In astrology, the ruling planet is the one that governs the main energy of a sign, influencing its characteristics, values, motivations and the way the person tends to act in the world. Each native of the zodiac has a star that symbolizes the way in which their energy manifests itself in everyday life. In the case of Gemini, the ruling planet is Mercury.

Influence of Mercury in Gemini

Mercury represents thought, communication and exchange. “It is because of this influence that Geminis tend to have a quick, curious and restless mind, always seeking to learn something new, understand different points of view and explore possibilities”, explains astrologer Thaís Mariano. Furthermore, Gemini’s ease of adaptation is due to the planet’s dynamism.
