On Sunday, messenger Mercury enters inquisitive Gemini. You instinctively read between the lines now, suddenly motivated to get to the bottom of a matter. Your deeper sensitivity also gives way to intimate and emotional conversations. Next, Saturn begins spinning retrograde on Saturday (and stays retrograde through November 4). In the last few months, you’ve entered a period of self-discovery. You’re ready to take your hobbies, passions, and unique talents more seriously. But, progress has stalled. You feel inhibited and restrained. Remember: when you’re too serious, you stifle the creative process. You also feel ready to take a romantic connection to the next level: serious conversations take place about logistics and long-term planning. This romantic affair feels far from whimsical during this time.
