Intelligent and freedom-loving, versatile and erratic, Gemini individuals tend to be a romantic challenge to any potential mate...and something of a mystery as well. The face of a Gemini is never a "blank page." The expression is either lit by a light from within or eroded by depression and moodiness. In addition, the emotions of Gemini natives are never at a standstill. In youth, eveything is either marvellous or absolutely awful...a tendency which is somewhat overcome with the experience of age. On the whole, Gemini men appear to be less moody in relationships than the female.

Gemini individuals are fascinated by all aspects of the concept of love, with the domestic angle being less of a fascination. Gemini subjects will definitely marry for passionate love and for no other reason...sweeping aside all older and wiser advice which may be offered, they will take the "plunge" exactly as the heart dictates. Those governed by Gemini are counted among the lucky few who most certainly know the deep expression of being truly "in love." This can sometimes occur more than once during the lifetime of those born under this sign. Those governed by this Sign will need a partner who understands them and who will accompany them to the heights of feeling. Since Gemini natives are children of the Air, they need to feel free to wander...both mentally and physically. Thus, if a Gemini individual considers that an institution has become outmoded (a "humdrum" partnership, for example), then he or she will have no reservations about quickly severing all ties and moving on. However, if a Gemini individual finds a partnership to be whole and complete, then he or she will be the most dynamic and loyal of mates.

There is a tendency in the Gemini nature to often speak before thinking and such words, though usually not intended to cause hurt, can fall flat when such individual fails to carry through on an intention or promise. It is not unusual for the partner of a Gemini native to feel left behind and lacking in importance when his or her mercurial partner discovers a fascinating new subject or person to explore and thus, words from the past become empty and hurtful. Gemini persons bring wit and laughter into a romantic interlude and may become disheartened (or even shocked) if their partners fail to go along with their ever-present sense of humor. The lust lust and needs of those who fall under the jurisdiction of this Zodiac Sign have a tendency to "come and go" with sudden speed and such individuals can "turn off" equally as quickly as they can "turn on."

In matters of the heart, Gemini natives treasure being mentally captivated. The partners they choose tend to be friends first and foremost and sweethearts second. Gemini mates can be the most fascinating and enyoyble partners of the Zodiac but are frequently perceived as fickle souls. Nonetheless, once those who fall within the jurisdiction of this Sign find the "right person," they are generally partners for life and make for incredibly trustworthy and wonderful spouses. Natives of Gemini need friendship and companionship...a partner who can share their mind explorations and journeys...as deeply as they need a lover and heart-mate. In general, Gemini subjects need someone who is secure or open enough to not feel threatened by quickly-changing interests, a trait inherent in the Gemini character.

In brief summary, Gemini individuals find the game of love to be something of an adventure, particularly since the chase itslef can seem to be so much more fun. The true question then becomes whether Gemini can find that one person who is able to stay the course and keep he or she living "happily everafter." If there are any doubts, then Gemini will simply keep on looking. These natives needs a partner who can be attentive and will naturally enjoy the inherent sparkle and wit associated with this Sign. A strong mate is generally preferred...not necessarily as intellectual, but one who can provide emotional stability. When actually in love, Gemini can be a very caring and thoughtful soul. However, more often than not, these subjects find themselves adrift...feeling vulnerable and needing something or someone to fill the lonely void. Although they adore the "party scene" and intense brainwaves, Gemini natives are prone to possess something of a melancholy spot for which tenderness and affection can prove to be the perfect antidote. At their best, Gemini partners are joyful, good-natured, broad-minded, experimental, radiant, friendly, enthusiastic, flexible and gentle. At worse, they are unreliable, fickle, insincere, self-focused, restless, critical and temperamental.

This combination sometimes leads to a great deal of bickering due to the strong differences of opinion about sex. Gemini is a mercurial sign and the mind plays an important part in all sexual encounters. The emotional Mars-influenced Aries native may prove be too much for the conventional nature of Gemini. All in all, Gemini respects the refined and intellectual approach to continual bliss and, over the course of time, the impatient Aries could find this frustrating...possibly trying to find a less difficult companion. Basically, this is far from a great match, but it can work with understanding and effort. Eventually, Gemini may prove to be the "reality check" that Aries needs to calm down. If not, then the Aries energy level may be far too much for Gemini to handle.

Nonetheless, this will certainly be a far from boring relationship. Both Aries and Gemini love to talk and they share a special compatibility, with Gemini being as restless and anxious to try new things as is Aries. There are no inhibitions on either side and Gemini is clever enough to counter the Aries need for domination. Eventually, Gemini may seek extra outside stimulation, but he or she is likely to be discreet about it. Both minds mesh well here...Aries being dynamic and intelligent with Gemini being versatile and ingenious. In sexual terms, Aries is likely to be the leader but Gemini will take delight in thinking up variations to keep Aries' interest at a peak.

As "next-door" signs, this combination may well prove to be best friends as well as sweethearts. Gemini is able to get Taurus out of the house and into the social life, thereby adding laughter and playtime to love. The soothing, stabilizing quality of Taurus has the effect of making Gemini bloom, teaching this sign to "smell the roses" and observe the beauties of life. However, as with all "next-door" signs, there can be a tendency for one to get on the nerves of the other. Gemini's quick changes sometimes confuse the more steady Taurus, while the settled ways of Taurus often baffle Gemini. Gemini has a tendency to play fast and loose with the truth...albeit all in the name of good fun...which can make Taurus "see red." Meanwhile, Gemini frequently views Taurus as being something of a boring creature.

Given that the Taurus homebody generally prefers one-on-one relationships while the social Gemini loves to flirt with a crowd, it is important that Gemini curb the inherent roving eye (and sometimes body) and plan to spend more time at home. Infidelity, often taken lightly by Gemini, is serious business to Taurus and the balance between freedom and license is not always easily attained by this pairing. In order to achieve longevity and enjoy life together, the Taurus/Gemini combination must take each other at face value. Gemini is only going to be able to rouse Taurus so much before he or she returns to the beloved creature comforts. Taurus may calm Gemini down for enjoyment of the traditionally finer things in life for a while, but eventually he or she will be scampering off, Taurus in tow, for a look at the latest gimmick to come down the pike. Nevertheless, if Gemini truly loves Taurus, then he or she has the ability to adapt to almost anything and, quite often, the inherent common sense of Taurus will bury itself in order to keep this match intact...if the love is there.

This should prove to be a compatible combination in that both would, at least, understand each other's changeable nature and sexual demands (or needs) would be mutual. There is the potential for an excellent partnership here, particularly where the principals are engaged in corresponding vocations, such as singer/composer or author/publisher, for example. The Gemini penchant for change and variety will keep this relationship "on the hop" and whether it produces happiness or sadness will depend largely upon one of partners paying attention...if only for some of the time. Discussion are likely to be lively ones between this pairing and while life will probably be restless and ever-changing, neither one would prefer it any other way. In short, The Gemini/Gemini mix makes for a versatile, charming and vivacious pair who will never get bored (or be boring) due to their interest in just about everything. Being fascinating conversationalists, this pairing will have a multitude of friends and the lifestyle pace is likely to be quite frenetic. However, plenty of socializing is paramount to this combination leading a happy life totether. This mix is comprised of two curious, witty and talkative individuals, both of whom will be somewhat childlike in their love of exploration and variety. They are unlikely to take life as seriously as most other couples.

This combination also has certain potential weaknesses in common which are likely to come to the forefront...being overly-willing to abandon a project or relationship when it becomes too difficult or demanding, for instance. Given that Gemini individuals live within their heads, there may also be a tendency to avoid paying attention to the other's feelings. When together, there may also be frequent word games, intellectual sparring and light banter. In other words, there is the potential in this pair to employ humor in order to gloss over serious topics and emotional issues which may lead to the relationship becoming superficial, unstable and extremely restless. The Gemini/Gemini combination actually stands a better chance at longevity if the couple meet later in life. However, this mixture will enjoy some wonderful times together no matter how long the relationship is fated to last.

The home-loving Cancer may find the social-loving Gemini too difficult to make this a successful relationship. While Gemini is constantly on the alert for change, Cancer is satisifed with becoming a truly domesticated mate. On the other hand, Cancer's moodiness may be far more than Gemini cares to cope with. Compatability here is actually a little better where the female is Gemini and the male is Cancer, particularly if there are several children to occupy the time of the Gemini female. Since Cancer is driven by emotion and feelings and, in general, prefers the constant, Gemini's unstoppable movement will prove to be very unsettling to this combination. However, this can prove to be an excellent pairing if the Gemini native is ready to settle down, since the passionate side of Cancer's nature will fulfill Gemini's physical needs, and the cheerfulness of Gemini's nature will brighten Cancer's disposition.

Nevertheless, by and large, this pairing has little in common to make for a long-term relationship. Gemini's tendency to "play at love" wounds the overly-sensitive Cancer and Gemini's flirtations will make a Cancer partner feel very insecure. Any affair between these two is likely to be a volatile one, since Cancer needs security and domesticity while Gemini loathes being "tied-down." While Gemini may initially be attracted to Cancer's emotional sensitivity, at the end of the day, the Gemini individual will probably find it to be too stifling.

Since Leo loves first with the heart and Gemini with the mind, this combination will soon find out that they are probably totally unsuited to each other. On the surface, there is likely to be great deal of mutual attraction. However, before much time passes, the passionate Leo is sure to clash with the unreasonable Gemini, who will undoubtedly complain that the Leo nature is too material, too possessive and far too demanding. Nevertheless, despite these drawbacks, there is reason for optimism regarding this pairing. If Leo is able to understand that Gemini may not always be around to provide the attention upon which this sign thrives...and Gemini can understand Leo's need to run the world...then this mixture of air and fire can prove to be a good one.

Not altogether a bad blend, the Gemini/Leo combination can complement one another. Generous Leo is usually willing to bend in whatever direction is needed...provided flattery leads the way...and both individuals possess a somewhat childlike, playful and fun-loving side which surfaces easily when they are together. There is also a mutual appreciation of drama and color, and each finds the other to be delightful and interesting in many areas. Nevertheless, Leo will invariably have difficulty in completely comprehending Gemini's desire for novelty, since it is inherent in the Leo character to make a committment and keep to it. In addition, Leo is a very proud sign with a sensitive ego and Gemini can be a merciless teaser, frequently not taking Leo seriously enough. On the Gemini side, Leo will most probably demand more adoration than Gemini is willing to give. Thus, though not necessarily the best blend in a romantic sense, the Gemini/Leo combination usually makes for an excellent friendship and will be an affectionate pairing between two people who truly enjoy each other's company and have many wonderful times together.

With Mercury as the ruling planet of both these signs, this combination is far from constant bliss and may prove too difficult for longevity. In Gemini, Mercury provides a calculating and logical nature while in Virgo, it provides a critcial and demanding one. Gemini's ever-present desire for change will probably too much for the realistic Virgo to handle. Points on which these two will agree, however, is the fondness for good clothes, cleanliness, and mutual desire for friends and associates who engage in intellectual and artistic pursuits. Indeed, it is through such channels that many Gemini/Virgo combinations are formed.

There is an equal nature regarding mental stimulation, social drive and business with this pairing which, if Virgo can learn to deal with the seemingly hair-brained schemes of Gemini...and Gemini can put up with the critical eye of Virgo...could possibly work out quite well. By and large, however, any romantic relationship is likely to be "star-crossed" from the very beginning, particularly since passion in this combination tends to run low and sexual encounters easily become somewhat chilly (not to mention Gemini's "roving eye"). In short, with both Gemini and Virgo being intellectual individuals who are, by nature, more rational than emotional, there will be good mental rapport in this pairing. There will also be appreciation for each other's wit and, given the understanding of each other's characters, the Gemini/Virgo combination often makes for a good friendship if not romance.

Astrologically, this combination of two air signs is considered to be an excellent one which can lead to a long and happy marriage. Gemini and Libra have much in common but also enough contrasts to make for an ideal partnership. Since Libra is ruled by Venus and Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planetary configuration is generally perceived as perfect. The intellectual and artistic interests here are compatible and Gemini's dual nature is understood by the Libra individual. This is likely to be a light-hearted and lovely affair, one in which neither is combative since they probably agree on almost everything. This will also be an affectionate and fun-loving pairing with both partners being fond of the social life, entertaining and travel.

In a sexual sense, both Gemini and Libra are fervent without being either jealous or demanding. Since Libra natives are very considerate and compromising individuals, there will be a strong desire to please the Gemini partner coupled with a willingness to cater to the Gemini taste for experimentation. In short, this combination makes for a stimulating relationship since each sign compliments the other and brings out the better part of the other's nature. Gemini finds it easy to communicate with Libra, who is only too happy to share information and ideas, and is easy-going enough to "roll" with the many moods of Gemini. Thus, this is likely to be a most harmonious pairing with perhaps only one or two drawbacks...both sometimes having trouble being decisive and both loving to spend money.

Any association of Gemini with Scorpio will result in the Gemini individual finally finding a partner who can surpass the Gemini urge for action. From a mental standpoint, Gemini is more than a match for Scorpio but from a sexual and physical viewpoint, Gemini is too modest to meet Scorpio's demands. On the other hand, the Gemini desire for freedom of action is sure to clash with Scorpio's jealous and possessive nature. While some Gemini/Scorpio combinations may work fairly well, the alliance usually has all the explosive properties of an atomic bomb for these are two very different individuals. Scorpio becomes intensely involved on an emotional level with particular individuals and places. Scorpio natives also bond deeply and becomes very attached to people. By contrast, Gemini looks on the lighter side of life and usually does not become as emotionally involved as does Scorpio. The blending of an air sign (Gemini) with a water sign (Scorpio) invariably leads to much difficulty in rectifying what are ultimately innate natures. Problematic to say the least, the Gemini partner in this combination will find Scorpio's intense emotions (which usually lack thought) to be quite hard to take. On the other hand, Scorpio is liable to find Gemini's intellectual approach rather boring and even somewhat cold.

The mix of Gemini's imagination with Scorpio's dynamic nature could make a good combination, assuming the two are able to get along with each other long enough. Sexually, this will be a passionate union, but one which is likely to burn out quite quickly. Scorpio is sensual, demanding, jealous and inflexible...Gemini is fickle, flighty, changeable and often superficial. Gemini is a social individual...Scorpio is by nature a private person. At times, there may be a total lack of understanding or appreciation between these two individuals. Since the suspicious characteristic inherent in Scorpio will probably be in constant turmoil over Gemini's casual attitude regarding love, any romantic liaison will almost certainly be over not long after it has begun.

Despite being Zodiac opposites, Gemini and Sagittarius share at least one common goal...freedom of limb and action. This is a magnetically-attracted combination which can prove to be quite compatible, since both are frank and outspoken, with a certain amount of personal freedom which is cherished. This pairing will find inconsistency mutually agreeable and thoroughly enjoy each other's minds, both having a wide range of varied interests. This will be a very busy and active couple who will get along well with each other and have a large circle of friends. The one problem here, however, is that the relationship could become rather superficial since neither sign likes to be tied down. However, the Gemini/Sagittarius combination almost always meets on common ground and both individuals can plan their lives with equanimity. Nonetheless, there will be the occasional disagreement or fight here...usually more for the sake of diversion than for blood. Sagittarius has a tendency to be more intellectual than Gemini, while Gemini is somewhat more social. Both natives are also overly-restless and argumentative. One major difference between these two will be that Sagittarius has convictions, beliefs, ideal and/or ethical principles which are very meaningful in a personal way. By contrast, Gemini seldom feels very strongly one way or the other.

This combination is likely to be inspirational in terms of each encouraging the other to learn, grow, take chances and make changes. It is often a hopeful and positive blend but, on a romantic level, there will probably be disappointment since neither individual is particularly demonstrative and Gemini is often far too quick to criticize under such circumstances. Any Gemini/Sagittarius affair is likely to have begun on an impluse...and is equally as likely to end in much the same way. Nevertheless, this partnership will remain able to laugh at life's ironies...and even at themselves when they are together.

This combination is destined to be "at odds," given that Capricorn is ruled by Saturn and Gemini by Mercury...a pairing of very different individuals who are not always very compatible. With Capricorn, patience is most definitely a virtue, but not so with Gemini. Unless there is a willingness on the part of the Gemini native to slow down and heed Capricorn's good advice, there will be much dissention and unhappiness in this relationship. Capricorn's immense drive to excel will likely prove too much for Gemini and until both are ready to "trim their sails," Capricorn (much like the goat which is the symbol of this sign) will continue to "butt" until the upper hand is gained. In addition, Gemini's inherent need to communicate can become "bogged down" under the influence of Capricorn and a truce may have to be called based upon "getting on with things." Nevertheless, this is not a totally bad combination since there are complimentary factors associated with the experience of Capricorn and the high spirits of Gemini...which can be mutually beneficial given that each partner will possess certain qualities that the other lacks. For example, Capricorn can provide the level-headed and grounded approach that Gemini needs, while Gemini can provide Capricorn will some much-needed fun and lightheartedness.

At the end of the day, however, the free-wheeling, anything-goes attitude of Gemini is likely to meet with opposition from the conventional, steady and conservative nature of Capricorn. Capricorn, a realist who is rather ambitious, pragmatic and serious about goals (and life in general), frets about security. Gemini, who takes very little seriously, is light, changeable, unreliable and sometimes frivolous, frets about loss of liberty. Gemini likes to play, especially with words or ideas...Capricorn usually has little use for such pasttimes unless there is some tangible "bottom line" use. Capricorn strives for order and routine, which can drive Gemini to distraction. Gemini's desire for a stimulating experience does little (if anything) to make Capricorn feel secure...and Capricorn's sober outlook often puts a damper on Gemini's high spirits. Basically, even at the outset of the affair, this combination is not likely to want to spend a lot of time together unless other astrological factors indicate a strong affinity. Initially, this pairing is seldom what might be romantically termed as "high voltage" but if the relationship lasts long enough, it could help develop Capricorn's sensual potential.

The caring and humanitarian thoughts of the innovative Aquarian native will find a willing home with the versatile Gemini individual. Uranus (the ruling planet of Aquarius) is full of surprises and sudden changes, which perfectly suit the Gemini nature. This combination also provides plenty of non-stop variety which affords the stimulation needed by the Gemini subject for his or her dual personality. This is a pairing which will get along wonderfully since both possess a similar approach to life and have an excellent intellectual rapport. Neither partner likes to be tied down and both prefer to keep things light and uplifting. There is also a sharing of taste here for novelty, travel and meeting new people, to say nothing of sparking each other's wit. There will be much tossing of ideas back and forth in this mix and intellectual companionship will be important to both partners. In this combination, each individual has in fact found a friend whose conversation and company is truly appreciated.

Gemini is always looking for surprises and Aquarius readily supplies them. However, there is a warning to be heeded here...when Aquarius wants to be alone, Gemini should not be offended since this is merely a passing condition and will soon disappear. In short, for this relationship to work, Gemini must be receptive to the powerful and paramount need in the Aquarius character for occasional solutitude. Both Gemini and Aquarius are unpredictable and things do not always run smoothly. Nonetheless, Aquarius adores Gemini's wit and good cheer and, if Gemini proves to be a little on the inconstant or unstable side, Aquarius is prone to be most understanding of the situation. That having been said, there are differences between these two subjects. Gemini is more adaptable and flexible in thinking and behavior than is Aquarius...Aquarius has beliefs, philosophies and/or causes which can sometimes inhibit the free and easy exchange of thoughts between the pair. Aquarius also has a tendency to become dogmatic or rigid (even while remaining quite progressive) and this can, at times, irritate and peturb Gemini. On a romantic level, there is often a lack of passion in this union and these individuals frequently make for much better friends than they do sweethearts. In fact, many Gemini/Aquarius pairings remain fast friends long after any affair has ended. If matrimony does occur, this combination is likely to be one of affectionate and devoted companionship rather than passion.

For any relationship between Gemini and Pisces to work, Gemini must be prepared to relinquish any and all outside interests, and devote total time and thoughts to the Pisces partner. Given this, the nature of the sensitive and distrustful Pisces is sure to prove too much for the liberty-loving Gemini to cope with. If Gemini would seek to nurture long-term happiness with a loving, possessive and clinging Pisces individual, then Gemini is obliged to be prepared to almost completely change his or her ways. This union can work, but it is definitely a question of balance. Any hope for longevity lies in the fact that both natives are inherently very open-minded, adaptable and flexible, receptive to many differing points of view and ideas. Both are also quite changeable and fluid...even inconsistent. Additionally, both these subjects are usually "live and let live" characters, but success with this combination is, at best, a long shot, with Gemini being constantly on the go...active and mentally stimulated...and Pisces being intuitive, dreamy, sensitive and driven almost entirely by emotional content. Gemini approaches situations or problems in a more cerebral and rational manner, while Pisces relies almost exclusively on intuition and feelings. Gemini may sometimes try to force Pisces to directly discuss an issue...usually a futile exercise. While Gemini often finds Pisces to be ineffable and enigmatic, Pisces sometimes finds the energy and hectic pace of Gemini rather unnerving.

Initially at least, Pisces will be attracted by Gemini's intellectual approach and Gemini will enjoy Pisces' emotion. Passion runs high in the Gemini/Pisces mix, but the emotional Pisces is too easily hurt by the thoughtless Gemini. Gemini is mischievous and playful, while Pisces is sensitive and takes everything to heart. Each partner in this combination has a tendency to practice deception...Gemini dissembles and Pisces refuses to deal with reality. In addition, Gemini needs freedom and new vistas while Pisces needs perpetual adoration. Thus, Pisces is unable to feel secure in a relationship with the "gadabout" Gemini and attempts to pull the net even tighter, causing Gemini to rebel within such a claustrophobic atmosphere.

When it comes to matrimony, Gemini individuals are probably most in tune with those
signs which also fall under the jurisdiction of the Element of Air...namely Libra and
Aquarius. Libra will be amusing, tolerant, possess sufficient sex-appeal and be clever
enough to keep Gemini guessing, while Aquarius will be fascinating, ambitious and a
worthy equal to the moods and fancies of Gemini. Other suitable unions would likely be
with Aries and Leo, although Gemini also tends to be strongly attracted to both
Scorpio and Capricorn. It is important that Gemini individuals not become romantically
involved with "worthy plodders," since they will only want to break free later in life.
