What are their emotional needs/wants?
I think they need to communicate a lot, but what else?

Thanks for any input.

their basic principle are "What is new?". They tend to love daylight a lot. They must learn to "decide and stick with that decisions" and "emotional commitment". If they dont have many water signs "emotional commitment" part gets stronger. They are really hard to find while sitting on their sofas comfartablely by doing nothing. They tend to work on something a lot. Due to being constructive, they uselessly create nuisance for themselves. Sometimes they have an urge to create arguments and defend opposite side..They tend to say everything they have been thinking. They are intellectually curious people and they have lively mind. They generally communicate well. They analyze their feelings a lot. Septisim may be seen on them. They love opinion exchanges a lot.

She has always been a hard worker. I look up to her for that. Yes she is intelligent. She is a law student right now.

I don't see her as much as I use to, but we go out to the bar every so often, or chill at her house or my sister's.

She is very passionate. Wich is probably why my Scorpio Moon gets along with her, and I have a Gemini Rising. Plus we have alot of the same beleifs and she tells it like it is.

I don't think I know any guys or any other who have the Moon here...
It's the Aqua Moon guys that tend to get on my nerves. haha Because they show interest in me...but I don't feel the deeper connection of romance and I just feel like they are trying to 'use me'...I just don't feel real passion on that level. But that is just me. I think I have a cousin that has Aqua Moon, and she cracks me up! Sh!t she cracks everybody up!

It's strange because I have a Capricorn Moon which should be very different... But I actually get along extremely well with them! Usually their Suns are in a positive aspect to my own (so that could be why).

BOOKS! Everything they need and want is analysed based on their favourite books/novels. They are interested in all sorts of things.. They read psychological books, self-help books and spiritual/astrology etc. books.
These people read like no one you have ever met before. They have a huge library at home and they often end up borrowing as much as they buy... Two of the Gemini Moon people I know have incurred huge library fees throughout the years... because it's so difficult for them to *return* the books. I think they are book-oholic lol

They have such an emotional connection to their books - that if you move or shift one around on a shelf... they will go into a frenzy and yell at you about it LOL

They feel more of a connection to writers.. than they do to people in interpersonal situations.

If you want to really get to the core of their heart - write them long, and witty, emails (express how much you care in writing). Do not express it face2face (at least not in the initial stages) as this can make them feel awkward.. They would much prefer a nice letter.

They need someone who is extremely calm... because they can get jumpy easily. They are very high-strung and have much Mercurial nervousness about them.
They need someone to just bring them back down to earth - sometimes.

Not necessarily. It also depends on their Mercury placement.
I know different Gemini Moons who behave slightly differently. They might not be this communicative verbally... but they always love writing and reading.

They like discussing their areas of interest/expertise with someone they see as intelligent, who can give them ideas and appreciate their intellectual work.
This means as much to them emotionally as a romantic candlelit dinner might mean to an earthy moon.

So true! I carry books around with me all the time, and the library fees (really!) are pretty bad at times. I do complain when someone moves my pile of books from the area in which I left them, loses my place, etc.

When I was younger, I hit it off with people easily in person. Now, it's easier for me to do that through writing.

I love to learn new things, and a book would be one perfect gift for me - something I'd like to read, or that would help me to understand the person gifting it.

Hmm... All in all it's manageable, but the fact that mercury sits in a sign which is more impulsive than rational, there's that contradiction again. My mind feels like my heart and my heart feels like my mind. I know you could say that's the mercury opposing moon, but I strongly suspect that if the signs were reversed, my mind would feel like my mind again, but would just be in constant conflict with my heart.

So yeah, it's difficult enough.

I would describe Gemini moons as emotionally childlike. Emotions are raw and powerful, but being childlike they don't know how to deal with them. This is part of the reason why I feel Gemini moons don't stay depressed for very long because they're always changing and moving on to the next emotion.

As all children grow up they learn how to deal with their emotions, this isn't as easy for Gemini moons who therefore tend to keep them to themselves instead of displaying them publically. This introversion of emotions is mistaken as emotional detachment and coldness. If you get to witness a Gemini moon actually expressing emotion I think you may be surprised at the sincerity behind the emotion.

Gemini moons I would describe as being insatiably curious. If anything can catch their interest to a large enough degree, they want to learn about it. This may also stem from an inherently sceptic nature. Questioning of information or knowledge if they don't feel it is 100% correct they will want to question it because they're curious.

I would say that Gemini moons love to talk and chat to people. Being curious to a fault they love to meet new people and immerse themselves in new experiences. As for the polemical side, whilst Gemini moons can be argumentative and hold the opposite side, this may be strengthened by other factors but they are just trying to get the most out of the discussion. Most such debates are therefore impersonal for Gemini moons.

It can therefore be difficult for a Gemini moon to have a good discussion as the majority of people get upset. Gemini moons tend to be extremely open minded and thus concerned with the discussion. The majority of other signs may focus more on defending their side of the argument and getting upset instead of actually listening to whats being said. A Gemini moon isn't trying to get you to change your mind, they're only trying to get you to think. I feel that is one of their primary objectives in life, to get people to think and communicate.

The changing of wants is a facet of the Gemini duality and nature, always interested in something new and fascinating. Stereotypically I would think a Gemini moon, or indeed other heavily Gemini influenced, person's favourite word would be, 'Why?'

For comments on their obsession with books, I would substitute the word information for books. Books may be the most convenient method of obtaining knowledge and information but with the internet and a plethora of other resources, no repositry of information is safe from the inquisition.

I would disagree in part with Gemini moons feeling a greater connection to writers than to people in interpersonal situations. Gemini moons have a boundless active imagination. Thus stimulation through, books, films, tv, music or the like is likely to spark that imagination. This may lead to small degrees of psychosis. I think this is also easier to deal with because this is all done internally naturally.
However, I don't feel that Gemini moons are disconnected interpersonally. I think this is misinterpretted from their inability to handle the rawness of their own emotions and thus their internalisation and the interpretation of others of their disconnectedness. Internalising emotions when you're own your own is seen as fine but the difficulty a Gemini moon has with externalizing their emotions lends to the impression of emotional disconnectivity.

I agree with Teasel whilst Gemini moons may have trouble dealing with their own and others emotions. I feel that just showing them that there is nothing wrong with feeling openly and honestly is the best way to connect with them and open their emotional nature. Gemini moons, given any chance will hide behind words, humour and witticism for this very reason, because for them, it's easier to be light hearted than openly show such emotions that they struggle with.

This I would mostly agree with, Gemini moons need to be talked to, need to, to feel emotionally fulfilled.

I feel Gemini moons are prone to hypersensitivity which only contributes to the raw childlike nature of emotions. I feel that if people could actually glimpse an externalized Gemini moon emotion they would be deeply surprised. I'll mention it again, if you truly want to get a Gemini moon to express emotion, just softly, gently and comfortably expressing that it is 100% ok to do so and that you are ok with it.

I think the best way to measure the, 'happiness' of a Gemini moon is to take note of their level of involvement and participation in conversations. If they are talking away, being verbose and sociable they are for the most part happy. If they are being quiet, and you will know they are being quiet if you know them well enough. They are most likely dealing with some emotional issue. This is a huge indication of the rawness of a Gemini moon's emotional nature, that they shutdown to deal with it.

Gemini moon's tend to posess a good sense of humour and wit, which goes hand in hand with their lighthearted nature. With an expansive imagination, their humour can be extremely creative, far fetched and ridiculous. With a large interest in the written word and ideas, trends and other issues in society and in life generally, satirical humour is often present as well. There may also be some tendency for black humour as the juxedaposition of morbid and farcical or comedic ideas serves to lighten the mood.

Doux Reve -

If you want to make a Gemini moon tick in a bad way, try and force their emotions, subject them to heavy displays of emotion either through film or books or in person, theatre or friends and family etc.

In a good way; just talk and discuss anything with them, ideas, thoughts, anything at all will almost certainly catch their interest.

Emotional Needs/wants; to be talked to a lot, to be listened to and talked with endlessly. To seek out and experience new things, to learn and to teach. To be accepted, to not feel any more alienated or ostracized for their difficulty in dealing with emotions than they already are.

Doux Rêve -

The friction between Virgo - Gemini Moon is mutual. I find Virgo Moons very difficult to cope with. The square cannot help much. The interesting part though is that my sun although, just barely, is in Virgo. So you'd think it would be a good match, but so far it really isn't.

I cannot comment for all Gemini moons, because there are so many of them but this is what I feel and think about the subject.
