Gemini is a Mutable Air sign, ruled by Mercury. As the
third sign in the zodiac, Gemini is an energetic, charismatic,
communicative, witty individual with a child-like fascination
with the world and with new experiences. Famous and
historical characters sharing this sign include John F. Kennedy,
(May 29), Marilyn Monroe (June 1), and Judy Garland (June
10).
The Gemini personality stands out as the zodiac
sign that knows something about just about everything, making
them good conversationalists and interesting acquaintances.
They are inquisitive and quick to digest new information and
ideas. Intelligent and logical, but with a lot of nervous
energy, Gemini likes to keep busy and expand their horizons
whenever opportunities arise, often multitasking between several
interests. However, as the sign of the Twins, there is a dual
aspect to the Gemini personality, making it difficult for
these individuals to stick with any one thing in order to master
it, and often making it difficult for bystanders to figure out
which side their Gemini friend is really on. Gemini has
more than one personality, which can change in a flash, and those
near to them would do well to learn them both. On and
off, up and down, back and forth, black and white, day and night,
ying and yang - this is the essence of the Gemini
personality.
For those with a Gemini child, get ready
for a ride! These kids can be sweet, cooperative little
angles one moment and infuriating monsters the next. Gemini
children are very verbal and soak information in like
sponges. They therefore tend to master the art of
communication quite early, often displaying knowledge beyond their
years. This is a high-strung child with a lot of pent-up
energy, so don't be surprised if your 6 year old Gemini claims to
have "tension headaches" or other physical complaints beyond his
years. The Gemini child will not particularly like the rigors
of school, but it is likely that he will know to turn on the charm
to bluff his way through parts of it. Though he has the
intellect to excel in school, it's just not in little Gemini to
follow things through to completion, so he will rarely be at the
top of his class. Giving him a rich environment at home
will help offset this, so be sure to introduce him to nature,
sports, music, and reading early on, and also provide stimulation
via computers and video games to help broaden his exploratory
nature and hold his interest. Gemini kids seem to have
a conflict between emotions and intellect, and this can manifest in
a variety of ways, often in strange eating habits. Your
Gemini might love only red jelly beans or want peanut butter on
bread with no jelly and nothing to drink. If you ask about
this type of thing, he will blithely tell you that the red ones
give him strength or that he has exceptional salivary glands - in
his own mind, he is perfectly justified in his choices regardless
of how absurd they seem to everyone else. Your best bet is to
keep the multi-vitamins handy for these little ones! With
regard to other family members, Gemini will entertain and delight
and generally get along fine with everyone, unless someone comes
along that takes away his limelight, such as a younger
sibling. In this case, your little Gemini may turn into a
tormenter of this sibling for years to come, and this can be
very difficult to control.
Because of his superior communication skills and
innate charm, Gemini usually does well at work, with others often
seeking them out for advice and new ideas. Conversely, the
Gemini worker will not hesitate to seek others out for advice and
ideas, always striving to stay on top of the information
chain. When interested, Gemini can accomplish more in a day
than other signs can accomplish in a week. When
disinterested, however, the Gemini worker will procrastinate and
eventually move on to more interesting pursuits. No surprise
then, that Gemini tends to change jobs and even careers several
times during his lifetime. The Gemini's office will have lots
of communication devices including computer, phone, Blackberry,
cell, and a rolodex full of names, and he will constantly be
networking and seeking out new connections. These same traits
will also cause the Gemini to tend toward gossip, so if you want to
hear the dirt on others, seek out your Gemini co-worker.
Gemini can function well in almost any job capacity that he finds
interesting, especially those that require lots of communication
and interaction with others. With Gemini in a boss or
leadership position, however, watch for a strong secretary or
assistant that follows behind picking up pieces and finishing
undone projects.
If you have found a romantic partner in a
Gemini, you have a young at heart lover who wants to try new things
and is always looking for a new adventure. The Gemini partner
will need a quick wit, and the capacity to change directions on a
moment's notice. Gemini will frequently test their partners
for loyalty and commitment, so try to keep jealousy and anger at
bay, because although the challenge at hand may look like it is
external, it is often a situation generated by Gemini himself as a
test of your commitment. Additionally, while Gemini is often
animated and fun, within a short time this can change to
brooding and isolative, so learning when to back off completely is
important in this relationship. If Gemini becomes bored
within the relationship, he will almost certainly move on, often
with no concept of the devastation he is causing, so keeping it
fresh and alive over the long term is crucial to holding on
to a romantic relationship with a Gemini.
The best matches for Gemini for sure are Gemini,
Libra, and Aquarius, but Aries, Cancer, Taurus, and Leo might also
work for some individuals. It will likely be
tough going for Virgo and Pisces, which are the least compatible
with Gemini.
Gemini in any relationship is smart, witty,
fast, and fun. They are the life of the party and have a lot
of acquaintances. They seek out others who are smart and
adventuresome, and will become quickly bored with those who are
homebodies or content with the status quo. Gemini wants
to see the world, experience everything, and literally "learn
something new every day." He will be a fun and fascinating
companion, but some may see him as superficial and "two faced"
because his goal is to charm everyone all of the time. On
good days, he will be charming and gracious, but on bad days he can
be moody and even cruel. Remember, with Gemini, the by-word
is "changeable," so learn to expect anything
