Geminis and Libras can work out well, especially if they’re very wealthy. If they can take their yacht up the riviera and stop at the Musée d’Osay to appreciate the Renaissance-era paintings and sculptures, and discuss the themes over a glass of fine wine, while deciding where to shop the next day for the newest fashions, they will live in bliss. If, however, they’re part of the ninety-nine percent, they might find themselves in financial trouble, arguing often about money and growing apart over time.
GEMINI AND SCORPIO LOVE
Gemini and Scorpio can succeed if they treat their love affair like they’re preparing a delicious, gourmet meal. They have to carefully monitor the temperature to make sure their emotions don’t boil over, and treat their partner with care and tenderness, like expensive, prized ingredients. They need to focus on making their presentation of ideas and opinions as thoughtful as the presentation of each course at a fancy restaurant. If they’re not willing to put the time into their partnership, they’ll end up in the relationship equivalent of a Number Four with fries—scarfed down, balled up, and thrown in the garbage.
GEMINI AND SAGITTARIUS LOVE
These two signs make a really strong match, which could be made even stronger by engaging in frisky, open sexuality. These lovers would very much enjoy bringing new people into their bedroom and may want to consider sustaining a polyamorous or even a polygamous relationship. The lady of the relationship could have sister-wives, which would allow for her to enjoy a tight social circle—both Gemini and Sagittarius value close, deep friendships. The male of the relationship could have a variety of sexual partners, which any Gemini or Sagittarius would appreciate. It’s win-win-win.
GEMINI AND CAPRICORN LOVE
If these two stay together it’s because they are both too stubborn to walk away from a challenge. They are different in almost every way, and not in a good, quirky, complementary rom-com way. Capricorn literally wants to rain on Gemini’s parade, and Gemini will pour one hundred percent of his or her energy into teaching Capricorn that rules are meant to be broken.
GEMINI AND AQUARIUS LOVE
When a Gemini and an Aquarius come together, it is certain that they will throw great parties. Not boring old run-of-the-mill dinner parties, but fabulous, memorable parties that will be reminisced about decades later; parties where all sorts of different types of people will come together and have thrilling conversation and really connect on a deeper level. Parties where burgeoning couples will make out for the first time, where the cops are called at least once, and where something catches fire… When the party’s over, this couple can run into problems if Aquarius is too much of a control-freak.
GEMINI AND PISCES LOVE
Pisces, take heed. Gemini will hurt you. Gemini just doesn’t think before he or she speaks, and this can end with Pisces locked in the bathroom crying… again. Pisces will have to grow some thicker skin in order to have a successful relationship with Gemini. The two are in for many late-night, coffee-fueled conversations that explore their dreams and goals and futures.
CAREER AND MONEY FOR DEGENERATE GEMINI
If Gemini has to work in a job that doesn’t require brain power, he or she might go postal. They need a career where they can be thoughtful, fast-paced, and where they can problem-solve. They also need a lot of kudos for their hard work, or else they’ll get depressed. Geminis are not ones to treat their job like a nine-to-five—instead, they’re always plugged in, always checking their email, returning calls and texting. While they’re at the office, they’re most likely to be found at the water cooler or surfing Facebook. To them, this is genuine networking, not just idle chit-chat, and they’re surprisingly successful at harvesting social media “Likes” and turning them into actionable business ideas.
Geminis can write and they can talk, therefore they should be in a career that is communication-based. Since many Geminis see the truth as a moving target, they can be very successful in the field of advertising and marketing. They can also use their silver tongue to argue their points in front of a jury as an attorney. Whatever Gemini chooses, they should plan to change their mind several times over the course of their career. If you are the parent of a Gemini, you should start saving a lot of money for college, because it most likely won’t be a straightforward career path.
The worst possible place for a Gemini is a job where no one listens to their ideas. Geminis need to be heard and acknowledged for their ideas, and see those ideas implemented. If they aren’t challenged in the workplace, or at least entertained, their boredom will equate to low productivity and frustrated management. Bored Gemini might even use their extra time to dig around and ask questions about your business model, because they can be very, very nosey. They will eventually unearth even the best-hidden, seedy schemes.
ABSOLUTE WORST JOBS FOR A DEGENERATE GEMINI
At-home medical billing: Geminis don’t even want to read their own bills that they get in the mail, let alone create a career around billing others. They don’t have the detail-focus to succeed in a repetitive, highly detailed career and their boredom will result in low productivity. Since Geminis are thinkers, they would be forced to get to the bottom of some of the mysteries of medical billing, and delving into the details and inner-workings of the healthcare system is enough to drive anyone completely batty.
Bank teller: They honestly should not be trusted with their own finances, and absolutely should not be in a position to handle other people’s. It is also torture for a Gemini to have to cut their conversations short. While they’d enjoy talking to many different types of people each day, their goal would be to serve as many customers as possible. Launching into thorough conversations with every person who walked up to their window could really get them into trouble. They’re also not that great with stress, and if the bank was ever robbed, they would almost definitely freak out and get everyone shot.
Small business owner: All work and no play does not a fun Gemini make. Small business owners have to put everything behind their goals and burn the midnight oil in order to make their dreams a reality. A Gemini could quickly get burned out and run out of creative ideas if he or she doesn’t have a chance to relax and socialize. Whether he or she is a franchise owner of a mini-mart or a crafter with an Etsy store, the Gemini will need a partner and a full-on support team in order to make a small business profitable.
JOBS THAT A DEGENERATE GEMINI MIGHT NOT SCREW UP
Tour guide: Geminis know all the dirt on everybody. They have an unbelievable retention rate for gossip, and will be able to spin wild stories around even the dullest geographical locations. They’ll research tirelessly and thoughtfully put together a narrative that makes any tour truly come alive. Whether you’re creating a visitors’ tour for your string-cheese factory or a neighborhood walking tour of superior desert shrubbery, a Gemini is hands-down the right hire for this gig.
Stand-up comedian: Geminis can be really funny and sharp-witted, with impeccable timing. They also can read a crowd and think on their feet to make each show the best that it can be. The Gemini charisma and charm allow them to handle hecklers, and their two-faced nature and sometimes-dark fantasy life can give them plenty of good material to trash all sorts of people.
Bartender/hairdresser: Geminis are natural born talkers. Almost any other astrological sign would dread going to a job where everybody unloaded their personal problems, but Geminis adore that sort of interaction. They will listen to how your wife did you wrong, and about the gossip at your office, and then they’ll tell you about how their sister is an idiot and their dog is currently seeing a pet psychiatrist. Geminis can make a wonderful living in a career where chatting others up is their main job description.
