Gemini ruled by Venus

The following excerpt is taken from this more detailed post:

"So in the old rulership Gemini is ruling Mercury, and in the new rulership we've simply switched Taurus and Gemini, so that Gemini is ruling Venus, and Taurus is ruling Mercury.

Venus is said to be the planet of love, sensuality, pleasure, and attributed with that side of Taurus, but it's much more rudimentary than that. Love, in the most basic sense, is not romance.

Love is what the spirit finds while leaving material pursuits, and finds in other people. Love is how one feels for their brother or sister, neighbor, or any family member, it's has more purity and simplicity than just romantic love.

Venusian energy shapes our values, wherever it is in our chart. What we value, moreso than who we love. Venus is also how we love, and is not limited to the things we find pleasure in.

Gemini is a masculine sign, looking at the glyph we can see that there's two lines being joined together. Gemini rules the 3rd house of communication, the simplest form of relationship, love, socialization, and intellect.

Gemini has the key phrase of "I think", and the way we are attracted to other people and find more value outside of our material posessions is a mutable function of our psychology. They say we can't help who we love, but we also can't help how we love.

Hopefully that makes sense, and when we think of Venus, we can associate it with the mutable, social, masculine nature of Gemini with this new rulership."

Unevolved Gemini Traits:

Unevolved Geminis often struggle with consistency. Their mutable nature can lead to frequent changes in interests, jobs, or relationships, making it difficult for them to follow through on commitments. This can lead to failed relationships, and the inability to complete long term goals. Gemini can also struggle with restlessness and anxiety, because of their mutable nature, they are not naturally good at leading themselves to good health, and can fall victim to other people's ill will for them. Gemini also struggles with discipline, patience, listening in relationships, and emotional depth, due to the masculine and mutable nature of this sign. This can lead to manipulative behavior, unethical behavior, selfish behavior, and a general lack of moral code which can cause problems in relationships and legal problems, not to mention lead to dangerous situations. Gemini is a very young sign, so the development of morals doesn't evolve until virgo, which squares gemini, so it's important to lean into your other houses of matured energy. 

Unevolved Gemini Traits:

It's important for Gemini to set themselves up for health and success through having discipline and patience around their core values, which generally come to involve relationships with others. In order to have quality relationships with others, Gemini must follow through with their promises, maintain honesty and integrity, and show commitment through action and sacrifice. An evolved Gemini is happy to adhere to the path they know is right for them. Discipline involves practice, routine, and balance of the whole picture. Reconciling with the difficult angles is also important. Sagittarius energy is hypocrisy itself, there is nothing dualistic about this energy, Sagittarius must be sure of themselves because of their position. This energy is equally mutable and masculine. The square to Gemini (90 degrees) is Virgo and Pisces. Virgo is very particular, and can feel boring to Gemini, however Virgo's practicality and logic is what keeps the world together. Pisces might feel too wishy washy and emotional for Gemini naturally, but an evolved Gemini recognizes the power in our emotions, and values Pisces ability to let go and forgive.

  • The day of the 29th would be 2+9= 11 (We then add 1+1=2)
  • The year would be 1+9+8+8= 26 (We then add 2+6= 8)
  • Then we add all the single digits: 3+2+8= 13
