Gemini (twins-may 21- june 20)
Being an airy sign, persons born in this sign live mostly in
the mind. They will be carefree and joyous and somewhat reluctant. Their mind
will be positive and strong. They are versatile, restless and inclined to seek
changes and make improvement.
As mercury is the lord of this sign, communication, reading
, writing would dominate their lives. There mercurians display their intellectual
talent and show all the signs of mental dexterity and supreme intelligence.
They understand, analyse, have a quick grasp with much retentive power and
ability to reproduce.
They can comprehend people and adapt themselves readily to
circumstances. They can offer advice, persuade and argue with others. They can
critically analyse the merits of a case. They are always active with a flexible
mind, which enables them to take a dispassionate
view of the advantages and disadvantages of each and hence take a pragmatic,
even if somewhat delayed decision. Gemein is termed as twins. Mercury, the lord
of the sign, is depicted as a boy, among all gods, not fully grown. Mercury is
also said to be – the winged messenger of god. Mercury has wings both on its
helmet and sandals. That is why, geminians are known to be very quick on the
uptake. It is said that people with some big , important ideas to express and
businessmen generally elect the time of Gemini, with a belief that this will
bless sharp intelligence, adaptability and ultimately ensure success.
Being a dual sign, it gives the native ability to pursue
more than one occupation at a time and also to adept oneself to new
surroundings. They will gather courage, present a courageous front and
assertive attitude, even though they are highly timid and nervous. It is very
difficult for others to understand them and their peculiarities. They are
rather impulsive. It is the impulse that will decide which line of action one
will take.
But they should avoid going to extremes. Geminians may be lmpulsively as generous as parsimonious at times. They have to avoid superficiality in order to gain clarity and insight and accomplish a task intelligently.
These people can be relied upon in any emergency, as they can respond to the necessities and requirements of the moment. But they also have a few faults like waywardness, fickleness and leaving the task unfinished. Therefore, they are more likely to be at their best in cooperation with others while undertaking any job. They love diversity, like the air to which they belong. They have to be moving from place or from one thought to the other. They refuse to be bound by rules. They are really pleased only when they act unexpectedly, rather than in accordance with convention.
The house of gemini is called the house of oscillation and vacillation. So these persons are changeable. They are apt to diffuse their energies and utilise them on divers interests. The influence of mercury will make them delve deep into all matters, as though they are research-oriented. They will prove to be good detectives, make brilliant journalist and excellent schemers. Being an intellectual sign, they also have a knack for languages and retaining data.
It is said that the geminians have too many irons in the fire.
Their minds are fertile and their range of thought is very wide. If
retrograde mercury were also to rise at the time of birth, the native
will prefer to sidestep the truth and enjoy a good joke. They cannot
believe what they have not seen or experienced. Their viewpoint will
always be responsible. They can understand other's outlook and adapt
themselves to it. In other words, they have an academic nature with a
democratic attitude. Being a common sign and the third sign of the
zodiac, these natives would love to travel frequently. These may mainly
be short journeys by land.
