Mercury in Gemini, 2028
Mercury enters Gemini on Monday 1 May 2028, 01:42 UTC, which is in your time zone. It leaves for Cancer on Sunday 9 July 2028, 01:38 UTC, after 69 days. During this stay Mercury turns retrograde from 21 May 2028 to 14 June 2028.
Mercury enters Gemini, one of the two signs it rules, on 1 May 2028 at 01:42 UTC. Its stay is long, 69 days, because it turns retrograde on 21 May and resumes direct motion on 14 June 2028 without leaving the sign. It finally moves into Cancer on 9 July 2028 at 01:38 UTC. Gemini is a mutable air sign.
Astrologers consider Mercury at home in Gemini, where its traditional themes of talk, curiosity, learning, short trips and the exchange of information are at their most active. The retrograde weeks in the middle of the stay are commonly read as a time for rechecking messages, schedules and agreements, and for returning to unfinished reading or conversations. A modest suggestion is to confirm travel and appointment details twice during that stretch, and to save new commitments for after mid-June where possible.
