March 10 - 17, 2010:

Your week ahead with your baby

Mars has been retrograde for some time, but it goes direct on March 10, bringing renewed energy. Mars is still in Leo, which makes it possible for small squabbles to become big dramas or tempers to flare, but things will settle quickly as Mars gets turned around. This is how your baby feels about this week’s planetary change.

Your Gemini baby this week

Gemini is thrilled with this week’s planetary change: She loves action, and Mars going direct in Leo brings all kinds of fun. She’ll be chatting nonstop, showing off and command your attention however she can! Baby Gemini loves to flirt, and you’ll find her making as many social connections as possible this week. (If you want her to eat, keep mealtimes low-key, as she’ll be distracted by any opportunity to interact.) Your Gemini toddler may well start wandering off and find new friends, so be especially vigilant!

Your Gemini baby in 2010

The year ahead has serious overtones of change, but lighthearted, curious Gemini should be able to tolerate the intensity every sign will experience. The dynamic alignment of Saturn, Pluto and Uranus will show your baby how to work harder than he might ordinarily. As a result, he’s likely to progress quickly and be a bit ahead of the curve developmentally. In fact, you’re likely to find your little one is generally happier with a known path – Gemini has so many interests that it’s easy to get lost and distracted.
