When Gemini and Scorpio come together in a love affair,
they'll need to learn to understand and accept one another's
differences -- and if they can, they will be a nearly unbreakable
couple. Where Gemini is adaptable, intellectual, outgoing and chatty,
Scorpio tends to be secretive, focused, intense and determined. Gemini
tends to take things lightly, including their lover; Scorpio, on the
other hand, has a very deep need for emotional connection and intimacy.
Scorpio is generally very loyal to their lover and very connected to
the
relationship.
This relationship tends to be highly passionate
and
can often be characterized by arguments; Gemini loves a good debate,
considering it the epitome of mental stimulation, and that
characteristic Gemini flirtatiousness tends to grate on Scorpio's
jealous, possessive nerves. Despite these differences, however, this is
no dull relationship. Both Signs love to take chances and spice it up!
They have lots of adventures together, but if things get too tense and
arguments start to turn negative, they must make the effort to
reconcile
if they value the relationship and want it to last.
Gemini is
ruled by the Planet Mercury (Communication) and Scorpio is dually ruled
by the Planets Mars (Passion) and Pluto (Power). Scorpio is generally
quite concerned with sexual and emotional intimacy; they need much
reassurance that their lover values the relationship as much as they
do.
Thank goodness, then, for Gemini's excellent communicative abilities;
the Twins should have no trouble communicating their dedication to the
Scorpion -- if it's dedication they feel. Gemini can't and won't
fake
a commitment they don't feel, so intense Scorpio must learn to back
off
a bit. Gemini will certainly make a commitment to a love relationship,
but only if they're free to do so on their own, not coerced into it.
Gemini is an Air Sign and Scorpio is a Water Sign. These two
elements can be a great combination; after all, the best decisions are
made when they incorporate the intellect (Air) and the emotions (Water)
-- the mind and the heart. The trick, of course, is getting these two
elements to work in tandem. Scorpio is a master strategist; if there's
a decision to be made or a project at hand, they can help flighty
Gemini
focus on the best options. Gemini, in turn, teaches Scorpio to let go
and move on when their efforts are thwarted. There is a downside to
these two elements' union, however; Scorpio's emotional manipulations
can prove to dampen Gemini's natural energy and enthusiasm. Also, airy
Gemini can leave Scorpio's deep waters feeling choppy, rough and
disturbed.
Gemini is a Mutable Sign and Scorpio is a Fixed Sign.
Gemini tends to do things on a whim, just for the experience, contrary
to Scorpio, who almost always has a plan (or an ulterior motive) in
mind. Scorpio can use their focus and determination to help teach
Gemini
the value in finishing things before jumping headlong into the next
experience. Once these two begin to understand that they can enjoy a
satisfying relationship -- Gemini providing the reasoning and brain
power and Scorpio bringing their healthy dollop of sex appeal,
emotionalism and passion -- they can enjoy a truly mutually satisfying
relationship.
What's the best aspect of the Gemini-Scorpio
relationship? The strength they have when they function as a unit. They
are both winners who refuse to give up, making theirs a relationship
that never settles for second best.
