Gemini ! About Your
Self... |
Gemini, the
sign of the Twins, is dual-natured, elusive, complex and
contradictory. On the one hand it produces the virtue of
versatility, and on the other the vices of two-facedness and
flightiness. The sign is linked with Mercury, the planet of
childhood and youth, and its subjects tend to have the graces
and faults of the young. When they are good, they are very
attractive; when they are bad they are more the worse for
being the charmers they are. Like children they are lively,
and happy, if circumstances are right for them, or egocentric,
imaginative and restless. They take up new activities
enthusiastically but lack application, constantly needing new
interests, flitting from project to project as apparently
purposelessly as a butterfly dancing from flower to flower. To
them life is a game which must always be full of fresh moves
and continuous entertainment, free of labor and routine.
Changing horses in the middle of the stream is another small
quirk in the Gemini personality which makes decision making,
and sticking to a decision, particularly hard for
them.
Since they lack the quality of conscientiousness,
they are apt to fight a losing battle in any attempts they
make to be moral (in the widest sense of the word). Their good
qualities are attractive and come easily to them. They are
affectionate, courteous, kind, generous, and thoughtful
towards the poor and suffering - provided none of the
activities resulting from expressing these traits interferes
too greatly with their own lives and comforts. They quickly
learn to use their outward attractiveness to gain their own
ends, and when striving for these they will use any weapon in
their armory - unscrupulous lying, and cunning evasiveness;
escaping blame by contriving to put it on other people,
wrapped up in all the charm they can turn on. In their better
moments they may strive to be honest and straightforward, but
self-interest is almost always the victor. If things go
against them, they sulk like children. Also like children,
they demand attention, admiration, and the spending on them of
time, energy and money, throwing tantrums if they don't get
what they want. They reflect every change in their
surroundings, like chameleons, and can become pessimistic,
sullen, peevish and materialistically self-centered if
circumstances force them to struggle in any way. If the
conditions of life become really adverse, their strength of
will may desert them entirely. They can become uncertain of
themselves, either withdrawn, or nervously excitable worriers,
sullenly discontented, hard and irritable, with "Self" looming
ever larger in their struggles. On the other hand their
versatility can make them very adaptable, adjusting themselves
to control the world around them by means of their inherent
ingenuity and cleverness.
Most Gemini have a keen,
intuitive, sometimes brilliant intelligence and they love
cerebral challenges. But their concentration, though intense
for a while, does not last. Their mental agility and energy
give them a voracious appetite for knowledge from youth
onward, though they dislike the labor of learning. They easily
grasp almost everything requiring intelligence and mental
dexterity, and are often able to marry manual skills to their
qualities of mind. Their intellect is strongly analytical and
sometimes gives them so great an ability to see both sides of
a question that they vacillate and find it hard to make
decisions. But their intelligence may very well be used to
control and unify the duality of their natures into a most
efficient unit. If faced with difficulties, they have little
determination to worry at a problem until they find a solution
- they will pick the brains of others. In their intellectual
pursuits, as in other departments of their lives, they risk
becoming dilettantes, losing themselves in too many projects
which they follow until they become difficult.
In love
they are fickle, not intentionally so but because of the basic
inconsistency of their emotional nature, which has an amoral
aspect to it. Their is a side to Geminians which can become
deeply involved emotionally, and another, hostile to
sentimentality, which stands back from a romantic situation,
laughing at it and the protagonists in it, including
themselves while analyzing it intellectually. Gemini subjects
take nothing seriously. So, in love, in spite of their
temporary depth of feeling, for the intensity of involvement
lasts only while it is new, they are superficial,
light-hearted, cool, flirtatious and unimaginative in the
understanding of the pain they may give others. They like
intrigue, the excitement of the chase, but once they have
caught the prey, they lose interest and look around for the
next creature to pursue. In less serious situations they make
witty, entertaining companions, good acquaintances rather than
friends. Even at their worst they are never dull - there is
usually playfulness below the surface, and they can be
brilliant conversationalists - but they can also be
quarrelsome, prattlers, boasters, liars and cheats.
Geminians can be successful in many walks of life
though their general characteristics tend to make them
unreliable. They are often skilled manipulators of language,
in speech and writing, and may be: debaters, diplomats (though
in politics they are more interested in theory than practice),
orators, preachers (brilliant rather than profound), teachers,
authors, poets, journalists, or lawyers. In business any work
which combines quick-wittedness with a change of surroundings
suits them; working as a traveling salesperson, brokerage
work, or dealing with the public in any capacity is right up
their alley. Because they are dispassionate, logical, rational
and analytical they make good scientists, especially in the
fields of medicine and astronomy. They can also make excellent
members of the Armed Forces, for they take danger no more
seriously than anything else and can earn themselves a
reputation for devotion to duty and heroic acts. In the arts
they may excel in music, painting and sculpture. They make
good psychic researchers of a sceptical kind. Negatively they
can degenerate into confidence tricksters, thieves and even
adepts in the black arts. |
Possible Health
Concerns... |
Gemini rules
the arms, shoulders, hands, lungs and nervous system and its
subjects need to beware of diseases and accidents associated
with the upper part of the body, as well as nervous and
pulmonary disorders such as catarrh and bronchitis. Their
mercurial nature may also affect a constitution which is not
strong if it is put under strain.
You are prone to taking
unnecessary risks and wind up harming yourself or others in
the process. Sometimes pursuing pleasure too vigorously could
also qualify as risk taking.

PROBLEMS THAT
MAY ARISE FOR YOU, AND THEIR SOLUTIONS |
As with all sun
signs, we all have unique traits to our personalities. When
these traits are suppressed, or unrealized, problems will
arise. However, with astrology we can examine the problem and
assess the proper solution based on the sun sign
characteristics. As a Gemini you may see things below that
really strike home. Try the solution, you most likely will be
amazed at the results. If you find yourself on the receiving
end of the negatives below, it is because you are failing to
express the positive.
Problem : Being
superficial could be a big problem for you in your overall
relationships with others and also in getting ahead on many
jobs where you must endeavor to dig deep and learn something
thoroughly. This is the worst Gemini trait of
all.
Solution : To make a conscious effort to
control this trait is the best approach to take to this
problem. If you make a commitment to something or someone you
should mentally force yourself to keep that commitment where
possible. This will be hard but it can, and has been,
accomplished by many under this sign.
Problem :
Not one who cares for peace and quiet, you create your own
problems with loved ones by picking arguments or tale carrying
from one to the other then stand back and enjoy the
show.
Solution : While this may relieve your
boredom, it is something that you should not let happen as it
could easily go out of control and cost you the love and
companionship that you desire. When you feel like doing this
it would be better to take a long walk and let the feelings
pass.
Problem : Boredom is one of your biggest
problems and you could easily fall into mischief if you do not
find ways to alleviate it.
Solution : You have a
great many creative talents and if you put these to work for
you in some sort of hobby or project you will find you do not
have time to be bored, also, other physical activities should
be considered: workouts at the gym, racket ball, hiking,
etc..
Problem : You could have health problems
brought on by overindulgence of food, drink, or the night life
which only gets worse as you age.
Solution : Tame
your urges and save the party times for weekends only and then
try not to overdo it. By keeping everything down to a mild
roar you may not have to fight off diseases such as obesity or
cirrhosis of the liver.
Problem : You may have
the problem of not being able to keep a spouse or a lover due
to your pursuit of the opposite sex.
Solution :
Cultivate the habit of not flirting with every attractive
person you see and make up your mind to be a true and loving
spouse, or don't commit until you are really ready to do
this.
