ARIES -- The Ram - ( March 21 - April 19 )
Ruled by Mars.
Aries rules the Head, particularly the Eyes and the Nose
Aries is a Fire sign, impulsive and energetic. Aries is the first Sign of the Zodiac, is very like a newborn baby - unsubtle, demanding and frequently loud! The comparison is not ment to be a cruel one. In the same way that an infant is a bundle of raw, unshaped energies, Aries is a Sign of great simplicity.

The Aries Personality: Completely Self-Centered. Will take it for granted that everyone else will gratify and attend to his needs. Has an inflated sense of self-worth. Aries is fresh and direct, and completely guidless. Aries is an exceedingly assertive Sign. He is a leader, a go-getter and Impatience is his middle name. There isn't a malicious bone in his body. He is quick to anger, and even quicker to forget. Aries is honest, direct, open, and loyal. Aries is a natural pioneer, a loner, a maverick who has to carve his own way through life.

Arian's are typically full of creative energy, enthusiasm, and a great inner drive to prove themselves. They express themselves through action and are constantly seeking experiences that give them the opportunity to prove they are the best.

There is little timidity in people under this sign - like the Ram, Arians are confident doers who often forge ahead confidently, regardless of the consequences. This impulsiveness can sometimes lead to problems when they leap before they look. They are not afraid to take risks or to gamble to have their way. If they can temper their impulsive drives, Arians can accomplish much and be successful leaders. They constantly seek to be the best at whatever they do and would rather have fame and fortune than material wealth.

As friends Arians are high-spirited and generous, though sometimes they must control their competitive impulses and how they affect those around them. They must learn to temper their aggressiveness and use reason and diplomacy when dealing with others.

Arians crave independence and often seek positions of authority. Optimism runs through their veins and it is hard to discourage them from tasks they have begun (However, they are notorious for not finishing what they start). Their high-spirits are very contagious and are never daunted by fear of failure.

Cancer

CANCER -- The Crab - ( June 22 - July 22 )
Ruled by the Moon.
Cancer rules the Breasts and the Stomach.
Cancer is a Water sign, supportive and emotional.

Cancer the Fourth Sign of the Zodiac is often dismissed as moody, shy, and weepy. But is in fact a force to be reckoned with. Cancer should not be underestimated. Her shyness is not timidity but a cloak for her feelings; a protection against emotional exposure. She has a soft heart and excessive sensitivity, for Cancer is the most empathetic Sign of them all. Highly imaginative, Cancer is often surprisingly creative and artistic. She may also be gifted with the happy knack of making money, and even better at hanging on to it.

In Love Cancer may mask her feelings, fearing rejection, and afraid to trust. She loves to be cherished and comforted, and nobody cuddles like a Cancer.

Cancer is the sign of emotional sensitivity and sympathy. This sign, more than any other, is associated with domestic security and homemaking. Cancers are known for being very complex and often difficult to understand due to their ever changing mood swings. One minute they can be cranky and combative and the next they may seem the sweetest and most caring individuals.

Cancers have a highly developed instinct for self-defense that protects them from their inner vulnerability and shyness. Like a Crab's shell, their personalities often project a tough exterior within which they can retreat to. When hurt, Cancers often react by withdrawing and sulking, a tactic that they have refined to perfection. Cancers can be extremely stubborn and child-like, and do not usually give in until they get their way.

But underneath lies a softer side, a gentle, sensitive and emotional interior. Cancer's are by nature caring and protective. Their maternal instincts lead them to form life-long bonds and not just with family members, but anyone they come to care about deeply. Their main drive in life is to establish domestic security for themselves and for those around them. Cancers desire wealth only as a means to achieve this stability and to have money for a rainy day. They are very fond of the past and are very aware of their family lineage.

Their great sensitivity makes Cancers almost impossible to deceive. Also, they have their own way of doing things. Like a Crab's walk, their direction is often sideways and ambiguous, but they almost certainly reach their goals. If they can learn to temper their moodiness, Cancers can channel their great energies into positive directions. If one can learn to approach them, they can be loyal and devoted allies at work or at play.

Aquarius
AQUARIUS -- The Water Bearer - ( Jan 20 - Feb 18 )
Ruled by: Uranus (co-ruled by Saturn).
Aquarius is an Air sign, independent and unorthodox.
Aquarius rules the Ankles, the Circulatory and the Nervous Systems. Aquarius is the Eleventh Sign of the Zodiac. Aquarius is concerned with humanity, brotherhood, and the masses. Aquarius is the Sign of the people. Aquarius is a detached, impartial Sign, with little emotional appreciation. He will support the underdog. Aquarius always maintains a strictly impersonal and clinically objective viewpoint on life. Freedom is important to him, particularly freedom of thought.

Aquarius works well in the scientific and electronic media. Technology holds no fears for him. Aquarius likes nothing better than to be involved with a group of like-minded people. Aquarius is the person who prints and distributes the leaflets; he is the one who spreads the word and broadcasts the message.

Aquarians are the born eccentrics of the zodiac. Born under the influence of the planet of change, Uranus, Aquarians live in the future. They are intellectually independent and tend to have little patience with those who either wish to make them conform, or simply don't understand their radical ideas. Aquarians frequently argue for the sake of intellectual exercise, though if they have an opinion, they will defend it staunchly to the point where they will simply ignore the opposing arguments.

This is not to say Aquarians are anti-social. Quite the opposite. Aquarians hold brotherhood and fraternity nearly as important as intellectual ideas, and constantly crave the stimulation of people. They are humanitarians and their thoughts constantly delve into the welfare of mankind. They are dreamers and idealists and often come up with schemes to save the world. All of this dreaming takes its toll, though, and many an Aquarian has known the sting of disillusionment with the real world.

Aquarians tend to spend so much time in the clouds that often they are perceived as aloof and detached. They would rather dream up grand solutions to the problems of mankind that to involve themselves in the boring details. Their great weakness is their tendency to find faults in others, while taking for granted their own shortcomings. Their calmness is also deceptive, concealing great bouts of mental anxiety.

When down to earth, however, Aquarians are amongst the kindest people in the zodiac. They are easygoing, reasonable, and never boring. So long as they are given the freedom to be themselves, they can be the most entertaining and loyal companions.
