Robert Tomeo, my younger brother, is 53 years old today, and happens to be a Gemini (if that means anything). For the next month (less one day) we will be the same age. Not only am I a Cancer (if that means any more than being a Gemini), but I also have the distinction of being born during the Summer of Love in 1967! Anyway, this is one of the more mundane of my recycled articles that should have posted at noon on Saturday, but seemed to be more appropriate for June 13.
Astrology is an interesting concept. It is amazing how accurate the various zodiacs are. In fact, they are so accurate, that all twelve of the zodiacs can apply to just about anyone, regardless of their respective birthday.
For example, Gemini people are gentle, affectionate, curious and adaptable. Well, who isn’t? If I told you that these traits applied to Leo, Aquarius or Sagittarius, would you believe me? The weaknesses of Gemini are nervousness, inconsistency and indecisiveness. We all of us experience these weaknesses at one time or another. Gemini people like music, books, magazines and strolling about town. What about Aries, Capricorn and Taurus? Don’t they? Are Gemini people unique in their dislike for loneliness, confinement or repetition? Probably not.
