If the Zodiac wheel is 360 degrees, then two signs directly opposite one another–at 180 degrees–are considered polar opposites. Yes, you’ve heard the term. And you probably know what’s coming next: Opposites attract! But do they? Do they really?
An aspect is the term used to describe the relationship between two signs on the Zodiac wheel. And when two signs sit 180 degrees apart, they’re referred to as ‘in opposition’ or as having a ‘polarity,’ hence the term, polar opposites. And that’s you two, my friends.
- Gemini, born between May 21st and June 20th.
- Sagittarius, born between November 22nd and December 21st.
You’re exactly five signs apart from each other. And while every sign in the Zodiac has polarity, the way each interacts will be different. But one thing is for sure: you’re up for something interesting.
The elements of each polar sign will be complimentary: either fire and air or earth and water. While signs that share elements often have the best chance of success, complementary elements are always a good sign. Fire and air signs are typically considered a masculine or yin match up, while earth and water have a feminine energy, the yang. There’s a push and pull tug to this relationship, a give and take, if you will. You will have different perspectives on life and although you won’t have the same story written down, it’s likely you’ll share a page in each other’s book. The differences in your personality will bring out the best in the other person.
Sounds promising, right? Does that mean you’re bound for friendship, love–or perhaps somewhere in between? Let’s find out!
Gemini
You’re a quick-witted chatterbox, Gemini, someone who relies on your interpersonal skills to get what you want out of your life. This is thanks to your ruling planet, Mercury, which dominates communication.
As a mutable sign, you’re flexible and adaptable to whatever life has to throw at you, and because of this, you crave change. Routine is boring to you and it’s likely that you seek ways to spice up your everyday life, either through meeting new people, finding new hobbies, or figuring out fresh ways to do old things.
Some people can mistake your spontaneity for flightiness, and although you’ll admit that you’re indecisive at times, you’ll go out of your way to ensure you cultivate positive relationships with the people you love.
Because of your freedom-seeking nature, it can be difficult for you to commit to a single person in terms of a relationship, yet this will conflict with your desire to build connections with people. And since you’re in the third house of sharing, you have the perfect perspective to do just that.
However, your relationships thrive best with like-minded individuals who understand your unique desire for self-expression and freedom. And don’t worry–they’re out there.
Sagittarius
Well, aren’t you just the luckiest sign in the Zodiac, Sagittarius? You can thank Jupiter, your ruling planet, for that. It’s all about divine timing, luck, and fortune. Things just seem to work out for you.
You’re outspoken and blunt, someone who prefers directness over passive aggressiveness, and yet your honesty can be confused as abrasive to the more sensitive signs in the Zodiac. Like Gemini, you’re a mutable sign, and crave surprises in your everyday routine.
You’re in the Ninth House, which is all about adventure and higher learning, the perfect combo description to describe your personality. Of all the astrological signs, you’re the explorer, the person who seeks adventures to meet that high of new experiences. Wanderlust is your favorite word, and even if you haven’t been everywhere yet, it’s probably on your list. While you love experiencing things, you’re not going to hold back from your quest for information, too.
As a fire sign, you’re passionate, but unlike other fire signs, you lack the intensity of an Aries, and the flare of Leo. Your fire manifests in your honest pursuit for genuine experiences. You don’t play games, and you’ll cut through the BS to get to the heart of what you mean, but you always do so with an upbeat, optimism, even if other people don’t see it that way.
Gemini and Sagittarius in Friendship
There’s a reason the elements of air and fire are complementary. Think about it: air feeds oxygen to the fire, building it up. That’s you as a friend Gemini, encouraging Sagittarius to light the way toward their desires. And of all the elements, air is the only one truly immune to the blaze of the heat. For you, Sag, this means that of all the signs, Gemini is the one who will never be taken aback by your bluntness.
If anything, they’ll ask questions and want to understand where you’re coming from. Sag, you have a go-getter mindset, pursuing your dreams with fervor, even if you take a few detours along the way. Gemini, you’re just as eager to excel in life, but your focus is more on your connections with the people around you. And although you have differing perspectives, you both crave genuine relationships and it’s something you’ll discover you each share upon your first conversation.
Friend Date: Mani/Pedi or Streaking on the Beach at Midnight?
Sag, you’re an adventurer, who prefers taking the path less traveled. You’re never going to say no to something exciting, in fact, you’ll probably be the one suggesting the fun. That’s your mutable nature. With a symbol like the archer, you’ll take aim at your destination, close your eyes, and then follow your target.
But you have a tendency to shoot a handful of more arrows along the way, meaning the steps you take never follow one specific direction. You don’t mind. You’ll curve a circle as long as the journey is interesting.
Gemini loves this about you, they’re flexible energy matching yours. In the past, you’ve both struggled with friends not being able to keep up with you, and that definitely won’t be a problem for you two.
Friend-Fection: Keep It on the Dl or Text ‘Love Ya Biatch?’
Conversation is nothing for you, Gemini. You’ll talk about the superficial, the serious and everything in between. While you Sagittarius have no problem expressing your feelings, you don’t need a huge conversation to get your point across. You two may have some struggles here, as Gemini’s conversations can get long-winded, but Sagittarius, you’ll appreciate Gemini’s honesty.
Not only that, but Gemini won’t get their feelings hurt when you’re blunt, Sag, and that’s something that will come as a relief. As long as you, Sag, can learn to talk longer than you may prefer, and you, Gemini, can let things go after you’ve gotten your point across, this friendship will have clear and honest communication.
Dating Advice: Send His Name or Send His Social?
Gemini you love to date just to learn about people–and you’re not going to hold back from telling your friends about all the interesting people you meet. Sag, you’re interested in dating mainly to find an adventure partner. But because you have friends like Gemini by your side, you don’t feel it necessary to have a romantic relationship to experience life.
You’re more likely to talk about your partner with friends like Gemini only after you know it’s going to be something real. Mainly because Gemini will want to know everything there is to know, and if your new partner isn’t worth talking about, then you’re not going to offer up the information.
However, because you both crave freedom above all else, it’s likely neither of you will commit unless you’re one hundred percent sure of the person. Fortunately, your friendship will never get boring and for that reason, you won’t ever feel alone. And that’s one reason that you two may gradually become something more.
Gemini and Sagittarius in Love
Sagittarius, you’re the most non-committal sign in the Zodiac, but Gemini is right behind you, sometimes beating you for the title. As a result, it’s likely the two of you may choose a friend-with-benefits situation over something more serious. And you both will be just fine with that, for a while. Don’t be surprised if feelings enter the picture. You two will be having so much that you won’t want your time together to end. From endless conversations to exciting adventures to intimacy that rivals everything before it, chances are that a relationship is inevitable.
The First Date: Roses or KFC?
Neither of you are super concerned with grand romantic gestures. Experiences are more important than flowers, and who you share your time with is much more pivotal than what you’re actually doing. Still, Gemini prefers conversation to learn who someone is, while you, Sag, prefer action over chatter. But because you’re flexible and adventurous, Gemini, you’re more than happy to join Sagittarius for a spontaneous road trip to the beach or a last-minute concert in the city.
And Gemini, you’re so skilled at communicating you’ll influence even the most introverted person to open up. Sagittarius will find you charming and incredibly easy to talk to. Overall, this will be a date to remember. And although neither of you wants to experience the same things over again, the way you felt after this date is something you will want to play on repeat.
Love Language Do’s and Don’ts: A Dealbreaker?
If you two take the lunge to commit, it’s likely you’ve already established your boundaries. It’s pretty hard not to with how blunt and honest you both are. Your mutual desires for freedom will mean that you have your own life outside of this relationship, and it’s just the way you like it.
This is a perfect balance of keeping your freedom while giving your loyalty to a singular person. You both will understand your need for independence. If issues arise, it’s because, like your friendship, Gemini will want to talk late into the night about your issues, while you Sag, are much happier to forgive and forget. With a little compromise, you’ll be able to make it work.
Sexy Time: Slow and Steady or Chompin’ at the Bit?
There won’t be any hesitations here, my friends. You two are very in tune with yourselves sexually, and you know exactly what you like in the bedroom, and for both of you, it’s all about exploration, fun, and fresh experiences. Your intimacy will never be boring–and where you do it won’t be either. Just try not to get arrested, kay?
The Verdict?
Your mutual desires for freedom and adventure will cultivate a friendship and relationship that is engaging, exciting, and never lacking in communication.
For both dynamics, Sag, you’ll need to understand that Gemini may need to break things down and talk a bit longer during any disagreements, while you Gemini, will need to learn when to let it go and trust that Sag got the point.
