Gemini, the sign of the Twins, is dual natured, elusive, complex and contradictory. On the one hand Gemini produces the virtue of versatility and on the other the vices of flightiness. The zodiac sign is linked with Mercury and its subjects tend to have the graces and faults of the young. When Gemini is good, they are very attractive, when they are bad they are more the worse. Like children they are lively, and happy, if circumstances are right for them, or egocentric, imaginative and restless.
Gemini takes up new activities enthusiastically but lack application, constantly needing new interests, flitting from project to project as apparently purposelessly as a butterfly dancing from flower to flower. To them life is a game which must always be full of fresh moves and continuous entertainment, free of labor and routine. Changing horses in the middle of the stream is another small quirk in the Gemini personality which makes decision making, and sticking to a decision, particularly hard for them.
This sign is the third astrological sign in the Zodiac, originating from the constellation of Gemini. In western astrology, this sign is no longer aligned with the constellation as a result of the precession of the equinoxes. In astrology, Gemini is considered a masculine, positive sign. It is also considered an air sign, and is one of four mutable signs. Gemini has been closely associated with the planet Mercury and is considered to be ruled by it. Being the third sign of the zodiac, this sign has been associated with the astrological third house.
Individuals born when the Sun was in this sign are considered Gemini individuals. Under the tropical zodiac, the Sun is in the sign of Gemini roughly from May 21 to June 21, ending at the moment of summer solstice by definition.
