Mercury Enters Gemini
Mercury is the messenger of our cosmos. Quick moving and electric, the planet represents our thoughts, our minds, and our neurons firing, connecting, and communicating. It represents pathways and perceptions, insights and ideas, learning and language.
As Mercury moves through our cosmos, our perceptions move along with it, shaped by the sign of the zodiac the planet finds itself in at the moment. When Mercury enters Gemini on May 25, 2025, our minds speed up. They spark with ideas and insights. They activate with a desire for learning, information, communication, and sharing. Colored with the essence of Gemini, they become open, curious, inspired, and excitable.
Mercury in Gemini also invites adaptability into our mindscape. This time holds a beautiful opportunity to tend to the narratives, thought patterns, and inner voices that influence us.
Gemini New Moon
The day after Mercury enters the realm of Gemini, the Moon makes its entrance, too, and quickly transitions into its new Moon phase on May 26, 2026.
A new Moon meets us when there is something new awaiting us. It inspires new beginnings. It reminds us that we can begin again. It reassures us that the cyclic nature of life never gives up on us, offering beginning after beginning after beginning and opportunity after opportunity after opportunity.
This lunation, held in the arms of Gemini, is our invitation to open to that something new. It is a doorway through which the threads of our unconscious recall how to dance with our consciousness. Where the threads of our minds remember how to weave among the threads of the universe. And where feeling and thought, body and mind, present and future, and intuition and clarity come together.
This lunation reminds us that we are each the magician, the narrator, the author of our own story, speaking spells and creating through them. Within this new Moon, new words want to come in. New layers want to emerge. What story have you been telling yourself? What new story is ready to move through you? What ideas are knocking at the door of your awareness, your voice, your hands, your reality?
Mercury Cazimi in Gemini
The week and the month come to a close with Mercury cazimi in Gemini. A cazimi, coming from the Arabic word kasmimi meaning “in the heart,” is the coming together of a planet and the Sun. As Mercury comes into the heart of the Sun in its home sign of Gemini, it is infused with the Sun’s vitality and potency. On this day, Mercury begins again—and, therefore, so do our minds.
We have already been tending to our mindscapes, taking on new narratives and clearing out what has expired. This day is an opportunity to truly begin creating a new world within ourselves. To consider new possibilities and potential, perspectives and ideas and to begin designing how we desire to see the world, ourselves, and our lives.
