Here we have two signs ruled by the same planet, Mercury.  They are both mutable and adaptable to changing circumstances.  However, their elements differ considerably.  Gemini is air, Virgo is earth.  So we have methodical Virgo connecting with the less detailed energy of Gemini.

Let’s consider their mutual ruling planet Mercury.  This pulls in anything mental for both signs.  The thought process, the mind.  Both are intelligent but have different styles of expressing.  Gemini can drive Virgo up the wall with interruptions or not giving specific answers.  This Gemini trait is due to a more scattered changeable nature. 

Virgo is exacting and precise and misunderstandings can be frequent occurrences between them. Gemini can come up with great ideas, but Virgo will have to implement them.  Virgo will see them through to the bitter end.  Not to worry, Virgo will get the job done. Virgo possesses the necessary patience it takes that Gemini may lack.

Romantically speaking, Gemini takes affairs in stride with a fickle flirtatious nature.  Virgo is prudent, being extremely fussy and particular when choosing a mate.  Often the flirtatious type does not appeal to Virgo.  Virgo knows exactly what type of individual they want and will not become involved with superficial searching.  Gemini, on the other hand, may jump from one to the next, becoming bored easily, when not kept interested.  This can create problems for the more serious minded Virgo.

There is a great deal of nervous energy experienced by both of these signs. Virgo has a need to repeat and clarify everything, categorizing and organizing.  Gemini says or does something once and it is forgotten or dismissed.  Virgo can be a real floor-pacer.  Gemini is more of a nail biter.  Both signs tend to be nervous types, or worry warts, and both may need to learn to relax more often.  Taking frequent deep breaths, soft music and a calmer atmosphere can be of tremendous help to both of them. 

Gemini can dismiss working around clutter, never giving it a second thought.  Virgo must have everything in its place or else they can’t operate effectively.  If you live together, Virgo may tire of always having to clean up after Gemini, but will do it anyway because they love to clean and fuss.  When Virgo is upset, they clean, straighten or organize, giving themselves work projects to relax by.  Remember, Gemini is playful and Virgo is prudent.  Are they compatible enough to make it work? You’ll have to analyze this pair a bit more!
