It’s the season of the charismatic and charming Gemini. A time for picking up the pace after slow and steady Taurus season, this time is all about reconnecting, socialising and having fun.
It’s also the time to consider gifts to celebrate the dynamic air sign in your life. However, it can be hard to know what gift to buy for a Gemini, especially as they can be hard to pin down with their everchanging list of interests.
So, if you find yourself unsure of what to get them, our Gemini gift guide might serve as some inspiration. And while you may have already read our zodiac gift guide, this season is all about appreciating the adaptable air sign in your life.
Gemini (May 21 - Jun 21)
Zodiac symbol: The Twins
Element: Air
Ruling planet: Mercury
House: Third House
Modality: Mutable
Rules: The lungs
These adaptable air signs really are the social butterfly of the zodiac. As they’re ruled by Mercury, Geminis are natural communicators. They can keep their audience captivated by their magnetic charm and quick sense of humour.
Think of Gemini as everchanging. They're a sign who constantly evolves and looks at the next project to keep them entertained. With a constant thirst for knowledge, they're a highly intelligent sign, who are talented in many areas and pick up new skills quickly.
As their zodiac sign is symbolised by The Twins, Geminis are renowned for having a multifaceted personality. It can often be cause for misunderstanding as some may perceive this as Gemini being 'fake'. However, these signs are just so good at adapting to different groups of people that they often take on other people's traits to relate to them.
Those who have Gemini in their chart are charismatic, dynamic and fun to be around. They keep you on your toes, and this is why they're such an exciting friend to have because you're not quite sure what they'll do next.

Who are Gemini most compatible with?
Compatibility is all relative in astrology to the bigger picture, with the wider natal chart giving more insight into whether two signs are compatible or not. While sun signs provide a sweeping view of compatibility, looking at Moon, Venus, Mars or Mercury between charts gives a better indication.
The Moon governs emotions, Venus governs what we look for in a relationship, Mars rules passion and sexuality, and Mercury rules communication. Therefore, these planetary aspects may be of more use when looking at romantic compatibility.
Generally, Gemini may find themselves compatible with their fellow air signs, Libra and Aquarius. Air signs approach relationships in a unique way, often with a non-committal attitude that makes them come across as aloof to others. However, these signs value their freedom, possibly enjoying the process of pursuing a relationship more than actually being in one. Therefore, they may find understanding from fellow air signs that they may not get with the other elements.
Alternatively, they may find compatibility with the fire signs as they bring an element of excitement and energy to relationships. For example, their opposing sign, Sagittarius, might prove to be a challenging match. In other words, this is a match that works incredibly for them or goes up in flames.
