Fair is fair, right Gemini? Today your ruler, Mercury, turns retrograde in your partnership zone until December 15. For the next few weeks, communications could feel strained in your closest relationships. Table touchy topics until mid-December and stall on signing contracts if possible. Coming to any sort of consensus could feel like an exercise in futility before that. Even if you DO hammer out an agreement, it could change before the year is up. On a positive note, this Mercury cycle could reconnect you to an important collaborator from your past, possibly even "the one that got away" from you romantically. Proceed with caution.
