General Characteristics of Pisceans

Pisces is the twelfth astrological sign in the Zodiac, and is considered a “feminine”, negative (introvert) sign.[2] It is also considered a water sign and one of the four mutable signs. The Pisces motto might be “Reality is just a shared illusion,” and, in a higher sense this may be true. Nevertheless, you still need to survive in this “shared illusion” of reality, and sometimes this becomes a struggle for you compassionate Fish, who can feel the pain of the world as if it were your own. There’s no easy escape for you. Your best path is to follow a creative or spiritual pursuit while doing your work in the real world.

Kind, charitable, helpful and self-sacrificing – these are some of the Pisces’ admirable characteristics. They are here to give to anyone who needs their help, attention and love. They want to heal and will always sacrifice for the greater good of their families and community. Pisceans are also known for being sensitive and emotional. They are sympathetic and receptive and sense every tiny bounce of emotions around them. This make them merge easily with everyone around them. They emphatize when people are sad and rejoice when good things happen to them. They react emotionally to everything making them compassionate and sensitive to those around them. They are generous, insightful, and truly big-hearted.

Another great strength of this sign is their powerful imagination. They have intuition that is equally powerful. Alongside with this is their being creative, in fact this is a sign that is known as the poets of the zodiac. Their dreams are often their source of inspirations for their artistic ventures.

Pisceans are very caring and nurturing partners. They like to shower their loved ones with a generous display of emotions. They love to give pleasure and overwhelm their lover with a lot of affections.

Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, which has the symbol of ‘The Fish’. Pisces people are not much interested in the material things of life and are not the ones to run after money. It’s not that they are against riches, but they are more aware of its impermanence. They are not greedy about anything, least of all wealth. A Piscean has an easy carelessness about tomorrow. Pisces display either of the two basic personalities traits – going with the flow or against it. They will either go where the current takes them or fight against it.

Only if they choose the latter one, will they be truly happy and satisfied with their life. When they manage to do this, they are sure to reach the highest echelons of success. A Piscean characteristics profile exhibits loads of charm and a very easygoing attitude. He is not bothered by restrictions, as long as he has the right to dream and live his own life. Radical opinions do not stimulate him at all, nor do insults make him agitated. Very few things compel him to lose his temper. When a Pisces does get angry, it is better to stay away.

He can give the most sarcastic comments, be extremely rude and lash you with a scathing tongue. The best part is that the anger seldom lasts long and he will be his usual placid self again. When he sees the world, his eyes seem to be covered with rose-colored spectacles. Pisceans live in the world of their own, even when they are completely aware of the rough side of humanity. In their world, everyone is good and everything is beautiful. They have a very sharp memory and tend to remember the minutest of details.

When we give a description of Pisces personality, one of the basic traits that come in mind is its soothing stability. Even in the worst of storms, a Piscean will never panic and will maintain his poise. He has a good intuition and if he tells you not to go out of the house on a particular day, it is better to stay indoors. Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac and represents death and eternity. It has a blend of the qualities of all the other zodiacs. It is because of this fusion that it becomes very difficult to truly understand a Pisces.

He is a great organizer and pays attention to details (like Virgo), has a fair and detached judgment (like Libra), is sympathetic and moody (like Cancer), displays honesty and kindness (like Sagittarius), loves people and attention (like Leo) and is analytical (like Aquarius). At the same time, he talks very quickly and expertly (like Gemini), is passive and stubborn (like Taurus), can know your deepest secrets (like Scorpio), shows dedication to duty (like Capricorn) and overflows with optimism, innocence and zeal (like Aries).

A Piscean likes to argue, loves nature and holds fierce ambitions. He is deeply interested in music and art. He has great wisdom and is very compassionate towards the weak. He loves to help people in distress and utilizes most of his energy doing this only. You will never know when a Piscean is profoundly hurt. He hides his deepest emotions behind a veil of humor. The humor may be warm and innocent or cold and ruthless. However, it is sure to be a mask for some other emotion, more often than not.

Laughter is his best cover and he will use it wisely. He has compassion for the sick and even tries to understand the feelings of the lonely. Even those who are weak by choice will get Pisces shoulder to cry on. He never judges people and accepts them just as they are. He knows all your vices and virtues, understands them and will still be there if you need him. He wants to help everyone; still most of the people fail to understand the sensitivity of the fish. He absorbs the positive as well as the negative vibrations around him.

The world needs the creativity, imagination and empathy of Pisceans and they know it. Very often, they bury their own dreams to see their loved ones realizing their ambitions. One quality of Pisceans that is very annoying is that they hate to answer questions in a simple ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. Mostly, the answer will be a ‘Maybe’. Still, he cares and he lets you know that. He is much stronger and wiser than most of the other people, he only has to realize it. The moment he struggles against the tide, you know he will reach the shore before anyone else.

General Description of Aquarians

Aquarius is the eleventh astrological sign in the Zodiac, and is considered a “masculine”, positive (extrovert) sign. It is also considered an air sign and is one of four fixed signs.

A typical Aquarius has the attribute of intense desire to communicate. You are a bit tactless and rude if you don’t learn to moderate your constant broadcasting around those whose opinions may be a bit more on the conservative side. You are interesting and attractive. You can be shy, sensitive, gentle and patient or enthusiastic and lively with a tendency to be exhibitionists. Both types are strong willed and forceful in its own way. You are very opinionated with strong convictions and fight for what you believe. You are farsighted and innovative. You are generally without prejudice and quite tolerant of others’ point of view. They are good listeners, and care deeply for their friends. To people they are not close to however, they can be somewhat detached. The Aquarius sun sign is true blue and loyal. They are one of the first to sign up to server their country, and will give their lives defending her.

You are truly humane and known to be frank and outspoken. You are refined and idealistic, romantic and practical, personable and likable person. Being quick in mind and responding, you love activity and are quite reasonable in that. They can be counted on to come up with original ideas. They make good designers and inventors as well as musicians. These intellectuals excel in the arts as well as the technical trades. You cherish and guard your independence and are a strange mixture of caring concern and cool detachment. You will go out of your way to help when needed but will never get emotionally involved.

Determined Aquarius, a fixed sign, can be rather stubborn, offhand and resistant to imposed changes. You accept the substantial alterations in life as a challenge, but are quite averse to those small changes which can throw a spanner in the works. When confronted with unreasonable authoritarian demands or dogmatic principles to which you do not subscribe, you rebel. You certainly resent being told what to do, although you can be quite co-operative when properly approached. Aquarians are naturally sceptical; they like to test things for themselves, but, once convinced, become firm in their determination to see things through. Anyone who wants to get on side with you needs to see what must be done and share the load without being asked.

Most of you are less than fabulous cooks, although you’ll eat just about anything! So far as sports are concerned, my dears, as long as you can participate in such activities with a partner, or as part of a team, you can get quite enthusiastic about it, so have little trouble keeping physically fit. You do have a tendency to laziness, however, so are reluctant to engage in any boring series of exercises on your own. Broad jumping, camping, ballooning, tennis, swimming, racquetball and baseball are cool for you. Science and engineering, international finance, writing, music, astrology, psychology or social work are all fields wherein you could find your niche

People belonging to the Aquarius sign are characteristic humanitarians. They like being with people and value each and every person they contact. They are selfless and patient, hence, have numerous friends. Friends are always their first priority, and Aquarians are more like guardians than equals. They like to advice people, but it is never the other way round. Every single person seems mysterious to them, and solving the mystery of human nature is the favorite past time for the people of this zodiac sign.

An Aquarius personality is very interesting. Freedom of every kind, including that of action and thoughts is very precious to the Aquarians. Although they socialize a lot, they value personal space too. They will never display their true emotions. Aquarians are curious, intellectual, objective and are drawn to novelty. They are also sympathetic and philosophical. Characteristics of Aquarius also include being erratic, aloof and unpredictable.

Something More About Aquarius

Aquarius is an air sign. Other air signs forming the triangle are Gemini and Libra. Thus aquarians get along well with Aquarians, Geminians and Librans. Also, their polar or opposite sign is Leo. This means that they usually have clashes with people born under the sign Leo. I can vouch for this fact since two of my very good friends belong to these two signs and they have always had problems in getting along.

General Description of Capricornians

Capricorn is the tenth astrological sign in the Zodiac and is considered a “feminine”, negative (introvert) sign. It is also considered an earth sign, and is ruled by the planet Saturn. This sign is one of my favorites and particularly close to my heart as some of the most important people in my life are Capricornians. My father and my first cousin, both of whom happen to be two of my closest friends belong to this sign. And though, according to the natal chart, Cancer (my sign) is the opposite sign of Capricorn, I get along really well with most Capricornians I know… touch wood!!

The zodiac sign of Capricorn is represented by the symbol of ‘The Goat’, more precisely a Sea-Goat. Capricorns are not the ones who seek limelight; rather they make up the audience that admires. They are like the tortoise, which moves slowly and still wins the race. A Capricorn finds it extremely easy to merge into a group and will look like one of its original members. He always seems to be surrounded by an air of melancholy and seriousness. He has a soothing voice, pleasant appearance and a convincing personality.

A Capricorn not only looks harmless, rather he is quite incapable of any serious damage. He takes abuses, strains, failures as well as responsibilities quite calmly, without even batting an eyelid. He knows where he has to go and will persistently move towards his goal. He holds great respect for the people who have excelled in their life, respects authority and honors conventions. That, however, does not mean they like to accept authority over them. They let people go ahead and then find a way to reach the finish line before them.

A Capricorn may appear somber and reserved in their dealings with others, but once they give the trust, they are a loyal and steadfast friend. Socially oriented, they are willing to work hard for anything they want, and their self-esteem is extremely important to them. They are bright and quick. They are good in detail as well as in insight and conceptual formulation. They are materialistic rather than philosophical.They are capable of falling in love for its own pleasure but love alone will not motivate them to marriage. To them, marriage serves a social design.

A Capricorn does not daydream. He is above envy, obsession, recklessness, rage, abuse, idleness and negligence. As far as he is concerned, all these things are obstacles in the way of success. He is very romantic, but emotions do not make him oblivious of the practicalities of life. Unrestrained passions and emotions make him uncomfortable. At times, a Capricorn may put his foot down and refuse to work till he is given the complete power.

However, such a situation is pretty rare and the spell won’t last long. After some hard jolts, he will back on his track. Capricorns are quite contended with their lives and show respect for age and experience. They mind their own business and would not give advice, unless asked for. In case you do ask for their advice, be ready to get it with some harsh suggestions. He will also expect you to follow it. A Capricorn has to be prepared for everything, be it a business venture or an emotional commitment. He never waits for the opportunity to knock twice on the door. He is always waiting for it eagerly.

A Capricorn will come across as an extremely sweet person, who is shy, harmless, trustworthy and perhaps, a little obstinate. You confide everything in him and trust him blindly. In the end, he becomes indispensable and you start depending on him. But then, who’s complaining? It’s always comforting to have his strong shoulders to lean upon. A Capricorn loves taking responsibilities and will carry them out meticulously. With him, you will never have to worry about anything, just remember to let him handle the reins.

Capricorn zodiac sign represents strength, perseverance, reliability and dependability. A Capricorn individual has lots of determination and work towards their goal, slowly and gradually. He is extremely responsible and carries all his duties with utmost sincerity. The Goat is very emotional, but his partner will have to have lots of patience and shower him with lots of affection to break his hard outer shell and draw out his true feelings. Otherwise, his love will remain unexpressed forever.

This is the main reason why not all the people can hope to achieve great compatibility in their relationships with Capricorns. Their ideal love match has to be patience, sincere and very dedicated, just like him. He/she also needs to be a little frivolous, to drag him out of his work and make him light-hearted and playful, every now and then. A Capricorn hates lethargy and indifference. He is very trustworthy, faithful, consistent and sincere in his relationships and expects the same from his partner.

Aries

Aries individuals are most likely to get positive news this coming year. 2010 will bring better results than 2009 did. First few months of this year, you are advised to be cautious while taking decisions, as your ruler Mars is debilitated till 26th May. Accomplishment of goals, completion of pending works and stability is coming your way.

Work pressure will keep you stressed and you should do some daily exercises and yoga to eliminate stress. For 2010, placement of Jupiter is in 11th house, which indicates good luck and good gains coming your way. You will get new opportunities to make your mark in your profession. You need to be pragmatic in your approach if you want to achieve desired results. Being vociferous will make success follow you.

It’s better to take precautions for the adventurous and those who are involved in outdoor activities. Students should concentrate on the practical aspects of their studies. They should start preparing well on time for exams.

Gemini

The high-energy twins will bring their Gemini magic to the area of health and fitness. This trendsetting sign is likely to kick off the fresh decade by getting into a new game, sport or fitness craze. Of particular interest will be activities that combine old-fashioned muscle work with technological advances. The mix of modern and ancient techniques will deliver speedy results for Gemini. The social aspect of exercise cannot be underestimated for this friendly sign. Gemini is far more likely to stick with a program if it involves fun with friends — and hopefully dishy conversation, too.

Overseas travel this year is indicated around May, which will be both for fun and business. Fund investments, joint financing, buying-selling opportunities, real estate deals, success in gas and chemicals are foreseen in 2010.

You are gifted with sharp memory but your introvert nature makes you lose on potential. This has been true in the last few years because of transiting Saturn.

It’s about time for old wounds to be healed, and Cancer is willing to do the emotional work it takes to put past pain in its final resting place.

General Description of Sagittarians:

Sagittarius is the ninth astrological sign in the Zodiac and is considered a “masculine,” positive (extrovert) sign.

Sagittarians have a positive outlook on life, are full of enterprise, energy, versatility, adventurousness and eagerness to extend experience beyond the physically familiar. They enjoy travelling and exploration, the more so because their minds are constantly open to new dimensions of thought. They are basically ambitious and optimistic, and continue to be so even when their hopes are dashed. Their strongly idealistic natures can also suffer many disappointments without being affected. They are honorable, honest, trustworthy, truthful, generous and sincere, with a passion for justice. They are usually on the side of the underdog in society they will fight for any cause they believe to be just, and are prepared to be rebellious. They balance loyalty with independence.

Sagittarians are usually modest and are often religious, with a strong sense of morality, though they tend to overemphasize the ethical codes they follow and worship beliefs about God rather than God Himself. This means that, negatively, they regard rigid, unloving, intolerant adherence to ritual and conventional codes as more important than the truths they symbolize or embody. They sometimes pay lip service to religions and political parties in which they have ceased to believe because the outward forms satisfy them, yet they may not hesitate to switch allegiance in politics or change their system of belief if they see personal advantage to themselves in doing so.

Sagittarians are sincere and straightforward in love. If their marriages are successful, they will be faithful spouses and indulgent parents; but their innate restlessness will inspire them to use even the most satisfying ménage as a base from which to set out on their travels. They need to feel free and are often faced with the choice of allowing their careers to take over their lives at the expense of the love of their spouse and family. Sagittarian women are the counterparts of their men; even if they have no career to rival their love, they find it difficult to express affection and may run the risk of being thought frigid.

In other personal relationships they are reliable, seldom betraying any trust given to them. They can, however, be impulsively angry and both male and female Sagittarians know how to be outspoken and exactly what expressions will hurt their adversaries most. On the other hand they are magnanimous in forgiving offenses and are responsible when looking after the elderly in the family.

They are natural teachers and philosophers with a talent for expounding the moral principles and laws which seem to explain the universe. This gift enables them to be successful churchmen on the one hand and scientists on the other. The law and politics also suit them, as does public service, social administration, public relations and advertising. Travel and exploration naturally appeal to such restless souls and, if their opportunities are limited, they may find something of travel and change of scene in the armed forces or through working as a travelling salesman.

The vices to which Sagittarians are prone are anger they tend to flare up over trifles; impatience – they want to rush every new project through immediately and demand too much of colleagues who cannot work at the pace they require; and scorn of the inadequacies of others while expecting fulsome recognition of their own efforts. They may in one sense deserve recognition, because in completing a major project they will sacrifice their health and family relationships; in their family’s eyes they may merit condemnation.

Something more about Sagittarius

The animal associated with your sign is the centaur. The Greek love for the horse led to the ennoblement of the centaur in myth and legend. The Centaur Chiron was known for his wisdom and healing abilities. Nessus was killed by Hercules for trying to rape a woman under his charge, and other centaurs were renowned for their weakness for drink. The centaur symbolizes mankinds dual nature as an intellectual creature (the human half) which was also a physical animal (the horse half).

Sagittarius is a fire sign. Other water signs forming the triangle are Aries and Leo. Thus Sagittarians are most compatible with Sagittarians, Arians and Leos. Other signs they are compatible with are Cancer, Virgo and to some extent Capricorn.

General Description of Scorpians:

Scorpio is the eighth astrological sign in the Zodiac and is considered a “feminine”, negative (introverted) sign by most modern astrologers.

Scorpio represents the element water and individuals born under this sign are usually fixed in nature meaning obstinate and stubborn. One of the first things that you notice about Scorpions are their eyes; they will be very intense and totally hypnotic. Infact, many people find it very difficult to stand steady under a Scorpio’s constant gaze. His eyes seem to be penetrating your soul, knowing your deepest secrets and desires. The truth is, more often than not, they are.

Scorpions live life on their own terms. They are liable to promote their agenda on every turf that they get. Understand that your Scorpio friend will know exactly what to say, before he opens his mouth. Scorpions are opinionated and can defend their opinions to the end of the world. I say this from personal experience, and if one of my scorpio friend reads this he’ll know I’m talking about him when I say, that you simply cannot win over a Scorpio in a verbal battle. You will be the one to surrender infront of this stubborn, not ready to listen anything against his opinion person.

Scorpions have a big ego. They know what they are and what they are not. It doesn’t matter what you think about them. They are immune to both comments as well as compliments, because they know whether they are right or wrong.

A Scorpio has perfect control over his emotions and he always retains his faultless poise. You will hardly see his emotions being reflected on his face, whether it’s a blush or a flush. Infact, Scorpions deliberately practice a vacant look. The same goes for their body posture also, you will hardly see them pacing around in nervousness. However, behind this impeccable composure is their torrid inner nature.

Fierce determination is a typical Scorpio personality trait. He has a strong willpower and is not the one to accept defeat easily. The characteristic profile of a Scorpio also tells us that he is honest, to the point of hurting someone. If you have asked for his opinion, you will get the brutal truth, without any sugar coating. He never gives false compliments and does not know how to flatter. However, if he does say something nice to you, be sure that it is truly sincere and is coming straight from the heart.

If you ask a Scorpio for a favor, it will be either a simple ‘Yes’ or ‘No’, not something like ‘I will try’. If he really likes you, he will go out of the way to help you. A Scorpio is extremely loyal and will go to the length of laying down his life for his loved ones. He has an exceptionally good memory. He never forgets an act of benevolence and always remembers to repay it.

Similarly, a Scorpio also remembers any pain caused to him, though the reaction may differ. Scorpions are the most prone to self-destructive behavior, from all of the twelve astrological signs. This is solely because addiction lures them, every step of their way. They do nothing in moderation (more like, don’t know what it means) and this leads them into an obsessive compulsive way of life.

Scorpios make great leaders. They have the leadership, magnetism, passion and power, to tide them over problems. They have the determination, intuition, independence, persistence, intensity, creativity and skills to land them into high positions. On the other hand, they are dogged with obstinacy, secretiveness, resentfulness, jealousy, obsessiveness and wet melancholy. Their bossy, selfish perception also gets in their way sometimes. They have a tendency to be rude and bitterly sarcastic, that needs to be curbed if they are not to alienate people.

If you love a Scorpion, don’t provoke his jealousy. If you socialize a lot, don’t date one. Don’t take this bit lightly, for a scorpion is not jealous with a capital J, he is jealous with the entire word written in upper case and made bold. If he has nothing to be jealous about, be assured that he will make up such scenarios.

Scorpio loves to play with danger. At the same time, he is interested in religion and curious about all the aspects of life as well as death. If you are close to him, you will feel extremely protected and cared for. He is also fiercely possessive of what he believes to be his. If a Scorpio really wants to do something, it will never remain a dream forever. He will find one or the other way to get what he wants. He is very passionate about everything around, even his home. However, beneath his tough exterior is a gentle heart that knows how to love and care.

General Description of Librans:

Libra is the seventh astrological sign in the Zodiac. In astrology, Libra is considered a “masculine”, positive (extrovert) sign. Libra is represented through a picture of scales, or a balance. This is the only sign of the zodiac to be represented by an inanimate object,all the others representing either humans or animals.

Many modern astrologers regard it as the most desirable of zodiacal types because it represents the zenith of the year, the high point of the seasons, when the harvest of all the hard work of the spring is reaped. Librans too are among the most civilized of the twelve zodiacal characters and are often good looking. They have elegance, charm and good taste, are naturally kind, very gentle, and lovers of beauty, harmony (both in music and social living) and the pleasures that these bring. Librans are sensitive to the needs of others. They are very social human beings. They have good perception and observation and their critical ability, with which they are able to view their own efforts as well as those of others, gives their work integrity.

Librans crave the exchange of ideas, conversation and chatter, and if all this takes place in a social situation, even better. The Scales will look at all sides of an issue, then make a careful and deliberate decision once they’re sure it’s the right one. The sense of justice and fair play attached to those born under this sign is remarkable. Librans enjoy the leader’s role and will work hard to be worthy of the privilege.

It should come as no surprise that the Scales like things to be in balance — the checkbook, their lives. Librans revel in beauty and harmony and are often striving for perfection. This quest can lead to bouts of indecision, for although Librans love to please, they hate to make the wrong choice!

Librans thoroughly appreciate money and what it can buy: the best that life has to offer. Fortunately, there is usually enough cash around to keep the Scales in the style to which they’ve become accustomed. It’s comfort and luxury which the Scales crave, and they also feel it’s their divine right!

Those born under this Sign are attractive and charismatic, and as a result, are accustomed to having things come to them rather easily. This could make for a poor work ethic, but then Librans would rather work at creating a beautiful world for those around them!

They may make you wait, but Libra is a great friend to have. Libra hates being alone, so expect your friend to be a bit demanding of your time and attention. They’ll make up for it, though. Libra will be able to talk their way into the swankiest restaurants and hottest clubs. If you ever need anything, they know exactly who to call, and the person on the other end will feel honored to help them out. Even if they do need to stand in front of their closet for hours, whatever they wear will be in perfect taste, and you can count on them to help you look just as chic.

Librans want to be liked, even loved, by those who cross their path, and it can be very hard to resist the Scales when they are at their most charming and magnetic selves. It’s not unusual for Librans to possess an easy grace and sense of style and move languidly throughout a room. Behind that pretty facade is a smart, often smoldering soul who knows how to get what they want, and would love nothing more than to do so fairly and justly.

The negative Libran character may show frivolity, flirtatiousness and shallowness. Librans can shock everyone around them with sudden storms of rage. Their love of pleasure may lead them into extravagance; Libran men can degenerate into reckless gamblers, and Libran women extravagant, jealous and careless about money sometimes squander their wealth and talents in their overenthusiasm for causes which they espouse. Both sexes can become great gossipers.

Librans can be surprisingly energetic, though it is true that they dislike coarse, dirty work. Although some are modestly content, others are extremely ambitious. In theory, Libras are peace-loving. In practice, they can quietly stir up all sorts of trouble with their ways. Because Libra enjoys balance in their lives, they seek the middle ground. In the process, they may end up trying to be everything to everyone. This is where their reputation for untruthfulness comes from.

In their personal relationships they show understanding of the other person’s point of view, trying to resolve any differences by compromise, and are often willing to allow claims against themselves to be settled to their own disadvantage rather than spoil a relationship.

General Description of Virgos:

Virgo is the sixth astrological sign in the Zodiac. It represents fertility or production. Even in prehistoric times, this Zodiac Sign was perceived as both a mother and a virgin. The Virgo character is precise, refined, and a lover of cleanliness, hygiene and order. Conventional, with a rather reserved manner. They are usually observant, shrewd, critical, and patient.

Virgo people seek complete realization of the mind, being logical, practical and methodical with an intellect which substitutes the instinct. In other words, these people have a very strong instinct for things or you can caal it a gut feeling but a pretty strong one and most of their decisions are governed by this feeling. This is an unassuming Sign, but one which rules hard-working individuals who are prepared to serve unflinchingly and give of their hearts.

Quietly reserved, Virgos are polite and soft spoken people. Unassuming, outwardly cheerful and agreeable, they can be sensible, discreet, wise and witty, with an understanding of other people’s problems which they tackle with deftness. Virgos prefer being friends with people who are achievers in life. Virgoans focus primarily on the emotional and material world with particular attention to sensitivity and depth of feeling

More concerned with the outcome than the process, Virgos lack spontaneity. They are meticulous planners, considering every detail and its effect. There is seldom much room for emotional involvement because the mind is always engaged and dominant. What they lack in passion they make up for in preciseness.

Virgo is the critic of the Zodiac…the analyst and the purist. Individuals ruled by this Sign are the servants, custodians and perfecters of culture, in search of complete realization of the mind. They are logical, practical and methodical, possessing a strong sense of order and organization, coupled with a love of technological advances and anything associated with the state of the art.

Those governed by this Sign of the Zodiac are nothing short of perfectionists. They want their environments, as well as their lives, to be neat and tidy. They excel in sorting the “wheat from the chaff” and delight in planning, sorting, classifying and storing. Usually very serious individuals, Virgo people are untiring workers with a strong sense of duty. Their need to serve and be useful is so strong, that they often suffer greatly when it is hampered in any way.

Virgo natives search constantly for worthy goals to pursue. Self-perfecting individuals, who are punctual and reliable, those ruled by this Sign frequently reside alone, feeling that nobody could possibly wish to live with someone who is not yet perfect enough. In addition, they are often their own worst critics and aim for the highest standards.

Virgo individuals tend to “nag” somewhat, but that is truly only an indication of the affection these natives have for the object of their “nagging.” Basically shy and modest, those governed by this Sign are prone to hide their deep sensuality behind a rather cool and critical exterior. Nonetheless, these are friendly souls, though somewhat reserved and thoughtful.

At their most negative, Virgo natives can be pessimistic, depressed or even destructive. They are blessed with powerful creative drives, but such drives are often handicapped by the need to control and perfect. At worst, the inherent order-loving nature can make them cold, introverted, moralistic, compulsive about personal health and cleanliness, obsessed with organization and mired in petty details. The Virgo quality of perfectionism can sometimes turn to cold-blooded ruthlessness and, on occasion, those governed by this Sign, having an object in view, will stop at nothing to attain it.

These are individuals who are ruled by the mind and will invariably give their love slowly and with immense seriousness. They dislike overt displays of emotion and grand gestures of attention, which causes them to retreat within themselves in order to escape. Once the heart of a Virgo has been captured, then the loved one becomes a receptor to all the feelings and passions that this individual has been keeping inside. On occasion, even more expectations and conditions may be piled onto a partner simply because that mate is now holding Virgo’s cherished feelings and dreams. When in love, natives of this Sign are devoted, loyal and nurturing.

Clearly visible characteristics :

* Warm Hearted
* Creative
* Arrogant
* Egoistic
* Loyal
* Fun loving
* Practical
* Stubborn
* Bossy
* Pompous

As the fifth sign of the zodiac, Leo represents the fifth stage in the evolution of man and his place in the universe. Here, the dominant need is to develop man’s creative urge. Creativity is not entirely an emotional urge in Leo, it is also an expression of ego. The mind and heart are united in Leo to represent man’s ultimate individuality. When their egos are turned inward, Leos become self-centered and tyrannical. Seeking to gain attention (consciously or subconsciously), they love to play the hero.

The Leo type is the most dominant, spontaneously creative and extrovert of all the zodiacal characters. They are uncomplicated, knowing exactly what they want and using all their energies, creativeness and resolution to get it, as well as being certain that they will get whatever they are after.Leonians think and act bigger than others would normally dare; the ambitiousness of their schemes and idealism sometimes daunt their followers, their practical hardheadedness and ability to go straight to the heart of any problem reassures those who depend on them.

Leos are stubborn and impervious to changes not of their own making. They are however, able to accomplish things in life because of their tenacity in sticking with projects when others lose patience and stamina. Even when confronted with irrefutable evidence of the foolhardiness of their ways, Leos can stubbornly cling to bad relationships and wrong ideas because their egos simply will not allow them to admit being wrong. However, their tenacity becomes a valuable asset when it is demonstrated as loyalty to friends, or as patience and determination to succeed in completing a worthy project. They have powerful intelligence and are of a broad philosophical, sometimes religious, turn of mind.

The astrological symbol for Leo is the Lion. As king of the jungle, this animal represents the regal disposition of the Leo personality. Their dignity cannot be assailed. If insulted or abused, they rarely forget the slight unless their detractors sincerely and humbly request forgiveness. Leos generally have opinions about everything and not a bit of reluctance in expressing them. They must have the last word and, as far as most of them are concerned, it is the only one that counts.

Their faults can be as large in scale as their virtues, and an excessively negative Leonian can be one of the most unpleasant human beings imaginable, displaying extreme arrogance, autocratic pride, haughtiness, and excessive hastiness of temper. Fortunately it is rare that a Leo is so undisciplined as to give way thoroughly to a rather long list of vices, and their tendencies to them are usually balanced by an innate wisdom. Those who are afflicted with them also have the intelligence it takes to consciously and actively overcome them.

It is easy for pleasure-loving Leos to become addicted to rich food, and as they get older they find themselves putting on weight. Their gregarious nature makes it hard to enjoy or stick to boring or solitary physical fitness routines, but they may not mind dressing up in flashy gym outfits and joining an exercise class. Dancing, swimming, and tennis are favorite activities, though they are eager participants in sports of all kinds. When engaged in team sports, however, they can make too many grandstand plays, forgetting that they are just part of a team.

In his or her relations with others the Leo type is open, sincere, genuine and trusting. Outgoing, spontaneously warm hearted and plain spoken, though never lacking in kindliness, Leos are more disillusioned than the average if let down by those they trust. They are not good judges of character and are inclined to favoritism and an exaggerated faith in their followers which too often ends in disappointment.

Some more interesting facts about your sign:

The male lions are not particularly good hunters, the main work is done by the females when the male drives the prey in the direction where they are hiding, although the males insist on eating their share before the females. Hunting occurs at night or cooler times of day, the hotter hours are spent resting in the shade. Only males grow a mane, which can take up to 5 years to fully develop.

General Description of Cancerians:

The Cancerian character is the least clear-cut of all those associated with the signs of the zodiac. It can range from the timid, dull, shy and withdrawn to the most brilliant.

Cancerians have a fundamentally conservative and home-loving nature, appreciating the nest like quality of a secure base to which the male can retire when he needs a respite from the stresses of life, and in which the Cancerian woman can exercise her strong maternal instincts. A typical cancerian loves to be with his family and would decline many a party invitations just to be with his/her loved ones.

That does not mean that they are unsocial. When they are in the mood, Cancerians can be the very life of a party with their contagious sense of humour, attractive personality and crazy laughter. They can set the dance floor on fire with those moves. But there’s a time for everything for this lone creature. Because when the party is over, this person prefers to return to his/her cozy home and lie silently in his/her bed with his loved ones.

They prefer to spend time with themselves. There might be two reasons for this. One, they love introspection or self-realisation that gives them a deeper understanding of themselves and other creatures around them. And two, when they’re alone, they’re at their creative best, which is a very strong quality in them.

Cancerians are very attached to the people who manage and are lucky enough to create a space for themselves in their heart. They’ll go to any extent to spend time with them, protect them, shower them with love. This can sometimes be irritating for the receiving party, but they’ll nevertheless do the same, because they beleive that you belong to them and they to you. But during that one moment of irritation, be careful not to say anything that might even slightly be categorised as rude. Because, while they can give a cranky answer back if you’re not so close to them, they can get deeply hurt by the slightest rise in your tone of talking to them if your someone dear.

And once, they’re hurt, they’ll retreat into a space where no-one except themselves can reach them. They’ll dodge calls, avoid talking to you or discussing the matter, at the same time desiring and needing lots of affection and assurance that you love them. And after some time, when they have self-healed themselves, they’ll be their normal sweet adorable self again.

Beware of the Cancerian’s swirling moods. They can irritate you as hell when they’re at it.

Cancerians generally prove to be excellent cooks, and one of the reason behind it is that they love food. Any kind of it. But usually July born people suffer from digestive problems or problems in the abdominal area.

In their personal relationships they are mentally a mixture of toughness and softness, often emotional and romantic to the point of sentimentality in their fantasies; but in real life and in marriage, their loving is not so sentimental but tenaciously loyal. Both the
Cancerian man and woman love unreservedly, giving much and asking little in return – in fact, one of the most important lessons they have to learn is how to receive gracefully. They are too easily influenced by those they love and admire, and swayed by the emotion of the moment. They are also loyal friends, often doing much more for their friends than they do for them.

Cancerians have a retentive memory, particularly for emotionally laden events which they can recall in detail for years afterwards. they are strongly governed by childhood memories and since they live intensely in the past in memory and in the future in imagination, a chance meeting with someone for whom they had an unrequited love, even if they thought they had conquered the feeling, will easily rouse the emotion all over again.

The crab is a nocturnal water creature that is well equipped with its massive claws to defend itself and survives very well in the ‘wilds’ of the underwater world in which it thrives. They have also been prized for food throughout the ages. Crabs come in a variety of ’styles’ and species and are found in most of the oceans of the world, as well as in many inland waters. Being a sea scavenger, the crabs help mankind by keeping our waters cleaner.
