I don't think there a lot of Geminis in this forum based on the recent birthday wishes, though it seems other signs have things to say about us, lol.

Anyway...let me get this straight...your man is a Gem with Scorp Moon like me, right? And you're a Scorpio? Forgive me if I'm wrong; there are so many people referring to their Sun/Moon/Rising signs that I get confused, lol.

Anybody else...jump right in! Gotta get going but will be back later.

Oh, I'm just sitting here with a sly grin on my face and a twinkle in thy eye

I think you guys would be surprised that I don't actually say this much "out in the world". I'm actually quite quiet... oh, but it's true

I'll give some spins... Hee-hee...

Twin, yes. He's Gemini Sun, Scorpio moon and Leo Asc. However, I see quite a bit of Gemini in his appearance.

As I've said before... I always seem drawn to Gems for some reason. However, this one is the best one by far

I'm wondering if you've had any experience with Scorpios?

Also, I do believe you're right. I haven't seen too many gems on here. Mine (doesn't that sound possessive?!) doesn't get into the astrology bit.

Hurry back! I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I'm interested in the fact that you're drawn to Geminis and am wondering if there is something in your chart that would indicate this. Would you be willing to post your birth data here? OR e-mail it to me? I can tell Randall to give you my e-mail address if you'd like.

As for my experience with Scorpios: I have two Scorp cousins born only a day apart (one male from my Mom's side of the family and one female from my Dad's side, so they don't know each other). Anyway...I've been close to each of them. They are several years my senior and I used to look up to them as a big brother/big sister, (since I myself only have a younger brother). And they each took me under their wing, so to speak, at different times in my life. I've held much admiration for them both.

Back in highschool, my very best friend was a Scorpio girl with a Gemini Moon, just the reverse of me. We were very tight, and had loads of fun together!!! We shared a very special understanding of oneanother that "others" couldn't touch. We've since been in and out of contact with each other, but ours is the kind of friendship that even after years apart, can pick up where it left off, if you know what I mean.

As for romance with a Scorpio...there was only one. At first I wasn't particularly attracted to him, but he drew me in by writing me poetry and showing an interest in my mind (or so I thought at the time, lol). We did seem to connect well for a time (he had a Libra Moon, BTW); the relationship was very intense and I have to admit the physical part was terrific! But after a while, I began catching him in some pretty serious lies...and once I can no longer trust someone I'm out the door and I don't look back.

I've always felt this strong attraction to them. It doesn't matter where I go there they are. We seem to hit it off from the start. They're always the ones that will approach me and strike off a conversation with such ease.

Oh there is a couple of things that irks me ...... yet, trust me. There are quite a few things about me that irks them

I'm not meaning to offend with any of this... actually I say it all in good humor.

I've had some bad experiences with some and was going to write them off completely However, this one in particular has been in my life for 5 years well actually going on 5 1/2 years

We've had our disputes but always come back around. Where he has so much water in his chart, I think it makes him and I understand one another much easier.

I have a brother who is a Gem with Leo moon and him and I are pretty close. (the things we would get into)! I have a tighter bond with him than any of my siblings. I love them all in their own unique way... Well, you know what I mean. Him and I are buds.

Also, I don't think you guys are as judgemental as I can be. Which has really helped me out. Along with having Aquas and other friends in all the different elements earth/air/fire/water.

He's actually helped me loosen up a bit really. I do feel as if with all the Gems I meet that I'm their guardian, there to protect and handle all those more "grounded" tasks for them I admit it can be aggrevating at times. Yet, who can stay mad for too long. They just have to go out and do their thing or else they will go insane!

Hi Baushd: I would be interested in reading your posts as well.

I have so many more things I would like to discuss... I'll keep the questions and comments a coming.

You really do seem to have a wonderful way with Geminis! Like you know how to handle them (put on those Kidd gloves, lol) yet are secure enough in yourself not to take it too personally when they go off on a tangent.

And yes...Gems do need grounding, unless they have a lot of earth in their charts. My Gemini daughter's Gemini BF has a Taurus Moon and Virgo Ascendant and is wonderfully grounding for her, as she has Mars conjunct her Gemini Sun really emphasizing the Gem restlessness and "scatteredness" more so...plus she has a lot of water in her chart giving more pronounced moodiness. I have lots of water too, so I do understand this. Anyway...her Gem BF is so good for her because he can understand her being the same sunsign, yet shows amazing patience and practicality with her.

I too, need grounding, as I've only one earth planet, Venus in Taurus. But...my Dad's a Taurus and my brother's a Cappy...and both my ex husbands had a lot of Virgo in their charts; A LOT...so I've had plenty of grounding from outside sources!!

Well...I could go on...I'm sure you know one of Gem's biggest "flaws" (depending on one's perspective, I guess) is the tendency to talk a lot but I won't. I'll e-mail Randall about my address so I can take a look at your chart.

I have a Gem moon, and I have had my moments in the past that you guys have described in the other thread. I think we just get into this mode: and think afterwards, "Oh no, I shouldn't have said that!"

It only usually happens to me when something going on with them has directly related to me. The "shallow" description always bugs me. I can see how the "got more rabbit than Sainsbury's" mode could make someone think that way, but anybody close to me would explain that's not the case at all. I can be extremely quiet, but start yakking away to help somebody else feel comfortable. One description I found on the web a couple of years ago, concerning people with a gemini venus, is that they hate to see somebody left out, and that's so true for me.

Anyway, just offering a gem moon viewpoint.

Your input re Gem Moons is interesting; you know, I think one of the nicer things about the Gemini influence is their willingness to admit it when they make a mistake. But that's important when you consider there are plenty of people who maintain a "holier than thou" attitude and refuse to do this. I don't know if it's their own insecurity or what, but as a Gem my attitude is that of "student of life", willing to learn...and we usually learn best from mistakes. Just my opinion...but I know some people who are really hard on themselves; perfectionists if you will...and it's sad because we're all human and by definitition we're all here to learn and help each other. Getting a little esoteric here, but I think if we were "perfect" we wouldn't be on this earth struggling so much.

Just my two sense.

There were 2 Geminis that would tell some wild stories! They just aren't easy to but into.

The Gemini moon telling things... I think they get so carried away and want to share info. that they "slip up".
The one I know can be easy at pulling information from.

Liking to talk? Yeah, they all do. I mean, I can yack with the best of them (can't you tell). I mean, if I'm interested in the topic than I can talk and talk... However, I'm naturally a whole lot quieter than they are. So... the Gems blow me out of the water on talking bit.

I think you'r right Twin, on the having to be secure with yourself with a Gemini. I honestly have never got the feeling that he would do anything (being unfaithful) behind my back. I don't think that people can be lobbed into that type of description.

My moon is Libra and according to that I'm not very faithful myself. I've never done anything like that and don't intend to.

You have the Scorpio moon ... what do you think about this? I'm thinking that placement alone would throw a wrench into this "typical" gemini trait

Yeah, I've never minded anyone going to do their own thing, as I like my alone time so much that it all tends to work out

Also, it's a "I'm going out... do you want to come"? type of thing. From what I've noticed they enjoy doing things with you... yet, if you don't want to go... well... they will anyway Not a big deal really.

As to why Geminis wear grins when your're discussing something important...you got me! I can't say I do that; however if I'm in a stimulating conversation I may have a very animated expression on my face (not sure because I've never looked in the mirror during one, lol)...but I know that I become eager to respond to whatever is being said, and this may show in my face (?). Come to think of it...my daughter's Gem BF does have a perpetual look of amusement on his face...and a twinkle in his eye that I find endearing. It may not answer your question, but here's a guess: maybe they're thinking of something to say in response, and it could be something silly. Gems do sometimes inject a humorous remark during a serious conversation to "lighten things up" and it may not always be welcome depending on the subject at hand. Just a thought.

I don't know if you guys watch Buffy, but I "cried" three times over the weekend - the first was an episode of Buffy in the second half of the forth season where Oz comes back adn Willow has to choose between Tara and him, among other things. I cried for Tara! She was so nice and confused and had such a low self-esteem that I just felt for her. One other time I "cried" was during Angel's first episode (my Pisces GF is a BIG fan so we're collecting) when the girl was all alone but chased by everyone. I don't know what my point is, but we do have feelngs that come on occasion without us knowing why. I think that due to our "analysing" abilities that we don't see what's happened until after in a lot of cases, and that's when we have the emotions. Other times, I believe its the moon, though haven't looked into this too much. I have emotions from anywhere, and yet never have them...

One thing I am constantly aware of is our boredom thing. I always think striving for excitment is boring. I'm always learning that "nothing specifically" is fun, in that everything has potential fun (double dutch). But all said and done, everyone seems right about gems, we're "all over the place" and I even have a Virgo moon (but I think Pisces rising)! My advice is to *always* let us be, but keep your reins on!

Yeah, that grin thing puzzles me. Then whenever I call them (saying "them" as every Gem I know does it) on it, they try to wipe it away with a crazy expression on their face or by holding their hand over it.. and before you know it ... they're getting so tickled over it.. that they just bust out laughing

I don't know if they realize they're even doing it or not?? Yet, I think when I call them on it and get so puzzled and concerned as to "why" that they just lose it

Which gives me one of two reactions... either I'll get tickled with them or will get very annoyed

The crying bit... I've not witnessed that one! Oh, wait a minute. Yes, I have. Yet, it was really something that was quiete traumatic.

However, this one with the Scorpio moon... I've NEVER seen it. He's never seen me either.

I'm enjoying this little thread... the grin explanations cracked me up!

It is true...my mind is usually "all over the place" most of the time, I am too easily distracted...and I tend to be quite disorganized. My Gem daughter with Mars conjuncting her Sun is even worse!
BUT...thanks to my Scorp Moon and Saturn...once I make up my mind to focus on something, my concentration skills are good; in fact I can get so wrapped up in something I forget the time, to eat, and almost nothing short of someone yelling in my face can tear me away. Go figure...my personality tends towards extremism. Not sure if that's more of the Scorp or Gem influence, but it's pronounced in me. So...scattered one minute, practically obsessed the next! Anyone else notice this?

posted June 30, 2003 04:52 PM              

They don't take it to an extreme. Although, I've seen it on a few occasions. The temper can fly... and when it does... WATCH OUT!

It's more of a suspicious thing. Then it some how works it way into "thinking" more. Once that starts... well...

So yes... it can happen...

I know a Taurus boy with Gemini moon and rising, and I swear sometimes his eyes really do twinkle! Even if its dark I can see them and they look so clear and bright and it's hard to describe, but it's amazing.

Can't say that I've had much jealousy, but I once had a Sag friend that went after one of my ex-GF's, doing things behind my back and the like. I called him when I found out, and he couldn't stop laughing. I was *kind of* grinning, so had to hang up before it got out of hand but otherwise I'm not jealous, that GF (also Pisces) ended up "getting hypnotised" by a scorp, and now their living with each other (quite a complicated story but dumbing it down). When I find a partener is thinking else where, I just let them go, pick up my bag and walk off.

Can't say I ever get angry, but I have been and can be very hurtful but its rare and usually provoked by a feeling of utter helplessness or entrapment.

I don't really think its possible to think of one thing at a time - if we have to, I think we think about the future, possible enhancements, errors, etc. of the thing we're tasked with. That said, mu virgo moon keeps me fairly linear, but I can't concentrate on the same thing for too long as all the other factors take my concentration - I have to focus. When I said "cry" I kinda meant watery eyes which is all I can really conjure, unless I'm about to lose (or have lost) a soul relationship I would've liked to experience further, but then it's about two hours and I'm over it
