Setting goals is exciting. Meeting them can sometimes be difficult, simply because you set those goals so high, it’s unlikely that you will be able to achieve them. Yet you keep trying. That is one of the gifts as a Gemini—your inquisitiveness. You’ll take a chance, just for the fun of it, to see what happens. There is no better approach to the new, unfamiliar, and exciting than that.
With family and friends, you speak in a kind of shorthand. But a heart-to-heart is vital, too
As a Gemini, you were born under one of the cleverest and most versatile signs. You rarely think about this until you’re talking to somebody who has no imagination. While usually your inquisitiveness is a gift, it can also mean that when you need to focus or make decisions, you’re drawn into exploring other possibilities: some very real and worthwhile.
But more often than not, pressures on time or practicalities mean you’ve got to stick with one particular plan. This isn’t just annoying, it can be frustrating, especially if you have other ideas. Learn to recognize when it’s not about doing more, it is about moving on. For you, remembering that is crucial; it is the difference between struggling or accepting things as they are. Challenging as this is, once you’ve learned this, you’ll also have learned how to sidestep other frequent struggles in your life, all of which have to do with settling on a plan, decision, or commitment, acknowledging that, then firmly moving on.
You will then discover that there is a bridge to the next thing to do, the next plan, project, or encounter. The trick is to hurl yourself into whatever is next, knowing that there will be new discussions and discoveries. And new decisions. Those exciting moments appear regularly. The trick is to be free from the past, and ready to embrace the future.
Relationships can be both tricky and deeply nourishing. Those you get to know over time become trusted friends, people you talk things over with. Yet sometimes it is vital to discuss things less and venture out more. You have known certain people for so long, there are no surprises. Balance is key. Sustain long-standing links, while you are exploring new ones.
You don’t think of yourself as extreme. This applies to how you eat and take care of yourself. In fact, when you are stressed, it’s likely that you’ll embrace a strict routine, when thinking will clarify your mind. Yet if ever there was a time to be kind to yourself, it’s then. Being kind to yourself is the best approach to any challenge.

The time has come to do your math. And this doesn’t just refer to who owes what to whom. It is about the effort you’ve made on behalf of certain individuals. While some acknowledge what you’ve done and a few try to return the favor, amazingly, others just seem to take it for granted.
