A very clever and curious Mercury in Gemini is now moving at lightning speed.  You may want to pay particular attention to your Ascendant sign and how others view your communication. They are interested in listening to you, what you have to say, and what you read or write. Mercury in Gemini is helping you to be heard. Do you have an overwhelming urge to become more knowledgeable and share what you know? It will be with more versatility, interest, and enthusiasm than usual, make sure you use technology to your advantage.

In the sign of Gemini, Mercury is in “rulership”, and operates at his best. This time he is shining a light on YOU. Do you find yourself scanning social media, YouTube, podcasts, magazines, reports, interviews, and any new websites for either tabloid or hard-hitting news? Are you up to date on voice notes, messages and emails? Are you finding emails you missed in the junk file? Is there some information to be shared?  You can expect them all with Mercury in Gemini.

Some of you may join TikTok or more youthful platforms, putting yourself out there; others will learn a new language, start a new course, or want to share what they know by teaching.

Watch mind games; Mercury is also a trickster in Gemini.  You know how to charm and others will love your sharp wit.  Pay careful attention to the detail, so you don’t come across as lacking substance or being nothing short of a gossip.   

This is an excellent time for the media to pump out juicy gossip.  Face-to-face interviews will also be fascinating and may reveal bombshells if the journalists are on their game.   What is coming out of politicians’ mouths?  They could easily switch directions at a later date. PR Agents are on overload, as are salespeople working on their client list and the benefits of buying what they have to sell.

Excessive use of your hands and arms (such as sign language to get your point across) is also a Mercury in Gemini characteristic. Yes, it appears you will be gesticulating just like an Italian - and we will be loving it.
