Gemini am I... or is that we...


Do you follow or care about your zodiac sign? While of course I am aware of “what sign I am” –-- ugh, let’s all wince at the cheesy Hefner-esque 70’s pick up line reference -- I don’t think of it much. Is not something I believe in or focus on, I am way too literal and empirical for that. Or is that non-believing?

I ignore your email for days, then I stalk you. What can I say? Gemini. I have a coworker who makes an are you effing kidding me face every time I say something like “I have two opinions on that” because I pretty much always do.

So while this was top of mind, I did what everyone would do. I googled. This is from http://www.astrologyonline.com/. I have edited it down becuz was really long, and I am easily bored. Apparently this is a Gemini trait.

Gemini, the sign of the Twins, is dual-natured, elusive, complex and contradictory. On the one hand it produces the virtue of versatility, and on the other the vices of two-facedness and flightiness… When they are good, they are very attractive; when they are bad they are more the worse for being the charmers they are. Like children they are lively, and happy, if circumstances are right for them, or egocentric, imaginative and restless. They take up new activities enthusiastically but lack application, constantly needing new interests, flitting from project to project…

Their good qualities are attractive and come easily to them. They are affectionate, courteous, kind, generous, and thoughtful towards the poor and suffering - provided none of the activities resulting from expressing these traits interferes too greatly with their own lives and comforts. They quickly learn to use their outward attractiveness to gain their own ends, and when striving for these they will use any weapon in their armoury - unscrupulous lying, and cunning evasiveness; escaping blame by contriving to put it on other people, wrapped up in all the charm they can turn on... If things go against them, they sulk like children.

Most Gemini have a keen, intuitive, sometimes brilliant intelligence and they love cerebral challenges. Their intellect is strongly analytical and sometimes gives them so great an ability to see both sides of a question that they vacillate and find it hard to make decisions…


So I am smart and flighty, charming and easily bored, egocentric and versatile. Okay there may be some valid points here. And I am an unscrupulous liar and use my incredible good looks (paraphrasing there) to gain what I want. Really? Don’t think so. Oh, and I sulk when I don’t get my way. Yeah that last one may be a tad right. Bastards…

Don't through it all out the window. In a very very generalized way, I think there is something to when we were born and how the planets were aligned at that particular time. We are all just a bunch of 'energy' which comes from the 'big energy ball in the sky'.....yeah it just might have an influence on us and our personalities. I'm a Cancer and fit my 'chart' to a tee as does my hubby.

Those things are creepy... I just read mine. Pretty hit and miss but the hits do freak me out. On the upside, being an Aries supports my desire to be child-like and free forever! Some woman named Starwoman told me so. It must be true!

Isn't it funny how the description of each sign could match any one of us at any given time? But on the other hand . . . mine fits me to a tee....maybe I should have been born a Gemini.

I guess we all have elements of all of them in us, which is what makes them fun and sometimes truthful. Parts of the Gemini one are bang on for me, at least for some time of my life, as I guess they would be for anyone.

Hey we are Zodiac buddies :-) I too am a Gemini and I am pretty sure Doo, my OH, will back me up when I say it is so tur - to a tee.

He still has a clipping of his and my scope from the week we fell pregnant (which we only read after realising we were with child). It was so true and freakily some other months have been true too.

Though when they are in the papers etc I'm sure that everyone who is a Gemini didnt fall pregnant at the same time or have the financial difficulties all at the same time - or did they? lol

Thanks for sharing, Take care KC xx

Brahm (alfred lives here) said...
