Ruled by Mercury, Geminis are often the life and soul of a party. They love to talk, and their conversation is pretty intelligent and interesting, as well as funny. They have no trouble attracting admirers, but when it comes to commitment, Gemini can be as slippery as an eel. For one, they like variety. For another, they are fanatical about their freedom. Not a good combination for monogamous relationships. They can also be very moody and unpredictable. Insatiably curious, they remind one of butterflies that flit from flower to flower. Being with a Gemini can be a lot of fun, but it can be a bumpy ride as well. If you are the kind who loves to be mentally stimulated, enjoys travel and adventure, and gives a lot of space to your partner, Gemini may be your cup of tea.
Geminis are very creative and excellent at solving problems. Gemini’s symbol is the Twins — which means that they have a dual personality. Being a mutable sign, they are very adaptable. They are great communicators who express their thoughts and feelings with clarity and humor. These highly intelligent and quick-witted people are also known for their kindness and generosity.
Let us check out Gemini’s compatibility with other signs as well as its own.
Gemini and Aries
These two signs are very compatible (being Air and Fire signs), and they also form a friendly sextile, as they are two signs apart. They love to have fun. They will take off on sudden road trips, for instance. A love of adventure and a tendency to get bored easily are a couple of traits they have in common. Both prefer life on the fast lane. Gemini loves the energy of Aries, while Aries loves Gemini’s intelligence and humor. Aries never gets bored of the Twins, as they are always planning something new and exciting. Their relationship never becomes jaded or stale.
Rating: 8/10
Gemini and Taurus
Taurus, a fixed earth sign, has little in common with the Air sign Gemini. The slow and steady pace of Taurus can frustrate Gemini. But they can teach each other many valuable lessons, as they are semi-sextile signs. Taurus can teach Gemini to slow down, while Gemini can help the Bull become more spontaneous and expressive. However, Gemini’s reluctance to commit and their moodiness can put off the Bull. The Bull’s possessiveness can make Gemini run for dear life.

Gemini and Gemini
No one can understand a Gemini better than another Gemini. But given their dual natures, it may feel, at times, that there are four people in the relationship. The pluses are many, though. Conversation flows easily between them. They will understand each other’s need for space and freedom. The downside is that both can be moody and unpredictable, which makes the relationship rather unstable. They may also find it hard to commit. Still, the odds are that they can make it work, provided they don’t feel the need to look elsewhere for stimulation, be it mental, physical, or emotional.
Rating: 7/10
Gemini and Cancer
The energy between these two semisextile signs can be pretty awkward. Cancer is all emotions and sentiments, both of which are rather alien to Gemini. While Cancer seeks emotional security, Gemini seeks intellectual stimulation. Cancer is all heart, and Gemini is all mind. One is a homebody; the other is a party animal. Gemini will feel suffocated around the maternal and caring Crab, while Cancer will feel like they are living with a will-o’-the-wisp. Obviously, a doomed relationship.

Gemini and Leo
Leo and Gemini are sextile, or two signs apart. This is a compatible and friendly pairing. Leo is a sunny and buoyant sign, filled with the zest for life, like Gemini. These two playful signs enjoy each other’s company. Gemini will find Leo’s vanity and love of drama amusing and entertaining. Leo will find Gemini a barrel of laughs. The Lion will floor the Twins with their grand and flamboyant gestures. Gemini amazes Leo with their brilliance and joie de vivre.

Gemini and Virgo
Virgo is three signs apart from Gemini, which is a problematic angle. Both share the same planetary ruler. But apart from their intellectual abilities, they have very little in common. Virgo is disciplined and practical, while Gemini is unpredictable and creative. Being mutable signs, they are both very adaptable but tend to be indecisive. Virgo will drive Gemini mad with their perfectionism and nitpicking, while Gemini may shock the prudish Virgo with their free-wheeling approach. They can be good friends due to the influence of Mercury, but little more.
Rating: 5/10
Gemini and Libra
Libra is four signs apart from Gemini. This is a very harmonious angle in terms of astrological compatibility. Both are social butterflies who enjoy stimulating conversation, meeting new people, and going on adventures. They also have a creative streak and prefer lighthearted romance to intense relationships. They are very style-conscious as well and like to follow the latest trends. Theirs is a breezy kind of love, filled with playfulness and laughter rather than heavy-duty emotion and passion. They give each other space and freedom.
Rating: 9/10
Gemini and Scorpio
Scorpio is five signs apart from Gemini, which is a very challenging angle for compatibility. The main problem lies in their approach to love. Even in love, Gemini yearns to be free. But Scorpio gives completely of themselves in a relationship and expects the same of their partner. It’s all or nothing for them. Gemini will make Scorpio insanely jealous with their flirtations. Scorpio will frighten Gemini with their passion and intensity. The sex may be out of this world for both, but it takes more than physical intimacy to hold on to Gemini.
Rating: 3/10
Gemini and Sagittarius
Sagittarius and Gemini are opposite signs and lie six signs apart from each other. A love of freedom and adventure brings this couple together. They also seek knowledge and new experiences. They are like two children determined to get the most out of life. They are both funny, Gemini in an intellectual way and Sagittarius in a slapstick way. If they decide to host a party, the whole town will want to be invited, such is the fun quotient of this duo. The only glitch is that their fear of commitment may come in the way of a permanent union.
Rating: 8/10
Gemini and Capricorn
Capricorn is five signs apart from Gemini, which does not augur well for a good relationship. Capricorn is all about ambition and discipline. They love to plan and organize. Gemini feels exhausted by Capricorn’s meticulous planning and goal-setting. Gemini prefers to live in the present moment. The Goat’s workaholic nature will not impress Gemini, who believes that life is to be enjoyed. Gemini loves to mingle, and Capricorn loves solitude as it is ruled by Saturn. The Goat will disapprove of the Twins’ casual approach to life and relationships. Their values are too different to build a bridge upon.
Rating: 3/10
Gemini and Aquarius
Aquarius is trine (four signs apart) with Gemini. This is a highly compatible pairing. Both are intellectual and humanitarian. However, the Water Bearer is not as sociable as the Twins. Both are unconventional in their approach to life. Also, Gemini is more into exploring the world and all that it has to offer, while Aquarius wants to change the world. Gemini may not share their activism that much, as they dislike seriousness. Aquarius can get frustrated by Gemini’s inability to feel deeply. But at the same time, they appreciate the lightness which Gemini brings to their life. This couple also understands each other’s need for freedom.
Rating: 8/10
Gemini and Pisces
Pisces is three signs apart from Gemini, and a Water sign. As they are both mutable, they may find it hard to make up their minds about anything. Pisces is very intuitive, imaginative, and empathic. Gemini is more rational and intellectual, so communication can be an issue here. Gemini finds Pisces’ emotions hard to deal with. Pisces feels that Gemini is not as invested in the relationship as they are and goes into a depression. It doesn’t help that both have moody spells.

Conclusion
Sun and Moon signs give a general idea about compatibility. To see the whole picture, one needs to look at other aspects in the natal chart, too. Consulting a professional astrologer will throw more light on your compatibility with your partner.
