Gemini Saga
Gemini (♊) is the third astrological sign in the Zodiac, which spans the Zodiac between the 60th and 89th degree of celestial longitude. In the Tropical zodiac, the Sun
transits this area of the zodiac between May 21st to June 20th each
year. In Sidereal astrology, the sun currently transits the
constellation of Gemini from June 16th to July 15th (approximately).
Individuals born during these dates, depending on which system of
astrology they subscribe to, may be called Geminians.
Key characteristics and definitions
 |
| Gemini Saga |
According to astrology, it is governed by Mercury,
a planet noted for swift movement and symbolically associated with the
interchange of ideas and fluid responses to circumstances. Gemini is
also linked with the 'element of air'
which represents the mental and social realms, the ability to formulate
abstract ideas and to effectively interpret symbols, imagined concepts
and communicative signals.
As the mutable air sign, governed by a planet which is astrologically
given to the principle of transmutation and communication, the symbolic
focus of the sign falls upon movement, quick-thinking, intelligence,
free-flowing expression, gesticulation, and spontaneous reaction. The
sign is symbolised by 'the twins', which also presents duality: the
ability to relate to opposing visions simultaneously, to possess
dexterity and a talent for multi-tasking.
Compatibilities
Generally, the qualities of Gemini are considered to be compatible with those of the other air signs: Libra and Aquarius and to a lesser extent with the fire signs: Aries, Leo and Sagittarius.
However, compatibility based on sun-sign alone is considered to be only
a very general guideline. The branch of astrology dealing with
interpersonal relationships is called Synastry.
In this, astrologers analyse the horoscopes of both parties being
considered with particular reference to the positions of the Sun and Moon and Mars and Venus.
