Gemini comes first in order of the zodiac, so Gemini represents the initial wonder, the question “why?” and the impulse to search and analyze, while Virgo represents the acquirement and organization of information, the response to the “why”
Cancer and Leo being in between these two signs is actually quite significant. Information is mentally organized in a way that caters to who we are and how we feel about it.
The reason the two signs square each other is bc Gemini asks too many questions and Virgo answers too quickly. Virgo doesn’t allow Gemini to wonder bc Virgo always has an answer, but for Gemini, the search for information is what they value most.

I like this explanation... I would have guessed:
- Sagittarius: why (existential questions, mostly related to purpose or meaning)
- Virgo: how (process of how things work or can be executed)
- Gemini: what (what is happening, research of data & information for later analysis)
@EtoileLoba
Yesss I love this. Just to stay with the same words for Gemini and Virgo, I would say Sagittarius is more the “and?? What does that mean?” After the initial “why” — Sagittarius expands on knowledge gained, Gemini is more concerned with the initial acquirement of that knowledge
@sagistarbb
Why is the biggest question in my life. I am constantly asking why about every single thing, including things that have no answer. It's the question of doom. An eternal circle of mental exhaustion. Next to "who am I". I guess. Sigh.
