Gemini Horoscope for Today
A horoscope for Gemini (May 21 – June 20) based on the actual positions of the planets. Its main part is the Moon: it moves into a new sign every two to three days and sets the theme of the day. The other planets move more slowly and show the background for the month and the year.
The Moon
Until 5:40 PM: in Libra, 5th house; from 5:40 PM: in Scorpio, 6th house.
Until 5:40 PM. The Moon is in the 5th house, the house of pleasure, love and children. By tradition, this is an easy day: for dates, games, creativity, hobbies and time with children. The pull toward fun is stronger than usual — including toward needless spending and risky bets.
From 5:40 PM. The Moon is in the 6th house, the house of work and health. By tradition, the day goes to duties, routine and order: working through your to-do list, household tasks, taking care of your body. Good for setting a routine, cleaning and doctor's appointments; tradition doesn't expect it to feel like a holiday.
Times shown are New York time (US Eastern, UTC−5). Planetary positions are from the JPL DE421 ephemeris. Houses are counted from the sign: the sign itself is the 1st house, the next one is the 2nd, and so on. Interpretations follow the rules of tradition; the text is the same for everyone of the same sign.
The other planets

- Mercury — in Scorpio, 6th house sign ruler retrograde
Mercury in the 6th house: work details, schedules, emails with colleagues, getting documents in order.
Mercury is retrograde right now. By tradition, this is a time to review and redo: old issues and people come back, and new contracts, trips and tech purchases are best planned with room to spare.
- Venus — in Libra, 5th house retrograde
Venus in the 5th house is, by tradition, one of its best placements: romance, pleasure, creativity.
Venus is retrograde right now. By tradition, a time to return to past relationships and spending; anything new — a romance, big purchases, a wedding — is best started after it turns direct.

Mars in the 3rd house: sharp words, arguments, hectic trips; tradition advises extra care behind the wheel.
- Jupiter — in Leo, 3rd house
Jupiter in the 3rd house: a year of learning, trips, new acquaintances close to home and successful negotiations.
- Saturn — in Aries, 11th house retrograde
Saturn in the 11th house: your circle of friends narrows to reliable people, and plans become more realistic.

Houses for Gemini
In a horoscope by sign, your sign counts as the 1st house, the one after it as the 2nd, and so on around the circle. For example, for Gemini a planet in Sagittarius is in the 7th house, the house of partnership. Here are all the houses for Gemini:
| House | Sign | Area of life |
|---|---|---|
| 1st House | Gemini | self and well-being |
| 2nd House | Cancer | money and possessions |
| 3rd House | Leo | communication and short trips |
| 4th House | Virgo | home and family |
| 5th House | Libra | love, children, creativity |
| 6th House | Scorpio | work and health |
| 7th House | Sagittarius | partners and contracts |

Ruling planet
The ruler of Gemini is Mercury, the fastest planet after the Moon. Three to four times a year it turns retrograde for about three weeks, and tradition considers this especially noticeable for Gemini: a time to redo, double-check and return to old contacts.
How to read this horoscope
