Did you know that just because you were born under the sign of Gemini doesn’t necessarily mean you have all the same traits as what you read about? It’s true that all Geminis tend to be adaptable, playful, and really interested in learning new things. But there are actually some small differences between early and late Geminis.
I know, it seems weird that when you were born makes such a big deal, but stick with me, and I’ll explain the differences between May and June Gemini birthdays.
Personality Traits of May Geminis
Being born between May 21st-31st gives you a really unique combination of traits. On one hand, you were born during the spring bloom when everything is colorful and growing. But you also share the month with Taurus season.
That gives you the best of both worlds – you’re super curious and learn new things quickly, just like those flowers soaking up the sunshine. But once you set your mind to something, watch out! You can be really focused and stubborn, just like your bull friends.
Wherever you go, it’s like you bring the sun with you. People always seem happy when you enter a room. There’s just something about your energy that draws others in. You’re like little sunflowers, always turning to face the light.
All Geminis love to chat, but May Geminis have a special knack for jokes, gossip, and lightening the mood. They spread sunshine wherever they go with their humor and conversation skills.
Personality Traits of June Geminis
Being a Gemini born in June, you were born in “your” month. The season actually switches to Cancer on the 21st, but still, those first 21 days of June are all about Gemini energy.
May Geminis are just getting started and growing into themselves. But you, you’re in full bloom! You’re super smart, and your mind never stops. It’s like you can think for three people at once with how much you can process.
While your May counterpart loves gossip and jokes, you tend to be more serious. You can talk about all kinds of deep stuff like aliens, politics, feelings – it seems like you know a little something about everything!
Being that your month overlaps with emotional Cancer, you feel things more deeply than other Geminis. It’s not always easy to share your emotions, but man, do you feel them. Sometimes, it is so much that it can be overwhelming.
And let’s not forget that June kicks off the summer. As the season of travel, it’s no surprise that you love exploring new places and languages. You also find foreign cultures super interesting. Maybe you even work in travel or something that allows you to work remotely.
May vs June Geminis: The Differences
May Geminis are influenced by the mutable energy of spring, making them more flexible and adaptable. They usually go with the flow and are open to trying new things. June Geminis, on the other hand, are influenced by the beginning of summer and the cardinal energy of the solstice. They usually have a more determined and unyielding nature.
Home vs. Travel
There’s a big difference between May Geminis and June Geminis when it comes to traveling. May Geminis tend to prefer shorter trips, staying within their own country or going shorter distances. But June Geminis are all about traveling long distances.
And that’s not the only difference – their risk tolerance is totally different too. June Geminis really seem to be into taking risks when they travel. But May Geminis? They’re more cautious, less interested in adrenaline or danger.
And it makes sense when you think about their personalities. May Geminis are usually more thoughtful, careful types. But June Geminis? They live by the YOLO (you only live once) motto. Their attitude is that life is short, so they want to take risks and have the fullest experiences possible.
Emotions & Feelings
You know how some people say that Geminis lack emotion? Not true at all. But there are some differences between May and June Geminis. May Geminis tend to be a little more reserved with their feelings, while June Geminis can be really emotional and feel deeply.
When it comes to emotions, May and June Twins are like black and white – May Geminis have no problem showing how they feel. But June Geminis, they tend to bottle it up inside. And sometimes, when you do that too much, it can lead to some dark places, such as depression or even self-destructive habits.
Money vs. Experience
Those astrological Gems born in May seem to place a big emphasis on their career and financial success. They come up with all sorts of creative ideas and really go all in to make things happen. When they put the work in, they often get the rewards.
June Geminis has a different take, though. For them, it’s all about new experiences over making money. They truly believe experiences are priceless, even if you do have to pay for things like plane tickets! Rather than just looking at a nice car and saying how nice it looks, a June Gemini wants to actually get behind the wheel and take it for a spin before deciding if it’s for them or not.
May Geminis, however, are more careful about spending, thinking things through first. June Geminis are more impulsive, jumping into things.
