Gemini and Virgo are square, which is one of Astrology's hard aspects — so this pairing
can have some real friction, some tension to it. But it's not all bad. Let's look at
a Virgo--Gemini couple from everybody's favorite 90's TV show, Friends — Monica and Chandler.
Right? Monica — Courtney ***'s character — absolutely stereotypical Virgo. She's
a neat freak, she's got incredibly high standards that she holds herself and everyone around
her to — standards that no one can possibly reach, except she, of course, comes close,
since she's such a perfectionist. Everything in her apartment had to be just so, right?
Everything perfectly clean and neat as a pin. And when she put on holiday dinners, she had
such high expectations, and everything always got royally screwed up by everyone around
her who was just so not a Virgo... So then we have Chandler — Matthew Perry's character.
I mean, these two were a bit of an odd couple, don't you think?? She's a neat-freak perfectionist,
he's this totally witty, sarcastic dude — which is so Gemini, by the way. And he was, like,
this man-boy — this perpetual child in a man's body. And Geminis are very playful and
young at heart, and often somewhat immature. But here's the connection between these two:
Both their signs are ruled by the planet Mercury, which is known as the planet of communication.
So they have this great mental connection. A real meeting of the minds. And if you think
about it, Monica and Chandler were always talking and scheming and plotting together
— very mercurial, if you ask me. Plus, they weren't very touchy-feely, which is pretty
typical for this pairing. They're more about that intellectual, mental connection than
anything physical. And the way it took them forever to fall for each other, and then forever
again to declare themselves a couple — I mean, how many episodes did it take for their
closest friends to even find out they were together? That's very typical of both of these
signs. Virgo falls in love the way this sign does everything else — slowly and carefully.
And Gemini likes to keep all options open — which in Chandler's case was about, maybe
they were together, but maybe they weren't; maybe they were just having fun. But in the
end, of course, they committed to each other. In this particular match, it's Virgo who's
going to keep the couple together for the long term. Once Virgo falls, this sign is
in it for the long haul, and Virgo can be very stabilizing for Gemini, who is otherwise
pretty fickle and inconsistent. But Gemini can help Virgo loosen up a little and just
play and have a good time. This can be a good pairing, if they can get over their differences
and grow together.
