Gemini

Personality

Gemini gets a bad reputation for being two-faced, which is deeply unfair. They're not two-faced — they simply contain approximately seventeen different personalities and deploy whichever one seems most useful at the time. They are wickedly funny, endlessly curious, and can talk to absolutely anyone about absolutely anything within thirty seconds of meeting them. They're the person at the party who somehow ends up in four different conversations at once and is genuinely brilliant in all of them. The downside? Consistency is not their strong suit. They'll be obsessed with something for three weeks and then never mention it again. Finishing things is a concept they're aware of, if not particularly close to.

Perfect Career

Gemini belongs anywhere that rewards quick thinking, sharp communication, and the ability to switch gears at speed. They make brilliant journalists, broadcasters, PR professionals, lawyers, and salespeople. They're also exceptional teachers — if they can make themselves stay on topic, which is a big if. They have a gift for explaining complex things in ways that make everyone go "oh, right, obviously." What they cannot do is the same thing, the same way, every single day. That is not a career. That is a slow decline. Give them variety or watch them mentally check out while nodding politely.

Perfect Partner

Gemini needs a partner who finds their ever-changing mind genuinely thrilling rather than utterly maddening. Libra is a wonderful match — charming, sociable, and smart enough to hold their own in whatever direction the conversation takes. They'll never run out of things to talk about, which for Gemini is basically the definition of romance. Aquarius brings intellectual depth and an independent streak that Gemini deeply respects — they won't cling, they won't sulk, and they'll match Gemini thought for thought on the weird tangents that end up lasting until 3am. Bliss.

Disaster Partner

Scorpio is intense, passionate, and wants to get to the absolute bottom of everything — every feeling, every motivation, every look you gave them on a Tuesday in 2019. Gemini would very much like to not do that, thanks, and would rather keep things light and breezy. Scorpio will find Gemini evasive and shallow; Gemini will find Scorpio exhausting and a bit much. It's not anyone's fault — they're just fishing in completely different emotional depths. Pisces is also a tricky match — too sensitive for Gemini's breezy honesty, and Gemini won't always notice the damage until it's already done.
