Mercury is a common ruling planet as it is the planet closest to the sun. It is the planet of communication that Geminis use as a channel to connect with people and experiences. Geminis are constantly seeking answers both outwardly and inwardly.

The moon rules emotions, which is what gives Cancers its empathetic nature. Introspective Cancers are natural caregivers who love to connect, however, much like the moon, their moods come and go in stages.

This planet helps Virgos see intricate details and helps them realise their overall vision and understanding of logic.

Just as Venus looks over Taurus, she is also responsible for the harmonious peace that Libras constantly seek to share with the world. Venus controls Libras' sociability and their impeccable sense of style.
