Gemini “I Think, Therefore I Am” Motivated by mental curiosity and movement, Gemini  experiences life through relatedness. Relationships is the bases from which it works as an agent of harmony. It is primary concern is connectedness, teaching us that mutual harmony can exist through “a middle way.” In the early development of Gemini the instinctual mind is in charge and a subjective view of life is experienced. This subjectivity creates a polarized thinking mind, seeing life from a filter of duality. Its only interest is how everything relates to oneself. At this level Gemini moves with no direct purpose or plan and a sense of scattered and ungrounded energy is how it navigates the world. But as Gemini begins to build its “self”, its orientation shifts beyond the subjective mind to a more objective view of life. A greater awareness of others begins to form and an understanding that relationships are a shared interchange to connection.   Gemini...

“The soul is the Middle Way as it stands between and mediates the primary polarity of life: Spirit and matter. The Soul therefore acts as an intermediary between the Essence of Life and its various forms of manifestations. Thus Soul provides the necessary channels through which consciousness may exteriorize and we may come to know ourselves. The grace of this knowing is that in the process, each of us comes to identify ourselves eventually as Divinity in manifestation. We learn this through the frequently painful process of transformation. We thus grow and develop until we finally realize that the quality of our consciousness, of our Soul, is Love.” –A.Q. Pisces Two fish connected by a cord facing opposite directions symbolizes the sign of Pisces.   Both of these representations signify the duality of the separation of the soul and the personality.
