By Kathy Nguyen 3 mins

Gemini is the Zodiac sign that’s all about movement and change. Learn how to vibe with the season and maximize your self-care this season, no matter your Sun sign!

Listen to an audio transcription of this post

Key takeaways:

  • Gemini season spans from around May 21 to June 21.

  • Explore new ideas, relationships and perspectives during this time.

  • Gemini's duality is represented by the twins Castor and Pollux in mythology.

  • Certain items can help you embrace Gemini's expressive energy.

When Does Gemini Season Begin?

In Western astrology, the Gemini season is the period between May 21st and June 21st. It's the third sign of the zodiac calendar following Aries and Taurus. This astrological sign is represented by the symbol of twins: Castor and Pollux.

The sun's entrance and celestial alignments

During this time, the sun enters Gemini around May 21st, marking the official start of the Gemini season and bringing a fresh air of social energy and an opportunity for profound insights into your value systems.

Some astrologers also observe the Gemini on May 25th as a significant day within this period, symbolizing the energy of the twins becoming more prominent.

The Gemini on June 3 signifies the peak of the season. The Full Moon on June 7 and the New Moon on June 8 also occur during this time, adding to the dynamic energy of the Gemini season.

The dual nature of Gemini

The constellation Gemini is represented by the twins. They reflect the dual nature of this astrological sign. This duality can manifest in different aspects of our lives, including our social interactions, communication styles, and thoughts. The Gemini season is often associated with an increased desire for socializing and networking. So get out there and have some fun!

The influence of Venus and Mercury

Mercury and Venus, the planets that govern love, communication, and intellect, play a significant role during Gemini. When Venus moves overhead, this can influence your relationships and social life, while Mercury's influence can heighten your curiosity, adaptability, and how we express yourself.

Have a new idea? Act on it. The sign of Gemini encourages duality and new experiences.

Embracing Gemini energy

The Gemini season is an opportune time to embrace the energy of the twins, explore different perspectives, engage in stimulating conversations, and nurture your social life. It's a period that encourages spending time with loved ones, seeking knowledge, and cultivating your ability to see multiple sides of a situation.

As the Gemini season unfolds, recognize its influence on your life and harness its energy to foster growth, understanding, and connection with those around us.

Expect the Future to be Fun

If you follow astrology at all (even just for fun), you know that Taurus season was a good time to work hard and focus on building a strong foundation. And now Gemini season ushers in a completely different energy. So what's Gemini season all about?

Gemini season encourages: 

  • Seeing new things

  • Exploring new ideas

  • Exploring social relationships

Whether your zodiac sign is Gemini or you're just looking to have a great summer, you're going to need to look and feel your best. Here are some ways to manifest a harmonious flow with the season.

So...What Is the Meaning of Gemini Season?

When it comes to astrology, most people tend to think about their sun sign. For example you might hear someone say "I'm a Capricorn". But our sun sign is merely one aspect of our zodiac charts and the 12 astrological seasons we move through during the year. It is said that these seasons influence us in various ways.

So the meaning of Gemini season simply means that the Earth is currently under the constellation of Gemini.

The Story Behind Gemini

Still want to know more about the meaning of Gemini? We gotchu. 

Gemini season begins with a rather unusual story

If you really want to understand the meaning of Gemini, you have to look to mythology. In Greco-Roman mythology, Castor and Pollux are twins and half-brothers. Pollux's father was the god Zeus while Castor's father was a mortal, making Castor immortal and Pollux not.

A zodiacal constellation with daddy issues

Pollux begged Zeus to become immortal like his twin bro, Castor. So Zeus granted Pollux's wish by transforming the twin brothers into the constellation called Gemini.

We don't think that's what Pollux meant when he meant immortal but Zeus was tricky. They now have their forever home together in the stars.

So What's the Deal With the Gemini Zodiac Sign?

In astrology, Mercury serves as the planetary ruler of Gemini. Mercury is the planet of communication, matters of intellect, and swift movement. This is why life gets hard during "Mercury retrograde". It's because good communication, intellect, and movement become more difficult.

Gemini is a mutable air sign. In astrology, the definition of "mutable" is linked to adaptability and "go with the flow" energy.

In short, Gemini season is the perfect time for socializing, connecting with friends, and having free-spirited adventures

'Tis the Season of the Twin Stars of Gemini

So when is Gemini season and what is the meaning of Gemini? It's the season when the Twin Stars of Gemini align! You'll have a great time getting connected with others and with your inner self with the help of bright stars, Castor and Pollux, the Gemini twins. You shine as brilliantly as any star and we hope that the Blissy items we've recommended bring you luck and happiness!
