Gemini — Sunday 10 May 2026

*Mercury in Taurus* right now, which is doing you absolutely no favours. Your thoughts — usually quick, darting, pleasingly chaotic — are moving at the speed of someone pushing a sofa up a hill. You have things to say. You will say them, eventually, once you've found precisely the right way to say them, which could be Tuesday. When something goes wrong today, notice what you actually do: you find someone to explain it to. Not for their sake — for yours. The talking-through-it is the processing. If you can't reach anyone, you might explain it to yourself out loud, which is fine, except you're not great at disagreeing with yourself, so you'll just end up agreeing with your own bad decision with unusual conviction. **Venus is currently sitting in your sign**, wearing your clothes and being charming at your expense, which means people will like you even when you're wrong. Try not to use this irresponsibly. You will. *Sun sextile Jupiter* is benevolent and warm. You won't notice. You'll be too busy narrating. --- *Your coping mechanism isn't avoidance — it's explanation. Which would work better if you ever finished the sentence.*
