Moon in Gemini
Results given by the Moon in the sign of Gemini
The Moon placed in Gemini creates a certain mental restlessness, but gives a sharp intellect and the ability to understand well the thoughts and motives of others. The usual appearance of such people is handsome: a turned-up nose, curly, wavy hair, a pleasant face; they have a good appetite and love variety. They often change their style of dress and love ornaments and jewels. Gemini people are attached to music, art and entertainment; they may be skilled in singing or in playing musical instruments. In the ancient texts they are described as people who are self-assured, sceptical, skilful, romantic but not very deeply loving, yielding easily to force; secretive; they need special exercise or some other outlet for the excess of their mental energy.
Gemini is a dual sign, and therefore such people may try to pursue their career in several directions at once, or may have many marriage partners. They make good office clerks, lecturers and people engaged in intellectual labour. They spend most of their time indoors. They are charming, unstable, and resemble children in character. (Tom Hopke)

The Moon in Gemini: the Moon in Gemini grants self-assurance, a certain scepticism, secretiveness. These people are romantic, but their feelings are superficial. They have a strong intellect, learn easily, have literary inclinations, and are artistic. They can do several things at once. Gemini natives are inconstant, flighty. They are friendly, talented in business and commerce, witty and charming. They can persuade and talk round anyone. They love music, have a good understanding of art, and themselves play musical instruments or sing. (Indubala)

When the Moon, the sign in which it is placed, and its ruler are strong, then the results indicated above are realised in full.
Commentary: B. S. Rao gives the following explanations. This interpretation applies in full in those cases where the Moon, the house in which it is placed, and the planet that rules it are all strong. If only two of these three factors are strong, the characteristics indicated will manifest only partly. If only one of these factors is strong, only traces of these influences will be noticeable. Finally, if all of them are weak, then we shall not notice any coincidence with the interpretations given, even to a small degree. (Varahamihira — «Brihat Jataka», 17.13)

RESULTS OF THE PLACEMENT OF CHANDRA IN MITHUNA
If Chandra is placed in Mithuna, then the person will perform auspicious deeds, he will have the 'Matsya-Rekha' (a line in the shape of a fish) on his palm, will receive full sexual satisfaction, will be loved by his wife and will receive authority and dignity thanks to his aristocratic bearing and excellence.
Commentary: The Rashi [sign] in which Chandra [the Moon] is placed at the time of birth is called «Chandra-Lagna» (Chandra as the Lagna). In Hora Shastra [predictive astrology] the Chandra-Lagna is just as important as the Lagna; its analysis is very important for understanding a person's inner personality. If the Chandra-Rashi (Chandra-Lagna) is stronger than the Rashi of the Lagna, then most of the events of life will be determined precisely by it (that is, by the Chandra-Rashi). Since Chandra is the Karaka [indicator] of the mind, the soul and the heart, the qualities of the Rashi and the qualities of the ruler of the Rashi in which Chandra is placed will definitely be present in the person's mind in the form of emotions; this is represented by the character and qualities of the Chandra-Rashi and of the ruler of the Chandra-Rashi.
This placement speaks of the character of the Rashi Mithuna [the sign Gemini] as the Lagna. The presence of the Matsya-Rekha on the palm points to special qualities in the person. This line lies under the finger of Surya [the Sun] — under the Anamika (the ring finger) — and has the shape of a fish. With this line on the palm the person is inclined to religiousness, disciplined, famous and generous. Such a person will show a special interest in spiritual, social and educational institutions and will be inclined to cooperation. He will invest his wealth in immovable property many times.
