Gemini 2012 Year Ahead Forecasts

Togetherness and travel are strong themes as the year begins. Both Venus and your ruler Mercury get together to encourage you to exercise your itchy feet. If you're able to get away from familiar places you will feel as if the year hast started really well. Mars in your family zone, however, will keep you tied to responsibilities closer to home especially between February and April.

Even so any problems you may encounter within your own four walls will start to ease in the spring when career developments help combine personal objectives with monetary rewards. You are starting to learn the value of hard work. A loved one could be urging you to be more careful with your cash but you could miss out on a lot of fun purely because you're more focused on making money than spending it! Try to make time in your schedule just to have some fun. You will deserve it!

As it is, you will need change and variety as the year continues. With Venus in your sign between mid May and early August there will be moments when you will have no desire or inclination to settle into any kind of routine. You will be looking for fun and excitement and you might find this through getting out and exploring the new and untried. Preferably in the company of a close friend or your partner.

Venus has influence on your income sector in August. This suggests the possibility of an increase in income or money coming your way from a grant, bonus or financial pay out in the summer. There may be something to celebrate and this has to do with an achievement of someone you live with or are close to.

Your energy levels will be high enough to cope with any task or challenge you take on in the autumn. And there will still be plenty spark remaining for romance! Close relationships will get a boost from an unusual and intriguing remark or insinuation towards the end of October.

Around this time of the year, your natural charm and charisma will attract friendly interest wherever you go. If there is a new recruit in a group that you are involved in, or a new neighbour who you'd like to get to know a bit better, don't be nervous about approaching them and suggesting you meet up somewhere or maybe you could attend a community function together.

If there has been any tension in the home: problems with parents or an older family member, this will start to ease towards the end of November. You will feel more able to deal with the financial issues which probably lie at the root of the problem. You may, however, feel as if you aren't really prepared for the events that are about to take you by surprise as December begins. Be ready to flow with the tide.

You will also welcome the chance to repay a kindness someone did for you earlier in the year. People are worried that they are asking too much in December but you will be feeling generous and giving. Besides, as a Gemini, you do like to pay your debts.
