Horoscope Quilt - Pattern No. 29
Gemini


By Edith B. Crumb.

According to the belief of the ancients, the Gemini folk were rather variable. Perhaps that was in the mind of the designer for the drawing for this week. Even the wind does not keep to one course, but blows the hair of one twin one way and the next moment blows the other twin's hair the other way. But aren't they jolly twins?

This is the third block or design to go on the border of the Horoscope quilt, and on Pattern No. 27 are suggestions for the laying out of the border.

Gemini folks chose the agate for their birth stone and the honesuckle as their favorite flower.

They harmonize best with a person born un der the sign of Aquarius or Libra, and next best with a person born under Aries, Leo or Sagitarius. A person born under this sign has a tendency to be variable, which, by will, may be translated into ambition. The wordiness or verbosity of a person may be changed to eloquence.

Gemini people are apt fo be so changeable that they need to heed the old caution. "Never swap horses when crossing a stream."
