What's the best match for Gemini?!

[Piperbunny]

does anyone know how I can find this out?! A site or personal experience! I'm wanting to know whether GEmini suits Pieces or Aries best :) Thankyou

[Litha]

surf over to www.astro.com and check out the free reports they have! forcasts, personal profiles, relationship readings....

[shnen]

whatever you do, just dont go for another Gemini! Take it from one right here! :eek:

[Wicce]

Hehe, I think everyone can make it together if they try...

Gemini are gold with Sagittarius, although that is their opposite side. When it's good it's great, when it's bad it's worse. Also, they're good with Aries and Aquarius. :)

[Lucidia]

in my personal experience... i've dated a lot of different signs... and:

gemini-gemini: very bad. not HORRIBLE... but having a "four way" relationship is very confusing... seems like everyone involved has alterior motives or something... communication, is EXTRA important... and i'd suggest getting to know each other really well before actually planning on comitting.... a gemini that's not really REALLY devoted to someone is easily distracted...

gemini-aries: hmm... air and fire involved here... i got burned up. drained. i was spiritually dead for a year last time i tried that. it can be GREAT though.. but it can also be really really draining for the gemini.. and the gemini can easily fuel a very dangerous fire within aries....

gemini-capricorn: i've tried this a bunch of times... it KINDA works.. but it seems like a lot of caps don't really want a relationship... although they are VERY devoted when they do... if they don't.. and you pressure them.... or you're too hyper or over-reactive (like me), you'll push them away.... (hence my current broken heart.. over a cap). once again.. communication is very important.... caps are often very closed about feelings.. i would say... based on my experience...

gemini-scorpio: no. dont' bother. bad idea. it REALLY doesn't work. i mean... ANYTHING is possible.. but this seems to be the worst of all the combinations i've tried.... the gemini, being very adaptable and constantly changing and evolving... never standing still... with a very straight forward and dedicated (and sometimes stubborn...)scorpio.... leads to some problems... indeed. it can be really good... but end up being really bad... especially when the tables turn.. and you're the one looking for committment.. and instead of an embrace... the scorpio can sting you to the bone...

i'm sure i've dated other signs... but at the moment i can't recall too many of them... my longest relationship was back when i was a religious zealot (a jehovah's witness actually... because of the guy.. not really because i was intersted.. although i got sucked in hard for the duration of the relationship), he didn't celebrate his birthday so i don't even remember it!

i fell in love really hard with my scorpio.. and my last heartbreak.. was a cap.

all that was my personal experience.. not really based off any 'valid' source.. unless you trust my judgement.

look into those nifty online compatibility tests.. they're usually very accurate.

[MammaStar]

I have some of the same results as you Lucida. Even the Scorpio thing. One of my closest friends (not too mention my Mom and kid brother) are Scorpio's. When we were a "sort of" item, we FOUGHT constantly. We still argue from time to time as friends, but we end up patching things up.

I find, for me, the best combo to be Geminii-Leo. Eshallet is a Leo, and four of my friends, including my best friend and another who i consider my soulmate are all Leo.

[Lucidia]

in my bordom, i tripped over this quiz... which is somewhat related.... it's supposed to give you a clue of what you're looking for... and therefore point you toward the right sign perhaps?

http://quiz.ivillage.com/astrology/tests/lovevibes.htm

[Mnemosyne]

Perhaps some signs are better together; however, I think that anyone can make it work if they have the right chemistry. I'll tell you that from experience, Leos and Geminis are good together.

[Janelle]

I agree with Mnemosyne, anyone can make it work - you may just have to work a little harder in some relationships. I'm a Gemini and have been with my Scorpio for nearly 10 years. I think we have a great relationship and make a wonderful team.

[Litha]

check the relationship of the luminaries and love planets from each person's chart, this will help see how you relate to one another. also follow and find the rulers of the relationship houses and see where they are placed.

[mol]

Heh.

Well, I am a Cancer and Im with a a Leo. Whats up with that!?

[Litha]

Ya neally wanna know? Givin' you the good with the bad then :D

Leo will have a lot of trouble breaking through the protective shell of the Cancerian because the crab likes to hide his/her feelings inside and shows the world a very different image of being thicker skinned than they really are. Eventually Leo will break through and then he or she will find a very sensitive person with feelings that are easily damaged.

Cancer is attracted to Leos regal bearing and fun loving manner, but can find that their value system might differ. The fiery ardor of Leo will cause Cancer to feel that real love cannot last with such intensity and begins to doubt Leos heartfelt words of love. Being Moody at times, Cancerians are easily hurt by which does not go over very big with Leo.

The quiet outer facade' of Cancer was possibly the attraction for Leo and Cancer will do well to try to be everything that Leo expects in a mate. Cancer can provide, totally by instinct, the kind of home Leo wants and expects and this alone can heal many wounds. Leos occasional, wildly extravagant moods will aggravate the economical values of Cancer. Cancer worries about the future and the future is the furthermost thing from Leos mind and only amuses him/her.

Cancer will feel a bit more enthused around Leo's glow and will probably let Leo run things or at least let them think they are in charge and hey! what's the difference. Leo will appreciate cancer's attention and as long as cancer can forget that they feel neglected at times when Leo is out running the world, there is a chance this could work.

Both Leo and Cancer feel they should be the 'boss' and the home loving, nurturing, Cancer may spend more time brooding than talking unless allowed to make most of the decisions. This situation can be difficult to tolerated by Leo who loves the limelight. A considerate and giving attitude on the part of Leo, and the positive type of Cancerian it can be made to work well.

Usually this is a good combination, since the Moon (Cancer) reflects the light of the Sun (Leo). There is a lot to be said for these two, especially if Cancer will be happy reflecting the admirable Leonian personality. Leo's huge heart will soon forgive the moody outbursts that Cancer shows from time to time and which result from the strong influence of the Moon, Cancer's ruling planet. Cancer more than any other sign, responds to the moon's aspects as it moves swiftly through the zodiac.

**Smiles** I've learned a few things from personal experience that might be helpful for Scorpio-and-??? aspects. . .

* I last about three minutes with the average Aries before wanting to tear out their throats. The chemistry is really good, though. :)
* Tauruses(sp?) - What can I say? I'm completely compatible. . . I've never met a female Taurus that I didn't find attractive physically and mentally.
* Geminis make the best adopted siblings. **Smiles** I've known several Geminis in my life, and while I was never involved with any of them, I value their friendship greatly.
* Cancers, by and large, are too whiney for my taste. :p There are exceptions to this rule (Melysande, for example); but they're few and far between.
* Leos are as bad as Aries, if not worse - and the sex isn't even as good.
* Virgos again fall under the whiny category, for me anyway. This is kinda ironic - my Rising sign is Virgo, you'd think I could tolerate them a bit better.
* Libras are cool people. . . very spiritual as a rule, though sometimes this takes them on the other side of the Sanity line as far as I'm concerned.
* I can get along with other Scorpios until I really get to know them. Then I can't be around them. :p
* Capricorn - I've had a few friends of this sign--good friends, much as the Geminis I've known have been really good friends.

(Two of them, because I'm on the Gemini cusp.)

Not only am I whiny (because you only said I'm not *too* whiny, not that I'm not whiny at all), but I'm also not a good adopted sibling because I'm not a Gemini. **sobs.... sniffles..... cries her eyeballs out**

[Danustouch]

Hmmmmmmmm...as a Gemini, let me give you a brief run down of my incompatibilities, vs. Compatibilities.

Gemini:Virgo- BAD MATCH. Virgo's tend to be exceedingly anal retentive about some things. And gemini's, being so adaptable, simply do not understand it. So fights break out rather easily.

Gemini:Cancer- Great for friendships. Bad for relationships. First of all, Cancers can be packrats to the point of downright messiness. And Gemini's also have a tendency to be unorganized. Sounds like they would get along, right? Not if they have to live together. The two of them will rarely get anything accomplished. Also, Cancer's moodiness, and tendency to dwell on sad issues, frustrates Gemini who is in constant need of new adventures, and happy times.

Gemini:Pices- another REALLY BAD MATCH. This is just my personal experience, and may be differen' for other people, but Pices tend to really have communication issues. They don't really like to talk much, instead, choosing to think very deeply, and hold much inside. Gemini's, on the other hand, are very verbose, we love to talk, exchange idea's, and "talk things out". We're also pretty spontaneous with what we say. Not putting a whole lot of consideration into our words ahead of time. This creates the perfect environment for misunderstandings, and hurt feelings. Been there. Done that.

Gemini-Capricorn: Capricorn is a pretty fixed, and stubborn sign, in my experience. They are very set in their goals, and ideals. So if you are going to get into a gem/cap relationship, make sure your goals and ideals are VERY similar. If not, a painful ending to the relationship could happen.

Gemini-Libra: Good Match, in my opinion. Both are pretty cerebral/airy signs. Both are into beauty. Libra will most likely impress Gemini, being as talented as Libra's usually are. And be able to hold Gemini's short attention span. Plus, they both love to talk, and are both social butterflies, so the issues of jealousy shouldn't really come to play.

Gemini-Aries: Great friendship. Possible good relationship, though with some pit falls. Aries are born leaders. Very passionate in nature. This can both work for them, or harm them. Aries fire might begin to stifle the gemini playfulness. Gemini, being in some ways, a perpetual child, might feel that Aries is overbearing, or bossy. If Aries learns the positive traits of his sign, (that being a leader, doesn't always mean being a boss) it could work well. If not..it's disasterous.

Gemini:Taurus- Ugh. Not good. I'm in one. LOL. Taurus is very possessive, Gemini's, the eternal flirt. Not a good combination. Taurus is easily attracted to Gemini, however, Taurus kind of needs to be the center of the universe, and that is almost impossible with a Gemini. So..problems can arise pretty easily. Taurus are very money conscious. Gemini's role is to spend it. Also a difficult situation. And while a Gemini's main goal in life is to make friends, and meet people, create a vast social circle, Taurus' are mainly home bodies. They love familiar things, and people. Close family, and the friends they've had for years. They don't like "new places" "new experiences" but prefer to be in their normal surroundings. Also, Gemini tends to say things spontaneously, and flippantly, Taurus' pride get's wounded very easily. A tough match. Though if they can work past these differences, the Taurus stability can really aid a wayward Gem.

Gemini- Sag: A whirlwind of energy in THIS relationship. Sag is a very dynamic personality. The party animal. They love to have fun, generally have a great sense of humor, exceedingly optomistic, and very honest. A loyal friend, or partner who could very easily catch, and hold, a gemini's curiosity for a lifetime.

Gemini- Aquarius: Great as friends, or Lovers, but probably not long term relationship material. Both of you are tremendous flirts, Aquarians even tend to have non traditional views of relationships and settling down. This might wound the Gem's ego. However, eager exchange of ideals, and lively debate is one of the best features of this type of match. They will never be at a loss for words, and there will never be awkward silences. Aquarius is quite the idealist. And this might also attract, and capture a Gem's attention, but in the long run, if his cause proves more important to him than SHE Does, it could be a very bitter situation for the both of them.

Gemini-Leo: So far, this has probably been one of my favorite combinations for lovers, and friends. Being only one month apart in the zodiac, i've found that leo's tend to have an "older brother" attitude toward their gemini friends, or lovers. Always ready to dispense the advice. And gemini, being so good with words, knows exactly how to flatter the leo pride, and make him know how "Terriffic" he is in all aspects. Both very social animals, needing to be in the spotlight. And the combination in sexual union..umm....
;)

Let's just say..umm..let's just say nothing incase my husband see's this and knocks me over the head. Suffice it to say..explosive. The Leo is also extremely generous, to a fault. An attractive quality to a Gem. Only problem, is that Leo's, like all cat's, have short bursts of radiant energy, and then they need a lot of rest time. Leo's can often seem lazy to the ever adventuring Gemini, but Gemini must try to understand..the fact is...your lion NEEDS that rest, so that when he does get all that energy back, he shines and radiates to the luminosity that he's supposed to shine :)

Gemini:Scorp- No Experience with this combination. I pretty much try to avoid scorpio relationships ;)

[Danustouch]

Oh...wait..left out Gemini:Gemini.

Gemini's with Gemini's can be BEST friends, and soulmates in many respects. The only problem that I've personally had with other gemini's, is that you are almost too much alike, to really make a go of it. Both so adaptable, that it just never seems to be the right timing for anything. I mean..think about it. You both want to go out on a Saturday night. But...Gem1 asks "Where do you want to go. I'm game for anything" and Gem2 says. "I dunno. Where do YOU wanna go? I'm up for anything, too.". Get used to this, if you're a gemini with a gemini partner. It will be a recurring theme. And even before the relationship starts, you might encounter problems. Problems being, that it may never seem the right time for you to get together. Gem1 is in a relationship, Gem 2 is single. Gem 1 breaks off relationship, Gem 2 finds "mr. temporarily really right". Gem 2 breaks up with mr. Temporarily right, Gem 1 finds "miss temporarily BOMBSHELL of the moment". Etc. Trust me. My best friend is a Gem. And we thought of dating eachother. Many times. Just..never at the same time. :)

Speaking sidereally, that one's Sun, signs are not as important as are the aspects of the various planets and luminaries to each of the couples birth ascendant, and birth sun. Also, that a study of the personalities of the parents of each of the candidates will yield more disclosures if the often hidden personalities.

I agree that Leos and Geminis are good matches. Do geminis like to be in the spotlight also? The geminis whom I know aren't in a dire need to be in the spotlight. Leos like to be though. In my opinion, geminis know how to keep the leo's bold nature under control. I never thought of the Gemini as being the Leo's "older brother." Know that I think of it, geminis do a good job at watching over leos.

[Danustouch]

Maybe, but Leo's LOVE to give Gemini's advice :) Being the "King of the Forest" and all ;)

[Danustouch]

Oh...and though Gemini's need to be in the spotlight isn't as great as Leo's, The Gemini's I know, including myself, ARE in desperate need of attention, constantly. :)

[Epona44]

I've dated people of the supposedly compatible signs Aries and Leo, and found them rather unbearable. For most of my life everyone who has ever been a long time, lasting friend has been a Capricorn. I get along like a house afire with Scorpios.

Sagitarians, it depends. Libras are fun to watch and Virgos are good people if you've done the housekeeping.

But I am living with a Gemini right now and it's just never boring.

He's and artist, I'm a writer, we both have gregarious natures and intense interest in new things and ideas. We have a sufficient number of interests that are separate, so we don't get under each other feet.

But, you know, his ex was also a Gemini and they drove each other crazy. So maybe there are other influences in people's charts that make for compatability.

[mooo_mommy]

I am in a gemini-scorpio relationship now. We have been together for 4 years and have a 18 month old baby together. I have to say that this is the biggest fighting relationship I have ever had. It seems like every week we are in a huge argument over something, but when things are good they are very good. I wouldn't recomend this combination to my worst enemy.

[Drisel]

I'm in a Cancer Scorpio relationship. I have to say the loalty to eachother and the sex are great. One other area of conflict to watch for is that I love a clean house and decorating. My mate on the other hand could care less about the general state of the house and would perfer to spend his time watching movies, good or bad. The only downside is when we both get moody but that rarely happens at the same time so all in all its good.:D

[Methanespirit]

Determining mates and matches through Astrological sun signs is not the way to use the system. In a man's chart, the astrologer needs to check any aspects to his Moon and Venus, also any aspects to the Sidereal ruler of the Ascendant. Assuming that neither Moon nor Venus is afflicted, then there should be an interchange of these two in a mate's chart especially to the natal Ascendant.

The same goes for the woman, except look for Sun and Mars interchanges from his to her chart.

I'm down with that !

dating an interesting man...he's an Aquarius, me Cap
some friends that dabble in astrology are horrified...WHAT? Aquarians do go with Caps!!!

1st off..why I ask?
what is so awful about a Sun sign conjunction? it's not even one with an orb of 10 degrees, just sign.

What's key is the point that CH4 makes here:
Look at the entire chart
Look at the aspects
Look at the angles
what's going on between the 2 charts?

I looked at his data Jan 28, 1970 Philadelphia, PA 7pm
and mine Jan 7, 1966 Manila, Philippines, 5:37am

quick check of the chart shows the closest aspect as
my Vertex conjunct his Asc by 17 minutes
the next closest aspect is my Saturn/Chiron conjunction atop his NN by 54 minutes
my Sun conjunct his Merc
my Venus Mars conjunction atop his Sun Venus conjunction
hehehe, can anyone say karmic?

intersting how looking at the interplay of the chart you can see that communication is a strong part of the relationship
then again he is quite the talker...Jupiter 3rd house

only 3 into it and verrrry interesting so far....should be even more interesting to see how the Sun/Venus/Mars tie in unfolds <g>

...........methanespirit

now this is something I haven't heard or read about.
my guy says his father has a difficult personality and this has been a challenge for everyone in his household. They are very close knit, his mother as the glue. Traditional italian family, his sister lives a 1/2 mile away with a family of her own. He grew up with a happy childhood, yet he still feels the strain of his fathers "difficult" personality..as he terms it
so then, something like this disclose something in his own personality? do tell!

[shnen]

gemini here, and right now I am dating a wonderful leo.
I think it has much more to do with the rest of the chart as well, not just your sun sign.

as for this Gem... I stay away from Gem males, we jsut dont get along on any level... but thats just me.

[Danustouch]

I did a compatibility chart between me and my Gemini friend, and his and my venus really conflicted. It was so true. Basically, the chart said that while our emotions run very deep for eachother, externally, there is a coldness or distance between us. This is entirely the fact. Basically, it said that while we are incredibly caring about eachother, any sexual relationship between us could be very difficult. Which was always the case between us. We always cared very deeply about eachother, and loved eachother to bits and pieces. But when it came down to intimacy...it just wasn't..."There". It was one of the major reasons why we didn't get together.

[sable]

i would have to agree with lucidia about the gemini capricorn thing.
i love my capricorn boy dearly, but he broke it off y-day.
it was exactly as she described.
definately too spastic for him, and he needs his space.

[SylverStar]

Where is Lucidia?

[Prudence Rose]

My answer for this is Aries.

[FlyingBear]

Being in a relationship with a Scorpio has been one of my biggest challenges, I gotta say. Seabhac and I have been together seven years, married for almost three and have a cappie baby girl on the way. Gods willing, we'll survive it. :hairraise

Me? Aquarius with Aquarius rising and a moon in libra. I don't recall the rest of my chart, except that my Mars is in Aries. Although I seem more and more like an earth type the older I get. :rolleyes:

BAH!

LOL

I'm also an Aquarius sun and Aquarius rising, with a virgo moon...married to my scorpio (nearly textbook scorp at that!) for 9 years, together for 11. It is ANYTHING but boring, to say the least, but, in terms of Chinese astroloy, we are fated to each other....so go figure.

While it is a challenge, there are several very admirable qualities in him that I wouldn't trade for the world, and we produced two Cancerians :)

Nyah

[docdoo]

Im a Virgo, married to a Virgo. Began as a very good combination, tons in common, both very analytical and precise. However...after 10 years of marriage the Virgo, Virgo combination has become quite the burden.

Now the more troublesome aspects of this pairing are being seen, being too critical of one another. Nagging and nitpicking each other to pieces and critisizing one another when we dont believe the same anymore.

Definatly a difficult pairing and I dont know that I would recommend it myself! :)

Til next time,

[Epona44]

Okay, here's my complaint.

I'm a Gemini matched to another Gemini. We aren't supposed to get along, however, he's the best match I've ever met. We have conflicts, but we are both peaceful people and not inclined to let problems go unaddressed for very long.

I'm supposed to be a match for Aries, Leo and Saggitarius. All of the people I've met of those signs have so far been incompatible.

The people who have been my friends for the longest time were all Capricorns. I now have one Saggitarius friend, but in general I don't get along with them.

I get along great with Virgos, Scorpios, and Aquarians and Pisces. I think it's the whole influence of the natal chart that makes a difference.

[SylverStar]

Oh you definatly have to consider the whole chart. However I'm not sure really if Gemini/Gemni relastionship is incompatable I would just think it would take a little extra work. Kind of like an Aquarian/Gemini relationship not bad but takes work.

[Niah]

Also, keep in mind that these are one's astrological *inclinations*, and those are behaviors that are highly modifiable by a variety of things (environment, socio-economic status, health, etc...) Just because one is X sign doesn't necessitate that their behaviors are going to be predictable in accordance with that sign. The sun sign is the strongest influence on these tendencies, but there is an entire chart to consider and also the above modifiers (health, environment...).

I always try to approach my chart with a mindset that, I may have to work hard at it, but anything that chart says about my behaviors, feelings and thoughts are ALWAYS subject to change, just like in a tarot reading. I constantly re-create mySelf with every new experience.


~Peace

I completely agree with that! From what I've seen, it's all in what someone is willing to do to keep a relationship strong. Still, I really shouldn't talk. I'm a Taurus married to a Taurus. We've been together since high school.

Hmmm...now that I think of it, ...Well, I don't have much experience with dating others, I can say don't stick me with a Sag! Wow, just way too much goin' on. My family is full of frank Sagittarians, Aries, and Leos . My brother is a Capricorn and we get along fine, but the rest of 'em just drive me nuts! (this is taking in to account rising signs and moons, by the way.) None of them understand why I'd rather fiddle with my herb garden instead of going to a nightclub. They dubbed me "the most boring person alive" when I nodded off during my sisters' bachlorette party. Honestly! What good does it do to watch a half-nekked man man dance around if you're not going to have sex with him?

I guess my family's right! I'll just go back to my wine and my book now....

[Arylon]

Interesting thread...as a Gemini, I have always been told that I would get along with other Air signs and Fire signs. While I like Libras very much, Aquarians are generally a little "out there" as far I am concerned. And I like Leos :floating: but the other Fire signs are too....abrasive for me to deal with.
However, I have a Pisces moon, and Mercury, Venus & Mars ALL in Taurus....so I'm a bit odd for a Gemini. :)

[tube527]

For me, I've always seemed to fall hard for Geminis as I am a Gemini myself. My first love was a Gemini, the next heartbreak was a Gemini, and so on. I've told myself that I will never date another Gemini again because it's too much of a hassle, but some reason I can't get away from them....it must be the chase..I don't know....or the four personalities that make it exciting!

I personally think for myself my soulmate is a Gemini...it seems that I always have the greatest times and experiences w/them. I just have to learn which one won't hurt me :-)

Sags always keep my attention though....really hard to get away from! Not a good match though....

[JWill0ws]

Being a Gemini myself - also (hello to all my sign brothers and sisters!!) I have had a terrible experience with Taruians. I seem to get along with Aquarians, Sagitarians, Libras, and Leos both in friendships and other relationships. Much of my family seems to be Arians and Pisces.

However, I do believe that the core to every successful relationship takes work, regardless of sign compatability. In addition, I do believe that many people can be successful in their love endeavors regardless of their sign compatability.

Though I do believe in astrology, I believe that there is more than that to a successful relationship (regardless of its type: familial, platonic, erotic, etc.)

:colorful:

[RedRose]

As has been mentioned here, judging a relationship by Sun signs is almost completely useless. Having different, or similar, "personalities", or ways of expressing out in the world, isn't that big a deal. On the other hand, looking at Moon signs, Mars, Venus and well...looking at two whole charts and seeing how everything all works together is SO useful and enlightening. Different relationships have very different purposes and certainly most of our best most cosmic relationships, may not, in truth, make good life partners, or even romantic flings. We are passionately attracted to people for all sort of reasons. Some folks help us avoid our best path, some folks just help us escape a bit, some folks create extra work and karma for us, and some relationships make us better people year after year.

Having said that, Gemini Sun folk are especially challenged in the realm of relationship. This is simply because they think 15 thoughts to everyone elses one thought. Gemini Sun folk are VAST communicators; they wear slower folk (like many Tauruses, for instance) out. In truth I think it takes another Gemini or an Aquarius to really, fully, conceptually, keep up with a Gemini Sun's mind. That is simply the curse of having a Gemini Sun - you are plugged into some cosmic communication satelites that the rest of us aren't.

But in truth, having someone who can conceptually keep your Gemini pace isn't really that big a deal in romance, though it is great in the workplace when it happens! We all want to have a real heart connection, and for that we have to look more to our Moons.

We also want someone we can actually live with, make good parenting decisons with, and face over the breakfast table on a grumpy day.

Again, Geminis are intense so it isn't a surprise that Geminis here wonder who fits with them...this is beyond the obvious fact that Geminis wonder about everything all the time anyway.

Geminis Sun folk are vastly stimulating and they need stimulation and variety. Most folks are dull and like it that way. This does cut down Gemini's options, but thankfully, love is more about kismet than it is about statistics anyway.
