The next zodiac in the cycle is Gemini!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One thing I wanted to do with my interpretation of the zodiac signs is to deviate away from stereotypical depictions or traits of the signs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve found that Gemini is one of those signs that gets a bad rap\u2014they\u2019re always seen as conniving or two-faced. But digging a little bit deeper, Gemini is a sign of curiosity, wit, and duality (which isn\u2019t necessarily a bad thing!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditionally, Gemini is depicted as two people who mirror each other. It\u2019s the first time in the zodiac that a human being appears (if you\u2019re not assuming that a person is holding the Jug of Aquarius), but it\u2019s also special that Gemini is never depicted alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because this is a series inspired by North American wildlife, I chose to create a mythological version of an animal\u2014a two headed fox\u2014for the sign of Gemini.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And for the limited colour variant, I chose a custom lilac to reflect the element of Air.<\/p>\n\n\n
