Ruling Planet : Mercury
Adaptable Gemini is the first Air sign of the zodiac. Geminis are, above all, restless and inquisitive, forever seeking metal stimulation. Their quest for knowledge is wide-ranging, for their curiosity about life is rarely satisfied. Ruled by Mercury, the messenger of the gids, they are superb communicators whose ability to broadcast their ideas through writing or speech is one of their strengths.
Geminis require plenty of change in their daily lives. Without it, they become depressed and nervous, but rarely stay in this state for long. A dual sign, their nature is traditionally double-sided - one twin representing the witty, charming optimist, the other bleak, morose and pessimistic. This, along with their inability to follow things through, represent their most negative trait. Mercury was also the god of liars; the Gemini facility for language has produced some talented dissemblers.
Gemini in Love
Fickle and flirtatious, Geminis make playful, attrative lovers. They collect many admirers along the way, but find it difficult to sustain deep emotion. Social creatures, they resent anyone who tries to tie them down to alife of routine domesticity. Their ideal partner is entertaining and witty, with an absorbing life or career or their own.
Marriage and commitment are difficult for the typical Gemini, for their emotions are as changeable as their moods. With an undemanding partner they will usually remain faithful, but are notoriously prone to 'second strings' and double lives. Fearing emptiness, they will often marry more than once in an attempt to earth themselves. However happy they are with a partner, they often remain lifelong flirts and free spirits.
