Saturn in Gemini

Saturn in the sign of Gemini

For Saturn this is a good placement; it gives abilities for study and makes it possible to achieve intellectual successes. The personality of such people may have two sides — one side may be patient and humble, while the other is rash and subject to criminal instincts. Abilities for agriculture or a love of being in the open air may manifest. These people are usually lean; they are inclined to risk and to deception. (Tom Hopke)

Saturn in Gemini: tall stature, interesting but rough speech; very active, does not follow generally accepted standards, bears grudges, is inclined to deception and hypocrisy, is devoid of a sense of shame. (Sri Govind Swarup Agarwal)

Gemini represents a subtle intellect and communications. Changeability and a dual character are also proper to it. Gemini natives usually change their occupation often — it is difficult for them to concentrate on only one direction. But when Saturn is in Gemini, it does not let the person fuss about. Saturn makes the process of thinking deep and serious. These people have a great thirst for knowledge, and they are always in the process of learning. In communication they are very organised. They do not like to gossip or to carry on superficial conversations. They feel discomfort in front of an audience. A very good placement for teachers and researchers. But they have no confidence in their own powers and no optimism. In childhood there may be stammering, disorders of speech and communication. A predisposition to diseases of the throat, the lungs and the arms. Boris Berezovsky was born when Saturn was in Gemini. He was a brilliant mathematician and possessed a subtle intellect. The forensic expert gave the cause of his death as «asphyxiation». (Mahesh Dharmadasa)

Results of the placement of Shani (Saturn) in the rashi Mithuna (the sign of Gemini)

If Shani is placed in Mithuna, then the person will love to travel, will possess a vicious (base) heart, will receive pleasure not in his own house but in other places, and will not be happy because of great people. («Jataka Bharanam» 19.75)

Commentary: Such a person's achievements are the result of well-considered plans, since he clearly recognises his field of activity, his duties and his achievements. He does not believe in the effectiveness of hasty decisions or plans, and therefore forms the final version of his plan after due consideration of its various aspects, possibilities and benefits; before acting he makes an analytical and comparative analysis. However, from this manner of acting one should not conclude that the native possesses a mature, strong intellect. On the contrary, such people have a youthful mind, they are very energetic, elated (they possess enthusiasm) and exceedingly intellectual. However, Shani [Saturn] disciplines these qualities in the person.

The degree to which the results mentioned above manifest: If all three — 1) the Rashi [sign], 2) the ruler of the Rashi [sign] and 3) the Graha [planet] — are endowed with strength, then the full result will be obtained. The lesser or greater degree of the results can be learned by studying the position of the ruler of the Rashi: whether it is in debilitation, in exaltation, in its own Rashi, whether it is combust and so on. («Jataka Bharanam» 19.85)
