The Twins Inspire Connection
And Curiosity

What the Sun in Gemini means for your zodiac sign

by Emily Trinkaus

Ruled by Mercury -- the wing-footed messenger god -- airy Gemini is the connector and communicator of the zodiac, circulating ideas and information. Whether you're a Gemini, a fellow Air sign like Libra or Aquarius, or one of the nine other signs of the zodiac, you'll definitely feel this fast-paced, flirty influence as it gets lit up by the Sun!

The Sun's visit to the zodiac sign of the Twins inspires your curiosity about the people and places around you, and opens your mind to new perspectives and possibilities. The challenge is to extend yourself without losing focus, scattering your energy and overtaxing your mind.
