Scorpio and Gemini - can it work?!

This topic was created in the Gemini and Scorpio Compatibility forum by RollergirlOrc on Friday, June 20, 2014 and has 34 replies.
Any scorps here have experience with Gemini. How did you make it work? If so, are your innermost needs fulfilled between the two?









Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are Gemini Scorpio test subjects. I think we know how that's gonna end according to Astrotheme their comparability is about 58% astrologically. Meanwhile Beyonce and Jay-z's is like 94 percent. Interesting case rare Virgo Sag combo.
Kim k is Libra, kanye is Gemini, they'll go swimmingly according to astrology.
@GG good point, its better to try but I'm just wondering if people have tried and made it work. Also how to communicate and reconcile our ways of communicating. With certain signs, it was seamless and pretty intuitive.
Yeah...no. I also wouldn't repeat the experience. Gemini is way too wishy-washy for me. Never know exactly what they want. You won't be getting 100% from them. They're free spirits and Scorpio comes off as too possessive and intense for them.

Scorp and Gemini are quincunx...just don't get each other
I wonder how the deep and intense Scorp could ever make it work with the light and flighty Gemini

Seems like a recipe for disaster somehow


It's isn't really. Mainly because of this:

The Moon sign and aspects are more important than anything.

Basically... this will take work no matter what. Communication is key to this. And both communicate differently.
Most importantly, it depends on if the Gemini has gone through their experience phase... Once they get through that and have settled into themselves, they can be great loyal companions.
BUT, Scorpio has to realize that Gemini will always have two loves. One will be the Scorpio and the other will be whatever hobby or passion they have. So the Scorpio will never get 100% .
The Gemini has to be willing to stick it through the hard parts and being honest and forthcoming.

Gemini and scorpio pfffffffff thats the worst combination, gemini is not loyal as scorpio
The similar outcome as a Libra male with Cancer woman.
Air vs water. Will take work and depending on other factors.
Not ideal but who knows................

Why do people say this when it's not true?
Personally I find Gemini very attractive. Witty, intelligent, bright-eyed, and with that ever-crackling energy. But I could never keep up with all of that do-everything-at-once and then still find more to do. I'm Scorpio/Virgo/Pisces. I wouldn't mind in the slightest watching Gemini do all of the Gemini things though, and me sitting back and just keeping company. Gemini is quirky and cute.
Probably a big thing to watch out for is some Gemini's tendency to, due to its dual-nature: wake up one morning, wonder why you're there and doing that thing and being with those people, and flee. Two weeks later it hits you, oh yeah THAT'S why I was there in that life and loving those people, and then you want to go back.
Scorpio in general has trust issues and abandonment issues and jealousy and possessiveness and difficulty forgiving when any of these red flags are triggered. So on Scorpio's end, he/she must know about this (possible) trait and be agreeable to it and understanding of it before going into a relationship. Scorpio also needs to know that he/she will be #1, yet not #1. As porcelainrising said, Gemini has two (sometimes more) loves. These two don't have to both be people, and usually aren't, but there has to be more than one thing to love for Gemini to feel alive. Gemini will return to you in time.
Gemini's loyalty increases when Scorpio doesn't try to overpower the other necessary passion/s.
And Gemini has to know all of the above red flags which trigger Scorpio's defenses. If Scorpio has gone all into some confusing rage or cold shoulder, and it doesn't seem quite logical, Scorpio is probably hurt. For purely illogical reasons, anger is easier to deal with than pain. For further illogical reasons, anyone and anything associated with said pain becomes a target of said anger. But until Scorpio cools down and processes, Scorpio can't see what's happened, and all logic is out the window. The best thing for Gemini to do is try to understand what triggered the hurt (use your logic), show Scorpio that you understand (because being understood feels good for anyone), then wait for the cool-down. Scorpio will become logical again, in time.
Scorpio's loyalty increases when Gemini doesn't look down on, or become wary of, Scorpio's meltdowns.
isn't Ethan Hawke married to a Gemini? Confused

i know that Billy Graham is married to a Gemini lady.

What is the dob for Ethan Hawke's wife?


can't find it anymore. i thought i found it once, and it said early june but then the source looks iffy.
it's one of those hard to find celebrity wife/husband birthday types.
Gemini woman and Scorpio man get along great, they are both intelligent and get each others humour. They are both passionate in bed and can develop a deep love and understanding of each other.
And this is where the problems start, Scorpio starts to see that Gemini's life won't revolve around him, he has fallen in love with her light hearted airy nature, but it is also the thing that he doesn't like about her because he wants total possession of her. Gemini senses this and starts to pull away and do more of her own thing, feeling caged in, which makes Scorpio become more controlling as he fears losing her. He doesn't realize that this will push her away more, he starts checking up on her, going through her stuff etc, she despises him for doing this and is put off sex with him, he can't handle that, as sex is his way of showing deep love and he needs to know she still loves him, so he starts demanding sex and being controlling.... and Gemini just walks away.
(From experience)
We still love each other though, it just didn't work.

If she's not giving sex, would he cheat?
hahaha
Funny thing this is. I am a Scorpio Sun, Gemini moon. Two separate signs that could never go together yet they form the very foundation of myself. So in my opinion, the Gemini moon really cloaks me in a way since i talk quite a lot and am outgoing (Still have strong scorpionic traits as well). Nobody would ever suspect or be able to guess my astrological sun sign. So if you wish you can look up that Sun and Moon combination. I'm not going to explain it all.
Its a good friendship but from a relationship point of view It needs a lot to make it work. Like someone mentioned on here, its the communication.
So the communication thing, how does it work? I know one of Scorpio's tactics is the do the deadly silence when something's bothering them. Makes it that much harder to understand but to water and earth, its easier because intuition comes in handy. The problem is when Gemini has difficulty understanding things on an emotional level, they can dissect, they can say what would seem to be the right words (actually the right responses) given the situation. But it seems hard for them to understand Scorpio emotional depths. Any suggestions here?
I take that back, Gemini doors understand things on an emotional level. But it's challenge when it comes to Scorpio emotion.

I think with anybody, regardless of sign, they will talk when they are ready. We gems just have to be patient. I know if I don't wanna talk and someone keeps pushing me, it'll be all bad. So I leave my scorp alone till he comes around. And they will, I think especially if you step back and let them do it on their own.
I don't think it really matters if you don't understand every single deep dark corner of someone's emotion. Just be there, know that they are going through it, and ride it out with them. Idk if that's accurate from the Scorpio point of view but it seems to be working for my relationship.

We Gemini's understand everything, we understand people's feelings, motives, emotions, etc. I don't know where this retarded stereotype of Gemini's being emotionless comes from. Just because a lot of us don't like being victims, doesn't mean we don't know the depths of ours and other people's emotions. We rule communication, we are very intellectual, we grasp and understand the concept of emotions and many things in life.
With that said, OP, I think Gemini's and Scorpio's are better off as friends. Scorpio has the tendency to try and tie us down with manipulative games, trying to make us jealous and all this BS but it never works with a Gemini because we're always just "living in the moment" and it makes Scorpio even more vengeful when they realize we don't react to their games. We're too busy lost in life and the moment.

I don't agree with this. I don't think gems understand everything and I dont think Scorpios try to tie us down and manipulate and make you jealous... huh? First of all... I like to be tied down. And I am jealous as fuck lol he doesn't ever try. Scorpios aren't all about games. Maybe if you start then they will try to play harder but Idk. Gemini and Scorpio is a very unique mix, not for everyone. But it can definitely work without ass much effort as it may seem from astrology compatibility shit.
It better work b/c that is my Sun and MOON combo!!! Winking

"If she's not giving sex would he cheat?"
No he definitely won't cheat if he is in love with you, he will be concentrating all his powers into getting you to love him again, so he couldn't think about anyone else, not while you are still there. However, if you break up with him he will probably go and fuck one of your friends a week later just to even the score, but he will still be in love with you - they do strange things these scorps, always got to win. But the venus in scorpio love I find to be the best all consuming experience.

Not enough experience with Gemini, per say, but I dated a Libra/Aqua/Aqua. Triple-Air. I'm Scorpio/Virgo/Pisces. I was jealous of all the attention other girls would get, but too timid to try to manipulate. I was head over heels, for him. At the time. So in the following example, I was completely biased. Entirely biased, FOR him.
He once said something that shook me, speechless. I could NOT believe he just said that shockingly, horrible, out-of-character thing! How awful! Literally speechless, I sorta froze, unable to respond in any way at all. This wave of anger and shock and repulsion and disgust rushing over me, I couldn't find a single word. Surely it was obvious how I felt. Surely he could tell.
He'd been watching me. He'd intentionally provoked me. He gasped: "You have NO REACTION!!"
*Sigh*
I'm now dating a Virgo/Scorpio/Libra. The attraction isn't as intense, but the understanding runs so much deeper. He is so... comforting. Yet exciting. Hard to describe. But he routinely, on purpose, brings up things that give me the teeniest, tiniest cringe. Like McDonald's. Sushi. Pink. Spongebob. My physical reaction is so very little. These things are itty bitty nuisances of life. Most people don't know I'm the least bit annoyed by them.
He gets giggle fits from what I thought was no reaction. Triple-Air guy thought there was no reaction when I wanted to curl up in a ball and punch something and run far away all at the same time. I'm in no way an expert on the emotions of Gemini. But if we're going on the basis of Air vs. Water... this could possibly be a very big misunderstanding between... expression, if nothing else. Perhaps Air-man wanted words. Scorpio mooner reads my eyes.
In fact, yeah... sticking with that. Expression of emotions seems to be a key difference between Air and Water. Another example:
Very early in dating Libra/Aqua/Aqua, he thought it'd be funny to wrestle me to the ground. Sure he was gentle and all, it didn't hurt physically, but all my paranoia alarm bells went off. It was my first time ever over at his house. If words could be put to what was going through my head, it'd be something like: "Do I need to defend myself?" "What's the best way to take him down?" "Should I knee him THERE?" "Should I bite?" "Should I twist in some sort of wrestling move that'll probably hurt us both, but allow me to escape?" And... "If I defend myself and he's just being a harmless idiot, what will be the repercussions?" "Will I hurt him when I don't actually need to?" "Will he go to the hospital and I'll feel like a maniac?" I was pinned to the ground on my back, my arms held at my sides. I was debating how to hurt him, and IF I SHOULD.
He became very worried. He backed up, saying he didn't like the idea of making me afraid. He didn't want to ever make me afraid of him. He felt bad. So he FELT bad, I could tell, but he COULDN'T read ME. I couldn't bring words, at the time, to describe the difference between what was really going on and what he thought was going on. If I was fearful of anything, it was of hurting him when I shouldn't. I'd never been afraid of him. Self-preservation mode had kicked on, and if he'd pushed it farther, it can be rather... defensive.
I will say that in my time of dating him, words do come much more quickly now. I practiced a lot. I practiced for him. In the end it wasn't enough, though, for him. But all is well. I'd have stubbornly clung on to someone who almost abhorred loyalty. This wouldn't have worked, in the end.
I also for a short time dated a Libra/Cap/Gem. I found that Gemini is an exceptionally attractive sign! Winking And that a Cap Mooner wants to be THE MAN and can't stand the woman wanting to comfort him in times of duress. So... I'm clingy. I have pizza, and movies, and a quiet shoulder, and I know how to use them, and... he wasn't okay with that. And when he was deciding he wanted to dump me (over text, it turns out) he could no longer meet my eyes. For some reason this angered me. It never had before, nor has it since.
And I am very, very happy, with my Virgo/Scorpio/Libra. 0:-) We mirror each other. And we understand each other.
Wow, thanks Draumstafir for your input. True, expression of emotions doors differ between the two and I think that's what's driving my Scorpio mind wild (as if its not wild enough). The gem I'm dating is hard to read and hard to "feel" what he's feeling. Scorpio's have this built-in sensor radar thingy with people and sending fear, love or hate. Something about him is throwing that sensor off like a compass encountering a strange magnetic field. Yeah, and not only that but Scorpio naturally loves to do the mind-meld thing in love. Not so seamless when it comes to an element other than water or earth.
Sigh, I'll either have to keep trying to work this out or stop analyzing/mind-meld altogether. It's frustrating!
lol mr firebird's post made me literally laugh out loud. His post enticed me into signing up....
So I guess I'll share my experience with the lovely Gemini, as a Scorpio. Geminis are impossible. End of story. The guy I was with could've easily been the love of my life but he let one thing break that up: The fact that I love very deeply, and unconditionally even though Im extremely sensitive. He really did not want to be bothered. I actually really do think I scared him just by offering him my everything. Oops. Lol. I'll never understand why they don't just submit to our big, beautiful, loving pincers. Gems can be so confusing. I think they might be the most insecure of all signs just because of the fact that their mind changes are brought on by a lot of... What ifs. Then when you push harder to have them they really stop believing you're telling the truth just because they deem you as too good to be true.
Kind of funny. Theyre my favorite sign. The mystery that a Gem and Scorpio pairing creates is incredible. Your minds stay on the entire time. Conversations can be vivid while arguments can be explosive. The sex is the best part. ;p

Geminis steal Tupperware.


Lol you're still holding on to that?
It's probably in the garbage, anyway. They didn't "steal" it, they threw it out Tongue

Honestly, the less you try, the better. Gemini will never open up their mind completely. Unless they are really being distant (cranky and unaffectionate all the time), I would just let it go. The fewer expectations you give a Gemini, the more they offer things up on their own. The more you try and drag it out of a Gemini, the faster and longer they will remain shut down.
And then you have to realize that Gemini changes their mind a lot about things because we are constantly updating and refining our thoughts. So beyond an outright lie, we are pretty much honest in a single moment. Of course the next day we could be completely honest about having a completely different opinion.
But in general, if a Gemini is still hanging out and talking to you and isn't misbehaving too more than normal, it means we like you/love you. Gemini isn't the most showy about it. But they will make a spot for you in their life.

Sooo true about being honest in the moment. That does change, and I guess that's why we get the wishy washy thing. I absolutely agree with what you said.
The verdict is still out. I'm getting nervous (obviously insecure from the flirtations on his end).
I know a scorpio woman who was in a relationship with someone she worked with in a bar. he was a gemini man. I don't know what it was but I didn't see it lasting.
Never ever EVER again!


This Gemini was a lying machine!

2 years, dying from cancer.

A year of pretending to be homeless.

A year od pretending to go through a divorce.

No empathy, no real remorse.

Cold creatures they are....



well, I was wondering how to get along with my scorpio. I am a Gemini. At the beginning we were not easy to get close when dating.(of cause we both busy.) And I didn't expect (or predict) he would like me but finally we are in relationship now.

In fact, he really did a lot and tried to have more conversations with me. One day he said, "Girl, We MUST TALK." That is kinda...surprising me and I really afraid of expose myself. People have weakness.

Finally i know i am the confused one and i don't want to lose a man who is really concern my feeling.


Then I read a lot about Scorpio and trying to understand (a lot articles show that is impossible), Scorpios are hard to express themselves. So having conversation is the best.
y'all realize that this is an old thread, right?
