Astro Daily: May 20, 2021

Welcome to Gemini Season! The Sun arrives in the third sign of the zodiac, leaving behind the earth of Taurus for the air of Gemini. This is a season to explore new ideas and new perspectives, to get curious and weigh our options.

Gemini is the sign of the mind. It wants us to think and learn. It also is the sign of communication, travel, and sharing. With next week’s lunar eclipse in Sagittarius followed by a solar eclipse in Gemini in June, we can’t forget that this is a season that brings a shift in the narrative.

Gemini also loves stories and it’s possible that our’s is changing, especially if we’re a Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo, or Pisces. With the South Node of the Moon in Sagittarius, it’s also a season to examine the truths we tell ourselves or the stories we’ve accepted as gospel, even the limited beliefs that we find ourselves stuck in. Is it possible that we’re wrong? Next week’s lunar eclipse may ask us that very question.

Finally, the Sun’s arrival in Gemini is a reminder of two things. One, we’re coming up to another Mercury Retrograde, which begins on May 29. You know the drill. Two, Mercury will turn retrograde while square Neptune. Just make sure you’re doing your due diligence over the coming days and weeks. With Mercury square Neptune, there’s a tendency to not see things clearly, to project or fantasize, to get caught up in a story that’s not real.

If you are in AUSTRALIA or NZ, this forecast applies approximately for May 21.
