Nadir in Gemini

Nadir in Gemini means Gemini was at the lowest point of the chart, under the Earth, at the minute and place you were born. It is opposite the Midheaven and changes about every two hours, so it takes an exact birth time.

Gemini is a mutable air sign. The nadir, or IC, is the point opposite the Midheaven: the part of the zodiac that was under the Earth, beneath your feet. It speaks of roots, home and what holds you up unseen.

Your roots

Roots in words

Your foundation may be conversation. Perhaps home was full of talk, books, brothers and sisters, comings and goings, or the family moved more than once. In private you probably need something to read, someone to tell, a window open. You may belong to several places at once. Perhaps what holds you up, unseen, is your curiosity, the sense that there is always a next thing to learn.
