Hello Stargazers, and welcome to The Season of The Twins! Strains for Gemini season is part of our new monthly column where you can find the perfect strains to match your elemental sign and a strain that pairs perfectly with the current zodiac season.

The Gemini season strain you shouldn’t go without

If you’ve ever watched a stranger command a room at a party — telling a wild tale about some previous escapade, chances are that person is a Gemini. 

Geminis are the third sign in the zodiac calendar and the party animals of the zodiac kingdom.

Extroverted, incredibly gregarious, and strong-willed, Twins are also known to be wishy-washy. Geminis struggle with big life decisions and their indecisiveness can present challenges in their relationships and careers. 

But, at their center, Geminis are sweet, considerate, and perhaps some of the most creative individuals on the planet. Because of this, you can expect Gemini season to bring a myriad of new experiences. Some will stretch you, some will test you, and some will truly spark joy. 

So, to honor the spirit of the zodiac Twins and the dualities they possess, this season’s strain is Serious Happiness. This indica-dominant hybrid is known for its fruity aroma and its happy, buzzy, stress-melting effects. Users report it hits heavy and fast between the eyes, so new users beware!

Sweet, sensitive, go-with-the-flow Air signs, you will do well during Gemini Season. Not only will the Twin energy be a welcome comfort, but you will also experience a lot of positive attention under this sign. 

Look for opportunities to spread around any good fortune that comes your way. Don’t worry about trying to please the whole crowd, either. Focus on authenticity and deep relationships, and the facade will fall away. Your priorities will become clear the more you commit to being your full self. 

If you’re looking to mellow out this Gemini season:

Purple Punch is an indica strain with 18% THC. Users describe this bud as fruity and sedating. This one has some serious potency so only indulge in a bowl of this if your dance card is clear and you have an entire season of a show queued up on Netflix.

If you are willing to let someone else take the lead (and even make their own mistakes) you will experience a month full of deeper connections, better communication, and a more relaxed version of yourself. Take this chance to live and let live.
