What?! You mean I’m not a reserved,sensitive, moody, prudent, domestic, traditionalist? I’m not a Cancer?!
I’m not huge into astrological signs, but after hearing about recent talk of the Earth’s wobble on its axis, creating a one-month bump in the alignment of the stars, I decided to do some research. My July 6th birthday would have formerly been a Cancer sign, but it is now a Gemini. This makes absolute and total sense to me when reading the description of this sign. I’ve always felt like many of the attributes of a Cancer did not accurately describe me at all. Gemini however? Hits the nail on the head.
I have always said I felt like I was a multitude of personalities, I even attempted to explain this in my facebook bio. Anyone who knows me has heard me say I have multiple personalities, but not to be considered a disorder, as I feel very orderly in my mind as a whole. One of the main traits of being born a Gemini is their dual personalities and ability to change mood from moment to moment. Hello? That’s totally me. Along with wit, brilliancy, and the description of “the life of the party”, I can’t help but feel I fit into this category. Confidence, not arrogance people, and yes there is a world of difference!
A Gemini is not expected to be constant with their ideas and plans (I always say how indecisive I am, and feel comfortable letting others make choices for me). Geminis are the most difficult to understand, having the affect of being hot and cold within the same moment. I get this. I am this. I have never understood it though. They “lack continuity on purpose.” I get this too. I have a tendency to be my own worst enemy, jeopardizing pieces of my life, without realizing I’m doing it which explains the twin sides of Gemini which perpetually pull in opposite directions. This explains so much you have no idea.
Gemini's are described as human puzzles, while loving passionately, they can be inconstant at the same moment...this describes my 20’s perfectly. My husband, who was born 8 days after me falls into the same horoscope and since his mindset is similar to mine, it helps that we both understand our puzzling ways. Speaking of puzzles though, we do fit together perfectly.
To Gemini's, every moment has a separate existence and they can quickly see the weak points of those they meet, while reducing it all with sarcasm and wit. How very true this is. Cancer sign would say I am easily hurt by the slights of others, but I never felt that described me. While I am intrigued by others thought and opinion of me, I have never let it directly affect my view of myself or disrupt my actions. An overly sensitive Cancer is not me at all, unless I’m in the throes of PMS of course!
Cancer’s are known to be good at accumulating things, but I have no problem tossing out things I don’t need and hate extra stuff lying around. I am also not over-anxious about financial matters, like the Cancers are.
Also, Cancers are described as having a deep love for “their people” and stick firm to family traditions and customs. This is so not me! I blend with all people and can’t stand it when people lack the ability to embrace change and be different. I would rather be my own person and not succumb to the one-track minds of conformity. I do not subscribe to any specific religion and am totally comfortable with changing my mind about all aspects of life. I am a Gemini you see. That’s what they do!
Cancers are very timid and are afraid of refusal. This couldn’t be further from my personality. Difficult to make friends? That is a Cancer, but honey that is not me. I am the social butterfly. I am entertaining. I am delightful. I have wit. I am a Gemini!
If I ever feel shy, intimidated, or unsocial, all I have to do is remember that I am a GEMINI now and that is not what a GEMINI would be like damn it! I am GEMINI hear me roar. RAAAAWWRRR....Hmmm.... maybe I should get a tattoo since I finally feel like I understand myself and can actually breathe a sigh of relief over all this confusion. Thanks to this astrological hiccup I have finally figured out who in the hell I am.
Now that I’m a Gemini my description is versatile, lively,alert, quick-witted,literary,changeable,social, intellectual, and logical. Yesiree, that is me!
