Your Virgo Ascendant and Your Gemini Midheaven
Although both the signs Virgo and Gemini are ruled by Mercury, the planet of the mind, they are almost diametrically opposed to one another in the behavior they exhibit. While your Virgo Ascendant (rising sign) will take the most sensible path in any given set of circumstances, your Gemini Midheaven (i.e., cusp of the 10th house) prefers to do whatever seems appropriate at the moment.
Both signs are intellectually quick; however, Virgo stresses practical applications of an idea, while Gemini does not. You would prefer to be “foot-loose and fancy-free,” gathering experiences and visiting new places in a sort of perpetual motion. However, your Virgo Ascendant represents stability: if you are at all a traveler, you would probably be of the armchair variety. An occupation that combines physical stability with intellectual activity would be ideal for you.
When placed in a tense situation though, you are likely to exhibit the best imitation of “scatter-brain” behavior that one could imagine. Your normally realistic personality will begin hatching schemes to extricate yourself from difficulties when these solutions may not even apply to the problem...
Unfortunately, your best method of coping with difficulties seems to be a quick disappearing act, which your Virgo Ascendant – at full operant – would never condone...
