Spendthrift

The Gemini Woman acquires knowledge readily and wants to put it to immediate and profitable use. She makes money easily and spends it with abandon. Her bank account is usually a mess. Both money and possessions slip through her fingers like

running water. She will spend her last dollar for the sheer joy of spending. Being penniless seems to stimulate the Gemini Woman into new activity.

Her motto is often "Easy come, easy go." She feels there will always be ways to make more money, and her incredible mind will always provide a reservoir on which she can draw. She believes in having what she wants when she wants it, and she will spend her last dollar to get it.

She is a born gambler. She wants windfall profits, not long-term projects of the Taurus variety, not patient collecting of rents; she wants her profits yesterday. She wants the fastest results with the least expenditure of energy. She is attracted to racetracks, gambling casinos, and oil speculation. No lottery or raffle escapes her attention. If she loses, she does not lament; instead, she forges ahead with another scheme plucked from her mental trove. She thinks that if she tries often enough she is bound to make it big eventually; often she does. And if she doesn't, she can always try again.

Nothing appeals more to the Gemini Woman than a fresh start. I have a Gemini friend who has sold all her furniture no fewer than three times because she gets such a thrill from starting all over again. She moved through modern, country French, and Mediterranean with the ease of changing her dress. A new job, a new lover, a new car, all give her a healthy glow.

The only thing the Gemini Woman does not know how to spend is her emotions. She often lacks true compassion. Don't expect chicken soup from her if you've been sick—often not so much as a kind word will come your way. It is difficult for the Gemini Woman to empathize, even with those close to her. And on a broader scale, she has little tolerance for the problems of social classes or institutions that don't have a direct bearing on her life.
