This rashi’s own nature
What kind of rashi Mithuna is
Every rashi has a lord and an element. What makes Mithuna a particular rashi is who else shares them. Tula and Kumbha are the other two air rashis, and they stand at the 5th and the 9th from Mithuna — on this wheel an element and a trikona are the same triangle.
Mercury rules Kanya as well, so those and Mithuna answer to one graha — whatever Mercury is doing in the sky, it is doing to both.

Moon sign, not sun sign
Is Mithuna really your rashi?
Your rashi is your moon sign — where the Moon stood when you were born — not the Western sun sign from your birthday, and for most people the two are different.
