So... despite all warnings at how this guy never stays with anyone for barely more than a night before he gets bored... it's now been over a year for us! What's going on?! He even talks long term into the future now... is this the 8th wonder of the world?!

There seems to be a big misconception with Gems and relationships. I’ve seen many in long term relationships.

I think it’s just their needs are very different from everyone else, but once they’re met the twins are hunky-dory

Gemini Lover.....Good for you girl ....I am happy. I read your previous posts

But to be honest ...I still get confused by them too. There is this one guy who was in relationship for 7 years,then broke up and then got married to same girl again.
I have another Gem girl who still misses her Libra bf.

I guess Gem with Taurus influence has got something to do with it.

I was with a Gemini sun / Scorpio moon for almost 7 years.

I was the one that had to ask for a day off.

He was (and still is) one of the best guys I've known.

The funny thing is that he can really confuse me sometimes with his constant changes of opinion, but as time goes on I've gotten less 'confused' and more able to adapt and enjoy the ride (at times it hasn't been easy for us to understand each other, but we always get there)... other than that, no one can believe the fact that he has chosen to stick around - I've even had a couple of women congratulate me and shake my hand!

He even the other day, lightheartedly slipped a toy ring onto my finger... I wonder if these means he's 'toying' with idea of marriage? Then again he could change his mind about that again tomorrow.

All geminis are different. I think like WN said, just like anyone else, when their needs are met then they're there for the long-haul.

This is one of the biggest reasons, that I have never been able to relate to my Sun sign... My husband and I will celebrate 14 years this December..and, I've yet to become bored. He's also the only partner I've had... imagine THAT!! My Sun is the only Gemini influence, of my chart, besides my 8th house cusp. I would agree, it is partly the Taurian influence found therein but, moreso, the experience itself, of us..

Wow, geminstone - that's wonderful, congrats on finding such an amazing union! Strangely enough, while there's parts of my own sun sign that I can relate to - ie the part that loves all things sensual and beautiful, the determination and even the jealousy - there's a lot I can't relate to either, like the absolute dogged fixed-ness that we are supposed to have... perhaps my Sag ascendent gives me more adaptability and a more of a very real need for change than I would otherwise have.

GLLF, his other planets make him one heck of an independent creature... lol! Sun in Gemini, Aries ascendant and moon, Venus in Gemini (like me) and Mars in Aquarius. But yet he always wants to be with me and gets all moochy if we can't do something together. We're both quite strong-willed and bossy (my Taurus sun with Jupiter in Aries makes sure of that) and to be quite honest, I'm used to being 'the boss' in a relationship - so it's been a learning experience for both of us to learn how to compromise, give and take, and to let our differences complement rather than clash with each other. So now, there are times when I don't mind if he takes the lead, and other times he knows he needs my expertise or skills at something and that's when I am the boss! lol

Something I just thought of. I think my Taurus sun with Sag ascendent is the perfect complement for this particularly changeable man... I'm fixed enough to weather the changes, yet flexible to bend and adapt with them at the same time. Like a reed bending with the wind, but with rock-solid roots to keep me in place. (As opposed to others I know of with less 'firm' roots to the ground who got so agitated they uprooted themselves and blew away in the stormy winds of change... lol!). The only thing that really causes trouble is my emotional Scorpio moon - if I'm tired then I'll get mood swings that match his changeability... but luckily because he's not the 'too emotional' type, he's able to cope with me when I get like that.

Can anyone help me with this:

* We both have Chiron in Aries.
* He has Juno in Cancer (3rd house with Pars Fortuna also there in Cancer and his Gemini sun).
* I have Juno in Taurus (6th house, where I also have Venus in Gemini, Pars Fortuna in Gemini and Vertex in Taurus).

Any thoughts? Challenges for the future I should be aware of? Having Juno in Taurus sounds to me like I won't get married to this guy...

My recommendation is to not predict the future, just take it as it comes, that's adapting.

As a Taurus with Sag rising myself and Cancer Moon, I can say Geminis are good with someone who is the "best friend" not so much the lover type. Once you get to that idea, it's easy to see the patterns and then the loyalty.

Sag and Gemini men are very similar they like communication and a partner who is a bit bossy.

You do have to drive the train, compromise is fine but Gemini men like the woman to lead to a rosy future,

ugghh...we have gender bias..racial issues. I guess the stereotyping doesn't stop at the zodiac. Now we have generalizations about signs.

each sign is equally as capable of long term as they are of one night stands...sorry to break it to you. I have never liked people who for some reason have vendettas against certian signs (not saying you do). or even people who think "oh, He is a ________, he must be ________" pssssshh

Well, people usually have these "vendettas" because of bad experiences, not because of what they read.

Sorry if it came across as a generalisation, it wasn't meant to be that way. It's just that a few women's experience with him have fit the 'negative' side of Gemini to a "T". And most of his behaviours are very much (sometimes an extreme version) of the usually-described Gemini traits. I have no prejudice against Gemini (in fact I absolutely love Gemini's - hence my screen name! ), or any other sign...my post topic title was also meant to be light-hearted. We're all individuals with our own little quirks ... I personally hate it when people say "oh she's a Taurus, she must be lazy and stubborn and boring"!

And yeah you are right, taking things as they come is my usual approach - I just get sooo curious when I think there's a chance to glimpse the future!

everyone makes generalizations when it comes to astrology...

all the time
with practically everything.

I don't see what the big deal is?

Come to think of it, aren't most of these threads generalisations? Eg, 'advice about Capricorns', 'are Pisces and Leo good together?' etc... Even if these things are general, I find them to be an accurate guideline to people's behaviour and psychologies. And then I add the more individualised traits into the mix (as represented by planets and houses etc).

GL - With your Saggie asc., wouldn't that put his sun and maybe Venus in your 7th house? That's significant, if so.

Also, is his moon in the 1st house? That would make him simular to a Cancer rising, and Cancer (the Moon) does favor emotional security.

Astro generalizations can get on ones nerves, if they get the same thing all the time. It seems whenever I have a spat here with someone, they throw the fact that I'm a Leo in my face, in a derogatory way. Like, none of my points matter, because I just think I'm better than everyone else and/or I just want attention. I hate that.

If one then decides to 'not like' another, due to generalizations of one sort or another,.... is that not, in itself, kind-of a stereotyping? Not trying to start yet another string of nit-picking but, ...? Pick up any astrology book or find any site with interpretations.... generalized. GeminiLover is, most likely, applying some info that was obtained in such a way, besides, she is'nt just slapping it on her partner, she's adding it to what info she actually has, regarding his personal history... Sounds to me like she is smart enough to also know, that everyone has it within them to change. This is only a way to learn... some people do have similar experiences and, as is the case in this string, a whole lot of us Gemini's have given another way to then look upon us.... generally speaking.

Yes, I'm talking about him personally and how he fits what I "know" about his sign... he himself knows how much of a 'Gemini' he is because he constantly refers to it in conversation!

Lioneye68, you're right - his sun and Venus are in my 7th house. My own Venus is also in Gemini in the 7th house. What does all this mean exactly? (I figured that may be the reason why our first date and the initial dating period that followed was so heavily flirtatious - we fell headfirst into each other's liking for, and ease with, this style of relating to each other).

Also, like me, his moon is in the 12th house - he has Aries in the 12th and the 1st. So no Cancerian-type goings-on in that department that I know of, although I did read that somewhere about some other aspect of his chart. A friend of his did mention to me a couple of months ago, that he likes the security of this relationship - so it's in there somewhere. He's also commented admiringly about my "groundedness" many times, and I think this may be what makes him feel secure - I supply the stability that he lacks on his own. (And before anyone says I'm generalising about Gemini, when I say that I'm actually commenting on something he is personally renowned for by his friends and family).

He has Libra in the 7th house...

How this whole relationship works astrologically has (obviously) gotten me fascinated. Learning about it helps me to learn more about astrology in general, so I can learn about other people too.

GL, how close to his asc is his moon?

Planets in the 1st house have a major influence on the asc, to the point that planetary energies override the actual sign placement.

My Virgo has moon & merc. conjunct his asc, in Leo no less - but he does not seem like a Leo asc. at all. More like a Cancer/Virgo. More Cancer than Virgo, though.
