What is Astrology?
The study of the movements and relative positions
of celestial bodies interpreted as having an influence
on human affairs and the natural world.

HISTORY

Astrology consists of several pseudoscientific
systems of divination based on the premise that
there is a relationship between astronomical
phenomena and events in the human world. Many cultures have attached importance
to astronomical events, and the Indians, Chinese,
and Mayans developed elaborate systems for
predicting terrestrial events from celestial
observations. In the West, astrology most often
consists of a system of horoscopes purporting to
explain aspects of a person's personality and predict
future events in their life based on the positions of
the sun, moon, and other celestial objects at the
time of their birth. The majority of professional
astrologers rely on such systems.
Throughout most of its history, astrology was
considered a scholarly tradition. It was accepted in
political and academic contexts, and was connected
with other studies, such as astronomy, alchemy,
meteorology, and medicine. At the end of the 17th
century, new scientific concepts in astronomy and
physics (such as heliocentrism and Newtonian
mechanics) called astrology into question. Astrology
thus lost its academic and theoretical standing, and
common belief in astrology has largely declined.
Astrology has been rejected by the scientific
community as a pseudoscience, having no validity or
explanatory power for describing the universe.
Among other issues, there is no proposed
mechanism of action by which the positions and
motions of stars and planets could affect people and
events on Earth that does not contradict well
understood basic aspects of biology and physics. Scientific testing of astrology has found
no evidence to support any of the premises or
purported effects outlined in astrological traditions.
Astrology has been dated to at least the 2nd
millennium BCE, with roots in calendrical systems
used to predict seasonal shifts and to interpret
celestial cycles as signs of divine communications.
A form of astrology was practised in the first
dynasty of Mesopotamia (1950–1651 BCE). Chinese
astrology was elaborated in the Zhou dynasty (1046–
256 BCE). Hellenistic astrology after 332 BCE mixed
Babylonian astrology with Egyptian Decanic
astrology in Alexandria, creating horoscopic
astrology. Alexander the Great's conquest of Asia
allowed astrology to spread to Ancient Greece and
Rome. In Rome, astrology was associated with
Chaldean wisdom. After the conquest of Alexandria
in the 7th century, astrology was taken up by Islamic
scholars, and Hellenistic texts were translated into
Arabic and Persian. In the 12th century, Arabic texts
were imported to Europe and translated into Latin,
helping to initiate the European Renaissance, when
major astronomers including Tycho Brahe,
Johannes Kepler and Galileo practised as court
astrologers. Astrological references appear in
literature in the works of poets such as Dante
Alighieri and Geoffrey Chaucer, and of playwrights
such as Lope de Vega, Calderón de la Barca,
Christopher Marlowe and William Shakespeare.

There is more to astrology than merely learning the zodiac signs and meanings. However, everybody knows that half the fun to astrology is learning about all the different zodiac signs and meanings for each. There's something exciting and wonderful about reading the characteristics of our zodiac signs. We all smile and say "Yes, that's me!" or "Wow, that really describes my personality!" When we look at our zodiac sign dates (that is, the date we were born indicating our zodiac signs and meanings) we are looking at our sun sign. Sun signs refer to the position of the sun upon the time of our birth. As you continue to study astrology, you can begin to associate these zodiac traits to your co-workers, friends and family - even strangers! Once you know the date a person is born and the zodiac signs and meanings associated with his/her birthday, you have some amazing deductive capabilities at your disposal. Astrology is a window into unseen realms. It helps us learn who we are and others too. Further, it serves as a tool to enhance our understanding and compassion towards others. For example, if your co-worker snaps at you in irritation and seems cranky this week, you may want to consult the zodiac signs and meanings for an explanation. If you find your co-worker is a Sagittarius, you know she's usually pretty easy-going, so something major might be going on in her life. With a little more research, you may find that certain planets moving through her sign can cause your Sagittarian co-worker to be in a bit of a tailspin. Knowing these details gives you more patience and compassion. Instead of barking back at your co- worker, you can empathize and understand that she's just going through a phase - nothing personal. Have fun with the zodiac signs and meanings below listed. Use them as a basic guide to help you understand the various personalities of the people in your life. But please, this is only a guide - I encourage you to study further and continue to gather your own knowledge on the fascinating subject of astrology.

Aries and Independence:

Aries personalities are independent. Being the first of
the zodiac signs, they venture out and are go-getters,
often leading the way. Their upbeat and magnetic
personality often entices others to follow their lead
because Aries personalities bring excitement into
others lives.

Aries and Friendship:

Aries are good friends, they always look out for their
friends with caring and generosity and will protect
them should the need arise and encourage them with
their natural optimism. If confronted, Aries can turn
to be quite childish, they will fight back with their
agressive nature and are known to have temper
tantrums should they not get their way.

Aries and Business:

Aries are activists. If a business idea comes their
way, they tend to plunge right in. Aries are more then
willing to take a gamble and follow their dreams and
goals. However, if success is not immediate, they
tend to lose interest and give up easily. Aries are
notorious for not finishing what they have begun.
This is due to the low tolerance for boredom and lack
of patience. If the excitement is gone from their
business idea, they go off and search for it
elsewhere.

Aries Temperament:

Independence is key to Aries astrology, they do not
like to take orders from others and enjoy getting
their way. They can get childish or moody should
they be given orders that they do not like. Aries easily
take offense to comments made. Aries are self-
involved and can be self-centered, if they do not pay
attention to the feelings of others, Aries can easily
become spoiled and resented by others. In order to
get their way, Aries will tell a lie if it seems
advantageous to do so. They are however, not very
good liars and other people can usually see through
them.

Aries Deep Inside:

Underneath the strong, independent surface may lie
insecurity. This is due to the intense drive to succeed
and Aries put too much pressure on themselves, thus
resulting in self-doubt however, the natural optimism
and enthusiasm overtakes this and the underlying
insecurity may never be known to others.

Aries in a Nutshell:

Aries is the first of the zodiac signs. Aries is the sign
of the self, people born under this sign strongly
project their personalities onto others and can be
very self-oriented. Aries tend to venture out into the
world and leave impressions on others that they are
exciting, vibrant and talkative. Aries tend to live
adventurous lives and like to be the center of
attention, but rightly so since they are natural,
confident leaders. Aries are enthusiastic about their
goals and enjoy the thrill of the hunt, "wanting is
always better then getting" is a good way to sum it
up. Aries are very impulsive and usually do not think
before they act - or speak. Too often Aries will say
whatever pops into their head and usually end up
regretting it later!

Taurus and Independence:

Taurus is not the one who ventures out into the
unknown and leads the way, Taurus is the one that
will follow the leader and strengthen and build upon
the discovered, in other words they are the one that
will "dot the I's and cross the T's". This perseverance
is given to them by their stubborn streak. Taurus
stubborn streak is what gives their independence.
They like to do things their way. They are perfectly
fine on being alone, this way things get done they
way they want them to be done. Taurus is not a
follower, but they are not the brave one either.
Taurus is perfectly independent. With their
perseverance, they get things done and can do quite
well for themselves.

Taurus and Friendship:

A Taurus is an excellent friend. Taurus has few close
friends as opposed to many acquaintances. The few
people they hold dear to them are guarded and
protected. Their friends are treated like family and
they are fiercely loyal and dependable. Taurus loves
to be the host or hostess. Although not a total social
butterfly, they can be shy around strangers, the
people who Taurus let into their lives are lavishly
catered to when Taurus decides to throw a party,
they decorate and present everything lavishly. Taurus
will always pamper themselves and their close group
of friends.

Taurus and Business:

Taurus is a strong business person. Taurus is the one
who has immense perseverance, even when others
have given up, the Taurus rages on. They have a
knack for finance and their financial advice is prized.
They know where money is to be made and have the
ability to manipulate and set the path for their own
success. Taurus are not frivolous spenders but they
like to live lavishly and surround themselves with
nice possessions and foods, which all adds up
resulting in large spending habits. They will not
spend all their money and cause their business to fail
because if they do, their security and stability will be
gone and this will cause them great stress.

Taurus Temperament:

Taurus are deeply sensitive, the slightest comment or
negative remark will be taken personally and they can
easily get offended or hurt. Their stubborn streak
results in laziness. They can be very lazy when
someone gives them orders or wants them to do
something they do not want to do. They are not lazy
when it comes to themselves,

Taurus Deep Inside:

Taurus are not fond of change. In fact, is change is
imminent, they get very nervous and worried. They
do not like anything new because anything new is
unknown and Taurus fears the unknown. Taurus
needs order in their lives and when they do not have
order, they get very anxious. Taurus will cut
themselves off from the unfamiliar in order to avoid
the feelings of insecurity that arise when new
experiences and situations are present. Taurus do
not express their feelings openly and their inner self
is contained and secretive. Many people do not know
how sensitive Taurus really is, they hide it well. As a
result, they are often emotionally hurt when the
wrong things are said, they take things too personally
sometimes. Taurus avoids talking about their
emotions and many people never really know how
they feel.

Taurus in a Nutshell:

Taurus is the one who has immense perseverance,
even when others have given up, the Taurus rages
on. Solid and persistent, just like the bull, which is
Taurus' well suited symbol. Taurus's have a well
known reputation for being stubborn, which is not
necessarily a bad thing. The stubborn streak can
cause Taurus to butt heads and conflict with other
strong character types. Taurus are not fond of
change. They like the familiar and routine comfort of
life. Taurus is easy going and not one to pick a fight
but should some poor souls attempt to provoke
Taurus, the wrath will be known, for they have a
temper underneath the calm surface. Taurus are very
responsive to their surroundings. They like
decorations, color, anything that appeals to all the
senses. Taurus like possessions and the Taurus
home is nicely decorated with lots of things. Taurus
are down to earth, they do not like gaudy, flashy or
over the top things. They prefer comfortable and
creative settings and objects. Taurus likes security, in
every aspect of their lives from home, to love, to
career. Taurus can be secretive, opinionated and
stingy. Taurus tend to be self-indulgent and lazy,
Taurus are master procrastinators of the astrology
zodiac! They do however have a strong, persistent
drive that comes to life when they chose, and no one
would ever know that they are lazy. The secret to this
is that their laziness is pushed aside when it comes to
themselves.

Taurus Love, Sex and Relationships

What it's like to date a Taurus Woman:
Taurus women are masters in the art of seduction.
She will get what she wants but her patience is
incredible, she will wait for what she wants She
needs stability and security and will not tolerate a
man who is not straight with her and leads her along
with uncertainty in the future. She is the old-
fashioned type, the type of woman who is associated
with the drive-in soda shop days of the 60's. She is
down to earth, protective, supportive, loving, devoted
and loyal. She is openly affectionate in a relationship.
Taurus women is perfect for the man who likes to be
nurtured and pampered, providing you are loyal and

sensitive although she might not seem so on the
exterior. Court her and constantly try to impress her
and you will win her heart and she will be yours.

will become extremely stubborn. If you ever break
her trust, it will be nearly impossible to gain it back
again.

What it's like to date a Taurus Man:

The Taurus man is very sensible, he is not the man to
sweep you off your feet. He is practical and down to
earth. He wants a high quality woman, not a woman
for one night. He will survey cautiously before he
makes his approach. He is very patient when it comes
to a relationship. He will survey the situation and
make sure the woman has something to offer him,
before he offers himself. Taurus man is a romantic
man, he will put his woman on a pedestal, protect
her and cherish her. Once he has chosen his woman,
he will be very generous, loyal and faithful. He is not
a boring man, but he is not for the woman who
craves adventure and excitement. Taurus man is for
the woman who craves stability and comfort, he is an
incredible provider and is a very fine choice as a
partner for the right woman. He is in it for the long
haul so commitment is no problem for this man.

Do not attempt to rush into a relationship with
Taurus. They are very patient and expect you to be so
too. Make them laugh, if they are amused and
entertained by you, they will enjoy being with you.
The way to a Taurus' heart is through their stomachs.
Cook for them or offer to take them to a fine upscale
restaurant. Taurus enjoy talking about finance,
business, money and material possessions.
Taurus Erogenous Zone:
The throat and neck are the hot spots for any Taurus.
Lightly rub the neck, kiss it gently, lick it lightly, even a
soft nipple will make them melt like butter! Massage
the back of the neck while you are relaxing, this relax
them and set the mood for passion!

Sex With Taurus:

They are passionate lovers. They have lots of physical
stamina and this makes up for the lack of variety in
the sex life.

Astrology is not real. Astrology is not science.

The position of celestial bodies at the time of your birth has no correlation with your personality.

And what with using animals to connect with humans?

Chizzled06:

Really?

Anas09:
And what with using animals to connect with humans?

Animals or objects associated with any zodiac signs means they have the same or almost the same characters. Examples are the Taureans,they have a bull symbol because they exhibit "BULL's CHARACTER"... not all zodiac signs are represented with an animal symbol. Examples, we have the virgos,there symbol is "the virgin" while Cancerians are best represented with "the crab".

And librans are scales.

You start well, but when you go into stuff like Business, sex, how to date.... You start to miss road.

Are you describing Sun Signs, or are you just describing the sign in and of itself?

Sun signs will give you an overall idea of how a person presents himself in society. However you will be lashing out in the dark if you try to ascertain sexual nature from sun signs. To understand sexuality you are better off looking at where Mars is in the chart. Also look at the ascendant.

Isaac Newton was a super smart guy, but unfortunately he had his limitations, understandable when you consider the era he lived in. Are you aware that he was an alchemist?

What does acupunction have in common with an Economic theory such as Ricardo's theory of Profits that makes them both scientific while Astrology is not?

Or maybe we can approach it another way. What does Astrology Lack that Darwin's theory of evolution has making it not scientific?

That definition of astrology was from a dictionary. Check it out yourself.

Please don't go there. Darwin's theory is the bedrock of biological, anthropological and paleontological science. Proven by numerous fossil and DNA evidence.

Economic theories are social sciences.

Acupuncture is alternative medicine, proven by scientific research to alleviate noninflammatory pains.

Astrology is baseless myth.

You start well, but when you go into stuff like Business, sex, how to date.... You start to miss road.

Are you describing Sun Signs, or are you just describing the sign in and of itself?

Sun signs will give you an overall idea of how a person presents himself in society. However you will be lashing out in the dark if you try to ascertain sexual nature from sun signs. To understand sexuality you are better off looking at where Mars is in the chart. Also look at the ascendant.

I strongly disagree,sir...
You got it all wrong,we all know that your
sun sign determines your basic approach[including your approach to business and relationships] to life and
your general nature. It determines your personality,your natural behaviour including your "sexual behaviour",...
Although other signs contribute to
your character, dreams, relationships, and
temperament .i.e. your moon sign and your rising
sign[ascendant] but not as much the sun sign...
We all know rising sign or ascendant is the mask we wear on our face,it is how we interact with the world and how the world sees or view us.
Your rising sign is so outward, it can even influence
your physical characteristics and mannerisms and it determines your appearance like those
with an Aries ascendant most likely walk quickly, have
broad shoulders, and are prone to headaches and
sinus problems. Those with a Gemini rising are often
tall and slender with dark hair. Virgo ascendants may
have weak chins, but they have big brains. Librans
are often good looking and Scorpios often have
piercing eyes. Your rising sun is like your personal "destiny" ;your key to your external self... Your rising sun can only be calculated if you know the exact time of your birth
And your moon sign reveals your inner self. It can give
insight into the way you handle your emotions and
fears; it can also give insight into the way you love
and feel. The moon also governs your moods.
Have you ever met someone with your same sun sign
and found that person to be nothing like you? You
probably have different moon signs.

And as regards checking where Mars is on the chart,I don't seem to get that. Are you implying horoscope readings? I mean when Mars like every other planets orbit into our signs?
Mars is the planet that rules sexuality and sexual energy, and
governs weapons, accidents and surgery (the last
two illustrating the yin and yang nature of this
planet). In the end, however, the energy of Mars
can be quite useful if used properly.
It takes nearly two years for Mars to complete its
orbit through the zodiac. It is masculine energy and
rules both Aries and Scorpio, and the First and
Eighth Houses.


Note: sun sign can be determined by your date of birth but you must know the exact time you were born to calculate your rising sign and your moon sign.

I stand to be corrected though...

Gemini and Independence:

Gemini are extremely independent. They will not be
pinned down by anyone or any rules. They need to
experience the world on their own. Change and
freedom are extremely important to Gemini, they will
never let anyone dictate them, they are extremely
independent and freedom is essential to their mental
well being.

Gemini and Friendship:

Gemini make very interesting and exciting friends.
They like to leave their mark on everyone they meet.
They are very flighty and will disappear for a long
time as they meet new friends and explore new
places. But when they come back, they will have new
thoughts, opinions and interesting things to share
and ideas to teach. Life is very interesting and fun
with a Gemini friend. If you need any advice, Gemini
is the one to ask. They are masters of communication
and they can help you get what you need by helping
you with persuasion and enthusiasm, and they give
good advice too. Do not however, bog a Gemini down
with all of your emotional problems, they are not
want to deal with it because it depresses them and
steps on their freedom if you need too much long
term help, support and follow up. A Gemini friend
can fill you in with the latest gossip and if you love
conversation, the Gemini delivers! They are very
generous with their friends, they will spend lots of
time with you and share everything with you. Even
though Gemini is a social butterfly, they always need
time for themselves and that should be respected.

Gemini and Business:

Gemini tends to disperse their energy on different
tasks and not just focus on one thing thus leaving a
trail of unfinished projects in their wake. If they were
to focus their energy in one place, their cleverness
and intelligence would allow them to complete their
project with success and creativity. Gemini makes an
excellent manager, they can motivate a team with
their enthusiasm and vitality. They also make
excellent salespeople because their ease of
communication allows them to be clever and make a
comeback to anything a person says. They can
persuade and manipulate very well. They can easily
justify any move they make and explain any action.

Gemini Temperament:

Gemini have the ability to react instantly to situations,
and as a result, they have a very nervous
temperament. They can be compared to a wound up
spring as they attempt to absorb everything they can
about their surroundings at once. The fact that they
enjoy various situations and people add to their
nervousness and that means they are almost
constantly wound up. However, if they experience
boredom and have nothing to survey, they get the
same emotions, the need for excitement and variety.
This is the Gemini duality, constantly conflicting
emotions in one spontaneous, excitable package.

Gemini Deep Inside:

One downfall of Gemini is their superficiality. Instead
of looking deep into a person's real qualities, Gemini
will judge a person by the way they treat them. This
can lead Gemini to have wrong impressions of
people and can cause problems ion relationships.
Gemini's can have feeling of discouragement and
moodiness although they never allow this to be seen
by anyone but heir closest friends or family. Gemini
usually want everyone to think that they are always
happy and doing wonderfully and stress never affects
them.

Gemini in a Nutshell:

Gemini people are many sided, quick both in the
mind and physically. They are brimming with energy
and vitality, they are clever with words. They are
intelligent and very adaptable to every situation and
every person. Gemini are curious and always want to
know what's going on in the world around them. They
are not one to sit back and watch the world go by,
they want to be involved. This can sometimes make
Gemini nosy, they do not mind their own business!
This is because they really enjoy communicating,
more so then most other astrology signs, they are
the ultimate social butterfly. Gemini can talk and talk,
but they have interesting things to say, their talk is
not mindless babble. They have interesting opinions
and thoughts on things and are not afraid to speak
their mind. They are always in the know and are the
one to see for the latest juicy gossip. Lacking
perseverance, Gemini easily goes off topic to explore
another thought or idea. Gemini are superficial, they
will form opinions on matter without diving into them
and exploring them fully. This can lead them into
thinking they know everything, which they usually do
but their mind is too busy to be concerned with fine
details. Routine and boredom are Gemini's biggest
fears. Gemini would rather be naive then know the
depressing truth, they do not want anything putting a
damper on their freedom or positive energy.

Gemini Love, Sex and Relationships


What it's like to date a Gemini Woman:

The Gemini woman is truly enchanting. However,
dating her might feel more like a friendship then a
real relationship due to her casual nature. This is not
necessarily a disadvantage, for the casual man who
shy's away from overly romantic emotions, she is the
perfect woman. Since she is the astrology sign of the
duality, she offers quite the challenge. One one hand,
she needs to be nurtured, loved and catered to and
on the other hand, she needs stimulation and
novelty. She is very demanding and if you do not
provide what she wants, she will be off onto the next
adventure pretty quickly. To keep her interested is a
challenge, not completely impossible so she is the
perfect woman for the man who likes stimulation and
a challenge. She needs a partner with a quick mind,
she tends to poke and prod at the emotions and the
minds of those who are mentally slower then her,
make sure you can keep up to her wit or you will
briskly be left behind. She is prone to keeping men
on a string, not completely heartlessly, she is
evaluating if the man is worth her attention and her
time she has no time to waste with a dull man. Once
you have her approval, she can easily become
jealous. The reason for her is jealousy is that if she is
going to open up to a man, when she rarely
completely opens up to anyone, she does not want to
risk her being deceived or hurt. If you are with a
Gemini woman and she becomes jealous, you are on
the right track to true love! Gemini women are so
exciting that they are worth the effort, you will
remember her forever!

What it's like to date a Gemini Man:

He is a great date - charming, witty, funny, clever,
talkative, creative, adventurous, just make sure you
can keep up with him! Women are drawn to Gemini
men because of their zest for life and their vitality
and enthusiasm. You may have competition to if you
are trying to win his heart. Do not expect to win him
and keep him all to yourself. He is flighty and dictates
his own,. He will not allow himself to be pinned down
and ruled by a woman. You are going to be his
sidekick, not his passionate lover. He loves women
and is very good at persuading them and
manipulating them with his cleverness getting them
into bed, he will say anything to get what he wants.
He is the master of seduction. If you are looking for a
great fling, the gemini man is your top choice.

How To Attract Gemini:

Love to talk, that is the first rule about impressing a
Gemini. Be knowledgeable about that you talk about
too because Gemini are intelligent and have lots of
knowledge about many things. If you are an expert
on a certain topic, teach them about it, you will
impress them because this know-it-all sign is does
not usually know fine details about a lot of things,
they are too busy to bother to learn. Speak your
mind, engage them in a friendly debate but never be
too conservative, they find this dull. Be honest and
loyal to a Gemini, once they have had their trust
broken they usually will never get it back again.
Gemini are easy to date, they will do any activity
anywhere. Just have fun, like you would with a
friends because that's what Gemini are, a great
friend.

Gemini Erogenous Zone:

Gemini's hot spots are the hands and arms. These
are very sensitive regions and are very receptive a
massage and a gentle touch or stroke. This also
calms the high-strung Gemini and relaxes them,
setting the mood for passion. Gemini's usually love
their finger being sucked or nibbled, a great
integration into pre-intimacy that will heighten the mood.
Gemini women love it when a man grabs their hand
and kisses it, like a princess.

Sex With Gemini:

Gemini loves to experiment and sex with a Gemini is
full of novelty and excitement, trying anything and
everything nearly anywhere. Gemini is not for the
faint of heart or the shy and secretive lovers!

- Clingy

- Oversensitive
- Self-absorbed

Cancer and Independence:

Cancer is the astrology sign that is packed full of
contradictions so when it comes to independence,
they possibly can or can not be independent. On one
side, they have the perseverance and drive to do
what needs to be done, they are self-sufficient and do
not need to depend on other people for the material
and physical things in life. On the other hand, they
depend on people for emotional support and
encouragement. A Cancer that is not fully self-
actualized will need the constant support of others
and will not be very independent but the Cancer that
is 'evolved' and has properly harnessed their
emotional issues will be wildly successful as an
independent human being. They crave attention and
comfort from other people and they are happiest
when they have a small, close knit group of friends or
family.

Cancer and Friendship:

Cancer is extremely loyal to those who appreciate
and support them, they are the nurturer of the zodiac
and will protect and cherish the person for a long
time. One of the greatest things about Cancer is their
ability to make others feel good about themselves
and loved. This is because instead of doing this for
themselves, they project this onto other people. This
is a positive cycle because in making others feel
nurtured, wanted and loved, they in return feel good
for making someone feel good. Other people can
lean on and depend on cancer, they will listen to
people's problems and help them however they will
rarely express their own deep feelings to anyone.
People who want to share deep emotional thoughts
and opinions with a Cancer might feel that the scales
are tipped on one side for cancer will rarely reveal
it's true deep feelings. A friend of Cancer is usually a
lifelong devoted friend that can be trusted.

Cancer and Business:

Once cancer resolved their emotional issues such as
shyness and insecurity, the powerful character will
shine though, there is practically nothing they can't
do. They have incredible perseverance and will stand
up for what they believe in. With their strong
intuition, sensitivity, powers of observation and
intelligence, they will have great success in anything
they undertake. They are excellent business people
and investors because of their intuitive and psychic
ability and their creative forward thinking mind, they
are able to predict future trends. They attract wealth
very well and know where to invest. Money and
financial well being is very important to Cancer and
this can help their drive in business. They need
financial security and if they allow themselves to
properly focus their energy and do not allow their
emotions to over take them, they are more then
capable of obtaining their financial goals and being
incredibly successful business people.

Cancer Temperament:

They are complex, fragile, unpredictable and
temperamental and need constant support and
encouragement, more then any other astrology
signs, Cancer needs to be needed. Even when all
needs are satisfied, they can be irritable and cranky.
They have an uneasy, delicate temperament. The
contradictory nature of Cancer gives their
temperament the wild mood swings and possible
temper tantrums. They are easily offended and will
sulk and wallow in self pity for a long time when they
get hurt.

Cancer Deep Inside:

It is difficult for cancer to open up and have a close
emotionally fulfilled relationship with someone
because they are so closed off emotionally and
physically to the world. This is driven by their fear of
trust, Cancer has a difficult time trusting people. This
causes built up anger and resentment inside, the
contradictory nature really takes a toll on them and
they can have a negative outlook on life, thinking that
life is just too hard and miserable. This is
unfortunate because when good experiences are to
be had, they are skeptical of people and their
surroundings and they experience tunnel vision due
to their depressed outlook and they miss the nice
things and happy experiences in life that make it
worth living. In addition to lack of trust for people,
Cancer is deeply sensitive and easily hurt, this is
other reason why they have their defense shell in
place, to avoid being hurt by others. Cancer lives in
the past. They hold past events close to them and
often dwell on the past. They have to learn to let go
and live in the present instead of spending their time
being sick with nostalgia. Cancer has a lot of
emotional issues to deal with but once they
overcome this large hump of shyness and insecurity,
there is practically nothing they can't do. With their
strong intuition, sensitivity, powers of observation
and intelligence, they will have great success in
anything they undertake. Cancer is constantly feeling,
feelings and emotions are hallmarks of this sign and
this is the root of their problems, human beings are
not as evolved in the emotional area and this is
where cancer gets the brunt of their problems. They
are the ones who have to cope with their strong
feelings more so then any other sign. Once properly
harnessed, there is nothing that is this powerful
astrology sign can not accomplish. Harmony is very
important to Cancer, it keeps them happy. Conflict of
any kind causes great distress. Deep inside, Cancer is
a very powerful sign, they have the ability to stand up
for what they think is right and they have lots of
perseverance and can be fine on their own provided
they don't let their emotions get the better of them
and have the stability they need. They are not fond of
change but they have the ability to do what needs to
be done, they are not pushovers or lazy people.

Cancer in a Nutshell:

Cancer is a mysterious sign, filled with
contradictions. They want security and comfort yet
seek new adventure. They are very helpful to others
yet sometimes can be cranky and indifferent. Cancer
has a driving, forceful personality that can be easily
hidden beneath a calm, and cool exterior. The crab is
Cancer's ruling animal and it suits them well, they
can come out of their shell and fight but they can also
hide in their shell of skitter away back into the depths
of the ocean. They are very unpredictable. With
cancer, there is always something more that meets
the eye, for they are always partially hidden behind
the shell. They are a have a deep psyche and intuitive
mind that is hidden from the world. Cancer is deeply
sensitive and easily hurt, this might be why they have
their defense shell in place, to avoids being hurt by
others. They are nurturers so they surround
themselves with people, whom after a while can
offend or hurt a cancer without even knowing they
did so, therefore Cancer's protective shell keeps
them safe from hurt. They are complex, fragile,
unpredictable and temperamental and need constant
support and encouragement, more then any other
astrology signs, Cancer needs to be needed. When
cancer gets the support it needs, it has a tremendous
amount to offer in return. When cancer gets
offended, they tend to sulk instead of confronting the
persons face to face. This needlessly prolongs the
pain and suffering. Cancer is very possessive, not just
with material possessions but with people as well.
Cancer will always want to stay in touch with old
friends and anyone who has ever been close to them,
because it is easier to maintain a friendship then
attempt to learn to trust a new person. It is easier
this way for them emotionally. If you befriend a
Cancer, you will stay friends for a long time. Cancer
makes the perfect mother, this is the sign that
represents motherhood. They have unconditional
love and caring more so then any other astrology
sign. Cancer are very intuitive. Most of the psychics
of the world are Cancer astrology signs. They have an
excellent memory and are very observant and can
read people very well. They can usually tell of other
people's intentions are good or not. Never dupe a
Cancer, they can see your motives. Cancer has a lot
of emotional issues to deal with but once they
overcome this large hump of shyness and insecurity,
there is practically nothing they can't do. With their
strong intuition, sensitivity, powers of observation
and intelligence, they will have great success in
anything they undertake.

deep emotions and passion brewing underneath the
exterior. To reach these will require time, patience
and tenderness. Do not expect to have her open up
to you right away and jump into a relationship. She
will not make the first move and will not be forward
with you, you have to do all the work. Do not try to
lead her on because Cancer woman is very in-tune
with a persons motivations and she will see right
through you. Trust is the single most important thing
to Cancer. If you ever betray her trust, you might as
well move on. She needs love and security. Cancer is

The Cancer man will not be direct with you. He will
approach you cautiously and slowly. He will be very
romantic and flirty and attempt to court you and win
your heart with lavish gifts and attention. The reason
he will never be direct with you is that he has a
strong underlying fear of rejection. Of you are
interested in a Cancer man, you will probably have to
make the first move and ask him on a date. He falls in
love easily and will make you his whole world. Once
you "belong to him", he will hold on to you and can
become quite jealous and possessive. This is
because
he is worried he will lose you to another man and
that would crush his spirit. He needs you to be loyal
and faithful for he is the same, in a strong and close
relationship, Cancer men are the most loyal of the
astrology signs. They make excellent lovers for the

off her feet. Cancer is very affectionate and thrives on
holding hands all the time, and constant physical
contact as he absorbs the situation and experiences
with his feelings. The cancer man is all about feeling.

calm and cool exterior but underneath, he feels
deeply and intensely. Cancer men are easily offended

tries to figure out and dissect what you said. Cancer
men are excellent male protectors, they are like the
knight in shining armor. If you are the kind of woman
that likes being looked after and cared for, and loves
affection and devotion, this romantic, sensual man is
perfect for you.

for them be known, this is the first step to initiating a
relationship with a Cancer. This way, will not have to

commitment is there is none because you will hurt

important. Build trust with them and they will
gradually get closer to you. Give them approval and
compliments but be careful because they will easily

sake of it. Be sincere. Ask Cancer for advice, share
your problems (but don't burden them), they enjoy
helping people and giving advice. They like culture

and the breasts. Both women and men respond well
to light sucking and kissing of the nipples. You must

rough. Stroke your fingers through Cancer man's
chest hair, lightly and gently this will ignite the firey
passion hidden behind the shell

reality. Leo man needs a woman who is grounded
and in-tune with the realities of life so she can help
him keep his feet on the ground. He may seem like he
is casual and detached about love but this is not the
case, he needs adoration and approval and if he
receives this, he feels quite passionately inside and
will treat her with amazing affection and be a
wonderful cheerful companion. The Leo man appears
to be a rock solid unemotional king but truthfully, he
is very sensitive. He wants a woman who caters to
him, not in a demanding way but he thinks he is
entitled to this because of how great he is. Leo men
are prone to be self-centered but underneath they
are gentle and have lots of love to give providing the
woman can give him what he wants. Leos get along
with just about anyone and just about any type of girl
is suited to him. The woman who caters to him and
overlooks his faults (he thinks he does not have any)
and the woman who does not nag at him will
obviously have preference and a chance at a long
term relationship. If the relationship lasts, eventually
she will have to teach him that he is not the only
great thing in the world.

How To Attract Leo:

Admiration is key. Admire them ands they will be
yours. Leo is a fairly easy sign to attract they are very
receptive to advances and come ons. Give them
compliments, dish them out in handfuls because
Leos never think a compliment can go too far. Even if
you are faking it, they don't care, the simply love the
attention. Be funny, Leos love to be entertained and
they love to laugh. If you can make them laugh,
you're good! Leos like the grand things in life, treat
them to a lavish dinner or a cultural upscale event.
Always have the best of the best and never try to
offer them second rate. They think nothing is too
good for them, they like everything posh so dress
classy and nice, and have a good night on the town
with the charming Leo!

Leo Erogenous Zone:

The back is Leo's most sensitive area. Most Leos have
a well defined muscular back, compliment them on it
while you lightly scratch your fingernails from the
base of the neck down to their buttocks. They love a
back rub or massage because to them it is being
pampered. Get scented massage oil and give them a
sensual massage and it is guaranteed to set the
mood for a night of passion!

Sex With Leo:

First impressions would tell you that Leo is all about
the kinky and novelty, but that is not so. They are
deeply sensual and passionate and enjoy posh
surroundings, such as candles and scented oils and
lots of affectionate physical contact such as
massages and rubbing. They like sex to be familiar,
not necessarily routine, but they like to know what's
going on. This is because Leo always has to be the
best and if there is a suggestion or something offered
that they have never done before, they would rather
pass on the chance then attempt it and be only
satisfactory. Leo has mastered the moves he know,
so do not be disappointed with the lack of novelty
and variety, because Leo is very good at what they
can do, they are the best.

Virgo and Independence:

Virgo is a very independent zodiac sign. They are fully
able to put their intelligence to use and get things
done for themselves. It is possible however that their
narrow mindedness causes their creativity to suffer
and they may lead regular routine lives. They may
dwell too much on the past and over complicate
things and this may limit their ability to move
forward and confuse themselves. In conclusion,
Virgos are able to be independent but the less
evolved types will have difficult if someone is not
there helping them to achieve more and not be so
critical of themselves.

Virgo and Friendship:

People look up to Virgo for friends because they are
straight thinkers and solve problems logically. They
are truthful, loyal and determined. Some people
might find them cold or emotionally detached
because they live in their minds, not in their
emotions and feelings. It might be hard to pin down
how a Virgo friend is feeling because they easily live
in denial. A person who is able to read deep into
another person will notice when Virgo is not well but
if they confront them about it, they would rather
retreat then talk about it. It is best to keep your
emotional distance from a Virgo friend unless they
open up to you first. Virgo might try to analyze and
control a friend's life but only with the idea that they
will improve their life, not purely for the sake of
controlling. Be patient with your Virgo friend and
understand that their recommendations are only to
make your life better.

Virgo and Business:

Virgos are very intelligent, they have an excellent
memory and a highly analytical mind. This makes
them good investigators and researchers. They also
have the ability to probe into a person's emotions
and they can often see into people and detect what
their motives are. This makes them great policemen
or interrogators. Virgos are very good at problem
solving, this is what they do best. They are
confronted with a problem, they will pick apart the
pieces and put it together in the proper order. They
are rational thinkers and are good at settling other
people's disputes and putting them on the right track
for reconciliation. Any position that requires the
above features, which is a very long list, is perfect for
the Virgo. They keep the world in order.

Virgo Temperament:

Before a Virgo plunges into anything, from a problem
to a vacation idea, they need to analyze all the facts
and know all the details before they plunge in and
make a decision. This makes them seem indecisive
and slow. Virgo's perception is their reality, more so
than other astrology signs. What they believe is what
will be, if they have a negative outlook on life,
things
will present themselves to be negative and they will
be very moody and isolated/detached. If they are
positive, the same events that occur will be held in a
positive light and they will be a pleasant, well
adjusted person. A Virgo mind is a very powerful
mind and they must have the proper attitude for their
life to be happy and successful. Virgo needs to get in
touch with their feelings, this is why they usually
seem cold or detached. They are very prone of living
in denial. They will say the feel okay or everything is
alright even when it's not. This is an easy way out, the
one thing that Virgo does not like to analyze is their
feelings so pretending everything is okay is a good
defense mechanism for not having to take a closer
look at their feelings. Virgo has an unpredictable and
sometimes unstable temperament.

Virgo Deep Inside:

They need to be organized in their mind, sometimes
all their energy is taken from organizing their mind
that they have a difficult time organizing their
surroundings. They easily look too deep into an issue
and over analyze what they percept. Virgo is
ambitious and strives to always know more and have
more. This is in their eternal quest to bring order to
chaos. Even if order is obtained from an outsiders'
point of view, Virgo will not be settled for they have a
very active mind that is always thinking and can never
be silenced. Virgos want to be of use, they need to be
important and essential to everyone in their lives and
in everything they do. Virgo's major life lesson is to
learn to trust in and have faith in the unknown. They
have to understand that things in life happen for a
reason that is not always known to them, they do not
have to always know everything. They need to learn
to calm down and not over-analyze a situation or
event. Deep inside, Virgo is very sensitive and they
need to be appreciated for all the things they do.
When is Virgo is offended or hurt, they may never
show it.

Virgo in a Nutshell:

Virgo exists in the mind, everything is inside. To the
world, Virgo presents a calm and collected exterior
but on the inside, nervous uncontrolled intensity in
the mind, trying to figure things out, how to improve
everything, analyzing and thinking. Virgo can tire
itself out without even moving! Virgo has a constant
drive to improve and perfect, this can lead to
extreme pickiness and finickiest. They are pure, their
motives are honest never malicious and they want to
accomplish something.


Virgo Love, Sex and Relationships

What it's like to date a Virgo Woman:

A Virgo woman is earthly and she may seem cold and
detached, but underneath the timid, reserved surface
lies the real woman, a strong, passionate woman
with a great capacity for strong devoted love. She will
play hard to get, she is hard to get for she is worried
about exposing her emotional vulnerabilities and
getting hurt. She requires patience and you will have
to court her and work hard to impress her. Once she
is in love, it is for the long term. She will be devoted,
loyal and make you very happy and even put a little
order in your life. Virgo woman is conservative and
old fashioned, a typical woman who is perfect for the
man who loves a challenge and likes to take a
relationship slow.

What it's like to date a Virgo Man:

The Virgo man has a cool exterior with a sensitive
interior. He has tremendous respect for a woman
and will treat her like and equal. He likes woman who
stir his emotions because he is reluctant to express
his own emotions, which he tries and this often
causes conflict not just inside himself, but it spills out
into the relationship. This man takes patience and
understanding. He will not get extremely close so do
not try to enter his psyche and become closely
entangled, this will make him feel threatened. He
needs a classy woman who is not impulsive or
unconventional. He leads a predictable life and a
predictable woman will make him feel safe. He is
perfect for the down to earth, conventional woman.
He won't be romantic and sweep you off your feet,
but he will be by your side and be very loyal. This
man's sensuality comes out with time. For the
woman who wants a stable, solid relationship with a
visible, smooth sailing future is perfect for the Virgo
man.

How To Attract Virgo:

Virgos need intellectual stimulation. Impress them
with facts and details. Always try to come to
conclusions when having a conversation, they do
not
like topics that go nowhere, they like conversations to
come to a close or consensus, even if you agree to
disagree. They are very conventional people so do
not do anything spontaneous or force them to make
a hasty decision, they take their time and think
intensely in their mind. They are not slow, their brain
is working evaluating everything. Do not attempt to
probe inside their mind because their emotions are
pretty much closed off until the relationship is solid,
and they will decide when that time will be. Virgos
are natural worriers, do not let this get to you. Do not
give them cause to worry because this makes them
get wound up like a spring. Let Virgo take the lead,
they like to be in control of what is happening. Keep
the date tasteful and do not be vulgar, they like calm
and classy surroundings and people.

Virgo Erogenous Zone:

The stomach area is very sensitive to Virgo. Stroke it,
circle their belly button with your finger, give them a
light belly massage. This makes them feel warn and
will help open them up a little bit. Be gentle, no
sudden moves or vicious acts like biting or slapping,
this will startle them and cause them to retreat.

Sex With Virgo:

As time progresses, sex with Virgo becomes more
and more sensual. These are not the type of people
who will engage in a one night stand, they are too
reserved and prudish for that. Expect sex to be direct
and straightforward, no fancy moves, places or
games. Virgo is not a highly sexed zodiac sign and
does not place much importance on it, if anything
they consider sex to be gross and dirty. Once a
relationship is solid, Virgo is willing to experiment a
little bit with techniques and pre-intimacy but like
everything else involving a Virgo, it takes time to
develop once all the advantages and disadvantages
have been thoroughly weighed out.

That definition of astrology was from a dictionary. Check it out yourself.

Please don't go there. Darwin's theory is the bedrock of biological, anthropological and paleontological science. Proven by numerous fossil and DNA evidence.

Economic theories are social sciences.

Acupuncture is alternative medicine, proven by scientific research to alleviate noninflammatory pains.

Astrology is baseless myth.

Oga, come back when you are ready to define a 'scientific basis'. Everything else you are writing is just one assertion after the other. Totally worthless to me.

Astrology101:
It determines your personality,your natural behaviour including your "sexual behaviour",...


And as regards checking where Mars is on the chart,I don't seem to get that. Are you implying horoscope readings? I mean when Mars like every other planets orbit into our signs?
Mars is the planet that rules sexuality and sexual energy, and
governs weapons, accidents and surgery (the last
two illustrating the yin and yang nature of this
planet).

You see, you're contradicting yourself. First you say the Sun determines your sexual behaviour then you say Mars is the planet that rules sexuality. It should be one or the other.

You want me to give you a Science lecture on an internet forum? Lol

Have you ever heard of the Scientific Method? Anything that can be said to have a "scientific basis" must have passed through this process.

Astrology is a PSEUDOSCIENCE. Check your dictionary for the meaning of that word.

Palm reading, voodoo, fortune telling, astrology- all in the same bracket.

Actually no! All I want is for you to tell me what you mean by a scientific basis.

Yes I've heard of the scientific method. It goes like this, according to one website:
The steps of the scientific method are to:
Ask a Question
Do Background Research
Construct a Hypothesis
Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment
Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion
Communicate Your Results

Now, please, How was the Theory of Evolution tested by ' Doing an experiment'?

What experiment did Ricardo's theory of Profits undergo before it was accepted by you as scientific?

When an hypothesis is constructed how does that happen?

Astrology is a PSEUDOSCIENCE. Check your dictionary for the meaning of that word.

Yet again you are just making an assertion without any argument to back it up. Very unscientific.

Asking me to explain how Darwin's theory is Scientific exposes the height of your ignorance.

If you want to learn about stars or celestial bodies, I suggest you begin courses in astronomy or cosmology. Real science.

Perhaps I am ignorant. No wahala. I accept. What are explanations for? Sebi it is to enlighten the ignorant. So here I am, an ignorant person, please enlighten me with an explanation of why Darwin's theory of Evolution is scientific. It is a simple request and I am here to learn.

You can find a detailed explanation of that in any biology textbook. But let's pretend you don't have access to that.

Are you copy and pasting? There is a copy and paste feel to your response.

You are mixing it up,sir... You are not getting it. Astrology is a wild subject so you have to keep on learning more,so I'm gonna expatriate a little. Let start from here; what does a planet means in astrology and what is its usefulness? You might be thinking that what is a planet? Does it has any usefulness at all? Well,the truth is that without planets,there would be nothing like sun signs and probably astrology. So what is a planet and what is its usefulness? A planet in astrological terms is the one that influences the characteristics of a sun sign. We have 9 major planets namely Jupiter,Mars,Earth,Mercury,Venus,Pluto,Neptune,Uranus,Saturn. Each planet is attached to a sign or two. Like I said earlier, a planet influences it sign with its characteristics. For example, Mars is a red hot planet with an aggressive,action-driven,sexual characteristics and it rules Aries sign and partially scorpio sign and that explains why Aries natives are action-driven,aggressive and sexually active due to mars characteristics. Uranus characteristics includes instability,unpredictability,innovations of new ideas and it rules the Aquarius sign and that explains why Aquarians are unstable and unprediactable and they are the innovators of the zodiac sign. Every sign is influenced only by its ruling planets except once in a while when one or more planets enters or orbits into the sign. So back to your post, because mars is considered a sexual planet doesn't mean it determines the sexual behaviour of the other signs. So sir,like I said earlier, Astrology is a very wild subject,we have to keep on learning it, so I would be glad if you further check other astrological guides to confirm what I said. I repeat,Mars doesn't determine the sexual behaviour of sun signs,it can only determine the sexual behaviour of its ruling signs which are Aries and Scorpio. Hope you get it now?
