Lucky dates: 7th, 18th & 20th
It could feel like a month of two halves as Mercury goes retrograde in Leo around the 18th, slowing down the pace with anything that has felt dramatic. Creativity may seem a little dampened temporarily, but give it time. It may even be you have to divert from one issue to another, a little like jumping from the frying pan to the fire, to manage a flare up. A great Gemini super power is in being adaptable, which will stand you in good stead! Let others grab the reins occasionally.

All About Gemini
Were you born between 21st May and 20th June? Then, that makes you a Gemini!
Personality
Of course, you will know that Gemini is the definition of a dual personality. At one point they may be happy, charming and communicative, and the next – sarcastic, moody and critical.
Geminis have a child-like quality, which is very endearing – they are both talkative and sociable. This sign doesn’t really want to age or grow up.
You will find their attention is split much of the time, whether that is holding down more than one job, placing interest in multiple people and hobbies or just flip/flopping on thoughts and feelings.
Strengths/Weaknesses
In this sign, their weakness – a tendency to change paths is also their strength – they are highly versatile! They do tend to spend an awful lot of time analysing the feelings of others but could do well to work more on their own empathy skills. This sign can be manipulative and they will bend the truth if it is to their advantage. But their ideas flow fast and freely, and they are the ultimate multi-tasker.
Life Challenges
Gemini does have great verbal abilities, but they will struggle to know when to use them to good effect, and when they are just narrating their life with no reason. Not everyone needs to know everything about them, nor will they always be interested.
They can go through life looking for a battle, they need to realise it is not always essential to winning an argument, and it certainly isn’t worth lying or manipulating facts or people, as a means to an end.
Gemini uses sarcasm in many ways, to be funny, to get a point across, to be heard and to cut someone else to size, as well as a defence mechanism. They must learn that no everyone takes to this type of wit, and that not every situation suits a pun.
Pastimes
Communication pastimes often suit Geminis, so writing, coding on computers and languages are all popular. They might sit still to watch TV or a film, but don’t be surprised if they accompany this with another task. They may well play an instrument, and equally enjoy competitive sports like squash, or relaxing but focused activities like t’ai chi. They also love to shop!
Careers
Journalism, broadcasting, writing, teaching and advertising would all make great jobs for Gemini. Things that use their communicative abilities to great effect. Whilst putting them the centre of attention and keeping things interesting with no two days the same.
Prosperity
This star sign is very resourceful, they always seem to be able to get out of a tight spot, and land cash just when they need it most. Money in the bank for them is just not a priority.
Gemini is a natural gambler, they will often be the ones having a flutter on some race/event or another and can win even on a whim. Much to the chagrin of those around them with more expertise.
They can run up debts easily and are not shameful about borrowing from family or friends to get out of trouble when needed.
Relationships
If you are talking about first dates, then literally anything goes with a Gemini, they are up for trying new things. A boring conventional date is probably not the way to a Geminis heart.
Gemini does make for unpredictable romantic partners – there will literally be ‘never a dull moment’. You may have to get used to plans being swapped at the last moment.
Quite often this star sign will need to go off on their own and be independent, which can be tough on their other halves. Especially as they probably wouldn’t tolerate the same behaviour from their loved one – a typical Gemini double standard!
Leo and Gemini are a great love match, there would be much socialising and laughter between them. Aries and Aquarius could also work. A Pisces romance, on the other hand, is unlikely to go the distance, Cancer and Scorpio would also probably struggle long-term.
