Summary:-
Gemini is a double sign and a certain duality is apparent in
the pure Geminean. There is an ambivalence, a shifting outlook,
which makes Gemineans delightful in their unexpectedness, but irritating
in their inconsistency. Gemineans are often exasperating - but they
can be relied upon not to be boring. A pure Geminean is a person
with whom it is almost impossible to argue for any length of time.
His/her mind is so subtle, moving ahead like quicksilver, that one
can never be quite sure what one is arguing about. Gemineans have
golden tongues as well as quicksilver minds; like the monkeys of
Chinese Astrology, they ca charm the birds off the trees, induce
others to follow courses of action which they don't really think
advisable, and fascinate almost anyone they wish. At its worst,
this makes the strongly Geminean person capable of being the archetypal
confidence-trickster; at its best, it makes him or her a communicator
of genius - an individual capable of conveying complex ideas in
a simple way and of inspiring others.
But
even the most idealistic Geminean is not all together trustworthy
or completely reliable. This is not because of any deliberate disloyalty,
dishonesty or deceit - it is because he or she is extremely apt
to change his/her mind and, being intellectual as well as versatile,
can put forward excellent arguments for the newly adopted point
of view. Well-know Gemineans have included Judy Garland, Marilyn
Monroe, Errol Flynn Gemineans have included Judy Garland , Marilyn
Monroe , Errol Flynn and Ian Fleming.
Sexuality and the Emotions:-
The Geminean man or woman is always very liable to fall suddenly
in (or out) of love. This characteristic persists through out life
(although it is particularly noticeable in young adulthood) and
it applies to emotions of friendship as well as to those of a more
romantic nature. Even an elderly Geminean is quite likely to introduce
you to 'a very close friend' with whom, in fact, he or she has only
recently become acquainted. This can make life rather confusing
for others, particularly if they take Geminean lovers or friends
seriously. A Geminean love-making and expressions of affection are
sometimes more ardent than his/her true feelings. As partners, though,
pure Gemineans are reasonably reliable - if their affections stray,
it is not for long.
General Character
'Airy is rather an old-fashioned word but it admirably describes
the character of the pure Geminean. He or she has all the unpredictability
of a feather or a soap bubble bobbing about in ever-changing air
currents. With this unpredictability goes an astonishing buoyancy
and resilience. A Geminean may seem, metaphorically speaking, to
be about to fall to earth, but almost always an unexpected breath
of wind comes along and he or she is shooting up again.
Gemineans are often noted for their intellectual qualities they
quickly grasp the essence of a situation, a process or an argument.
Usually, however, they fail to understand things in depth; they
tend to have a some what superficial approach. This is not because
they are inherently incapable of deep thinking. It is because their
interests are very wide indeed and they are interested in things
in general rather than one thing one thing in particular.
Life-Style:-
The Geminean will never be happy unless there is some change or
variation in his/her life. No Geminean can satisfactorily do a job
which varies little from day to day, nor one in which he or she
is not expected to take an interest in the activities of others,
nor one in which a certain amount of amiable sociability is not
involved. In other words, the Geminean temperament, mercurial in
every sense of the word, must be fully allowed for. Any job in which
the Geminean can talk or communicate with others is ideal: Gemineans
make superbly gossipy taxi drivers, wonderful journalists, magnificent
sales representatives, and so on. In short, the pure Geminean has
all the qualities of the successful politician (although rarely
those of a statesman) and must ensure that his/her life-style is
appropriate to those qualities.
