2012 Gemini Horoscope

Growth spurt

by Jeff Jawer and Rick Levine

This could be a great year for you because bountiful Jupiter returns to your sign on June 11 for its once-every-twelve-year visit. You might grow impatient waiting for Jupiter to enter clever Gemini, but there's much to do in preparation for the opportunities awaiting you. It would be wise to use the first part of the year to finish up old business while Jupiter moves through your 12th House of Endings. You are being given a chance to see how previous successes and failures are connected to recurring patterns in your life. You can fine-tune your current ambitions with the insights you gain, empowering you to plan for the future with newfound confidence.

Once the giant planet reaches your 1st House of Self on June 11, it's important to take your own counsel and trust yourself, rather than allowing the opinions of others to carry too much weight. Jupiter is Astrology's most fortunate planet, and its yearlong visit to your sign is a harbinger of the significant personal growth in front of you. This is not about achieving overnight success; nevertheless, a positive attitude can lead to advancement in business and growing public recognition. Even if a decision turns out to be a mistake, you are able to quickly learn from it and adjust your course accordingly. This is not a time to stand still, but rather a calling to set high goals in all areas of your life and then reach for the stars.

Although you can make a lot of progress this year, it becomes more challenging to be realistic about your life purpose when spiritual Neptune enters your 10th House of Public Responsibility on Feb. 3. This long-lasting transit can inspire you to seek more meaning from your work, yet it also complicates your professional aspirations if being of service becomes more important than making money. A lack of clarity about your goals could tempt you to stretch too far or miss your mark entirely when boundless Jupiter squares confusing Neptune on June 25. But uncertainty will likely be swept away by the opening act of a larger-than-life drama activated by the first of seven Uranus-Pluto squares on June 24. This dynamic conflict between independent Uranus in your 11th House of Long-Term Goals and intense Pluto in your 8th House of Intimacy can raise questions about who's in control of your life. You may need to re-evaluate your priorities and take bold action to establish new objectives. Personal and professional relationships are stressed when you make sudden changes that profoundly impact others as well as yourself. Fortunately, the issues emphasized this year won't require a final resolution until the last Uranus-Pluto square in 2015. Still, it's wise to start working on a major overhaul of your goals now, while the planets are still working in your favor.
