An Open Letter To Gemini For January 2026
Dear Gemini,
How are you keeping my dear friend, are you still ducking and diving in your earnest endeavour to keep ahead of the pack? Well, January seems to get off to a potentially auspicious start with the Sun metaphorically snuggling up to both the Lesser Benefic and Mars in the house of shared feeling and joint finances. Fingers crossed this implies you have adequate money to pay your bills and even more opportunities to spend agreeable time with your partner. Not only that, but things might start to improve with reference to your long term emotional compatibility. That is to say, some really personal issues might be dealt with successfully. Additionally, some old enemies or bad habits might be overcome and finally dissempowered and rendered powerless.
Indeed, some of my readers will begin to suspect they have turned a corner, and life is going to gradually get better and better. This might be particularly true for those Gemini born who are currently feeling rather alone and isolated. A new romance may be on the horizon if you keep your eyes peeled and put yourself around and about, so to speak. Although, I suppose all you need these days is a computer or a smart phone to reach out across the globe in search of a soul-mate. I must confess that I’m getting to be an old, old, man who is quickly becoming out of touch with all the exciting and liberating opportunities presented by modern technology; and perhaps even more out of touch with modern social conventions. I’ll let you into a secret: my car radio is permanently tuned into Boom Radio. Now that alone dates me. Tell me - dear reader - have you ever heard of the Hippies and the Summer of Love? I bet most of you haven’t. But, having said that, old age does have its compensations: “it’s better than the alternative” as Sir Winston Churchill aptly observed when he was asked how he felt about celebrating his eightieth birthday.
But I digress.
On the 7th January mighty Jupiter may begin to make his presence felt. If your Natal Horoscope is in a harmonious rapport with the current planetary alignments some of your worries may rapidly begin to abate. Indeed, a lucky few of my readers might be in receipt of a cash bonus or a little windfall of some description. Yes, indeed, things appear to get better financially and your Love-life changes up a gear simultaneously into the bargain. Long distance travel may also be on the cards for a lucky few. Either you are about to tear up your L plates; read a holiday brochure or ask Gemini to plan a breath-taking travel schedule which will enable you to escape the winter woes of the British Isles.
On the 10th January, the Moon squares Mercury, Venus the Lesser Benefic, Mars and Jupiter the Greater Benefic. Now it has to be acknowledged that a square aspect suggests an element of emotional stress and anxiety could accompany all the good times - but seen in context - a little emotional exhaustion might be worth all the effort. For example, who ever planned a wedding without getting themselves a little worked-up and confused by all the small details they had to cope with? The Houses of the horoscope under consideration are the Second, Fifth and Eighth. These may correlate to - amongst other things - significant financial expenditure; joyous celebrations, pleasure activities and joint finances and shared emotions, and perhaps a few secrets and a liberal splash of intrigue into the bargain.
15th January finds the Sun conjunct Mercury, Venus, Mars; and sextile Saturn,/Neptune; and trine Uranus. But simultaneously opposes Jupiter. An overview of this complex aspect pattern suggests - among other things - that significant progress can be made if you can balance enthusiasm, entrepreneurial vision, and ambition with wisdom and discretion. It's going to be all too easy to lose a sense of proportion and overreach yourself. Going too far might be just as costly as not trying at all. Nevertheless, assuming your Natal Horoscope resonates harmoniously with the current planetary alignments, this is potentially an auspicious juncture to reach for the stars!
The New Moon, at 19.00 Gmt on the 18th, seems to reward innovative thinking outside the box. However, caution and circumspection must be exercised before you put your plans into action. I can not over emphasise the importance of profound thought and deep reflection before you do anything excessively rash, absurd or indiscreet. Remember, you have everything to play for, and if you are entering new territory, so to speak, take sound practical advice from a reputable expert to counter-ballance your inexperience and vulnerability. Better safe than sorry has always been my motto.
22nd January seems to be a potentially good day. You might be feeling on top of the world for many reasons. Something home, family and domestic related could proceed well. Changing direction a little, circumstances related to the world of work reflect well upon you and your individual contribution to the team effort. Is promotion on the cards for you, I wonder? Perhaps this is a good day to reach out to a colleague at work and suggest expanding your area of influence in some way. This might involve travel and mutually beneficial financial rewards, or, sharing your living expenses.
Perhaps a few Gemini might start to work from home or for themselves. There again, do you have a personal connection with a young student? Perhaps something fortuitous will manifest for them in the near future or have they got some news to share with you? I suspect they may stand on the threshold of an academic breakthrough, award or outstanding personal achievement. This might be good news bursting with possibilities and signal new opportunities for advancement or a challenge to assimilate new skills.
A change of astrological emphasis suggests a minority of my readers might discover their dreams are going to come true in some way. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you all.
23 January, might be spent house hunting or doing something home and garden, property related. If you are viewing a new flat or student bedsit please look for damp. Furthermore, there might be someone living in close proximity who might be smoking something they shouldn’t or have a problem with alcohol. They may have the potential to become a pain in the butt.
But only time will tell.
Moving on to the 26th, the Moon in Taurus and the Twelfth House square both Mercury and Venus suggests that you might be looking for practical solutions to some secret/confidential matters. Figuratively speaking, stepping back in time or rolling back the timeline a little, might help you to identify what issues need to be dealt with. Perhaps what you are about to embark upon may have its roots in past conversations, planned ‘power-grabs’ related to financial or emotional issues. The concerns highlighted might rarely be spoken about and often deliberately ignored or avoided. The 12th House often relates to religious and spiritual quests and pilgrimages; a continued search for faith and the opportunity to finally come to terms with some painful emotional wounds. Indeed, you may at last come to terms with yourself or help heal your partner's traumatic life experiences, or, successfully manage to fill some ‘empty space’ or void in your shared emotional landscape. But approach your challenges with optimism, because the tide of life might finally be changing in your favour. My thoughts are with you.
27th January seems to mark an acceptance of the past and a strong determination to embark on a new future. Why do I believe this? Well, for a start, mighty Uranus offers unsuspected insights and imaginative solutions to many members of the Gemini community. A spark of genius ignites and enables/inspires you to dig deep and uncover some God given talent you have long overlooked or didn’t know existed.
In short: January draws to a close with you poised upon the threshold of many new experiences. Once again you feel confident enough to dream big and explore expansive intellectual panoramas ripe with new opportunities and rewards, both emotional and material. If your Natal Horoscope resonates well with the current planetary alignments, then you might be about to embark upon a wonderful journey, rewarding you both spiritually, emotionally and materially. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you all.
Well folks, that’s me all written out for this letter. Remember, no astrologer gets it right all the time. Astrologers are only human and therefore prone to error like everyone else. I, for one, certainly have my faults. If you don’t believe me just ask my wife. But make sure you have an hour or three to spare, because she is sure to write a long list!!!! LOL.
So until I write again, “God Bless and Protect”.
Bye bye.
Your sincerely,
Guy Doleman: Astrologer
