Clues to your personality from palm-reading the heavens

Most horoscope columns are based on sun sign astrology, which is based only on one’s birth date. Genethliac astrology factors in a wealth of other information, including a person’s time and place of birth, the location of the sun, moon, planets, and some asteroids, and the path of the moon’s orbit around the earth.

Here’s a beginner’s guide to what your sign may reveal about you.

Aries: March 21 – April 19. The Ram. Aries represents birth, and it is the first sign of the zodiac. As the first zodiac, the ram is like a baby – very self-absorbed. And like a baby, Aries puts his or her needs first. The Ram is fearless, extremely honest and direct, and very gung ho. Arians often show a ferocious temper, but after the fight, they don’t hold a grudge. With all the energy they expend, you have to wonder when they relax. But they can be calm too. They find their soulmates in Sagittarius, Scorpio, and Cancer.

Taurus: April 20 – May 20. The Bull. Taurus is a rocky coast that’s been beaten by the elements for centuries. Those born under this sign are strong and stubborn with a quiet demeanor. Taureans are steady, speak sparingly, and possess an inner strength, but don’t like change. They are outstanding workers who are willing to take orders without resentment. Their hearts and pockets are open to a friend in distress, but they may have trouble expressing their own feelings. Cancer, Leo, and Capricorn will hit it off with them.Gemini: May 21 – June 20. The Twins. Being born under the sign of the Twins means you never know when you might switch your looks, house, jobs, or spouse on an impulse. Geminis can never get enough money, fame, or love. They live by their own rules and do what they want; they have little patience for indecisive people and can be very rude, selfish, and immature. The Gemini women has a hard time committing herself to one man at a time, and the Gemini man may shower a love interest with flowers, but he’s unlikely to reveal his innermost core. Still, Gemini will be drawn to Leo, Capricorn, and Aquarius.

Cancer: June 21 – July 22. The Crab. The Cancer person is full of laughter and loves a good joke. But at other times Cancer’s moods are blacker than the darkest cavern. Yet people born under this sign also are sweet and gentle and will find a way to rise above adversity when the moon changes. Cancerans are very sentimental about their roots and their family. They have vulnerable hearts and very sensitive feelings. In love, the Cancer person can be so dependant it can border on obsession. Virgo, Leo and Aquarius will be the most compatible.

Leo: July 23 – August 22. The Lion. Leo is the leader of the jungle, a dignified, stately presence, lying luxuriously in the sun for all to see. Leos have extremely strong personalities and can be very vain. But they also are very loveable, seldom waste energy in fruitless tasks, and are good organizers. The regal ways of the Sun sign make them great hosts or hostesses. Leos like the regal treatment and spend money freely, but they’ll also give money to almost anybody. They play hard, work hard, rest hard, and live hard. Leo will want to meet Pisces, Aries, and Gemini.

Virgo: August 23 – September 22. The Virgin. These perfectionists are dependable, industrious, practical, cool, and sincere. They are blessed with great curiosity and are very mentally alive, excelling in both the written and spoken word. The Virgo can endure and thrive on intense work longer than most others. They can also destroy relationships by being too critical, analytical, and irritable. But if you’re in a jam, the Virgo will gladly roll up his or her sleeves and jump in. Capricorn, Aries, and Pisces, are for Virgo.

Libra: September 23 – October 22. The Scales. Being the sign of the Scales, the Libra is a natural balancer. They’re excellent listeners, but they’ll talk your ear off. They are extremely intelligent, but extremely naive. They love people, but hate crowds. They’re gracious, caring, and calm, but when the weight of the scales change, they can be stubborn, annoying, and depressed. The Libran hates arguments, and makes an ideal mate. They will do anything to please. Gemini and Taurus stand the best chance of benefiting.

Scorpio: October 23 – November 21. The Scorpion. The most passionate people in the zodiac, Scorpios are nocturnal creatures. They have hypnotic intense eyes which make many people feel nervous. Scorpios have very strong emotions, but they are deeply hidden. They know what they are and what they’re not and nothing anyone says will change that. They can be sarcastic, stubborn, and even cruel to those that are close to them. It is extremely hard to get to know them. They must test everyone before they show their real selves. Scorpions are fascinated with death and religion. Scorpio will appreciate Cancer and Aquarius the best.

Sagittarius: November 22 – December 21. The Archer. When you start a new job, the first person to walk up to you with a smile, shake your hand and welcome toy aboard is a Sagittarius. Sagittarian mean well but are always putting a foot in their mouth. They make friend easily, are optimists, and refuse to take life seriously. But they can have violent tempers and are bad at keeping a secret. They have fantastic memories but can’t remember where they left their keys. Pisces, Cancer, and Leo will be most understanding.

Capricorn: December 22 – January 12. The Goat. Like the goat, the Capricorn looks and acts harmless but is tough as nails. Capricorns are steady, serious, and sensible, and never let obstacles or disappointments block the way to the top of the mountain. They are gentle and persuasive, and although they are sometimes labeled as snobbish, that’s really not true. The Capricorn person is safe to trust and confide in, and they make great providers. Leo, Aries, and Virgo are Capricorn’s favorites.

Aquarius: January 20 – February 18. The Water Bearer. Freedom-loving Aquarians are unpredictable and secretly delight in shocking others with their erratic behavior. They are natural rebels with a dreamy look in their eyes. The Aquarium will seek the security of crowds and then demand to be alone. When it comes to friends, they seek quantity, rather than quality. Trusting people isn’t natural for Aquarians, but they love to network. Sagittarius, Taurus, and Libra will be the most in sync with Aquarius.

Pisces: February 19 – March 20. The Fish. Like their namesake, fish people have to be in the same spot for too long. They are always swimming from one spot of light to another. Pisces people are the most spiritual of the signs; they are often mystical, impressionable, and intuitive. They are also creative, clever, and sarcastic, and hate to answer a direct question. Yet no sign is more sensitive to human suffering. They love to help. Pisces will find Virgo, Gemini, and Scorpio to their liking.
