Does this phrase make sense to the Gemini?

"See, you took my kindness for weakness! Now that I'm whipping your ass you wanna call me crazy!!"

Just curious.

Make sense? I might as well wear it on a t-shirt! This is me every day!

i'll take a t-shirt too, if your handing them out Whimsy. lol!

Fudge yeah

give me a 3x t shirt. dat way i can show ppl jus how much we really care 🙂

pass out the shirts! It pisses me off when people
mistake my kind nature for weakness,& I find that
people are shocked to see the bad side of me!

LOL - Just happened upon this site, and liked this post so much that I had to register just so I could get the flippin' T-shirt!

HaHaHaHa!!! Does this mean you're a Gem In I?

Gem sun, with Merc & Mars in Gem as well. Yeah, I'm Gem, through and through. Sag moon, Leo ascendant. 😉

I see. You must drive people nuts (In a good way)!! 🙂

People?! Man, I can drive myself nuts with what my mother termed "mental gymnastics". Her, I drove absolutely bonkers!

Funny thing though, I have more earth and water in my chart than air and fire, so I tend to be more grounded than some of my Gem friends. When Merc goes retrograde though, my head can turn into a merry-go-round if I don't watch it :p

You sound like you could be my twin. Your mom didn't Earth sign, did she?

Mom was Cancer. Just like the crab, she would try to hide from anything that was difficult physically or emotionally, or at the very least try to skirt her way around it. She might observe, but she was terrible about confronting anything hard. Me being me, I'd just grab her by her damned shell and make her face up. From the time I was 6 or 7 we were always grinding gears because of this.

Right before she died, she finally realized this and said to me, "The root of all our conflict is that I run and hide from the hard sh*t, and you....YOU face it head on with your eyes wide open and you wanted me to do the same." Well, yeah...most kids DO want at least one parent who isn't addicted and actually cares about their well-being! LOL Even though we fought like cats and dogs, I loved her immensely and still miss her terribly.

Yeah, I can dig it! That's Cancer for you. But, at least she was blessed to have you in her life as well as her in yours. Funny, how it works out that way. You both grew. My mother's a Virgo. YIKES!! We speak the same lingo from a Mercury standpoint. But, to me structure is for losers. Just saying. I mean, what people THINK structure is I just buy it. My mother has come to grips with this finally, and has started to loosen up a bit.

But, I personally feel that we Gems might be in the running for the strongest signs in the zodiac. Like you stated, we face the hard shit head on. Tis true Milady, tis true! But, Gemini's tend to wear the black eye for what other people did to them. But, we tend to wear it. But, will dish out a few as well. Then people be like...."What the fuh—"

Wow - that would explain the dark circles under my eyes most days!

You know, I get teased a lot, and usually in a degrading manner. I swear the juxtaposition of my small stature and big personality have something to do with it. Most of the time, I just let it roll off my back like so much water. However, if the same person/people do it too often, it begins to feel like a bloody knife in my back.

But God forbid I should show any hurt or anger about it, because if I do, those same people are flabbergasted that I had the audacity to show any emotion about it at all! Keep in mind, these are the same people that get on my case for not being in touch with my emotions or not sensitive enough!! {:-\ And they accuse us Gems of inconsistency... Pffffftttt. Truth be told, I'm extremely consistent in how I handle these jokers - I have an inordinate amount of patience, but once it runs out, I can and will verbally shred to ribbons anyone dumb enough to think I don't hurt and bleed same as them.

Gemini sun = gift of eloquence.
Leo rising = the lioness's survival & kill instinct.
Combine the two and observe a woman with a razor-blade smile whose words will cut with lightning speed and surgical precision. I may very well have a black eye or two, but I won't be the one bleeding all over the carpet! It's a rare thing to irk me to that point though - most of them aren't worth wasting my energy on. 😉~

The statement you made about structure is right on the money, honey. I honestly think most people put too much stock in the concept altogether. I mean, REALLY? To me, structure too often translates into stagnant rut. Frankly, I think structure is more for those whose minds can't process, analyze, and assimilate new information as fast as most Gems I know. They would need the walls and barriers that structure provides in order to have enough time to do what we do without having to think about it! Just sayin'.

See, you found a home. I have a Leo rising too. That's the only fire I have in my chart. But, that Lion is a monster! Plus, being from Chicago gives me the mindset of destroying all that don't get "It". Because, as you know there's something to actually "get"!

Alas, Mercury is on the prowl, noob! LoL! So, Pollux has taken over, whilst Castor is hibernating. Oh Damn! It's getting mental, isn't it?

Let that shit off of your chest sweets! At least you know that half of "us" speak for the Divine. It just pisses us off that only a select few listen. Let alone are paying attention. GRRRRRRR!!!!!! I put a thread up that pertains to my Gemini sistas! What shall you do?

Much Love & Respect,

This is hair-raising!

Just looked at your profile and chart....yeah, we're damn-near twins. All planets in same signs except Moon & Merc. All house signs the same except house 6 & 12 too! No wonder your posts intrigue me so - you are pulling thoughts and observations straight out of MY head!

😉~

I have a question.......but, I think I'll hold on to that one for now. But, we can feel really alone at times, can't we?

Alone doesn't even begin to describe what I feel when those times hit - and I don't know that there is a word in our language that would. All I can say is that writing my way through those times is the only thing that has helped. I've tried talking to close friends when I feel that way, but they never quite grasp the depth and breadth of my alone-ness. (Sorry, but the word 'loneliness' doesn't cut it either. Loneliness describes a feeling, whereas Alone-ness describes a state of being.)

I think you have to be a Gem, with certain planetary/house placements, to really comprehend the feeling. I've talked to some Gems who can sympathize but say they don't ever feel this way. But, I have an Aqua friend and a Libra friend who DO get it, but we three agree that when this feeling hits, our words escape up, and alienate us from each other even further. We can only talk about it when we're not "IN" it! Quite the conundrum, yes?

I don't want a t shirt. I just wanna whip that ass!

lol I'm not sure if I have had any incidents where whipping the ass was necessary 😆 but yeah I have been called weak because I was too nice to people.

Hmm can someone describe the alone-ness?

I can definately relate to the state of 'alone-ness' lol. Oooo yeaaaa!!! I know it all too well and your right NO ONE understands and I dont bother to speak to close friends about it because 1. I see it as pointless they wont understand and will probably sit there with a blank look on their face thinking wtf has gotten into her shes being a weirdo 2. they'll think im a crazy psychotic weirdo whos depressed and wants to die and 3. they wont get deep enough into the convo for me to express myself and again they just wouldnt understand.

And to be honest, I dont trust anyone enough to be able to open up that deeply and discuss those types of heavy feelings with. Only person I can discuss it with is myself. It just such a dark ugly side I wont want anyone to know about.

Maybe I should give writing a go.

writing does help & my sister writes poetry and she's a gem too
it helps her alot.she posts hers on lulu poetry

Oh then I definitely understand the alone-ness feeling. Thanks LibraLuv 🙂 Ah I don't try to make sense of it. It is what it is. 😄

Girlfriend, you said it!! T shirt baby, T shirt!

LOL! Eat your words Sunnygirl! eat them right now!!

😛

GeminiMind is as macho as a gem male can get!!! He'd do some "mental gymnastics" (borrowed it from your mom, Netgline 😄) and twist you like a pretzel for what you've unknowingly called him 😛😛

Uh oh, exit, stage left...
Naah I'm sure a true Gemini knows when to laugh at herself...er, himself.

Honest mistake Sultanaa. I ain't mad at her. 😉

Wow I am just now seeing this thread. I'm a Gemini with Leo rising too. No wonder GeminiMind and Nethligne posts were sounding so familiar!
