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. If you can give a Gemini good communication,
social interchanges and a variety of life experience, then you have a better
chance of getting their love and affection. If you can give a Scorpio loyalty,
control and deep understanding you have a better chance of getting their love
and affection.
Gemini is essentially articulate, versatile and adroit. Put another way, Gemini
likes variety. Gemini is an idea person. Scorpio is a strong individual, an
extremely good friend, a formidable enemy, and prone to intense likes and
dislikes. Scorpio lives in the world of black and white. Scorpio has little time
for superficial people, places or things. Light-hearted Gemini, an Air Sign, has
a broad range of interests and prefers to pick and choose between them, skipping
lightly from one to the other as the fancy calls. You have a wide circle of
friends and are often found with your ear glued to the phone, because you love
to be up on all the gossip. In relationships you prefer the entertaining, chatty
variety, though this is not to say that you are not interested in sex. It's just
that you prefer a casual, circuitous approach. You enjoy the pleasures of the
chase, then discussing the intimate details, rather than obsessing about the
actual bumps and grinds. Scorpio on the other hand prefers to aim straight for
the heart of the relationship, glorying in the internal storms of passion and
soul-searching. Demanding Scorpio is very much into one-on-one (though you no
doubt could interest the scorpion in a little ménage a trios, if you painted a
lovely word picture of the likely pleasures).
Gemini's mind naturally likes to go from subject to subject. Gemini has varied
interests and likes to keep up with what's going on in the world. Gemini can be
the original "quick study" who grasps facts, concepts and ideas. On the other
hand, Gemini can get bored easily and do not like things to drag along, prefers
deep commitment, deep conversation and deep thoughts. If Scorpio can't tell it
like it is, Scorpio prefers to keep quiet. 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.
It should be mentioned that Scorpio has quite a few secrets. Scorpio has
forgiveness issues that tend to make personal relationships challenging. People
whisper about Scorpio's sex life. They dare to include Scorpio in their most
passionate fantasies. At times, Scorpio may feel like Gemini has not one, but at
least two different personality sides. In the relationship between Gemini and
Scorpio adjustment is the key. You both need to give more than you get. This
association requires extra sensitivity. At first, each may be somewhat irritated
about each other. In time, with work, the very thing that caused the irritation
may lead to personal fulfilment. You can't force growth in this alliance- go
along with the changes. To beat the odds, change your routines. Scorpio, a Water
Sign, is ruled by forceful Mars, God of War and seething Pluto, Lord of the
Underworld, while Airy Gemini is ruled by communicative Mercury, the Divine
Messenger. Your fertile imagination and Scorpio's dynamic energy would make a
good combination, if only the two of you saw eye to eye about anything. Flames
of passion blaze in the bedroom at first, but you soon learn that sex isn't
everything. Your Scorpio lover is sensual, passionate, jealous and inflexible.
You on the other hand are fickle, flighty, superficial, light-hearted and
changeable. Gemini is a social creature, but Scorpio prefers privacy. Scorpio is
suspicious, even vengeful, and will be in constant turmoil over your casual,
playful attitude to love. With Scorpio everything is happening below the
surface, making it difficult to know what is really going on there. This sort of
thing is just not on with Gemini, for you much prefer full and frank disclosure
(or at least one of the Twins does: the other might well be attending to other
business!)
Gemini needs open lines of communication. The best friends for Gemini are the
ones who appreciate Gemini's sense of humour. Scorpio has proven the ability to
hold on. Scorpio's staying power is second to none. Now Scorpio needs to learn
to let go. Every day Scorpio needs to find something to sell, give away, throw
out or burn. If Scorpio wants to get the most out of life, Scorpio needs to let
go of the old. 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.
Scorpio is a Fixed Sign, so in one way the stability and strength of the
Scorpion appeals to Gemini. This said, you'll find it hard to come to terms with
Scorpio's air of mystery and with that self-contained area which is very much a
no-go zone for you. Scorpio can seethe for days before erupting like a volcano,
whereas you will get cross and sarcastic, but soon move on to the next item of
news. Scorpio has to learn that you cannot be kept like a bird in a cage, or at
the first opportunity, you'll fly the coop. Bear in mind that Scorpio is
secretive and likes to manipulate, though you prefer to lay your cards on the
table. Scorpio is just so darned deep! This, despite the attraction, is not an
easy match.
