Geminis like their home circumstances to be varied and interesting. The family and children are likely to be surprised often by a Gemini parent. This tendency has its up-side as well as a down-side. The Twins are not naturally the tidiest or most organised of people and don't always put their resources into providing secure foundations should they hit a rocky patch.

The Twins prefer, at least when they're younger, to let the future look after itself. But they grow wiser as they grow older. Then they're likely to want to see more security for their families and loved ones. This doesn't mean that all variety must go and all activities be restricted.

Too much restriction will make Geminis wilt, then they'll lose interest in what happens at home. Getting the balance right between security and variety is important if the Twins are to feel at ease with themselves. Family-oriented Gemini's grow when they learn to adjust to the needs, of other people. Their flexible minds can help then to see where family members' feelings night be more important than thoughts. The Twins come into their own when they can be inventive in providing solutions for family difficulties.
