Gemini and The Lovers
The tarot card for Gemini (May 21 – Jun 20) is The Lovers. Its ruling planet, Mercury, corresponds to The Magician, and its element, Air, to the suit of Swords.
Why Gemini is The Lovers
Gemini is the sign of the twins, and The Lovers shows two figures under one angel: duality seeking union through choice. Gemini's mind weighs options constantly; The Lovers asks you to choose by your values rather than keep every door open.
Deep connection and a defining choice ask for your whole heart. Choose in alignment with your highest values and authentic self.
