When Gemini is in your 12th House, you experience emotions in a quite rational manner. You may over-think past situations but you are unlikely to hold strong attachment to them. You may experience fears connected to losing your connections with others and loneliness.
To understand what it means when a sign lands in a house on your natal chart, you need to look at the meaning of the house, meaning of the sign, and how they interact:
- The 12th House represents our subconscious, our vulnerability, the person we are when no one is around. It represents our mental health – what provides us with inner peace and what destroys our inner peace.
- Geminiis a mutable air sign. It brings curiosity, focus on communication and a very free nature.
- When Gemini is in the 12th House, it shows that you might have problems with over-thinking the past and any regretful situations. You may have a hard time understanding your emotional self. You may lack compassion for others if you do not understand their position.
