Anyway, tell me about your Gemini placements and how the hyper and all over the place Gemini placement works in combination with the slow and earthy stability of your Taurus Sun.

I'll go first, my Taurus side is stereotypically indulgent. I love to sleep, snack and all around just lounge about. But when my mind gets triggered about something it wants to totally emerge itself in this new subject. Maybe my Mercury trine Pluto comes into play here as well. However, in true Gemini fashion, at a certain point I will get distracted by something else... A new intellectual pursuit or a snack.

I don't know, everyone keeps saying how people with Gemini Venus are ***** who love to sleep around, cheat on their partners, are interested in "no-strings-attached" arrangements etc but I never really liked that. On the contrary, I'm 100% monogamous and when I'm in love with someone, I don't have eyes for anyone else. It's also very hard for me to be interested in someone erotically/romantically. I wonder if that's my Taurus Sun—I crave stability and I hate surprises.

I was told I’m stubborn but I think it’s more likely that I too often let my intuition rules me due to the heavy Neptune in my chart. It can appear frustrating because there will be this seemingly amazing thing in front of me but I have no desire to possess it. Over the years I’ve learned to trust my own intuition as following well-meaning advices hadn’t led me to good end. I guess one man’s meat is another man’s poison. Mercury in 12H means I was a quiet child. I observe more than I speak and I’m slow to form opinions, not because I’m stupid (ahem) but I see layers rather than just on face value. Due to this, I tend to give people benefit of the doubt, unless all doubts removed. One typical Taurus trait I possess is I tend to mind my own biz, and I prefer others to leave me alone too.

I’m a sleepy head. I hate waking up early in the mornings so I struggle with regular 9-5. I function better at night and I think this is more a 12H thing. I used to laugh when people say Taurus love to cook but now I realised that I do! 😆 I love food but I’m not a big eater. I’m selective with what I put in my mouth, preferring savoury to sweet stuff.

My Gemini traits make me sociable, quick-witted, curious… but I rarely let people get too close too quickly. I hate it when people act like they know me damn well when we’ve barely spoken to each other. Or they think they know what I’m thinking/feeling when they know nuts about me and my life (so this kinda woe isn’t unique to Scorpio, haha). I realised that Geminis say a lot but nothing at all. 😆 I don’t tend to let people know the real me. Not good with talking about feelings, that’s the problem… and it’s so changeable. That’s why it’s hard to get to know a Gemini.

I don’t trust people readily due to being misunderstood and betrayed many times before. I can quietly sit at a corner and people think I’m plotting world domination, lol. I should check their charts as they probably have heavy Pluto/Scorpio in their natal. 😁 The last friend who thought I was a **** *stirrer has Scorpio rising with 8H Moon trine Pluto. She doesn’t represent all Scorpios of course but definitely the low-vibrating ones who think everyone is evil.

I definitely feel that Gemini has an undeserved bad reputation. There are alway good and bad expressions of every sign. It seems like a couple of bad Gemini apples ruined it for a lot of people. Both my mother and my grandfather are Gemini Suns and I used to laugh with them until my belly ached. One of my favorite memories is that my mother and I had come up with our own weird language. Other family members would just frown at us, but not my grandfather. He just picked it up as if he was part of it all along. It is such a wonderful feeling when someone just gets you.

I don't have a Gemini Venus, but my H7 Ruler Mars is parallel (and antiscia) Mercury. For me it is also very important to have that intellectual connection. I find it very attractive if I can have a stimulating conversation with someone. And in the end we all look like raisins anyway, so I'll choose an attractive mind over an attractive body anytime.

Like you, I'm pretty chill unless and until an idea takes hold in my mind. Then I can be off to the races with it.

I have Sun conjunct Saturn in Taurus + Mars parallel MC in Gemini. Chart

I prefer routine and consistency, but the more I'm active with creative ideas, the less I care about routine. I just go with the mental/creative flow.

Consistent physical exercise, mostly walking, helps my mind stabilize more and I feel better for that kind of routine. It helps me smooth out any excess nerve/mind energy so I can focus better and think in a more balanced way.

I think so. I don’t usually have hidden intentions but people often think that I do or I’m some kinda ringleader. My Mercury is sextile Saturn quincunx Moon. I’ve a serious mind, I think a lot, but have trouble expressing them. Sometimes I second guess myself. It’s especially tough when I was a kid.

People say Mars in Gemini are players I'll admit that sometimes I do talk to multiple guys at once but I don't sleep around at all. I did start talking to other guys while I was still with my ex. But that was because I was sick of his crap. I still didn't physically cheat though.

I'm hoping that me working as a teachers assistant will help with my Gemini Mars energy.

Hi Kannon, thank you for your reply! I definitely feel more focussed when I have exercized. Walking helps clear my head, but with my Saturn conjunct my Mars I really should to train with more resistance. I am thinking about starting with kick boxing after the summer.

Sometimes I wonder if I can ever be fully committed to just one person at a time. Honestly sometimes I think Gemini Mars is worse than Gemini Venus. Because Mars is our actions and it represents sex. So it's hard to be fully committed when you have an air Mars.

A Taurus Sun with say Gemini Venus and Aries Mercury is going to tend to be more generally active than a percentage of other Taurus highlighted folks, unless those Taurus folks have like Mars or Mercury in the 1st or something like that.

With Libra Rising and Venus in Taurus conjunct Jupiter and Sun conjunction, you must be really beautiful/attractive, especially facially.

Earth energy can be nice. I think the reason why I came in with so much in this life, was to focus on getting more grounded and practical in this life. I come from a lot of water and air in a past sense (Angular Pisces South Node, Libra Moon ruling 12th and with Venus in Aquarius angular, Scorpio IC).

But Cap Sun and Merc, Virgo N. Node, Jupiter, Mars, and Saturn, and with Sun being the chart ruler, Cap gets doubly emphasized.

If the Mars Saturn conjunction in the 10th is in aspect to the Asc, it could indicate an alternation from the archetypes of the Signs involved, and perhaps indicate a shift towards a more Yang type of look (both are individually quite Yang).

Not that it is that important anyways. I think a person's character and vibe is far more important than what their body looks like.

But yeah, back to Mercury in Gemini.
