For May 23, what astrologers read

You were born in the 1st decan of Gemini, which Mercury rules, so gathering facts and explaining them for others comes easily to you. Astrologers link the number 5, which your day number 23 reduces to, to Mercury as well, reinforcing how much you love travel, variety and lively debate. Tradition reads your temperament much like late spring, a season full of motion and changing winds. You learn best when you throw yourself into an experience right away.

You do well in a career in journalism, transport, marketing or emergency response, since no 2 days look alike there. Desk jobs with a routine bore you quickly. Astrologers say you're charming and spontaneous in love. You need a partner who likes road trips, quick conversations and keeping personal freedom.
