say Gemini, say TWINS

identical, or not so, sibling, sister, brother, close cousin,
special friend, helper, lover, mate

This moment in the cycle brings
awareness of duality.

A sense of self and other arises
and so comes attraction, encounter, rivalry, separation, understanding, union.
The binary universe is born.
Gemini---the eternal game of hide 'n seek with the Other...

Myths and legends the world over treat this theme of the Other,
and the inevitable result of either
Union or Separation,
the bright and dark face of Gemini Spirit.

Dark Twin brings relationship difficulties~
from dependence, entanglement, confusion, projection,
game-playing, lack of sincerity & commitment.
Leading to the very loss of confidence and separation
that this sign so fears.
Gemini then feels, once again, a terrible lack, something missing,
the void where the Other should be.
And tries to fill it with even more events-people-movement-words.

With friends and partners they can play "Me Too!" and "CopyCat",
always wanting what the other has & knows,
wanting always to BE the other,
out of touch with their integrated center, the true self.
They'll play "here today, gone tomorrow" and "catch me if you can",
afraid of getting too close & of the potential pain,
fearful of the loss of movement that intimacy seems to imply.
As an air sign, the ordinary, earthy needs & instincts may be devalued.

Deeply intrigued by sexuality, this energy is fundamentally inventive & playful, though at times this domain may be avoided or blocked,
as it brings up ambivalent feelings & irrational emotions.

The Bright Twin of Gemini energy
will play with the polarity
thru pleasure, youthful spirit, curiosity, openness & spontaneity.
They can feel disappointed & rejected by the slowness & resistance of others.
Always ready to explore & share new information and perceptions,
they experiment,
and add variety, zest & excitement to all relations.
Double your pleasure, double your fun...
New contacts and possibilities follow in their wake.

Ultimately, Gemini is the incoming and outgoing Breath of the Universe, alternating, yet in unison, both polarities vital & necessary.
It represents the integral creative unit
containing both the female/male, the yin/yang, receptive/active principles.

This is Gemini as
BRIDGE
uniting two seemingly separate elements
and realizing that 2 energies can merge,
to form one unit, one Breath,
whole and complete in itself.
