Personality Traits for the Twelve Signs
| Aries
 | Positive:
Assertive
Independent
Enthusiastic
Honest
Energetic | Aries is a
cardinal fire sign ruled by the planet Mars, the planet of action
and aggression. Aries is the pioneer of the zodiac. Aries are
independent, aggressive, impulsive, head
strong, alert, impatient, argumentative, very active and very
physical. Aries likes to be at the head of things. Their ambition is
to be number one. You have masses of
energy and courage and will rush in where angels fear to tread, for
the Arian ego can be rather overbearing. Aries rules the head. Undue optimism, or
impatience and desire for self-aggrandisement can result in wasted
effort or even severe setbacks and disappointment. | | | Negative:
Self-Centred
Augmentative
Domineering
Impatient
Wilful | |
Symbol: The Ram
Lucky Day: Tuesday
Lucky Number: 9
Element: Fire
Modality: Cardinal
Ruling Planet: Mars, Pluto
Part of Body: Head, skull sinuses, jaws
Stones: Bloodstone, ochre, diamond, ruby
Keywords: Self, ego, imitative, action, courageous,
pioneering, adventurous, freedom-loving, independent.
Business Types: Exploration, design, engineering, athletics. | They accomplish many things simply because of their restless energy.
They need to learn how to make constructive use of their energetic
efforts. The typical Aries urge is to take on more than can be done
reasonably well. Though others may find it difficult to keep pace
with an Aries, they are attracted to their animation and spirited
personality. Arians are great organisers, full of flair and
originality, although usually lacking discipline and the capacity
for prolonged effort (minions must be found to do the boring work!).
You are intuitive and articulate, with the capacity to inspire
others, especially in projects which have a clear outcome and do not
require a long lead-time. | |
| Taurus
 | Positive:
Stable
Affectionate
Generous
Methodical
Sensuous | Taurus is a fixed
earth sign ruled by the planet Venus, the planet of love and beauty.
Taurus is practical, down to earth, hard working, stubborn,
sensual, very set in their ways. They have an appreciation for the finer
things in life and are willing to work to get them. A lover of music
and the arts. They are gifted
with good common sense where money is concerned. Slow to anger but when angered, its best to wait until
they cool down. Taurus rules the throat, giving a powerful, often
beautiful voice. The influence of Venus opens up a world of musical
talent and appreciation, so Taureans are good singers and musicians,
or at least, love music and can be a force on the business side of
music. | | | Negative:
Stubborn
Self-Indulgent
Possessive
Passive

Symbol: The Bull
Lucky Day: Friday
Lucky Number: 4
Element: Earth
Modality: Fixed
Ruling Planet: Venus
Part of Body: Neck, throat, tonsils, thyroid gland
Stones: Emerald, sapphire, diamond
Keywords: Possessions, practicality, values, stability,
persistent, sensual.
Business Types: Banking, accounting, real estate,
architecture, fine art. | Taureans stubbornly cling to their own ideas and habits and may fail
to take advantage of new ideas or situations, because they cannot
see their practical use. They have to understand that while tenacity
and a stable temperament yield reward in many endeavours, tolerance
and flexibility are the best assets when it comes to personal
relationships. You also like to potter around the garden, and
delight in other outdoor activities: picnics, hikes, trips to
botanical gardens or the zoo. You tend to be rather subdued, but you
have a fine sense of humour, and enjoy your social life. Health
issues are often focused on problems to do with the throat and neck. | |
| Gemini
 | Positive:
Versatile
Stimulating
Sociable
Quick-Witted
Curious | Gemini is a mutable
air sign ruled by the planet Mercury, the planet of intellect and
communication. Gemini is the sign of logic and reason. They are
versatile, witty, have a quick response, and have multiple
interests. This is the sign of writers, teachers, lecturers and
broadcasters. Where you find Gemini in a chart is where you find
flexibility towards that area of life. Gemini is the sign of The
Twins. - There are two of everything. You really have little faith
in yourself, which you mask with ironic wit or sarcasm, but in truth
you can use your flexible mind to better yourself in a surprising
number of ways. You spend more time talking than eating, so you are
able to stay fairly slim. | | | Negative:
Restless
Fickle
Flippant
Inconsistent
Shallow | |
Symbol: The Twins
Lucky Day: Wednesday
Lucky Number: 9
Element: Air
Modality: Mutable
Ruling Planet: Mercury
Part of Body: lungs, bronchial system, nervous system, arms,
hands
Stones: Beryl, garnet, topaz, aquamarine, agate
Keywords: Communication, thought, ideas, logical,
spontaneous, sharp, modern.
Business Types: Broadcasting, journalism, travel, tourism,
communications, education. | Using
their communicative skills, Gemini's adapt to any situation they
encounter. However, they must learn to speak with candour instead of
simply repeating what others want to hear. Gemini's have clever
tongues and develop an amazing ability to obscure the facts with
stimulating and imaginative talk. You love zooming around,
running right left and centre. As a source of information you are
unparalleled and you love to keep in touch with your friends,
neighbours and indeed anyone who is on your wavelength. Gemini
talents include design, interior decoration, arts and crafts, magic
and illusion, and music. You enjoy agile sports: gymnastics,
bicycling, swimming, and so on. Favourites are tennis, racquetball
and similar games involving a partner. | |
| Cancer
 |
Positive:
Protective
Imaginative
Caring
Intuitive
Nostalgic | Cancer is a cardinal
water sign ruled by the Moon. Cancer is the most sensitive sign of
the zodiac. They are psychic, empathic, and extremely sentimental.
With a strong attachment to family, ancestry and tradition, there is
a strong need for roots. Cancers need a place to come home to. Known
as the nest builder of the zodiac. Affected by the changing Moon,
this can cause Cancers to be extremely moody. Being at the mercy of
their moods makes it difficult for them to differentiate what they
feel from what they think. Can be sympathy seekers. The emblem for
Cancer is the Crab, a creature with a very hard shell which protects
a soft interior. The crab walks sideways, which is how the Cancerian
skirts around a problem until forced to take it on with gritty
determination and a creative flair. The crab's large claws hang on
to its possessions for dear life, just as the Cancerian collects
things to beautify the environment and bravely defends the home
turf. | | |
Negative:
Touchy
Possessive
Devious
Manipulative
Tenacious | |
Symbol: The Crab
Lucky Day: Monday
Lucky Number: 7
Element: Water
Modality: Cardinal
Ruling Planet: Moon
Part of Body:
Stones: Crystal, moonstone
Keywords: Mother, home, sensitivity, nurturance,
protectiveness.
Business Types: Staples, domestic goods, hospitality, real
estate. | Cancerians get things done through the power of their emotional
commitment. Not only do they aggressively work to accomplish the
goals inspired by their own feelings, they also know how to appeal
to the emotions of others. By making other people feel like family
members, Cancerians effectively motivate others to get things done.
They have to learn how to reach an emotional balance since they tend
to be overly sensitive and moody. Cancer is also good with money and
generally takes a long-term view. The main thing to remember is not
to let the powerful, turbulent emotions of the moment crowd out your
normally rational judgement. Your intuitions are reliable and should
be trusted; you may even have natural psychic powers, which may be
developed, given the right circumstances. | |
| Leo
 | Positive:
Self-Assured
Sincere
Optimistic
Constant
Generous | Leo is a fixed fire
sign ruled by the Sun. Leo is the most vital sign of the zodiac.
They have strong egos, a tremendous amount of energy and a flair for
the dramatic. Leos are romantic, idealistic and require attention,
luxury, flattery and home comforts. Their egos must be stroked. Usually
involved in theatre groups, acting, teaching and sports. Endowed
with great confidence and courage. Since Leo is a fixed sign, it is
very hard for them to make changes in their lives. Glamorous Leo
enjoys a thorough love of life and all its pleasures. As the
Sun bestows light and life without favour, the benefactor of every
living thing on this earth, so you, genial host and natural
entertainer, get inordinate pleasure from helping others enjoy life
as much as you do. | | | Negative:
Arrogant
Pompous
Intolerant
Domineering
Sloppy | |
Symbol: The Lion
Lucky Day: Sunday
Lucky Number: 9
Element: Fire
Modality: Fixed
Ruling Planet: Sun
Part of Body: heart, upper back, spinal column
Stones: Ruby, peridot, onyx
Keywords: Power, authority, generosity, expansiveness,
leadership.
Business Types: The "CEO", leader, president, theatre,
sports. | Leos
stubbornly cling to their pride. They do not readily alter their
opinions or behaviour at the request of others. Their stubborn
nature makes it hard for them to accept that there is no virtue in
giving what they want to give, rather virtue means giving what may
be wanted or needed. Neither is there reward in giving misguided
loyalty to those who are not worthy of it, which is another
possibility with a Leo Sun sign. Determined Leo, a fixed sign,
can be rather stubborn and resistant to imposed changes. In many
ways this is a plus, for it gives you the stamina to accomplish
things in life, due to your tenacity. You can stick with projects
when other more easily distracted souls lose concentration or
interest. This stubbornness, which you prefer to think of as
consistency and determination, is, however, dictated more often than
not by your ego. | |
| Virgo
 | Positive:
Efficient
Modest
Dependable
Conscientious
Precise | Virgo is a mutable
earth sign ruled by the planet Mercury, the messenger. Virgo is
analytical, critical, passive, flexible, adaptable, practical and
hard to please. They are clean, methodical, discriminate, down to
earth and always seeking perfection. Has the tendency to index,
sort, assimilate, categorize and pigeon- hole people, places and
things. Interested in health, hygiene and medicine. Likes to deal in
facts and take care of details. Best workers in the zodiac. Although
you often have altruistic motives in helping others, you do have a
tendency to act the martyr when your offerings are ignored.
It is not unheard of for you to use guilt as a weapon. Helping
others to improve is one thing, but pushing them toward
goals of perfection they cannot hope to accomplish is quite
destructive, as well as impossible. | | | Negative:
Fussy
Pedantic
Critical
Puritanical
Narrow-Minded | |
Symbol: The Virgin
Lucky Day: Wednesday
Lucky Number: 3
Element: Earth
Modality: Mutable
Ruling Planet: Mercury
Part of Body: pancreas, small intestine, spleen, liver
Stones: Sardonyx, carnalian
Keywords: Critical, discerning, methodical, modest,
service-oriented, cultured, discerning.
Business Types: Bio-tech, medicine, pharmaceuticals, farming,
accounting, any work that serves others and involves exacting
detail. | Virgos
adapt to different people and situations by finding ways to make
themselves useful. To hide their vulnerability, they focus attention
on what they're doing rather than who they are. To deflect attention
away from themselves, Virgos will also focus on other people by
praising their talents and virtues, or by criticizing faulty
behaviour or personal imperfection. A critical eye for detail,
combined with your ceaseless pursuit of perfection, endows you with
an irresistible urge to improve everything and everyone (whether
they need it or not!). Service-oriented Virgo seeks to improve the
environment, by pursuing careers in health-related fields, or in
other structured areas such as teaching, labour relations, or
counselling. Intensely personal situations can be somewhat
inhibiting, but other circumstances can produce a very dynamic | |
| Libra
 | Positive:
Romantic
Congenial
Sociable
Charming
Diplomatic | Libra is a cardinal
air sign ruled by the planet Venus, the planet of love and beauty.
Libra is the sign of marriage and partnerships. They are generally,
intellectual, artistic, refined, diplomatic and indecisive. Since
Libra is the sign of balance, Librans have the ability to see both
sides of a situation, making them great mediators. (But also making
it hard for them to make up their minds.) They have an executive and
legal type mind. Many lawyers have planets in this sign. Libra is
never lonely. Emotional, physical, and psychological pleasure comes
to you from beauty in all its forms. Books, music, flowers, and
perfume are typical delights. If your environment is less than
pleasing, you can become unhappy without even realizing that your
surroundings may be responsible for your despondency. | | | Negative:
Insincere
Vain
Indolent
Frivolous
Indecisive | |
Symbol: The Scales
Lucky Day: Friday
Lucky Number: 9
Element: Air
Modality: Cardinal
Ruling Planet: Venus
Part of Body: lower back, kidneys, bladder
Stones: Blue Lace Agate, Chrysoprase, Lapis Lazuli,
Turquoise
Keywords: Harmony, beauty, balance, diplomacy, idealism,
justice
Business Types: The judge, police, fashion, art, luxuries,
precious metals, artists, diplomats | Librans accomplish things because they intellectually evaluate what
needs to be done, then they charm others into cooperating to achieve
the goal. By unselfishly sharing the success of accomplishment with
those who have assisted them, Librans nurture the cooperative
efforts of others. They have to learn how to deal with
confrontation. Their fear of hurting others and also of hostile
situations can keep them from reaching their goals. In spite of your
need to be liked, and reluctance to face confrontations, you are
surprisingly strong-willed. You set out to accomplish your chosen
goals and will find ways to succeed one way or another, usually by
using your wit and charm. | |
| Scorpio
 | Positive:
Imaginative
Subtle
Fearless
Loyal
Profound | Scorpio is a fixed
water sign ruled by the planet Pluto, the planet of transformation
and co-ruled by the planet Mars, planet of action and energy.
Scorpio is the mystery sign of the zodiac. Scorpio shows a deep
understanding of the mysteries of life and curiosity concerning
birth, death and re-birth. There is an interest in sex at an early
age. They take life seriously, have the tendency to dominate and
control others lives (allegedly for their own good). Scorpio can be
very secretive, they have a strong quiet reserve, with strong
survival instinct. Determined Scorpio can be rather stubborn and
resistant to imposed changes. In many ways this is a plus, for it
gives you the stamina to accomplish things in life, due to your
tenacity. On the surface you may seem easy-going, congenial, and
gregarious, but you are also extremely tenacious with a need to
manipulate and control your situations. | | | Negative:
Jealous
Suspicious
Secretive
Controlling
Resentful | |
Symbol: The Scorpion
Lucky Day: Tuesday
Lucky Number: 4
Element: Water
Modality: Fixed
Ruling Planet: Pluto
Part of Body: reproductive system, sex organs, large
intestine
Stones: Opal, topaz
Keywords: Sex, secrecy, investigation, rebirth, intensity,
determination, integrity, imagination.
Business Types: Law enforcement, religion, military, mental
health. | Scorpios stubbornly cling to emotional attachments. They rarely
forget or forgive emotional rejection. They have to learn that
jealousy and possessiveness are self-defeating. Re-channelling
negative feelings and experiences into constructive activity
benefits others, as well as themselves. No other sign has the
emotional strength of Scorpio. Emotions govern your first reactions
to every experience in life. Although instinctive emotions generate
the strongest motivations for your behaviour, you are not prone to
wearing your heart on your sleeve. You need to dominate
relationships and rarely display your true feelings, holding back
something of yourself, even at your most open and communicative
moments. Although you may not intentionally set out to be
mysterious, you manage to appear enigmatic anyway. You hate being
crossed or manipulated, and can react to such treatment with sarcasm
and vengefulness. | |
| Sagittarius
 | Positive:
Adventurous
Wise
Generous
Philosophical
Utopian | Sagittarius is a
mutable fire sign ruled by the planet Jupiter, the planet of
opportunity and expansion. Sagittarius is friendly enthusiastic,
optimistic, outgoing and philosophical. They have a keen interest in
foreign cultures, religion and travel. Independence and freedom are
important to them. Loves to talk, can be blunt. Most Sagittarians
have a problem with time due to tendency to procrastinate. You
readily adapt to change and home is where you hang your hat. This is
both a strength, because it is a survival mechanism, and a weakness
because it makes you vulnerable to the demands and influence of
others. Frank Sagittarius does not hesitate to give an honest
opinion, which can seem tactless at times - although it is rarely
your intention to be cruel. You have a ready wit and appreciate the
humour in even the grimmest situations. | | | Negative:
Tactless
Boastful
Unrealistic
Unreliable
Moralistic | |
Symbol: The Archer
Lucky Day: Thursday
Lucky Number: 7
Element: Fire
Modality: Mutable
Ruling Planet: Jupiter
Part of Body: Thighs, sciatic nerve
Stones: Topaz, citrine
Keywords: Freedom, travel, knowledge, learning, optimism,
broad-mindedness.
Business Types: The Internet, computers, science, technology,
public service, social work, some publishing | Restless energy and the need for personal independence keep a
Sagittarian moving in many directions. They become experts at
adapting to the culture or climate of their immediate environment.
Always ready to travel for business or pleasure (and sometimes
because of an overwhelming urge to escape) Sagittarians are all too
willing to break free of the confinements of responsibility and
work. Enthusiastic Sagittarius has a passion for sports. Physically
challenging endeavours of all kinds, including archery, jogging,
hang gliding, sailing, and fishing (especially for big game fish)
are favorite activities. One big challenge to overcome may be the
battle of the bulge, when your fondness for food, glorious food and
a good drop finally catches up with you. A natural gambler and
risk-taker, you usually come out on the winning side | |
| Capricorn
 | Positive:
Patient
Enterprising
Organised
Ambitious
Constructive | Capricorn is a
cardinal earth sign ruled by the planet Saturn, the planet of
responsibility, dependability, patience and karma. Capricorn is a
serious, practical, hardworking, down to earth sign. They have
patience, endurance, and are known to be the most ambitious sign of
the zodiac. They require prestige and recognition and gravitate
towards executive and managerial positions. Ambition and aspiration
are the key to the Capricorn personality. Capricorn is the number
one conformist of the zodiac. Survival instinct is strong. Your
sense of humour is generally impeccable, although you fail to see
the point of personal jokes at your expense. You hold grudges and
will take revenge for perceived slights. The ancient emblem of
Capricorn was the sea-goat, half goat and half fish. This symbolised
the death of the lower mind and the birth of the spiritual. | | | Negative:
Pessimistic
Conventional
Calculating
Dictatorial
Cold | |
Symbol: The Goat
Lucky Day: Saturday
Lucky Number: 8
Element: Earth
Modality: Cardinal
Ruling Planet: Saturn
Part of Body: Teeth, Knees
Stones: Onyx, jet, ruby, garnet
Keywords: Ambition, conservation, power, social status,
discipline, prudence.
Business Types: Global trade, civil service, music, building,
science. Leaders, CEOs, managers. | Capricorns are natural goal setters. They willingly handle many
tasks when it helps them get what they want. Many things are
accomplished, because Capricorns always strive to reach higher
goals. They need definitive guidelines. Rules and regulations
provide the structure they need to establish their own behavioural
patterns. They must learn, however, that the end never justifies the
means. Initiative and willingness to accept responsibilities
are keys to your success, but a false pride makes it hard for you to
admit when you are wrong, or to ask others for help. Though you
compete aggressively for what you want, you harbour an inner lack of
confidence which can make you defensive. Viewing insecurity and fear
as weakness, you attempt to hide such feelings, making it hard for
others to get close to you. | |
| Aquarius
| Positive:
Sociable
Communicative
Independent
Rational
Progressive | Aquarius is a fixed
air sign ruled by the planet Uranus, the planet of originality,
freedom and sudden change. Aquarians are the individualists of the
zodiac. They are independent, creative, original, inventive,
mentally alert and unpredictable. Noted for abstract thinking. Lover
of gadgets. Aquarius makes a better friend than mate. Most of you
are less than fabulous cooks, although you'll eat just about
anything! So far as sports are concerned, as long as you can
participate in such activities with a partner, or as part of a team,
you can get quite enthusiastic about it, so have little trouble
keeping physically fit. You do have a tendency to laziness, however,
so are reluctant to engage in any boring series of exercises on your
own. | | | Negative:
Wilful
Impractical
Erratic
Dogmatic
Cranky | |
Symbol: The Waterbearer
Lucky Day: Wednesday
Lucky Number: 7
Element: Air
Modality: Fixed
Ruling Planet: Uranus
Part of Body: Circulatory system, ankles, spinal cord
Stones: Blue Sapphire, black pearl, amethyst
Keywords: Unique, humanitarian, independent, idealistic,
inventive
Business Types: The Internet, computers, science, technology,
public service, social work, some publishing | Aquarians are born looking for ideologies to which they can
stubbornly cling. They refuse to budge whenever an issue involves
what they believe to be a matter of principle. As in the case of the
Aquarian Abraham Lincoln, society greatly benefits when these
principles are noble. Determined Aquarius, a fixed sign, can be
rather stubborn, offhand and resistant to imposed changes. You
accept the substantial alterations in life as a challenge, but are
quite averse to those small changes which can throw a spanner in the
works. When confronted with unreasonable authoritarian demands or
dogmatic principles to which you do not subscribe, you rebel. You
certainly resent being told what to do, although you can be quite
co-operative when properly approached. | |
| Pisces
| Positive:
Sensitive
Compassionate
Imaginative
Receptive
Self-Sacrificing | Pisces is a mutable
water sign ruled by the planet Neptune, the planet of inspiration,
imagination, idealism and compassion. Pisces is a very sensitive
sign, the emotions are strong and deep. Escapist tendencies make
Pisces vulnerable to addictions such as, alcohol, drugs and
cigarettes. They are lovers of music and gravitate to music as a
profession. Shy Pisceans would much rather impersonate someone else
than be themselves. No wonder so many of you are actors, artists,
writers, and dreamers. Elusive Neptune makes it hard to predict how
you will develop. Some of you are neat and well organized, while
others become slovenly and careless | | | Negative:
Escapist
Confused
Acquiescent
Slippery
Over-Emotional | |
Symbol: Two Fishes
Lucky Day: Friday
Lucky Number: 6
Element: Water
Modality: Mutable
Ruling Planet: Neptune, Jupiter
Part of Body: Lymph system, feet immune factors
Stones: Aquamarine, Hematite, jasper
Keywords: Secrecy, investigation, rebirth, impressionable,
sensitive, psychic, adaptable.
Business Types: Health care, public service, sea-fairing
businesses, water-related businesses, film making. | Pisceans adapt emotionally to their environment. Often painfully
shy, they are adept at imitating the mannerisms of other people in
order to hide their own personalities. A Piscean can too easily
become a victim by identifying with the personality and problems of
other people, because this severely restricts the development of
their own personality and talent. The two fishes in your
astrological sigil swim in either direction. Here is your choice:
focus, be strong and overcome the weaknesses in your sensitive
nature, or dissolve in vague longings and become the victim of your
own vulnerability. For the sake of your emotional equilibrium,
develop a private place of your own, or at least take a private time
for daily retreat and relaxation. | |
