Gemini Male

The Gemini male likes to travel and see the world. Consequently, it is probably unwise for him to settle down in a long-term relationship too early in life since he will only regret it at a later date. This is an emotionally chargeable man but not a bad-tempered soul. Indeed, the only thing that usually makes this male fractious is lack of sleep. He finds life to be a challenge and is so often exhausted by his own thoughts and emotions that he fails to cope in an efficient manner. Still, his energies are soon reassembled and he goes on with the fascinating business of living and watching others live. Although he may have many sweethearts prior to engaging in a long-term prospect, the Gemini man will devote all his thoughts and energies to pleasing the partner of choice. A fast-thinker who likes to have lots of friends, he prefers a partner who will keep him interested while also keeping him guessing. He also prefers an individual who can share his interests and often strives to keep his mate in the picture where his job is concerned. Because Gemini is the artistic Sign of the Zodiac, this man is probably engaged in a career connected with the Arts in some fashion. Therefore, he will need a relatively intellectual partner. Highly-strung, this is a male who can be passionate but tends to look for the ideal mixture of physical attraction coupled with mental and spiritual awareness in a mate. The man governed by Gemini is capable of adapting well to the character and personality of his partner and will be neither dominating nor demanding in a long-term relationship.

The Gemini male harbors an avid interest in people. He is an interesting and talented soul who is inclined to be flirtatious, but whose wandering fancy should never be taken seriously. Indeed, the man ruled by this Sign is blessed with a great deal of common sense and can close a potentially romantic chapter with more finality than any other male of the Zodiac when he suspects something valuable and dear will be lost to him should he choose to continue. If the man ruled by Gemini could find a partner who was capable of giving direction to his life as well as providing a personalized interest in family life without nagging or stressing this fact too much, then he would undoubtedly be more successful individual.

Gemini Inner Self

Adaptability is the keynote of this Sign. Gemini individuals are not only versatile, but are quick to grasp situations and will act on the spur of the moment, often very effectively. The essence of the Gemini character is expressed in joy, yet there can be moods of dark despair. This Sign is something akin to a house divided against itself, with the twin stars of the ruling constellation endowing the Gemini native with a most perplexing duality, although cases of true split personality are comparatively rare among subjects who fall under the jurisdiction of this Sign. Nonetheless, the Gemini mind does run to contradictions and when Gemini individuals go to such extremes, they manage to make their policy sound plausible (at least to their own satisfaction). Gemini natives are imaginative, generous and affectionate, but their frequent desire for change often makes them dissatisfied with existing conditions. Friends of those born under this influence of this Sign love the cheerfulness, quick wit and lively mind inherent in the Gemini make-up, but are often puzzled by the displays of withdrawal which are also a feature of this Zodiac Sign.

Once the urge toward any given project has lessened or the project itself seems outworn, Gemini individuals will drop it for something more novel or more intriguing. These people are popular and quick to acquire new skills but, as a result, are sometimes content with superficial knowledge and halfway results. They are, nevertheless, clever individuals and can easily cover or excuse their faults without ever intending to correct them. There is a natural talent in Gemini natives for driving a good bargain and while they may be primarily looking out for themselves, they are usually very helpful to others, often giving them ideas and offering them opportunities. In short, due to an insatiable urge to invade new territory, the Gemini individual tends to be free with what he or she does not need or want and may frequently neglect or reject much that could be useful and/or valuable.

Experience means little or nothing to Gemini subjects. They feel sure of themselves without it and on occasion, achievement of ambition may be a prelude to disappointment. Thus, Gemini individuals should use will power to curb the inherent scattering of activity, or it will tell upon them and deny them the contentment that should reward their efforts. If those who fall under the jurisdiction of Gemini are able to find the right niche and concentrate upon that goal, then they are more likely to find happiness. However, Gemini natives are prone to being unconventional and skeptical, possessing the habit of blowing hot and then cold. The friendly attitude of such people may shift to mistrust if problems are encountered, and their keen foresight may suffer through over-enthusiasm, which could lead to allowing real opportunities to languish while they pursue something else. Above all, Gemini natives should never waste what has been gained, for each success is pictured as a building block to something bigger and often, the obstacles that could ruin such hopes are overlooked. In short, those governed by Gemini should make the most of it while they can and remember that alhough they have been born under two lucky stars (instead of just one, like most others), this double luck can run out and result in nothing.

Mercury (Gemini's ruling planet) makes the Gemini personality dominate the looks of such individuals and they possess a fundamental attraction that is sometimes translated as personality, sometimes sex-appeal and sometimes leadership. Mercury is also responsible for Gemini's love of travel...new places, new people and new scenes all appeal to the Gemini individual as much as do new ideas. Gemini subjects receive stimulation from the world around them...rather like a butterfly which reaches out its sensitive antennae. This is transposed by Gemini (for the benefit of others less fortunate) into words, descriptions and joyful gossip. However, it is important for Gemini individuals to be in touch with those who understand them. If not, then there is a tendency to wilt and undergo an intellectual suffering that few will be able to fully comprehend. Gemini's reach for the perfect human relationship will probably mean that such an individual is constantly disappointed until he or she realizes that there truly is no such thing as a "perfect relationship." Indeed, it may be Gemini's secret fear that he or she will never find a true "soul-mate" for life.

Perhaps the worst fault of a Gemini individual is to shirk responsibility. There is a tendency here to want everything to go smoothly and according to plan without any personal effort. The emotions of Gemini natives can lead to exhaustion and worry without actually getting on with the job. The greatest Gemini talent is the effect this character has on others...and he or she must always be in contact with others. Gemini individuals need constant feedback for the good of their souls. While disappointment in the reactions of others may make Gemini natives sulk for a period of time, they do not harbor a grudge and so tend to keep their wide circle of friends. In addition, Gemini individuals usually have a very good vocabulary and an originality of expression when talking, coupled with an amusingly biased outlook on varying human situations. With regard to serious issues, however, Gemini is invariably scrupulously fair and unbiased. Those born under this Zodiac Sign should follow their twin stars by keeping the wide range of their interests alive. It is important that no stagnation be allowed to occur. It is also important for Gemini natives to curb the temptation to dissipate energy through having too many trivial interests and becoming disorganized...notes should be kept, lists should be composed and plans should be carefully laid. Unfortunately, this is often difficult for the mercurial-natured Gemini individual to accomplish.

In business, Gemini persons fit almost anywhere. They are good salesmen, promoters and often successful speculators. They do equally as well in advertising, publishing, television, transportation and other fields where they must keep up with modern trends. As teachers, writers, artists and politicians, Gemini individuals possess both the right attitude and aptitute to succeed. In business associations, Gemini tends to work well with Taurus, for persons born under that Sign of the Zodiac are usually receptive to Gemini notions and will have the stamina to see them through. The balanced nature of Libra and the straight-shooting qualities of Sagittarius make both of these Signs good business partners for those governed by Gemini. One of the strongest business combinations, however, is that of versatile Gemini and conservative Cancer since, in this instance, the latter serves strictly as a counter-balance rather than a "drag."

Gemini The Twins

Gemini the Twins : May 23 - June 21

Who is fond of life and jest and pleasure?

Who vacillates and changes ever?

Who loves attention without measure?

Why Gemini!

Gemini is the Third Sign of the Zodiac, associated with storytellers, communicators and youth. This Sign is symbolized by Twins who are, in and of themselves, their own representatives since no particular animal appears to be associated to this Sign of the Zodiac, with the possible exception of the wolf and its connection to the nurturing of Romulus and Remus, mythologic founders of Rome. In Egypt, Gemini was once known as the "Two Stars," named for Castor and Pollux which are the two brightest celestial bodies within the constellation. These stars have also been formerly referred to as "Hercules and Apollo," and "Triptolemus and Iasion." The Egyptians were inclined to illustrate Gemini by using the images of two baby goats as opposed to the human figures which are commonly used in modern times. Dominated by the planet Mercury, the planet of speed, Gemini individuals have a joy of expression, a quick mind and a certain sparkle which will always help them toward their goals in life. Gemini subjects are the Zodiac's lovers of language...the poets, the bards and the wordsmiths and verbal magicians. Those born under the Sign of Here, the inherent intellectual gifts often bring great success with no true effort, but Gemini natives are usually hard put to sustain it. Thus, these individuals should strive to learn perseverence and cultivate depth. They need to aspire to substance as well as style, attempting to take themselves...and their words...more seriously.

The symbol...or glyph...of Gemini resembles the Roman numeral II. It is representative of twins, as well as the possibility of choice between good and evil. In Vedic Astrology, this glyph symbolizes the manifestation of the Spirit as it enters the phase of duality. As thought reflects the subject...the object expression of Spirit...the glyph becomes an apt representation of the divison of Spirit and is indicative of polarity. Within the material world or manifested state, all things oscillate between the positive and negative...up and down...right and wrong...in and out, etc. The two vertical lines are also said to represent, as division, the male and the female. Thus, in a sense, the act of reproduction is governed first by Gemini.

Also known as the Sign of the Artist or Inventor, Gemini is Positive in polarity (as are Aries, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius). The general characteristics of Positive Signs broadly match those for the extrovert personality and such individuals are naturally more impulsive, buoyant, communicative and sociable than are the Zodiac Signs of Negative polarity (Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces). However, Positive Signs rarely display the same levels of sensitivity or the same depth of understanding of emotional subtleties as do their Negative counterparts. Positive Signs tend to crave excitement and thus, are inclined to direct their energies outward into the world around them. Aries is the most flagrantly extrovert of the Positive Signs (with Sagittarius a close second).

All Zodiac Signs governed by the Elements of Fire and Air are considered to be Masculine in nature. Thus, Gemini (ruled by Air) is considered Masculine (as are Aries, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius). Masculine signs are traditionally conceived as being more active and less receptive than their Feminine counterparts which are ruled by the Elements of Earth and Water (the Zodiac Signs of Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces). Masculine Signs focus primarily on spirituality and activity...both in the physical sense and mental sense. Masculine Signs are said to be diurnal or day-oriented. Therefore, the term "masculine" should be viewed in the same light as the Yang (or bright) Polarity of the Tao.

Gemini is the natural ruler of the Third House of the Zodiac, commonly referred to as the "House of Communication" and known is Vedic Astrology as the "Place of the Goddess of the Moon." This is the field which challenges an individual to organize personal experiences in order to form a unique picture of the world and then communicate those perceptions to others. It corresponds to the "little world" which includes an individual's neighborhood, local bank and post office, for example. The Third House operates basically on "automatic pilot," allowing the performance of routine tasks without any conscious thought. Traditionally, this house is associated with siblings, basic education, hand-eye coordination, manual dexterity and communication style...in short, many of the automatic skills learned during childhood and taken for granted in adult life. The Third House is governed by the Planet Mercury (which is also Planetary Ruler of the Sixth House).

The opposite sign to Gemini is Saggitarius. From Saggitarius, Gemini can learn to absorb a broader view of life and provide structure to the mass of information which is inherently collected. Thus, can Gemini natives learn to discover the truth.

Positive Traits: adaptable, versatile, intellectual, communicative, spontaneous, eloquent, youthful, lively, talkative, amusing, witty and logical.

Negative Traits: changeable, restless, inquisitive, inconsistent, superficial, cunning, nervous, tense and something of a gossip.

Likes: talking, novelty, variety, anything unusual and working on multiple projects at the same time.

Dislikes: being alone, being in a rut, mental inaction, conventional learning and feeling tied down.

Spiritual Goal: To learn how to cooperate Spiritual Correspondence: The Thrones Apostle: James the Younger Prophet: Zecharia Anatomy: Rules the arms, shoulders, lungs and nervous system Corresponding Tarot Card: The Lovers Associated Countries: United States of America, Switzerland and Wales Associated Cities: London, Melbourne and San Francisco Animals: Small Birds, Parrots, Magpies, Butterflies and Monkeys Watchword: Versatility Keynote: Variety Physical Manifestation: Expansion or Contraction Mental Manifestation: Joy or Sorrow Motto: My Thoughts Are Winged Quote: I Think http://www.novareinna.com/constellation/gemini.html

Gemini Owner - Pet Compatibility

Aries Pet

GEMINI OWNER: This is a marvellous combination and the Gemini human will have a great deal of fun with the Aries pet...after all, fun is what both pet and human are seeking. Whatever the Gemini human is up to, he or she must be sure to let the Aries pet "in on it," as long as it is not too mental in nature...after all, the Aries pet is more inclined toward physical activities such as a hike in the mountains, for example, or a run on the beach. The Gemini human will enjoy such pursuits, but he or she is also highly active in a mental sense and it will be important for this human not to forget about the Aries pet while engaging on a frivolous mental journey.

Taurus Pet

GEMINI OWNER: The Gemini human may expect more from a Taurus pet that the pet can (or chooses to) deliver. The human here is likely to want to teach the pet a myriad of tricks, but the chances are, the pet will refuse to budge. Taurus natives of any species tend to be very set, whereas Gemini natives are very flexible. However, since both Taurus and Gemini are basically good-natured souls, one will eventually give in...and it will most likely be the human.

Gemini Pet

GEMINI OWNER: This will be a truly magnificent partnership..a pair of souls who are constantly getting into all manner of mischief together. The Gemini human will teach the Gemini pet some tricks and, in turn, the Gemini pet may even teach the Gemini human a trick or two. With both the human and the pet here being on the same mental and physical planes, each will prove to be a great energizer for the other. In short, the Gemini human and the Gemini pet are extremely similar in character and the pet is likely to possess something of a sense of humor (many animals do). Each will feed off the other in this combination and life will be a round of almost endless fun.

Cancer Pet

GEMINI OWNER: The Gemini human may not have the patience...or the time...for the emotional needs of a Cancer pet. By nature, Gemini subjects (regardless of species) are not big on affection whereas Cancer subjects (regardless of species) are just the opposite. The Cancer pet would simply adore being caressed or stroked forever, but the Gemini human's idea of "forever" is probably around ten seconds. Thus, the kind of attention this human would be willing to give a pet governed by the Moon is not in keeping with this pet's inherent desires. Unless there is another human in the household who can "mother" the Cancer pet, then the Gemini human must try to muster a little more affection than he or she is used to giving, or allow the Cancer pet to be adopted by someone who is prepared to shower the little soul with affection. Of course, it would be infinitely preferable if the Gemini human and Cancer pet never embark on the relationship to begin with since they are totally incompatible.

Leo Pet

GEMINI OWNER: Human and pet here should get along wonderfully, as long as the Gemini human defers to the Leo pet...or at least makes the pet believe such is happening. Fire (the Leo pet) and air (the Gemini human) always work and play well together. Both possess plenty of energy and stamina. In addition, since both characters tend to be playful together, there is little danger of one rubbing the other the wrong way. However, it is important that the Leo pet not be agitated by the Gemini human. These pets have no problem in letting their human know when he or she is out of line, which could result in a bite or a peck if the Gemini human fails to live up to the Leo pet's high standards of respect.

Virgo Pet

GEMINI OWNER: A Gemini human will communicate famously with his or her Virgo pet. The pet here will be quick to understand and respond to requests, to say nothing of carrying them out in a dutiful manner at all times. Occasionally, however, the Gemini human may come to annoy the demure Virgo pet who, for the most part, prefers to be left alone rather than incessantly "needled" by the mischievous Gemini human. Nonetheless, all in all, the two temperaments here are relatively well suited to each other.

Libra Pet

GEMINI OWNER: The Gemini human should experience no problems whatsoever with a Libra pet since both pet and human here resonate to the same music. Both are more mental than physical...yet, there will be no resistance from the Libra pet should the Gemini human wish to go for a skip around the block, particularly if there are other "creatures" out there with whom the pet can socialize. This combination makes for a strong camaraderie in both a mental and physical sense. The energies will flow smoothly and there should rarely, if ever, be any snags in this relationship.

Scorpio Pet

GEMINI OWNER: The comination of a Gemini human with a Scorpio pet will, at the very least, be an interesting one, particularly since it is inherent in the Scorpio nature of all species to control things. It is lucky that the Gemini character is not normally a demanding one, thus resulting in next-to-no friction in this relationship. The Scorpio pet will do whatever he or she wishes to do...and when he or she wishes to do it. It may be that the pet here appears to be too mellow for the Gemini human but, in actuality, the Scorpio pet is right on top of things, quietly checking everything to ensure that all is in order. Scorpio pets tends to be smarter than most humans realize and will perceive his or her Gemini human as someone who indulges in frivolous and senseless behavior. This pet truly has no use for any interaction involving learning tricks or playing "fetch." In truth, he or she feels far too superior for such activities. The best thing a Gemini human can do with a Scorpio pet is simply to allow the pet to do his or her "own thing."

Sagittarius Pet

GEMINI OWNER: A Sagittarius pet will be the dream companion for a Gemini human. In short, this is a perfect combination. There is not much more that can be added to the above statements, except to say that this pairing could very easily become the best of friends.

Capricorn Pet

GEMINI OWNER: There is probably only one thing in common between a Gemini human and Capricorn pet...neither is particularly warm or affectionate. This is not to say that neither pet nor human have feelings...just that both prefer not to expose such feelings. In a more positive sense, there will be no "locking of horns" here. It is inherent in the Capricorn nature (regardless of species) to be very determined and unswerving in personal desires. The Gemini character (regardless of species) tends to be bored very easily and can quickly change from one interest to another. Thus, this is where a Gemini human and Capricorn pet may not see eye-to-eye. The Capricorn pet may spend hours trying to locate something and refuse to give up until the object is found...for a dog, this could be a buried bone, or for a cat, a particularly elusive mouse. If the Gemini human has other items on the agenda which also include the Capricorn pet, then the human may have a hard time tearing the pet away from his or her extremely important and self-imposed task. Since it is also inherent in the Capricorn nature to run things, it will not be easy to sway this pet away from what he or she wishes to do.

Aquarius Pet

GEMINI OWNER: An Aquarius pet could prove to be a lot of fun for the Gemini human. Although Aquarius is a "fixed" sign and Gemini is a "mutable" sign, both pet and human are governed by air...which means they have similar tendencies, likes and dislikes. Both the Gemini human and Aquarius pet will operate on nervous energy, so neither is likely to tire out the other. It could well be that the Aquarius pet is not as focused as the Gemini human would like, but the human cannot fail to enjoy the fun-loving and friendly manner of an Aquarius pet. However, since neither pet nor human tend to get overly-friendly, neither will infringe upon the other and there will be a fair amount of attention given on both sides without either expecting much more. In short, both the Aquarius pet and Gemini human are capable of entertaining themselves...or each other...while still maintaining a relatively health distance.

Pisces Pet

GEMINI OWNER: A Pisces pet may not be spunky enough for the energetic Gemini human. All Pisces natives (regardless of species) require a soothing existence...one in which the energy level is low and the level of tenderness is high. The reverse is usually true for Gemini natives (again, regardless of species). Thus, the Gemini human will probably not receive from a Pisces pet what the human here would like...spontaneity, vivaciousness and alertness, for example...and the pet may feel deprived of what he or she needs as well...lots of affection, a quiet environment and, most of all, an attentive and loving human.

Gemini Pet - Owner Compatibility

ARIES OWNER: This is a good combination for both pet and human. The energy between these two will run high and there is a naturally strong bonding. The Gemini pet will be eager to accompany the Aries human on any venture the human is willing to share with his or her companion...particularly if it involves the outdoors or the learning of new tricks.

TAURUS OWNER: This combination is likely to be both interesting and nerve-wracking. Since the Gemini pet operates on an abundance of nervous energy and the Taurus human is likely to be more grounded, the pet here is sure to give the human a run for his or her money. The Gemini pet will probably want to be constantly entertained, either by a variety of toys, learning new tricks or expecting constant human attention. Since the Taurus human would undoubtedly prefer to "stay put," he or she may sometimes feel somewhat frazzled by the Gemini pet...especially if the pet happens to be a dog, bird or monkey.

GEMINI OWNER: This will be a truly magnificent partnership..a pair of souls who are constantly getting into all manner of mischief together. The Gemini human will teach the Gemini pet some tricks and, in turn, the Gemini pet may even teach the Gemini human a trick or two. With both the human and the pet here being on the same mental and physical planes, each will prove to be a great energizer for the other. In short, the Gemini human and the Gemini pet are extremely similar in character and the pet is likely to possess something of a sense of humor (many animals do). Each will feed off the other in this combination and life will be a round of almost endless fun.

CANCER OWNER: The human here is likely to need a lot more attention from the Gemini pet than he or she is probably going to receive. By nature, Gemini natives of all species (including humans) are very frivolous souls who refuse to take things too seriously and do not require (or give) much in the way of affection. Since it is inherent in the Cancer character to be needy, moody, sedate and affectionate, the nervous, very active and inattentive Gemini pet will be far from an ideal choice.

LEO OWNER: This combination will undoubtedly prove to be a good one. The Gemini pet is as flexible as the Leo human and will likely comform to whatever the Leo human suggests...which is exactly how the Leo human likes things to be. The human here will enjoy the pet's yielding manner, to say nothing of the pet's constant sense of fun and frivolity. In short, the Gemini pet will share the Leo human's enthusiasm for adventure and will prove to be a magnificent companion in any variety of activities that the Leo human chooses to undertake.

VIRGO OWNER: Even though the temperaments of the Virgo human and the Gemini pet may not be perfectly matched, these two are likely to share some scintillating moments and the Virgo human is flexible enough to indulge the Gemini pet's desire for short, sweet games and romps. However, the Gemini pet may not have the patience to sit around watching the Virgo human engage in homely activities. Virgo natives like to teach and Gemini subjects are eager to learn, so this is probably where pet and human in this instance will connect the most. The more things the Virgo human can teach to his or her Gemini pet, then the happier both will be and the healthier the relationship. Lack of this type of interaction will probably result in both pet and human driving each other crazy.

LIBRA OWNER: Both pet and human here are air signs, which is favorable for general compatability, but the Libra human will be more sedentary than the Gemini pet who, more often than not, is likely to be very active. There will be some common ground on an actively mental level which will aid communcation between the two, and the Gemini pet will enjoy the endless tricks that the Libra human will tirelessly teach, so both pet and human will enjoy some type of intangible link...although the Libra human is not likely to be able to pinpoint the exact nature of the bond.

SCORPIO OWNER: The Scorpio human will likely tolerate a Gemini pet in the same manner as a babysitter tolerates whoever he or she is babysitting. The human here will appreciate the playful demeanor of the pet up to a point...or until the Scorpio human has "had enough," and it almost goes without saying that once Scorpio natives have "had enough," then it truly is "enough." The Gemini pet will not present much trouble to the Scorpio human when it comes to being disciplined. As much as the pet will enjoy being frivolous and mischievous, the Gemini pet is also a fast learner...particularly with strong-minded humans such as Scorpio. Still, when all is said and done, the Scorpio human will appreciate the Gemini pet for punctuating his or her days with moments of gaiety and lightheartedness.

SAGITTARIUS OWNER: This is a remarkably good combination of pet and human...a pair who will take to each other from the moment they first meet. There is a marvellous chemistry here...temperaments, energy levels and interests all knit very nicely, and there will constantly be fun times because both the Sagittarius human and the Gemini pet are playful by nature.

CAPRICORN OWNER: If the Capricorn human is a carefree soul (which is really something of a contradiction), then he or she may enjoy a frivolous Gemini pet. If not, then a Gemini pet might be exactly what the Capricorn human needs in any event. This pet might actually make the Capricorn human smile...or even laugh...and may encourage this human to get out of a rut by proving that life really can be fun. Although this combination may not be temperamentally suited, there could still be a "certain something" in the relationship to make for good friends. One thing both have in common is that neither tends to emote very much. The Gemini pet will be expressive, at least, but not particularly affectionate. The Capricorn human is not even very expressive and rarely displays affection. However, on the other hand, pet and human here may only rub each other the wrong way in a figurative sense. The pet will be too active and expressive for the Capricorn human...the human (never wanting to go for a walk or indulge in play) will be too "stodgy" for the Gemini pet. In short, this is possibly a good combination...but not one which is likely to turn out very satisfactorily for either.

AQUARIUS OWNER: This combination will indeed prove to be be a fun relationship. Both pet and human operate principally on nervous energy and can frolic almost constantly without tiring each other out. Although the human here is a "fixed" sign and the pet is a "mutable" sign, both are governed by air...which means they have similar tendencies, likes and dislikes. In addition, both Aquarius human and Gemini pet prefer not to get too friendly, so neither will infringe upon the other. There will be a fair amount of attention displayed on both sides, but neither pet nor human will expect much more than what is given. In short, the Aquarius human and the Gemini pet are perfectly capable of entertaining themselves...or each other...while maintaining a relatively healthy distance.

PISCES OWNER: Allthough the Pisces human is likely to be constantly amused by the Gemini pet's spunk, agility and intelligence, he or she may not possess the "wherewithal" to go along with everything that the Gemini nature needs to express. The Gemini pet is very active...both physically and mentally...and will always be looking for something "fun" to do with much eagerness and impatience. The nature of the Pisces human is more in keeping with "lying low" and not indulging in anything too active. At best, this will be something of a "run-of-the-mill" relationship for both pet and human.

http://www.novareinna.com/constellation/owner.html#3

Gemini Dog

The Gemini Dog will be restless, versatile, exuberant and many other things as well...all at the same time. He or she is easily able to communicate feelings (whatever such feelings might be) and will soon have any owner well-trained. This split-personality dog is, in essence, an eternal puppy, quickly bored and requiring constant attention. Physically, the Gemini Dog is likely to be slightly underweight due to the fact that he or she goes everywhere "at the double." An alert and graceful creature, the nervous energy of the Gemini Dog enables this canine to keep going all day, should the need arise...and even when there is no need. However, the minute the Gemini Dog is asked to undertake anything boring or mundane, he or she will be overcome by nervous exhaustion and collapse into a shivering, twitching, hyperventilating wreck. A puppy governed by Gemini is sure to bring chaos into any home. To this little soul, everything will be new...the house, the people, the garden...and the happy pup will be more than content to explore, anxious to learn everything about his or her new surroundings and those with whom he or she is going to be living. The length of this "Indian Summer" will depend upon every variable that could possibly be imagined...the number of rooms, number of people and size of the garden, to name but a few. In short, a Gemini Dog oozes charm and it is not long before he or she will have the entire family (and most of the neighborhood) wrapped around his or her dew-claw.

The Gemini Dog is difficult to train, firmly believing that he or she knows what is best. However, if the impatience of a Gemini Dog can be overcome, then an owner will soon be able to teach this canine an entire battery of tricks...anything from "playing dead" to somersaulting through flaming hoops...for this is a dog who loves to "show off." With fleet-footed Mercury as his or her Ruling Planet, the Gemini Dog is one of the Zodiac's fastest runners and not surprisingly, any Greyhound born under the influence of this Sign is likely to enjoy much success at the race track. It is important to note that the only time an owner will be absolutely sure of the whereabouts of the Gemini Dog is when he or she is attached by a leash. The remainder of the time, it will be anyone's guess. Much like the "Elephant's Child," who always wanted to know more, this canine will be inquisitive and inquiring. The Gemini Dog thrives in new environments and will love it if the owner boards him or her with a friend for a few days. However, it is an unfortunate fact that this is a dog who tends not to be overly-faithful and given the opportunity, may well run away forever.

It takes the strength of personality found in a Leo native to help the Gemini Dog become more decisive, and a natural sympathy between the two usually ensures compatability. Aquarius owners, being broad-minded enough to allow things to follow their natural course, will also find the Gemini Dog to be a suitable pet.

Gemini Cat

Gemini is the Sign of the kitten-cat...the exaggeratedly playful feline who is fickle and indecisive to the point of distraction. Blessed with the gift of eternal youth, this cat will fritter away his or her life in a muddled confusion of comings and goings...ditherings and datherings...for this is the born explorer of the cat world. The Gemini Cat is a highly intellectual creature but lacks the ability to make much sense, twittering and squawking at owners most of the time. This feline is a lively and enthusiastic cat, but possesses something of a split personality, which only serves to further complicate an already complex character. It is not often that the feline species will obey a human command, but many Gemini Cats seem to be the exception. Being the most communicative Sign of the Zodiac, these felines appear to actually understand the human language and may even "meow" back as if in answer. Though adverse to being restrained for such basic tasks as baths and nail-clipping, the intelligent nature of the Gemini Cat will allow an owner to prevail...provided the nasty experience is supplemented with loving praise and a favored treat. Physically, the Gemini Cat will always stand out as the cat with two heads...an optical illusion which arises from the ceaselessly agile movements and restless gestures. A highly-strung, hyperactive soul, this feline possesses small features and brightly-eager eyes that are constantly on the move. Gemini Cats are sleek and long-limbed, blessed with probably the most acute eyesight of their species. The actions of this feline will always be erratic. He or she advances in short, quick flits which stop as suddenly as they started. Then, this feline will be off at a tangent from his or her original direction. Problems often surface when this cat is expected to do something that he or she does not want to do...perhaps stay inside at night, for example. Under such circumstances, the Gemini Cat will respond by collapsing in a heap of nervous exhaustion, refusing to move and expecting to be waited on hand-and-paw until the restriction is lifted. Being exceptionally bright creatures, the Gemini Cat will soon learn how to open any cat-flap.

The Gemini Cat views the home as one glorious adventure playground created especially for his or her enjoyment. This feline will cavort endlessly, sliding down banisters and climbing up curtains, but hardly ever sits still long enough for a cuddle. It is hard to believe that just one cat could cover so much ground and create such widespread destruction in a 24-hour span as can the Gemini Cat...but he or she is only doing what comes naturally. In general, the Gemini Cat is a charmer...a true social success capable of winning over even the most fervent cat-hater. The fun-loving nature and bubbly personality of this feline makes for a thoroughly entertaining pet...provided the owner can cope with the chaos which is sure to follow in his or her wake and is prepared to provide plenty of emotional support. The ancient astrologers made Gemini the ruler of sparrows, so any owner should be prepared for this feline to drop the occasional dead offering at his or her feet.

The Gemini Cat truly comes into his or her own when living with a Libra owner and the infectious happiness will be quite obvious. Though Libra is nowhere near as flippant as Gemini, these two signs will share a rather lively relationship. The second-best choice for an owner of the Gemini Cat would probably be an Aquarius native, provided water does not comes into play too often. This feline finds it easy to make friends with most animals, including dogs, and simply adores the companionship of other cats.
