GEMINI

 

Gemini is the element of Air, a dual-natured sign, and ruled by Mercury.

The main energy with Gemini is the gaining of information, a deep desire to "know why". There is deep development of the rational mind with Gemini, which makes him very talkative, communicative and sociable. He is very quick-minded and curious. However, if this curiosity gets out of control it can become negative as in gossip, creating a restless state of mind which becomes fickle and scattered.

Part of the duality of Gemini is their androgynous. Like quicksilver they interplay and change places with their twin energy. They either flit from one thing to another and become proficient at none, or they have a vast and versatile knowledge about their subject. Gemini have deep focused attention, and are interested in what is happening around them now.

He has a strong ethical code and deals fairly.

COLOURS: The colours yellow, deep peachy, rose and violet depict fun, laughter, spirituality and wisdom coupled with insight. Things are both grounded, and ungrounded, they are inter-dimensional and of the air, of the birds, seeing from above etc.

Castor and Pollux: Castor and Pollux the twins and sons of Zeus who were hatched from an egg laid by Leda after she mated with Zeus disguised as a Swan, making Gemini half bird. The Twins are brave and clever warriors, one of them human and one divine.

When one dies, they make a pact with Zeus to alternate their mortality with their immortality, and during the swap over, spend time together. This depicts the intense spiritual and highly ethereal awareness of Gemini. A deep transpersonal realm of consciousness. Gemini have a sense of the eternal secret currents at work in life, which in one sense gives him his sense of not taking life too seriously. However, often his intense intuition clashes with his structured, analytical mind. Often he does not know whether he is a scientist or a mystic!!

 Wolfe: The other myth with Gemini, Romulus and Remiss the twins suckled by the she wolf on which Rome was built . This is part of the transformation from human thinking and being to divine states of being and consciousness, all contained within the androgyny of Gemini, brining male and female together, Spirit and Ego together. We then see the wolf has evolved to see through human consciousness and through service to the Godhead in all, has evolved to human consciousness. Also the cunning and alertness of the consciousness of the wolf has benefited human consciousness.

Bird Man Mystic: From Animal, to Human to the Soul flying free in the heavens, represented by the Bird Man. The overall view, seen from above, freedom from earthly bondage and feathers depict spirituality and transformation from lower states of consciousness.

Air/Wind: Signifies Gemini being an Air sign, and the fact that air is everywhere and the wind blows ideas, permeating all things. The wind blows the hair as hair being our heavenly roots into which Castor and Pollux reign.

Zein and Gemini: Zein represents an action, a step forward, a powerful movement, a fantastic energy which advances and which nothing can stop anymore. It is the energy of desire which drives people to do things, make progress and develop.
