according to this, most of our life's journey will be spent learning to work with our twin nature. it is our emotions that can help bridge the gap between our twins. there is a mortal and an immortal world. it's so we don't get stuck souly in only one of those worlds. we have to find a balance between the two.

personally, i pay much attention to my emotions. i've learned that it's my emotions that hold the intuitional part of me. which is something i've learned to never ignore.

just thought i would share what i've found.

There's no doubt that Gems dwell in two realms .... and I think this is why they get so upset when faced with it.


It's like .. one twin will react to a situation in which the other twin is appalled by their reaction .. and so, since they have to live together, the reaction becomes defensive, in trying to protect the other, who has no filtering system.

I can clearly relate to this for Pisces also dwells in two realms ... big difference though ... Gems realms are disconnected, like twins fetus's that seperated .. while Pisces are like conjoined twins, the realms are so melded together that sometimes it's hard to tell the difference.



And I agree .... emotions are key. To just be aware of this isn't good enough to find a bridge. And this is something I see that is in error with Gemini's ... they will say that they have the awareness of present that emotional control is the answer to find this balance with The Twins ... but, then not be able to exercise it, when one twin goes into shadow while the other emerges.

A Gem could be sweet as Apple Pie ... and then be mean as a Rattle Snake within a split second ... and just because the Gem has this awareness of presence, doesn't = control.


I have a Gem friend who has figured out how to control it ..... she asks all the time .. "why" .... "what did I do to make you so upset with me", and she writes it down .. when other twin rises, she forces herself to acknowledge what she wrote.

Pisces struggle the same condition ... only reversed, and with them too, having understanding of "why" it's exists, not that "just" it exists ..... is our answer.

thank you P-Angel, for letting me find out on my own. i understand now. 😄

if i didn't find the "why" on my own, i probably would have never found it. plus, i realize i need to do the work on finding out "why" on my own. not someone else just "giving" me the answer. nothing comes easy and nothing is worth it without the work.

i agree with everything you said, but i would like to add to the, "A Gem could be sweet as Apple Pie ... and then be mean as a Rattle Snake".

we have to remember that we can be sweet as apple pie, but not to be SO sweet that we are just walked all over, and that we can be rattle snakes, just don't bite someone's head off. i think that's where the emotional control comes into play. most of the time i remember this, but there are times where i'm at fault too.

"I have a Gem friend who has figured out how to control it ..... she asks all the time .. "why" .... "what did I do to make you so upset with me", and she writes it down .. when other twin rises, she forces herself to acknowledge what she wrote."

i think ^^THIS^^ is an excellent idea!!

I think this is a very good assessment. It's the biggest thing I've had to struggle with in my quest to be more open with people.

I've had to realize that even though the emotional responses that I have aren't always logical, it's still important to acknowledge them. I found myself repressing them a lot because I can't stand that it sometimes has no basis in reason. I normally don't let my emotional responses dictate my actions, but I can acknowledge that this isn't the case with everyone.

Learning to deal with this in myself has helped me to recognize and be less dismissive of purely emotional responses in other people.

I didn't know there was ever a gap,lol...
Actually I believe us Gem's are like Libra's
in that we can see both sides of a situation
very well,and possibly even another side?
Many may think we are two faced because we
don't always agree with what another person
thinks about another person,even if it's a
good friend,we don't always agree if we think
they might be mistaken so it may seem as though
we are siding with their enemy when actually
we're just trying to get at what we believe is
the truth,ect....
My twin is my more frisky,flirtatious,Sexual &
seductive side & my normal self is more like the
sweet librarian book work whose busy with her
nose in a book or doing something that has all
her attention & focus until forced to look up
by a shiney object that steals her attention
off of what she was doing,lol.... Like a sexy
male ram charger,lol....
If we like that Ram,my twin comes out & likes
to play,lol...

I feel perfectly balanced most of the time.
I think my twin loves me & likes me alot,lol...
But she can get us in alot of trouble with
the men sometimes,lol....
We are flirty but to us it's more like Friendly,
lol... Thats true though,people tell me I flirt
but I don't see it this way,but anyway,it can
cause some issues,ect....
Now that I know I appear like I flirt,I watch
myself more carefully,but really,I am just
a very friendly person but unlike some signs,
& don't let it get too far cause I love my
Aries Baby & I wouldn't do anything that
would ever bring a tear to his eyes!
