Work - Communication, computer training, journalism, media, reporters, sales people, teaching.

Leisure Times - Travel to new destinations, discovering new places, archeology, massage, sewing.

Love & Relationships - Needs a partner that will be intellectual and stimulating on all levels, otherwise the Gemini may become bored. Ho-hum. If their partner accepts the lively Gemini then a relationship will flow.

HEALTH
