Their sign animal is true, because sometimes they come out of their shell and fight or they can introvert to their shell and hide at the depths of the ocean. The reason why they have their shell is to protect their soft and easily hurt inside. They have a deep psyche and intuitive mind that is hidden from the world. Cancer's need to be needed because they are complex, fragile, unpredictable  and temperamental  When they receive support the offer a tremendous amount back. On the other hand when they are hurt, they tend to sulk and not confront the other person. Not only are they possesive about materials, but with people as well.

The Most Powerful Sign

Scorpio

October 24-November 21

Element: Water

Ruling Planets: Pluto

Symbol: The Scorpion

Stone: Topaz

I decided to skip ahead to an earlier month because I am a Scorpio. Personally, I think I'm a Scorpio through and through...

Personality: This is an extreme and intense sign. On the surface they are cool, calm and collected but underneath that is power, strength, and intense passion. Don't be surprised if you notice a scorpio ask a lot of questions and survey the situation a lot. For these people have penetrative minds. Scorpios read into peoples intentions and personalities. They know when people are playing games with them. If you can treat a scorpio with respect, loyalty, and generosity, they will return it. Be careful, they are secretive and mysterious. They are known for being too controlling and too ambitious but only because they need control to make them feel safe.

Relationship with a Male: He is unlike any other sign in the zodiac circle. Unlike most zodiac signs, the Scorpio man and woman are almost exactly alike except that instead of pronouncing a feminine force, they present a powerful masculine force. Deep inside, a Scorpio man feels lonely and unfulfilled, but will never let a woman know this. When hes alone with his partner, they should be sensitive and affectionate. But beware if you plan on leading on this man, he'll never forgive you if you do. Let him take the lead, because he won't ever let the partner take it because they are jealous and possessive. They are fascinating men though, it will never be a dull night! He is very moody and it changes often. If you can stand by his side, in time this will pass. Don't be upset with these emotions, for he doesn't even understand most of them. These men are great protects and will make you feel safe.

Relationship with a Female: This is an emotional, very demanding and demonstrative woman. She presents the right amount of challenges with the right amount of rewards. Don't be surprised if you see her flirting though, it's just in her nature. It may take a while to gain this woman's trust. Don't expect to take her heart easily. This woman will put her partner through mental test's to see if he's truly worth her time. Even though she is flirtatious and doesn't trust many, deep inside she longs for a committed relationship. Most people don't expect to get swept into her spell but naturally she is possessive. Her mysteriousness pulls them in. The passion and fun will make a lot of people not mind being possessed. 

Strengths: loyal, passionate, resourceful, , observant, dynamic

Weakness's: jealous, obsessive, suspicious, manipulative, unyielding

I can agree with being a Scorpio almost 100%! My jealousy is hidden and rarely people ever see it. I guess that is like being a Scorpio because I hide my true emotions but to some I let out all that passion. If I trust someone, they get my loyalty but it is very hard for me to care for them again once they break that trust. Sometimes I don't know if this is a bad or good thing but I've been told I'm manipulative. I know that in the job that I work in, I need that skill but otherwise I don't like to think I am. Independence is a huge one too. My whole entire life I've been told that I'm very independent. Rarely do I like to rely on other people. Also, the moodiness as well. My relationships with people can be rocky because I can be downright moody for no reason. I think that I fit everything from my good side to my bad side. That's totally me. I love being a Scorpio because we are a fierce and strong sign and I'm very proud to be a Scorpio! I even plan to get this tattoo....

The Twin Sign

Gemini

May 21- June 20

Element: Fire

Ruling Planets: Mars

Symbol: Ram

Stone: Diamond

Personality: These people are energetic and have many sides to them. You'll like their

cleverness and wit. They are intelligent and very adaptable to new people and places. Gemini's are involved and never let life just pass them by. This makes them seem really noisy sometimes. Out of any of the signs, they are the most social. They want to know everything and everyone. Even though they may talk a lot, everything they have to say is important. Lacking perseverance, they often get off topic. They come off as superficial, but that's just because they are so quick to make a judgement on something. Their mind is too busy to be concerned with the fine details. Routine and boredom are their biggest fears. They'd rather be naive than know the depressing truth, they don't want anything to damper their positive energy. 

Relationship with Males: Gemini's are full of life and enthusiastic. Their partner will need to keep up with all of the energy they have. Don't expect to keep him all to yourself. He won't let himself be tied down very easily. Most likely, you'll be a sidekick, not a partner. They are more about fling's and can be very persuasive. He is clever and witty so you'll probably be competing for this man. Be careful to fall in love, these men are the masters of seduction! But aren't likely to stick around for very long.

Relationship with Female: These women have a casual nature, so it might feel more like a friendship instead of a serious relationship. Partner's who don't like overly romantic relationships, this will be the perfect woman for you. Since she is the sign of the duality, she offers quite the challenge. This woman needs from her partner love and nurturer, but also needs stimulation and novelty. She is very demanding and if she feels as if she's not getting what she wants, she's off to the next journey in her life. Her wittiness may make some people feel bad because she tends to poke and prod at those who are slower than her. Make sure you're keeping up with her wit or else she'll leave you in the dust. Since she is picky she'll never waste her time on a dull man. Yes, these are jealous women! They rarely open up to anyone so if they open up don't hurt them. These women are a handful but so worth the effort and you'll always remember her. 

Strengths: energetic, clever, imaginative, witty, adaptable

Weakness's: superficial, impulsive, restless, devious, indecisive 

My Friend The Aquarius....

So some people are pretty skeptical to zodiac signs. They read it but don't believe that it matches their personality. Although it may vary from person to person, if you truly read into your sign and explore different sights you may find certain things to be true! You just need to read, read and read! If nothing applies to you at all, then I guess you're just a different person then. In my mind, and many others though, the stars don't lie to you. I believe that everything in this universe is connected. Everything here, is one. I have a clear example of someone who matches their zodiac sign very well...


My friend Emily and I have been friends for almost 3 years. Ever sense we've known each other we've discussed the zodiac signs and what they mean to us. Whenever we'd meet new boys we'd test the compatibility of their signs to ours. We've always had a lot of fun exploring the personalities of people we barely know. Emily is an Aquarius, the leader of the signs. When I first met her all I could think is this girl comes on strong! She's always got random crazy ideas that you'd never dream of. We used to get into fights sometimes because I lacked communication. Scorpio's are notorious for keeping things to themselves. Aquarius's need communication. I've also noticed that Emily is always trying to figure out and explore things she doesn't understand. Her opinions are one of a kind and completely her own. Sometimes she may come off strong, but that's because she is protective and cares for her friends. Aquarius's are adventurous people. This is also a similarity I see in her. During the summer Emily and I are traveling trails, driving to different cities, and always on a mission of fun. One thing I think really ties her to being a true Aquarius is her free bird like spirit. She will never let anyone hold her down or prevent her from spreading her wings. I've always admired that about her as well. Even though the Scorpio and Aquarius are completely different signs we get along very well.

Now do this yourself. If you don't believe your sign is like you... Take a look at a friend! Ask your friend for their birthday and find out if their sign is like them or not. If it's not true for you, it may be true for a friend. 

My friend the Aquarius(:

Pisces are very good at understanding people because they have an ability to delve into the psyche and see a persons motivations.

Zodiac's Leader

Aquarius

January 21- February 19

Element: Air

Ruling Planets: Uranus

Symbol: The Water Bearer

Stone: Ameythyst

Personality: Aquarius are visionaries. They follow their own dreams and deviate from the crowd. When they form opinions its very hard to change them because they're stubborn. Constantly they are looking for intellectual stimulation. Aquarius will learn both sides of the stories or opinions but form their own opinion as they formulate new ideas with their forward thinking. They know how to interact through observation. Aquarius don't like to judge and they live by "live and let live" policy. Adapting to knew situations can be easy for an Aquarius because they are masters of manipulation.  Conventional people better keep a watch out because they will pick on anyone who isn't as strong as them. It's just easy for them because they are so strong in their personality. Deep inside, Aquarius love all humans and would never intentionally hurt someone. It just comes off that way to more emotional types. 

Relationship with Male: You could be the most beautiful woman in the world but if you aren't intellectually stimulating then forget about it. He longs for love but it causes him internal trouble because of his inability to understand emotion. Be patient with him and don't hold it against him. Be aware that Aquarius males fall in love easily, but can fall out of love easily. Being understanding and having respect for yourself are 2 good ways to keep this man. His idea's are very eccentric, be ready for crazy ideas. He needs stimulation and a partner ready for adventure with him. Do not press him with demands or tie him down to too many obligations because this will cause him to run. If you meet his needs, he will remain faithful. You won't have to worry when he's out on his own. Never be jealous, and give him his space and all will be well.

Relationship with Female: These woman are the ultimate independent go-getters. Rarely does she get jealous or clingy and she is very unpredictable. When dating this girl woo her and court her. She's looking for a ladylike treatment. But know that if her mind is made up about her interest in you, it probably won't change. Aquarius females aren't one for showy displays of affection and she does not get emotionally involved so easily. Communication, respect, and treating her as an equal will help this relationship blossom. Once you two form a close bond, she can become a loyal and kind hearted person. Although she may seem always detached its only because she is afraid of losing her identity in a relationship. Being jealous will be a sure cause for her to run. She will never be tied down because she is a free bird. Give her space and let her do her independent thing. If you do all that she needs she will be faithful. An Aquarius woman is for the man who needs challenge and adventure.

Relationship with a Male: They are all about short lived and exciting encounters. Often they are eager to try new things. And often, they want a challenge. For example, playing hard to get.

All About Zodiac Signs

First and foremost, we need to answer the question, "What is a zodiac sign?" In both astrology and historical astronomy the zodiac is a circle of twelve 30 degree that are centered upon the ecliptic; the apparent path of the sun across the atmosphere over the year. Each sign has their own unique personality and traits to them. 

Another question people ask is who started this thing called the zodiac? It is said that the Babylonian's started the zodiac. The word zodiac derives from Latin, which in turn comes from Greek. It means "circle of animals."
