Don't you just wanna buy a few things right now?  Maybe just to make yourself feel a tad better, lighten up this time?  Well...why don't you make yourself a nice warm meal, and sit down, and let's talk about this.  You'll need some time!

Because this February is SO exciting in terms of the new places you're going to -- even if only in your mind (mind expansion!) -- and with new contacts.  AND you need to prioritize with your money.

Darling Gemini, now is the perfect time to break free from the idea that responsibility limits you rather than expands you.  Have you been robbing Peter to pay Paul?  Falling behind in paying some bills so you can pay others?

If you're taking care of things, you are less a slave, and able to make choices.  Remember what the great writer Jimmy Baldwin wrote: Someone who lives on his wits alone does not live very well...

This is all coming to a spectacular head -- just so you can be free once and for all!  It really goes back quite a few years...

(Yes, in terms of choices, for one, this horoscope is cheaper than therapy...) Think back to 1990.  Think back to that year.  Your financial arrangements changed.  You had to lose something in order to gain something and it was difficult. 

You triumphed at the end of it, as you always do.  BUT it really was by pulling yourself up by the bootstraps, wasn't it?

You need to get ready to sort out your complex about your money / other people's money / how you share / how you don't / what you expect from others -- and your sense of privilege.

Especially if you want your relationships to really work.  And especially if you want to feel really good about yourself.  Which you deserve to and should!

You do this by remembering the lessons you've learned in your second house of finances (never be without a job again!) and taking responsibility for all the ways you made it hard to have money for yourself.

Even when you do well later in your life, or have done well, it is hard for you to LET yourself do well.  Or to believe it.  If you lacked nurturing in a certain area, it's harder to do it yourself later, when grown up.

But this February, not only do you grow, but your very horizons grow and expand.  

Everything is happening in your ninth house of farther horizons.  In here you have: life-saving Sun, love and beauty planet Venus, enchanting Neptune, healing Chiron, brilliant Mercury (and your ruling planet) as of Wednesday, February 10, and an exciting new Moon on Saturday, February 13.

Your ninth house rules:

Other cultures and other lands

Travel

Education

Contacts abroad and far away

Mind expansion

Learning another language (including Computerese)

Different belief systems

Publishing

Academia

Law and lawyers 

Many of you will be in contact by email with people far away, in other cultures and lands, and you will be learning a new language -- whether it's an actual tongue, or on the computer, or a new way of thinking!

And speaking of the internet, there's a lot of importance placed on this and other communication tools this month.  You will profit from these but be patient!  Mars is retrograde in your third house of communications (and the internet) and so results don't come in immediately.

In fact, everything slows down just a little so -- be patient, dear Gemini, be patient! 

The hardest thing to do sometimes...

NEXT month, in March, your plans will go through and things will be manifested and made concrete.  But for now, just hang in there and finish what you started.

Because of this, you will also go up and down emotionally this month.  Feeling hope, then despair.  My best advice?  Practice meditation.  Take a meditation class.  Focus your mind.  Stop worrying.  Calm yourself. 

You are dying to get away and are dreaming of that exotic holiday -- why not for Valentine's Day with your sweetie? 

Even by yourself you will enjoy Valentine's Day more if you are somewhere new and different.  Do it, Gemini!  Even if it's a bus ride.  

Travel has a wonderful way of clearing the mind and bringing new breezes blowing in and this, with meditation, is just what the doctor orders for your over-active mind.

Then come back and get ready for your spectacular career boost in March.  Your career is due to rise all year, you will see!
