The time for relaxation is over, Gemini. With Mars in your sign, you are about to be “booked and busy,” Pingley said. This planet gives you the motivation you need to make big moves towards your goals. You’re competitive by nature, and until August 11, you won’t have the time or patience to let anyone get in your way.
Truthfully, you’ve been feeling a bit bored, but Mars does not tolerate stagnation, especially not when it’s in your sign. It’s time to get moving. You have big dreams, and you intend to achieve them. Take breaks as needed, though, because you are prone to burnout during this period.
