Daily Horoscope for Scorpio 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.

Daily Tao

The Tao masters of antiquity
Subtle wonders through mystery
Depths that cannot be discerned
Because one cannot discern them
Therefore one is forced to describe the appearance

Hesitant, like crossing a wintry river
Cautious, like fearing four neighbors
Solemn, like a guest
Loose, like ice about to melt
Genuine, like plain wood
Open, like a valley
Opaque, like muddy water

Who can be muddled yet desist
In stillness gradually become clear?
Who can be serene yet persist
In motion gradually come alive?

One who holds this Tao does not wish to be overfilled
Because one is not overfilled
Therefore one can preserve and not create anew
