The third sector of the zodiac, Gemini is all about intelligence and communication. You're born under this sign and have a talent for and love of using your minds and expressing yourself fully.

As a Gemini, you are a bower bird, mentally, and take an interest in all sorts of different things. Anything that gets your mind ticking over will grab you. You constantly try to challenge your mental abilities and will make extra efforts to understand anything you put your mind to.

You can’t understand why other people don’t feel the same way. To you, this kind of stimulation is your life blood. Anyone who engages you in quick-witted and thoughtful banter will win your heart for sure.

Some great communicators are born under your sign — actresses Helen Hunt and Marilyn Monroe, for instance. Like them, you take interest in anything that requires a little brain power. Reading and ferreting out information on the Internet are a perfect way for you to unwind. Communication would have to be one of your favorite pastimes.

Taking up acting classes wouldn’t be a bad idea either, even if you don’t fancy yourself as an Emmy Award winner. Meeting new people and sharing your thoughts and feelings with them is enough of a blast for you.

Not all Geminis have brains on the brain, though. Anna Kournikova, the tennis superstar, proves that — she puts her focus into physical exercise. She is a superb tennis player which requires physical dexterity and mental agility as well.

Gemini is also on the top of the list of achievers in sport. But the sport you get into will be one that requires a strategic and intellectual approach. If it doesn’t, it won’t sustain your interest. Tennis, chess, golf and card games like bridge and canasta appeal to you.

If you could be accused of anything, it would be that you spread yourself too thinly, by being interested in too many things. To some people, you seem superficial and flighty. It’s the ‘rolling stone gathering no moss’ thing — doing a bit of this and a bit of that and not getting deeply into any one thing.

You see it differently, of course. To you life is a smorgasbord, and you’re going to taste everything. Trying just one main course, so to speak, isn’t your thing. Variety, diversity and experimentation are some of your key words. And you can always say, ‘At least I’ll never be boring!’

The fact that you take on so much also means you risk wearing yourself out and letting your vitality engine slow down. It is not easy for you to pace yourself, but if you can get your self-discipline working on this, you can achieve more than most. Make sure you have enough fuel in your gas tank to get you to where you want to go.

People always love your company — your adaptability makes you interesting. People are amazed at your versatility, at the way you manage to juggle so many different activities. Is there anything you don’t try your hand at? They wonder.

Learning will always be one of your passions — you don’t believe there’s ever a good time to limit someone’s desire to improve their mind.

You have a great love of the written as well as the spoken word, and will often put pen to paper — or hands to keyboard — to get your own thoughts down. Sometimes this is just so you can work out what you think about a particular issue or event. Lots of journalists, writers, and advisers are Geminis; their way with words is their best tool for making a lasting impression.

You also have a strong connection to travel and short journeys. You’ll often feel restless, and your itchy feet will set you wandering. These journeys may not be long, but there will be plenty of them — you’re always on the go. You are thirsty for new experiences, and even on short journeys or in transit, you’ll throw yourself into meeting new and unusual people.

You’re fascinated by psychology and the way human relationships work, so you will seek a life partner who is as into communication as you are. You will need this sort of person if you are to achieve emotional fulfillment.

You are the type of person friends and relatives turn to for advice on their love life. This has an upside for you too — it helps you understand what’s going on in your own life, romantically speaking.

Geminis seem to grow younger rather than older. Physically, you will maintain a youthful glow, and you will never lose your fun-loving liveliness. You’re really not into that 'growing old gracefully' thing.

Vitality and constant stimulation are what you are about. A peaceful old age is definitely not your cup of tea (even if you happen to be over 60).

THREE CLASSES OF GEMINI
May 22 - June 1
Being born between the 22nd of May and the 1st of June makes you a Gemini with a cusp influence of the previous sign, Taurus. Although you’re primarily an intellectual type with intense Mercurial influences, Venus, the ruler of Taurus, also imprints upon you considerable sensuality, grace and charm. You not only love the written word, intellectual pursuits and other forms of communication, but may gravitate towards artistic, musical and creative pursuits to express your inner need for cultural perfection.
June 2 - June 12
If you’re a Gemini born between the 2nd and the 12th of June, you also have a tendency to be sensual but have the influence of Libra as well which makes you at times indecisive about your life path. You need clarity in your choice of partners and must never impulsively rush into any sort of relationship.
June 13 - June 21
If you’re born between the 13th and the 21st of June, the influence of Aquarius and the unpredictable planet Uranus has a sway over your life and your temperament. You are spontaneous in many areas of your life and like to explore the unknown. Your life will swing from the positive to the negative so you must be prepared for some turbulent times in your life. At least you’ll never be bored with the challenges that are presented to you, and as you grow older and develop more wisdom, you’re likely to be regarded as someone with extraordinary knowledge and a capacity to help those around you. Your path is one of compassion and humanitarianism.  


BORN ON A CUSP?
Gemini- Taurus cusp
Gemini’s adaptability is nicely offset by the rock solid Taurus if you are born during the first week or so of Gemini (that is between the 22nd and 29th May)
Your ruling planets of Mercury for Gemini and Venus for Taurus will have an impact on your character and personality.
Gemini has an insatiable curiosity, high energy levels and creativity but this is tempered somewhat by the security required by Taurus.  This enhances your imagination and gives you a drive to succeed that is not too thinly dissipated by your day-to-day activities. 
By being born under the combination of Gemini and Taurus your chances of succeeding on a material level are greater than if you are not a cusp baby. 
Being a cusp baby makes you a very sensitive and patient individual, and it doesn’t bother you greatly if success doesn’t immediately come to you.  You are patient and hard-working enough to wait for that achievement to come to fruition.
You have a great understanding and appreciation of what your endeavours can bring and whilst you aware of and often seize opportunities that come your way, you will only do this if the practical Taurean can see some value in them.
You are kind-hearted and don’t hesitate to hold out a helping hand to anyone who needs it.  You are gentle and have a practical approach to assisting others and with your kind words and direct way of dealing with things, you get right to the heart of the problem.
You have a great work ethic and carry out the most menial of tasks with the same care and precision you would adopt for anything else you do.  You are a perfectionist at heart, mainly due to the Taurean influence.  You are modest about your achievements but the world will be a better place if you can rise above your hesitancy and share your talents with others.

Gemini – Cancer cusp
Here we have the head and logic of Gemini and the heart and soul of Cancer.  This combination gives you a more emotional and sensitive side.  Your feelings are also stronger with the Cancer influence.
If you were born between the 14th and 21st of June, you will tend to display many of the traits of the crab, the sign of Cancer.
This combination of two signs may give you difficulty in choosing between “your head and your heart” as the saying goes.  As a Gemini you will naturally pride yourself on the fact that you can be rational about many of the decision you must make in your life.  But add the emotional Cancer into the mix and you have a different way of looking at things.
Cancer traits may show up in a more moody Gemini who is not as easily able to separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak.  This is especially so when it comes to matters of a romantic nature and may make your usual sharply focused decision-making a little cloudier.  This could be an irritation for you, but this is a by-product of being a cusp baby.
You have strong mental traits Gemini but sometimes, emotional issues will fog up your brain. Yoga or meditation where you can chill out, learn to regulate your breathing and let your mind and emotions settle will help immensely. This will also help to balance you out so that you are not swinging like a pendulum from one extreme to the other.
The important thing you need to learn Gemini is how to keep your brain and emotions on an even keel. Find hobbies that will stimulate your mind but ones that will enable you to be completely at ease and able to rest. 
With Cancer’s connection to the Moon, which tends to heighten your sensitivity, don’t get too upset when someone makes a thoughtless comment.  You generally don’t take kindly to criticism, even if it is constructive, and tend to see it rather as an attack on your nature or intention to do well by the world.
The emotional side of Cancer will give you an openness and warmth that other may want to take advantage of.  You are generally rather perceptive when it comes to choosing friends and your intuition is spot on and will rarely let you down.
