How Do You Know It’s Real with a Gemini?

This is the clue that your relationship is the real deal…
Go on, admit it. You’re a flirt! Your dual nature means that you enjoy the cuddling, but you also like stimulation and the offbeat. How can you know if you’re ready to commit? If the other person is able to keep up with you tit for tat, then you may have a true meeting of the minds.

If you’re dating a Gemini, how can you tell if the feelings are real? That’s no easy task. There won’t be any soul-baring revelations, but if the talk turns from casual to personal, it could be more than a fling.

Gemini Hot Spots

This area of your Gemini body needs special care…

Your hands, ruled by Gemini, are two of your hardest-working body parts. Whether typing at a keyboard all day, carrying heavy loads, playing instruments or sports, or exploring (ahem) other things, they’re busy all day, year after year. Try this to show your hands some love, soothe sore muscles, and increase circulation.

  1. Stand over a table and place your hands flat on it. Spread your fingers.
  2. Press against the table for 15 seconds.
  3. Turn palms so fingers are facing your legs and press again.
  4. Hold your right hand in front of you, palm down. Spread your fingers.
  5. Use your left thumb to firmly press the webs between the fingers, one by one, toward the wrist.
  6. Repeat with opposite hand.

Are You Too In-Demand, Gemini?

Learn to relax as you enjoy your active Gemini life…

Gemini is the physical embodiment of mental energy. Your innate, insatiable curiosity spurs you to learn more and more (and more). You’re like a supercomputer processing excess data as you read, talk, play, work, and zip through life. It should come as no surprise that Jeopardy! champion Ken Jennings is a Gemini. But all that inquisitiveness comes at a price. You can quickly grow bored with a person, hobby, or job and move on to the next, leaving a trail of broken hearts, projects, or careers in your wake. Slow down and savor the moment!

Do and See It All, Gemini!

Call on your inner thespian to reach dream fulfillment…

You’re interested in everything, which can be both a blessing and a curse. Perhaps you’ve tried hobbies, but at some point, they end up unfinished in the garage or a spare room. Why not try one that draws on all your talents—agility, communication, expressiveness, memory, wit, humor, brains (one could go on and on) and try local theater? You’ll meet people, entertain crowds, feed your need for variety, bask in appreciation, and challenge your mind as you memorize new lines and improvise onstage business for each new play. Prepare for a standing ovation!

Gemini Rising

Ruled by the planet Mercury, Gemini rising people’s minds are restless and always seeking information. That one friend that keeps winning at trivia every single time? Gemini rising. This rising sign is like a mini thesaurus, Wikipedia, and Almanac all wrapped into one. Curiosity can almost be a fault here, as they’re more interested in finding out an answer than wondering if anyone might take offense to their initial question. But being charming as ever, as quick as Gemini rising might offend, they’ve already lured you into another topic.

This is an incredibly social placement, and as such, describes a person who needs variety in their life. Having multiple friend groups to bounce between in a necessity for Gemini rising people.

They have multiple sides to them. Thus, it’s easy for them to understand the duality in an issue. There’s a reason that their zodiac sign symbol is the Twins. This isn’t to say they lack loyalty, but rather, they prefer to have the flexibility to change their mind as they see fit.

Gemini Moon

With a mind that doesn’t stop moving, it’s easy to spot a Gemini moon placement. This lunar placement craves mental stimulation; they’re the friend you ask to join your weekly trivia night. Consuming information is their thing and Wikipedia is most certainly their most visited website. Reading and staying informed on what’s going on in the world is a priority. Gemini moon placements possess an endless curiosity, which can lead them to ask questions nonstop.

Gemini moon placements are chatty, witty, and charming. Their way with words can win over even the more serious of zodiac signs. This is generally a more outgoing placement for the moon, and someone who actually finds family through their friendships.

A Gemini moon can indicate that the native’s relationship with their mother was more intellectual than emotional growing up. Because of that, there can be an emotional distance when the moon appears in this air sign. They seek connection through conversation, and that’s how they truly achieve their deepest bonds in life.

Gemini Planet

Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication. Mythologically, Mercury was the messenger of the gods, spreading information across the world. Thus, the planet Mercury governs all the ways through which we communicate, from conversations to the written word to signs or directions. In the modern world, this also extends to technology, so if you miss an email or get a garbled text message, blame Mercury!

Because it rules information, it also rules analysis and how we process that information (it’s no wonder that the two signs it rules, Gemini and Virgo, are two of the most analytical signs in the zodiac). Mercury is a deeply logical planet and is very influential when it comes to conversations that make us feel satisfied, confused, or anxious.

But the biggest reason you might be familiar with Mercury is thanks to when this planet infamously goes retrograde! Being ruled by Mercury, Geminis are especially susceptible to this cosmic stress. During Mercury retrograde periods, they may find themselves tongue-tied, off balance, or unable to express themselves.

Gemini Career Strengths

Communication: Whether it’s giving a presentation or writing a memo, Gemini rules at all things in the realm of communication. As a manager or boss, you’ll never be stuck in the dark on what your Gemini employee is working on. As a coworker or subordinate, a Gemini is fantastic at keeping the lines of communication open.

Team Player: There are several reasons you want a Gemini on your team. For starters, they love bringing people together and forming relationships. In fact, most Geminis hate working alone, so they’re great at identifying potential work partners and creating tight knit teams.

Versatile: Agile Geminis can switch topics or tasks at any moment! They are great pitch hitters who can jump onto another assignment at a moment’s notice.

Analytical: Geminis have some of the sharpest minds in the zodiac, able to switch from conversation mode to critical mode instantly.

Cutting Edge: Geminis love staying up to date on the latest trends and best practices.

Gemini Worst Careers

Some jobs where a Gemini is unlikely to find satisfaction include:

Healthcare: Geminis should avoid a career in the healthcare field, where taking your eyes off the ball can have disastrous results. This sign is great at communicating and connecting, but that skill can prove to be a distraction once they need to focus on diagnostics.

Accounting: Geminis prefer to deal with words over numbers, and they need outlets in which to display their verbal prowess. Focusing on numbers and balancing books would be draining and frustrating for this chatty and dynamic air sign, who needs to have a sense of creativity and flexibility in their work.

Computer Programming: Like accounting, computer programming is a career that involves dedication to small details. Gemini’s flair for language really lies in their ability to weave words and express themselves in unexpected ways, so following the language rules of computing would ultimately prove frustrating.

Engineering: Most careers in the STEM fields are going to be a difficult fit for Geminis, who are much more likely to thrive in the humanities.

Gemini Strengths

There are a lot of things that make this zodiac sign ultra fascinating. Here are a couple of Gemini’s strongest qualities.

 

Charming: Geminis are the natural flirts of the zodiac! With their quick wit and easygoing nature, they are the life of the party and have no shortage of admirers.

Adaptable: Gemini is a mutable sign, which means they can more easily adapt to changes in their life or surroundings as opposed to cardinal or fixed signs.

Intelligent: Mercury’s influence and focus on communication plays a huge part in Gemini’s intelligence.

Curious: Geminis love getting into it—and by “it,” we mean anything and everything! It doesn’t take a lot to stoke their curiosity before they go down a rabbit hole of exploration.

Adventurous: From big trips to far flung destinations to spontaneous bar crawls around places you’ve never heard of, Geminis are always seeking out a new adventure!
