7 Planets in Gemini

[Jim Eshelman]

Over the last two thousand years, there was one time all 7 classical planets were in Gemini: May 31, 531 AD through June 2.

Exact dates for events during the 6th century aren't readily available. I find only one near-hit: The day before on May 30, Liang Dynasty prince Xiao Tong died at about age 30. In trying to assess hat repercussions this had, I find at least one Gemini theme but without obvious immediate repercussions: Xiao Tong was responsible for an important aggregation of ancient poetry and oher writings, the Wen Xuan or Selections of Refined Literature.
