Trine relationships, where signs are four steps apart, are beloved in both Western and Chinese astrology. For Aquarius and Gemini, the Trine interval means they share the element of Air. Air is the most highly cerebral and sociable element. Hence there is every chance these two will hit it off immediately, sharing witty banter and their mutual love of ideas from far and wide.

Aquarius is an intellectual at heart, with an endless interest in universal truths and wisdom. Gemini will likely be enthralled, not only by the subjects dearest to Aquarius' heart, but by the logical and rationalist way in which Aquarius' mind works. Aquarius will find similarly appealing the breadth of Gemini's interests, especially their fascination with travel and cultural diversity. Freedom—conceptual and physical—will likely prove especially fertile common ground for this pairing. Gemini's instinctive desire to explore and experiment with individual identity knits beautifully with Aquarius' tendency towards unorthodoxy and eternal acceptance of others.

Over time, the spontaneous harmony between these two can be expected to become ever deeper and richer. Gemini's reflective Mutable modality—always asking, What comes next?—forms a natural complement to Aquarius' Fixed energy, with its focus on real-world accomplishment. Hence these two are natural collaborators, encouraging each other when they speak directly, and fostering a supportive environment simply with their presence and attitudes. Affection, spoken and unspoken, may prove effortless in this combination. The challenges for Air signs, which can be fickle or bitter when stressed or rejected, are unlikely to surface much here at all.

In short, this is as fortuitous as any match in Western astrology, and may prove a blessing in whatever context Aquarius and Gemini encounter one another.

Anne Heche (5/25/1969, Gemini Rooster), Ellen DeGeneres (1/26/1958, Aquarius Rooster)  : The entertainer and actor dated between 1997 and 2000 and for a time were one of the most famous lesbian couples in the world. Heche (who died in 2022) described later: "This wasn’t a long-term love affair. This was a moment in my life when I was given the glory of being able to stand up for what I believe in and have since I was a kid."

Megan Thee Stallion (2/15/1995, Aquarius Pig), Normani (5/31/1996, Gemini Rat)  : The singers teamed up for the track 'Diamonds' from the Birds of Prey soundtrack and have developed a strong friendship, with Teen Vogue describing: "Within the three years since they first met, they have become inseparable — or, as inseparable as two people could possibly be with superstar schedules."

Björn Borg and John McEnroe

Björn Borg (6/6/1956, Gemini Monkey), John McEnroe (2/16/1959, Aquarius Pig)  : The former professional tennis rivals, who played epic Wimbledon finals in 1980 and 1981, have developed a lasting friendship. McEnroe has described: "I think the best part for me personally is that Björn and I still get along. I think he is the only one of my rivals that I actually got along with. Everyone else, I was fighting all the time."

Jim Belushi (6/15/1954, Gemini Horse), John Belushi (1/24/1949, Aquarius Rat)  : The two brothers achieved lasting fame for their respective achievements in films and entertainment. The death of the elder John Belushi at 33 in 1982 has been described as the "defining trauma" of younger Jim Belushi's life. In an interview, Jim remembered a trip they took to the Russian baths when he was 21: "The steam’s coming through the pipes, and a guy comes up with a bucketful of soap and starts smacking me with a bunch of oak leaves. Then John puts me in a cold shower, and I’m just standing there, naked. He takes some shampoo and washes my hair. That moment to me was like: 'This guy loves me.'"

Carey Mulligan and Marcus Mumford

Carey Mulligan (5/28/1985, Gemini Ox), Marcus Mumford (1/31/1987, Aquarius Rabbit)  : The singer and actor married in 2012 and have two children together. They knew each other as childhood pen pals, exchanging letters through their church. Mulligan has said that they still write to each other sometimes when apart: "Love letters are becoming a lost art form, which is very sad. To have a love letter from someone, to hold it in your hand and know you can keep it for your whole life, that's an amazing thing."

Kylie Minogue (5/28/1968, Gemini Monkey), Michael Hutchence (1/22/1960, Aquarius Pig)  : The two legendary Australian musicians were romantically involved between 1989 and 1991. Minogue later described: "Sex, love, food, drugs, music, travel, books, you name it, he wanted to experience it. As his partner I got to experience a lot of that as well. If you're a sensual being, all of your senses need stimulation. He definitely awakened my desire for things in my world."
