Daily Horoscope for Aries Summary

Mars will move into Gemini on August 20, 2022, at 4:03 a.m. EST so we will see an obvious transition from slow-moving Taurus. When Mars was in Taurus, it was like it was in battery-saving, low-power mode. Now that Mars has entered Gemini, we can expect him to pick up a lot more speed and energy.

Mars is fire and action and what drives us and propels us forward. Our collective will and energy, pointing to how we defend ourselves and how we fight. With Gemini being a Mercury-ruled sign, pay attention to what is being said in public, as in the media. On a personal level, the messages we send to each other can be more passionate and direct. Mars in Gemini 2022 can help us develop our hobbies, and interests, try new things or experiment with new technologies.

Mars in a Mercury-ruled sign can have us on our toes. Mercury can be a bit of a trickster, so it would be best to prepare for either charm or cunning in communication. Just look atwhat happened during the last Mercury retrograde, a time infamous for miscommunication! We could get more of that. While that can show up as precise and eloquent speech, possibly even steamy texts or bedroom talk, that clever use of words can also create anxious and monotonous thoughts and even deceitful uses of language to trick or manipulate someone. Be on guard for that.

While Mars typically spends about 45 days in a zodiac sign, this transit will be an unusually long stay for Mars as there is a Mars retrograde, that begins on October 30, 2022, and lasts until January 12, 2023. Mars will not enter the next sign of Cancer until March 25, 2023. A long collective lesson we will have in our Gemini house and the clues about what your Mars retrograde story will be, start now. Pay close attention to any conversations you have, events that take place, people you meet, or messages you receive as they will very likely re-appear and be even more important once fall comes.

The Daily Horoscope for Aries

Be especially thoughtful about anything you say out loud or put in writing. Your messages will carry extra weight over the next several months. This is not the time to pick fights with your neighbors or siblings, as even seemingly small disagreements could turn into something bigger. Slow down and think before you speak. Start a daily journaling practice or write a book as you will have more time, energy, and desire to do so.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Rivers and oceans can be the kings of a hundred valleys
Because of their goodness in staying low
So they can be the kings of a hundred valleys
Thus if sages wish to be over people
They must speak humbly to them
If they wish to be in front of people
They must place themselves behind them
Thus the sages are positioned above
But the people do not feel burdened
They are positioned in front
But the people do not feel harmed
Thus the world is glad to push them forward without resentment
Because they do not contend
So the world cannot contend with them
