Beware of

Gemini

Gemini is going to be incredibly frustrating for you to deal with right now. On May 17 Mercury enters Gemini making their energy very fast scattered and talkative. You crave depth loyalty and singular focus. Gemini just wants to skim the surface and chat with everyone in the room. You will likely feel that they are two faced or superficial because their opinions change every five minutes. They will feel suffocated by your intensity and your need to control the situation. Gemini needs space to breathe and explore while you want to merge souls and know their deepest secrets. This is a classic clash between light air and dark water. You will never feel entirely secure with them and they will constantly try to escape your heavy emotional demands. Do yourself a massive favor and avoid relying on them for emotional support because they simply cannot provide it.
