Mark your calendars for the 16th September, when Venus in Virgo forms a tense square with Mars in Gemini. Are our relationships rooted in reality and are they helping us cultivate the life of our dreams? Or are they holding us back in some way? Take a day to reflect, to make analyzes, reports, personal forecasts on everything you are working for, be it life, love, work or even money. Is your hard work worth it? Or is it just making your time here on earth even more difficult?
The results can lead to important issues and arguments that won`t be easy to solve but can be. Therefore, it is best to think before affirming yourself during this transit and to keep a journal of what you wish you could say, then evaluate your findings to decide the right way to make your feelings known.

There are three planets that Mars will connect with while in Gemini: Venus in Virgo, Jupiter in Aries, and Neptune in Pisces.

So when Mars in Gemini collides with Venus in Virgo on September 16, it will bring drama and put our relationships under the microscope, while the square with Neptune will be quite confusing and will occur as retrograde Mars stations.
Pay attention to mental health. Challenges for mental health (ruled by Gemini ) can flare up for people due to the pressures of daily life.

Exercise buddy. Physically, you may experience some energy dips during the retrograde, and the motivation to exercise can fall by the wayside. To keep fit, adopt Gemini`s favorite trick: the friend system. There has never been a better time to invest in a personal trainer or enlist your training-obsessed friend as a partner in responsibility. The Twins rule the neighborhood`s activities, so check out that group of hikers or a cycling club for the sake of motivation. Try a new eating plan to see how it affects your energy levels, whether you`re practicing intermittent fasting or making a commitment to stop skipping breakfast.
