Born at this point in Gemini season
Born in the late part of Gemini, this person arrives near the edge of the season, when the air is already turning toward Cancer and the summer plans are half made. Their curiosity runs ahead of what they finish, so a fresh idea can take over a week meant for something else. Friends notice the restless talk first, then the steady loyalty underneath it. Changing course comes easily to them, and so does staying put with the people they chose.
