Smile Re: What's Your Zodiac Sign ???

It's very true, Cam. Cancerians can definitely be moody. Here's your sun sign information...





June 22nd ~ July 22nd

Planet ~ The Moon

Sign ~ The Crab

Element ~ Water



Key Characteristics: Sensitive, Moody, Quite Ambitious, Very Persistent And Determined.


Temperment:


Cancerians are among the lucky ones in life. They seem to be bestowed with health and stamina, personal beauty, charisma and original talents. This may be due to the influence in Cancer of the fixed star Alhena. Those professions which attract cancerians are those which attract individuals who like to entertain, amuse, or in some creative way give pleasure to others. They are also renowned as extraordinarily hardworking people, naturally competitive, who deliver the goods. Though many are blessed with creative genius, the old saying that genius is one part inspiration and nine parts perspiration would strike a chord with most Cancerians. They find that they excel as tour guides, in public relations, sales, the travel and hospitality industries. Usually skilled public speakers, ambitious, responsible, methodical, and sticklers for detail, Cancerians may reach the highest levels of government or community service. They often gravitate towards philanthropic work and have a strong sense of social justice.

Many Cancerians are persistent that they prefer to see something through to the end rather than abandon it as a lost cause. "Never say die" could well be the philosophy of this sign. They can often withstand trials and tribulations which would destroy others. Given the fortuitous nature of the sign, their setbacks often metamorphose into lucky breaks anyway!

Emotionally, they share their namesake's thick, protective shell. Where others may lean on friends, partner or family under duress, those born under the sign of the Crab are ultimately loners. This fortitude is also influence by the fixed star Dirah, which bestows protection during hardship an adversity on those born under Cancer, especially those with birthdates between June 22 and June 25th.

The fixed star Pollux also throws its influence on Cancer. Pollux is the star of boxers and others who fight with their hands as weapons. Although they may first try to avoid a confrontation, Cancerians tend to be strong, aggressive fighters, willing to raise those 'claws' and fight for survival.
Born under the sign of the Crab, hard outside and soft inside, Cancerians understand that looks can be deceiving and their intuitioin serves them well. They are ethical people, so Cancerian detectives with their instincts for subterfuge, sharp eye for detail, and powers of deduction are the ones to have the hardest cases. Those born towards the middle of the sign, around June 29th to June 30th, often have the gift of dreaming prophetically and intuitive understanding. Many Cancerians are found among those celebrated as psychics and hynotherapists.

Cancerians can be baffling to others. One minute they're full of confidence and enthusiasm; the next they've stopped in their tracks, on full alert, observing, assessing, reviewing their entire being emitting an invisible but unmistakable "Do Not Disturb" signal.

Sensitive Cancerians often are very fond of animals and may have quite a menagerie of pets. Farming sheep, cattle, pigs or poultry are some rural pursuits that may appeal to people born under this sign. They may also be interested in or proficient at training animals such as dogs, horses or even lions!

On the downside, Cancerians can be so sensitive that's it's difficult to speak to them without giving offense. Because they are such softies inside, despite their tough exterior and antennae for detecting enemies, many an empathetic or sympathetic Cancerian has been taken advantage of.
Responsible, commercially canny Cancerians are contradictory creatures in yet another way; they often handle money strangely. In a vivid and imaginative mood, they'll spend too freely, but overnight may become downright miserly. These swings can be unnerving for business or life partners pushed to see the Cancerian method in such apparent madness.



Love and Friendship:


Those born under Cancer should seek artistic and original-thinking partners, fond of company and travelling, for they do need stimulating companions although they are often very private people who need partners who also value a secure home life as much as Cancer does. Someone with a well-honed sense of the ridiculous, of the comic, will cope best and enjoy the wonderfully contradictory elements of their Cancerian partner's personality and behavior.

Cancerians will only form partnerships after careful consideration, usually alone and without discussion. The oft-noted Cancerian moodiness will come into play, with Cancerians appearing quite withdrawn and taciturn as they debate any delemma entirely within. Once they have made a decision to commit, they are usually loyal, even-tempered partners, personally and professionally. Happy and fulfilled Cancerians love to give enjoyment to their partners, and will often make a special fuss on birthdays and other anniversaries.

Cancerians value their individuality and if this is threatened, quickly retreat from relationships. At some point in their lives, Cancerians are likely to value independence and personal freedom above monetary gain or other people's opinions of them.



Herbs and Health:


Cancerians can be such introspective worriers that they develop stomach or liver disorders. Eyes, so important to observant Cancerians, must also be given special attention. Cancerians shoud look to herbs ruled by the moon to suit the water element in their nature. Healing herbs for Cancerians are lettuce, agrimony, balm, chamomile, and cucumber.

Cancerians who lie awake worrying at night would do well to have a bedtime cup of lettuce tea, an effective home remedy for sleeplessness.

Chamomile and cucumber will help clear blemishes and one of the oldest known remedies for easing tension around the eyes is to rest with sliced cucumber over each closed eyelid. Cancerians whose eyes are sore with strain will find it works like a dream.




Please feel free to give me the month and day of a loved one or even a friend you're interested in knowing about as well. It doesn't necessarily have to be you.


More info soon...

So glad you enjoyed it, Cam!


I think you mentioned the Dragon in another thread. I don't think I've done that one yet and it would be a cool one to describe for sure.

Hiya Re: What's Your Zodiac Sign ???

Ok Cam's sister and other Dragons, this is for you...


DRAGON





The Chinese Dragon is a symbol of virue and strength, not the gruesome monster of medieval European imagination. Trustworthy, courageous and fierce, Dragons guarded the treasure of the Chinese gods. Throughout Chinese history, the emperors were closely associated with the Dragon, theirs being the Dragon Throne. The Dragon is a mighty protector. It looks after those born to its house and is thought to roam beneath the surface of the earth, bringing woe to those who injure of offend its own.

Indeed Dragons rank with the other major symbols of good fortune: water and jade. If you were born in the year of the dragon then you will know health and happiness.

When considering their bodily health, those born in the year of the dragon should be particularily attentive to their ears. The Dragon is traditionally thought to be subject to hearing difficulties and therefore vulnerable to enemies.

The Dragon is also thought to confer the gifts of natural vigor and sexual potency on those born under its dominion. Those born in a year of the dragon are smouldering, passionate and extremely attractive to others.
One flaw of many born in the Dragon's mansion is impulsiveness. They can also be quick tempered and stubborn. Those born in the year of the Dragon will never let anyone push them around!

They are usually very lucky in terms of material wealth. Just as well, because those born children of the Dragon are much inclined to favor the luxurious and the expensive things in life.

Dragon extravagance is legendary: when feasting on oysters nourished by the friendly element of water, they would spit out the pearls for the use of those born to their house. Those born under the influence of the Dragon often have some special connection with water in their lives.

While Dragons frequently help others, rarely will they ask for help. Others are attracted to Dragons, especially their colorful personalities, but deep down, Dragons prefer to be alone. Perhaps that is because they’re most successful when working alone. Their preference to be alone can come across as arrogance or conceitedness, but these qualities aren’t applicable. Dragons have tempers that can flare fast!

Considering their hard-working nature, Dragons are healthy overall. They do get stressed and suffer from periodic tension/headaches, likely because they take so many risks. Dragons could benefit from incorporating mild activity into their lives. Yoga or walking would be good as these activities can work both their minds and their bodies.

Dragons prefer leading to being led. Jobs that allow them to express their creativity are good choices. Some good careers include: inventor, manager, computer analyst, lawyer, engineer, architect, broker, and sales person.
Dragons will give into love, but won’t give up their independence. Because they have quick, sometimes vengeful tempers, their partners need to be tough-skinned. Dragons enjoy others who are intriguing, and when they find the right partners, they’ll usually commit to that person for life.

They should look for friends, lovers, business and personal life partners among those born in the years of the Tiger, Rooster, or Rat. With these people in their lives, success will come more quickly and happiness will be experienced more intensely by those born in the year of the Dragon.




I'm gonna add stuff over time about all of the signs again. I'm hardly finished with you guys yet! I have many interesting and even comical things to share...like how to spot certain signs in certain situations and what they'd be doing, say for instance at a party.


Anyone else daring enough to give their month and day of birth for a more personalized horoscope?


Yes Yug, Sagittarius is a wonderful sign and I'm glad you mentioned it. I'll do it next...

Talking Re: What's Your Zodiac Sign ???




November 22nd ~ December 21st
Planet ~ Jupiter
Sign - The Archer
Element ~ Fire



Key Characteristics: Idealistic, Free-Thinking Individuals, Often Very Lucky, Particularly In Terms Of Material Wealth.


...glorious in his Cretian Bow,
Centaur follows with an aiming Eye,
His Bow full drawn and ready to fly. ~ Creech's Manilius.



Temperament:


Sagittarians are invariably lucky: they're the success stories of the stock market, the ones who've made money by dealing in real estate. They have a definite knack for being in the right place at the right time. Lady luck is their frequent companion throughout life. Sagittarians certainly don't rely on it. Rather they attract more good fortune through their undeniable capacity for hard work. Moreover, Sagittarians possess a fine instinct for opportunity, a talent they appreciate and rely on increasingly as they progress through life and experience teaches them the enormous value of this talent.

Those born under the sign of Sagittarius are generally personable and likeable people. They enjoy significant personal power both socially and professionally simply being themselves. In particular, those born on or around December 6th, are downright charming: bright, cheerful, chatty and enthusiastic about everything life has to offer. All Sagittarians are typically loyal, fearless, farsighted and often blessed with remarkably fine judgement (although they may be a little hot-headed or impulsive at times). These characterisitics all hark back to their namesake, the archer.

And like the mythical Archer, they are also strong individuals in their own right. They rarely lean upon others and usually think carefully before making a decision embarking on any significant activity. (They can deliberate for years before committing themselves to a personal life partner!).

But they are very action-oriented rather than passive people. Sagittarians are often those who innitiate or generate response in others. As adults, they often demonstrate considerate talent as speakers, perhaps teachers, lecturers, or trainers. They tend to gravitate towards occupations that allow for plenty of dynamism and movement, both physically and intellectually. Sales, travel, and the armed services are all likely to appeal to them.

Sagittarians are honest to a fault, so if you don't want to hear the truth, don't ask a Sagittarian. They don't know how to lie and have experienced sticking their foot in their mouths on numerous occasions.

Of all the signs, they tend to have the greatest regard for human rights and the goodness inherent in humanity. This may lead them to work to improve peace and understanding at either a community or world level. Theirs is a world view, one which welcomes anything different, particularly foreign, and they are natural travellers.



Love and Friendship:


It may seem something of a contradiction then that the Sagittarian is the person most able and most likely to live alone. As a rule they have extremely high personal, moral and ethical standards, demanding the same high standards of others as they do of themselves. This profoundly important aspect of their nature leads them to be unsparing in their judgement of others and very sparing of forgiveness. Sagittarians are not likely to forgive and less likely to forget once they find someone guilty of transgressing the bounds of decent, civilized behavior in their dealing with the Sagittarian or with others, partcularly the Sagitttarian's family or friends. Not that Sagittarians are inclined to enjoy a quarrel or to smoulder as a Scorpio might. It's just that, once distrust and disappointment in the ethics of others has entered the Sagittarian mind, it tends to push aside and other bonds be those familial, social of professional. In the case of the Sagittarian born on or near December 1st, a time in the Zodiacal calendar which is directly affected by the fixed an fiery star Antares, any such falling out may be marked by drastic action on their part. An angry impulse on the part of a fired-up Sagittarian with a December 1st birthdate might result in an argument culminating with communications being permanently severed. With most Sagittarians, however, such a break would be equally irrevocable but civil to a degree well below freezing point.

These high standards of theirs are another reason why Sagittarians tend to progress rapidly up the corporate ladder, or through the ranks of the army or navy. Their honorable character and clear convictions as to what is and is not acceptable behavior attract unswerving loyalty from others.

In addition to sharing the Sagittarian's high ethical standards, their partner should be affable and easygoing, someone who won't want to share the Sagittarian's limelight, who won't be in any way a competitor for the admiration which the admirable and even quite dazzlingly attractive Sagittarian is used to receiving from the rest of the world. It will help if their partners are good communicators, intelligent and articulate people who will enjoy discussing the matters of worldly import and particular interest to the Sagittarian. Many Sagittarians will be more than delighted if their partner is simply a keen listener.




Herbs and Health:


The active Sagittarian may well be one of those people who later in life suffers from rheumatism, particulary in the hips and thighs, the point of balance for the legendary Archer and the source of muscular energy which releases the arrow from the bow with such force.

Nicolas Culpeper, the famous herbalist and astrologer of old, claimed that sage, being ruled by Jupiter, was an appropriate herb for Sagittarians. Cuts of meat to be roasted may be rubbed with sage leaves and sage tea is claimed to successfully darken greying hair.

In old herbal lore the leaves of chervil were said to be helpful to Sagittarians suffering from rheumatism and an infusion of chervil was recommended for people suffering from fever. By increasing preparation, the infusion was said to help the body temperature..a boon for those with hot tempers from this fiery sign!




Sure thing Cam...I'll do Sheep & Rat next...

SHEEP (GOAT)





Within Chinese culture, the sheep is the symbol of modest devotion to family, always depicted kneeling respectfully to either give or receive nourishment. So if you are born within the house if the Sheep then you will be highly valued by your family for your quiet commitment to them all.

Sheep-people are regarded as amongst the luckiest of all. It is thought that those born within the protection of the Sheep will never experience hunger. Such people were those whom the Chinese assigned to take charge of farming during times of drought and famine, for they were thought to have a lucky effect on the cultivation of the soil. And those born in a year of the Sheep are usually lucky with money.

Not so with romantic love. Perhaps this is because those born under this sign are notoriously self-effacing. Then, too, those born with the Sheep as their life symbol can be far too inclined to take things slowly. If you're a Sheep, you'll not be one of those who marry in haste and repent at leisure.

Sheep-people are the good samaritans of the Chinese zodiac. They are gentle mannered and on the shy side. Being very sincere they are easily taken by a sob story. Sheep people are compassionate, understanding of others' faults, and quick to forgive.

Sheep-people like to set their own hours and will not tolerate too much discipline. They are also very offended if they are criticized. They cannot work well under pressure and must be allowed to do things at their own speed. Sheep need somebody to discipline them, though, in order to utilize their talents. They usually find someone to look after and care for them.

Good fortune smiles upon Sheep-people. They benefit from wills and inheritances. Even in the roughest of times, the Sheep always acquire the basic needs. Sheep get their own way without force or violence. They have that passive endurance that drives you mad. Eventually they wear you down with their pleas. You just can't break them!

Sheep never come right out and discuss what's bothering them. You pry it out of them bit by bit. When all else fails, yell at them, and bang things around. They should be impressed and might unfold all their secret woes; then, you can clear the air.

The Sheep are family people. They never forget anyone's birthday, and you had better not forget theirs! Sheep worry, too. They want others to cheer them up and tell them everything will be okay.

The prospect of having anything new or strange tends to frighten you: new faces, new places, the never-endng changes in our world. And you often approach anything different with trepidation, fearing the worst.

In fact, your big weakness may well be pessimism. Too often those born under the influence of the Sheep are inclined to look on the black side, worry about things which may never happen, see difficulties which simply do not exist.

If you're born with the Sheep as your personal emblem, then you need a partner who is optimistic and brave...who can cope with you when you get in one of your fearful 'down' moods! You are most likely to find one of those paragons in those born when Jupiter is in the mansion of the Pig, the Horse, or the Rabbit.



Rat next...

Cool, Joan!


I did the Pig (Boar) a little further back, but don't get the wrong impression because Pig-people are truly WONDERFUL folks.


I'll get the Rat done shortly. You're welcome, Cam!

Wink Re: What's Your Zodiac Sign ???




According to Chinese mythology, the Rat is blessed with long life and supernatural powers. People who are born in the year of the Rat are often described by the Chinese as having 'an old soul' and for many centuries Rat people were thought to be most likely to bear messages from the transmigrated souls of relatives and friends.

They are thus considered to be among the lucky ones of this world: clever and fortunate throughout their long and happy lives. They attract good luck as honeypots attract bees. Moreover, your luck spills over into your own life into that of others who quickly perceive that it's great having you around. For many centuries in China, those born in a year of the Rat were treated with enormous respect and showered with gifts. But be careful: Your popularity could be your undoing. Whatever you do, do not let other people set the agenda so that you find yourself organizing or restricting your own life to suit theirs.

Those wearing the emblem of the Rat must be true to its incorruptible and independent spirit and travel their own way in life. When necessary to avoid the demands of others, you could take advantage of the cunning, crafty, and sometimes secretive elements of your nature. But you must watch that those traits do not become flaws in your ambitious, hardworking character.

Also, you should watch your temper. Born under the influence of the Rat, you can turn suddenly angry, perhaps quite vicious. This may happen when easygoing, companionable you lets yourself get caught up with other people's lives at the expense of your own work or play. Just like a Chinese firecracker you explode in all directions, shooting off sparks of frustration and thwarted independence. No wonder your family and friends describe you as being 'a bit ratty' at times!

Rats are both charming and aggressive. They appear calm and well balanced on the surface, but underneath, they are restless and a little nervous. Rats are compatible, hard working, and they know how to hang on to a penny. They are never without admirers. They are very appealing. They have a bright and happy personality, and this keeps them busy socially. They love parties and other large gatherings. They like belonging to exclusive clubs and will often have a close circle of fellow conspirators. They like involvement and are very outgoing. Rats cherish friends and loved ones. For this reason, they often get entangled with others' problems and lives.

Rats are full of good advice but they will never share their troubles with others. They are honest individuals and they enjoy living for the moment. They’re also capable of surviving any situation.

Rats are very charming. They enjoy social activities and because they’re out a lot, they’re always meeting new people. They aren’t good at breaking off relationships however, and this presents problems going forward with new relationships. Anyone hoping to partner with a Rat must be able to keep up with the Rat’s active nature.

Rats love money and are quite shrewd where a buck is concerned. It is a hard task to separate Rats from their money. However, Rats can be very generous when their loved ones are concerned. Relatives are always welcome. Rats are definitely clannish and clever. With all these people around, Rats always find tasks for them to earn their keep. People will be put to work quickly in the Rat's house. Rats know how to keep a secret, if it's their own, but they are adept at finding out what others try to keep to themselves, and Rats wouldn't be above using the information if it were to their benefit.

For a harmonious life with considerate partners, choose those born in years of the Monkey, Buffalo, or Dragon and do your polite best to avoid those born in the year of the Goat or Horse.

Hiya Re: What's Your Zodiac Sign ???

I'm not surprised Cam, as most of it is very accurate information and almost everyone relates to it.


I've had my personal birthchart done, which depicts the exact position of each of the planets at the precise time and day of your birth, determining your life and what is most probable to happen in it. If you ever come across a good Astrologer, don't hesitate to pay to have it done. Even very specific things that were years to come into effect, were forseen in my birthchart reading...things I didn't even believe were true at the time or really thought would happen...yet they did.


Newspaper astrology is very general and non-specific, but a personal birthchart reading will leave your jaw on the ground. It tells of many aspects of your personality, what your mother and father are like, how well you'll do financially in life, even if you'll live to be old! The detail is startling. I still have the 25 page booklet that was typed out for me, when I had my chart done years ago. It's important to get someone well studied in the science though, not just any joe blow.


So what sign shall I do next?

Do you have to go to a fortune teller to get your birthchart read? I read the info about the sheep to my brother and he got mad because some of what it said really did apply to him lol

Wink Re: What's Your Zodiac Sign ???

No, fortune tellers are different than astrologers...and a number of them are phonies!


I certainly didn't mean to upset anyone but yes sometimes it can be hard to admit our faults and shortcomings.

Thumbs up Re: What's Your Zodiac Sign ???

Oh well if you can find a good one, it would be well worth your while, Cameron. I was fortunate to have my birth chart done for free because I dated a professional astrologer who made his living at it and charged $200 for each one!!!

It was worth it though and people paid it too. He was an astrological genius and could tell you things with such accuracy it would leave you spellbound! To this day, I still read the booklet he made for me about my life...and it's amazing. Details and personal things that hadn't even happened yet, but then they did! Kind of scary really.


Ok, not sure what sign to do next. Any more suggestions?
