Two heads aren’t just better than one in 2024—beginning this May 25, they’re a whole lot luckier, as Jupiter, the sign of abundance and good fortune, swings into Gemini, the sign of the Twins. The pair-bonding will be epic during this yearlong cycle, which lasts until June 9, 2025.

Rule no. 1 for Jupiter in Gemini: Ditch the “opposites attract” strategy. Instead, look for kindred spirits and people you naturally vibe with, no questions asked. If they share your taste in music, sick sense of humor, and overall life values, jackpot! While you might not find an exact carbon copy of yourself, you could get pretty close during this twinning cycle.

This shift could feel seismic, so you might need to ground yourself near May 25. For the past year (since May 16, 2023), Jupiter has been plodding through process-driven Taurus, which has tried the speedy planet’s patience—and probably yours, as well. It was two steps forward, one step back, as Jupiter in Taurus served important lessons in being the tortoise rather than the hare.

Now you can grab your bunny ears, and hop to it. Jupiter in curious Gemini gets everyone in an experimental, innovative headspace. But FOMO is also especially strong during this cycle, so don’t forget to pause and breathe. In Gemini, Jupiter serves randomizing currents of energy that can be anxiety-inducing if you overdo it.

The truth is philosophical, expansive Jupiter isn’t super comfortable in frenetic Gemini. Because Gemini is the opposite sign of Jupiter’s home base, Sagittarius, it’s said to be in “detriment” here, which is a less powerful position. When in Sagittarius, Jupiter flies free, pursuing all the visionary projects and goals without getting bogged down by minutiae. Gemini is all about the exacting details and the present moment, which can slow impatient Jupiter’s roll.

How best to tap into this paradoxical cosmic cycle? Think globally, act locally. As worldly Jupiter lends it broad-minded perspective to Gemini’s neighborly domain, you can make your neck of the woods a lot more interesting. If there’s already a thriving cultural scene, find ways to get more involved.

Writers, podcasters, and media-makers, get ready for a heyday. Words do not escape anyone during opinionated Jupiter’s roll through communicative Gemini. If your friends’ eyes are glazing over at your descriptive storytelling, save the blow-by-blows for your YA novel or YouTube channel, where people will be ready to savor every bite.

Transportation is also influenced by Jupiter in Gemini, and this could be the prompt you’ve been waiting for to get that electric car, bike, or start using ride-sharing apps and public transportation, instead of racking up all those parking fees.

Perhaps the most important reminder of all is this: While Jupiter is in personable, communicative Gemini, there’s no replacing the magic of an IRL conversations.”

Warning: Mobile gadgets are also Gemini’s domain, and with more-is-more Jupiter here, your usage time could skyrocket. If you’ve been feeling attached to your cell phone (and who among us isn’t, really?), you might decide to break up with a few time-sucking apps or even create some device-free occasions. Scrolling has been proven to release dopamine but also provide an ensuing crash. Liberate yourself from that high-low rollercoaster, and get your hit of dopamine from healthier sources, like sunlight, meditation, and outdoor activities that don’t involve a handheld gadget.

Want to brush up your skillset or learn something new like darkroom printing, Portuguese cooking, or building your own AI chatbot? Jupiter’s tour through Gemini is great for short-term learning.

Perhaps the most important reminder of all is this: While Jupiter is in personable, communicative Gemini, there’s no replacing the magic of an IRL conversations.
