Mithuna is an air sign ruled by Mercury and a dual sign, so it moves between ideas, people and possibilities. Its Vedic symbol is a couple, the man holding a mace and the woman a veena: strength and art, two sides in conversation. It is the sign of communication, learning, wit and skill with the hands.
Gemini holds the second half of Mrigashira, all of Ardra and three padas of Punarvasu. It is curious, sociable and adaptable, and it thinks best by talking. Its gift is connection and versatility; its challenge is depth and steadiness.
