Venus in Gemini : cerebral affectivity
This is a very airy sign for Venus to be in, as it’s quite close to the planet’s domicile, Libra (see Rulerships), so its energy is quite volatile, sociable, and effervescent.
With Venus in Gemini, attraction often starts with intellectual affinity, with just the right words being used, with beautiful writing, and with eloquence. The cerebral side of these people is more directly accessible than the emotions in their heart.
Here, in this sign ruled by Mercury, Venus in Gemini people are probably the most cerebral out of anyone in the zodiac; they have the deepest connections to intellect, the allure of the mind, and the ways in which all of these things interact.
These people have a true need for communication and emotional exchange. They are very eclectic in terms of what they assign value to; that is, they have a broad perception of things, they are very versatile and not at all exclusive, they are very eager to experiment, and they try to embrace a very wide range of things to get an idea of what they like and what they do not like. They are also very playful, impish, and ingenuous, and easily connect with people, flirting with and seducing others as they go about their lives.
Because they are dominated by air, they are also elusive and like their freedom. They reject limitations and confinement, and they often have a tendency to get out of relationships that become “too serious”, too intense, or boring. They are constantly searching for originality and stimulation, and they want to be perpetually surprised and surrounded by change. To them, love rhymes with light and casual. They have a tendency to repress heavier, more complex sentimental questions, and focus on fully experiencing the more “fun” parts of life.
Others often find these people to be difficult to follow : their opinions and feelings frequently change from one day to the next, so much so that other people do not always know where they stand with them. They need variety and entertainment in their lives, and their expectations are often quite changeable; they themselves are well aware of this.
So, now you know what to expect and how to seduce someone with Venus in Gemini : first stimulate their intellect, then let them go free to flutter about and do their own thing, provide them with distractions, make them laugh, respect their social nature and their need to always be outgoing, pique their curiosity, and accept their frequent passing fancies, which are part of their personality. Also be patient, despite everything, because these people are often afraid to engage in serious matters of the heart and prefer instead to keep a safe distance in terms of love and emotions.
Artistically speaking, Venus in Gemini people really like literature, journalism, and radio, and also theater, or anything that stimulates their intellect or discussions with other people. They like art that expresses things in a bright, vivid, lively, expressive, and demonstrative way.
Financially, they are not especially keen on accumulating possessions in the way that Taurus is, but their curiosity and their never-ending need for novelty can lead them to be consumeristic. They may enjoy the excitement of shopping and learning about current trends in fashion, though they generally do not get very attached to these trends.
Venus retrograde in Gemini
Retrograde motion often leads Venus in Gemini people to be less sociable and more introverted, and thus more like a Venus in Virgo person, for example. They may tend to internalize things that are related to love to an extreme degree, repress them, and be generally more cerebral, but their affectivity is not any less extremely sensitive and vulnerable even though they try to appear detached.
