<\/p>\nCredit: stockyimages<\/a> via iStockphoto<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Have you got a certain Gemini on your mind? He carries a palpable magnetism. Maybe it\u2019s his unsurpassable gift for spinning a great yarn. Or maybe it\u2019s his youthful energy. Yet beneath the chatty surface of this maverick is a contemplative soul on a search for integration and wholeness. It\u2019s part of what makes Gemini such a fascinating guy: he can get as shallow or as deep as you need. Here are four reasons why you could fall into the deep end for him:<\/p>\n Every culture is built on stories–stories of every stripe and color. We all have our own individual and collective tales of glory and woe. Stories have an amazing capacity to bring people from various walks of life together. No wonder we can\u2019t get away from scrolling our feeds on every social platform out there. <\/p>\n But there\u2019s a visceral difference between reading or hearing a story and telling it. Some folks would rather be abducted by aliens than speak in front of a group of people. Others just have a harder time remembering the details or sequence of events. It\u2019s a challenge to get the story across. <\/p>\n Enter Gemini. You have not heard a story being told until you\u2019ve heard it from a Gemini. The most mundane event gets spun into an epic saga that would capture even Homer\u2019s imagination. (As in The Odyssey, not The Simpsons.) If you can\u2019t imagine what value there might be in hearing a really good tale, then put yourself on a total media fast and stay off all social platforms. Do not tune into Netflix; don\u2019t even listen to your favorite tunes. They\u2019re all story-driven. How are you feeling now?<\/p>\n Gemini is living proof that it\u2019s not just the contents of the story; it\u2019s the manner in which the story gets told that will capture you.<\/b> He\u2019s got this down for a few reasons. He\u2019s an air sign, for starters. These are the natural communicators of the zodiac. Air symbolizes social interaction, strong intelligence, and an inquisitive nature that seeks answers. It\u2019s also true that Gemini\u2019s energy resonates naturally with the 3rd House of communication, mental activity and education. And then there\u2019s Gemini\u2019s ruling planet, Mercury. This is the cosmic messenger, and ruler of all forms of communication. That smartphone, tablet, or computer you\u2019re reading from falls under Mercury\u2019s domain. <\/p>\n Considering these factors, it\u2019s not just that Gemini has the gift of the gab; he\u2019s just gifted. He elevates the art of storytelling. It\u2019s not enough for him to tell you that his car got stuck in a snow bank on his way to a meeting; he\u2019s going to tell you at what speed all the other drivers carelessly whizzed by and nearly flattened him, the multitude of thoughts that were running through his mind as he waited–his life at stake–for a rescue in the middle of an urban jungle. You listen at rapt attention. You know he\u2019s surely exaggerating bits and pieces, but it\u2019s so entertaining, and he\u2019s so willing to make fun of himself if it makes you laugh. He has painted such a vivid picture of himself in that snow bank that your heart begins to melt.<\/p>\n You listen to her recount her tale in high definition, and you think she is most unusual, this Gemini: she comes off as ingenuous and ingenious at the same time.<\/b> How can she be so naive and yet so clever? Welcome to the world of duality that Gemini is right at home in. How could she not be an adept of paradox, when her very symbol is that of The Twins? Even the 3rd House to which she is attuned includes siblings. <\/p>\n There are a few phrases that get casually thrown around when describing a Gemini: Jekyll and Hyde or good twin, bad twin. These reductive descriptions don\u2019t touch the deeper and more sacred reality of the Gemini twins. Gemini is keenly aware of her dual nature.<\/b> She\u2019s kind of fascinated by the fact that you haven\u2019t yet awoken to yours, though. Let\u2019s face it: we are all bilateral creatures. We\u2019ve got pretty much two of everything on our bodies, including two brain hemispheres. <\/p>\n Two personalities, though? Well no, actually. Ask a Gemini what she makes of her celestial twin status, and she\u2019ll tell you that she thinks of it as having a sacred self, or an invisible other, a divine complement, or a silent witness. Deeply marked by this concept of \u2018the other,\u2019 Gemini knows that \u2018the other\u2019 is herself. <\/p>\n Still, if you fall for her, she will be happy to confer upon you special status as her significant other.<\/p>\n More than most people, Gemini\u2019s internal process is to alleviate the pitfall of black or white thinking; he\u2019s holding space for both black and<\/i> white. This is another alluring facet of Gemini; his clear grasp of duality being two sides of a coin help him to bridge the gap between two seemingly opposite things. In a sense, Gemini is leaning not so much into duality as he is multiplicity.<\/b> <\/p>\n It\u2019s easy for Gemini to dance between vastly different worlds or concepts or people. He\u2019s a mutable man, after all. Mutable signs are adaptable, malleable and mobile. All of this changeable energy eventually grooms Gemini to be a bridge of sorts. A connector. He knows which two people would make a perfect match for a specific business venture. And why not, with his guiding planet in charge of commerce? He identifies links between disparate ideas. He knows exactly how to get from here to there and back again. <\/p>\n Even Gemini\u2019s ruler Mercury is known as the psychopomp, or guide of souls to the afterlife. In Greek mythology Hermes (Roman Mercury\u2019s Greek counterpart) was the only Olympian god, apart from Hades, allowed access to the Underworld. This should offer further information about the impressive ability of Gemini to acquire entry to pretty much any situation. Not because of any particular elite status, but because of his remarkable ability to shift from one state of being to another. It\u2019s pure alchemy, and he teaches it simply by modeling it. You benefit from Gemini\u2019s legendary versatility as if through osmosis<\/b>–and you will never be the same again. <\/p>\n How do you bottle air? If you\u2019re lucky, you can find a way, provided there is enough resonance in your natal chart to get that Gemini Genie into or out of the bottle:<\/p>\n Related:<\/b><\/p>\n Torn between two lovers?
