The sign of Gemini is given some of it’s deep meaning in Alice Bailey’s Esoteric Astrology first published by Lucis Press in 1951. In it she says that Gemini is one of the most important of the 12 signs and its’ influence lies behind every one of them. She claims the reconciliation of all of the opposites is inherent in the airy triplicity and through the sign of Gemini we recognize the duality principle of for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction as well as all the dualities. Gemini is also the constellation through which the Cosmic Love of God principle is channeled to this solar system. Mercury being assigned by the Ancients to the sign as its’ ruler further indicates the brain/mind in the human organism and esoteric ideas from the Tibetan who channeled to Bailey further illuminates our mental constructs. Bailey also says that Gemini represents the Heart of the sun. Ever notice how solar flares on the sun’s surface disrupt communications on the Earth’s surface. Well, it goes deeper than that as the connection between the sun and the electromagnetic field of the earth ( and all of the other planets for that matter ) is filtered ( if you will ) through the orbit of Mercury, the ruler and mediator of Gemini. The pillars of Hercules, Jachin and Boaz the initiates,are represented in the Glyph for Gemini and the spirit of the Watcher on the Threshold is a Geminian essence. Relatedness as in this is related to that is Geminian. All of these concepts are primal and therefore foundational and thus Gemini is called the First or Primitive or primal sign. It is also referred to as the sign of the divine messenger which is another Mercurial association. Through the sign of Gemini many of the world prophets appear. The Messenger of the Gods, if you will, have the attributes of accuracy, clarity, succinctness, memory and speed. There is no emotion at this level just the stillness associated with the presence of the Word. In conclusion, for I could go on and on, Gemini is not shallow and as a counterpoint to the galactic center found in Sagittarius, the sign is one of the pillars of the galactic consciousness within which humanity has and is developing.

Time to take a look at Gemini! Then look again at Gemini from a different angle! Twins! Get IT! LOL!

This is the primal air sign and within it’s symbolics lies a deep understanding of the human neural chemical network, or as we moderns like to call it the hard wiring. The air element implies a connecting , buffering layer between the fire and earth elements or if you will a mediator between the two externally. Internally it is the precise balance of tiny amounts of atmosphere ( watch out for that word) which separate and regulate the two. This balance is a form of communication which enables the two elements to exist in proximity without consuming or stifling one or the other. This form of regulation exists in all mass. For instance, it is the ” Glue ” which maintains the integrity within the organic forms of life and gives shape to those forms, to all forms. Communication on one hand and ritual on the other. Same thing two views! Gemini! What is it which differentiates a stomach cell from a heart cell in a living organism? How does a stomach cell “know” it is a stomach cell and not a heart cell? Communication and ritual! The regulating principles are symbolized by the dual principle. Duality! Order on one hand Chaos on the other. Modern physics is now discovering the order in Chaos and the chaos in the order. Sounds like the Chinese principles of Yin and Yang. Doesn’t it! However don’t oversimplify this construct. Don’t be shallow! This is foundational,primal knowledge. Nothing superficial here. The Gemini personality is often considered shallow or superficial skimming the surface and lacking real depth. Well, maybe, not really.  Fact finding always has a hidden agenda a deeper cause than what it would seem to an outside observer. There is ALWAYS another side to consider. Maybe it should be said that Gemini can easily reflect the superficial thus concealing the deeper meaning. Ask a researcher how many false leads she has followed to a dead end before the path way through was discovered. The Gemini personality is very clever at mind games, puzzles and surface mechanics, at psyching out the way things are put together. Part two is coming up!
