GEMINI VIBES
Gemini vibes are clever, quick-witted, social and spontaneous! This energy rules communication and those with strong Gemini energy in their natal charts are often charming, persuasive and adaptable. It also rules relationships between siblings, neighbors and friends. Gemini vibes rule research, learning and teaching, while bringing resourcefulness and an open mind to new perspectives. This energy is often ‘busy’ or on-the-go and has a vast capacity for multitasking; it also rules decision-making, transportation and short-distance travel.
Celebrate Gemini Vibes by being spontaneous, exploring new learning opportunities, getting out in your community, planning a weekend road trip, taking on a writing/teaching/public speaking project, or meeting new people and exchanging fresh new ideas!
Yoga Postures for tapping into Gemini vibes:
