Scorpio - The Scorpion

Scorpio - The Emperor of All Zodiac Signs
By Frank Veda

Those born between October 23 and November 21 are assigned the zodiac sign of Scorpio. This sign is often credited as the most powerful sign of zodiac signs and the Scorpios have the fate to live king size lives according to their wishes. They have dramatic and intense personalities as well as personal relationships. Passion, Power and Prosperity always go hand in hand with Scorpios. Hard work and perseverance is a trait most prized in the Scorpio sign.

General Traits of Scorpios

Scorpios tend to have acute personalities having lots of hidden depths of astuteness and compassionateness which may often trouble people. They are deeply emotional and they accept the pain and feelings that other signs cannot handle. They make exceptional partners and can handle any situation of emotion and personal bonding.

Their magnetism power is very much prominent. Scorpios draw attention towards them easily and can attract others with their charm and personality without difficulty. They are very bold and are not afraid to go into the dark. That is why you will find lots of surgeons and doctors being Scorpios. They always use their skills in a constructive way. The incredible personal magnetism and loyalty towards friends and partners make them a lovable person. They are liked by many but also hated by many.

Scorpio Sign

The darker side of Scorpios are mostly secretive and hidden. They are not open with their many traits and they usually love gaining powers. They are power hungry people and love the luxuries of life. They wish to get them at any cost and for that they are ready to work hard and do tremendous physical work too. Being a Scorpio you very well know you cannot forget some humiliation done to you. They keep grudges and leave no opportunity to take revenge at the right time.

Friendship and Compatibility

Because they are powerful and successful, they have a successful friendship history. They are at times too violent and despotic which may lead to a sore relationship in friendship. The natural jealous nature and overbearing tend to create foes too. Scorpios are very serious when they are into a relationship. They easily pamper partners, argue with them and make up, ease them and truly bond with their partner emotionally. Scorpio is compatible with zodiac signs like Cancer, Virgo, Capricorn, and Pisces.

Career and Health

Intense and passionate Scorpios know what they need in life because they are focused and hard working. They mostly take higher positions in their career field and have the tendency to become renowned figure. In simple words, if you are a Scorpio, you will get what you want because you put everything into it.
Health wise, Scorpios need to pay little attention. They may suffer from ill health due to emotional difficulties. They are also prone to infectious diseases. Because of their stubborn nature to work hard, they may have problems in the intestine, reproductive organs, esophagus, muscles, back, head, mouth and throat.

Gemini - The Twins

The Characteristics of the Zodiac Sign Gemini
By Victor Epand

The third sign in the zodiac is Gemini. Those born between the dates of May 21st and June 21st have Gemini as their sun sign. The symbol of this group is the Twins due to the tendency of the people under this sign to have moods that change quickly and dramatically- often with little warning. The ruling planet of this sign is Mercury.

The Gemini loves variety and action as these things mirror what is going on within them. They have a diverse field of interests but they may be a jack of all trades and master of none. They tend to spread themselves too thin and fail to live up to their initial obligations.

Curiosity is what drives them forward and there is a strong desire to get in as many experiences as they can during their time on the planet. It is hard for them to tie themselves down to any one thing be it a job, hobby or relationship. They are very afraid of missing out on something. In academics, their curiosity spreads across a variety of topics and- while they may excel at collecting bits of information, they might not always have the full picture in mind.

Gemini Sign

Geminis are born communicators. Their minds are fast and light up when ideas are presented to them. This makes them excellent orators and writers. Extremely aware of what is happening around them, they want to be a participant in that action. If you find yourself put up against a Gemini in debate, you might as well concede defeat. These people have the ability to talk their way out of- and into- any imaginable situation. They are aware of their mental prowess and think nothing of using it against those of slower intellect in a mischievous fashion.

Totally extroverted, the Gemini thrives on having people around them. They may even be afraid of being alone. Their outgoing nature and wit will draw in a wide social group of people that will accompany the Gemini on their varying hobbies and interests. A conservative or indecisive person will turn this type of person off. They don't spend much time looking inwards (or looking back) and often don't know what their own motivations or those of others are. Shallowness and superficiality can punctuate their relationships.

Geminis may have trouble maintaining a long term romantic relationship due to their ever changing nature. They aren't much for mundane acts for the sake of them and dramatic scenes. Freedom tends to call this person even when they are in love but they can ignore the call. The Gemini is known for their altering moods. They can go from being tender and delicate to a dark mood with little warning. They are not above deceptions but try to treat people fairly for the most part. Being questioned by another will turn their blood cold but they will happily grill another person for hours with questions. It comes with the territory of being insanely curious but not very self aware.

Pisces - The Fish

The Month of Pisces
By Sharita Star

Goethe once said, “Choose well, your choice is brief, and yet endless.” Our zodiac wheel now concludes as our Sun enters the mutable water sign Pisces upon February 18th at 8:09pm EST. Mystic planet Neptune rules these communicators and those endless choices they have to make like their symbol, the Fish. Pause a moment and think of a ocean…it is the stage these natives perform their lives upon.
Ever questing without boundaries, Pisces are known to probe the depths of the mind like no other sign can. Known as the “grandparents of the zodiac,” the typical Fish flows through life assisting others through the voice of wisdom while they learn from experience. Their characters are sensitive, intuitive, sympathetic and mysterious.

Psychology, music, acting, the law, research or anything requiring acute mental analysis is where a Pisces thrives. Ideally the aim is to understand the grand view of life, while relating to all mankind in order to reap success. Keen in the abilities to believe, permeate, renounce, sacrifice of themselves, and receive impressions, they are often guided by psychic energy. The Piscean nature is known to be easy going, plastic, poetic, suggestible, emotional and self-pitying.

At worst the Fish’s nature can gravitate to laziness, instability, chaos, escapism, drug-abuse, (especially alcohol), and being in denial. They are highly warned to not fall prey to addictions. When they shut off the sagely wisdom they are meant to share with others, deep states of depression can be suffered. The cultivation of determination, concentration and the love of self will allow a Pisces to be the channel for the multitude of spiritual, healing and visionary gifts they are here to communicate to others.

Pisces Sign

Dreamy Pisces begins this month as Mercury is in Retrograde. What an opportune time to begin some early spring cleaning. As with any mutable sign, we know that a change of season is soon upon us. After the Full Moon in Virgo on the 3rd, the next two weeks that follow till the New Moon on March 18th grant us the perfect opportunity to look to the Piscean ruled House in the birth chart to see the area of life where our mental and physical clutter needs to be cleared the most.

Venus is one zodiac step ahead of our Sun this month as it transits through Aries. The collective can expect affections to be easily aroused, unrestrained, impetuous and chock full of romantic adventure. Depending upon the House Aries rules in any individual birth chart, one can expect benevolent Venus to bring harmony to that part of our lives.

Mars enters Aquarius this month and concludes its’ transit upon April 6th, bringing unusual desires that stimulate originality and humanitarian interests to the collective’s drives. The Aquarian ruled House in one’s astrological chart is influenced by an extra boost of leading energy that can allow completions to be fulfilled and realized. Looking ahead, Mars directly opposes Saturn in Leo upon March 22nd, where the collective can expect a regulation of energies that deal with executive abilities vs. self-reliance; the worst outcomes with these power struggles may sway to intolerant and vindictive reactions.May the gifts of wisdom, sensitivity, and intuition be your guides for those endless choices to be made in the month ahead.

Sagittarius - The Acher

The Characteristics of the Zodiac Sign of Sagittarius
By Victor Epand

The ninth sign in the zodiac is Sagittarius. Those born between the dates of November 23rd and December 23rd have this as their sun sign. It is symbolized by the Archer due to their constant need to seek out honesty and the heart of matters. Famous people who have this as their sign include comedian Jon Stewart and actors Scarlett Johannson, Ed Harris and Kenneth Branagh.

The Sagittarius person is optimistic and idealistic- striving for world peace and the perfect love. They are enthusiastic, outgoing and generous. They are great at seeing the big picture while missing the smaller details. Spontaneous, honest and often without tact the Archer seeks out honesty in all of its forms and means no harm when they are a little too blunt. Fiercely independent, they will not move from their spot unless that is what they want to do. But if you appeal to their desire for knowledge and enthusiastic curiosity, they can easily be convinced to skip over to your side of the path.

They are incredibly warm and friendly so others usually overlook their ability to stick their foot in their mouth. Their cheerful optimism can often translate into careless recklessness and extravagance. They love the outdoors and usually excel at sports. Disappointments do not weight them down. A Sagittarius picks back up and keeps going towards the next bump in the road. Unless something horrible happened in their childhood, there really is no getting this person down.

Sagittarius Sign

When they set a goal, it is set in the stars. Live is to be lived to the fullest and there is a striving to be the biggest and the best. Outgoing and open, they draw many people to them and are a great team member. But organizing and long term projects are better left to someone else. There is a lack of responsibility and reliability under this sign. But their charm keeps them for getting into trouble due to these weaknesses. They are also usually extremely well educated and knowledgeable. Higher education is actually a hallmark of this sign and they seek it out with their trademark enthusiasm.

There is a wandering spirit in the Sagittarius that can make it hard for them to commit to a long term relationship. They will not choose a clingy, jealous lover. They have a love hate relationship with stability. Their idealism can often create a less than realistic notion of what love can- and should- be. Dreams and beliefs are very important to this person and anything that trounces on them will not be kept around for long. They can cycle through periods of generosity, selfishness and insensitivity but nothing is meant by their petty moods. They are dedicated to fairness and balance and will try to make their partner feel like a part of something special. If they are going through a selfish phase, a partner usually only need to point out what it is that the Sagittarius is neglecting and they will correct the behavior.

Capricorn - The Goat

Zodiac Symbol Capricorn From Vedic Astrology
By Victor Epand

Many individuals pick up the paper and read their horoscope, but few really understand the Zodiac symbols or signs that they were born under and what their true meaning is. With Vedic Astrology, the study of the Zodiac is much more personalized with the understanding that the sun represents an individual's inner nature, personalities, and characteristics.

Capricorn, the Sea Goat, who is a methodical sure-footed climber, is a feminine sign and the tenth sign under the Zodiac calendar. The sea goat is half-goat and half-fish and symbolizes the death of the lower mind and birth of the spirit. In ancient times, the goat was a popular animal that was often sacrificed to the Gods as well. It is ruled by Saturn, which is known for its power of structure and responsibility, and the planet Mars, which is known for its action and desire.

Saturn is the king that gives individuals who are born under the Capricorn sign their karma, which is strong. Capricorn is an earth sign and individuals born under this sign tend to be possessive and quite jealous in nature. These individuals are also very goal-oriented and know what it takes to get the job done, so they are ambitious enough to try and acquire positions that have power and authority or positions that are admired by others.

Capricorn individuals are tenacious, logical, and equipped with urge to work long and hard. They will not hesitate at an opportunity to advanced or be promoted. They have a will to succeed in their strong will for personal ambition. These individuals are ambitious and are determined to succeed no matter what it may take and have the natural abilities of being executives or managers.

Early in life they have to learn how to overcome insecurities, but they will soon become grounded and succeed due to their initiative and overwhelming willingness to accept responsibilities.
One of the downfalls of Capricorns is that their pride is so strong that it makes it hard for them to admit whenever they are wrong or, when they are in need of assistance, to be able to ask others for help. They lack confidence that tends to make them defensive and even compete more aggressively to make up for this lack of confidence. They view this insecurity and their fears as a great weakness and try to hide these feelings and any other similar feelings from others, which does make it hard for others to become close to Capricorns. These individuals need a structured guideline to follow to obtain their goals, because if not, then they will often lose their way.

Capricorn Sign

Capricorns are constantly in search of reaching the top and are happy to work hard and long to get what needs to be done to finish a job. Their readiness and energy is worthy in any given situation, but they can be lazy if they feel there is no need in working or if the same results can be achieved in another manner. Capricorns often fail to see the point of personal jokes, but their sense of humor is impeccable. They do hold grudges and beware for they might seek revenge as a result.

Capricorns tend to be builders, engineer, lawyers, business executives, and even politicians. Once they gain an understanding of a situation, then they are capable of easily manipulating it. These Capricorns live with traditional values, regulations, and rules along with thought and actions of proper behavior. At times, later in life these might be rejected.

Capricorns will develop good eating habits at an early age that they will keep with them as adults. They are actively competitive in sports and are known to be aggressive in their determination to win, but are gracious with losing. Capricorns enjoy participating in jogging, running, skating, hunting, wrestling, boxing, body building, and martial arts.

Taurus - The Bull

The Star Sign Taurus
By Hanne Klein

Taurus energy is not about pioneering, they are settlers and it is in the month of Taurus that we anchor the ideas that where created in Aries. Aries has these idealistic plans ready to go but it needs to be nurtured and cared for, and Taurus represents good solid caring people, they know how to nurture and care for these great plans and put them into practise. Taurus energy is very earthy, it represents stability, practicality, gentleness, kindness, loyalty, and it's about security.

Taurus doesn't scatter their energies but conserve them. Taurus is good natured people and set high standards for themselves and lives up to them, and quite often expect others to live up to them as well. They need to unwind and accept people as they are, and bear in mind that human relationships are two way streets, like a mirror a reflection of you.

Taurus should always rely on their good nature and patience in their relationships because that way they will keep all those genuine, loyal friends they so strongly desire to have.

Taurus Sign

Taurus like plenty of space and do not like to be fenced in. The Taurus energies give us the courage to break free from controlled energy. We allow ourselves to be controlled so that others will accept us, and we control ourself so much because we are worried that we are not good enough.

Taurus allows us to break free nurture and care for our emotions. In the month of Taurus it is time to get back to nature and get one with nature, it's time to anchor your ideas and put them into practise. It's time to get physical, you swim - run - walk - fish - jog, and get into your garden and spend as much time out in nature as possible. What will happen when you get really close to nature is that on a very deep level you begin to tune in with your own plans and path you want to follow in the future.

Aries - The Ram

Understanding Aries
By Donna Page

Are you an Aries? Do you have an Aries friend that you want to understand? The energy of Aries is one of the most dynamic in the zodiac.
We all can learn a lot from our Aries friends on how to be focused in creating our life as our own work of art and not the life that our parents, teachers or society thinks we are supposed to have. If you are an Aries and you feel your life isn't yours; watch out! Major problems will arise as your life task is to seek your own path and live the life of your design.

Aires is ruled by the warrior planet Mars Aries is a fire sign and is outward going in its energy. Think of the element of fire, it needs fuel to stay alive and heat is given off from fire. That is one reason why Aries always needs something new to do or a new challenge, it is the fuel to keep the fire alive.

Short-term goals will keep Aries motivated and tangible results are achieved rapidly. Aries life mission is to be bold and self-confident; although Aries tend to be overly impulsive the lesson will be to know when to be impulsive and when to temper the "I got to do it now" feelings. Aries is meant to have challenges and something to fight for and will not be diverted from his or her purpose except by your their impatience.

Aries Sign

Aries is the first sign of the new zodiacal year, it is the sign of new beginnings, and is adventurous, ambitious, impulsive and full of life and exuberance. The Arian is a pioneer in both thought and action, open to new ideas and a lover of freedom. Aries has the urge to get things started and lead the way and have total self expression.

If you are an Aries or know an Aries who is not self expressed and putting it all out there for the world to see then there is another part of the chart that is inhibiting the Aries spirit. When this happens it will be important to recognize the internal conflict and find a way to let Aries spirit be free.

We all have Aries somewhere in our chart, it may not be a dominant part of what we are expressing but it is a vital characteristic to learn, nurture and develop. Who doesn't want to be free to live a life of our own design? Who wouldn't want the courage to master our fears?

The next time you have a challenge to face, or someone is trying to manipulate you into doing something you don't want, call upon the essence of Aries and hold true to your inner presence of living your life as you want it.

Virgo - The Virgin

Virgo Zodiac Sign Astrology Characteristics and Personality
By Dee Cohen

The Virgo Zodiac Sign is an astrological sign which is
associated with the constellation Virgo. It is found under
the tropical zodiac and is occupied by the sun from 23
August to 22 September each year. The opposite sign to Virgo
is Pisces.

It is the sixth sign of the Zodiac and is associated with purity and service. Those individuals who are born under this sign are thought to be diligent, analytical, self-sufficient, controlled, orderly, modest and intellectual. But they are also prone to being fussy, a perfectionist, harsh with their criticism, can be cold towards others and may be hypocondriacs.

nerves to be found in the abdomen), the lower lobes of a persons liver, the pancreas, portal veins, umbilicus, hands, nails and finally carpal bones.

Virgo Sign

Traditionally the sign is thought to be ruled by the planet Mecury, but during the late 19th Century and early 20th Century it was speculated that the planet Vulcan (which is thought to be located near Mercury) is in fact its true planetary ruler. Currently the vast majority of astrologers still think of Mercury as the planetary ruler for this sign.

Physically those people who are born under the sign of Virgo tend to have a graceful figure, a roundish head, full and delicately shaped lips, perfect teeth, a clear complexion, large and clear eyes and are characterized by small, symmetrical and refined features. They also often have a high forehead, a thin nose as well as thin eyebrowsand coarsely textured hair. Many people who were born under this sign are usually thought to be of slightly above average height. Of course there are just generalizations and the moon sign and ascendant signs are very important as well.

There is much more that you can discover about the Virgo Zodiac Sign by surfing around as well as observing people and their patterns.

Libra - The Balance

Some of the Interesting Characteristics of Libra
By Gjyh Vbng

Libra Symbol Brings Balance And Harmony: You feel threatened with disagreements and conflicts. You need a balance in your life as well as the surroundings. With scales as your Zodiac sign, you tend to weigh all the pros and cons of things which make you indecisive at times.

Libra Likes To Float Into Their Own Universe: As a Libran you are a diplomatic and indecisive person who loves to socialize. Because you have a carefree nature, you do not want to be committed to any particular thing; in fact you like to have a little of everything. You dislike arguments and want peace and harmony around you. You want every person around you to be happy. You live in your own make-believe world and only want to see what you like to see. This makes you a bit lazy and laid back. You would never do anything if it does not interest you.

Libra Sign

Librans Love Their Relationships: You need a steady partner. You like to have a relationship built on sharing and trust and want your partner to share his/her thoughts and emotions with you.

Cancer - The Crab

The Characteristics of the Zodiac Sign of Cancer
By Victor Epand

The fourth sign of the zodiac is Cancer. Those born between June 22nd and July 22nd have this as their sun sign. It is symbolized by the Crab due to their protective outer shells. The sign is ruled by the moon.

Cancers are sensitive and moody, often heavily influenced by their environment. That Crab shell is around their feelings and the feelings of those close to them. Their feelings of nurturing are strong but their moods can change as if with the cycles of the moon. Trust is not a hallmark here- favoring instead skepticism and distrust. In spite of that, the Crab needs to let others see who they are. If there aren't any takers around, they will disappear back into that shell. When a dark mood takes over their behavior, it is common for them to be snappy. Their normal nature is quiet and reserved, retreating when they feel threatened.

They are sentimental and tend to cling to souvenirs. It is so hard for them to part with things they have attached value to that they can become pack rats. Family and home are the center of their existence to the point that they can lose their individual self. There is a parental nurturing here that is protective and caring. Cancers that don't have families of their own are likely to adopt friends or others around them in a family type environment.

Cancer Sign

Cancers are excellent workers- dedicated to their task and respectful of authority. Disruption and change are not things they are comfortable with. Money is also of top importance but for the security that it brings rather than the spoils. They need to have that shell safely in place, after all.

Romantic relationships will also revolve around security for the Cancer person. There is also a need for them to nurture or be nurtured by someone else. It is likely that they will marry young but it might not be their last marriage. They need their partners to show weakness and vulnerability. They are emotional but not good at talking about it, requiring some sign reading from their partner. The Cancer partner is likely to alter between moods. They might like to explore a bit out in the world but they will never do anything to damage the security of their relationship at home.

Cancers do not do well in separations and are unlikely to be the ones that leave. They don't like confrontations and would much rather be passive aggressive until the other person walks away. But it takes a lot for them to get to that point. Insensitivity and betrayal are the two things that will send the Cancer towards the door. The Cancer isn't good at being vulnerable and if their partner does something to damage the trust they have shown, it may be forgiven but it will never be forgotten. They desperately need to be close to another person, although their often infuriating moods can make that hard to see. But they are also gentle, sensitive, imaginative and protective.

Leo - The Lion

The Characteristics of the Zodiac Sign of Leo
By Victor Epand

The fifth sign of the zodiac is Leo. Those born between the dates of July 23rd and August 22nd have this as their sun sign. It is symbolized by the Lion because of the regal nature that is typical of the animal and the people born under this sign.
The Leo is the king of the human jungle. Their magnetic, good nature draws in friends and can even bring followers. This is not a wallflower. Ambitious, dominant, forceful and determined the Leo makes a great leader. Their magnetism makes it easy for them to convince others that their point or way is the correct one. They are good at organization, direct and outspoken in a way that doesn't upset anyone.

The Leo likes to have attention on them especially in the forms of admiration and recognition. They are the star of the show and it is a dramatic show indeed. They have a great deal of emotional energy and think fairly highly of themselves- though they are still susceptible to flattery. Power, glamour and fun will draw a Leo into any situation. Ego is both their strength and weakness.

Leos excel at the arts- especially on the stage- but also make good teachers. Strongly bonded to children, the Leo is protective and nurturing. But teaching may not appeal to the Leos love of action and drama. Center stage is the only part of the stage that matters to these people.

Leo Sign

Leos are desperately idealistic and romantic, though they might try to hide behind cynicism (they are actors, after all). The Lions see things in black and white and gray complexities confuse and wound them. It seems like those who understand the gray area are playing a game to which the Leo doesn't know the rules and they don't like being left out. This extends to their relationships, when the punctures to their ideals can send the Leo retreating to their throne.

Leos also don't understand petty or ambiguous behavior or nastiness. Those aspects may exist in the Lion but they do an honorable job of keeping them in check. Honor and loyalty are the things they value most in relationships. But unfortunately those things can be hard to find.
Leos worship the concept of love. They are romantic and generous with gifts that are exotic and expensive. The Lion prefers to give than receive but a negative reaction to the present would crush them. They can make a relationship seem special and magical. Though they like attention from others, the Leo is far too loyal to stray. If they love a person, they would move the heavens and earth for them. If their partner betrays them, it will rarely be forgiven. Their heart is idealistic and naive and the hurt from such an act will wound their dignified sense of self. The Leo needs loyalty and to be treated like royalty. In return for this, they will fight for their partner through any battle, make sacrifices and offer up total support. In the name of love, they can give up anything without regret.

Aquarius - The Water Bearer

This is the Age of Aquarius
By Victor Epand

Through studying the Zodiac in a variety of vedic astrology books and magazines individuals are capable of learning so much about their inner selves through their horoscopes. With this comes the understanding and the knowledge that the Zodiac is much more personalized with the understanding that the sun represents an individuals inner nature, personalities, and characteristics.
