This hunger for information might be the reason why Geminis are so interesting. Their mind is constantly full of thoughts and ideas.

Gemini is a hyperactive sign. Restless and wanting to learn about everything, they dedicate few time to investigate a topic. Rushing through experiences, routine was not invented for Geminis (and for sure not by a Gemini). This sign is often a Jack of all trades but master of none, as they lack the deep concentration that is necessary to become truly good at something. Gemini is about collecting the pieces of the puzzle. The house opposite of the third house is the ninth house of higher education.

Superficiality is another trait associated with Gemini in astrology. They don’t like to bond on a deep, intimate level. It’s hard for them to stay with one person for a long time, as they get bored easily. This is true both in their friendships and romantic relationships. Even though they are (in)famous for their talkative personality, they don’t like to open up and reveal too personal information.

Gemini people are often ungrateful and sassy. Sometimes they aren’t aware of it that they can hurt other people’s feelings with their sharp tongue. It’s one thing not to be afraid to tell what you think, but it doesn’t mean that you should always prove it by hurting people.

Gemini in Love

As an air sign, Gemini is quite detached. It’s important to be friends, not just lovers, if you want a long-term relationship with a Gemini. Fun and lighthearted, this sign is easy to love.

What It Really Means to Be a Gemini?

They don’t lack mental ability. In its purest form, Gemini is about perceiving the world. They love to watch and observe everything others do. A wild soul with a sarcastic sense of humor, Geminis find it easy to make friends and they are loved by those around them.

As everything in the world, Gemini has both a light and shadow side. People born under Gemini don’t like to focus on one thing for a long time as versatility is what fuels them.
