How to Understand Geminis

Gemini is (famously) the sign represented by twins. Geminis are typically very charming and personable. They tend to be particularly skilled in the art of conversation. Read on to learn more of their defining characteristics.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• An interest in astrology in general and the sign of Gemini in particular.

1. In addition to their intrinsic charm, Geminis also tend to have a youthful appearance and personality. They tend to be strong, active and physically fit.

2. A Gemini's love of action may also make him or her restless and fickle, however, and constantly in search of new sources of amusement. Unlike Virgos, who pride themselves on their ability to focus in on a task until it is finished, Geminis may find themselves flitting from task to task or activity to activity.

3. Because of this innate restlessness, and the accompanying "attention deficit," a Gemini may be extremely passionate about one activity one day and completely indifferent to it the next. These intense but fleeting passions can be difficult on a Gemini's loved ones. Self aware Geminis are often aware of this quality in them and make efforts to curb their own restlessness.

Tips & Warnings

• As I mention in all my eHow articles about astrological signs, if you are a Gemini, you may or may not find that these character traits describe you accurately. That's okay! Astrology is really supposed to be more for fun and pleasure more than for anything else.

on 8/12/2009 Both of my cousins and my mother are Geminis. My brother and I are both Virgos. I have both my cousin and mother living with me, and I seem to have many problems with them, especially my mother. Any idea on what to do?
