Venus entered Gemini this morning Pacific time at 8:04 AM, and made no, yes I said no, immediate aspects. A planet off on its own like that, freshly into a new way of expressing, will generally take that form and run with it. Relationships, artistic expression, finances, and those subjects of Houses with Gemini on the cusp in the individual natal chart, as well as those in Venus-ruled Houses, and those issues related to bodies posited in Taurus and Libra, are likely engaged in a chatty, effusive, information-filled communing fest; thoughts race, concentration suffers just a little, and ideas are almost literally bouncing off everything and everyone around us. Fun, but tiring, and a bit frustrating for the goal-oriented or those under serious Saturn or Pluto transits–they may resort to desperate, pulling teeth sorts of interaction–and are probably surprised when their ‘victims’ up and run away, first chance!

This lasts through sometime on the 13th, when Venus makes her first aspect, a square to Neptune. At that time we can expect relationships, finances, or values to conflict with the creative urge; we’ll find out what the cost is of implementing our imagination, or our dreams. Will we want to pay it? That’s an individual matter; the only thing we can be sure of is that there will be a price, and that we will need to seriously weigh the potentials of both sides of the equation (think them over, or maybe talk them over, with Venus in Gemini) before we choose.
