Things are hotting up – and we're not just talking about the weather! Venus, the Planet of Love, officially joins the chatty, sociable sign of Gemini on 4th of July, marking the start of a very flirty period! This fast-paced, quick-moving energy is a stark contrast to the slower, more luxurious vibes of Taurus, which influenced love, finances, and beauty recently.
With Venus now in Gemini, you might notice things picking up the pace again, or feel the urge to get things rolling in these areas. This transit is all about fun, lightheartedness, and outrageous flirtation! It's a time for making memories, meeting new mates, and nattering until the early hours.
As an air sign, Gemini is right into good communication and the swapping of information. When Venus is in Gemini, we're buzzing for mental growth and stimulation, whether it's learning from a partner or sharing our own knowledge with a loved-up one.
It's important to keep an eye out for potential downsides of Gemini energy, like being a bit scatty, flaky, and on edge. Try to chill out about any feelings of needing to rush things or that things aren't happening fast enough. Being an air sign, Gemini embodies a blokeish energy, which might lead to a desire to be constantly on the go, getting bored easily, and flitting off to the next thing, or even the next person in the case of relationships.
When the Planet of Pleasure is in the sign of the twins, it rejoices in the possibility of variety. During the time Venus was in Taurus, we focused on quality over quantity — but now, all we want to do is have some good ‘ol summer fun! Gemini is, in fact, the social butterfly of the zodiac, so all of those friendly qualities will be infused into everything Venus rules: love, pleasure, social connections, and creativity — especially love. Singles will mingle and will even serial date, as the vibe is more about playing the field than playing for keeps for the next three weeks.
During a Venus in Gemini transit, dating is a real adventure - whether online or offline. If you’re single during this period, you’ll enjoy the unexpected nature of a blind date, but you’re just as likely to find a friendship suddenly turning to romance. Gemini’s energies can be quite fickle, however, so don’t necessarily expect a new attraction to last for long. Τhis energy will also make its way to those looking for a partner as you’ll take an intellectual approach to relationships, meaning that you'll be attracted to those who are funny, smart, and less emotional. Venus in Gemini needs variety and spontaneity, so as fast as a new love arrives, it could fade to make way for the next one.
Venus in Gemini reminds us of the power of communication within our relationships. Verbal compliments and intellectual compatibility go a long way and are undoubtedly a great way of strengthening our bonds with others. Existing relationships may get a boost from the Venus in Gemini transit, as this bright and breezy energy helps jaded partners to rediscover all the things about each other that make them laugh – in a good way. Mental stimulation will be key during this time, as Gemini’s influence brings a cerebral quality to all relationships. Foreplay begins at the dinner table over a fun debate. Sexting will also be the name of the game, as Venus in Gemini just loves using words to get warmed up and excited! But we'll also be taking a second look at our intellectual compatibility with our partners and deciding whether or not it's up to our standards.
However, some struggling relationships may come to an end during this transit, as Gemini energy will not hang around for long once it’s clear that love is lost. Unbridled flirting – even when it’s innocent enough – can also lead to a great deal of jealousy now. It is a time when one might question their bond based on what they have in common with their partner, as Venus in Gemini focuses on whether we are compatible with our significant ones on an intellectual level.
This airy vibe does tend to hold emotions at arm’s length, however, so during this astrological transit, sincerity cannot be guaranteed. Anything too sad or difficult is likely to be glossed over or ignored.
The planet Venus also speaks to how we handle our finances, our values and our resources. When Venus transits Gemini, there’s an easy-come, easy-go attitude toward money, with an emphasis on the go. This is not an ideal time to try to save or budget, although cleverness from the Gemini spirit can make some surprisingly astute judgements around now. With this transit, we tend to value things that spark our curiosity – the new and the novel is much loved when Venus is in Gemini, as is gossip and scandal and anything which gets us talking.
ARIES ♈
Blimey, Aries, Venus in Gemini has given you the gift of the gab! Combine Gemini's charm and wit with your usual Arian zest, and you've got a recipe for persuasion. You'll be as sweet as candy when you chat, and your communication skills will be tip-top. Calm and collected, you'll make decisions with ease. Socially, you'll be the life of the party, always up for a good knees-up. Get-togethers, picnics – you might even be planning some shindigs with your nearest and dearest. Family and siblings will be right behind you throughout this.
Mind you, it'll be hectic, so don't bank on much downtime. Get your kip in, because insomnia can be a right pain during this transit. Can't exactly be the party animal if you're shattered, can you?
Lonely hearts? This is your time to shine! If you're coupled up, communication is key – don't be afraid to have a heart-to-heart. Single and ready to mingle? Get out there – it's prime dating time!
TAURUS ♉
Love is in the air, Taurus, and it's affecting your wallet! This is a great time to get creative with making extra cash. Fancy yourself a writer or tutor? Now's your chance to shine. Feeling generous? A thoughtful gift for your other half is a good call, but be mindful of impulsive spending sprees.
You'll be feeling extra protective of your loved ones and their creature comforts. Their needs and happiness will be top priority. Thinking of buying a new place or sprucing up your current one? The stars are aligned for property purchases and home renovations.
Venus's visit to Gemini has you reflecting on what truly matters, Taurus. When you live by your values, your self-esteem gets a boost. Don't be afraid to ask for what you deserve – speak your needs and watch your confidence soar!
GEMINI ♊
When Venus transits your own sign, your whole Gemini being gets ready to party. This is an intensely sociable time for you and friendship is actually more important than love during this astrological transit.
Love will be in the air for Geminis. You will have a strong inclination towards the opposite sex and for some of you your crush can turn into a potent relationship. Those who are already into a romantic relationship will grow better in love and you will be particular about your looks and personality during this time and will spend a good amount of money in changing your wardrobe. You will do lots of self grooming and enjoy buying luxury products. If you’re single, focus on meeting new people who share your interests. Love may or may not follow, but at least you’ll have expanded your tribe – something that’s dear to your heart.
CANCER ♋
This Venus transit activates the most spiritual zone of your chart, but these energies are not terribly introspective. Instead, it’s a good time to join a spiritual group of some kind – socialise with others who share your views and beliefs or from whom you can learn.
Craving more alone time, Cancer? Old wounds from the past may be coming up for clearing. As Venus moves through Gemini, you're craving more closure and release. This period could signal the ending of an unhealthy relationship pattern or signal that you need more solo time. If you're coupled, this energy may ask you to find a spiritual connection with your partner.
This is a powerful time to let go and heal. Spending time with your subconscious is key, and engaging in a consistent spiritual practice like daily meditation or journaling will bring about much-needed transformation and a sense of renewal.
Spending time alone is a mixed blessing during this transit, so watch out for twinges of loneliness.
LEO ♌
The forthcoming Venus transit brings a surge in your social charisma. Embrace your natural enthusiasm and throw unforgettable gatherings – people will be drawn to your genuine warmth. Remember, though, that while making a good impression is important, focus on your personality, not extravagant displays of wealth. True connections are built on authenticity.
This is a time for leisure and exploration. Take a relaxed approach, delve into your hobbies and interests, and rediscover what brings you joy.
A word of caution, Leo: Your impulsive nature might lead you to jump into situations without fully considering the ramifications. Before reigniting old friendships or forging new bonds, take a step back and assess the people involved. A clear-eyed perspective will allow you to make informed decisions in your love life and relationships overall.
VIRGO ♍
Virgo, you're usually reserved, but prepare to be in the spotlight! With Venus in Gemini gracing your chart, others will be drawn to you. You might receive unexpected career rewards, perhaps even a romantic connection. Your hard work and dedication are boosting your self-esteem, and this confidence is undeniable. Don't be afraid to assert yourself! This is a perfect time to showcase your communication skills and meticulous attention to detail. Apply for a promotion or seek a new role where your talents are valued. However, be wary of shallowness during this transit. Don't be swayed by a position solely based on the salary.
On the professional front, things look promising for business owners, particularly those in family businesses. Those in entertainment or travel can expect growth. Government employees may encounter office politics. Be cautious, as enemies might try to damage your reputation. This is a favourable time for design students seeking to launch their careers.
LIBRA ♎
Love is on your mind, Libra, and with Venus waltzing through Gemini, you're taking a philosophical approach. What does your ideal relationship look like? If you're already coupled up, it's time to reignite the spark. Surprise your significant other with a novel bedroom escapade or a date night that takes you both outside your comfort zones. Deep conversations are especially stimulating right now, so lose yourselves in late-night discussions about the universe's big questions.
Venus also activates your travel sector, Libra, making it an opportune moment for a getaway. This transit also governs ethics and morality, so be prepared for a potential situation that challenges your principles. Can you back up your beliefs with action? Don't worry, Libra, because even as you navigate these complexities, Venus throws a lucky streak and a boost in popularity your way.
SCORPIO ♏
Forget casual flings, Scorpio – it's all about deep connections now! Dive headfirst into emotions, it's all or nothing, babe! You're craving openness and might finally feel safe sharing your deepest fears and past hurts with a special someone. This bravery will only strengthen your bond. Coupled up? Explore each other's desires – don't be shy!
Gemini is usually a chilled sign, but Venus is poking Scorpio's jealousy button, which could cause relationship dramas. Learn to tell the difference between a harmless bit of flirting and a real threat. If you can't agree on boundaries, maybe you're not as well-matched as you thought.
My advice: Embrace the chance to fall deeper in love and explore your hidden erotic desires. See you in a few weeks!
SAGITTARIUS ♐

Feeling chilled, Sagittarius? Venus in Gemini brings smooth sailing for your love life! Whether you're coupled up or single, this transit promises a delightful few weeks. Couples can expect extra harmony, making it a perfect time to solidify your bond. Don't get carried away with happily-ever-after dreams though, as any new connections might be fleeting. Live in the moment, Sagittarius, and don't overthink it – good things come to those who wait!
For single archers, get ready for a stroke of luck! Venus, the planet of love, is moving into the relationship sector of your chart. This means bright chances of meeting your soulmate or finding a partner. You might even consider starting a new venture with your significant other or a mate.
CAPRICORN ♑
Get ready to fizz with energy, Capricorn! This Venus transit gives you a spring in your step, potentially needing less kip for a few weeks. Seize the day and smash through your to-do list – work and family life can both thrive. But a word to the wise: don't rush so much you miss the details!
Love gets a practicality makeover, Capricorn. Your love language craves a bit of routine this time. Remember, a bit of predictability can be right sexy! Squabbles with your other half might erupt over minor things. Finding a better balance between chores and cuddles can be the cure. Even errands with your sweetheart can turn into a right laugh. Single? Love could be lurking in unexpected places – the office, gym, or even the local Tesco!
AQUARIUS ♒
Get ready for a vibrant phase, Aquarius! This transit ushers in a potent blend of romantic and artistic energy. Singles, it's your time to shine! Embrace dating with an open mind – you might be surprised by who you meet. And don't neglect your creative spark – this is the perfect time to delve into writing, music, or any other artistic pursuit that ignites your imagination.
This transit also brings an unexpected surge of romanticism, a quality often overshadowed by your logical nature, Aquarius. But embrace it! Open your heart and connect with that special someone, or reignite the flame in your existing relationship. You won't regret taking a chance on love. In fact, existing partnerships are set to blossom, and singles have a high chance of finding a fulfilling connection.
Beyond love and creativity, this transit brings a wave of happiness and recognition. Expect good news, especially if you're expecting parents or pursuing higher education. This could be the time you get accepted into your dream program! So, buckle up, Aquarius – this transit promises a period of personal growth, flourishing relationships, and exciting creative endeavours.
PISCES ♓
This Venus transit brings a double dose of Pisces magic! It's a time to spruce up your home and pamper yourself, boosting your self-esteem and security. Even if you're feeling a bit introverted, get out there and socialise – you might be surprised how much others appreciate you. This can be a real confidence booster, helping you value yourself more.
Family dynamics are also set to improve, especially if you lighten the mood with a bit of humour. You'll naturally want to keep everyone at home happy and comfortable, maybe even splurging on some luxuries for them. However, hold off on big investments in property or vehicles – it's not the best time financially and could lead to debt. Be extra cautious on the roads too, accidents could be more likely.
Finally, remember you don't have to wear your heart on your sleeve with everyone. Keep your emotions close to those you trust most. This allows you to open up more authentically while protecting yourself from those who might not deserve your vulnerability.
