Gemini Season's Here, and She's Feeling Restless

It’s officially Gemini season, and it’s ushering in some serious feelings of restlessness.

Two months ago—when the sun was in Aries—we felt a bit edgy with all the social distancing and restrictions, and the world felt intense and chaotic. As we moved into Taurus, things started to slow and we began adjusting to our “new normal” of staying home and laying low. Now we’re moving into the social sign of Gemini, who’s about sick of all this social isolation.

Let’s take a look at some other planetary energies that will influence us today.

The Moon is Square Saturn at 1:54 AM

Overnight, the moon in grounded Taurus formed a square with Saturn in heady Aquarius, bringing with it some feelings of sadness, loneliness, guilt, or shame. There’s a good possibility you woke up in a funk, maybe even after dreaming of past relationship failures, loss, or grief. A bout of low self esteem could keep you from openly sharing your emotions, and you might be feeling more isolated and distant from your loved ones that you have been lately.

The good news is this mood is fleeting, and you might have even slept through it.

The Moon is Sextile Mars at 8:09 AM

Our Taurus moon formed a sextile with Mars in Pisces this morning. This is a combination of rooted emotions and compassionate initiative that could lead to a good opportunity to fight for a dearly held cause. We’re feeling competitive and also cooperative. Taking the lead in a situation or project could fulfill our needs to be a meaningful part of a group while maintaining independence.

The Sun Moves into Gemini at 9:43 AM

It’s the season of the twins! Gemini ushers in late spring, as well as an attitude of restlessness. When the sun was in Taurus we were more concerned with security and comfort. With the sun in airy Gemini, there’s more of a desire for play, socializing, and movement—things we may feel we’ve been denied the past couple of months. We may need to find some creative ways to fulfill these desires. Getting active outdoors is a great idea now that the days are growing longer.

The Moon is Conjunct Uranus at 2:11 PM

The moon in earthy Taurus goes conjunct of Uranus—also in Taurus—this afternoon. This can bring about sudden flashes of insight as our psychic abilities are stimulated. We’re feeling impatient and impulsive, and have an urge to act on gut instinct. The moon in Taurus offers emotional awareness, and Uranus in Taurus brings creativity and invention to the table. This could be a great time to try out some off the wall ideas. Don’t think too hard about it. Just do.

Venus is Square Neptune at 7:03 PM

Venus in playful Gemini squares Neptune in dreamy Pisces tonight. We’ve been feeling sensitive, romantic, and desperate for social interaction and pleasure. You’re on the hunt for a new sense of independence and possibly strange eroticism.

This, without a shadow of a doubt, can lead to new pairings or partnerships. Stand guard though, because this particular transit—which will last a couple of days—can dissolve these new relationships just as easy. You’re prone to misunderstandings and jealousies. It might be wise to wait it out for a few days before you jump into anything new—or end what you already have.
