Do you read? You're ridiculous. Sounds like you should join them because you're just as bad. No, actually I'm not even joking. You're a s**t starter. Right here, how you're talking to me. Take a look in the mirror bud. You're just trying to toy with me thinking that I'm so upset and want to push it further. The only thing that upsets me at all is that you'd disrespect me by thinking I'm too stupid to see through your BS. So I'm moving on. I don't play mind games.

I posted looking for ways to handle the situation and people came and chimed in on what could be happening. Aside from being bored, I think that both the Gem and cancers felt threatened from the younger employees. That isn't limited to those two signs though, as I mentioned earlier as well. Anybody, any sign can relate: no one wants to take time out of their busy day to deal with adults who aren't acting like adults but more like jealous, gossipy teenagers. Plain and simple. For those that said you only gossip when you've been hurt and have the info to spread that around, is that necessary and does that make you better than them? Probably not. But whatever works for you, go for it. I'm speaking on the workplace, mine specifically, and any work place is better off without people who gossip and spread rumors behind someone's back. If that's a Gemini trait and you don't like getting called out on it, cut it out then.
I only care to drag them down on level they draged me,i do not messure my worth by how many hits i can take while pretending to be a forgiving angel. People have made things up about me,because i trully dont have juicy things they could gossip about,i on other hand only tell their realiity,and yes by that logic,i am way better,because atleast i am not liar,but not that that matters here. I dont know why are you so ..whats the proper word,outraged,by people who gossip as countra messure? Its not that big deal for humanity,i am aure even you gossip,because everyone does it.

He didn't seem butthurt to me. I was, a knee-jerk reaction. I put my butthurt flag away as I read the thread, and because it's so freaking meaningless compared to my life right now. I don't give a **** if anyone thinks I'm butthurt. I have been for several years now, about several things. It's just numbed at the moment. I know what it's like to be gossiped about, and it sucks. It isn't a sign thing, but a lot of things aren't, in my opinion. we all have issues. IP: Logged |

Agreeing with this. You (as in OP) won't find much in the Astro of this situation anyway if you look at their placements with this extreme bias. IP: Logged |

LBC, Ehm.. That's over-simplifying it. Gemini is a chatty energy, for better or worse. The way people bond is very much tied to their interests and bent of mind. If someone likes to chit-chat, they'll bond through small talk. If someone likes art, they'll make friends at the local gallery. (That's also over-simplifying, but you get the picture). I'm also somewhat of a mercury person. Not fully, but enough that I can take a stab at deconstructing this for you - this 'talking about people' is, at it's essence, and exchange of information/tid-bits. Like "Hey, look what I noticed..do you see it too? What do you think about it?" Just throwing out a string into the world, and seeing if someone tugs at the other end. If they do, bingo...they're 'your type'. Not sure I explained it well, but that's the gist. It's an ice-breaker, a conversation-starter, it's a device to get to know someone else's thoughts while sharing your own on innocuous topics. --> The key word here is "innocuous". They don't really dwell on it enough to be malicious or anything. Being sassy = being snippy = being "mean". You can't have the mercurial wit without a bit of sharpness. Intentional or not.. OP, Not commenting on your workplace problem here ^, just speaking in general. IP: Logged |

I'm have Gemini Sun conj Jupiter and also a Mercury in Gemini and I don't like gossip. I'll say it in peoples' faces and I think loud so...Some Neptune aspects or 12th house action could be involved for those Gems. I have also a Scorpio Moon and it gives me no gossiping tendencies. If I dislike someone at work I just need to stare and they'll back of from my desk like it had an electrical fence around it. I'm fairly new and not even my superiors mess with me. Off course that might be due to my gemini ability to multitask and solve what others don't bother to look into. I feel the urge to be mean to people who are just incompetent and ignorant. Merit on others doesn't bother me...it gives me hope that the human race isn't totally lost. So that's my comment on geminis in the workplace. IP: Logged |

I agree with Elysia and some others. It's a matter of energy. The way different people communicate, and the shadow aspect of it. I can testify gossiping is not necessarily a Gemini thing. I am cancerian with moon-mars in Gemini and I don't gossip, but I know people who do and aren't Gemini... but I guess Geminis will tend to be more talkative, for better or for worse. I wonder about the harsh aspect between the moon and mercury someone mentioned (sorry for not quoting). I think that even if someone has that kind of aspect, it won't necessarily make him or her a rumor-spreader... There is free will, you know. The planets don't force us to act a certain way. They merely suggest, and their suggestion is wide enough.IP: Logged |

I'll be up front and say that it's probably a misunderstanding between you and I here but not of enough importance that I feel like going into detail about what I mean. So if me saying, "there must be a misunderstanding" is not good enough then oh well I guess. We'll all get over it. I can imagine your gif and my reply would be, "why the eff is this upsetting?" Even if someone, op or myself are generalizing and being negative about a sign, who cares? What does it mean to anyone in the end? Means nothing to me, I'll tell you that. All kinds of people don't like my moon, or don't like my sun, or don't like this or that. So? Doesn't mean s**t to me. I'll prove them wrong or right. It'll never effect the direction of my life, my attitude, or my personality unless I want it to. Geez... One harmless post and people are getting twisted. Eta: The people that I was talking about, which is the people in the OP. Maybe they ARE malicious in nature. I hate being railroaded because someone misunderstood me and I'm not explaining. If you took it wrong the first time and treat me like that, there's no clarifying. Why bother? I know what your attitude is already.

@DopGang:
Whether or not you care to make yourself clear means nothing to me but I will d@mn sure make MYSELF perfectly clear right now. Apparently this topic has somehow traveled to the depths of people's souls making them feel angry, or guilty, or offended, or sad, or, or, and or. News flash. NONE OF THAT APPLIES TO ME. Everyone feels all these things but I don't feel ANY such thing at all. Period. So don't project your sensitivity onto me. I found OP's concern interesting and approached it in the same manner as someone approaching a math problem, and no sensible person approaches an equation with bias, anger, guilt, offense, or any other irrelevant personal feeling that would cloud judgement. Upon scrolling down I saw your post and approached it in the same way (b/c I am free to do so). I don't care what you meant to write, I replied to what you ACTUALLY wrote, which simply MADE NO SENSE. Period. I don't care if you or anyone else is upset about it either. Only malicious people bond in malicious acts just as only selfish people could ever find comfort in being selfish. If you feel what you wrote did not efficiently express your thoughts (however nonsensical they most likely may be) then suck it up and clarify. If, however, you are truly content with your senseless statement (that even you admit is not adequate enough to support anything of a sagacious nature without at least some attempt at clarification) then shut your pie hole about "misunderstandings" when people reply to it. And tbh, I only entertained the idea that you even meant anything else for the sake of showing you how ridiculous you sound. In reality, you obviously meant exactly what you wrote but felt silly upon realizing just how ludicrous it was. Perhaps it was "political-correctness" backfiring or maybe you really do believe your statement actually made sense but none of that even matters. As I said earlier, you were simply in your feelings about this topic for whatever reason and projected that onto what I wrote, b/c I was not the slightest bit upset (amused and confused sure but not upset). Oh and you're darn skippy I'm going to mention my Gemini placements (and will continue to do so as much as I want). Why? Because SOMEBODY has to remind others that there is no need to be offended or develop bias just b/c a topic is about an energy you possess. For example, Gemini is noted to be two-faced / chatty since the beginning of time and guess what? Sometimes our need to view things through every different colored lens manifests as exactly that (whether intentional or not). Other times our versatility and breadth of thought makes us d@mn near geniuses. It is what it is and I'm ok with it. My Gem Moon/Mars is the very reason I was able to be so relaxed and unbiased towards OP's situation to begin (no angry feelings, offense, or anything else). So if your self projection is bouncing off of me that strongly then by all means you are free to believe I was oh so angry if you want to. However, it just makes you look........ ridiculous.

quote: 7/28/16 — We continue to cling to the status quo while the Moon is finishing up her business in unflappable Taurus. However, Luna's tense aspects to Mercury and Mars begin to agitate our emotions, especially where we feel stuck. This loosening process starts to quicken once the Moon shifts into changeable Gemini at 2:16 pm EDT. Meanwhile, the Leo Sun moves toward a stressful alignment with larger-than-life Jupiter, blowing trivial matters out of proportion.

@LBCYou are the definition of pretentious. Can you understand that or do you need clarification? You have a strong verbal communication but you LACK an ability to intuitively know the message given. With mercury in 12th and Neptune in 3rd, I communicate with more than words. Whereas, even if my words were off, another who responded to you who I'm also fond of, obviously did understand my message and offered clarification to you. We (you and I) communicate on different levels. You criticize mine, I can criticize yours. There's a certain part of you that is blind. There's no need to pretend that you're not upset, dear. Not with the insults hurled at me in your post. Are we done?

Faith is here to save the day!I think the best thing to do is forget about the bs going on in this thread and call it a day. It can be ridiculously easy to get caught up in this kind of crap but is it really worth it? There have been so many instances of when a sign was stereotyped in a negative light, and Gemini may be a case where it is much more prominent, but that's not a valid enough reason to just argue. I haven't been paying attention to what's been going on in this thread and I suggest that everyone else can start doing the same so that we can avoid this crap. ------------------ Aquarius Sun, Merc, Venus, Uranus, Neptune Scorpio Mars conj.

Anyone reading this, I advise you to go and read my response to him. I clearly said I was not upset when I wrote my original response to him (not this one). He stated that it is possible to bond in committing malicious acts without being malicious and I said that made no sense (but I was in no way angry when saying so). He is the one who was angry that I said his statement didn't make sense. He was the one who decided to be incredibly rude / immature. The response matched the intellectual assault inflicted upon sensibility the world over. IP: Logged |

Yes, you're right. While the entertainment value (childish finger pointing post above mine) grows, the shame of participation also grows. That goes for all of us involved in it. I'll admit my shame and maybe we can move on. IP: Logged |

LOL....this is what I leave and come back to? Anyway are my strong verbal communication skills responsible for why you have to update / change your responses constantly? Hard to keep up? Do not discredit me based on a "lack" of anything. It is useless separating my verbal communication skills (Gem Mars) from my intuition (Scorp.Asc / Pluto in 12th) and my ability to communicate without words (Merc conj. Neptune / Uranus) b/c they all support each other. The skills you think I lack are actually the very reason I have strong verbal skills in the first place. So stop assuming things. No I am not like any other person who responded to you and I am not meant to be (and don't want to be). It is not my job to read between the lines when the person who wrote those lines doesn't even care enough to elaborate on such himself. You only see my response as criticism when it is also clearly an opportunity for you to evaluate your own ideas / thoughts thoroughly enough to present them efficiently. Yet your ego and arrogance makes you incapable. So who is really being blind here? I am "criticized" all the time and honestly it makes my mental abilities stronger (what's the point in making declarations or statements you are unable to support?). There is no need to get angry and say rude things like what you said to me. So if you refuse to admit you were wrong then such is life, but I won't tolerate any such thing from anyone as acceptable. EVER. Oh and "childish finger pointing"? Ha! That would imply I think anyone has authority of some sort. No. I am the authority on what I know and i know that you made no sense, I don't need validation on it from anyone  @Faith + @ElectroDGX: I have never responded sternly/offensively to ANYONE on here without them first showing a disregard for basic respect. If it were either of you he responded to so rudely would you still see it as "overreacting"? Would you still chalk up your desire to express discontent to the alignment of the planets negatively affecting events? How do you know that the moon being in my native lunar sign did not serve to make me more respectful of myself (when my usual tendency is to be somewhat passive)? Someone being reasonably offended by a rude response may be "BS" or "crap" to some but I NEVER see respectfully standing up for yourself as the entertainment of BS or Crap. Mind you I did not just aimlessly hurl profanities and insults (which would be "BS"). I made valid points and intelligently supported my statements based on logic. I was as respectful as one could be to someone who decided I did not deserve any. So if that makes me perceived as a perpetuator of "BS" and "crap" to some then C'est la vie. I haven't given you or anyone else any reason to believe I am a warmonger or infatuated with "BS" so do not unjustly apply that to me b/c I will not wear it. Sorry not sorry. My Ascendant is in Scorpio and it is VERY strong in my chart. I am in no way afraid of having unpopular opinions or not being liked just b/c I am not spineless and politically correct about everything like most people. That is a pathetic way to live. DopGang thinking people can bond in doing malicious actions without being of a malicious nature STILL DOES NOT MAKE SENSE and anyone acting as though I am wrong for pointing it out and standing by it in this situation is not worthy of communication anyhow. Stultorum infinitus est numerus . I can never feel bad for NOT being delusional / unintelligent. I rebuke stupidity and to ANYONE who doesn't like it..... Such a lovely visual manifestation of what this post I just wrote singlehandedly does to any and all the invalids having the audacity to form negative opinions regarding my excellence. With that, I can now leave this particular road-bump in OP's otherwise interesting thread.

I agree with Faith re: current astrological happenings and how it may be affecting this thread.I also think Jupiter in Virgo is playing a role in this, especially when I think about similar threads that have ended up like this while Jupiter has been in Virgo. Something about the nature of Jupiter and the nature of Virgo makes it hard to deal with. I say this because I've wanted to respond in similar ways and actually HAVE in a few threads on here. I sympathize with that feeling. Hopefully everybody can find a way to let this go and find some peace. Life is too short to be arguing with a stranger over the Internet.  IP: Logged |

Perhaps Jupiter is emphasizing Virgo's tendency to be insecure and have a negative viewpoint on things, which can be easily demonstrated by the issues in this thread, which I think are really stupid.

LBC I'm done arguing. (Or whatever term that you think fits) It's kind of pointless, and endless, don't you think? What is there to gain? Is there a "victory" here? Is there an "accomplishment" that either of us can look back on and be proud of? Is there a real purpose, other than pride, perhaps? I see no victory no matter what happens. I see no accomplishment possible that one should feel proud of when reflecting back on this thread. I don't see anything here that anyone has to gain. Not from continuing down the same path. What degree is your sun? I'm asking for neutral, synastry reasons. Sag is a hit or miss and bad there, little in between, and usually the bad takes precedence. I can think of one, (sag sun) a member here, that I get along well with. Her and I have moon conjunct Venus though. ETA: Throw in your mars and moon also please. I have most of Virgo covered so there's bound to be some "ouchy" squares.  IP: Logged |

Jupiter, brings expansion and optimism, to simply state it's good qualities. It's also trine my asc, mars, and mercury. Big ideas, big actions, etc. On the downside, reckless behavior, lack of respect for authority, feelings of invincibility, etc. It seems to bring good things, or an abundance of them until it's "too much". It's my strongest planet after mercury. I kind of feel like this is an insult to me, perhaps all of us. Am I wrong? IP: Logged |

@LBCAs far as I'm concerned, you started the argument with DopGang. He made a harmless comment and you were gearing up to mock him: quote: What?!? You are lucky that I am unable to put a gif here for technical reasons lol. I'm not sure if they are truly as OP says but nobody bonds in malicious action without also being of a malicious nature. I'm a double Gem (mars+moon) but come on.
He had just comforted teasel and was also being gracious towards the people who sometimes gossip. He was being all-around nice here. Not that your comment was terrible, but it was the first punch. Maybe you can acknowledge your part in creating tension. Also, the way you lectured me and Electro...that was excessive. You're a good writer and I usually enjoy your comments. Maybe tr Jupiter squaring your Gem/Sag stuff is just expanding your thought processes, and you might want to focus on condensing your arguments. IP: Logged | |
