Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

Gemini is the 3rd sign in the Zodiac and is represented by ‘the twins.’ These two accurately depict the duplicity of Gemini’s nature. The Roman numeral for two is also sometimes used to represent the twins. Gemini is a masculine, or positive sign that is considered more aggressive, direct, assertive, and self-assured than feminine/negative signs.


Element: Air

Gemini is one of 3 air signs in the Zodiac, all of whom share similar characteristics. Air signs are typically intellectual, objective, lively, idealistic and articulate. The other air signs in the Zodiac that share these characteristics are Libra and Aquarius.


Planet: Mercury

Mercury represents your capacity to understand the desires of your own will and to translate those desires into action. In other words it is the planet of mind and the power of communication. Through Mercury we develop an ability to think, write, speak and observe- to be aware of world around us. When Mercury goes retrograde (the appearance of traveling backward) our communications will be challenged; this planet implores us to express ourselves clearly.




Personality Trait: "I Think"

The Gemini person is versatile, inquisitive, whimsical, articulate, lively, active, curious, independent, talkative, sociable, mercurial, and feminine. They can also sometimes be restless, scattered, dual or two-faced, inconstant, rash, gullible, gossipy and superficial. Many who are born under this sign are always on the move, ready for knowledge and new experiences. Variety is the spice of life for a Gemini, who loves to know little things about everything, but not too much about one particular thing.


Gemini has gained the reputation of being the talkers of the Zodiac. Those Gemini who don’t have that specific gift are typically talented writers or have a knack for foreign languages. In terms of romantic relationships and love, Gemini searches for a partner who can keep up with them not only physically, but mentally as well.


Oscar Wilde said it best when he said, “ There’s one thing worse than people talking about you, and that’s people not talking about you.” Gemini, along with Scorpio and Virgo, are the most talked about sign, often discussed, dissected, or even put down by other signs in the Zodiac, usually in jealousy due to the unique lives Gemini leads. Most born under this sign are multi-dimensionally talented, and thus evoke more interest then normal. Gemini makes money quickly and easily, and spends it the same way.
