"Gemini's are sunshine mixed with a little hurricane."
This might be my favorite Gemini quote of all time, and it is, oh so true...
Gemini season, in the northern hemisphere, happens when spring is at the height of the season. Trees and plants are fully budding out. The sun is shining brightly but it's still green as you look all around you. You can just feel the intense vitality flowing freely on the earth and inside your cells.
So much attention and action is happening, that it is sometimes hard to keep up with it all.
That is the feeling you get when you spend any amount of time with a Gemini doing their highest calling. Just try to keep up with their intellect, their new ideas, their curiosity and their laughter. Fun, fun, fun is addicting and Gemini's typically do not have a depletion of fun. The way they look at life is anything but boring. Staying open-minded is the key to their sanity and they can always see both sides of any issue and shift their opinion between first and fifth gear.
I have many dear friends who are all in, on the Gemini front and one of their favorite lines is: "If I were the devil's advocate, I would say...", which I have to admit, I love about them. I value someone talking with me honestly and openly and any feedback they deliver, be it contrary to how I feel or not, is worthwhile for me to digest.
Gemini says, I THINK, and is always searching for experiences with mental stimulation. They typically age well as they possess the ability to have youthful exuberance, no matter how old they physically are. But as with any blossoming young person, they are easily bored.
So if you find yourself in relationship with a Gemini, be willing to experience a fast paced communication style. Know that Gemini's thrive on meeting new people, going to new places and having new experiences.
In astrology, we say that a person has particular traits. But honestly, we are not born, knowing how to do our Sun signs perfectly. We arrive here with a mission statement and for Gemini's, it looks something like this: In order to stay sane and to feel like my true self, I must learn how to be open, perceptive, communicative, inventive, creative and curious. Curiosity does not kill the cat when it relates to me. I must acknowledge that because I am inquisitive about many things, I must not get too distracted, must not be too restless and impatient and must not be too critical of others. I must stay on task.
When Gemini's do too much and don't take care to learn how to calm down, and are so busy that it feels out of control, their tendency is to breakdown in their nervous system. To stay in alignment and balance, Gemini's must stay vigilant about caring for their physical body as their tendency is over caring for their mind and ideas, as well as over-thinking and over-doing it.
Gemini's can help their immune systems and nervous systems by staying on top of their B vitamins. B vitamins benefit nervous system health and promote relaxation and rejuvenation within the cells.
Why might someone come into this world as a Gemini? Perhaps they have brought with them the tendency to make snap judgment opinions that they were not willing to change? Perhaps they need to learn not to believe everything they think? Perhaps it's time to appreciate diversity in all creatures, great and small?
Gemini's can heal the karma of the past, by gathering information, learn how to change their minds, and be willing to see each person's perception and be okay with that. To promote research for the sake of learning and to be mutable to the convictions of self and others.
"I'm a Gemini, so I change my mind every day." ~Natalie Portman
