Aries
Saturn, the planet of responsibility has settled into your health and well being zone and with Venus in the same part of your chart October 8 – November 9, you could become a little fanatical about working out and your gym time. October is a great month to change up your work out and try some new classes, hire a personal trainer and make a new gym friend too. Just don’t overdo the exercise or you’ll end up stiff and sore and sitting on the sidelines watching everyone else break a sweat!
Your ruler Mars goes out of phase November 15 – January 30, 2008 in your home and family zone – a long time to be retrograde and not so fantastic for you. You’re sure to find resistance to household obligations (your kids will refuse to pick up after themselves, your partner will seemingly revert to his bachelor life for a few weeks) and you’ll feel more than frustrated. Luckily for you, a Full Moon in your communications zone November 25 puts the right words in your mouth at the right time and order is restored.

Your 5th house of fun and creativity is highlighted October 10 by a New Moon and you find new ways to exercise and enjoy it – bike riding, walking, jogging is so much easier now that the weather has warmed up – particularly for those of you shivering through one of Melbourne’s coldest winters. But the gym is where you feel most at home as you have people to compete with (and admit it Geminis, you are a competitive person).
Mercury, your ruler and the planet of clear thinking goes out of phase in secretive Scorpio October 9 – 24, your 6th house of health and then retrogrades further back into Libra, your self-fulfillment zone October 25 – November 2. It will be a challenge getting any sort of exercise in at all – there will be delays and detours every time you try to sneak out the door with your work out gear shoved in your gym bag. Once Mercury moves direct November 2 however, you need to plunk down more cash for your membership and workout outfits. Mars retrograde in your self-esteem zone means you will be unusually harsh on yourself through late January 2008. Give yourself less to criticize twins.
