What is the purpose of having a Gemini / Mercury / Third house dominant in the chart?
You were born with a chart that strongly emphasizes the energy of Gemini. In this life, you are meant to embody the archetype of the communicator, the improviser and the comic and to display its positive qualities, namely curiosity, versatility and light-heartedness. You may have lacked these qualities in your prior lives or you were unable to use them properly, so you were blessed with an extra dose this time around. You came into this life equipped with this particular energy so that you could fulfil your life purpose or reach an important goal, which eluded you in the previous incarnations. On top of that, this dominant will help you grow and evolve on a personal level, which is the ultimate purpose of every incarnation.
So how can you grow and evolve? It seems that you came here to do one or more of the following: to learn a little bit about many different things, to explore your mind or to be a communicator. You are learning how to explore different ideas and to question both sides of the argument. This time around, it's about your mind. What do you want to say? What are you curious about? If you weren't afraid, what kind of thoughts would you express? If you didn't feel the need to stick to one thing, what would you want to explore and learn about?
You are here to break free from any rigidity and limiting circumstances in your life. The main purpose of having this dominant is to be free to explore, learn and try things out. You don't have to commit yourself to any particular idea or belief, instead, you are meant to question them and see if they can survive being put to the test. You are meant to stay eternally excited about new ideas, so don't stop seeking new things that stimulate your mind. The whole point is for you to develop your intellectual abilities and to stretch your mind. Don't be afraid to be curious. Ask many questions, speak up about your ideas and share your thoughts. You are here to be the communicator, the improviser and the comic.
