Dear Phyllis,

I am a Gemini man who has a nebulous relationship with a Virgo woman. I know that she has a very important role in my life, but i find myself uncharacteristically indecisive about the nature of our relationship. At times, I feel an intense connection that wells up between us. Other time, I don’t want her to weight me down–and don’t want her to be lifted off by myself.

How do I navigate this relationship and do what is right for me?

blood type personality

I’ve visited divine caroline’s site more than once, but this is the first time I’m really spending time there and sifting through articles. Some quick hits.

I’m the universal donor:

Type O
You are the social butterflies. Often popular and self-confident, you are very creative and always seem to be the center of attention. You make a good impression on people and you’re often quite attractive. Organized and determined, your stubbornness will help you reach your goals. You make good leaders. Lovewise, O is most compatible with O and AB. Common career choices: banker, politician, gambler, minister, investment broker, and pro athlete.

That’s a bit of a generalization, but accurate nonetheless. I wonder the difference between O- and O+ is?

But what’s the best career for my zodiac type?

Gemini
Want to make a Gemini happy? Give her plenty to do and make it intellectually stimulating. Remember that Geminis are twins, which means you have to engage two people, so they need to have a lot going on and like fast-paced, pressured environments. They won’t survive long doing tedious or repetitive work. Jobs that require travel are perfect, as are jobs that require social networking. Geminis are optimistic and full of energy—they should be encouraged to let go and express themselves rather than be confined to traditional rules. Best jobs: stockbroker, switchboard operator, technical support, teacher, architect, machine operator, rescue worker.

The description of what type of work that suits a Gemini fits like a warm leather glove, but the “best jobs” at the end left a big question mark. Switchboard Operator? Machine Operator? Seriously? The descriptive profile tells us just why these are two bad jobs for Geminis. We hate repetition, and we need intellectual stimulation. I can’t see either jobs as doing that.

Well, the blood type article basically tells me I am extroverted. The zodiac article tells me I need to travel, be stimulated, and change it up. But I should be a machine or switchboard operator…

Not sure what I think about this site so far but I can’t say i’m impressed. I know it’s hard to pin down a so-called pseudo-science, but let’s get real.
