A warm hello.

With Venus and Mercury in Gemini, we’ll be inclined to talk more about our feelings and relationships – what matters most to us, what upsets us, what we don’t but want to understand.

Putting our thoughts and emotions into words will be an insightful process, other’s ideas and input may be helpful, also hearing about other people’s experiences may give us valuable new food for thought.

​Wishing you joy,
Karen
