In astrology, what does the Sun signify?
The solar sign influences our ego and motives, the moon governs our emotional character, and the ascendant or rising sign governs the energy we expend in the world. According to astrology, when these signs are combined, they provide a concise blueprint of your personality.
The Sun is in Gemini this week; Mercury is in Taurus until June 13th, when it will enter Gemini; Venus is in Taurus; and Mars is in Aries.
From May 20 until June 21, the Sun is in Gemini. With the Sun in Gemini, we are motivated by knowledge and diversity. Under this effect, we become more gregarious, intellectual, and insatiably curious. Because of our curiosity and awareness of all of our possibilities, we tend to spread our efforts. We’re more outgoing and adaptable, yet we can also be unreliable.
Gemini is the sign of duality and compromise. The energy of Gemini is intellectual, cheerful, perceptive, and flexible. It’s skeptical, willing to consider alternative viewpoints. We’re ready to trade, share, and exchange information, as well as teach, lead, and learn.
During the Sun-in-Gemini cycle, we receive information and profit from the impartiality of this transit. It’s a clever and crafty influence since we’re quick-witted, cheery, and entertaining, and we can easily adapt, watch, and listen.
On the other hand, we can be gossipy, too academic, or overly rational when a gentler approach might be preferable. We may be living too much in our heads, disconnected from what’s in our hearts, as we convey and digest information.
From April 10 to 29, and May 22 to June 13, Mercury is in Taurus. When Mercury is in Taurus, our thoughts are grounded, substantial, and practical. More imaginative thinking loses out to common sense. Under this effect, we communicate more intentionally, and our minds are more focused to the world of the five senses. We choose the tried-and-true over novel ideas.
We can simplify our lives by focusing on one item at a time, but we risk becoming too limited, conservative, or inflexible in our thinking. It’s a period of pragmatic intelligence and leisurely decision-making and mental processes. We may (and are satisfied with) rote, routine, deliberate, or monotonous labor and procedures.
From April 29 to May 22, and from June 13 to July 5, Mercury is in Gemini. We are unusually chatty, interested, and friendly while Mercury is in Gemini. Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and is at ease in the sign. We want to obtain a broad understanding of a variety of topics rather than go deeply into a single one.
While Mercury is in Gemini, we are exceptionally sharp when it comes to making a point or debating. Wordplays, jokes, and negotiations entice us, and we’re easily distracted. We’re more interested in trivia, knowledge nuggets, and detached remarks at the moment. There may be frequent shifts in mood and topic. We’re adaptable and quick to pick up new information.
From May 28 through June 22, Venus is in Taurus. Venus is naturally passionate, satisfied, and possessive in Taurus. We desire security and place a high value on things that last. We have a voracious thirst for pleasure.
Taurus is a sign that appreciates the present moment and the world of the senses. During the Venus-in-Taurus cycle, tangible and tactile gestures of love and romance play a prominent role. Under this influence, we tend to cling to someone or something we care about.
Excessive possessiveness and seeing our spouses as objects that we own or desire to own is the dark side of this.
In terms of money, Venus in Taurus seeks out products that are high-quality, robust, practical, and long-lasting. Now is a better time to hold on to our belongings. We prefer earthy, natural, and grounded things in art, tastes, and pleasures. This is a moment when we can be a little more indulgent. We prefer stability over excitement in love and pleasure because uncertainty disturbs us more than usual.
From May 24 through July 5, Mars is in Aries. Mars is at ease in Aries, one of the signs it rules, and as a result, its strength is amplified. Under this influence, our energy is spontaneous, forward-thinking, and even bold. Our competitive spirit is strong, and we are determined to succeed! We are busy, focused, and self-assured.
Our acts are straightforward.
We immediately seek out the quickest route from point A to point B. Impatience, arrogance, impulsivity, short-term memory, unreflectiveness, and self-centeredness are the dark sides of Mars in Aries.
With Mars in Aries, we pursue our goals straight-forwardly, confidently, and unashamedly. The same is true when it comes to expressing rage. Our desire to be first, to arrive first, and to accomplish things on our own is well-developed; our independence, enterprise, and initiative are well-developed.
This transit is better for tasks that demand courage and a lot of enthusiasm and energy, but not necessarily for a long time. We don’t want to look back or overthink things; all we care about is what we can do right now. We aren’t ones to mince words, so we go straight for what we want.
