Daily Horoscope for Libra 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.

Today's Astrology Quote of the Day:
The cosmos is a vast living body, of which we are still parts...
The sun is a great heart whose tremors run through our smallest veins...
The moon is a great nerve center from which we quiver forever...
Who knows the power that Saturn has over us, or Venus? But it is a vital power, rippling exquisitely through us all the time...

Daily Tao

Govern a country with upright integrity
Deploy the military with surprise tactics
Take the world with non-interference
How do I know this is so?
With the following:

When there are many restrictions in the world
The people become more impoverished
When people have many sharp weapons
The country becomes more chaotic
When people have many clever tricks
More strange things occur
The more laws are posted
The more robbers and thieves there are

Therefore the sage says:
I take unattached action, and the people transform themselves
I prefer quiet, and the people right themselves
I do not interfere, and the people enrich themselves
I have no desires, and the people simplify themselves
