Modern sign synthesis - not from a classical text. The lucky day, colour and number are the same.
Gemini (Mithuna) is curious, communicative and quick-witted. Ruled by Mercury, natives love ideas, variety and conversation.
Media, writing, sales, teaching, IT and any field needing communication and adaptability.
Playful and mentally stimulating in love; they need a partner who keeps them intellectually engaged.
Counted from the Moon sign, vedha included. These grahas stay in a sign for months or years, so this is what sets the longer tone.

A sign's 30 degrees are nine nakshatra padas - two and a quarter nakshatras. The birth Moon's pada is also where the first syllable of a traditional name is taken from.
The syllables are the jyotisha almanac's table (the avakahada chakra). The Dharmasindhu (1888, p. 133) records that some name a child by it, and says the srauta and grihya texts do not agree; no text stating the table itself was found.
Counted from the janma rāśi (Moon sign) - Phaladeepika 26.2.
