The earthy zen energy of Taurus turns caffeinated by the airy intellectual sign of Gemini. The twins will stimulate mental activity, peak our curiosity and compel us to become more social. The air will roast of friendly, light-hearted tones. On the same day, we’ll be pumped with an extra shot of java as Mercury comes home to the constellation of Gemini, sharpening our communication skills, ideas will seem to flow out with more clarity, a time when we’ll be hyped to share our thoughts with others. Though it’ll be a great pick me up from the recent heavy Scorpio Full Moon, some of us may still be consumed in mental overstimulation, with all talk and no action, even worse cause nervous tension or anxiety.
The heady buzz starts to lose its effect for a hot minute with Mercury entering Cancer mid month, influencing us to think on an intuitive and emotional level. Spoon fulls of sugar may be tossed in soon after, once Venus also enters Gemini mid June. Venus rules what we like and don’t like. In Gemini that list can turn into a long one, where we can flip from one to another. With the energy already on high, ADHD symptoms, suffering from the case of the-grass-is-greener on the other side is likely.
With no personal planets in fixed signs for majority of the season, it will take much effort to stay grounded. Look to your own chart to level that high-strung energy. I always channel my Scorpio in my 5th house laser focused powers to delve into my creative work, into my writing to keep me centred. If you have Leo planets, it can sustain any flitting indecisions by keeping you heart-oriented. The “all knowing” Aquarius can give you a higher perspective on see-sawing thoughts. Taurus can bring you to the moment, keep you in touch with your 5 senses and allow things to just flow. If you have no fixed signs in your chart, crystals like Florite is good for the Gemini scattered energy, or Amethyst, a relaxing and calming stone.
Gemini season lifts us into a light & flexible energy. A mental buzz stimulating friendly and social interactions, but a scene that can easily turn scattered & restless. Make use of your personal planets in fixed signs or the of aid crystals to help water down the potential hypersensitivity affects.
Fluorite is great for stabilizing a busy and chaotic mind. Its grounding and harmonizing properties can increase focus and coordination, aligning physical and mental coordination.
