Geminis born May 31 like to push the proverbial envelope, always looking for ways to get close to dangerous circumstances without getting hurt. They like to give others the impression that they have a "bad" streak, but generally they're not as unconventional as they may appear.

Friends and Lovers

May 31 natives usually contrive to be the most popular person within their circle. Whether it is their charm, good looks, talent, or temperament, there is always something that distinguishes them from other people. Because of their appeal and reputation, they may be attracted to a somewhat promiscuous lifestyle, either their own or someone else's. In later years they grow more conservative.

Children and Family
May 31 people are a product of their upbringing. They can truly "find" themselves as parents, especially if they have children later in life. They experience joy through their children's accomplishments and show considerable restraint when it comes to discipline.

Health

These people may be casual, even careless, about health. Their sense of personal invincibility allows them to feel as if nothing bad can happen to them. Unfortunately, this attitude may result in frequent accidents or unusual ailments, which can be forestalled by more practical attention to safety and health.
They are not big eaters, yet their diet may still be wanting, since their energy level is often in flux. Several small meals a day will increase their stamina.

Career and Finances

Folks born on this date are naturally drawn to jobs or careers that offer an element of danger. Even if they do not need to put their career and financial safety at risk they will do so gladly, as if to prove their invulnerability. A careless way with money combined with great generosity often lands them in financial distress.

Dreams and Goals

May 31 natives have little care for the future and even less for the past. They like to take life as it comes and not worry about the consequences. Success is an abstract concept to them, defined more by attitude than capitulation to a set of prescribed rules.
