Gemini is the third sign, symbolised by a couple. It carries curiosity, speech, and versatility — quick-minded, sociable, and happiest when exchanging ideas.
Parashara describes Mithuna as a dual (dvisvabhava) airy sign, male, rising head-first (shirshodaya), green like parrot feathers, dwelling in villages, representing a couple bearing a mace and a lute. Its lord is Budha; the classical seven grahas take neither exaltation nor fall here, the nodes' dignities in this sign belonging to later convention.
— Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra ch. 4 (Rāśi Svarūpa)
A dvisvabhava vayu-tattva sign ruled by Mercury: planets here diversify and verbalise. On this platform's node convention it hosts Rahu's exaltation and Ketu's debilitation. A shirshodaya sign, counted stronger by day; for Mithuna lagna the functional-nature table turns Jupiter (7th and 10th lord) into a marked working benefic question, while Mars's lordships (6th and 11th) run functionally difficult.
