A Truth Test
May 3-10: The Week of the Teacher (Taurus II)
June 11-18: The Week of the Seeker (Gemini III)
The focus of this relationship is independence, a need that Gemini III’s must learn to express to a Taurus Ii partner and must teach and bring out in the Taurus II as well. Unfortunately, Taurus II’s have a demanding side and may react to the Gemini II’s need to seek out and follow other interests with an unprecedented degree of anger and possessiveness. The relationship may in fact become a good testing ground for the development of accepting and nonclaiming attitudes, a kind of truth test that both partners will eventually have to take.
In career, family and marriage, Gemini III’s have problems binding themselves to a group. Taurus II’s, who are seriously involved in such matters, will find it difficult to work with these evasive partners. An alternative, however, especially if children are not involved, is for the Taurus II to join the Gemini III in a relationship based on adventure, travel, and other forms of investigation, exploration and learning. Here the theme of independence can refer to the relationship itself, rather than to its two members. Another possibility is for the Gemini III to function within a Taurus II-led company or organization as a financially astute free agent or adviser who has a lot of latitude in determining his or her schedule ad deciding how responsibilities are to be fulfilled.
Love relationships here are likely to be exciting but ultimately unfulfilling, especially if of the conventional sort. But Gemini III’s who have felt a need for variety in an already established relationship may seek out a more physical and attractive Taurus II with whom to have a fling, or even a long-standing affair. In secret relationships like these, Taurus II’s may come to have quite protective feelings toward Gemini III’s, convinced that they can give them the love, understanding and passion that they are denied in their primary relationship.
Highly independent friendships with few responsibilities can be successful here. The sharing of challenging activities can push the capabilities of both partners to the limit.
