Air Signs explains Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius as the air triplicity. Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius contribute three air placements under the published count.
Overview
The air triplicity groups Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius around exchange, proportion, abstraction, and social circulation. The page separates calculation from interpretation and keeps this worked result conditional: Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius contribute three air placements under the published count. Verification follows this declared method: Inventory planets in the three air signs, note whether Mercury or the angles reinforce them, and distinguish communication style from intelligence.

Definition and exact scope
the air triplicity groups Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius around exchange, proportion, abstraction, and social circulation
Calculation or decision rule
inventory planets in the three air signs, note whether Mercury or the angles reinforce them, and distinguish communication style from intelligence
Worked case and illustrative near miss
☿ 15°♊, ♀ 3°♎, ♄ 27°♒; the same body list used for every element. Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius contribute three air placements under the published count.
Illustrative near miss: Treating an eloquent Mercury in Scorpio as an air placement; communication style is not a triplicity lookup.
School and variant boundary
Membership is stable inside the declared tropical-sign framework, while weighting and meaning vary by school.
Product, safety, and verification boundary
OpenFate can connect Air Signs to the natal chart and reading flow where supported; the connection supplies evidence, not a guaranteed life result. Verification retains failed measurements and uncertainty, then revises interpretation rather than the receipt. Air Signs cannot diagnose a person, remove consent, or guarantee an event.
