Leo | Gemini Season 2025
The Universal Overlay
Gemini Season | May 20 - June 20
The end of spring in the astrological calendar arrives with Gemini Season. It contains mutable energy to tie up loose ends. It taps into dynamism to find solutions and variety to generate possibility. It is an air sign, adding the energy of mind, tension, speed, and lightness. In short, it's a season to tie up the self-oriented agenda of spring, of figuring out what we want, why, and how to get it. Pollination occurs as we jet around to see what others are doing and bounce ideas off each other. We notice where we currently do and don't fit—we can feel a resonance through what we identify with or not and what seems to invite us in or not.
Move around and find resonant minds, peers, and communities. Find where you fit naturally. Let this help inform what currently feels authentic in you. Generate ideas with others. Bounce possibilities around, experiment, and try things without committing. Notice colors that express out of you—threads of light connecting you with others and harmonizing inner tensions. Stay flexible this season. Don't beat yourself up if you aren't the brightest mind in the room or feel people aren't interested in you. Be observant and recognize when your mind lights up the minds of others and vice versa. Seek resonant minds—those who think about similar things and in similar ways.
Where Gemini is in our chart indicates where we can get wrapped up in pointing fingers, entrenched in confirmation bias silos. This isn't necessarily done as a way to blame-shift. Instead, it stems from Gemini’s intelligence, which allows us to comprehend the intricate workings of the world. We observe the detailed effects of external factors on ourselves and our surroundings. The instinct can arise to cancel, name call, channel our inner mean girl, and judge (there's a bit of a teenage spirit this season). While it’s tempting to point fingers at potentially true or even necessary matters, it doesn't help us to mature. I’m not suggesting you completely avoid this behavior (I do it myself). However, be mindful of when you become bogged down in petty gossip or rely too much on external validation (hello The substance). Notice when you've become distracted around accountability for your personal growth and goals.
In summary, stay light and non-commital. Flirt with life, and try on different ways, people, and communities. Find your social resonance and a clearer sense of identity. Push your mind, learn new things, ask questions, and stay curious. Most of all, have fun. Find where and with whom you have a lighthearted good time and say yes to more of it. Be flexible, open-minded, and engage in kind self-speak as you iron out inner tensions. How the Season Activates You
Your Dimensional Growth
Sun In 11th House | colorful experiments
As the Sun moves through the signs and houses, it shines a light on a dimension of you. This helps you to become well-rounded and develop holistically.
As the Sun’s bright rays move into your 11th house, it awakens your experimental side and original quality of uniqueness. With Gemini ruling your 11th house, you bring a lively inquisitiveness to your questions about progress, humanity, science, and collaboration. Your curiosity could be endless when it comes to consciousness and the future. You bring a light touch as well as a versatile, bright mind to groups and pushing the envelope.
Ask lots of questions this season about things that push the boundaries of current human understanding. Bring your communities and peers together to experiment with a bit of fun and color. Connect dots that seem totally disparate and unrelated and see where the threads lead.
Use your connective threads to fuel groups with wacky ideas and fill your mind with new weird-science information. Come up with interesting theories and test them. Give your off-beat ideas room to play.
Last year’s Gemini New Moon seeds held refresh energy. Over the past year, you’ve likely purged old, broken-down questions, networks, and theories. This has made room for new crazy ideas and questions you’ve not yet pondered. Notice as we summit last year’s seeds this season if new brilliant and odd ideas are starting to feel exciting. This year’s Gemini New Moon (May 26th at 9:02 pm MT) again holds refresh energy in its seeds. Over the next year, continue to purge old questions, ways of experimenting, and industries that are confining. Stretch into new dynamic theories, groups, and innovations.
The animating guide of The Season
MErcury in 10th, 11th & 12th Houses | mental liberator
Mercury is the ruling body of the season, the archetype of our messenger and trickster. This aspect of ourselves will activate to respond to Gemini Season’s tone and circumstances, guide our actions, and give us a stance, or mythic script, in how we evolve, develop, engage life, and express.
Mercury is the planet that rules Gemini Season and can show us more about how the seasonal energies want to be directed. This swift-winged god starts in your 10th house of focus, responsibility, and aspiration. You may feel compelled to weave new collaborative possibilities in the realm of your professional aims or shake up new options around how you feel valued for your authority—direct your unusual theories and questions toward your ability to build with beauty.
On May 25th, Mercury will fly over to join the Sun in your Gemini-ruled 11th house.
This will be a time of excitedly playing mental games that break your ideas free, liberating radical theories around learning, information, connection, and community. Break the mold of social networks and do something out of the box.
On May 29/30, Mercury flies behind the Sun, bringing vulnerability to the mixing and matching you’ve been up to mental experiments. Your questions may turn inward to shake your inner workings free.
On June 8th, Mercury will glide into your 12th house, moving your radical ideas into the realm of dreams and fantasy. You might plug into inspiration and flow states that help your connective experiments find meaning and symbolism. Create electric art that nurtures social change. Bring imaginative understanding to different ways of thinking.
Your Ground and Materialization of the Season
Earth in 5th House | heart soothing
In tandem with dimensional growth in our solar season, Earth’s placement, directly opposite the Sun’s reach and exerting energy, shows the dimension of us that has become the fertile ground maturing underfoot. It’s normal to feel like our efforts in a solar season aren’t paying off, but they will, in time, when that sign becomes the Earth’s sign, the ground holding us, embodied and tangible. Look to the Earth sign to tend to what is maturing and growing in your roots and soul, that needs you to be receptive and caring.
The Earth orbits in the opposite sign to the Sun, showing where we can turn to feel grounded and soothed in a season. In Sagittarius, it’s through vision and perspective that we find a gentle landing place to hold us as we reach and make an effort with the Sun in busy and curious Gemini.
Moving into your 5th house, when your nerves are frayed from collaborative excitement and experimental ideas, turn to your heart, your personal creativity, and your willingness to be in the spotlight.
You have much grandness and perspective held in your warmth, and this can soothe you this season. Something is fertile in your heart, gentle and supportive. Find the expansive warmth you contain as a safe space to relax.
Around the Sagittarius Full Moon on June 11th, turn to your inner world. Daydream and journal about how your versatile and intellectual innovative style and your visionary, wise heart support one another’s reach at different times of the year.
Personal & Continuous aims
Your Radiant becoming
PHASE OF Leo’s YEARLY SEEDS | Resonating & Investigating
Separate from the Sun shining a light on our different dimensions through the signs and houses, we have another solar journey—a spiral journey of Conscious Evolution and Radiant Becoming—the path of illumination. I track this journey from your sign’s new moon to its next new moon, with a formula that’s a bit my own.
Entering Gemini Season, your yearly Leo seeds are in a phase of finding resonant relationships, fairness, and aesthetics around new heart songs that are starting to be felt. Your seeds this year are filled with rebirth energy and new chapters around how you assert your command, creativity, and warmth. Listen to how the world is receiving what is newly coming out of you. Negotiate and cooperate to find the right match between inner needs and outer desires.
Around June 2nd, a new phase will start to unfold that plunges your new heart songs into the deeper mysteries hiding underneath. Uproot and transmute wounds in your psyche, investigate what it means to be a powerful leader, renovate what your heart’s broken down spots to help a new chapter come in with greater vitality and life.
Your Archetypal Journey
Solar tone | A lighthearted leader
The planet that rules your sign gives you an archetype—a leading character flavor. This planet is a central part of how you show up and your personal agenda. We go on journeys in the skin of our archetypes, like leading characters in books and films.
With the Sun being your planetary ruler, your core journey is a spiral journey of Conscious Evolution and Radiant Becoming—the path of the Illuminated Leader. Following the journey of your ruler, not from house to house, but in an arc from Leo New Moon to Leo New Moon, a story of your Journey to Radiant Leadership unfolds.
With the Sun being your planetary ruler, you, in some ways, become the season we are in. Everything revolves around the Sun, and hence, often around you. It’s helpful to understand the quality of light people are looking for and where the spotlight and leadership energy are centered so you can more consciously tap into being the leader and creative you need to be this season.
In Gemini, take on a quality of light that is bright yet light; a creativity that is flirateous yet intellectual; a connectivity that is warm and generous. Bring joy to curiosity and command to expression.
Be a hub of connection with bright energy that attracts the pollination of ideas, connection, and commerce around you. Show strength through wiring mind to heart and heart to mind. Communicate with love and bring a bit of romance to the realm of wit and breeziness. Recharge your solar battery through mental challenges and brining others together.
