I think they're underappreciated for their gifts of understanding subtlety.

I normally read the reply's first then get some idea if i want to say something or not.

So far i think your reply's are right.

monnie- I also have an aries moon, i use to hold grudges and sometimes i still do... but most of the time its more like a passing moment thing thought.

I agree we can get bored easily, last summer i got bored and i just took off to hardware store, looked around and then said i'm going to build a shelf just like that out of the blue.

Cool, he has gemini in mercury i have it also.

I'm guessing he's vary logical minded and he can keep himself up all night thinking or analysing whatever is on his mind.

I find that its the odd things or things that stand out that always get me and I end up trying to figure out how to make something thats ilogical sound logical.

Its not me.. i think it might be all gem's.

There was another gem in my programing class, he's a vary bright guy. Anyway he whould always give me looks and i whould be saying what is it? since its not normal and me wanting to make since of it, he whould always be saying just testing your reaction. Of course he got my attention.

So then comes next semister I'm talking to one of the girls in the class about riki healing and now i get his attention....see the trend.

but, As much as i whould like to think that gems are all the same i can actually see a diffrence in some of them. Theres at least about six my program, including me and we do have some similarties and diffrences.

Of course i'm more of a quiet one thought.

I also agree with AG about them espousing Taurean morals - at least in the case of my Gemini. Then again, his chart is strongly focused in the second house and he also has Saturn in Taurus. He has never been unfaithful to any of his gf's, even when confronted with temptation he has let the other woman know that he's taken - so that's very Taurean. Gemini's also seem to look for loyalty from their partners.

As for fighting - yes. It's the irritability that sets it off.

One re-occurring theme with Gems, as mentioned above many times in this thread is their mood swings. I agree!! I have observed it in my friends, they can become very passionate very quickly about a personal issue that seems to impinge on their sense of freedom. I'm exactly the same way. Maybe it has something to do with the duality of the twins, one being earhtly and the other being heavenly. Sometimes it feels like there is an internal battle raging, as I desperately try to integrate both natures equally.

I've noticed that I seem to get most irritable (and the same is with my other Gem male friends) when life is structured or ordered in some way. Planning seems to agitate me, bringing out my impatience. I constantly here myself (and other Gems) express vididly:
"Live the moment! Lets just do this spontaneously and see where it takes us! Where is lifes mystery if it is enveloped in a thick coat of routine??"

And then the internal battle usually commences. On the one hand, the earthly twin knows the value of constancy and steadfastness. These are key elements in the process of planning and order. And on the other hand, the heavenly twin is suggesting that planning for the future is missing the moment. Theres a part of me that links planning with obligation, and this is something that makes me feel very uneasy. It doesnt feel natural and Im still searching for the balance.

I've been with my Sag girlfriend for over 2 years now. Complete opposites! But very well complimented! When we argue it can become quite intense, although we have found that most of our arguments are based around 'what we are both obligated to do for each other'. Sag and Gem share the characteristic of freedom-loving natures. Many times our relationship has struggled due to 'expectations' placed upon each other that inhibit the flow of creativity. A Gem finds it much easier to make a choice if he knows he has a choice!

I'm not sure if any of this has been very coherent, but I will happily add to it if needs be. Just one more thing - there seems to be quite a common misconception that Gemini men become very bored very easily. I've never seen this in any of my friends, and never experienced it myself. Sure we change our interests often, the mind is always asking new questions. But on a personal note, a Gem man will never lose interest in a relationship without first experiencing huge battles within himself, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Relationship problems usually hinge around a Gem declaring his freedom and his partner telling him he is not responsible or committed. Then will follow a period of silence and detachment from the Gemini. But the mood quickly dissipates and the youthful spirit returns just as quickly as it left.

So, here's my take:

Communication about EVERYTHING is key! Anyone who can keep up their side of the conversation and speak somewhat intelligently about a myriad of subjects is like an aphrodisiac!

Stimulate their brain and they're hooked!

Unlike a lot of other astrological signs, Gemini men won't generally keep their feelings to themselves. However, the flip side of this is that they can believe themselves to be in love very quickly. In other words, its not that they're not - its simply what they're feeling at that moment!

Charming, witty, articulate and can play devil's advocate like nobody's business! They're marvelous at seeing things from another's perspective and are generally open-minded. Flip side? That wit can be razor sharp and they wield it like a toy! If they're not angry, they simply mean to amuse (even though a lot of feelings get hurt) and if they are angry, prepare to be shredded verbally!

They also tend to have "Peter Pan" tendencies which keeps them young at heart. However, this can also manifest itself as immaturity (not worrying about finances, procrastination, etc.) This characteristic may also lend itself to always "looking to see what's around the corner.") It's not that they're cheaters - but rather, that they are easily intrigued by most everyone they meet.

However, if they're in love they might look but will seldom touch or stray. Other people may capture their attention but they'll learn everything about them (as if it were a subject matter) and then when satiated, their focus shifts to the next "interesting" thing.

Either their bodies (as was the case with my Gemini man) or their minds are in constant motion! They live inside their heads A LOT! So, they can be high-energy, fast-talking currents of energy and can juggle several things at the same time while maintaining that speed!

Therefore, their focus MAY not always be on you and it may feel like you're not a priority. It's not intentional - its just that they usually have SO much going on.

I actually have a question myself, regarding the impatience. Every now and then he'll be having trouble with something on his computer and he's getting mad - and he keeps interrupting me when I'm working (I work from home). I find it very annoying and I've asked him not to interrupt me - I don't mind helping, but it's just that it's happening all the time lately and he doesn't seem to care that he's interrupting me from my job. There isn't another room I can work in - so all I'm asking is for him to respect my mental space while I'm "at work". But he can't seem to understand that I have a responsibility/obligation to my employers, and he can't seem to respond in any other way that his immediate needs are more important and they can't wait until I've finished work. This obviously seems like a Gem/Aries thing, but since talking and reasoning with him about it has failed - now what? (Apart from tearing my hair out in frustration???).

Pleeease note that I'm a helpful person and I don't mind helping him with something if it's going to take only a few minutes. Also I've tried putting on headphones and listening to music while I work, so that it's obvious to him that I can't hear him. That seems to work quite well. But yeah, any other suggestions from the Gemini/Aries men here? I really do feel bad that I have to put my responsibilities first but that's the way it is. Some of my job I can do while I talk, but other parts of it I really need to concentrate on. I'm the highest income earner in this relationship, so I do need to make sure I keep my job!

Both my laptop and desktop are suppose to be pretty good in comparison, a quad core desktop with 4GB of ram and Dell Precision M90 for graphic design work. Of course a mac is the best for graphics.

But it drives me nuts that both aren't runing as smoothly as "advertised".

Before I got my quad core desktop, I use to kick my old P4 in frustration. I once kicked it over while a CD was spining in the hard drive, I could have gotten a hard drive crash.

Now onto Mr. Gemini, well i'm glad that he bugs you instead of someone else you must be like "gold" to him and that he thinks your technical enought to solve his PC problems.

Its simple, he just doesn't want to put up with the time to deal with it and just have some one else fix it instead of him fixing it.

So he wants it fix now but he doesn't want to deal with it.

Tell me if this sounds somewhat similar,

This morning when I was printing a report.....It was 7:20 and I'm normaly out at 7:30.. so i was rushing to get out before class starts at 8am.. then I relized its out of ink..so I cussed and sweared at my dad because he prints the most...."why the hell did you use all the ink. Then he says its okay I have another cartridge.

But its hard to keep your temper even with an aries moon, i have to if i continue to plan to be a software developer or Software Programer. I think i'm technial and logical minded, but my patience has to be improved. LoL

I find that on somedays when things aren't going right, but people are nice to me and I'm a little bit drowsy, but not tired enought to go to sleep yet, i'm too tired too yell and raise my temper.

I use to drink sleeping pills, but they weren't strong enought to put me to bed, but strong enought to make me tipsy, i just felt everything went slow and didn't feel like yelling.

or If that doesn't help maybe you should keep him busy and less to do with the PC that way he doesn't get bored..

or get the computer fixed might just need more memory/ram. I'm thinking of upgrading my laptop with more memory, it will cost around $200, but a lot cheaper if i order from tigerdirect.... if it makes things go faster, i'm happy..

Hopefully you also don't have vista...installed. Not a fan of Vista, lol.

EXACTLY! lol I can't believe you hit the nail on the head, that's amazing! He said pretty much exactly that. He's mentioned it a few times that he's lucky to have me here to help him because I know stuff. I've explained to him that I only have a general knowledge of how computer stuff works, and when I help him I'm actually just working intuitively, using problem solving and making educated guesses. So I'm not really an expert, just someone who's played around with software every now and then.

So yeah on one hand it's good that he thinks highly of me, but he does get a bit demanding about it. And then, my progressed Mars in Aries all of a sudden loses patience. I should practice my Taurean patience more, perhaps, so there aren't two impatient people in the room.

This is the first thread I am reading but yet to read it in more depth.

I am new with probably the longest user name ( I just don't like to play games ), but once you/I get the hang of it, I hope we'll be fine with it.

Glad to have found this site again, as I used to be a member years ago and wasn't much into astrology for a while, but there you go . . .!

I hope to submit a real post soon.
