Mercury enters Gemini

In 2022, Mercury is in Gemini from April 29th to May 22nd, 2022, and then from June 13th to July 5th, 2022.

Mercury spends extra time in the sign of Gemini this year due to its retrograde from May 10th to June 3rd, 2022. During this retrograde, Mercury returned to Taurus, but now returns to Gemini on June 13th.

When Mercury is in Gemini, we are especially communicative, curious, and sociable. Mercury feels right at home in Gemini, one of the signs that it rules. We tend to take more pleasure in gaining a superficial knowledge of many subjects rather than dig deep into any one topic.

When it comes to making a point or debating, we are especially astute while Mercury is in Gemini. We are attracted to wordplays, puns, and negotiations, and we’re easily distracted.

Characteristics of the Mercury-in-Gemini cycle:

• interested in trivia, information tidbits
• manual and mental dexterity
• language mastery, talkative, flexible
• able to mimic, quickly grasp, decide promptly
• changes of mind/subject, detached observations
• nervous energy
