It’s Gemini season! In the Hebrew zodiac, the sign corresponding to Gemini is Teomim, meaning “the twins.” Teomim represents curiosity, communication, and adaptability, reflecting an energy that thrives on connection, learning, and versatility.
Teomim is linked to the Hebrew month of Sivan (May to June), a time associated with revelation and understanding. Sivan includes the holiday of Shavuot, which celebrates the giving of the Torah and the sharing of wisdom. This connection emphasizes the value of insight and exchanging ideas. Those born under this sign typically embody a lively mind and an inquisitive spirit.
We spoke with Mikhl Yashinsky () about the histories of the zodiac while standing on our spectacular mosaic floor by the late, acclaimed artist Mark Podwal z”l ().
The twins of Teomim symbolize duality and balance, reminding us of the importance of perspective and flexibility. They encourage harmonizing thought with action and exploring both sides of every situation. In Podwal’s mosaic design, Gemini imagery captures this dynamic energy of learning, communication, and curiosity.
