Your Gemini Sun is
associated with the mind and ideas: communication, writing, and speaking.
Coupled with quickness and curiosity you can move from one idea or project
to another with lightning speed. There is no guarantee that your ideas
are fully developed, in fact, you may assume that someone else with more
patience will follow through. Moving from place to place and traveling
to a new scene satisfies your need for excitement. To say you bore quickly
is an understatement. Your playful, childlike nature has a love for games,
especially games with a mental challenge or in which you can match wits
and win.
Friends who are intelligent
and can teach something new are valued. Another quality of your Gemini
Sun sign was apparent from the moment you learned to crawl. You can be
two places at once or so it seems. Parents try play yards, and other restrictive
devices just to keep track of your whereabouts. You could be very vocal
about your displeasure at being restricted. You have a need to explore,
to move, to meet new pets or people. After you could walk and talk your
parents learned to be prepared to see you come home with a new friend
or new pet. Gemini children invented the cliché, “But I will teach
him not to bark.” Who can be angry in the face of such innocence
and charm?
You can talk yourself
into and out of almost any situation. You can charm and fast-talk your
friends into whatever is on your agenda at the moment. You want to go
into the bookstore. They want to sit down and enjoy a Cappuccino. An hour
later, as you leave the bookstore, they find that you have convinced them
to buy this must read on a subject that is not even mildly on their
list of interests. Sales, promotions, marketing, are as natural to your
Gemini nature as breathing in and breathing out.
Writing is another
matter. You may be reluctant to put your thoughts on paper. You might
change your mind and anyway, that is too much like a commitment. Which
brings us to another quality that others find troubling. Some of your
friends expect you to be the same tomorrow as you were today. They are
taking a risk if they expect their Gemini friend or lover to be true blue.
While young, you are so busy exploring the variety of life that you may
forget those words of undying devotion. People who know you well look
for you when they see you coming up the street. That may seem like an
exaggeration, however, you have been known to forget an appointment or
have been a bit casual about the exact time you were to arrive. In your
defense, the phone rang, a package was delivered, you forgot to buy gas
or an old friend dropped by and you just had to say a few words to them.
As you age, and find the perfect partner that truly understands you, you
can be as loyal as your dog, Rover. Until then let others be warned. They
had better keep up on the news, politics, travel and whatever else is
your current interest if they expect to be a part of your life. Anyone
who joins their fate with you is buying a package deal: a dozen for the
price of one. It is essential for friends to realize that the Gemini they
knew yesterday is not the same one they are talking to today. You can
promise one thing, they will never be bored and they will most likely
feel that running to keep up with you is their favorite activity.
Remember that this
is based upon the Gemini principle. It will be modified by connecting
Mercury, your sign “ruler”, with Earthy Taurus or Emotional
Cancer. Mercury is the planet that is associated with the sign Gemini.
Astrologers say it “rules” the sign. Mercury is never far from
the Sun so it is usually in the sign before, (Taurus) the same sign (Gemini)
or the one following. (Cancer) Even so, underneath the modifiers beats
the heart of your Gemini soul. The day and year of your birth will reveal
where Mercury was by sign on your birthday. If you want a more detailed
and complete description of your birth chart, you will need to know your
date, exact time, and place of your birth.
