Having a tattoo identical to or related to the tattoo of someone you love will serve as a reminder that no matter where you wander, you will never wander alone.

Apple

Apples symbolize your generous heart and are also super adorable. If you're a little techy, you could even get an Apple apple to pledge allegiance to your MacBook Pro.

Stars

Add as many or as few as you want— stars represent infinite possibility and, because the cosmos are so expansive, the duality of your sincerity and occasional (okay, maybe more than occasional) flighty tendencies.

Map

Pretty self-explanatory: you love exploring, so take what's in your heart and have it inked onto your mortal body. As an alternative, a compass rose tattoo is a classic.

Bumble Bee

Aside from being hella important to human survival and such, an image of a bee represents well your bright and bubbly nature.

Dog/Cat

For the animal-loving Gemini, a simple outline of a dog and cat can symbolize not just your love of animals, but also your need for socialization some of the time and your need for independence the rest of the time. A similar alternative would be to get your cat and dog's paw prints inked.

Cherries

Cherries symbolize happiness and have been said to symbolize immortality. Gemini is a happy sign whose intellectual conquests probably lead most to a belief that there is more to life than merely mortal existence. Bonus: Cherries reach their best ripeness during Gemini season!

Arrow

An arrow represents the independence and confidence of a Gemini. Another way to represent these same traits might be a tattoo of an abstract design of your own creation.

Homage To Your Favorite Book

You're pretty smart. Have a bit of your favorite literature inked onto your skin to express its permanent effect on your life. This quote, meaning 'love conquers all', can be found in Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Prioress's Tale".

Disney

You optimist, you. Rapunzel from Tangled is probably the most beautiful face of pure optimism Disney has to offer, but Olaf from Frozen, Dory from Finding Nemo, and Russell from Up are also good choices. Even classic symbols of Disney, like a crown, castle, or Minnie and Mickey busts can serve as an adorable display of your optimism.

Something Sporty

Via tattooeasily.com

Announce the importance of physical activity in your life with a small representative symbol. Make it as abstract or obvious as you'd like, so long as it is true to you.

Meaningful Quote

Pinterest

Bonus points for this quote, as Ralph Waldo Emerson is a classic Gemini. He was huge on the self-reliance and exploration that is so near and dear to your heart.

Birds

Birds flying behind the ear are especially symbolic for a Gemini, as the birds represent your free nature, and their location symbolizes your free thoughts.
