Happy Birthday, Gemini! (May 22-June 21)

In this column, renowned astrologer and best-selling author Maria Shaw Lawson, who has offered advice on MR. PERSONALITY, BLIND DATE and SOAP TALK, tells those of you born under this month’s sign what to expect for the next year.

Gemini is one of the few zodiac signs that can actually exhale this year. Their forecast period couldn’t be better! Jupiter visiting a “money” house in their solar chart brings new sources of income and opportunities to financially flourish. Next year, the benefits flow from the areas of education, long-distance travel and helpful people. 2021 is a special time for spiritual growth, too. Short trips and excursions are favored in the late summer. A challenge with a sibling or cousin may arise but can be worked on with careful communication. The autumn brings happiness within the home and special times with family. Any projects underway should be completed by mid-december. A series of summer eclipses and Venus retrograde may keep the Twins on their toes, but after mid-july, life becomes sweeter. The Venus retrograde in May and June may cause friction in current relationships but some Gemini, to their delight, may see the return of old friends and lovers. Career aspects are strongest in the fall. Old friends appear to celebrate the holidays. As the new year unfolds, Gemini will face a fork in the road. But both directions hold promise and success. So you can’t make a wrong decision!
