“Too close for comfort” IS a mood—and not one any Gemini will care to partake in as of this Monday, January 2. As celestial siren Venus jailbreaks out of Capricorn and your eighth house of secrets and stormy emotions, your need for freedom returns with a vengeance. Next up for the love planet? A tour through sister air sign Aquarius, which begins Monday and lasts until January 26. Over the past few weeks, some Gems may have gotten wrapped up in a secretive (and possibly sketchy) attraction, while others went into hibernation mode or even self-imposed celibacy. Say goodbye to all that! Starting in 3, 2, 1…you’re back to being a “live out loud lover” again. If it’s gotten TOO cozy in the couple bubble, reclaim some independence, Gemini, and you’ll bring romance back into balance.
Since the ninth house also rules travel, sparks may fly while you’re enjoying the tail end of your winter break. No matter your GPS coordinates, listen for charming accents between now and January 26. You could click with a sexy expat or a business traveler passing through your neck of the woods. Long-distance relationships aren’t the worst thing for your adventurous sign to explore. For couples, Venus in Aquarius opens the door to open and honest communication—a prerequisite for wiping the slate clean for 2023. Swallow the truth serum and bring your wishes out in the open, focusing less on the negative and more on the shared future you want to create.
On Friday, January 6 your monetary situation gets a heavenly boost, thanks to a potent full moon in Cancer and your second house of finances. While others may be getting back to work slowly and languidly, you’ll be eager to get funds flowing in. This full moon can bring long-awaited news about a bonus, raise, new gig—or all of the above. This is your reward for the hard work and sacrifices you’ve made over the past six months—since the Cancer new moon on June 28. Bask in the warm glow of widespread recognition and respect.

But don’t rest too long on your laurels. This is the perfect moment for a little shameless self-promotion. If it feels like you’ve peaked at your current gig, reach out to recruiters and companies you’d like to work with this year. Discreetly put the word out to your well-connected friends, letting them know you’re on the market. Could your resume and professional profiles benefit from a 2023 update? Ask your sharpest friends to give them a once-over. This lunar lift inspires more responsible (i.e., future-oriented) fiscal planning and money management. Besides the obvious “earn more than you spend” advice, investigate how new software, a financial adviser or some coaching could translate into money in the bank.
