Gemini explores everything pioneered by Aries and cultivated by Taurus. Gemini seeks his/her own territory and establishes trade routes and communication channels with the next door neighbor, the CEO, and the travel agent. Gemini can juggle these people with great savvy. A mutuable intellectual air sign, Gemini shares much with Libra (cardinal air) and with Aquarius (fixed air), in that Gemini can combine Libran fair analyses with the scientific, humanitarian principles of Aquarius. Geminis often have two jobs, two hobbies, two lovers, and at least two PC's -- all going at once! Twins can suffer mental strain from over stimulation, and if this is coupled with smoking, Twins are apt to contract lung disorders.
Gemini is driven to explore the fascinating and innovative then to tell someone. Journalism, research, combined with an adroit use of words make Geminis potential writers and/or spin doctors. It depends on how Gemini wants to use the "truth." Mercury, often the trickster, enjoys pranks at the expense of veracity. A developed Gemini will use his/her words in pursuit of educative excellence. Geminis are university professors as often as are their Sagittarian counterparts. Gifted with the ability to use wit with fact, Gemini's can be spellbinding lecturers.
Restless air has to move, and the downside of this is that Gemini can skim the surface of issues rather than penetrate the depths. Unable to ground him/herself, an out-of-control Gemini can't sit still long enough to examine a person, place or thing to discover its true value. Glib excuses and bon mots are no substitute for the healing needed in relationships. Probing and sensitivity are required. Evolved Geminis have tempered their "puer/puella" tendencies into a genuine elasticity and open-mindedness that compliments their golden years. Young people are attracted to evolved Gemini's because they have the capacity to bridge the "generation gap."
When Gemini balances his/her mutable air with Sagittarius' Jupiterian fire, Gemini becomes not only the scientist and "professional generalist," but also the philosopher. When the twins face their polar opposite, Sagittarius, in the integrating mirror, more compassion and a larger world view develop. Gemini becomes more able to contemplate its values and design a lasting moral and ethical platform on which to stand. Sagittarian benevolence and expansiveness widen Gemini's inner view to accommodate the experience of the infinite during contemplation. Then Gemini's rovings (like Sagittarius') become more oriented toward truth. What is shared then in the Twins' endless network achieves depth and a richness of meaning.
