Mithuna (Gemini)

Mithuna (Gemini) rising

With Mithuna rising you are tall and straight, with long arms and hands, a long nose and a quick, sharp look; you walk fast and look younger than your years. Budh (Mercury) rules your lagna and the sign is airy and dual: you live in the mind, reading, writing, talking and questioning, and you learn fast, remember well and adapt to people with ease. You can advise, persuade and explain better than you can command, and you may well run two occupations at once. The same restlessness spreads your energy over too many things, leaves work unfinished and makes you worry more than you need; one thing at a time is your discipline. Life brings frequent short journeys, many contacts, and both plenty and privation, and you rise slowly, by skill and good backing, rather than in one leap.

The Moon in Mithuna (Gemini)

Chandra in Mithuna gives a bright, curious, talkative mind that wants variety and news: you think by talking, pick up languages and skills quickly, and are good company. Feelings are run by the head more than the heart, and the mind scatters or frets when it has too many open threads; a settled routine steadies it.

The Sun in Mithuna (Gemini)

Surya in Mithuna: the self shines through intellect, speech and trade rather than force; you are versatile, and authority comes to you as the one who knows and explains.
