should feel utterly calm and confident about your next move in terms of your lifestyle, health and workload. If you have a part-time or full-time job, this cycle will help you manage your working life, by delivering the same people and situations for new assessment in a different way.
Jupiter in Gemini is about opportunities to have a bigger life (and a better life) on many levels. So it may be moving to a workplace near a swimming pool, for example, or just retiring from a job you never liked in favour of having another child. It’s intensely personal.
The Sixth House of your solar chart reveals the tiny details of your daily life, from breakfast; running a bath; chopping spinach - to cocktails (or not) when the sun sets. Pyjamas and paperwork.
When, every 12 years, Jupiter enters this zone of your horoscope, you are given the very biggest and best opportunities to resolve issues or pursue fantastic new options. It’s like this, now.
Should you have Virgo factors in your natal chart, Capricorn, you will find huge focus on these, as you may also be having transits by Saturn and Neptune (the opposition); Uranus (the trine) and Ceres (also a trine). If you don’t have your chart you can pick it up here.
Aquarius
Aquarius, the sense of familiarity and ‘been there, done that, written the screenplay’ you have about a digital or media issue now, may well be down to past experience as the Aries North Node weather goes right over some karmic matters from a few years ago.
Now you can steadily get to the point where you can be a detached observer about the media, education, publishing and the web. This cycle ends on 11th January 2025.
Aquarius, there is still plenty of space for you to extend yourself in terms of perfecting your YouTube or social media craft, website business, HTML skill or online trade – just a little more. This is a useful cycle for exploring options, as you are at a point in your life when you can afford to branch out more once January closes a chapter for you. This week is part of that process.
In your natal chart, Jupiter is in this same horoscope zone, using the Natural House System. You will see AI (Artificial Intelligence) open up broad vistas for you, along with changes which are still yet to happen by June 2025, affecting the largest online and media organisations. This won’t be so much a trickle-down advantage to you as a big wave to surf.
Do you have Gemini factors? Then a rare, 12-year Jupiter conjunction will pass over these by June 2025 if it has not already done so. This is the time to launch a new online venture or explore better ways to get your message across.
Aquarius this transit is also associated with karma involving your brother, sister, cousin and neighbour from about 18-19 years ago. This will help you make sense of what is going on, which is so stuck. You are owed, or you owe, spiritually. That is why this long process has to take place. It ends in January. Need your birth chart? Go here.
Pisces
You can choose to stretch yourself further with your own worldwide web situation now – as the new Uranus and Mars transit in Taurus puts other faces, in other places, firmly online very rapidly.
The choice is yours. Pisces, are you prepared to use everything you have seen and learned, and make a really adventurous move? Even inside a Zoom box? The central question now is, ‘Should I get back out there and travel online in quite the same way again?’ and only you can provide the answer.
This is a Third House transit of your solar chart (your Pisces chart) by Uranus and Mars which speeds everything up until July, in terms of the web.
In your natal chart, the Third House transit of Jupiter suggests this is a good thing. So June and July may be frenetic at times, with particular websites, including Substack, but ultimately you gain.
If you have Gemini factors in your natal chart you can double that message. Jupiter will be in conjunction with those by June 2025 if he has not already passed across your chart. Need your chart? Go here.
What is happening in your solar chart is a declaration of independence, by you and/or others, over a number of weeks. Uranus in Taurus is quite familiar to you, as it has been here since 2018 and so for the last seven years you have seen yourself achieve things with the media, the web and other forms of communication (spoken word) which would have seemed out of the question in 2017 and earlier.
And so it goes. This week is part of a two-month process of quite radical change with the web in particular. You need to be set free from something or someone, perhaps. Or maybe you are seeking freedom through something or someone. Well, it will happen in a rush and a push, to quote The Smiths. And I do like quoting The Smiths.
My favorite Smiths song, so thank you!
Thanks - but I think I am second Decan- born June 7?
