1st July 2009 - 31st December 2009
GENERAL

Always antsy, during the summer you're on speed-dial! Perhaps because it has been slow going with so many of your plans, and you've had to wait for other people to get their acts together, from the beginning of July you're taking charge and not brooking any opposition. Even on holiday you'll want to be involved in interesting projects and physically active rather than soaking up the sun. You could be learning too, perhaps taking a course away from home. Jupiter's passage through the far horizons zone could send you to distant countries and there's unexpected gains to be made in foreign places and with international organizations. The Saturn-Uranus opposition continues to be your greatest challenge, especially in September, whether you'll be dealing with difficult family members and domestic dramas or surprise developments at work.

LOVE

The planet of love graces your sign during July so this is the month to watch for major romantic developments. You don't have to actively pursue love so much as follow your intuition in order to be in the right place at the right time. The fourth week of July could set your heart racing and if you are looking for a special day choose either the 10th or the 24th. Routine is the great killer of romance, so if you sense your relationship sinking into the sands of time, take a short break away with your loved one, preferably before the volatile configurations of mid-September. Single Geminis could find happiness with a strongly Aquarian mate and if you need pointers for a happier love life try ignoring petty issues and focusing on shared goals for the future.

WORK AND MONEY

There appear two groups of Geminis: those for whom unexpected offers and job developments have taken them in new and positive directions and those who have experienced sudden job changes and salary decreases. This is a feature of the Saturn-Uranus opposition, which on the plus side is helping you funnel your talents in new areas yet it has the unnerving effect of pulling out that rug from under your feet. Once again September emerges as the month with the greatest financial and professional opportunities yet it is also the most volatile. Focus your energies on long-term investments, and foreign companies - even on the other side of the world - and don't be afraid to spend money on retraining. This time next year you could be in a whole different place.
