ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I’m a Sagittarius dating a Gemini. Will it work?"
Gemini is a restless breed, and it loves to come and go. It constantly talks on the phone and conjures up its next scheme. The amazing thing about Gemini – and perhaps this explains its dual nature – is that it can shift its attention rapidly between two simultaneous activities or relationships. Just make sure that if fidelity is important to you, Gemini plays by your rules. What it’s looking for are people who can reflect a different part of Gemini’s personality. Gemini has an intellectual side, and it seeks people whom it can either teach or learn from. Gemini uses its powerful intellect to categorize its encyclopedic knowledge. The problem, however, is that Gemini often doesn’t know what it all means or asks itself where it’s headed. In order to do this, it must learn to think like a Sagittarius. This means learning to trust its intuition and search for the larger meaning of life. Without wisdom, Gemini is prone to scattering its energy to the winds. Once Gemini begins to synthesize its knowledge into a meaningful whole, it will find the happiness it seeks. You truly have a lot to teach this energetic sing, and you will ignite your own passion for knowledge in the process.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Beautiful actress and model Heather Graham is a fine example of Aquarius’ light and magical charisma. With plenty of air-sign influences in her chart, she doesn’t take life, or herself, too seriously. Graham has the ability to dream up wild adventures because of her innate ability to let go and be free. It’s no wonder she’s the symbol of freedom in Lenny Kravitz’s "American Woman" video.
