Astrological Profile
Gemini is a Mercury ruled Air Sign. Thinking and ideas Òlive in the airÓ soto speak as they have no Earthly form. Mercury is about thinking, speaking,deal making, carrying messages, and so on. Gemini is His first sign, and thefirst of the air signs. So, Gemini has a special kinship with messages whichtravel in the air, which could be gossip, or TV advertising, Radio and so on.Since Mercury is a very non-committed entity, so also Gemini has thetendency to be open to all ideas, and therefore is very good for study, learning,scholarship, education, teaching, repeating things learned, book publishing,and so on.In Sanskrit Gemini is called Mithuna, which means ÒsexÓ essentially. Thecoming together of a pair of lovers for the exchange of love is a type ofmeeting, which Gemini supports very well. Gemini and Mercury are verysupportive of talks, messages and negotiations, and not so much about whatis being shared. Mercury and itÕs signs are more about handling messages andinformation rather than committing to the specific content of any onemessage. There are many things which carry messages without concern forthe content- such as computer disks, libraries, phone lines, colleges, mirrors,etc., and these things have a touch of either Mercury, Gemini or both, insideof them.Wherever Gemini sits in the chart, there we will find intellectualism. IfGemini is in the first house, we will find an overall interesting but dealmaking person. If Gemini is in the seventh, the person will have a tendencyto make deals with the spouse. If Gemini is in the ninth, the person willhave a tendency to intellectualize about religion, but necessarily commit toany one religion.Jnan, pronounced ÒgyawnÓ like ÒyawnÓ with a ÒgÓ in front, is a Sanskrit wordthat means ÒknowledgeÓ. But it means Òbook knowledgeÓ or just knowingfacts, not realized knowledge, which is more like ÒwisdomÓ. Gemini andMercury are more into jnan, than vijnan (vig-gyawn). A jnani is one whoÒknows alot of thingsÓ. This does not necessarily imply depth of character, ordepth of wisdom, which requires positive help from Jupiter and Saturn. Asoldier who teaches war at a college may know alot about warbut may be ÒachickenÓ when it comes to fighting. Gemini and Mercury are about jnan.
