Tenzing Norgay the Gemini

Gemini is curiosity with a mouth on it. A mutable air sign ruled by Mercury, Gemini runs on information, conversation, and the pleasure of connecting two ideas nobody had thought to put together. Boredom is the real enemy here, not difficulty, not conflict, just the flat grey of nothing new to think about.
