Aries (March 21 to April 20)
Your mind has been quite troubled lately, but this month promises a period of emotional relief. Though solutions will not simply fall onto your lap, you need to take action in order to completely overcome your troubles. Start by counting all of your blessings, starting with the things you are grateful for. They will show you the way to resolution.
Taurus (April 21 to May 21)
You may have been feeling like you are missing out on something, or losing something that should be yours, but be assured that your situation will improve as this month progresses. Learn to pay more attention, and show more appreciation to what is around you. Slowly but surely, things that are worth keeping, along with the ones that are truly yours, will stay with you. Those that are not good for you will naturally fall away.
Gemini (May 22 to June 21)
While this month is a time for merry-making, be careful not to let yourself get carried away by lavishness or persuasions which will not do you any good in the long run. Be mindful of where your energies and efforts are spent, and stay sober when making decisions. Mistakes committed at this time will seriously strain relationships and create problems in the near future.
Cancer (June 22 to July 22)
Opportunities that you thought have been lost before are not truly lost - this month will bear more promising opportunities which you will easily be able to handle. However, make sure that any commitments made are carried out, in order to avoid regrets later about how you could have handled things. Be reminded that lost opportunities do not always come back and give you another chance.
Leo (July 23 to August 21)
Happiness abounds for you this month - there is simply no time and space for anxiety and fears. Your good energies will easily repel any negative ones directed at you, and your strong spirit will drive away unwanted people and circumstances. Enjoy your life, and always remain grateful for every blessing that is given to you - this attitude will multiply your happiness even more.
Virgo (August 22 to September 23)
A few things on your mind have been causing you to feel sad or burdened lately; however, there are more things this month which will win you over from this unhappy state. While your troubles may not completely disappear, you will be able to deal with them more cheerfully. With this in mind, focus on the things that will lift up your spirits and help you get through any trying times.
Libra (September 24 to October 23)
Think first before you speak; some issues which may arise during the month might make you feel overly emotional, causing you to want to point a finger at someone, or make false accusations and assumptions. If you speak or act without thinking, you might need to make apologies in order to reclaim your dignity. So try to hold back your words, and speak up only when you feel calm and clear-headed.
Scorpio (October 24 to November 22)
Sit back and relax. This is the perfect time for you to observe the balance between work and play. While you may not be physically working, your mind can still be preoccupied with it. Make sure that when you leave your work behind, you completely leave it behind. There is no point being physically present in a leisurely activity if your face shows that your mind is in a state of unrest because of work.
Sagittarius (November 23 to December 22)
Prepare yourself for pleasant things ahead - expect a lot of gains coming your way this month. If you are tired and weary, sit back and watch your efforts pay off successfully. Unexpected ease and pleasure await you. Be careful when making wishes, because what you wish for can easily come true right now. If you are experiencing any difficulty, there will be an unexpected shift of circumstances towards the better.
Capricorn (December 23 to January 20)
Do not let your fears hold you back. You might have some plans or great ideas in mind, but are afraid to proceed and take action. It is wise to be cautious, but never let your fears hold you back completely. If you spend too much time feeding your worries and fears, you are only increasing the chances of being unsuccessful with your plans. Be clear about your intentions, proceed with caution, and learn from your experience.
Aquarius (January 21 to February 19)
You might encounter some difficulty getting people to move according to your plan; but do not be too harsh on them. They want to be able to contribute and stick to agreements made, but they have their own difficulties to deal with. It would be good to cut others some slack right now. After all, these people still want to be able to do their best for you.
Pisces (February 20 to March 20)
Keep your eyes open this month - you are likely to encounter people with whom you can form valuable and long-lasting friendships with. Be open to possibilities and try to be more sociable. This will help invite the right kinds of people to your life. To ensure a healthy connection and relationship with them, pay attention to your role as their friend. They, in return, will help cultivate your love for life.

Improving Your Life With Astrology
About astrology Benjamin Franklin once wrote, "Astrology is one of the most ancient sciences, held in high esteem of old, by the wise and by the great." Since the beginning of humankind and through the ages, astrology has been used to help us understand the alignment of stars and planets. Archaeological findings from the earliest of civilizations indicate man was inspired by the stars, shaping beliefs around a primitive understanding of the constellations. Astrology has certainly been interwoven into religion, science, psychology and even the arts. The study of astrology has been mastered by cultures from the Greeks to the Chinese and continues to be the science many rely upon for helping understand their life course.
In a sense, astrology can be considered a language that, to be used, must be learned. It can be a great means of communication among people and is widely used as a method for better understanding human conditions. It has been said, "Astrology is a kind of spiritual language to talk about what we already know deep down." Used as a tool to understand how people can better negotiate life, love, and the universe, astrological readings have long been relied upon by all of humankind. As Plato once wrote, "Perhaps there is a pattern set up in the heavens for one who desires to see it and having seen it, to find one in himself."
Well beyond newspaper sun sign horoscopes, there are dedicated astrologists who study birth charts, life path charts, birthday forecasts, and even love compatibility charts. Understanding your own birth chart can reveal mental and emotional aspects of your personality as well as areas where you struggle or excel. The natal report can give great insight into the nuances of your character. Exploring your own life path chart can give you a better understanding of your spiritual and psychological tendencies. When you have a life path report written, you get a better sense of how you relate to the world around you and how to get the most from your life. It can be said that having accurate astrological readings at your fingertips is a positive and reassuring way to negotiate through life.
The availability of astrological interpretations is abundant; however, finding reputable, quality astrologers can be hard. Whether you are looking for a physic, medium or someone to explain your zodiac sign, it can be a difficult search. Reading a horoscope or a prediction of one's future can be ominous if the information is not correct. Understanding love and compatibility with another person can be very confusing if the reading is not comprehensively explained. No doubt, finding a premium service with highly trained and skilled astrologers should be the first course of action when seeking astrology related questions.
Fortunately, there are some great websites dedicated to sharing the wonderful world of astrology. Websites dedicated to astrology services can help with your life, relationships, health, and career. Begin searching for the site that will give you analytical astrological readings from highly skilled professional astrologers. The stars will shine brightly when you begin to gaze upon them!

Chinese Astrology Symbols - Their Meaning Unveiled
For many centuries the people of China have relied on ancient Chinese astrology symbols to represent their horoscopes.
Chinese astrology symbols are astrological signs of 12 animals that represent a twelve year cycle that is aligned with the sun and the moon. Each one of them was carefully selected and used to represent human life and culture.
The Chinese astrology symbols
The twelve symbols of Chinese astrology were carefully chosen and represent the first twelve animals that won the race that was to be set up by ancient gods. The twelve were the ones deemed to be the best.
Rat: This symbol is said to be the same as many of the ancient Chinese emperors. People who share this symbol are said to be practical and dominant minded. You may want to look out for the rat since they can be extremely cruel and of dangerous nature.
Ox: These people are supposed to be a very sincere person who wears their heart on their sleeve.
Tiger: One of the best friends that you can have is anyone who shares this symbol. They fight hard to maintain lasting friendships.
Rabbit: People holding political office tends to be rabbit symbols. They are stubborn and do not take well to any sort of change.
Dragon: This is a strong symbol in the culture of China. The symbol is generally held by someone who has a lot of strength and intelligence.
Snake: Known for being wise, the snake symbol represents someone who cares a lot about physical appearance. They adapt well to change and love new things.
Horse: They are brave in nature, but also tend to let their defensiveness get in their way. These people are very sensitive.
Sheep: These artistic creatures tend to care about the world around them and are easily hurt by any sort of negativity.
Monkey: This is the most scientific of all the symbols. They have to be in full control of what's going on around them and tend to be a good friend.
Rooster: These people are not happy unless they can be at the center of everyone's attention.
Dog: You will never be able to find a more loyal friend than the dog. Everyone is drawn to their enigmatic personality.
Pig: Most comfortable in rural areas, they are kind hearted and love to connect with nature.
The other symbols on the Chinese astrological chart are the Yin and Yang which help you create harmony in your life. The chart uses the natural elements of nature to divide the cycle. By using these symbols you will be able to find out what the future holds for you.

Introduction Into the Astrological Signs of the Zodiac
The Energy Cycle of Life
Astrological signs are a beautiful way to represent the changing, cyclical patterns of energy that we all feel as we go through life. Each segment of our life-whether it's a day, a week, a month, or a year-and our life as a whole, has a beginning, a middle, and an end.
These time periods have very different energy qualities. At 7:00 a.m. we feel full of energy and ready to begin our day. By 10:00 p.m. we look forward to restful sleep to recharge our energy. Monday feels very different from Wednesday and Sunday, doesn't it? In spring we come out of our hibernation and feel infused with energy. By November in the Northern Hemisphere we look forward to curling up by the fire with a hot cup of tea and a good book as we enter a slower, more contemplative period.
Each phase of the life cycle has its own qualities that can be enhanced by understanding the energy pattern of that period. The astrological signs will teach you how to maximize your potential throughout the year and in each phase of your life.
The Twelve Astrological Signs
There are 12 astrological signs, named for constellations. On a horoscope they are arranged around the outer ring of the chart. The planets are on the turning zodiac ring inside the ring of signs. As that ring turns, the planets move through each of the astrological signs in the course of one year. The 12 signs are:
1. Aries
2. Taurus
3. Gemini
4. Cancer
5. Leo
6. Virgo
7. Libra
8. Scorpio
9. Sagittarius
10. Capricorn
11. Aquarius
12. Pisces
The Signs as the Theater of Life
As you look up at the sky at night, you can imagine the planets as actors on a stage. In a sense, the astrological signs are the "stage" where the planets act out their roles. Each stage has its own particular energy pattern that influences the planets as actors. As a planet enters a sign, it comes under the influence of the energy pattern of that sign.
So we might say that "Mars is in Leo now," which means that Mars is now being influenced by the energy pattern of the sign of Leo. When Mars has finished its role in Leo it will move on to its next stage, Virgo, where things will be quite different for Mars! So Mars always retains its own qualities, but those are modified according to the sign that Mars is in.
The Character & Energy Patterns of the Signs
The signs get their characteristics from where they fall in the yearly cycle of one revolution of the zodiac, which represents one revolution of the Earth around the Sun. During that year, all life on Earth goes through one cycle of evolution.
If you live in a place that has four seasons, you can strongly sense that your life has an ebb and flow related to the seasons. You may be acutely aware of changes in your energy, emotions, sleep patterns, and ambitions as the seasons change. The astrological signs represent that cycle of evolution of energy.
The energy patterns of the signs almost constitute a personality type, a typical mode of expression of the sign. For example, Aries, because it is the first sign of the zodiac and is associated with spring, symbolizes new energy, new beginnings, new growth, expansion of all creation. Those energy qualities are correlated with personal qualities such as courage, extroversion, aggression, and so on. It is not hard to see why Aries is called "the warrior," and how an astrological sign can take on human personality characteristics.
The Dates of the Signs
Viewed from the Earth, the Sun appears to change its position in the sky as it moves through the year (actually it's the Earth that tilts on its axis). The Sun moves into each constellation on a specific date. So when we say that the dates for Aries are March 21 to April 20, we mean that the Sun appears in Aries on those dates.
The Genders & Elements of Signs
Each sign is considered either masculine or feminine and is associated with one of the four elements, Earth, Air, Fire, or Water. As you might already have guessed, Aries, for example, is a masculine fire sign.
Your Birth Sign
At the moment of your birth-the most important day of your life-you come into the world under the influence of the energy of that specific moment generated by the heavenly bodies, how they stand in relation to each other, and the astrological sign of your birth date. You are infused with those energies and will be influenced by them throughout your lifetime. This is not at all surprising, given that you are an energy being! All of these energy relationships and their meaning are revealed by your horoscope.
When you are born you are like a seed that contains all the information and potential that will make it grow into a specific plant. Your horoscope is a chart of the beginning of your life (or of an event later in life). Like a seed, it contains information about the energy pattern that makes you who you are and points to your recurring life themes.
Learning about your sign can help you understand the themes that you experience in your personality, challenges and successes, relationships, health, and goals and dreams. Seeing those patterns will help you find ways to get around your challenges and work with your best qualities.
In my book Jewelry and Gems for Self-Discovery: Choosing Gemstones that Delight the Eyes & Strengthen the Soul I teach you about how to read your horoscope and how to find the main themes in your chart. You will get a deeper understanding about your part in the bigger picture of the universe. Then you will be able to balance yourself with your 12 main healing gemstones, you could call your true birthstones.
You can also visit me at the Astrological Signs Weather Report & Healing Gems Blog where I discuss the actual universal, astrological forces and inspire you to use them wisely for a successful and joyful life. Healing gemstones are suggested as tools to balance and come into alignment with the cosmic flow and can be used to create custom designed soul jewelry.

Aloha and many blessings, Shakti.
Many people listen to the weather report on the radio before they head out the door in the morning so they can be prepared for the day to come. My Astrological Signs Weather Report and Healing Gems blog will prepare you the same way: it will make you aware of the universal forces at work in the present moment so you can maximize your response to all that you encounter and align your efforts with the current cosmic trends for a successful and joyful life.

With the right awareness and understanding, you can learn to be in harmony with the flow of the universal forces in your life, using them to achieve your goals and dreams. Using astrology to read and interpret the universal forces at work in any given period will give you a real advantage in your ability to deal with challenges in your life and take advantages of the opportunities that present themselves.
One way to align yourself with the universal forces is to work with the metaphysical qualities of gemstones and crystals for health, energy, and balance.

As that ring turns, the planets move through each of the astrological signs in the course of one year. The 12 signs are:
1. Aries
2. Taurus
3. Gemini
4. Cancer
5. Leo
6. Virgo
7. Libra
8. Scorpio
9. Sagittarius
10. Capricorn
11. Aquarius
12. Pisces
The Signs as the Theater of Life
As you look up at the sky at night, you can imagine the planets as actors on a stage. In a sense, the astrological signs are the "stage" where the planets act out their roles. Each stage has its own particular energy pattern that influences the planets as actors. As a planet enters a sign, it comes under the influence of the energy pattern of that sign.
So we might say that "Mars is in Leo now," which means that Mars is now being influenced by the energy pattern of the sign of Leo. When Mars has finished its role in Leo it will move on to its next stage, Virgo, where things will be quite different for Mars! So Mars always retains its own qualities, but those are modified according to the sign that Mars is in.
The Character & Energy Patterns of the Signs
The signs get their characteristics from where they fall in the yearly cycle of one revolution of the zodiac, which represents one revolution of the Earth around the Sun. During that year, all life on Earth goes through one cycle of evolution.
If you live in a place that has four seasons, you can strongly sense that your life has an ebb and flow related to the seasons. You may be acutely aware of changes in your energy, emotions, sleep patterns, and ambitions as the seasons change. The astrological signs represent that cycle of evolution of energy.
The energy patterns of the signs almost constitute a personality type, a typical mode of expression of the sign. For example, Aries, because it is the first sign of the zodiac and is associated with spring, symbolizes new energy, new beginnings, new growth, expansion of all creation. Those energy qualities are correlated with personal qualities such as courage, extroversion, aggression, and so on. It is not hard to see why Aries is called "the warrior," and how an astrological sign can take on human personality characteristics.
The Dates of the Signs
Viewed from the Earth, the Sun appears to change its position in the sky as it moves through the year (actually it's the Earth that tilts on its axis). The Sun moves into each constellation on a specific date. So when we say that the dates for Aries are March 21 to April 20, we mean that the Sun appears in Aries on those dates.
The Genders & Elements of Signs
Each sign is considered either masculine or feminine and is associated with one of the four elements, Earth, Air, Fire, or Water. As you might already have guessed, Aries, for example, is a masculine fire sign.
Your Birth Sign
At the moment of your birth-the most important day of your life-you come into the world under the influence of the energy of that specific moment generated by the heavenly bodies, how they stand in relation to each other, and the astrological sign of your birth date. You are infused with those energies and will be influenced by them throughout your lifetime. This is not at all surprising, given that you are an energy being! All of these energy relationships and their meaning are revealed by your horoscope.
When you are born you are like a seed that contains all the information and potential that will make it grow into a specific plant. Your horoscope is a chart of the beginning of your life (or of an event later in life). Like a seed, it contains information about the energy pattern that makes you who you are and points to your recurring life themes.
Learning about your sign can help you understand the themes that you experience in your personality, challenges and successes, relationships, health, and goals and dreams. Seeing those patterns will help you find ways to get around your challenges and work with your best qualities.
