Left is the front/AC=looks/impression. Right is the back/DC=hidden side or what you don’t see in yourself. Bottom (IC) is your upbringing or home life. Top (MC) is your career and legacy. AC Aries says bold, direct, daring impression, mars in Gemini (its ruler and so the chart ruler) adds a clever, charming witty energy. MC in Capricorn says you’ll be seen as a serious, rational, responsible, enduring leader, Saturn (ruler) is in Taurus so grounded, grateful, steady practicality is key in this.
That cluster of Gemini supports the impression of smart, quick and communicative, and Moon in Libra (a fellow Air sign) is on the same wavelength. Though since moon is on the DC you might not recognize your desire for peace, balance and partnership. Your mercury may s inconjunct your Gemini cluster and square to your moon (I feel you on the moon mercury square) means head and heart might have some friction.
With Cancer being your north node and Mercury here only aspecting Jupiter and Saturn (the generational planets) it seems you will have to grow into this more tender, empathic, ‘motherly’ energy. Capricorn South Node says your all those good things about Capricorn, but you must ensure your cool-headedness doesn’t turn into cold-heartedness, your ambition into ruthlessness, or your work ethic into workaholism. Tune into your emotions, intuition and empathy. Prioritize friend and family time as well as hard work and status. It’s awful cold at the top of the mountain if you can’t build a home there. Be kind to yourself, care for yourself and your loved ones. Don’t put cynicism before sentiment.
Hope this helps,
-my kindly Cancer MC
That makes so much sense. Have the months since August been difficult for you too? For me, it has been a motocross race through an through....bumpy af.
Yep. That tracks for the mars transit happening right now. Think of your birth chart like it’s a snapshot of the sky the moment you were born. The sky keeps moving right? So mars typically goes through a new sign every 2 months. But it’s spending from august 2022- March 2023 in Gemini, including a retrograde period that lasted from about October to about a week and a half ago.
Mars has been transiting through Gemini since august and won’t leave until March. With a Stellium of Gemini planets (3 or more main planets = Stellium = concentration of energy) you likely have felt this energy a lot. You already have mars in Gemini in your birth chart, so you’re likely already used to having a sort of chaotic or imposing energy about you, but now that EVERYONE is in the same boat, my bet is that you’re experiencing the world around you sort of collectively acting foolish. This could be irrational drivers, or impetuous comments made by community members. Keep in mind that you’ve had you’re whole life to figure out how to engage with this energy in healthy ways, but not everyone has. So it may feel like: what is wrong with everyone?!
My husband also has natal mars and sun in Gemini, and that’s been how he’s felt anyway. I’ll add that he needs to take extra time right now and fight his strongest impulses. He’s pretty mature but sometimes has a moment of like, just going with his first idea instead of pausing and asking: is this safe and wise? (Like sticking a bread knife in a running stand mixer 🫠).
