Gemini and Pisces is often a bittersweet match, with equal parts harmony and frustration. The low scores represent the initial compatibility of this match. However, if you can both adapt to the others style this is a relationship which will improve steadily over time, and eventually rival any other match.
These scores show the averages for data collected from my clients over the past 20 years. It's important to note however that individual relationships vary enormously. This is a summarized picture, a real compatibility reading is needed to judge a real relationship. It's also worth noting that Soulmates can be found in any sun sign match, even those which are statistically likely to have low compatibility.
This article is in two halves, the first is written from the viewpoint of the Gemini man or Gemini woman, and the second is written from the viewpoint of the Pisces man or Pisces woman.
This is often a fairly emotional match, and one which has the potential to leave you both feeling insecure and dissatisfied.
You prefer to keep life light and fun, while your Pisces is overall much more emotionally serious and needy. Pisces offer a very deep and unconditional love, and one which you may have trouble relating to - as a Gemini you're very unlikely to need that depth of emotional connection in order to be completely in love with someone.
There's a good chance that this match will create a vicious circle. You'll feel a little smothered emotionally due to the above. As a result you'll pull away, making your Pisces more insecure, and more emotionally needy. You're more intellectual, while your partner is more intuitive, making any communication to halt this process especially challenging.
You're both very adaptable people, and overall that's a good thing. In this match however, on top of the above challenges this can make decision making and building stability and trust particularly difficult.
Humor (yours!) may also be a notable problem in this match. In short you don't take things too seriously, while your Pisces can at times be highly sensitive, emotional and vulnerable. It's almost inevitable you'll hurt or offend unintentionally - perhaps at the very times you're trying to cheer up your often serious and sometimes pessimistic partner.
Added to the above challenges, you like action, excitement, socializing and variety. Most of those concepts tend to wear your Pisces out, often creating a need for alone or quiet time to recharge. There's a danger this will also create a wedge between you.
While you have a light and fun approach to sex, your Pisces takes things much more seriously, preferring a deep emotional connection each and every time.
While you're both passionate and romantic lovers, this fundamental difference in needs can make sex unsatisfying for both of you unless you take the time to understand your partner and respect their needs and viewpoints. Doing so will often expose you to new experiences you'll enjoy, so it's not nearly as self sacrificing as it might sound.
It's important to note however that we're looking only at sun signs here. There are many other planets which can have an equal or greater effect on someone's personality. Makes sense, as ultimately everyone is of course unique. Generalizing too far based just on sun signs can therefore be misleading.
To fully understand someone or how compatible you are with them we need to calculate those other planet placements from their date of birth, and compare them to your own, and then interpret the results.
This unlocks the real power of astrology, and gives much more useful and specific information: everything from how they view you, how to turn them on, how to avoid arguments with them etc. If you would like to explore this further please see the compatibility readings page.
The main problem with this relationship is that your Gemini is an extremely dynamic person, often changing their mind from minute to minute, both about what they want and how they want it. Meanwhile, you're highly emotional and sensitive by comparison, and this is likely to bruise you repeatedly, leaving you feeling disoriented, confused and insecure.
Compounding this, your Gemini is very intellectual and analytical, whereas you're more emotional and intuitive. Communication therefore won't be very easy or natural. Often when "emotionally cornered" Gemini's first reaction is to pull away, creating a vicious circle.
You're both very flexible, which is overall a good thing. The downside however is that you both can be indecisive, and hence there's a high chance of going round in circles on many issues, frustrating both of you, and possibly even leading to long term trust issues.
Your Gemini will be an almost hyperactive partner by your standards, leading a very action packed and active life. Keeping up with this social butterfly may well wear you out. While you will be patient and tolerant initially, this together with the above other differences is very likely to exhaust you in the long term.
This is a very exciting and passionate partner, who will inspire you in the bedroom. The problem however is that while you like an emotional connection from sex, this is a partner who often prefers a much more light hearted and fun approach. It's very likely you'll find this unsatisfying and shallow, while they find you too heavy or smothering.
So is this article conclusive? No! This article is based only on sun sign interaction. In order to provide a lot of people with information it's a convenient and fast way to generalize, but it's far from conclusive at this broad level. To get a complete picture we need to take all the other planets and their interactions into account for each of you, with a real astrology reading...
