Gemini (a tale of duality)

by the ADHD Accountant – Krid

2021 05

Gemini are The Twins and are all about duality, both in opposites and in synchronicity. While this may sound like opposite forces are conspiring to pull them in different directions, and to fall in line with their friends and family that is an unfair attribution. Gemini are actually deeply empathetic and creative individuals who are often challenged between supporting others and expressing themselves.

In terms of being an opposite the Gemini really shines as a creative force – status quo? Status NO! Big feelings need big expression as an individual. That isn’t to say that a Gemini will be loud, boisterous, and outrageous; the expression will be big in the sense of the connection to the Gemini. Sentimental, poignant, dramatic. In expression Gemini may journal or write or sing, but always leave the audience with a sense of the Gemini’s true, authentic self. And, as such, Gemini may seem to be creative, interesting, or weird. But, you know, in a good way?! In a karaoke bar (and I miss those) the Gemini often has their own style.

Synchronicity is Gemini’s empathetic side. To feel like another person, to support another person, to act in concert with another person, or a group. Gemini can be amazing friends and be super supportive, but risk being subsumed in their empathy and often make extraordinary sacrifices. Teamwork makes the dreamwork and all that. If you want to go to the karaoke bar and stay up drinking on Wednesday and need help singing a duet? Gemini has your back.

As a first born Gemini are very responsible for siblings and often advocate for them and make sacrifices for their siblings happiness than the Gemini’s own. Their ability to sympathise with their parents can make them more mature than their peers in some ways at the risk of a lowered ability to self advocate.

Due to Gemini’s empathy, and go with the flow, they may experience a sensation like déjà vu or other forms of depersonalization-derealization due to a disconnect from their own desires as they act on their empathy as the mirror the thoughts and feelings of others.

Gemini’s express extremely deeply and may be frustrated by the lack of empathy of others, especially in reciprocity. A Gemini can get very frustrated having to expand upon what, why, and how they think or feel as they can so easily do to others. Partner’s for Gemini are built over time and with a lot of communication, and patience. Gemini tend to be loyal and follow their partners lead in many activities. It is important for their partner to make sure they have time and listen carefully to ensure they don’t ignore subtle signs that the Gemini has a different preference. A good Gemini partner will ensure that the Gemini gets time to themselves, can express themselves, and engages in preferred activities at times.

Gemini make snap decisions about people due to their high degree of empathy. As many Gemini are not aware of WHY and HOW they evaluate new people there is potential for negative first impressions; especially a more stoic/unexpressive person. Many Gemini can find solace in the solitude of an undemanding, emotionally contained person; however, a Gemini may find certain people to be too cold, and can conflate the lack of positive impressions into a sense of antipathy and anger, often perceived to be directed to the Gemini.

Gemini’s often make great artisans when they can express themselves freely and are able to perform remarkable work on commission given their ability to intuit a customers desires. Gemini are prone to working many, many hours to satisfy their customers and often let the administration side of the business down. A business partner, or a trusted bookkeeper, is essential for many Gemini to be successful entrepreneurs.
