Sagittarius the Archer

November 23rd through December 21st

Sagittarius is completely free of malice. He blurts out his shockingly direct speech in total innocence. The fact that he usually adds insult to injury when he tries to fix it also escapes him. He means well. His unique combination of wit, intelligence and fiery drive usually brings the archer straight to the winners circle. Both male and female Sagittarius are oblivious to their own blunt speech. In fact everything they do is honestly done. Pretence and deception in any form appalls them.

Physically you can recognize Sagittarius by a fairly large skull, high broad forehead. Features will be open and cheerful; inviting friendship and the exchange of ideas, and the movements will normally be rapid. They will often make wide, sweeping gestures, which may be dramatic and vigorous, but possibly not graceful. He'll stride purposefully forward, head high and trip over something.

Jupiter eyes are bright and alert. The archers are either very tall and athletic or shorter than average, with strong sturdy bodies. Many of them have a stray lock of hair which keeps falling over the forehead like a horse's mane.

Sagittarians are normally restless. They hate to sit or stand still. The archer is physically conspicuous, if only through his obvious confidence and his disregard for conventional behavior.

He loves animals passionately.

Ordinarily people born under Jupiter's influence fear nothing. The typical Sagittarian is attracted to danger ' in sports, his job or his hobby. They love speed, fast cars, planes; even roller coasters draw them magnetically.

Sagittarius is totally unaware of the affect when his direct honesty compels him to speak. The Jupiter person, on the other hand, is crushed ands dismayed at his own lack of discretion when he discovers he's really cut you. What is on the archer's mind and heart is almost instantly on his lips.

Typically this sun sign is warm and generous and has lots of loyal fiends who love.

Few people can resent the archer for very long because he's transparently free of harmful intent.

Most archers sincerely try to cheer you up. At least that's what they start put to do, but sometimes it falls a little short of the good intention.

Besides now and then Sagittarians can come up with a statement that sends your spirits really soaring and make up for all the rest. They can offer profoundly wise counsel.

This is a fire sign so most archers are extroverts, talkative and forward. There are a few who are painfully shy and timid, but even these are full of original ideas ' and they are just as blunt. In fact, the quiet, fey Sagittarians with the reclusive, meek ways can dream the biggest dreams and aim for the highest goals. Introvert or extrovert, the archer is a promoter at heart. The e rare one, who doesn't say much, could be planning something really spectacular to the world.

Most of the time the typical Sagittarian is happy and gregarious, but his temper can flare like a rocket if he's pushed around by people who abuse his natural friendliness or who get too familiar. Rebellion against authority and stuffy society is also common. Sagittarius will never run away from a fight or call for help.

High spirited Jupiter people can't stand to be accused of dishonesty. After an especially fiery display of temper, the typical Sagittarian will feel remorse and try to make amends. The archer usually speaks and acts first, and considers the consequences later.

Many Sagittarians seek the stage. Show business is full of archers.

There's a strong religious streak in Jupiter men and women, especially in their youth. As they grow older they can be inclined to question former faiths and search for a perfection of values. Sagittarian love to travel, at least one suitcase is kept packed and ready for instant use.

You'll always notice something childlike about the typical naïve. Brave optimistic Sagittarian. He refuses to accept the seriousness of life, though some of them manage responsibility with admirable conscientiousness in later years. Still , they are never truly happy when they're burdened by it. Jupiter natures rebel against confinement, and too much of it can bring on serious illness.

His sensitive areas are the hips, lungs, liver, arms, hands, shoulders, intestines and feet. Love of sports and the outdoors may bring accidents through reckless over activity. He gives into sickness reluctantly, and usually recuperates with amazing swiftness. Life seldom defeats these people permanently. They believe that tomorrow will surely be better than yesterday and today is pretty interesting.

Every Sagittarian is something of a gambler, unless there is a cautious, conservative influence in the natal chart. Stock market real estate and casinos attract Sagittarians.

Both the timid and forceful ones will take a chance on love anytime. But they often stop short suddenly when marriage is mentioned. They think it over , then go ahead and make a mistake after careful consideration.

The most unpleasant traits of some Sagittarians are a tendency to violent temper , a love of too much food, and drink which can lead to obesity or alcoholism, mental brilliance stained by burning sarcasm or extreme eccentricity and the inability to keep a secret. But none of these need be permanent flaws.

The Jupiter housewife will adopt the homeless orphan or the lost animal.

The archer will take on a great cause with blind devotion and believe that the possibilities outweigh the shortcomings, an attitude that results from his brilliant imaginations and progressive thinking. He never fails to present his view with cool, reasonable arguments. The fire is always ready to leap forth.

He's a formidable foe, because he aims straight when he takes the time to focus on the victim. His arrows then rarely miss their mark. They are dipped in clever wit and sharp enough to pierce the strongest armor.

A few December people are genuinely funny. It's curious fact that when most of them tell a joke, the timing is slightly off. The audience will roar and the jovial Jupiter soul will think everyone is laughing at his great sense of humor. To see this is an hilarious experience.

Male or female, the archer can either behave in such a slap dash fashion or pretend to have such unassuming manners when he chooses, that you may get the impression he's not intelligent or he's timid. There are a few December born people who occasionally exhibit eccentric reclusive habits, but that just gives them more opportunity to sharpen their intelligence into genius.

Although Sagittarians have fantastic memories they remember every detail of books and movies, they can forget where they left their coats. Most of them constantly keep loosing gloves, car keys, and wallets.

A Sagittarian can never successfully tell a lie. No one believes him for a minute. Deceit is unnatural to the archer.

His metal is lustrous, soft, malleable tin that's barely affected by moisture. Turquoise suits him.

Whether he's bold or backward, the true nature of this generous idealist is merry. When he aims straight, he shoots higher than man can see ' past the stars ' to the place where all the dreams are really born.

Sagittarius man:- the idealistic enthusiasm and curiosity of a Sagittarian man is contagious. Sometimes his innocent exuberance can get a little out of hand.

There's always a crowd around him. That's an obstacle. You'll have to push your way through all those people to get near him. This man is an optimistic supreme. He's so optimistic that he believes in his enemies even. That kind of optimism can be dangerous. It's really just another term of blind faith.

He's not a misty dreamer. His dreams are always scrutinized by Jupiter's intelligent logic and compelling curiosity.

His soaring imagination can cause him to fall down or go busted. But wonderfully lady luck has a way of rescuing him in time. He could go prospecting in the hills, bring back a bag of rocks, find out they are not gold, cry awhile, and discover they're uranium.

Naturally with that kind of luck, he's optimistic. There's always that day when a rock is a rock, but the typical Sagittarian recovers quickly from such crushing blows. Your Jupiter man is very much that way about love. He's lucky. When he hasn't, he recovers quickly. He discriminates against dishonesty. But that's about all, which is why he has so many friends and well wishers. Enemies are a few, but far less than the number accumulated by other sun signs. People who have stung by his frank remarks may glare at him and feel like strangling him, but they usually come around realizing his harmless intent. The sin of the Sagittarian male is tactlessness and thoughtlessness, never deliberate cruelty.

He can say outrageous things and if you're in love with him, he may get away with it.

Even after his victims explode in indignation, they return to be the Sagittarian's close friends again, when their anger cools. That should show you just how much danger you're ion with this harmless chap.

The Sagittarius male lives his romantic life on a surface level, but he's honest about it. Sagittarius seeks casual relationship and sometimes they can get so casual , they are downright promiscuous. You'll welcome his frankness. You won't even flinch when he tells you how many affairs he's had and what he expects of this one with you, all very logically and clearly. He won't knowingly tie a legal knot with a lie in his heart or on his lips, but somehow he can get himself involved in a flirtation which tangles itself onto a proposal and have to run to avoid the altar. Since he's a little clumsy he may trip and she'll catch him before he gets too far away. In that event he'll think over it and illogically decide that she appealed to him physically or mentally. He'll give in, get married, and the seeds for another Sagittarian divorce have been planted. His normally reasoning powers seem to desert him when he's romantically trapped.

He's a flirt, that can't be denied, but he's not looking for sex alone. He likes variety and mental stimulation. Lots of Sagittarians get accused of making passes at every good looking receptionist or pretty girl they see. You can see that unjustified suspicion is annoying to the archer. In all fairness, most of the time, he was just being friendly.

Don't be jealous, don't be suspicious. Give him lots of rope if you want to hang him eventually. Don't question him, weep, nag or threaten to leave him. Smother him with freedom. Imagine how refreshing that would be to him. If you take life in the same spirit he does, and take people as you find them, you have the basic requirements of being his kind of wife-woman. just be what he wants. Be wide awake, let him direct and dominate your energies. Love sports, be generous, affectionate, and enthusiastic, go camping and don't try to keep him locked up in your pantry making fudge every night. Make it clear he can't keep you all to himself either. Let him know, you're a free spirit, just as he is. Never throw water on his fiery ideas. That way he'll tell you honestly some lovely night that you are just about everything he4 needs in a woman. Once he's gone that far, then tell him just as frankly that he's okay. It's time to make a decision. Point out that you like him so much you'd even consider marrying him, if he'd promise nit to interfere with your freedom.

After you're married you probably won't have in law problems. Many Sagittarians are shockingly disinterested in family ties. They don't accept the theory of loving blood relations unless they deserve loving. Even those who are fond of their parents and brothers or sisters manage to keep a healthy distance. They visit and show warm affection, but they never expect relatives to interfere with their private lives. Better see that your own relatives don't meddle either.

Keep your suitcase packed. You'll be doing a lot of traveling. Keep yourself busy and give him as many nights as he needs. Never question his honesty. When he does something wrong, he'll almost surely tell you. Practice facing his frankness, if that tomorrow ever comes, and be prepared to know he still loves you. Be as practical as he's about human emotions. You'll be surprised how strong love can grow in such honest soil. Truth has a way of encouraging permanence in a relationship.

Since he's a sports fan, he'll probably expect you to watch all the big games on T.V. with him. But he'll also take you along to all his many social activities if you're pretty and fun and you like people. Sagittarians can't stand droopy clinging women who aren't good mixers. He'll be proud of any special talents you have. And do try to have one or two. Read lots of books, and be prepared to defend a few of his causes, especially the lost ones.

He may be a little extravagant and he'll like an occasional game of chance. The same Jupiter impulse will make him pretty generous about your spending money. If he's a typical archer, he probably won't mind if you want to work to buy yourself extras.

Expect a little fortnight criticism, often painfully lacking in tact.

He'll enjoy the children more when they're older, but babies and toddlers might puzzle him a little. They usually love to take the youngsters on outdoor excursions. He may be closer to the boys but he'll be tender with the girls. They'll find him more of a pal than a father image. Now and then his frankness may disturb them when they need privacy. Children are sensitive about their secrets and their feelings may suffer from his curious questions and plain spoken observations.

He'll probably be strict only if they tell a lie. Don't ignore him for the little ones.

The archer thinks with both his heart and his mind. He won't always be wise. Sometimes he'll be foolishly courageous. He'll stumble and fall, then get up and try again. But you'll forgive him for almost anything, because he'll set your heart free with for almost anything, because he'll set your free with a very great gift- an honest love.

Sagittarius woman:- she's not always going to say the kind of things you want to hear.

She'll always be a little outspoken, because she sees the world exactly as it is. It's not everyone who can apply clear, reasonable logic to every situation, and retain the happy faculty of believing things will get better or else deciding to accept them for what they are.

Sagittarius females are regular Pollyanna. It will cat when she tells you she wishes you would make more money, but then she'll add, "of course too much money can make people selfish. May be it's lucky that you're poor." It's a sort of left handed optimism but you'll get used to it. This girl will never lie to you; sometimes you may wish she would.

She will probably live alone. Sagittarius girls are very independent and both sexes have a strange aloofness to family ties. They travel so much, they don't get home often enough to know their families well. They are restlessly on the go.

When you want her to do something, ask her. Don't tell her. She enjoys being protected, but she doesn't want to be ordered around. Not her mother gets away with that. She dislikes being bossed, especially in public when she's testing you for firmness, be firm. Jupiter women can't stand weak men. A Sagittarius woman has no intention of giving up her individuality for any male. Many a Sagittarius girls mistakes friendship for love and love for friendship. If you're one of those old fashioned men who prefer evasive ness and timidity in your woman, you'd better look for another partner. This young; lady has bright, frank ways with men. How she feels and what she thinks are identical with how she acts and what she says. Her outspoken bluntness naturally causes misunderstandings, and a good share of fiery battles, let alone hurt feelings, but it doesn't crush her spirit. Jupiter pride comes to the surface and rescues her in a crisis. Inside she may be weeping, but she'll employ such clever wit in answering the questions of friends about the break that they'll decide the whole affair was a harmless flirtation on her part.

All Sagittarians show a raging. Righteous anger when their integrity is doubted.

Impasse like this are impossible for her logical mental process, and often lead the Jupiter girl into a never ' never land of romance, not knowing where the fire might may lit up, or why , and afraid of being burned when it does. Then she'll play it too cool and be unable to take any one seriously, lest of all herself. She'll flirt openly, but with out any intention of making it a lasting or a forever thing, and gain the reputation of a cold heartless female.

A fire sign is never cold or heartless.

Like the male Sagittarian, she's a little skittish about wedlock. She's breezy and unconventional in her relationships with men. Since she considers herself your equal, she may copy your mannerism, as well as wear your sweater. She also likes sports and camping as lots of Sagittarian females do. Not that all Jupiter women are offensively masculine by nature. They can be the softest, most feminine women you ever met. It's just that she pals around with so many men you get used to seeing her in the crowd. Since she's so scrupulously honest and overboard, she may be a little careless of her reputation and contemptuous of the hypocrisy demanded by society. She knows her morals are above reproach, and that's all that matters. Naturally she's wrong. What other people think matters very much to a female reputation.

The truth is she is a trusting child at heart. Her outlook is so naïve it makes her vulnerable. Forget about how cleverly she argues and how startlingly logical she can be. All that has nothing to do with her heart. Her mind isn't under discussion. It's bright and intelligent, and well able to take care of it self in emergency. But her heart is defenseless. It falls down and gets bruised quite often.

She's slightly clumsy. The sunny Sagittarian disposition ca melt the hardest hearts. The typical Jupiter girl has a large appetite. She likes good food, nice clothes, and when she travels she likes to go first class. Sagittarians are extravagant by nature. Money for the sake of money doesn't interest them.

The Sagittarian girl may be in show business. If so, start out on the right foot by expecting her to put career first, until she tires of it. After a while she'll grow disgusted with the hypocrisy and artificial glitter she finds all around her in the world of show business, and she'll come running home to try domesticity with some one who is real, you. Someone who believes honesty is beautiful and deception is ugly. You again.

Vacation with her when you can, otherwise let her go off and trust her. She loves you.

You may think she's lacking in sentiment. You are mistaken. She'll cry rivers at sad movies and read poetry with wet eyes. She's probably saved every note you wrote her and dried flowers you brought her.

Sagittarius girls are acutely bored by the confinement of dusting and mopping. She'll hate it all with purple passion. When she has a home of her own, she'll probably swallow her distaste. She'll prefer that you get her a maid if you can possibly afford one. If not, she will doggedly keep it shining. She needs to be surrounded with beauty and cleanliness to be true to her. Most Sagittarian women aren't exactly ecstatic in the kitchen. But she can whip up a mean, fancy dessert when she's trying to cheer you out of the blues. Her own moods can be terrors, but they are rare and they last so briefly you'll hardly notice them. This is not a woman for a brooding, melancholy man. Gloom and pessimism can actually make her physically ill.

Her children will probably adore her. Once she's over her initial fear of responsibility, she'll cope with diapers and daily baths like an efficient nurse. The little ones will get a good dose of her cheerful optimism and outspoken remarks. She'll read them funny stories with happy endings, and make them on sudden , impulsive picnics in the woods. Her youngsters will be well dressed and bright manners. Her honesty will mark their characters.

You'll have a lovely hostess. No one entertains as graciously as a Sagittarian woman. There's a quality about her sunny, outgoing friendliness that makes people feel deeply welcome.

The Jupiter woman is an incurable idealist. As long as you call her soul her own, and don't make her feel tied down, this woman will give you triple bonus of her loyalty, her trust, and her affection.

Capricorn the goat


December 22nd through January 20th




It's any thing but a breeze to grasp the Capricorn character.



You can find him just anywhere he can advance or improve himself. Anywhere he can get ahead and further his secret ambition. The Capricorn is not a carefree party type. You may not even notice him at first as he quietly and calmly watches all the flashy, pushy, charming, aggressive and brilliant personalities around him. Every one in the group will seem to have superior equipment for the race. Lots of them are bluffing, some of them are afraid, but they're all highly polished, and the Capricorn doesn't seem to have a chance against them. Yet he will win.



It's not always easy to recognize the physical characteristics of this sun sign. They can be stocky and muscular, thin and wiry or plump and soft. Generally, Saturn people have straight, lank, dark hair, dark steady eyes, and swarthy olive or tan complexions.



There's always a faint aura of melancholy and seriousness surrounding the Saturn personality. None of them completely escape the saturnine influence of stern discipline and self denial. Many Capricorns have strong feet and wear sensible shoes. Their hands are capable, their voices usually soothing and even, and you'll probably notice a gentleness that flatters and persuades. they are as tough as a keg of nails. They hammer away persistently, relentlessly, managing to digest insults, pressures, disappointments and duty.



They court success; they respect authority and honor tradition. The Saturn ruled submit. They agree, they adapt. Capricorns allow others to walk in front of him. But he often gets there first, against all logic. He's careful to avoid obstacles. He seldom stumbles. He keeps his gaze fastened ahead, and his feet firmly planted on the ground. Jealousy, passion, impulse, anger, frivolity, waster, laziness, carelessness ' are all obstacles. Let others trip and fall over them.



They won't let their emotions blind them to the facts. Don't defy the conventions if you want the respect of the goat. Public scenes and raw, naked, uncontrolled passions embarrass him.



An occasional Capricorn will forget to hide his ambition and refuse to work unless he's at the top of things. Then he becomes a stubborn goat who insists on starting at the top of the ladder, where, he feels he belongs. Naturally such an attitude produces a gloomy, pessimistic, cold and selfish person who's impossible to satisfy.



Young Capricorns are typically more contended than older Capricorns. The Saturn ruled youngsters idolize ancestors and elders. Respect for the wisdom of age and experience is ingrained in the saturnine nature.



You'll seldom find a Capricorn nose struck in other people's affair or the Saturn tongue wagging in gossip. Normally they are content to mind their own business. They won't often handout unsolicited advice, but when you deliberately seek their practical wisdom, they won't hesitate to give it with stern overtones. They'll expect you to accept it too. The Capricorn has learnt to cope with duties and responsibility and to tolerate frustration. If you can't follow his examples, he'll waste little time trying to teach you. Allow you only a pinch of sympathy.



The practical goat rarely leaps into business or marriage unless he's prepared. Old age is constantly on the saturnine mind. Even the young Capricorns instinctively enjoy visiting dotting relatives. They might have some property or a few bonds. You may think such an attitude is cold and calculating but to the Capricorn it is sensible.



In childhood, Capricorns are inclined to be weaker, sicklier than other youngsters, nut both strength and resistance to disease increase with age. The sober, temperate nature gives him amazing endurance. Saturn people should be able to avoid doctors and hospitals, but they don't, because fear, uncertainty, worry and gloom are deadlier than germs. Capricorns who want to avoid sickness should have plenty of outdoor exercise and develop a more positive, outgoing personality. The fresh air of the country and the fresh breeze of tolerance will work magic. All goats have sensitive skins. There may be nervous rashes, allergies, roughness and chapping, some peculiarity of perspiration, enlarged pores and acnes. Stomach disorders from incompatible foods and mental distress are common, broken arms and legs may occur. The knee caps, joints and bones are vulnerable areas and psychosomatic paralysis, severe headaches and kidney infections are further fruits of saturnine melancholy.


They will either have beautiful, white strong teeth or constant problems with decay and continual visits to the dentist.



He's such a shy, sweet soul, a trifle stubborn, perhaps but gentle about it. He seems so harmless. All the while Capricorn is using your own weakness, conceits and jealousies to make him stronger. The goat submerges his ego to gain what his ego truly deserves ' the position of the real leader.



The discipline and formality of jet black and navy blue ' the solid practicality of brown ' the deep honest dreams of dark green ' these are the quiet colors of his enduring rainbow. Ruby brings luck and lead is his metal.





Capricorn man:- he has a self made brick wall around him. He's shy but strong and tough. He's pleasant but he's fiercely ambitious. Like the legendry, silent, earthy cowboy, the Capricorn man seems to prefer to be alone. He doesn't. Not really.



Secretly, Capricorn yearns for adulation. In his private dreams, the goat is an incurable romantic. But Saturn changes his nature. The stern planet of discipline demands of him calm behavior, practical actions and serious intent. Sometimes he'll cover his frustration with unexpected and incongruous humor.



Turn a steady, dependable Capricorn inside out, and you'll find a merry gentle dreamer who longs for the free wind to blow his hair, and finds the sweet fragrance of the compliments intoxicating. Who hungers for excitement and thirsts for adventure.



He impressed you as a man who would rather see his name in the social register than in your diary. Now you discover that he has a heart as warm and friendly as a cozy wood fire on a winter night.


Those surprises are a part of his inner nature. Chances are he'll never let all those dreams of careless rapture escape and run around loose. You can't change his basic saturnine personality.



You can hint that you think there are banked fires beneath his conservative manner until he has the confidence to let a flame or two leap out. You can tell him you his kind of dreams more colorful, because no dream is as bright is as the one that really happens.



Capricorns pretend they can live without compliments. Actually he desperately needs to be told he's good, clever, handsome, desirable and interesting but since he'll seldom make his need visible, he gets few. Consequently he may be a little rusty, and won't know quiet what to do when someone openly admires him. So he covers his embarrassment by making a wry joke or ignoring it. The impression is created that he hates compliments, so he gets even fewer. It's a vicious circle. He needs to be seen as the truly great guy he is. Nature and the stars keep him from advertising.



This man is a late bloomer. He's as serious as an owl in his youth, but he'll relax gradually as he matures. With a Capricorn you may have your enthusiasms smothered a bit at first, but just think what you have to look forward to. Your Capricorn lover won't run off to Paris with you inn the spring of your romance, but he may take you to see Tajmahal by moonlight forty or fifty years later, when other men are complaining of creaking joints.


Capricorn reverse aging process may suggest to you that there's catch in the faithfulness department. He's a safer bet for fidelity than most other sun signs, because the Capricorn man practically burns incense at the family altar.



It wouldn't do to insult his mother or be cool to his brother. Be prepared to love your in ' laws. Family disputes make him morose and gloomy.


You may bump into a Capricorn who has open contempt for his relatives or who has bitterly cut family ties and never looked back. Scratch the surface of his independence and you'll find a deep, emotional wound in his past.



They usually fall in love later than most man too and they seldom marry before them ere settled in a career.



The goat will pick a girl who will be a good mother, a good cook and a good housekeeper. After that, she'll have to dress well to impress his business associates and his friends and preferably be a cut above them in background, manners, breeding and intelligence. He'll make a quick check to see if she is beautiful or if she appeals to his physical senses. But he'll never marry you if you don't pass inspection with his family.



Since Capricorns are always nervous in the presence of opposite sex, an occasional one will awkwardly hint at off- color situations or appear to be tough , rough and callous. A typical method of hiding his embarrassment and curiosity about the purple passions of more aggressive people.



A nice gift for your Capricorn husband would be a book of poems, the more romantic the better.



He thinks you should know how he feels about you since he supports you, and pays you the tribute of allowing you to bear his children, sweep his floors, and polish his trophies.



As a father, he'll be a father. He'll always be at the head of the table. He'll demand respect and obedience and he'll insist on routine and discipline. But he'll repay it with honest devotion, even self sacrifice; probably approve of big birth day parties. Capricorn fathers are highly unlikely to spare the rod and spoil the child. He'll se that they do their homework, with a few trips to Water Park when it's necessary. His own sense of organization and dependability will be empathically conveyed. It certainly won't hurt the youngsters. Remind him that parent hood can be fun as well as a serious responsibility. Teach the children to give him generous goodnight kisses and encourage him to take them for fishing or swimming. If he's a little strict, remember that they'll profit in the long run, as long as he doesn't over do it. When the grand children bounce on his knees, he'll turn shockingly permissive. Capricorn grandpas make great baby sitters.



A Capricorn man will seldom marry in haste and repent at leisure. He's more apt to marry at leisure and repent in haste. Most Capricorn marriages are solid but if the goat makes a mistake, he'll walk out abruptly and his wife won't get a second chance. Capricorns abhors divorce, so it won't happen often, but when it does it's final.



Your saturnine husband may regulate love making to a schedule, along with shopping, correspondence, doing his banking. The practical Capricorn is interested in the physical side of love long after other husbands resort to poetry to express their emotions. After he's retired, he'll have more time to develop his technique of affection. That's better then insurance, with a Capricorn husband ' insurance against a rainy day, insurance against loneliness and insurance against the blows of a sordid, ugly world. He won't be a fiery lover who courts you with starry eyes and passionate, flowery speeches. But he'll protect you from all your feminine fears. He's a tough guy with gentle heart.






Capricorn women:- there's no such thing as a typical Capricorn female. A Capricorn woman may decorate the society columns, smile demurely behind a political candidate husband or pour mysterious liquids into test tubes. But whatever she's doing Saturn will rule her actions and her secret aims.



She can be ultra feminine, flirtatious and charming enough to make a man feel like he can protect her from the cold, cruel world. Or she can be icy, quiet and aloof, challenging you to be clever enough to win her superior hand. Whichever personality she protects, underneath her womanly wiles or her practical sensible manners, she has the same goal ' a steely determination to snag the right man who can become important, make her proud and be a good father to her children.



So many Capricorn women are career girls; you might think love and marriage would always be a second choice. Capricorn aims are - security, authority, respect and position. Some of them get it by writing books, lecturing and painting or composing music. It's surprising how many Capricorns of both sexes have unusual artistic talent which stems from an innate sense of balance and harmony.



There's nothing flashy about the Capricorns. You'll never see her loudly or obviously pushing and shoving for first place. Wait, see who gets the promotion.



You may think she'll never sacrifice her career for marriage. Just give this girl half a chance to be asocial leader, and the mistress of a well run house hold, and you will see how quickly she looses interesting her job. If you need her to she'll gladly continue to working to help you climb up the mountain of success. She won't be lazy. Otherwise she's happier enjoying her position as your wife, provided, there's enough financial security.



One of the most typical and delightful things about this woman is her natural breeding and grace of manner. Unless she decides to reveal her background you'll be convinced she comes from an old line family and was turned out by one of the best finishing schools. Such is the Capricorn built in sense of social grace and conservative, conventional appearances.



She seems to be more even tempered and emotionally steady than actually she is. The truth is that she's subject to many moods. All women are subject to moods, but the Capricorn girl can have some really black and long lasting ones. Saturnine gloominess, pessimism and depression are much more deeply rooted than that. These women do not accept teasing lightly. Keep it at a minimum. To be honest, they find it impossible to see the joke when they're the victims. Praise her often enough to make her realize you know her true values.



There is plenty of physical desire under there cool Capricorn surface. Once she's decided you are the right man and the finances are secure or your ambition is sufficient, she'll be as warm as a cuddly panda, affectionate and even passionate. Build a firm foundation under your house if you plan to carry a Capricorn girl over the threshold. Make sure there's plenty of insurance and the mortgage is paid off or will be soon.



She'll be extremely aware of etiquette, and she'll lean toward quaint customs. things must be correct and tradition must be observed at all costs. She may have an inconsistent habit of wanting to shop in the most expensive, exclusive stores, yet insisting on a bargain.



Capricorn women have a fresh beauty of their own. You'll rarely find one who's not unusually attractive. Yet they are timid and unsure about their appearance. They need constant reassurance that they are pretty. Although Capricorn females hate dishonesty in all forms, they're not above lying about their ages.



The man who marries a Capricorn woman marries her relatives. Many times the Saturn female is the sole support of her family, financially or morally or both. She may care for an ill parent with devotion to the point of relinquishing the idea of marriage completely.



Frequently Capricorn find themselves burdened with distressed or invalid relatives, and the typical goat will never let love cause them to neglect such obligations. You'd better start right out by planning to have a guest room or two for visiting relatives. But there is a reverse benefit. You'll have a wife who is kind and considerate toward your own family. She's a kind of girl you take home to meet mother, and mother approves of her immediately. Capricorn girl if she's a typical Saturn woman will make an excellent wife.



The house of a Capricorn woman often looks effortlessly spotless and smooth running. She may not be a way out dreamer or a follower of occult mysteries. Once she has the solid facts she's able to see the romance and poetry in the most ordinary situations.



Hers is an earthy kind of beauty that can make even the gross and ugly seem lovely with sheer usefulness.


Great music stirs her deeply.



She's a true romantic, with greater imagination than the scatterbrains with unreal fantasies. Take care of the food and rent and then pursue the dream, whatever it may be, is the Capricorn motto. Also make sure that the dream is worth perusing. She sees nothing glamorous or magical about failure. She'll be a tireless worker for the poor and the defenseless. Saturnine sympathies are usually organized, seldom scattered. Female Capricorns are natural leaders of women's club.




She'll probably instill both thrift and a respect for quality in the youngsters.



The children will be expected to be polite to relatives and elders and they'll probably learn excellent manners. They won't be allowed to willfully disobey. her children will. Her children will get a courteous listening ea. She may be a little strict and unsympathetic to their growing pains, but she'll be a fascinated audience of for their achievements. After they become teenagers there may be a few barriers when the Saturn conservatism clashes with youth's liberalism. She may learn the hard way that she can't dictate their friendships and confine them to acceptable people.



Capricorn females have sensitive skins, they don't wear much make-up. Lots of them are allergic to it. Some of them startle you with lovely complexions, firm features and bright eyes at the age of eighty and older.



Patiently help your Capricorn woman overcome her jack of personal confidence. Stubbornness may be one of her vices, but she's not a whiner or is a nervous nag. She'll push you toward success, yet be tender and devoted. In spite of her modest, often gentle ways, she'll know just how to twist you around her little finger.

Scorpio


The scorpion, eagle or gray lizard


October 24th through November 22nd



People often draw back visibly one someone says he or she was born in November, murmuring "oh you are a Scorpio", either in frank fear or in awe and respect.


Look at the eyes. They can be green, blue, brown or black, but they will be piercing with hypnotic intensity. He'll outstare you every time. It's a fool proof identification of the Pluto personality. Scorpio eyes bore deeply into you, mercilessly, as if they are penetrating your very soul.



The tone can be velvety soft, husky or sharply cutting. The speech slow and measured or clipped. Scorpio has total ego. he know what he is and he know what he is not. Insult roll right off his back, and compliments don't move him an inch. He needs no one to tell his vices and virtues.


He'll show a cool composure of his nature. if you ever come across a chattering Scorpio whose eyes wander, chalk him up as an astrological exception. Some November people with heavy planetary influences of restlessness in their nativities. There are very few of nervous kind. The nature can be modified by other natal influences but slightly.



Most Pluto people have powerful physiques. The features are noticeably heavy and sharp, and clearly drawn. The nose is quiet prominent, sometimes beak shaped. Ordinarily the complexion is very pale, almost translucent. The brows are heavy and knit together over the bridge of the nose. There is a crackling electric vitality about the very presence of scorpion. The males will have a heavy growth of hair on arms and legs, often with a reddish cast. Most Scorpios have darkish hair and eyes. The poised surface calm of the Pluto character is carefully designed to hide the boiling inner nature.



No matter how his emotions are stirred, you'll rarely see them reflected on Scorpio's frozen immobile face. These people proudly and consciously practice a blank expression. They command their features to remain firm. And their features obey. You'll seldom see Scorpio give himself away by blushing or flushing, frowning or grinning. Smiles are rare but genuine. There will rarely be any jumping, sudden starts or nervous mannerisms. He'll never flinch with embarrassment or swell up with pride. Reaction is always kept at a bare minimum. Scorpio's art is to probe your nature and motives relentlessly and he's an expert at it.



There is a particular type of Scorpio who moves and speaks rather quickly, and appears to have an open friendly manner. He's really just playing a game with all his happy talk. Inside he's as tough and determined as the more poised and typical Pluto people are. Perhaps he has been a shade more dangerous. be on guard with all Scorpios. They are just not soft or naive. Some Scorpios realizing that their eyes expose their inner intensity wear sunglasses even at night.



if you are sensitive don't ask his opinion or advice. You'll get a naked brutal truth. You asked him he'll tell you. Scorpio will not pay a false compliment to gain a point or win an ally. It's beneath him to flatter. when he says something nice to you, treasure it. Scorpio naturally attractseither fiercly loyal and dedicated admirers or envious spiteful enemies. but even the later give him grudging respect, and you'll notice they're careful not to challenge him openly. Yet there's a haunting sweetness about these people and often a gentle sympathy with the sick and despairing. Scorpio's touch can e cool and tender as well as hot.



A few Pluto people fall somewhere between eagle and the stinging scorpion, these are the grey lizards. Self sacrifice becomes the neurotic concern about self with them. Psychic abilities become fearful apprehensions of the lurking evils which may strike at any moment. Forceful courage twists itself around and instead of seeking the ruthless revenge of the stinger scorpions or raising above such bitterness like the eagles they bitterly withdrawing tangled hatreds at each minor injury, hoping fate will punish their enemy's almost unconsciously willing destruction without direct action.



The great lizards fail to draw on the power of Pluto in their natures. Power could lift them high above all the unfortunate circumstances that surround them. They see the dark shadows and lie dormant. Still Scorpio can never slide deep enough into the slime of bitter depression to completely lose the power of Pluto. It's never too late for the grey lizard to transform into an eagle.



Typical eagles have no fear. Even the average Pluto man and women bravely faces anything from physical; pain and poverty to ridicule and failure with a proud contempt and complete confidence.



Scorpio is intensely loyal to friends. The Scorpio solider leaps instantly and instinctively to brave the bullets and drag his buddy to safety. Some times it seems Pluto people unconsciously seek violence deliberately as a challenge to their strength.



Scorpio never forgets a gift or kindness and it's richly rewarded. He also remembers an injury or injustice. There are different ways of reacting. The eagle will crush the enemy, win the fight and leave the defeated to go his way. Scorpion will sting, then plan destruction, then sting again. He must totally destroy the enemy or at least top him. With the grey lizards Pluto revenge takes the form of bitterness held inside for years, which eventually causes deer melancholy or actual, lingering physical illness. Seething Scorpio resentment turned inward and never expressed, poisons with deadly certainty. Turned outward, it can create guilt because stinger scorpion is ashamed to harm the defenseless, when all is said and done. It should be turned neither inward nor outward. It should be conquered by looking up and forgetting, like the eagle ' never looking back in anger and retaliation.



The Scorpio can destroy his body with excess melancholy or hard work. But he can also build it back at will from a critical illness. Scorpios are seldom ill but when they are it's usually serious. a long rest and a change of attitude with peaceful acceptance replacing burning resentment , are the best cure. The chief areas of attack for germs and accidents are the reproductive organs, the nose. The throat, the heart, spine, back, circulatory system leg and ankles. Varicose veins and accidents in sports are common. They should fire explosive. Noxious fumes and radiation. yet you'll find lots of them seek occupations that flirt with danger along these very lines. Some times they have chronic nose bleeds, or a surgery is performed on the nose for some reason.



Scorpio is deeply interested in religion, intensely curious about all phases of life and death, passionately concerned with sex and violently drawn by a desire to reform. Yet he's also dedicated to family ties and love, and gently protective of children and weaker souls. He can be a saint or a sinner.



His hypnotic appeal pierces through his audience, transfiguring them. He's fiercely possessive of what he believes to be his yet his ambition is never obvious. He quietly waits for the chance to move ahead all the while he serves knowing he's qualified for the position and above him. He takes control slowly but very surely. The dark magical and mysterious power of Pluto turns desire into reality, withy cool, careful and fixed intent.



A morbid desire to know the worst of sick and depraved humanity can reverse the path to a life of medicine, where drastic treatments have a deep fascination for him. Many of the finest medical men in the world are inspired by Pluto to heal both the mind and the body, diagnosing and treating with strange, inscrutable knowledge.



Scorpio has born knowing the se4crets of life death, and with the ability to conquer both if he chooses. The ancient mysteries fascinate his brilliant mind. Out of his powerful empathy with human nature grows the outstanding detective, the great music composer, literature of depth and permanence, or the actor who projects with unusual dramatic intensity. Some times he lives alone and sometimes he faces the public with a mask of calm reserve and control, to hide his intense desire to win. In any profession of his choice he'll manage to top all his competitors.


one of the strangest pattern in astrology is the death of a relative in the family within either a year before or the year after the birth of a Scorpio. And when a Scorpio dies, there will be a birth in the family within the year before or the year after. It happens at least ninety five percent of the time. Pluto's symbol is the triumphant phoenix rising from its own smoldering ashes and Scorpio personifies the resurrection from the grave.






Scorpio man:- if you are in love with a Scorpio male and the word passion frightens you, put your sports shoes and run. Passion here, refers to the passionate intensity about politics, work, friendship, religion, food, relatives, children, clothing, life, death and any other category you can think up. A Scorpio man is not exactly what your psyche needs if you're repelled by emotional excess. Doesn't look back, just run?



He seems calm and steady. He's only bluffing with the surface cool. Inside his passions are red hot. After an experience of his heat your heart will burn for months, may be years, and first aid kits will do no good. Make sure you know where you are going and with whom.


If your sun sign gives you a fire proof nature, you may be able to keep the flames under control and have yourself powerful fire to warm your heart for a lifetime.



This man is invincible. Just behind his frosty reserve is a huge pot of boiling steam. If you're lucky, he'll keep the lid on tight for a lifetime, but a deep injury can blow it right off with brilliant explosion.



He'll bewilder you with his twin Scorpio traits of passion and reason he's master of emotions and intellect. He's also deeply philosophical.



Normally Scorpio will surround himse4lfwith luxury. He'll lean toward excess in food, drugs, drinks, and yes ' in love. Most assuredly in love.



These men have an explosive temper that can strike a life time wound. He not only enjoys winning, he has to win. Something inside him dies when he loses. A Pluto man normally practices good sportsmanship. Disappointment never shows on his features. His actions are rigidly controlled, including his romantic intentions.



Pluto people can be driven by curiosity to penetrate every dark corner of the human mystery.



Every Scorpio has his own law unto himself, and completely unconcerned what others think of him. He would like to be respected as a responsible citizen. None of his important decisions are hampered by the opinions of friends, relatives, neighbors, or enemies. Not even by you.



Scorpio man operates best under adversity. He's at his forceful courageous best. He seldom wallows in envy or self pity, and he doesn't happen to think that life owes him single farthing. Instead of pouting in anger, when real troubles hit, he meets them head on.



Scorpio loves mystery and there's not a single one that crosses his path he won't solve in detail. Being stripped naked of your mystery can leave you feeling a little exposed.



He has high standards and won't choose his friends loosely. This is a marvelous rare kind of man who can share rough humor with men and can turn into a ge4nmtle and tender lover.



He can be cruel sometimes for his own reasons and he may even exhibit a sadistic sense of wit by describing you as fat, dumpy, shrewish, and square in front of your friends. Grin if it kills you. Scorpio is compelled to conceal his motives, in love too. Later, when you're alone , he'll tell you what he really thinks.



It may take a while to adjust to his personality, but it will eventually toughen you up. if you're too soft, you'll bruise easily with a Scorpio.



When it comes to jealousy, he could burn and erupt like a volcano. You're a very brave woman, but better pack your own jealous streak in a trunk and lock it. It will make no impression at all to drench him in angry treats or reproachful recriminations.



Women will find him irresistibly attractive. Keep remembering that if any one is strong enough t5o resist such continual flattery and temptations,, it's a scorpion.



He'll probably be a stern father the children won't get away with an ounce of lazy or frivolous behavior. He'll teach them to respect property, but he'll also teach them to respect themselves. He'll love them with as much sincere passion as he puts into every thing else he cares about, and won't stand for any nonsense. He'll protect them when they fears , but they'll soon get the message that he expects them to stand alone. If they borrow money from him, he'll charge them interest on it, but it's for their own good. As adults they realize how lucky they were to have his firm guidance. Often his children will find him gentle and funny. He'll joke and laugh with them, and give them a sense of freedom, but the line will be drawn and they'll know not to cross it. The children will secretly admire his strength to command and try to imitate it, but occasionally it works the other way. Then you'll have to remind him that affection and tenderness sometimes get more results than his normal, unbending, autocratic manner. Just remind him tactfully and respectfully. A Scorpio man will never allow a woman to dictate his actions. A Scorpio husband with a wife who truly understands him, will be tender sympathetic, considerate and repay her loyalty with the kind of love most women only read about and wish for.



Once the flame has been stirred and he's decided, he wants you. He'll hypnotize you right out of all your good intentions. You feel you can reach out and touch it. It may burn you only if you're over sensitive and scorchable. If you're patient and strong it will be like touching cool marble.







Scorpio woman:- the female Scorpio has a deep mysterious beauty. She's magnetic, proud and totally confident. But she has a secret regret; she was not born a man.


It's just that, unconsciously, she would prefer to be a man. Less restriction, more opportunity. It's the one secret she hides from herself even.


The true shade of her nature is dark maroon and not a pink, not a female color at all.



Scorpio woman have a scornful contempt for members of their sex who flop in the roles of sweetheart, wife and mother. A Pluto girl will control her desire to dominate. She gives a glopripous performance of womanhood. A Scorpio will subdue her drive and magnetize a man with the heavy perfume of her exotic glance. The Scorpio girl will walk towards you slowly, seductively and silently delivers her private message. These women look seductive in jeans, jodhpurs and sports shoes. May be it's her husky voice that creates the impression.



Her beautiful, mysterious eyes can read your mind so clearly, she doesn't need any extra trimming. Whisper something romantic that would melt another girl out of her senses and the Scorpio girl will simply give you an intense, penetrating look that will see right straight through to your real intensions. She's a human x- ray machine, so don't flirt. Never insult a Scorpio, it's just not healthy.



This dangerous femme fatale can hide her power of retaliation with a tremulous smile, gentle mannerisms and the4 most breathe less voice.



There's certainly no fury like that of a Scorpio female who's lost her normal, steady control over those inward, seething, Pluto emotions. She can hate with bitter venom and love with fierce abandon.



The Scorpio woman has a disconcerting gift. It's a peculiar form of black magic; you have very little chance to escape, once her eyes meet yours. Because of her mystical sixth sense, she can often recognize a future mate at first glance. Somehow she'll transfer this perception instantly.



She knows, what life is all about. A Scorpio woman can't excuse weakness in a man. She looks for ambition and courage. She wants a mate who can dominate her and make her proud. A high degree of intelligence is required to match her own excellent mind, plus more than a passing acquaintance with abstract philosophical wisdom.



Having once achieved closeness with a Scorpio female, you can be positive you're unique and unusual man. You'll be the most important interest in her life. If she's a typical Pluto girl, she'll boost you loyally and try to please you with passionate intensity.



She's brimming over inside with passion, though it's kept under rigid control by a poised, frosty attitude towards strangers. She's never just slightly interested. It's impossible for her to be detached or casual. She seldom likes or dislikes a play, a book, religion, furniture or people. She either bitterly resents or she intensely worships. If one of thes4e passions can't be aroused, then she totally ignores. Yet, through it all, she'll remain untouched by emotional storms, judging at least from her placid exterior, which always drapes itself around her4 after each nuclear explosion.



It's true that the Scorpio girl sometimes wanders into dangerous waters to penetrate life. Her search may indeed take her into some weird byways. But the typical Scorpio will emerge from any discovery still strong and pure.



She could be the keeper of quiet a few secrets. It's surprising how many dark deeds are confessed to Scorpios, though their own inner lives are marked "private ' keep out". She likes to hear secrets, but she'll seldom tell anything anyone had confided in her, not even to you.


She's not untruthful. a Scorpio woman will be incredibly loyal to those she find strong and deserving. The weak ones will never be honored by her glance. All Scorpios are highly selective in friendships; they'll keep the worthy companions through an entire lifetime. Sooner or later, she'll probably investigate some form of the occult and ancient mysteries and unseen worlds will eventually have her respect, though Scorpios can range all the way from religious fervor to total atheism during a lifetime.



A Scorpio woman need not be a legal wife to give wifely love and devotion. If circumstances make marriage impossible she'll love you and stay with you. in most such unusual situations, the relationship is real and honest above and beyond the shallow, selfish love of many legal marriages. the hypocrisies of society will never keep this courageous woman from seeking her deserver love.


Despite her strong individualism, she'll let you be the boss. She'll apply her talents to help you attain your goals. Your future will be important to her and she's not likely to insist on retaining her own career after marriage. She may fight you wildly in private, but she'll defend you fiercely in public. Your happiness will always come first. Unless there are adverse aspects in her natal chart, she'll patiently help you preserve until you get what you want. She'll expect you to aim as high as your abilities will reach. Anything less may bring on some sarcastic taunts and reproaches.



Their homes usually shine with cleanliness, taste and comfort. Spring cleaning is like a vacation for her. They love to dig into corners to see what they can find. Scorpio is unreasonably suspicious, even there's no basis of it. You can imagine what happens when she finds a real clue to possible infidelity.


It's no good being suspicious of her, no matter how many opportunities arise. There will be a goodly number of them because she never exposes her deepest feelings. Take her or leave her. You'll probably take her. It's almost impossible to leave her, if nothing else, she'll haunt you the rest of your life.


She makes an excellent wife for an army or navy man and a real jewel for a politician. There's no one she can't see through, no deception that escapes her.



In the budget department, Scorpio women are completely unpredictable, she'll enjoy money whatever she saves it or spends it on luxury. But this woman always lean heavy towards prestige. Scorpio females like power and they will sacrifice much for it. Your power will do, because Pluto allows being adept at living vicariously through others when it suits her. She's too proud to live amid shabby surroundings forever, and she'll become mighty sour and discontented if she's forced to do so for a long time. She'll either try to force a change in the family fortunes or she'll gradually retreat into the dismal world of the gray lizard, outwardly accepting and almost seeming to enjoy poverty, but inwardly intensely bitter.



One of the worst traits of both male and female Scorpios is a refusal to see any view point but their own when the emotions are involved. She'll probably fascinate every male in sight on occasion and you may have to sit by while they are mesmerized. It seldom leads to anything serious, but can cause some uncomfortable conditions. It can also lead to some explosive disagreements. She gets the last word. If you tell her a lie, she may tell two. The Scorpio sense of justice is as strong as the sense of revenge. She'll remember every kindness and give you back double for that. It works both ways.



With the children, her expression of love may lack certain tenderness and open demonstration. a Scorpio mother won't let the talents of her children go unnoticed or gather dust. She'll spend many an hour encouraging them toward higher goals, and be willing to provide any support they need. She'll teach them to meet difficulties with her own courage. Anyone who is a threat to the happiness of her children will be crushed. That includes her husband.



A Scorpio woman will some times nearly drown you in her passion for living. She's a little dangerous, perhaps, but undeniably exciting.

Libra the scales


September 24th through October 23rd



All you have to do with a Libra is to help him balance.



Librans love people but hates crowds; they go on patching quarrels but enjoy arguments. They are intelligent good natured and pleasant. They will talk a lot but are good listeners. Librans are restless but they seldom rush or hurry. There's a frustrating inconsistency to this sun sign. That puzzles the Librans themselves as much as it does others. There is always weighing and dipping. Libra is first up then down. He swings one way then the other.



Physically, there's no such typical Libra feature. You may notice a Venus dimple features are almost even and well balanced. They are pleasing but not noticeable. There may be a couple of dimples on cheeks or one in the chin, and if not in the face, their knees may be dimpled. It's strange but true.



Libra is in a habit of always balancing things with his arguments. He can discuss advantages and disadvantages of a thing all night long. Criticize something and he'll praise it, you found a book good, he will list its shortcomings, you found it dull and he'll count on virtues. Through all his logical discussions he'll try to remain fair. He seeks real truth, the exact balance that gives the correct answer.



Venus men and women dislike instant decisions. His harmonious judgments make an excellent strategist. His can calm angry tempers that make them smart mediators.



Their antipathy to take decisions is sometimes very painful. It takes a lot of time 'why, wherefore and whether to'. He doesn't likes to be hurried or pushed while he's deciding. Impatience is one quality most Libran cannot stand. But they will always immediately deny their indecisiveness. After taking a long time to reach a conclusion he'll carry his final decision with such conviction that he think himself very firm and decisive.



Few Librans are eccentric or show offs. They are normally honest in business deals. Libra would take his time to get a right start. They hate displays of anger and emotions though they themselves can be guilty of it when pressed too hard. most Librans have a fantastic ability to concentrate on deep subjects. They love books and you may find a good collection of books at their homes.



They love harmony of sounds, colors, poetry and are in the influence if arts.



His emotions are stirred by soft music and light, interesting conversations, good food and fine wines.



His metal is copper. Diamond and opal brings him luck. To truly understand Libra you must understand the riddle of scales. When the scales dip you'll see him silent, panic, weighed down with depression. When the scales balance, they produce a perfect harmony between his rich, cracking intellect and his affectionate, sympathetic heart.






Libra man:- a man with free advice, having the perfect solution to all your problems and an answer to every question you ask . But he may not answer to all your girlish dreams.



He'll never let you go. If you try to run he'll persuade you to stay with such logical intellect that you will easily submit. He'll smile at you and your heart will turn over.



The attraction of Libra is logical and real, not supernatural in any sense. It's hard to escape the magnetism of his purity.



You should be prepared for the times when his scales dip back and forth. You may try shouting, standing on your head or pushing him hard, all in vain. You'll have to wait until the scales balance.



Making up his mind is really strenuous to a Libran and once he's made it up he's liable to change it with no warning if he suspects he's made a mistake. That will make you wild and you may decide not to speak to him again, but it's a bet he'll smile and half of the work is done. These are impossible charmers. You simply can't be too careful. Steel yourself to turn your head when he smiles, stuff cotton in your ears when he starts his convincing arguments in that smooth as silk voice that makes the back of your neck tingle.



The word Libra and love are practically synonymous. The delicate strategies of cupid are inbred Libra talents. He'll try it on any girl and after her submission he's not always sure whether to propose marriage or leave her. The mental struggle begins and may make your charmer behave irrationally.



He won't lose interest in the opposite sex until he's at least ninety. No matter for how many years he's married he's capable to use his tricks and seldom fails. The art of love making comes so easily and early to Libra.



Libra hates to hurt anyone's feelings, though he remains unaware of the damage done. He hates to say no and do not realize that this indecision id more unkind than an outright break of an affair. If he senses he's being unfair to someone in his life their will be no end to his painful indecision. Being unfair is a crime to Libra. The reluctance to be cruel can push him into a mistaken proposal of marriage predestined for a divorce. or else his endless confusion can cause him to lose the love of his life. He walks on a two edged sword. Tossing out false sentiments is the cure for both.


There's a Libra impulse to weigh every third or fourth women for the possibilities of being his true love. They often mix friendship with love. For all his experiment he may suffer from a broken heart. Surprisingly he forgets all this with an insulting quickness. There will be no permanent damage done. It's easier to find a soft hearted, guileless Libra man in the clutches of a passionately determined female who has made him believe that deserting her would be a sin. Such a Libra can be a pretty miserable prisoner of love.



But most Libra man manages to keep free enough to enjoy romance to the fullest.



He'll be too interested in knowing your secrets and some how he will sense it. But often he misses what's going under his nose. Everyone will notice but he will not as if he does not see anything.



His questions do not have any inclination to figure the personal nuances or emotional tangles that lie just beneath the surface.


If you're a spend thrift, he'll simply deduce that you spend money like water and aren't a good credit risk. If you are stingy he'll watch to make an accurate appraisal. He's a judge, he only weighs facts. He argues with only abstract curiosity.



All this makes him trustworthy, but a little hard on your feelings. You can confide in him but he misses sensing your deep needs. He may not listen to your silent hopes to satisfy all your longings. He can be so intuitive about the abstract, so clear, open minded and open eyed deliberation and still be so aggravatingly obtuse about what makes you ache or thrill inside. But it's one of those inconsistencies you have to live with.



A typical Libra has a rather lavish hand with cash. He believes in spending it on objects or activities that bring beauty and happiness. His home will be a regular hospitality centre at the most any hour of the day or night. He does not like crowded places where the noise offends his sense of harmony. All Librans have an instinctive distaste for physical contact with masses of humanity. He likes intelligent sparkling people but when the group expands to over a couple of dozen he'll feel suffocated.



A disorderly home may lead a Libran amazingly to divorce. He does not like noises too high. Do not like the odor of cooking. He wants his house clean and cozy though he may himself scatter bits of paper on the floor. The Libra male hates confusion and he really needs harmony to remain stable.



Remember he's weak in introspection so you must be the analyst. It is necessary to keep everything in balance. He may feel unhappy with the dirt on the table or a certain painting, but he will never realize.


Pick up the papers and toys, spruce up the house, dab on your best perfume, turn down the television and you'll find a new man with totally changed attitude.



He'll be fair with his children. Libran father will discipline his children. His children may develop their debating qualities under his influence.


He does not starve for fatherhood to satisfy his masculinity, but when they arrive he'll enjoy the feeling. Librans of both sexes value their mate's first and offspring second. Just remember if you are in love with a Libra man, go and propose a marriage. He'll be released that you took the initiative.




Libra woman:- you can find a trace of the opposite sex in the most virile, rugged Libran male and Venus plays the same trick on the female scale balance.



She may be as dainty as a fluffy white bunny and she may whisper with gentle persuasion. She can dress skillfully and her hair can smell of fragrant cologne. But with all he femininity, sweet mannerism and lovely grace her mental process operate with male logics and she can match yours in any discussion. She can even top yours on occasions. She won't hide her sharp mind behind those soft dimples. Eventually you will be treated to a display of her brain power.



Most Libra women will air their clever wits any time a subject arises with the slightest possibility of debate. She'll turn on that unbearably delicious smile and you'll end up changing your mind as effortlessly as she changes her sex by taking a mans prerogative , then switching back to her original femininity.


You won't lose much except your pride and you'll hardly miss that under her magic. She's usually right because her final decisions are carefully considered.



She makes a great political worker, once she's made up her mind which side and which candidate is right.



Her tendency to argue is really based on a sincere desire to reach an impartial decision.



You can see the Libran female is nothing if not fair and committed to balanced judgment all around. Other women may toss off opinions that reflect their own individual natures and seldom care much about what you think or about a fair answer. Your opinion deserves as much respect as hers until the decision is made.



Most Venus girls work both before and after marriage. She loves perfumes, clothes, expensive perfumes, classical music. Libran women need plentiful sums of money to remove them from the ugliness of discordant surroundings which can make them emotionally and physically ill. But there is another reason she wants money. Her man. If there is one thing a Libra female treasures it's the man she's chosen to love, honor and manage.



Partnerships in both business and romance are her deepest needs. She doesn't like to work alone and she's literally incapable of living alone.


Marriage is joint venture and rules are almost strict as those in a corporate setup.


The typical Libra women have no desire to be a stone around her husband's neck. She simply wants to remove all the stones in his path.



The average Libra female is highly intellectual and has amazing powers of analysis. Which can be a real help in solving your business problems. She offers her wisdom and amiable suggestions. She can nudge you off the wrong track so gently that you will feel that this change was your own wish.



She'll never open your mail; she'll never reveal your business secrets to your friends or embarrass you in front of your boss. She is sentimental and as affectionate as a woman has any right to be.



She'll usher you with sweet glances, tender touches, warm hugs and frequent kisses.


Your home may look like one of those in the magazine adds. The colors will harmonize, and the furniture will be in good taste. Pictures will hang straight and meals will usually be served on time.



She likes to talk but she makes a flattering listener when you have a need for a good audience. This woman is soft and tough at the same time.



Her smooth manners and smooth ability to cool your fevered brow can lead you to think she's weak and helpless. If so, you're much mistaken. Open your eyes wide the next time there's a family emergency and see who keeps the boat from rocking. You'll need her helping hand at the helm when things get bad. She'll never brag about it or take anything except a large part of your responsibility. Be grateful she's so dependable. One of her most valuable assets is her ability to hide her sharp, keen mind behind utter femininity.



The children will be loved and tenderly cared by a Libra mother. They'll get a large chunk of her heart, but she'll never allow them to steal the corner she gave to you before they came along. If they disobey you she'll be angrier than if they disobeyed her. Youngsters will be sweet and clean as infants, neat and polite as adults. Libra mother is normally gentle yet quiet firm when the need arises. She'll never permit them to disrespect their father. She's a pretty soft pillow for their tears.



Her love for sweets may make her fat. There may be times when she's a little bossy and other moments when she talks your ears off. But these things will happen when her emotional scales are temporarily off balance. If one side is a little low, add some affection and it'll rise. If other side drops from the weight of too much sadness, lighten it with understanding and her beautiful harmony will return.

Virgo the virgin

August 24th through September 23rd

Virgo is the sign of the virgin but you can't take the symbolism too literally.

Virgos can be easily spotted. The gentle, attractive man in the corner will be a Virgo. Social gatherings are not his place. You can find most likely find them working late in the office. They are uncomfortable in crowds.

Virgos do not make sand castles. They do not day dream and at night they are too tired to wish on stars.

Virgo eyes are lovely, quiet and astonishingly clear. They sparkle with intelligence and purity of thoughts. Most of them are extremely attractive with delicate noses, ears and lips. Virgos are very conscious of their looks. You may find a Virgo primping in front of a mirror.

A Virgo is normally small, but he's muscular with strength more than his fragile appearance suggests.

They can tackle more work over a longer period of time than other tougher signs. Straining themselves may cause bad digestions and ragged nerves. Although, they are externally cool and capable.

Virgos are sincerely dependable and if they do not want to do something or do not want to go some where they'll pretend sick.

He has very precise idea of health, patience and little laziness and very few illusions about life and people. Love is not capable to blind him of shortcomings.

They dream very few impossible dream often they have the inconsistent trait of looking like dreamers.

They are suddenly annoyed by vulgarity, stupidity or carelessness. Most of the time, they are gentle and nice especially with sick people. Many good nurses are found to born under this sign.

Virgos are experts in telling you which remedy will be best for which problem. Usually they own a small drugstore for stomach ache, constipation, upset lever, acidity or indigestion. He's aware of each ingredient and how it works. Many Virgos prefer to take a particular soap or lotion which he uses when they travel. They may even take their water bottles. Don't laugh; they are conscious about their health.

They always mean what they say or what they want.

When these people form habits, they form habits and taking a vacation or traveling somewhere is no excuse for that habit.

His mercurial mind tends to bring order of chaos.

A Virgo may criticize you with hairsplitting arguments which will drive you crazy but if you're in a problem he'll also come quickly to help you. It's not his ego that is satisfied but it is his mercurial mind that cannot stand confusion or procrastination. He's the kind of guest who will happily help the hostess clean up after the party.

Virgo does not admit his faults and it seems as if he's unable to see his own weakness. But the truth is that he does see them. Try to tell a Virgo about his faults and he'll flatly deny.

Virgo becomes restless in crowd. He will project a sense of urgency as if he's getting late for an appointment. His facial expression, at the same time will portray certain tranquility like a mask. The nervous intensity seldom shows on the outside but it will mess up the digestive system.

These people love quietly and steadily. They are conservative in handling cash. Virgos like to help others with efficiency but shows intense dislike in taking favors from others.

They deeply fear to take obligations and this fear of dependence in old age makes many of them live economically to be called stingy. If they are financially secure they may spend a little freely although they'll be sure to get the full value of their cash.

He has no sympathy for beggars but he's generous when a friend is in trouble. Virgo may be miserly with his personal needs but he will give financial aid to those who really deserve it or he loves, Virgos work hard for what they possess and do not like wastage or extravagance.

He values time, so if you want to avoid his hair splitting criticism, be on time.

Virgos are sometimes accused of being selfish in spite of their readiness to serve others. But he won't go beyond the point of reasonableness and he knows to say "no".

Virgos are almost healthy. They take good care of their bodies and are choosy about their diets. They are susceptible to indigestion, chronic pains in intestinal areas, headaches, foot problems, pain in hips, arms, shoulders, arthritis, rheumatic troubles and sometimes liver and backaches. Many of them are vegetarians and if not they know what to eat and how it should be cooked. Even an average Virgo will be sure to wash his hands before a meal.

Virgos like cats, birds and small helpless creatures.

They admire truth, punctuality, economy and prudence.

They hate gushy sentiments, vulgarity, laziness and idleness.

His favorite colors are gray, beige, navy blue, shades of green and white.

Dark green jade and pure platinum bring him luck.

Once he's learnt to master life's complicated details, he can shape his own destiny.

Virgo man:- a love affair with a Virgo man will dump a warm sentimentalist on the cold ground and it can hurt. This man is entirely practical and materialistic.

Virgos are deeply involved with love from earliest childhood but not the Romeo ' Juliet type of love. He's concerned with devotion to family, friends and those weaker or more disorganized than himself.

They show love for work, love for duty and discipline.

Display of dramatic emotion, tearful declarations and sentimental affection leaves a Virgo man cold. It can even frighten him.

There are secret ways to Virgo heart. Virgos seek quality rather than quantity in romance. They have few love affairs which are destined to be unlucky or sad in some way. At such a disappointment he will bury himself in intense work, he'll stay away from the society and be twice as cautious as at the next opportunity.

Obedience to fate without struggling comes to him naturally. If fate declares a single life for him Virgo is prepared to accept it without regret or emotional trauma. So you may find many Virgo bachelors around.

Still in their quiet way, they can manage some very poetic love affairs. He can be the master of the art of seduction.

The Virgo man is a blend of sharp intellect and solid earth. The Virgo is detached enough to produce passion. His modesty and selectivity alone prevent promiscuity. Naturally a man is a man. And not all virgins remain virgin. They may fall into an earthy physical experience but these are exceptions. There is something clean and chaste about Virgo love.

He's very selective in love as he's in eating, grooming health and work habits. He knows very well how rare are the chances of finding his true love, but he'll not except anything less. If he ever involves in a superficial relationship it will not last long.

This man is difficult to stir emotionally. He can go for a long time without a permanent mate. You'll wonder if he's born without a heart. You may have to wait for a long time. Be patient, success will eventually came.

When he finds his interest he'll be shy about admitting it and he'll cover his true feelings with casualness. He will pretend to be disinterested. Don't expect him to respond with any great display of ecstatic surrender even when he's committed.

Once he's decided he'll tell you with simplicity. He'll give the warmth of his love over the years. He will show dependability. If he's truly in love he may mountains to bring her home. He's capable of big sacrifices. If his glass sandals fit you, you'll be adored like Cinderella herself.

Once you are his, he will show incredible strength in case of any emotional or material hardship. He'll never leave you at times of problems caused by bad finance, relatives or outside interruptions. He won't shower you with money, but you'll be supplied with necessaities.

A Virgo man has crystal clear memory and he'll probably remember special dates.

Virgo males are possessive in extreme. Even though, he does not make scenes of jealousy. His deep rooted possessiveness should warn you that a little freedom goes a long way.

Virgos are loyal and they dislike destroying family ties, but when their sense of decency has been outraged they won't hesitate to break cold in the divorce court. When it's over, it's over. Even his clear memory won't cause him to cry over past. He is able to discipline his memory as firmly as he does his emotions.

Virgos hate ignorance, stupidity and sloppy thinking. You should be smartly dressed with a reasonable brain under your neat hair style. Virgos look for women who are clean in body and mind and who dress well but not in extremes of fashion.

A Virgo woman never likes a pleasure seeking, selfish, mentally lazy woman. Not even if she is fairly sexy. He looks for a wife and nit a mistress in any sense.

Virgo men have no strong yearning for fatherhood. They don't require children for emotional fulfillment and they tend to have small families. Yet if he has children he'll never shrink from the responsibilities. He'll teach them his high standards of conduct and skills. He'll help them in their homework. He will lay a great emphasis on ethics, courtesy and good citizenship. Even if he's separated from his children he'll care for their education. His children will develop love and respect for books and learning. His children will be disciplined, he loves his children deeply but there may be a lack of physical expressions of love between a Virgo and his offspring. A serious effort is to be made to avoid an insurmountable barrier between them.

A Virgo wants you to fuss over his health. He'll do the same for you when you're ill. You may frequently face his cranky mood. Just leave him and do not argue. When it'll be over he'll come to you tenderly to make it up. Let him worry a little. That's a sort of mental exercise for him until it starts affecting his health. Divert his attention to his ears if you behave strategically you can look forward for a contended for future. He'll be reliable and pleasant, if you are tactful about his faults. No matter what he does try not to nag him? Get used to his habit of criticizing you and laugh it of. Once that resentment is out of the way you can relax.

Other wives may be jealous of you. You are married to a hard working , handsome man who's neat and tidy, remembers anniversaries and performs miracles with the checkbook. You have a husband who dresses well and is usually gentle and considerate.

Virgo woman:- again this sign representing virgin is not virgin. This is a woman with spotless womanhood. She's is unbendable and her spine is made up of stainless steel.

She's basically shy but she has all the weapons necessary and a determination to get happy. Wherever the path may lead she'll follow.

Virgo is not interested in any other kind but true love. She'll do anything, break any law for real love. A Virgo woman who recognizes her marriage as imperfect and finds a love without flaw. Won't hesitate to break her marriage. She hates to break the family ties but hates hypocrisy more.

She is the one who in the zodiac can be practical and divinely romantic at the same time. There's a white heat to Virgo love, once it is ignited that can put the passions of other signs to shame by its very intensity and singleness of the purpose.

She's a perfectionist, but that doesn't means that she herself is perfect. She thinks that no on e can do things better than her.

They also insist on punctuality. When you've annoyed her she may nag and scold you directly. Take flower for her, accept you are wrong. Do not argue. You can't win a Virgo.

The earth is her element she appreciates the creations of nature and the poise will soften for irritation.

Don't lie. She'll spot an elaborate lie by the smoothest talker. So keep your sorry words appropriate.

This girl has problems in accepting her faults. She's very good at giving financial advice or in handling budget.

She's concise and practical and she catches tiny errors. If you are dating a Virgo female brush up your grammar, and manners. If you are in a love relationship with a Virgo you'll start shaving twice a day, splash an after shave lotion, wear a fresh shirt, get your shoes polished before you go to date.

She does not like extravagance and wastage of money. She's a girl who can take care of herself.

Don't rush at her for something. In general, underplay the whole scene. Move in slowly with grace and taste. She's a great critic. She loves plays, concerts and books, but she's severely critical of the content. She's just critical of your tie and how you wear your hair, what you do or what you say. To criticize is as natural to her as breathing is to you. Do not criticize her. Her crystal clear thinking makes her inwardly aware. As aware of her own imperfection as she is of yours and she judges herself so frequently and harshly which is why she doesn't feels she needs any help from you.

If she is in love with you she will do all the worrying herself for you and even she'll enjoy it.

As for the matter of faithfulness, the emotions are controlled, but remember not non existent. If she loves you, you would be safe to a Virgo woman with the sexiest man on a desert island for a month. Well, they are human, not machines. Virgos have hearts warmer than people think and emotions can thunder with feelings.

Virgo woman is a perfectionist, but she can be the kindest, most generous and affectionate in the world. Consider her perfectionism a virtue instead of a vice. Even if she is irritating you with her criticism, there's a lovable about her. The modest manner and clear eyes had done their job well that is to change you for good.

She has no illusions; do not lie in front of her. To her truth is beauty and beauty is truth. She's tough enough at the time of crisis. The quiet courage and deep sense of responsibility of Virgo woman often acts as a magic glue to hold large families.

She may be a good cook. Your home will be clean and cozy.

For her children she'll be a strict disciplinarian. Virgo women seldom have more than two children. She'll be cautious about her child's mental, moral, and educational needs. If she knows that she's loved and appreciated by you, she'll be relaxed and give her offspring a plenty of warm affection. She'll be firm and inherit good habits. She has a gentle touch that makes the child knows that he is loved securely.

If you have a Virgo wife, you'll love to come home. Your home will be full of fresh flowers and deliciously cooked food. She'll nurse you like an angel when you're ill. She won't embarrass you by flirting your friend. She'll dress neatly and be able to talk any subject besides diapers and beauty parlor. You'll have her loyalty and devotion you deserve. She'll be conservative in spending your money. She'll keep your secrets and won't create any emotional scenes. She'll help you in your work and for all this its not bad to create good manners and keep your finger nails clean.

know your sun sign http://blogs.rediff.com/miriam/2009/07/02/know-your-sun-sign/ http://blogs.rediff.com/miriam/2009/07/02/know-your-sun-sign/#comments Thu, 02 Jul 2009 13:18:08 +0000 jyotsnaa

Leo the lion

July 24th through august 23rd

Leo tends to rule you and everybody else with his warm big, egotistical heart. Leo hates the dark and boredom equally, so you can find them in every bright sparkling place in the town. The Leo is not introvert but they may pretend to be shy. They have their strong, dignified and determined quality. When his pride is attacked you can hear this gentle cat roar from here to the zoo. It takes a brave soul to challenge him when he's defending his rights and his dignity. Some Leos soften with age, but the lion never really lowers his proud head. Never.

Physically this sun sign resemble a lion or lioness with a deceptively lazy look. they walk straight and proud with the smooth glide of a cat. The females combine grace with a hidden quivering intensity. . Females will have a soft, usually calm and steady nature. But remember she's a lioness always ready to pounce.

This sign may have blue eyes but most of them have deep brown eyes often round in shape and slightly tilted in the corners. The hair is dark or reddish and usually wavy. Complexion is ruddy.

The movements and speech are deliberate with a commanding air in them.

Leos have a strange effect on people automatically. People imitate the full stature to match the royal nature of this sun sign.

Leos love to give you free advice with superior and condensing manner. This love of teaching makes them prominent as educators, politicians and psychiatrists.

Leo is deeply wounded when you don't respect his wisdom and generosity. Flattery is his weakness. Lack of respect blinds him with rage and both extremes make him incapable of balanced judgment.

Leos are good at calming down troubled waters. They are capable of solving the problems in your life but they can't manage their own affairs with that ease. This makes him lovable.

Leo feels superior to everybody and often acts dramatically. He's a great organizer, a wise distributor of duties. Leo is not bashful in giving compliments. He can embarrass you openly and generously in giving compliments. And he acts the same way when you do not listen and obey him carefully. Whatever he says, he means. Be it good or bad it always leaves impression.

Leos are good hosts. You may feel to be treated royally when you are their guest. Superb food, fine drinks, beautiful women and soft music are the characteristics of leonine parties.

When it comes to romance, Leos are almost engaged every time. The fiery pride of Leo causes plenty of shattered love affairs and marriages. When his pride is injured by his mate he becomes fierce and wild. Still no one else can bear the blow with such dignity, faith and optimism.

The reconciliations are as frequent as splits in their lives. Forgiveness and sympathy are a part of his nature.

Leo men and women love responsibilities. Helping a weak, appeals them. Try to relieve him of his burdens or lend a helping hand and quickly he'll refuse. Accepting financial help from somebody is next to impossible for him. Leos are usually not cautious with cash. He will dress expensively; he loves luxury and feels good to spend on it. Leo will give money almost to everybody. If he's short of cash he may borrow it and then lend you.

Leos are prone to high fevers, accidents and violent illness. They may suffer from pains in the back or shoulder, spinal troubles, accidents to the legs or ankles, problems of reproductive organs and sore throats. They recover fast from illness. To stay in bed and be waited on flatters Leo vanity at first, but when they realize they are considered weak, he conquers his weakness.

Leos are fixed in nature. There are no in betweens for them. This sun ruled sign is either very careless or very neat and orderly. When they work they work, when they ply they play, when they rest they rest.

Leos carry the responsibilities very nicely, they never shrink. Always ready to protect the defenseless and helping the frightened.

Leo is a very loyal friend and a powerful enemy. Creative and original, strong and vital. He dresses in gloriously in his true colours. His heart is pure as his metal gold.

Lucky stone for a leo is Topaz.

Leo man:- most likely to be found on a stage or a in a circle of adoring friends and relatives , delivering flowery speeches. He hides proud dignity and arrogant vanity under his courteous manners and patience. So forget that you can ever rule him.

A Leo man is a brave, gallant, tenderly, protective and sentimentally affectionate suitor. He possesses a kind of instant possession. That is why you may not find many bachelors under this sun sign. Life without love is like a plug without socket for them. The sun forgets to shine for them when there is no romance.

When he's in love he'll usher you with gifts, expensive perfumes, flowers and fantastic love letters.

But his love is not trouble free. If you are his, you belong to him body, mind and soul. He'll tell you what to wear, what books to read, which friend are best for you and how to spend your days better. He'll want to know where were you for two hours. Whom you met in the way, what did they said. Even he'll insist you to tell him what is in your mind. He's jealous and possessive. He knows you're desirable. If his impulsive temper is aroused he may flatten your innocent male friends to the floor without any reason.

Get prepared to balance his irrational enthusiasm with calm reasons and willing to soothe him as he blows up problems into huge dimensions. He needs your stability to balance his irrational pride. You'll have to learn all this to save your relationship from being a field of battle.

Give up your career if you want him. Job comes last after him and his home. He won't tolerate competition from a male or an outside interest. If you are brave enough to accept these challenges you may go ahead.

After marriage you'll experience his generosity, he'll keep telling you how beautiful you look. He will remain faithful, he'll give you large allowances.

You'll lead an active social life with your Leo husband. Be careful and keep him away of auctions because he has an irresistible urge to bid higher than anybody on anything at any time. He may mismanage his finances.

You'll find a very nice habit in your Leo husband of fixing things. It may be anything your door knob, your CD player, your bathroom shower or even an engine. If every thing fails in mending it he will surely give a leonine kick to the offending machine and suddenly it will start working. There seems to be something mechanical about this sun sign. Lots of Leos can make their own furniture; they can build an extra room without any help. He may have his own workshop in the basement. All this keeps him contended.

The lion is the life of parties. He may wear a mask to get attention but regardless of his appearance he expects respect from his audiences.

He needs lots of love and admirations in courtship you'll have to keep him well nourished and contended with romance and affection. He'll probably be true to you, but his eyes may wander. Leo appreciates beauty and he may praise other females. You'd better get tolerant. If you decide to leave him just because of his light flirtations he'll be hurt and astonished. He may imitate anything from a heart attack to a tear stained farewell note to gain your sympathy. Leo men may have a great temper but they are not malicious.

In spite of their basic kindness they are so wrapped in themselves that they can be brutally frank and untactful.

He enjoys sports but as he grows old he'll prefer to watch them.

There's an odd twist to Leo's nature. He tends to marry beneath his status. This he does to satisfy his pride. But sometimes he makes a wrong choice which makes him a miserable husband.

It's sad but true that Leos seldom raise large families. Many of them have no children, are separated from them or raise an only child. Too bad, because they make warm and wonderful fathers. His young ones may be bored by his lectures but they'll soon find a way to flatter him in submission. He'll insist on their respect and get it but they'll persuade him out of anything. So you have to teach them real discipline. The children may resent his arrogant ways bit he'll always be remembered with affection in later years. Don't give the youngsters more attention than you give him, this will hurt his ego.

Leo has an enormous need to command and be loved by those he rules. Leo secretly fears he may fail or be ridiculed. It is a constant inner torture and a true source of his vanity and exaggerated dignity. Yet when his nobility has been aroused by a great cause, he knows no fear. Then he comes to know that the strength and courage he's been pretending to have has really been there.

If you can submerge your ego and build your life around him, you'll be adored and you'll never be lonely.

Leo women:- the lioness is sentimental. She's popular and she adores royalty.

She is born to lead but with such disarming warmth and such a beautiful smile, no one really minds.

Nature has fashioned the lioness with enough vivacity, cleverness, grace, beauty and plain sex appeal. Don't expect her to be a docile little maid, she'll never worship you. If you're permitted to love her she has honored you. She is like a luxury that demands a lot and not available in the bargain basement.

She may have a voice like whisper, gentle courteous manners and big, soft eyes that sparkle delightfully with her pride. You'll come to know that as cool and calm she appears she isn't when her ego is hurt.

Leo women cannot court a weak man, and in her mind she's not the weaker sex. She would like expensive gifts with taste. Yu should check your wardrobe before meeting her. She can't exist without flattering appreciations.

She admires your masculinity; you should practice ways of complimenting her.

Lot of Leo girls are athletic and enjoy sports but if you want to magnetize her take her to theaters, take her to glamorous and luxurious places. She loves groomed men and surroundings. A poor Leo woman manage to keep herself well dressed and make her house feel rich. Poverty depresses her and makes her physically ill.

A Leo woman is intelligent, witty, strong and capable. She may show her occasional arrogance and vanity. She feels herself above the common masses. A Leo woman who is loved and respected can be the kindest and most generous females.

Flattery is her secret weakness. She can't stay just confined at home unless you allow her being a constant hostess and an extravagant home decorator.

A Leo female makes a jewel of a wife. She'll spend hours in front of mirror with cosmetics. She spends a handsome amount in beauty parlor to have that feel of being pampered.

Leo women love to spend on fine feathers, furnishings for home or gifts for friends.

Her wardrobe consists of low cut evening gowns, dripping with sequins. She likes tailored cuts and rich materials. Her taste is usually excellent and expensive.

She'll be a superb royal hostess. Her guests are treated with a warm smile and her outgoing personality.

As a mother she'll love her children and lavish them luxuries and affection. It won't be easy for her to see their faults but when she does she'll be strict. She teaches them to polish their manners and be obedient to their elders. She will not hover them with her protectiveness. She'll lead her own life keeping a watchful eye on them. Many Leo women are working mothers, but their children seldom starve for affection. They usually manage to balance motherhood and career perfectly.

She doesn't appreciate familiarity with strangers.

She's always the centre of attraction among males. She feels proud to have masculine compliments and indulge in light flirtations. That doesn't imply that she isn't in love with you. She may admire your friends but you do not try to admire hers. She'll feel hurt.

She is a career girl and can be anything from actress to a surgeon. Be equal to her in income and mental level and that's the perfect formula to tame this lioness.

Cancer the crab

June 22nd through July 23rd

The moon's mysterious lunar influence causes tides of the ocean to flow in and out. Yet the moon doesn't really changes at all, it just seems to. The Cancerian with his changing emotions remains the same person.

You can recognize a cancer with his crazy lunar laugh. His laugh is contagious with a throaty undertone. It giggles and gurgles and finally a loud burst of laughter. No one likes a joke better than a Cancerian. Cancerian humor is never shallow and superficial because it comes from sensitive observation of human behavior.

His lunar humor is a cover of his fears. If a Cancerian is in a melancholy mood he can drown you in depression deeper than the ocean. His nameless dangers and harping inner voice keeps him haunting day and night. He may be in tears which are never crocodile tears.

When he's hurt he disappears into reproachful silence. Once he is hurted he won't answer his phone, or his mail. Cancer people seek retreat and solitude. Sometimes he may tend to take revenge but seldom openly. He usually does it secretly.

Sometimes his crabby mood makes him hate the world. When he's disappointed with life, he'll get over it when the moon changes.

Physically there are two basic cancer types. The first one has a handsome round face. Soft skin, wide mouth, circular eyes. The second type is more common. A large skull, high cheek bones and over hanging brows which make a permanent frown. Teeth are either prominent or irregular. Eyes are small and usually far apart. Some of them may be plump but most of them have a strikingly bony structure. The arms and legs may be extra long as compared to rest of the body. Shoulders will be broader than average. Most Cancerians have a little top heavy. This is quiet marked characteristic in females or they'll be flat chested.

All of the lunar people have expressive features. Emotions keep coming and going on their faces as they talk.

Cancer remember all the joy, despair, horror, compassion, sorrow, ecstasy he experienced. He never forgets the lessons life has taught. He values and collects antiques, old treasures and ancient relics. He's always curious about yesterday.

People automatically confide to Cancerians , his lunar imagination guess the part you hide. There's hardly a secret he can't strip naked, if he chooses. The typical crab doesn't likes to discuss his personal life but is delighted to hereabout yours.

Cancer will never give up a treasured object. That can range from a friend to a title or a position, from a photo to a worn out slipper.

When this human crab means business he imitates the tactics of a crab precisely. Cancer never go directly for what they want. They'll play shifting game in every direction until they notice someone else is about to have the prize. Then he'll quickly and cleverly leap forward and take hold firmly and refuses to let it go.

The crab's heart is soft at the core under its hard and conservative outer shell. If you are in a problem he cares and he wants to help. But he'll sit back, wait and see if there is anyone else who might move in first. When all the sources fail and no other help shows cancer will rescue the struggler at the last minute.

His gesture will be grand and generous. But he waits and watches before interfering. No one could accuse him of being impulsive.

Before an act the crab carefully calculates his actions on experiences. He needs the strength of an accepted precedent or the assurance of financial security as a foundation. That is why most of his ventures are successful. With a fiery moon signor a fire sign as an ascendant, occasionally he may gamble and if he fails, the misery sets in. cancer tends to brood over mistakes.

Cancer the crab

June 22nd through July 23rd

The moon's mysterious lunar influence causes tides of the ocean to flow in and out. Yet the moon doesn't really changes at all, it just seems to. The Cancerian with his changing emotions remains the same person.

You can recognize a cancer with his crazy lunar laugh. His laugh is contagious with a throaty undertone. It giggles and gurgles and finally a loud burst of laughter. No one likes a joke better than a Cancerian. Cancerian humor is never shallow and superficial because it comes from sensitive observation of human behavior.

His lunar humor is a cover of his fears. If a Cancerian is in a melancholy mood he can drown you in depression deeper than the ocean. His nameless dangers and harping inner voice keeps him haunting day and night. He may be in tears which are never crocodile tears.

When he's hurt he disappears into reproachful silence. Once he is hurted he won't answer his phone, or his mail. Cancer people seek retreat and solitude. Sometimes he may tend to take revenge but seldom openly. He usually does it secretly.

Sometimes his crabby mood makes him hate the world. When he's disappointed with life, he'll get over it when the moon changes.

Physically there are two basic cancer types. The first one has a handsome round face. Soft skin, wide mouth, circular eyes. The second type is more common. A large skull, high cheek bones and over hanging brows which make a permanent frown. Teeth are either prominent or irregular. Eyes are small and usually far apart. Some of them may be plump but most of them have a strikingly bony structure. The arms and legs may be extra long as compared to rest of the body. Shoulders will be broader than average. Most Cancerians have a little top heavy. This is quiet marked characteristic in females or they'll be flat chested.

All of the lunar people have expressive features. Emotions keep coming and going on their faces as they talk.

Cancer will never give up a treasured object. That can range from a friend to a title or a position, from a photo to a worn out slipper.

When this human crab means business he imitates the tactics of a crab precisely. Cancer never go directly for what they want. They'll play shifting game in every direction until they notice someone else is about to have the prize. Then he'll quickly and cleverly leap forward and take hold firmly and refuses to let it go.

The crab's heart is soft at the core under its hard and conservative outer shell. If you are in a problem he cares and he wants to help. But he'll sit back, wait and see if there is anyone else who might move in first. When all the sources fail and no other help shows cancer will rescue the struggler at the last minute.

His gesture will be grand and generous. But he waits and watches before interfering. No one could accuse him of being impulsive.

Before an act the crab carefully calculates his actions on experiences. He needs the strength of an accepted precedent or the assurance of financial security as a foundation. That is why most of his ventures are successful. With a fiery moon signor a fire sign as an ascendant, occasionally he may gamble and if he fails, the misery sets in. cancer tends to brood over mistakes.

Cancer loves his home. His home is where he plays, lives, loves, dreams and feels safe. He may travel the world because of his career but no cancer is happy without a place called home of his own.

Gemini the Twins


May 22nd through June 21st



Gemini is the sign of twins and there are two distinct sides of his changeable personality. It is hard to tell where reality ends and illusion begins. A Gemini can suddenly and fastly change his clothes, jobs, love, and residence as fast as he changes his mind.



Gemini is capable of getting the gist of a book in a brief look of the pages. That is why mercury people have the nasty habit of reading the last page first. You may seldom find a Gemini who has read a book from beginning to the end without leaving it halfway.



Stepping back and forth is the action they perform everywhere. You can find a Gemini in radio station, public relations firm, and publishing house. Telephone answering service, auto showrooms, and advertising agencies.



An occasional Gemini will speak slowly but most of them talk fast. All of them listen fast.



Physically, if there is no conflicting ascendant, Gemini is slender, agile and taller than average. Have small and sharp features. Most of the Gemini will have beautiful, crystal clear hazel, blue green or gray eyes. Gemini never rests their eyes on an object for more than a few seconds. They have pale skin which usually tans in summers. The hair can be light or dark or both like streaked. Nose will be long, straight and well formed. Men and women both have high foreheads.



Gemini loves the fun of disconcerting the slower minds with their lightning fast mental process.



Gemini is a person who will sometimes appear. His eyes will dart here and there in excited curiosity and then he will disappear like a magic act artist. Gemini can surprise you, especially when they are in love. They can do two things at once with less effort than it takes most of us to do one.



A typical Gemini does not like a fixed routine. Usually he isn't punctual not because he forget time but because some thing caught his attention on the way and sidetracked him.



Mercury people are restless. They want continuous excitement and change.



Gemini disguises their true motives. They behave in a way exactly opposite to their plan of action. They are excellent in sweet talk and that makes them expert politicians or work in the field of human relationships.



The sun sign Gemini rules writing. You may find them writing speeches, commercials, documentaries, plays, books. But very seldom he writes his own story. Gemini hates to answer correspondence and do not likes to write personal letters. The reason behind is that what he believes today, he may not believe tomorrow. They don't want to be committed in writing. Gemini authors use a pseudonym and even an average Gemini will adopt an alias, a different spelling or at least a nickname.



Almost every Gemini speaks, understands or reads more than one language. Gemini can turn a clever phrase as he has a facility of speech. He is capable of selling ice cubes in North Pole. You will easily give in after any of his upsetting change of minds. Sometimes the mercury tendencies to fool people can lead to dishonesty or criminal activity. His talent can tend him to live in a web of his own lies. Depending on the afflictions and planetary positions in the natal chart, the majority of Gemini is honest and even painfully honest to a fault. But they could not resist making stories and playing with words. Well! That's not lying, may be imagination.



Gemini people are salesman at heart. People born under this sun sign may bring many great improvements which benefit the whole mankind.



Gemini needs twice as much sleep as anyone else but since they are susceptible to insomnia they rarely get enough sleep. They need to take lots of rest, fresh unpolluted air and sunshine to keep their nerves relaxed. A lack of any of these can make them susceptible to accidents and infections in shoulders, arms, hands and fingers. Mercury people may have weak lungs and intestines. They may suffer from problems of feet, back, arthritis, rheumatism and migraine headache. Contradictory thing is that the Gemini can suffer an emotional breakdown more from boredom and loneliness than from over activity.




Gemini is the mental explorer. His imaginations know no boundaries. His restless, searching nature seeks an ideal not knowing what is it. He is never satisfied with just money, fame, love or career. Mercury calls Gemini higher and higher , on and on with an alluring promise of something better.



Gemini is multi talented. He possess a good sense of humor, tact and diplomacy. His element is air and knows less firmness of mind and patience. He shares his deepest emotions only with his other twin self.



Yellows, greens, blues, silver and gray are his colors. His cold mercury divides Gemini with twin desires, searching .. Running .






Gemini men: - try to squeeze in your hand. What happens? It slips immediately into many sparkling silver balls and you can never catch those.



Once you've learnt to accept Gemini's restless, unpredictable spirit, there's a good chance of having that heavenly comfort of knowing someone is there when you need 'that you are no longer walking alone. You'll never be alone. In fact you may have two people to walk with and that is him (twin self, you remember) he is born under the sign of twins and those are not identical twins. The dual nature of Gemini combines two completely different personalities.



Gemini is favorite of his hosts. He is very good conversationalist. He keeps the party moving with his witty remarks, social skills and excellent mannerism. Gemini likes exposure to all kinds of people.



At first when you meet a Gemini in a social affair you may find him surrounded with people laughing and enjoying his jokes. His intelligent opinions about current affairs. You'll be convinced he's the most exciting, interesting, intelligent man you've ever met. You are fascinated and started thinking about a new sir name. be sure you are capable of tackling an uncertain future with a man whose mind may change with the wind. If you can survive such experiences say "yes" when he proposes.



A man born under this sun sign will not remain tomorrow what he is today. Usually the changes are for the better and aim higher.



A Gemini who is in love with you may act very insultingly and rude. You may get puzzled whether he hates you. Gemini have an unconscious urge to conceal their true intention. They disguise their motives with dual actions to confuse you. Then with true Geminian inconsistency. They'll turn around and directly with blunt frankness propose you.



Loving a Gemini can be easy. He wants a mental companion who can match wits with him because he's not an egoist as most of the other signs may be. Never try to get too close even when you are married to him. He does not shares his emotions with anybody except his twin self. Keep things cool and light. Do not oppose his changeability, change with him. Let your brain show through your feminine image and you can be very- very happy.



Gemini keeps changing and so his friends according to his present interest. This does not imply that he is heartless, he fears loneliness even in his thoughts. There's seldom any deep attachment to old friends, memories, places or things.



Many Gemini marry more than once. Mostly if they are married before gaining their mental maturity. Not every Gemini has two wives but he'll have two of probably everything ' two cars, two apartments, two college degrees , two jobs two dreams, two pets , two razors, two hobbies, two ambitions, he likes to double up.



In financial matters he likes to accumulate money or knowledge. He has an idea to absorb it and give it back improved. He likes to create ever new, original ideas and serve others through versatility of his quick, brilliant mental process.



Gemini is strangely attractive to women. But if you have real faith in him he'll never be dishonest. Mercury people are able to sense your private thoughts. If you secretly suspicious about him he will certainly know it. You can not expect your Gemini husband to turn a cold shoulder to every female just because he is married. It's natural for a Gemini to converse regardless of the sex of a listener.



Gemini becomes distressed when he is misunderstood or mistrusted. He becomes restless at such times and seeks relief from his troubled emotions. When anyone tries to confine the Gemini's spirit he can become elusive and as unpredictable as wind.



Gemini and his children are usually very close but a bit lose. Lose in the sense of discipline. He may not teach them discipline as he himself does not like routines. He will criticize them one day and approve it the next day. Children will love to confide in him because he's seldom shocked and harsh in his judgments.



He can make some occasional promises to his children whom he can't back up and those may be broken. He will seldom punish his children physically but his impulsive, stinging, sarcastic speech, may cause deep bad impact on little hearts that can be remembered for a lifetime. Gemini an coolness may stop him from showing affection through kisses and hugs. Unless there is a conscious effort made.



Unless an affliction in natal chart indicates otherwise the Gemini husband is neither possessive nor jealous.



Love is not just physical relationship for this man. This air sign lacks the earthy passion of other sun signs.


He'll express his emotions with delicate, imaginative, romantic phrases.



The only real road to his heart is a total blending of mind and the spirit. Harsh, critical and emotional nagging will surely do harm to your relationship.




Gemini woman: - if you marry a Gemini woman you marry two women and sometimes three or four. Her age will be an important clue to what you can expect, because until she matures, romance is only a game to her. Her mind is always traveling and she lacks interest in earthy passion. She can be unpredictable. At first she'll like your nature, your voice, smile, eyes, everything. Then she'll reverse her ecstasy and criticize everything your shoes, your dressings, your haircut and what so ever so sharply that you may need an antiseptic for your wounds. But they aren't as heart less as they seem to be. They have twice as much to express as other women and love is the easiest way they can express them.



For a Gemini girl it is difficult to commit herself to one person at a time. She may be impressed with one man's mental abilities, but another side of her will be noticing his lack of interest in arts and music. She always faces an inner conflict between her twin self.



She'll usually manage to keep her confusion and pain of conflict to herself. She'll be lively, amuse you with her intelligence and capability to talk on any subject. She'll be very imaginative in her loving. She can change herself into an adoring housewife from a flattering girl friend. She can turn an intellectual who studies great philosophers and talk about politics or poetry brilliantly. Then can suddenly turn into a woman with tears and fears. She's not monotonous (two or more personalities at a time)

Our great Hollywood star Marilyn Monroe is the best example of mercury ruled woman.



Gemini woman has an interest in the out door games as scuba diving. Cycling, tennis.



'Out of sight out of mind 'is her nature. She accepts change and unless she's near you all the time she can find other men attractive at the same time. Fortunately for the men who are in love with a Gemini women, most of them settle down into a deeper understanding of their own nature before it's too late.

At times she may be moody to criticize you. She is one of a highly independent individualist. She may be workaholic. She will never ask you questions suspiciously and she expects the same from you.



She's not a house animal. She may be bored and depressed with the daily housekeeping routines. If you are an intellectual she may satisfy your cravings with the most soul satisfying conversations.

If you are a man who can match her speed, toss dreams with her and hold her hand tightly then go ahead.

















Gemini the Twins


May 22nd through June 21st



Gemini is the sign of twins and there are two distinct sides of his changeable personality. It is hard to tell where reality ends and illusion begins. A Gemini can suddenly and fastly change his clothes, jobs, love, and residence as fast as he changes his mind.



Gemini is capable of getting the gist of a book in a brief look of the pages. That is why mercury people have the nasty habit of reading the last page first. You may seldom find a Gemini who has read a book from beginning to the end without leaving it halfway.



Stepping back and forth is the action they perform everywhere. You can find a Gemini in radio station, public relations firm, and publishing house. Telephone answering service, auto showrooms, and advertising agencies.



An occasional Gemini will speak slowly but most of them talk fast. All of them listen fast.



Physically, if there is no conflicting ascendant, Gemini is slender, agile and taller than average. Have small and sharp features. Most of the Gemini will have beautiful, crystal clear hazel, blue green or gray eyes. Gemini never rests their eyes on an object for more than a few seconds. They have pale skin which usually tans in summers. The hair can be light or dark or both like streaked. Nose will be long, straight and well formed. Men and women both have high foreheads.



Gemini loves the fun of disconcerting the slower minds with their lightning fast mental process.



Gemini is a person who will sometimes appear. His eyes will dart here and there in excited curiosity and then he will disappear like a magic act artist. Gemini can surprise you, especially when they are in love. They can do two things at once with less effort than it takes most of us to do one.



A typical Gemini does not like a fixed routine. Usually he isn't punctual not because he forget time but because some thing caught his attention on the way and sidetracked him.



Mercury people are restless. They want continuous excitement and change.



Gemini disguises their true motives. They behave in a way exactly opposite to their plan of action. They are excellent in sweet talk and that makes them expert politicians or work in the field of human relationships.



The sun sign Gemini rules writing. You may find them writing speeches, commercials, documentaries, plays, books. But very seldom he writes his own story. Gemini hates to answer correspondence and do not likes to write personal letters. The reason behind is that what he believes today, he may not believe tomorrow. They don't want to be committed in writing. Gemini authors use a pseudonym and even an average Gemini will adopt an alias, a different spelling or at least a nickname.



Almost every Gemini speaks, understands or reads more than one language. Gemini can turn a clever phrase as he has a facility of speech. He is capable of selling ice cubes in North Pole. You will easily give in after any of his upsetting change of minds. Sometimes the mercury tendencies to fool people can lead to dishonesty or criminal activity. His talent can tend him to live in a web of his own lies. Depending on the afflictions and planetary positions in the natal chart, the majority of Gemini is honest and even painfully honest to a fault. But they could not resist making stories and playing with words. Well! That's not lying, may be imagination.



Gemini people are salesman at heart. People born under this sun sign may bring many great improvements which benefit the whole mankind.



Gemini needs twice as much sleep as anyone else but since they are susceptible to insomnia they rarely get enough sleep. They need to take lots of rest, fresh unpolluted air and sunshine to keep their nerves relaxed. A lack of any of these can make them susceptible to accidents and infections in shoulders, arms, hands and fingers. Mercury people may have weak lungs and intestines. They may suffer from problems of feet, back, arthritis, rheumatism and migraine headache. Contradictory thing is that the Gemini can suffer an emotional breakdown more from boredom and loneliness than from over activity.




Gemini is the mental explorer. His imaginations know no boundaries. His restless, searching nature seeks an ideal not knowing what is it. He is never satisfied with just money, fame, love or career. Mercury calls Gemini higher and higher , on and on with an alluring promise of something better.



Gemini is multi talented. He possess a good sense of humor, tact and diplomacy. His element is air and knows less firmness of mind and patience. He shares his deepest emotions only with his other twin self.



Yellows, greens, blues, silver and gray are his colors. His cold mercury divides Gemini with twin desires, searching .. Running .






Gemini men: - try to squeeze in your hand. What happens? It slips immediately into many sparkling silver balls and you can never catch those.



Once you've learnt to accept Gemini's restless, unpredictable spirit, there's a good chance of having that heavenly comfort of knowing someone is there when you need 'that you are no longer walking alone. You'll never be alone. In fact you may have two people to walk with and that is him (twin self, you remember) he is born under the sign of twins and those are not identical twins. The dual nature of Gemini combines two completely different personalities.



Gemini is favorite of his hosts. He is very good conversationalist. He keeps the party moving with his witty remarks, social skills and excellent mannerism. Gemini likes exposure to all kinds of people.



At first when you meet a Gemini in a social affair you may find him surrounded with people laughing and enjoying his jokes. His intelligent opinions about current affairs. You'll be convinced he's the most exciting, interesting, intelligent man you've ever met. You are fascinated and started thinking about a new sir name. be sure you are capable of tackling an uncertain future with a man whose mind may change with the wind. If you can survive such experiences say "yes" when he proposes.



A man born under this sun sign will not remain tomorrow what he is today. Usually the changes are for the better and aim higher.



A Gemini who is in love with you may act very insultingly and rude. You may get puzzled whether he hates you. Gemini have an unconscious urge to conceal their true intention. They disguise their motives with dual actions to confuse you. Then with true Geminian inconsistency. They'll turn around and directly with blunt frankness propose you.



Loving a Gemini can be easy. He wants a mental companion who can match wits with him because he's not an egoist as most of the other signs may be. Never try to get too close even when you are married to him. He does not shares his emotions with anybody except his twin self. Keep things cool and light. Do not oppose his changeability, change with him. Let your brain show through your feminine image and you can be very- very happy.



Gemini keeps changing and so his friends according to his present interest. This does not imply that he is heartless, he fears loneliness even in his thoughts. There's seldom any deep attachment to old friends, memories, places or things.



Many Gemini marry more than once. Mostly if they are married before gaining their mental maturity. Not every Gemini has two wives but he'll have two of probably everything ' two cars, two apartments, two college degrees , two jobs two dreams, two pets , two razors, two hobbies, two ambitions, he likes to double up.



In financial matters he likes to accumulate money or knowledge. He has an idea to absorb it and give it back improved. He likes to create ever new, original ideas and serve others through versatility of his quick, brilliant mental process.



Gemini is strangely attractive to women. But if you have real faith in him he'll never be dishonest. Mercury people are able to sense your private thoughts. If you secretly suspicious about him he will certainly know it. You can not expect your Gemini husband to turn a cold shoulder to every female just because he is married.

Gemini becomes distressed when he is misunderstood or mistrusted. He becomes restless at such times and seeks relief from his troubled emotions. When anyone tries to confine the Gemini's spirit he can become elusive and as unpredictable as wind.

He will criticize them one day and approve it the next day. Children will love to confide in him because he's seldom shocked and harsh in his judgments.

Taurus the Bull


Aprill21st to May 21st




"Nothing ever changes it and nothing can move it"


A typical Taurean prefers to move deliberately and speak sparingly. He is solid and steady and nothing disturbs his tranquility. You can try anything. Shout at him. Throw water, light a fire , beat him , once his mind is set ,he folds his arms calmly and digs his heels fixed. Now that's it.


He has a board hung around 'do not disturb' he wants to be left alone. You can try his patience for many days, months or years, he'll show you a perfect control. He may ignore all the things you do to disturb him. But someday, unexpectedly you may see a bull snorting and coming to you at a great speed. Get out of the way as fast as you can run for your life. The Taurean temper is unlikely to be seen but when the bull gets mad he can demolish everything in his path up to and including Scorpios. Some Taureans have so much of control that they only charge once or twice in the whole lifetime. Taurus doesn't get just a little mad or annoyed.



Physically some May people may resemble a bull. The look in a female Taurus will be serene and clear yet steady. She will move gracefully, indolently but with a suggestion of strength within. In males the neck will be thick or muscular. The shoulders, chest or back or all three will be broad and strong. The entire body will be in equilibrium and well proportioned. The ears are usually small and close to head. When they eat, they chew slowly and have a good digestion. Not all but many Taurean have curly or wavy hair. . Hair, skin and eyes are usually dark. Taurus is strongly attracted to the opposite sex. But he prefers to attract people to him.



Taurean makes good hosts. The sparkling popularity does not appeal a Taurean.



Taurean seldom gets worried or makes fuss of something. Taureans decisions are made slowly and carefully. His actions are predictable. His character is strong. He is always a good listener. Taurus is an earth sign so there is a love of land in one way or the other. If a Taurus does not own a house, some day he will. Occasionally he will get out of the noisy clatter of the city to countryside. This is why Taurus is found in real estate business. There's always a connection of land.



This earth sign needs country air and exercise to keep his strong constitution superbly healthy. If anyhow he falls ill, his recovery may be slow because of his strong refusal to doctor' advise. The sensitive areas for accident and infections are the throat, neck, legs, ankles, reproductive organs, back and spinal areas. Very prone to colds which may lead to sore throats. His love for food and drink may make him overweight leading to the problems of heart, weak ankles, and varicose veins.



Taurus is stubborn. He's sensible firm and patient. It is next to impossible to change his opinions. Many Taurean bear emotional and physical burden in silence for years. The more the trouble comes the more strength he gets to fight it back. His loyalty and sense of responsibility for family and friends is often beyond understanding. Lots of Taurus deserves gold medals for the courage under blows of fate that would have long ago broken the backs of other sun signs. Bulls have a nice appetite and good digestions.



Taurus humor is warm and earthy. These people are seldom cruel or live on grudges. It's a strange fact that cruel Taureans often have many planets in Aries at the time of birth. The two signs do not seem to mix well in the same horoscope. Hitler is a good example.



Taurus likes to build a stable business with a solid foundation. He likes to accumulate cash along with power. He knows that the power is with the dollars. Sooner or later money will come to Taurus and will stay. The Taureans are generous for friends in trouble.



Taurus is impressed by bigness. The larger the building is more fascinated he is. Taurus will face huge animals with magnificent courage but he is afraid of mouse.



Every Taurean has a taste for art and music. Many Taureans have beautiful voices and they may sing professionally. Music, drawing and painting are often either hobbies or careers.



Shades of blue, pink, green and browns soothe him. But not red.



Taurus prizes his cash, possessions and family. He pays dearly for them but is a great enemy of wastage and extravagance.



Good fortune showers success on him.


His metal is copper which is a good conductor of electricity. Bulls fixed nature needs no torches to light his way. Remember ' do not disturb a bull.



Taurus man:- a typical Taurus man is a quiet and practical soul. He is sensible and down to earth. He is slow to move to action, deliberate and careful. He may take a long time deciding if he wants you for his woman. But once he has made up his mind, he sets his mind on winning you. Taurus can be a caring gentle lover. He will love your perfume, skin and soft hair. He may not tell you this in language but in some way he will convey the message.



Taurus men love softness. He will like you to see dressed in luxurious furs and rich colors. He will have a favorite song that reminds him of you. He may set it as his ring tone or a caller tone. He will not promise you to take floating to a dreamland but probably he may walk in one day with the blueprints of the house he has planned for you. With a Taurean you can always feel safe and secure for your future. If you are a female who appreciates real solid values you will not have time to weep for your foolish misty dreams. You'll love his peaceful, calm and stable nature. You will find your soul satisfied with his sentimental gestures and pleasant earthy wooing.



A Taurus man plans for tomorrow carefully. The momentary pleasures do not distract him preparing for the harder days.


Taurus men do not like a masculine female dictating his actions or shoving her forceful opinions on him. Privately, he respects a female with intelligence (though he places a higher premium on plain common sense).let him be the bright one at least in public. Never try to interrupt him when he is speaking his wisdom or you will certainly have a lesson. A Taurus will seldom leave his woman alone and unprotected. No matter how angry she's made him. He will take her along. Forcefully if needed. So drop the idea of staying back to get the sympathy from others. When he leaves, you leave and apologize before you get home. A Taurus husband is generous to faults. Running home to mamma is a total no 'no to Taurean. After one such experience of a bull's fury your parents will tell you to solve your own problems.



Taurus is extremely patient but he will not play the role of a fool. No one can be kinder, more gentle and truly tolerant than a Taurus man when his masculinity is secure. He'll do anything in the world for the woman he loves except allow her to show her extra smartness.



In romance, Bull takes time to catch fire. But once he makes his mind for a particular female, he can't be sidetracked. He may even forget the warnings of incompatibility when he's been pierced by the arrow of Cupid. The more you tell him of the forthcoming dangers, the more obstinate he gets. Consequently, Taurean frequently gets tangled up with fire and air signs. When he can go better with earth and water signs. Sometimes opposites can attract and stay attracted. Taurus takes a long time to get over the pain of divorce before he's ready to settle down with a new wife.



The financial picture of a Taurus man is usually excellent. Both real estate and cash are easy matter for bulls. He loves luxury but with values.



Taurus will love country, football, fishing, camping, gardening, flowers or long walks. He likes books on heroes of old days or the biographies of empire builders.



He likes good old fashioned home cooking with lots of tomatoes and spicy gravy. He doesn't expect you to be kitchen slave. He'll frequently take you to dine out.



As a parent he will think a son is important to carry on family name but he'll love the little girls with special tenderness. As himself, he sets high standards for his children and expects them to respect property and possessions. With time and devotion he'll also surprise them with expensive gifts. He never gets worried if his children learn slowly. He believes in gradual growth towards maturity. Life with a Taurean father will be warm and loving except for those occasional anger scenes.



Taurus is hard working and wants lots of rest. He works at his own pace ' deliberately. He does not want to be pushed or rushed. He will enjoy company of old friends, people with seriousness towards life. He likes to entertain them at home in his castle.



Remember to make him feel comfortable and cozy at home. No loud noises, chaos and scattered things around please. He works hard for you and your family and he deserves rest and respect. Taurus gives a faithful heart, emotional and financial security. What if he is stubborn but that is his patience. And this you may never find in other sun signs. Taurus loves things that feel soft to touch. Give him that softness in everything your behavior, his comfort, your voice and affection and he'll keep you contented.



Taurus woman:- Taurean female is the combination of all the sterling qualities every male looks for and seldom finds. She seeks a real man, that's because she is a real woman. She's proud of her being a woman and has a mind of her own that is strong. She may have a violent temper that can frighten any man to hide himself.



A typical Taurean woman has a excellent self control in all the areas at most of the times. With an Aries or Leo ascendant or Moon she may show a occasional cruelty or experience some emotional storms. With heavy Pisces or Gemini influences in her natal chart she may be more restless and wavering. Her placid exterior conceals a sensual nature.



She has a tendency to accept people as they are. Her friends are few but the real people. When dislikes one she simply avoids him. If she takes you as a friend she will be loyal in all your ups and downs. In return she'll expect you the same unquestioning and blind faith in her. If you fail to do so she may leave you in silence with out a word of complaint. But still you can try her in your hard times and usually she will be there for you.



She admires beauty and of girls also. You can join openheartedly praising a pretty girl. She will never feel jealous. It takes more than a casual flirtation or a wink to girl to arouse her Taurean rage. You are allowed but be in limits.



Multiple university degrees do not thrill a Taurean girl that does not means that she isn't smart or clever. She can match brains with the brightest men and women. She's a solid and practical thinker and common sense and ability to understand the basic fundamentals of any subject are natural to her. She is firm and keeps her balance.



She has to derive some sensual pleasure from the thing she does. She will like natural flowers .the smell of wet mud in rain, burning wax candles, the smoke of smoldering autumn leaves lingering perfumes. Unpleasant odors act drastically on her. So be careful before kissing her.



Rich Colors soothe her. Shades of blue, rose and pink are her favorite.



Her food must taste just right. A Taurus woman can cook her way right into your heart and her kitchen is a real man trap.



She loves harmony. Feels ecstatic when close to nature. Harmonious sound and visual effects can send her senses soaring. The taurean female is tomboy at heart. She loves all the adventures. She has a love for land. She likes warm bath.



Taurus woman love softness. She wars the fabric that is soft and luxurious. Usually she will dress with simplicity and taste. She dresses mostly for comfort.



Taurean girl can be a tower of strength. She never demands anything but your loyalty. Her nature is easy, pleasant, down to earth and straight forward.



She does not want to be pushed or rushed. She hates to de dictated. If you do this especially in public her temper may rage ' slow- deliberate ' steady ' and if you keep arousing it she may be violent.



As a mother she can do anything for her children. She cuddles the small infant but when the youngsters grow older she may be demanding and strict. She won't stand for disobedience or laziness. The Taurus mother becomes very angry when the discipline is broken.



The love of harmony keeps her not liking any untidiness in the surroundings. Except these faults she is mostly generous with her children. As the years pass her children will find a passionate, intimate friend in her. She'll always defend her children from any type of hurts and inherit the strength she possess to meet any emergency in life.



In case of a financial crisis she never complains. She can take a job quietly to help her husband. She is hardworking but wants frequent rest. She's never lazy. She dislikes weakness in any form. She can help her husband in his business or in his studies.



Her endurance to pain and emotional stress can surpass Scorpio females. A Taurus woman never lets sentiments interfere with practicality.



If you marry a Taurean female you'll have to provide her quality food and furnishings. She will never demand. She may wait and contribute for the luxuries she wants.



A good impression always matters to her. She will encourage her husband to keep contacts with influential people.



Her optimism and faith can work miracles. She is a hope for those who are hope less. She may be the victory for those who are defeated. She is the soul of hospitality.

These woman are nothing but loyal.


As a wife they can do everything nicely whatever is needed. She will manage the entire house hold chorus but may not like it. Her fire is like that of glittering diamond and not that of a warm comforting glow of a fire place. There is always a brittle side of her nature.
