Gemini is the zodiac’s quick, curious mind, forever collecting ideas, words and people. It thinks out loud, loves a good question, and rarely stays on one track for long.
The basics
- Symbol: The Twins
- Dates: May 21 to Jun 20
- Element: Air
- Mode: Mutable
- Ruling planet: Mercury
Every air sign shares a way of being: mental, social and relational; it thinks, connects and exchanges. And as a mutable sign, Gemini adapts: it flexes, blends and changes with conditions.
Its ruling planet is Mercury, which governs mind and voice. That ruler is a big part of why Gemini feels the way it does.
Born under Gemini? Remember it’s only your Sun sign. Your Moon, your rising sign and every other planet add their own colour, which is what a full birth chart shows.
