Happy Birthday, Gemini! Although you're officially a Gemini, you were born on the cusp of Gemini and Cancer, giving you attributes of both signs and making you a fascinating character. You’re equal parts warmth and avoidance, creating an elusive, unattainable aura. Maybe that’s because you refuse to allow anyone to be your master. You will not be owned, controlled or dominated - unless you’re in the mood. Your voice is distinctive and may be earthy and seductive. Your accent and pitch may also be unique. Although you do your best to appear calm and confident, you often tremble with anticipation, wondering if you’re up to the task at hand. Amazingly versatile and original, you defy one-note descriptions. Even people who claim to know you well may only recognize your top layer. Soulful, imaginative and capable of volcanic passion, you feel things excruciatingly deeply. You may appear to breeze through difficult times, but each struggle leaves permanent tattoos on your soul. You learn from experience and have a very long memory. Once someone betrays you, they’re done. You are sophisticated and accepting of others’ eccentricities - as long as they’re not married or related to you. Once you’re emotionally bonded to someone, different rules apply. You view home, family and truth as being extremely serious subjects - life and death subjects, actually. One of the worst things anyone can accuse you of is being untrue or unethical. Your integrity and authenticity are badges of honor. During the first part of your life, you may rely heavily on your attractive physicality. As you mature, deeper mysteries claim the lion’s share of your interest, urging you to explore belief systems, history, politics and law. You have enormous power to do good work and inspire others to raise themselves up several notches. You make an excellent teacher, mentor and counselor. Your closest friends marvel at your depth and may remark that the longer they know you, the more there is to discover.
