Mercury In Gemini Wants You To Explore New Perspectives & Lighten The Mood
Like a gust of wind, Mercury sweeps through curious Gemini from June 11 to June 26/27, calling you to tap into the force of your inner social butterfly. Ruling over your mindset, perspective, and intellect — Mercury in Gemini inspires the circulation of new ideas and reminds you that it’s safe to change your mind upon discovering new information. This agile planet feels at home in Gemini because it's free to roam, discover new realms of information. Expect an increase in stimulating and insightful conversations (and even debates with yourself). Your mental energy is picking up speed, and you'll find it easier to laugh off your mistakes and articulate your thoughts without inviting tense opposition and stubborn disagreements.
Let your truth be heard
The universe calls you to be an empowered ever-growing student as Mercury in Gemini piques your interest in learning from other people. Share and brainstorm new ideas enthusiastically, and hear people out instead of shutting down their opinions that differ from yours. The talkative spirit of Mercury in Gemini asks you to be receptive to feedback; an increasing variety of perspectives will inspire the open-minded and challenge the intolerant. Keep a lighthearted and easygoing attitude, and instead of over-identifying with your thoughts, allow yourself (and others) the freedom to consider alternative and contrasting viewpoints.
With an influx of new information reaching your ears, Mercury in Gemini brings gentle warnings to avoid unconsciously regurgitating information that you haven't checked or verified. Be wary of thoughtless gossip, or passively accepting information and misinformation projected through the media. Speak and listen with grounded awareness of your inner voice, stick to the facts, and admit when you don't have all the answers.
Be explorative and experimental
Mercury — the astrological messenger and shapeshifter — in Gemini turns your attention to new and exciting ideas, projects, and hobbies. However, once you get your fix for exploration and experimentation, you may decide not to see your plans through to the end. The scattered air of this energy could influence your concentration and consistency — think: getting distracted midway through typing a text, forgetting to hit send, and wondering why you haven't gotten a response from the receiver. While this quick-witted energy is great for catching up with friends, family, and colleagues in a casual and fun setting, be conscious of whether you're inconveniencing people by being inconsistent, making contradictory statements, or backtracking the things you said with certainty.
