1/ What is the Node and how important is it? Is it as defining as your Sun sign?

2/I'm a Gemini and although I don't stand for nonsense, I'm so sensitive to other people and let them affect me too much. Why's that? I didn't know Geminis were supposed to be sensitive. (Although it could just be that I personally have a big complex.)

3/ Does anyone else think so much that they lose sleep because they can't clear their mind and relax? How do I meditate when I have difficulty concentrating on one thing at a time?

4/ I am very intolerant and bad tempered, and I always feel as though when things go wrong for me it's done to me on purpose. Why is that? Sometimes I boil over with anger and I want to let loose by destroying things. I usually curb this with a lot of bad language.

5/ I have just began reading Star Signs and I was very interested to read about my suitable careers (I'm Gemini)and how I can't cope in certain employment. I'm unemployed but I stay at home with my 3 year old daughter. Currently I am at my wit's end with her, and she feels like an affliction. I love her, but I feel very resentful. Does anyone have any advice? How do I be patient and not lose my temper when she constantly makes mess and destroys things and disobeys me? I'm also resentful because I have no peaceful time, and I want to do so many things and achieve my goals.

6/ How do I find out what my major aspects mean? I have Sun Conjunction Mercury, is that anything of importance?

I know what you mean. I am like that also. What is your moon and rising?

1. Don't know

2. Yes geminis are sensitive, but I think we are also hipocrits - sometimes we don't think others are sensitive or as sensitive as us, but they are. I guess everyone has weak spots, and when pushed can cause sensitivity. With geminis, I think there are many weak spots. For example, most of the time we are positive and loving, but when it is not reciprocated which can be often, we could feel it's a direct insult or something. My trick is to remove myself from humanity, so even though I don't get the positives, at least I don't get the negatives. I love my small world. Geminis are also very complex - having mood swings without cause and therefore we could be unduly sensitive without knowing it until after the event. I feel geminis live more in the past than other people - in retrospect. The present goes too fast for us to realise what we are feeling.

3. When I get like that, I use an old trick - start tensing your toes, then ankels, etc, until you tense your eyebrows. Then go back to your toes. Within three goes you'll be asleep. The physical reason is due to exercise, while the esoteric is due to "releasing your astral self". Ie. sending you off to dream land. I think eventually, you don't need to tense - just the visualisation os colour moving up, and then down your body and make you fall asleep. Like a cat scan.

4. Anger is something else. I believe it could be born out of watching other people or the world, or through impatience. It is selfish in my opinion - thinking you are the most important thing in the universe and that everyone else should feel your wrath. Try learning yoga or meditation. I know it's easy to say it might work, but I think it honestly helps slow your heart beat etc. Also, maybe try working out and using the energy in other areas. I can get angry, but I wait it out. Patience is extremely important.

5. I'd strongly suggest Child Care. They could take her off your hands for a couple of days a week, which will allow you time, and give her things to do. Otherwise, maybe try to give her as much attention as possible in order to ware her out or make her feel happy that you're with her. I think children really want attention a lot, and there's nothing you can really do but give it. Hopefully they will leave you alone occasionally

6. www.astro.com or the astro forum here.

Best of luck with everything. Not being in your situation, I feel I'm not exactly the best person to ask, but these are just some of my thoughts.

Thanks for answering my questions, yes I feel I always act too quickly and regret it later.

I just hate when people point my mistakes out to me. I'd rather learn them for myself.

Anger is not a good thing

I am arranging child care for my daughter, but everywhere is full. I should have planned ahead, and put her on the waiting list.
