Mercury enters Gemini

Mercury crosses into Gemini on 17 May 2026 at 10:15 UTC.

An ingress is simply a body passing 0° of a sign, but it marks a genuine change of register: Mercury in Gemini operates through air means and at a mutable tempo. Mercury moves quickly and changes how conversation, negotiation and thinking are conducted.

Gemini is ruled by Mercury, so for as long as Mercury is here its behaviour is coloured by that planet as well as by its own nature.
