What do the planets have in store for you this week? The planetary influence this week is a Full Moon in Gemini which is forming a Grand Trine with Mars and Jupiter as well as trines to the Sun from Saturn and Uranus.

During the Gemini Full Moon, you may be pleasantly surprised by the progress you are making with the project you initiated during the New Moon. Additional insights can make your endeavor seem even more worthwhile, once you incorporate them. You\\u2019ll have a sense of accomplishment once you are able to share what you\\u2019ve learned with others. No doubt, people will be impressed by what you tell them. Your quest for knowledge can be personally fulfilling once the answers come to you, and you get a chance to show off just a little.

You can be rather talkative and very social, full of wit and charm. Make sure that you spend time in the company of others, for your astute opinions should not go unexpressed. You appreciate your independence more fully during this time.

It would be better to schedule activities with friends instead of romantic dates because you may not feel particularly open to the burdens that love relationships can sometimes entail. You may feel the most happy with an excellent book in front of your face. You may also take this time to consider ways to rein in runaway thoughts and nervous tension if you are prone to them. Give up a bad mental habit as the moon begins to wane.

Tune in on Monday 6pmPT/9pm ET to find out more\\u2026'
