Sun in Gemini
Geminians are friendly, clever, talkative, versatile, curious,
perceptive, intuitive, and logical. At times they can also be quite
contradictory, restless, two-faced, critical, and impatient. Gemini
people enjoy and need work that includes a great deal of variety.
They love to do several things all at the same time, sometimes making
them late for appointments. They abhor boredom.
Geminians tend to flit from one experience to another, gathering in
all types of information along the way, but seldom getting to the
depth of any subject. They go broad and not deep. Persistence is not
their strong suit. Gaining knowledge and disseminating it is their
real talent. Hence, they make wonderful salespeople or teachers if
they stick around long enough to get all the facts instead of only
half the story. Even if they do not possess all the facts, since they
are never at a loss for words, they will continue with their story as
if they did have all the facts.
It is important for a Geminian to seek intellectual satisfaction.
Mental stagnation turns them off, so they read extensively and
communicate widely in order to satisfy this longing for mental
stimulation. This discontent can make them either very ambitious, or
it can incline them to jump from one thing to another, searching for
the greener grass which never appears.
Geminians usually think quickly on their feet and have the ability to
use the right words in any situation. They possess tremendous wit and
a good sense of humor. Other people may have difficulty in keeping up
with their rapid change of subjects.
Because Geminians think so quickly, they often finish other people's
sentences for them. This can be most frustrating for the person trying
to express their own thoughts. There is a need to learn how to
control the tongue and allow slower people to express their own
opinions and ideas.
Since Geminians have the capacity to see both sides of any issue, they
may fluctuate back and forth between opposing viewpoints. They will
usually tend to side with the opinion of whomever they happen to be
with at the moment. Then they change as the circumstances change.
Indecisiveness is a problem for Geminians.
Geminians are usually emotionally detached. They use their minds
rather than their hearts to find their way through things. Logic and
reason are their guidelines. They are able to understand what makes
other people behave as they do, but they have difficulty in projecting
themselves into the emotional reactions of the person involved.
Some of the negative traits that Geminians possess are lack of
concentration and focus, undependability, fickleness, indecisiveness,
superficiality, wishful thinking, and dreaminess. They can also be
pretty good at nagging.
Geminians need to work on getting their mind under control. Their
nervous system is highly strung. If they don't learn to control their
nerves, they are apt to become ill. The way out of this difficulty is
to take the emphasis off themselves and lose it through service to
others. Above all, the Geminian needs to learn to channel (control)
his energy and his mind.
