Gemini & Feelings: It's Complicated 🤔

Geminis sometimes get a rep for being emotionally detached or unavailable. Is it true? Sometimes, but often it's more about how they process emotions. Being Air signs ruled by Mercury, they tend to intellectualize feelings. They might talk about emotions extensively, analyze them, joke about them, or try to understand them logically, rather than simply sitting with them like a Water sign might. This can look like detachment to more feeling-oriented types. They might use humor or distraction to navigate discomfort. The "twist" is that they do feel, but their primary mode of processing is mental. Pressuring them for deep, heavy emotional displays might make them withdraw further. Connecting through conversation, understanding their perspective logically, and giving them space to think often works better than demanding immediate emotional outpourings.
