Gemini season brings with it a shift in energy, and Tatler’s astrologer Casey Chan explains what it means for each star sign.

The opening of Gemini season brings an instant shift in energy, where we now have more space to create and receive the life we want, especially after the rollercoaster ride the past month.

When the Sun moves into quick-witted Gemini on May 21, we become more open to newness, curiosity and communication. On the same day, we have the Sun in harmonious aspect to Mars in Leo at 0 degree. This amplifies the energy of new ideas and creative potential in our world. Whatever we are interested in creating, we can use the high energy that Gemini brings to go for what we really want—just make sure your ideas are grounded in practical reality and not just momentary adrenaline rushes. 

Closer to the weekend, challenges may arise that demand us to step up our game. As our ego Sun comes to square disciplinary Saturn, conflicts and resistance may surface, forcing us to look at the core of our problems. Ultimately, it is important to use these situations as our empowerment. At times, the ego may want to take the more comfortable route, but this cosmic alignment is asking you to walk the higher path and follow through on the necessary steps towards your highest alignment in life.

The week by rising sign

Aries
New ideas are flowing in, the mind is buzzing with inspirations. Spend time in your local cafes, join events in your community, be open to making interesting connections.

Taurus
Take matters of possessions lightly. Priorities, habits, what we thought were our values can all change in an instant. Lean into what feels true to you in this moment.

Gemini
Release all stagnancy and presumptions about how you should live life. Try a new hairstyle, wear something that’s “so not you” and see how things land.

Cancer
Old beliefs that are ready to go can be transformed in an instant. Try not to hold onto any old identities too tightly, allow what was previously hidden be shown and released.

Leo
Bring your wits and fun to all your social gatherings. You’re buzzing with inspirations of the bigger pictures in life, embrace your visions passionately.

Virgo
It’s okay to have doubts about your life’s path and what you’ve worked hard to achieve. Question everything with genuine curiosity and not dogma.

Libra
The world is your oyster. Start a new book, talk to strangers, go to an unknown place. Life has much wisdom to share with you, be open to it.

Scorpio
Embrace the dance between density and lightness. Just because we’re navigating something that feels serious and deep doesn’t mean we can’t bring ease and curiosity into it.

Sagittarius
Communicate, communicate, communicate. Nurture your relationships by sharing your words and asking questions. Let the intention be to uncover something new about your partner.

Capricorn
Bring in adaptability into your systems, routines and organised structures. How can you be more fluid in your day-to-day life? How can you benefit from change?

Aquarius
Let playfulness be your top priority. Have fun, make jokes, don’t take yourself seriously. Engage with the joy of life, admire the beauty of creation.

Pisces
Balance your thoughts and emotions. If changes are happening in your home and you need to tend to your inner world, give yourself the permission to retreat into a private space.
