Zodiac signs are named after the constellations to which they corresponded in ancient times. In the process of developing the science of astrology, it became clear that for ease of work, special symbols or designations of zodiac signs are needed. I will tell you about them in the article.

I received a question via email:

Daria, Saratov

Hello Svetlana. I have long wanted to find out what the zodiac sign icons mean? Where did they come from? For example, I am a Pisces, but I don’t fully understand the icon of my sign. Thank you in advance for your response.

Aries

Aries traditionally opens the zodiac - this is where the vernal equinox point is located, when the day becomes equal to night. By the way, the word “Aries” means a ram older than one year.

The graphic symbol of the zodiac sign Aries is somewhat reminiscent of the Latin letter “V”. It is believed that it is an image of the horns of a ram. Isn't there a similarity?

There is another version according to which the Aries icon represents an image of a sunrise or an explosion.

People born under this constellation have exactly this character: they are impulsive, impetuous, courageous and strive to be the first in all areas of life.

Taurus

The symbol of the zodiac sign Taurus is a circle with an arc above it. This is a schematic representation of a bull's head.

The circle in this icon reflects the Sun (Human Spirit), and the arc - the Moon (Soul). Since the soul icon is located above here, it becomes clear that in the life of Taurus, the leading role is played by proximity to the Earth and nature, and not to the Cosmos and God.

The character of this sign is in many ways reminiscent of the traits of a bull - stubbornness, some slowness, power and great natural strength.

Twins

The symbol of the zodiac sign Gemini is the Roman numeral 2. It is not difficult to guess where this image came from. The word "twins" itself refers to two people - brothers or sisters.

There is also duality in the character of those born under this constellation. Such people are changeable; in their personality it is as if two dissimilar people live side by side.

By the way, pay attention to the arcs above and below in the designation of Gemini. They symbolize the waxing and waning moon.

When combined, they indicate the path of development from the past to the future.

Cancer

When you first see the symbol of the zodiac sign Cancer, you will immediately understand who we are talking about. The two “commas” in this icon are very similar to the claws of a cancer, which seems to be hiding behind them from an outside observer.

This sign really doesn’t like to be in the public eye; he prefers to stay in his closed and cozy little world, where no one will disturb him. Cancers love their home, which can be compared to a sink.

The Cancer symbol also reminds us of the infinity sign. Indeed, the emotions of representatives of the Cancer sign are so deep that this depth seems endless. And another decoding is the fusion of Yin and Yang, masculine and feminine, which results in pregnancy. Cancer is associated with motherhood.

a lion

The symbol of the zodiac sign Leo is a curl with a circle at the end. It is somewhat similar to the mane of a lion, creating a bright and noticeable image of this majestic animal in nature. Those born under this constellation also often have luxurious, not very manageable hair.

The circle in the symbol points us to the Sun, which is the patron of the zodiac sign Leo. It reflects the Spirit and inner core, strength of character and bright creative abilities.

The Leo symbol may resemble sperm. Before us is a “male” sign, which, like Cancer, participates in the act of creating new life.

Therefore, both of these representatives of the zodiac are recognized as excellent educators and very caring parents.

Virgo

The designation of the Virgo zodiac sign is ambiguous. Some argue that this symbol depicts 3 ears of wheat, carefully tied together. Representatives of this sign are truly close to the earth and hardworking.

There is another - historically based explanation of the Virgo symbol. The sign is a monogram of the letters “MV”, made up of the initials Maria Virgo, that is, the Virgin Mary.

Virgo represents purity and innocence. And if we talk about purity in the physical sense of the word, then purity is meant rather spiritually.

Scales

The symbol of the zodiac sign Libra exactly corresponds to its name. It reflects the ideas of justice and balance. As if on a scale, different points of view are weighed here, as a result of which the truth can be seen and people can be judged.

Representatives of Libra are endowed with a sense of proportion and beauty. They strive for balance and harmony in all areas of life, including seeking balance in relationships, and do not like conflicts.

Another meaning of Libra symbolism is the image of a sunset, as opposed to Aries, which represents the sunrise. Sunset is a wonderful, romantic time of day, isn't it?

Scorpion

The image of the zodiac sign Scorpio is the Latin letter “m”. There are two versions of the meaning of the arrow at the end of the symbol:

1. it denotes the poisonous sting of Scorpio;
2. indicates the tail of this animal.

In any case, the presence of an arrow indicates that Scorpio is directed towards active actions— he does not stop on the way to the desired goal. Scorpio's sting hints at his vindictiveness. By the way, you may be interested in material about.

Sagittarius

The zodiac sign Sagittarius is symbolized by an arrow that a centaur shot from a bow. It is no coincidence that the arrow is directed forward and upward. Sagittarius is aiming for the future, he is striving for high goals.

Representatives of this sign will not dwell on the past. Their gaze is directed into the distance, somewhere where the guiding star shines. This star is the ideal that inspires the centaur.

Sagittarius is also the sign of travel and expanding horizons. He shoots his arrows into different parts of the world, making amazing discoveries far from home.

Capricorn

The symbol of the zodiac sign Capricorn is ambiguous. There are two options for decrypting it:

1. in the first case, they talk about the image of the intricate horns and tail of a mountain goat, personifying a given zodiac sign;
2. in the second case, it is assumed that the symbol encrypts the Greek letters “tau” and “rho” - the first two letters in the word tragos, which means “goat”.

The mountain goat is endowed with such qualities as endurance, stamina, determination and courage. From birth, he has to climb mountain slopes in search of pastures, avoiding ravines and gorges. As a result, Capricorn reaches mountain peaks.

Aquarius

The designation of the zodiac sign Aquarius is two broken lines. They symbolize the ocean waves that rise due to the wind. Wind, like Aquarius itself, belongs to the Air element.

Representatives of this zodiac sign always strive to be in the flow. They are sociable, sociable, and friendly. Their minds, like waves, are constantly occupied with some ideas or concepts.

Aquarius is the seat of intelligence in the zodiac. He strives to understand the world, and his gaze is directed to the future.

That is why many Aquarians are interested in new electronics, and also study life in Space with interest.

Fish

The symbol of the zodiac sign Pisces is two fish that swim in different directions. They are indicated by semicircles on the right and left. The fish are connected by a “silver thread”, which has mythological roots.

It is no coincidence that the two fish look in different directions. This is a symbolic image of the eternal confrontation between the spirit and soul of man, earthly and heavenly.

One fish swims towards mysticism and spiritual development, ready to sacrifice all of itself to others. The other is directed towards achieving personal goals and self-realization.

There is another option for decoding the symbol. One of the fish swims with the flow, succumbing to the flow of life and not even trying to change anything in life. And the other one swims against the tide, making efforts for her own development.

These are the meanings of the symbols of the zodiac signs. These designations appeared in ancient times, but are still relevant today.

Zodiac sign symbols

Symbol Aries- conventional image of a sheep's head.
Aries (Aries). "The first is Aries in his golden fleece". Fire cardinal sign. Ruled by Mars. It begins the Zodiac, begins spring and symbolizes movement forward, indomitable strength, processes of awakening. Aries potential energy is comparable to power nuclear bomb, and this potential energy tends to turn into kinetic energy more often than its owner would like. Under negative circumstances, all this power goes into small things, but under favorable circumstances, Aries is a pioneer, revolutionary, barricade builder and conqueror. His impulse is irrational, his emotions are uncontrollable, he is inimitable in art, but often lacks where thoroughness and subtlety are needed. Aries is the spark thrown into the Zodiac to ignite and embrace new life.
Symbol Taurus resembles the head of a bull.
Taurus (Taurus). "He (Aries) turns around and is surprised by the mighty Taurus". And next comes Taurus - a fixed Earth sign. Ruled by Venus. At first glance, Taurus is an ideal variant of a preserving, holding principle. However, we should not forget that the nuclear energy brought into the Zodiac by Aries does not disappear anywhere in Taurus. This energy is already retained by Taurus, who does not want to distribute and scatter himself as generously as his predecessor, but it should not be converted into kinetic energy. The result will not be weaker. If anyone is curious to know what could come of this, then one can recall the Great French Revolution and Taurus-Robespierre at the head of the revolutionary government. However, Taurus rarely goes to such excesses. This is usually a variant of the Guardian, a vessel that contains harmony and knowledge.
Symbol Gemini- two horizontal lines with twisted ends, connected by two short vertical lines. Gemini in the Zodiac corresponds to two stars - Castor and Pollux.
Gemini. “He (Taurus) lies there, threatening his head, and demands that Gemini rise up. Out of fear, they grab each other and hug each other.”. It is not for nothing that this sign begins the triad of Air: the mutable cross, by its nature, is closest to the air element. Gemini is ruled by Mercury. And their nature is determined by the eternal transfusion from one hypostasis of Mercury to another: on the one hand, it is the wind, a messenger, an information flow, on the other, a cunning, changeable deceiver and merchant. This is not a struggle, this is a flow from one state to another, organically combined in Gemini. Geminis easily adapt and adapt others to changes in the subtle world. In art they are good when they reflect the world around them, capturing the eternal flows in its information space.
Symbol Cancer- two inverted and twisted loops. The spirals of these loops resemble shells. Together they are like the shell of a crayfish or crab. This glyph also resembles the Chinese symbols yin and yang.
Cancer (Cancer). "And next to Gemini the shining Cancer moves with an indecisive step". The cardinal cross began a new approach, and the water element had just begun. Cancer is the most “feminine” sign, ruled by the Moon. Its domain is the vibrations of the subconscious. They manifest themselves very clearly in Cancer himself, due to which Cancer sensitively detects similar vibrations in others. Cancer is water, it reflects but does not preserve, There are circles in the water, but there is no one to hold them. However, the energy in Cancer is hidden. After all, the Moon, which controls it, is not inclined to shine brightly; it only reflects the light of the Sun. Inner experiences come out rarely and ambiguously. However, they are the ones who rule Cancer. Cancer is a symbol of motherhood, a seed thrown into the ground, an emotional beginning in a person.
Symbol Leo looks like an unbent hook. This is an image of a lion's tail and at the same time the movement of the Sun, which sinks lower at this time of year.
Leo (Leo). "Then the Lion raises his mane". The fifth sign of the Zodiac, the second fire and second fixed sign. A sign of the central position of the will, inner consciousness, dominating the mind. He no longer gives himself away thoughtlessly, like Aries, but it is still easy to receive from him: fire signs are initially tuned to giving. Leo acts for the benefit of others, but is aware of himself in this movement. He has the ability to concentrate energy and direct it in the right direction, this is where his vaunted organizational skills lie. The ideal leadership in a critical situation is that of a lion. Energy reserves are less than those of Aries, but Leo's pride does not allow him to admit this, so this sign puts out more than it has in it, which leads to either exhaustion or borrowing from others (the latter also applies to Leo's skill). It's warm around Leo; this sign is ruled by the Sun. Therefore, his ideal function is to shine for others, but Leo realizes this only at the highest stages of his development.
Symbol Virgo looks like the letter m, the third stick of which has a curl added to it. This is a symbol of the harvest. It resembles the architecture of ancient granaries.
Virgo (Virgo). "And following him, the Virgin tames his rage". Virgo is a mutable Earth sign. Signifies the highest culmination of empirical experience, borrowed from all mutable signs and transformed into self-consciousness. Again we see a sign ruled by Mercury, but this Mercury is not a writer, but a scientist, excellent systematizer of accumulated knowledge and analyst. Virgo is the Earth, cleared of dirt, refined Earth. We should not forget that the sign is mutable. Therefore, the purpose of Virgo is to analyze the accumulated experience and isolate the main thing, to separate the important from the unimportant. In Gemini we saw the combination of the action of mind and strength in order to free the soul (Virgo) from enslavement by passions. At first, Virgo could not yet be independent; she needed guidance and protection of her mind. Now she has become the head: she has placed intelligence and strength in their place, that is, in an official position. Having reached this heavenly point in its evolutionary movement, the soul is freed from the bonds of matter and from subordination to the body.
Symbol Libra, the seventh sign of the Zodiac, consists of two parallel, horizontal lines, the upper of which is curved in the middle. This is a conventional image of scales. The glyph also resembles the Sun setting towards the horizon. The sign of Libra is associated with the autumn equinox and the decreasing length of the day.
Libra. “Next, day and night are weighed on the scales of the Scales, they remain in balance for some time, but the cup of night finally tips the scales.”. Well what can I say? The only inanimate sign of the Zodiac. Element - Air, cross - cardinal, ruling planet - Venus. Libra symbolizes harmony. A certain detachment and observational nature of activity give this sign the ideal ability to comprehend the internal filling of the Universe. Libra is a sign of cosmic harmony. This sign is marked by the divine from the beginning, and woe to him if he renounces this divine purpose for the sake of the earthly - the path of Libra will be broken. And such temptations appear constantly on the path of life, and the cup leans first to one, then to the other. Libra gains maturity and wisdom in return for thoughtlessly wasted energy.
Symbol Scorpio resembles the sign of Virgo, only the third stick of the letter m is supplemented with an arrow. This arrow is directed upward, into the sky, towards the future, and symbolizes hope for a good harvest next year, and therefore careful selection and planting of seeds.
Scorpio. "And, increasing in weight, the heavier cup bends and draws the brilliant Scorpio from the sign of winter". The element of Water in combination with a fixed cross gives rise to a hellish mixture that can be both a poison and an antidote. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto and co-ruled by Mars. The path of Scorpio is eternal war. This water does not know the liquid state, it is dry ice that can evaporate without melting. The energy of this sign is curious: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius are given energy from the outside, Scorpio produces it itself, with its eternal movement, as if by friction against the walls of the universe. The brighter the advantages of Scorpio, the brighter his shortcomings. Just as rotational movement makes any object stable and stable (for example, a top), so the impressions of the Scorpio soul form a pronounced, independent personality, in which, along with pride, perseverance, courage and practicality, ambition, malice, envy, and jealousy are manifested , hatred.
Symbol Sagittarius, the ninth sign of the Zodiac, is an arrow. pointing northeast. It symbolizes the fiery thought of a person. which breaks through the sublunary world and strives into infinity.
Sagittarius. "He is followed by a Centaur with his eye trained, his bow drawn and ready to shoot an arrow." And now Fire reaches its third, mutable manifestation. This is a tramp, an arrow shot into the sky, not knowing its target. But this arrow is in search, it changes those spheres of existence through which it passes. Sagittarius is a sign of synthesis, philosophy, broadening one's horizons; it is not without reason that it is ruled by the largest planet - Jupiter. If Aries splashes energy thoughtlessly, Leo distributes it at his own discretion, then Sagittarius is the source from which anyone can take, but take it on their own. Sagittarius energy does not initially go towards others, it goes into uncertainty. Sagittarius is marked by the sign of wandering, it is a will-o'-the-wisp. Ideally, Sagittarius is a teacher and philosopher, symbolizing the Enlightenment.
Symbol Capricorn has the shape capital letter V, from the upper right part of which hangs a thin stylized S. This is a conventional image of a goat with a fish tail or a waterfall.
Capricorn (Capricornus). “Then the steep-horned Capricorn appears with narrow horns.”. The tenth sign of the Zodiac, the third earthly and fourth cardinal sign. The vibrations of Capricorn have a pronounced earthly character: it is in him, thanks to ambition, that consciousness awakens with all its strength on the physical level. Capricorn is a climber, standing at the head of the Earth trine; nothing can compare with the influence it has on the material side of existence. The sign gives the ability to accumulate empirical experience and experiences relating to objective reality. Capricorn signifies the accumulation of practical experience and the search for the natural essence of phenomena. A distinctive feature of Capricorn is the instinct that governs the actions of those born under this sign in all areas, and especially in trade and politics. Capricorn's motto is selectivity. In relation to higher values, this means the materialization of ideas.
Symbol Aquarius- two parallel broken lines are the heat of the Sun’s rays, which melt the ice and turn it into water.
Aquarius (Aquarius). "Water flows from Aquarius' urn". Fixed Air. Fixity, which at first glance is not characteristic of Air, gives it depth and sharpness. This mountain wind. It is ruled by Uranus (the revolutionary planet) and the quality of Aquarius is high humanism. He is 180° away from his opposite - Leo, but is similar to him in many ways, except for one point: for him it does not matter whether he is in the center or whether he gives off energy. Aquarius does not give away energy, he has little of it, but he shows the way how to get it. Man is the central concept of the Aquarian value system. Let us remember the work of Vladimir Vysotsky - this is a hymn to the person who is nearby. And his rebellion is not the beginning of Aries that sweeps away everything, but a tireless movement forward, along paths invisible to others. Thinking for Aquarius is a way of existence. Therefore, his step is outwardly light, but his steps are deliberate.
Symbol Pisces - two semicircles located vertically, with their convex parts facing each other and connected in the middle by a horizontal line. These are two fish, one swims down into the depths of the waters, and the other floats to the surface.
Pisces. “Approaching, cold Pisces moves in its favorite waves, coming into contact with Aries and completing the cycle.”. The twelfth sign of the Zodiac, the third watery and fourth mutable sign, symbolized by two fish swimming in the opposite direction. This mutable sign, which can be compared to the waters of Lethe (oblivion), signifies the re-entry of consciousness into material substance (into the higher spheres of existence). Pisces symbolizes the eternal liberation of the Spirit. The consciousness embodied in Pisces is alienated from the earthly shell and, soaring above it, merges with the Universal Consciousness. The mental makeup of these people opens up access to obsession, melancholy, and hopeless despair in their souls. The sign is a symbol of passive and active sympathetic principles: mediumship, the barren life of feelings on the one hand, and on the other - active manifestation, the ideal of which is the commandment “love your neighbor as yourself.” A distinctive feature of Pisces is their ability to pass all impressions through consciousness.

It is impossible to understand when the science of astrology was born. It must have been back in the days of our primitive ancestors, when a guard of a camp or a shepherd, looking at the starry sky above his head, noticed that some clusters of stars form strict geometric shapes and cross the vault of heaven without changing. The movement routes of 8 planets were also noted. Later, the ancients came up with a horoscope, distributing Zodiac signs in order and giving them names.

Astrologer's advice: The level and effectiveness of people's education is often reflected in the way they manifest certain qualities. The upbringing of an individual also contributes to the characteristics of various behavioral properties.

Today, during space flights, it is difficult to believe in horoscope predictions. Well, how can a distant neighboring planet influence fate? specific person Ivan Ivanovich? No way! On the other hand, the Moon causes ebbs and flows on Earth, it hangs far away, and the water fluctuates! We humans are 80% water. Maybe the planet we were born under changes something in us?

Zodiacs in order:
Let's see Zodiac signs. In order goes first Aries (March 21 - April 20) . The planet of this zodiac sign is Mars. It is named after the ancient Roman god of war. The element of Aries is fire. It is clear that Aries by nature should be such lighters.

Astrologer's advice: Sometimes, a chance for a radical transformation of your personal life the best side, occurs only once in a lifetime. Don't miss it - sign up for it and find out when luck will be in your hands!

Next we have Taurus (April 21 - May 20). Taurus lives under the auspices of Venus. Also a planet with the name of the ancient Roman goddess of love and everything pleasant that is associated with this feeling. Someone whose horoscope sign is Aries should be characterized by love and high eroticism.

From May 21 to June 21, the night sky is dominated by Twins, who are under the care of the planet Mercury. This characterizes the duality of nature, some roguishness and high enterprise of the Greek god of trade.
If we consider zodiac signs in order next, then the next one will be Cancer. A badge of honor for those born from June 22 to July 22. The Moon reigns in their lives, it reveals to people born under the constellation Cancer the secrets of divination, magic and witchcraft, gives them prophetic dreams and an annoying disease - sleepwalking.

Sign Leo (July 23 - August 23) in his subordinates he generates courage and bravery, which is fueled by the blazing sun.
Virgo (August 24 - September 23) favorably allows the same Mercury to take care of itself and manage its life. There is no need to explain what the guardianship of a scoundrel can lead to.

Zodiac sign Libra (September 24 - October 23) makes those born under it hesitate in life at the slightest change in circumstances. Since Venus is involved here too, in Libra’s love affairs everything is neither shaky nor shaky.
Scorpio (October 24-November 22). The most mysterious, esoteric and destructive sign of the horoscope. Mars rules its owners, but not only as a warrior, but also as a tireless lover. Scorpio men are like that, and ladies born under this zodiac sign are the erotic dream of any gentleman. They are just very loving.
From November 23 to December 21, he rules the destinies of earthlings Sagittarius in the subordination of the distant and powerful Jupiter, mysterious and gloomy. Both the highest rise and fall into the abyss can bring his patronage. And those born in Sagittarius must be wary of anything sharp: a knife, an arrow, a well-aimed word.

Astrologer's advice: We invite you to study monthly and annual horoscopes for all zodiac signs. An astrological forecast will allow you to make favorable decisions on any issues. High quality and useful. Go to the section

Capricorn (December 22 - January 20) And Aquarius (January 21 - February 20), the following Zodiac signs in order, tested There is a strong influence of Saturn on their destiny. Just as he surrounded himself with rings, so people of these signs surround themselves with a veil of various robes and masks, deeply hiding their true essence. Only Capricorn is stubborn and persistent, while Aquarius is easily adaptable and a big conformist.

And finally Pisces (February 21 - March 20). Also ruled by Jupiter in combination with water element. This symbiosis gives rise to characters that are deep, filled and rich in emotion and creativity.

Astrologer's advice: Keep in mind that for an accurate description, it is necessary to take into account information taking into account the time, date and place of birth. Refined data will help you more accurately understand yourself or understand other people.

Now the most important thing. Never believe horoscopes broadcast on radio and television channels, published in glossy magazines and weekly newspapers. For each person, his horoscope is a strictly individual thing, calculated right down to the minutes of birth, taking into account astronomical changes and corrections. That is, made by an astrologer of the highest category only on specific data.

Zodiac signs are traditionally depicted using certain symbols, which are used in astrology to identify a particular sign. But few people thought about the origin of these symbols, much less their secret meaning.
Here we will try to give brief description each of the symbols of the zodiac signs. I hope that after reading this text, many people will be able to understand its meaning and easily determine their astrological sign in any horoscope.

Aries

The Aries symbol is the easiest to recognize, since it really closely resembles the horns of a ram. In the esoteric interpretation, the sign of Aries, located at the very beginning of the zodiac circle, is represented as a “big bang” that creates matter. Indeed, the symbol of Aries is quite reminiscent of the icon denoting an explosion. In addition, such an interpretation is fully consistent with the natural hot temper of the representatives of this sign.

Taurus

Traditionally, the symbol for Taurus resembles the head of a bull with horns on top. Esoterically, such a picture is given by a combination of images of a circle (Earth sign) and a semicircle (Moon sign), which symbolizes the creation of matter and space. It is no coincidence that the sign of Taurus patronizes creation and accumulation of material wealth.

Twins

Two arced lines joined together, representing the symbol of the sign Gemini. This combination of images of two Moons looking in different directions suggests the division of matter into two parts. Such an internal division of a person’s soul in two often manifests itself in the lives of representatives of the Gemini sign, both in internal mental torment and in external manifestations.

On the symbol of the Cancer sign we see two closed semicircles, creating a single ring between them. Some consider the symbol of Cancer to be a symbolic image of a woman's breast (semicircle), which, of course, corresponds to the feminine nature of this sign. From an esoteric point of view, such a twisted spiral corresponds to an egg, which also does not contradict the nature of the sign Cancer.

The Leo symbol has several popular interpretations. Some may think of it as the two valves of the heart, since Leo rules the heart. You can also find a description of this symbol in the form of a lion's mane. From the point of view of esoteric human development, the symbol of Leo is an image of a spermatozoon. This reflects not only the masculine nature of this sign, but also the ability and ability of a person to produce offspring.

Virgo

This symbol is similar to a scorpion (a stylized "M"), but instead of the tail pointing outward, it curls in on itself, as if absorbing the energy of life. The main esoteric task of Virgo is to structure the surrounding space. This cannot be said to be a purely female sign. Although, of course, women by nature cope better with this task. This stage in the development of life corresponds to the biblical sixth day of creation, when a person appears and begins to explore space, giving names and titles to everything created by the creator.

Scales

Sometimes the symbol of the Libra sign is compared to real weighing scales. However, in the traditional view, the symbol of the sign of Libra is in the form of the setting sun, as opposed to the sign of Aries, which symbolizes the dawn. And this is no coincidence. Located on the zodiac circle exactly opposite the sign of Aries, Libra marks the symbolic boundary between the first (physical) and second (spiritual) part of the Zodiac. That is why the main karmic task of Libra is to bring a sense of harmony and beauty into this world, to find the fine line of beauty and bring its standards to life.

Scorpion

This symbol is similar to the Virgo sign, but its tail is directed outward. Esoterically, Scorpios are generators of energy and, unlike Virgo, they do not take, but rather give more energy to the outside world. Although, in fact, this is not a completely correct image of the sign. More precisely, the sign of Scorpio characterizes the same image, but the “tail” of which is directed towards itself. This self-torture contains all the natural strength of the representatives of the Scorpio sign.

Sagittarius

A simple, memorable symbol that resembles an arrow. In an esoteric sense, it is an arrow that burns all the karmic “tails” of a person. It is no coincidence that Sagittarius himself is depicted as a centaur, rushing forward, but shooting from a bow behind him. Thus, it relieves a person from the burden of the past and relieves him of responsibility. But in return it gives the letter of the law, which, like an arrow, cuts through the former chaos and gives a person a vector for further development.

Capricorn

Perhaps the most unusual of the group of signs, this symbol can be seen as the curled horns of a goat. However, the roots of this designation of the sign of Capricorn should be sought in the ancient symbolic image of this sign in the form of a goat with a fish tail. This image originally appeared in ancient Sumer and belonged to the creator god named Enki, whose symbol was also a fish). It is in the sign of Capricorn that the improvement of matter occurs. And here a person can show and test his character.

Aquarius

This symbol resembles waves in the ocean, which perfectly characterizes the elemental nature of representatives of the sign of Aquarius. In an esoteric sense, the two waves in the sign of Aquarius symbolize living and dead water. Although this is still a controversial statement. The fact is that the most ancient symbols of the Aquarius sign depict a man (or god) pouring water from two jugs onto a fish. Symbolically, this may mean the emergence of reason, or, more precisely, the introduction of reason into an irrational being. At the same time, control of the streams of consciousness of such a person is left to the higher mind. It is no coincidence that many representatives of the Aquarius sign are naturally brilliant people. But it is simply impossible to explain their talents using simple logic.

Fish

This symbol represents two fish (two semicircles) joined together. But, nevertheless, these are two completely different fish, swimming in completely different directions. This is the nature of the representatives of this sign. They can either go with the flow, agreeing and accepting everything that life gives them, or rush forward, moving against the flow, regardless of any obstacles. Esoterically, two semicircle fish connected by a thin ribbon symbolize the end life cycle. It is no coincidence that this sign is considered a sign of death and transition to another world.

With best wishes and good luck,

Classic images of the signs of the Zodiac by John Hevelius

and no less classic horoscopes for each sign.

Jan Hevelius (German: Johannes Hevel, Polish: Jan Heweliusz, January 28, 1611, Gdansk - January 28, 1687, Gdansk) - Polish astronomer, telescope designer, mayor of Gdansk and hereditary brewer.

This is the interesting information Wikipedia reports about Jan Hevelius. Hereditary brewer, mayor of Gdansk... and astronomer. Lived on proceeds from brewing; astronomy is an amateur activity, a hobby. The beer “Jan Hevelius, Brewer and Astronomer” is still popular in Poland.
And he went down in history as an astronomer: he worked on issues of lunar motion, measured the distance from the Earth to the Moon, the period of revolution of the Moon, the period of the Sun’s own rotation, and the periods of revolution of the satellites of Jupiter. He was engaged in observations of double and variable stars. Using his sextant, he cataloged 1564 stars with an accuracy of 1′.
He discovered four comets and published the treatise “Cometography” in 1668, where he outlined the history of observations of all comets known at that time; showed that some comets move in parabolic orbits.
In 1690, after the death of her husband, his wife Elizabeth published the famous star atlas “Uranography”, based on Hevelius’ catalog and containing magnificent images of the constellations.

Aries.

First sign of the Zodiac: the first Fire and first cardinal sign, symbolizing undifferentiated consciousness, excitement and various excesses. A chaotic, disharmonious sign, the most striking features of which are impulsiveness, spontaneity, and instinctivity. Its vibrations are clearly expressed, sudden, but with a complete lack of direction, and action under the influence of a vital force, not subject to the directing impulse of the awakened consciousness, is closely connected with the Zodiac itself. Aries is a sign of strength, struggle, power, energy.
People born under this sign are usually enthusiasts of their business, pioneers, ambitious people, entrepreneurs, self-confident and willful. The worthy use of creative power within acceptable limits requires the controlling, endowing constancy, stability of a fixed sign. This combination enhances it extraordinarily.

In combination with a mutable sign, it becomes much less practical, however, possessing speed of perception, cognitive ability and subtlety. A distinctive feature of Aries is its activity, combined with the desire to lead and command. This is a sign of ambition and forward-looking energy.
The egoistic principle of Aries manifests itself mainly in the realm of ideas on the spiritual plane. Aries is in love with his own ideas, treating them like spiritual children. At the same time, he is not at all concerned with concerns about offspring in flesh and blood, since increasing the family would become too burdensome a burden on the path to the implementation of his Earthly mission. The entire being of Aries, immersed in his plans and ideas, rarely abandons the course once taken for their implementation, even if the impracticability becomes obvious. This makes Aries a madman and a despot. The egoistic principle often manifests itself in him in the form of excessive demands, inaccessibility, lack of sympathy and tact in relation to others. Being demanding of himself, he considers himself entitled to be demanding of others. A sense of duty comes first for him. Suffering in itself exists abstractly for him; he is not interested in the suffering of others, not having the ability to immerse himself in the concrete. For higher reasons, he is capable of anything to achieve his goal. His ambition is expressed in his desire to lead any business. Possessing the natural qualities of a leader, he can accomplish a lot.
Aries has a strong magnetic effect on others. Not limited financially, he is hospitable, generous and kind. Stinginess is unknown to him, but he is not inclined to give alms and, although property interests in themselves do not interest him too much, he is able to preserve and increase what he has for educational or diplomatic purposes.
Men are masculine. Women are endowed with a strong will. The erotic beginning of Aries tends towards idealization and sublimation. Due to the desire for self-realization in the spiritual or artistic sphere, the family recedes into the background.
Aries rules the brain and spinal cord. With unfavorable aspects (especially with Mars) it leads to hyperemia or neuralgia. In case of aspect with Saturn it leads to hypertension.
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Aries is iron phosphate, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to hyperemia, bleeding, inflammation of the lungs, meninges, and meningitis. In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Aries will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of his birth: sardonyx, amethyst, all red stones. Stones of the constellation opposite to Aries (Libra stones), being in dissonance with his nature, can destroy well-being and life: diamond, beryl, eye spar, crystal, opal, tourmaline.
The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Aries in January would be a garnet, in February and March - an amethyst, in August - a sardonyx, and in December - a ruby.

Calf.

The second sign of the Zodiac, the first Earthly and the first stable sign, whose symbol is Taurus. Refers to the Earth triad. Gives stability and strength. The type of movement characteristic of Taurus is rotation. Taurus is hardy, has great endurance, and the ability to keep secrets. A distinctive feature of this sign is its ability to preserve and save. This is the most reserved of all stable signs. Taurus has an unmistakable intuition in conducting financial affairs and commerce. His motto: common sense. The sign is identified with a coiled snake, symbolizing the enormous potential of hidden energy.
Taurus' selfishness manifests itself in a certain stinginess in resolving material issues. Taurus saves and preserves what he has. He has inexhaustible diligence in everything related to the sphere of material interests, and since it always seems to him that there are not enough funds, he tries with all his might to preserve them. Taurus is tolerant of others: without interfering in their affairs, he demands non-interference in his own. Not devoid of compassion, he gives alms, the size of which cannot be compared with the size of his fortune.

Acutely feeling the needs of those around him, he prefers to avoid direct contact with them; in the latter case, he often looks away out of justifiable fear that his property may suffer as a result of excessive love for his neighbor. This sometimes leads him to sharp contradictions with himself. He strives to get everything that can give him pleasure, and shows extravagance for the sake of luxury. In love, he is capable of big expenses. Not born an ascetic. Often he allows himself to be used by cunning people without receiving guarantees in return. His emotional knowledge of people often fails him. Sometimes, due to inappropriate complacency or excessive slowness, he may lose everything he has acquired.
Men are distinguished by pronounced sexual potency and are prone to excesses and excesses. Although the erotic principle is difficult to sublimate, the determining factor is still the urgent need to create a family for the purpose of procreation. In love they willingly remain faithful. Jealous. In the family they often become despots and tyrants. They prefer to combine erotic experiences with other types of pleasures, especially gluttony. Unlike Libra, who needs a mediator to realize erotic impulses in order to intensify the experienced sensations, Taurus are gourmets, but with the caveat that we are talking about “oral eroticism” (a hidden erotic experience that accompanies the process of eating). Sigmund Freud argued that oral eroticism is characteristic of children.
Taurus carries it throughout their entire lives. The action of this sign is not limited to the control of the occipital region and can lead to some stagnation of the juices. Excessive food consumption leads to various functional disorders, especially to the formation of stones and sand in the body. Those born under this sign often suffer from the formation of gallstones.
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Taurus is sodium sulfate, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to metabolic disorders and, as a result, to liver, kidney, diabetes, and skin diseases.
In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Taurus will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of his birth: agate, carnelian, white coral, all white transparent stones. Stones of the constellation opposite Taurus (Scorpio stones), being in dissonance with his nature, can destroy well-being and life: topaz, amethyst, bloodstone. The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Taurus in May and June would be agate.

Twins.

The third sign of the Zodiac, the first Airy and first mutable sign, whose symbol is the image of Gemini, expressing the dual nature of the sign. Associated with the spiritual expression of the Zodiac, and the variability of its nature serves as an expression of the transition of a spiritual or mental state to others (objective to subjective, abstract and vice versa). The sign is often depicted in the form of two vertical columns, denoting the gates of knowledge and the chambers of wisdom. In the objective world, the sign governs education and practicality, in the subjective world it characterizes the higher mind and supersensible perception.
The esoteric symbols of the sign are two monkeys: a stupid one, blindly imitating others, and a Divine one, capable of cognizing the highest transcendental roots, the mental level of which is inaccessible to an ordinary person.
Along with common sense, the sign imparts a brilliant intellect, drawing ideas from the treasury of the spirit. A distinctive feature of Gemini is duality, expressed in immediate changes of mood. Traditionally, Gemini is identified with the child, Aquarius with the father, and Libra with the spouse and mother.

A striking example of the contradiction between selfish interest and generosity is Gemini, generous with promises that are often not fulfilled only because their fulfillment does not promise any benefit. When giving, Geminis are guided by rational motives, and not by the call of the heart. Even in the case of self-sacrifice, Geminis find a compelling justification for their action in their own eyes and in the eyes of others. Gemini's selfishness manifests itself in the demand for punctuality and accuracy from others and much less exactingness towards oneself when all broken promises and deceptions are justified. Geminis are even capable of creating a miracle, just so as not to see those around them dejected and boring. Geminis provide many services to friends. Their sanguine temperament makes them immensely wasteful - and all this is just for the pleasure of seeing joyful faces. The fulfillment of the need to bring joy leads Gemini to art.
Gemini's prudence often interferes with the favorable conduct of affairs. Added to this is indifference to the fate of others. If the world consisted only of Gemini, not a single “SOS!” assistance would not have been provided in a timely manner. The indecision characteristic of Geminis and their desire for self-compensation often forces them to commit premature actions. The impulsive imbalance of Gemini causes a lot of trouble for those around them. In disputes and discussions, Geminis defend their views with fanatical inflexibility, often to their detriment.
Men are fragile, women are courageous. Both are changeable and prone to diversity. Sympathy plays a decisive role in choosing a partner. They make contact only with those who are close to them in spirit. Erotic experiences are perceived by them, rather, on the mental plane than in the sphere of physiology. At the same time, the partner’s sexual capabilities do not matter much, nor does his gender. Those who do not have a tendency to bear children. and others are bisexual: men are prone to homosexuality, women - to lesbianism. It is those born under this sign, for the most part, who make up the glorious cohort of prostitutes, since the erotic, not colored by the color of the soul, is easily subordinated to mercantile goals without compromising self-esteem and with a complete absence of remorse. Many of them enter the path of prostitution out of curiosity and then leave it. Unlike Aries, who idealize and sublimate eros. Geminis perceive the erotic as if latently, in parts, according to which their experiences are practically not subject to concentration and discharge in one direction. The erotic beginning of Gemini is initially suppressed by a strongly expressed logic, this ardent enemy of eroticism. It is obvious that a girl, at the moment of seduction, asks herself the question: “What will this give me?” - born under the sign of Gemini. And if she nevertheless gives in to the seducer’s advances, it is only out of curiosity or a thirst for novelty.
The most prominent representative of those born under this sign is the French nation. According to the famous French literary critic Lanson, the French nation is less sensitive than sensual and less sensual than rational, more prone to enthusiasm than to passions, devoid of dreaminess and poetry, not particularly artistic, more gifted in architecture than in music, greedy to logic at the expense of metaphysics and mysticism... The desire for accuracy turns into dryness, clarity of thinking prevails over depth. Sound-minded, she is at the same time fickle, frivolous, and devoid of strong attachments. The sign governs the respiratory tract and the upper motor complex (shoulder girdle and arms). Those born under this sign are susceptible to respiratory diseases. Under unfavorable conditions, angina pectoris or bronchial asthma may develop. However, even the most abundant food does not harm those born under this sign.
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Gemini is magnesium phosphate, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to convulsions, spasms of the stomach and intestines, colic, neuralgia, St. Vitus’ dance, tuberculosis, and scrofula.
In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Gemini will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of their birth: topaz, beryl, all variegated stones. Stones of the constellation opposite Gemini (Sagittarius stones), being in dissonance with their nature, can destroy well-being and life: hyacinth, garnet, turquoise, zircon, all red and green stones.
The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Gemini in March and April would be jasper, in October - beryl, in November - topaz and beryl, in December - topaz.

The fourth sign of the Zodiac, the first Water sign and the second cardinal sign, symbolizing the ability to exist both in water and on land, in other words, the metamorphosis that Cancer undergoes in the first stage of its life. The sign is at the head of a trine, which can be called psychic, so that all forms of expression characteristic of it are determined by this psychic basis. Cancer is capable of perceiving and preserving the vibrations it captures. Like water, it reflects all the objects around it. This is a sign directly associated with any sensory experience, impression affecting the senses and soul, from physical sensation to internal sensitivity, which is the fundamental basis of supersensible perception.

This is a sign that retains in memory a whole range of impressions. Any impulse excites an enhanced oscillatory movement in it, which determines the internal sensitivity characteristic of Cancer. The distinctive properties of the sign are endurance and a clearly expressed desire for sensation, fame and power. If Pisces rules the rivers, and Scorpio rules the seas, ice and lakes, then Cancer rules the Ocean. In addition, Cancer is believed to be the receptacle of the permanent flow of astral matter, containing images and forms and changeable, like the Moon, the mother of all living things, and Proserpina, the mistress kingdom of the dead.
Cancer has great attractive power, allowing him to subjugate to his will everything that is ready to submit. It is enough for Cancer to find out that someone needs an object, and he will take the initiative into his own hands, without even having time to figure out why he himself needs this object. At the same time, Cancer willingly gives. He is able to give up prey for the pleasure of helping someone. Cancer is characterized by the desire to bring joy to others. He can make gifts “incognito” only out of reluctance to be the object of admiration for his charity. Cancer is capable of self-sacrifice. This is the type of ideal mother.
Cancer is characterized by extravagance, this peculiar form of perverted experience of the “Ego”. All selfish and selfless actions of Cancer, as a rule, are determined by his mood.
Cancer shows particular wastefulness in relation to the biological resources of its body. He gives away his strength as readily as he accumulates it. Being only a communication center, Cancer seems to be penetrated by the outside world, which determines the uncontrollable beginning of this sign. His feelings are not subject to control by reason, which makes Cancer capable of unpredictable actions and deeds. The weakening of mind control often causes “Ego” experiences in Cancer, which are expressed in the form of destructive actions. Rejected by the object of his passion, Cancer once and for all strengthens his hatred of him. All former ties of love and friendship are instantly broken. Precisely Cancers world history owes most of the bloodshed committed as a result of wounded pride.
Men are gentle. Women are charming and magnetic. Sensual but unpredictable. They suffer from unfulfilled dreams, and realized desires are often perceived as being far from their ideas. They are at risk of self-exhaustion if they lack knowledge about their capabilities in the field of eroticism. The most reliable protection in this case is a long-term connection. Expressions of feelings are often determined environment and the moment. In their youth, they resort to masturbation or premature contacts with members of the other sex, partly due to early puberty, partly due to the lack of restraining factors that are not inherent in their psyche (unlike Capricorn). Children born under this sign should not be left unattended for a long time, since their pronounced imagination needs an object to which it could be directed, and in the absence of one, it is subject to outside influences. They tend to poeticize erotica. As for the physical constitution, the sign indicates the phlegmatic nature of the person born under it. Those born under this sign tend to be overweight, and their body needs to absorb a significant amount of water. The body's immunity is weakened. Of all the organs, the stomach is the most vulnerable. Under unfavorable conditions, sympathetic disharmony may occur. nervous system. Those born under this sign rarely live to old age.
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Cancer is calcium phosphate, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to rickets.
In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Cancer will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of his birth: emerald, chalcedony, all white opaque stones. Stones of the constellation opposite Cancer (Capricorn stones), being in dissonance with its nature, can destroy well-being and life: onyx, chrysoprase, all black stones. The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Cancer in May, June and July would be an emerald.

The fifth sign of the Zodiac, the second Fire and second fixed sign. A sign of the central position of the will, internal consciousness dominating the mind. The vital forces of the fire element, manifested in the sign of Aries, reach maturity in Leo, acquiring direction and control. Chaos and unbridled energy flows turn into a state of harmony and order.

This sign is characterized by stability in life positions, consistency of reason and feelings. Distinctive feature The sign is activity aimed at achieving, preserving and maintaining. This is a sign of power, strength, and organizational abilities. Leo is the main focus of "prana", or solar breath. Eastern astrology usually refers to the concept of five "vital fluids", or currents of vital energy, permeating the body and governed by the corresponding planet. Therefore, Leo is characterized by much greater self-confidence than other signs. If Aries represents the center of excitement and creative fire, then Leo represents the vital and productive force. Characteristic feature Leo is his spiritual generosity and domineering character. He is prone to wastefulness and has a sense of loyalty. This is a sign of organizing and cumulative energy.
Leo is generous, but gives more out of a desire to become famous, since he always needs to be in the center of events. In the absence of witnesses, the hand of his generosity becomes noticeably weaker, although sometimes he only needs one witness, himself, because... such actions elevate him in his own eyes. His generosity is genuine; as a rule, he does everything in his power. His experience of “Ego” is expressed mainly in morbid ambition: he willingly speaks, willingly publishes. Leo is capable of great things, just to be clothed in the purple robe of the winner and crowned with a laurel wreath. This goal of his sometimes goes so far that it begins to seem to him that those around him share his tastes. At the same time, Leo believes that all his habits and needs are equally suitable for others. Desiring the common good, Leo perceives it subjectively, egocentrically; while completely oblivious to the reality around him. Similar to two other Fire signs - Aries and Sagittarius. Leo lives in a world of his own making, a world in which the suffering of others is seen through rose-colored glasses. If we are talking about a matter that, in Leo’s opinion, is worthy of him. he is capable of putting his own life on the line.
Polarization is highly developed in both sexes of representatives of this sign. Love plays a very important role in their life; in love they are inexhaustible and inexhaustible. In love, they look not so much for pleasure and sensuality, but for the opportunity to use the excess of internal potency. They tend to have sex that is much more about sport than pleasure. People are introduced to sex from early childhood. They care little about choosing a partner, especially in their youth, but they behave with dignity and honesty. Subsequently, the desire to achieve a vital goal can capture them entirely, subordinating the sexual sphere to the service of this goal. However, unlike Aries, the solution to political and social problems does not come at the expense of the erotic principle.
Leo's eroticism is orderly, rhythmic, purposeful, internally healthy and free from perversion. Leo men are the type of lover who seems to have stepped off the stage. Courtesans born over this sign chose an ancient craft due to an excess of vitality. More than anything. Those born under the sign of Leo are not prone to asceticism. Having reached puberty very early, they become familiar with eroticism, which becomes an impulse of the soul in their lives, their vital need.
The body of those born under this sign is strong and resilient. The most vulnerable organ is the heart, due to large overloads of the body. A predisposition to inflammatory processes (fever, pneumonia, pleurisy) is obvious.
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Leo is potassium sulfate, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to cardiovascular diseases, pleurisy, aortic enlargement, and fainting.
In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Leo will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of his birth: ruby, jasper, hyacinth, sardonyx, chrysolite, all yellow stones. Stones of the constellation opposite Leo (Aquarius stones), being in dissonance with his nature, can destroy well-being and life: sapphire, obsidian.
The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Leo in March and April would be jasper, in August - sardonyx, and in October - chrysolite.

Virgo.

The sixth sign of the Zodiac, often depicted as three ears of corn. Signifies the highest culmination of empirical experience, borrowed from all mutable signs and transformed into self-consciousness. Virgo requires material purification necessary for the formation and development of self-awareness. This is a sign of diligence and its fruits, giving the analytical mind necessary to comprehend the highest wisdom.
Failure in the process of forming a highly developed consciousness causes the appearance of such traits as servility, sycophancy (in those born under the sign of Virgo), vanity and pride (in those born under the sign of Capricorn), laziness and stubbornness (in those born under the sign of Taurus).
The truth of the spirit in the sign of Virgo recognizes its reflection in the outer world. In an undeveloped soul, this property causes blind imitation, slavishly copying all manifestations of the external world without its qualitative assessment under the influence of a strong personality or following the demands of the time. In highly developed types, a distinctive feature is the ability to detail, statistics and blind recognition of authorities.

Virgo is often considered cold, not in need of self-affirmation, and although she is accused of materialism, she is capable of showing philanthropy. Humanity finds its expression in its focus on realizing the motivations of its “I”. Despite materialism and atheism, Virgo is capable of selfless acts that have nothing in common with the dedication of idealists and subjectivists. The only requirement that Virgo makes to the surrounding reality is logic. Virgo is capable of parting with part of her property if her mind is clearly convinced of the advisability of such an act. Virgo is not insensitive, she is prone to compassion, but it is difficult to give in to a momentary impulse. Noticing everything external signs, Virgo is always aware of the affairs of her neighbors. Virgo's selfishness is expressed in the desire to own real estate or engage in profitable business. Many people born under this sign lack the connection between thinking and feeling. Until the emotional is transformed into the motivation of the mind, it will not be allowed to control actions.
Virgo is a sensitive nature, self-suppressed by its own intellect, in which there is no ambition or vanity. All she strives for, like mollusks building limestone dwellings for themselves, is to build the material basis of their existence. Having built a shell for herself in the first third of her life's journey, the remaining three quarters of Virgo are engaged in its improvement. By the end of the journey, Virgo becomes less collected and more generous, but completely retains its prudence.
The sex life of those born under this sign is very moderate. Among them there are many who suffer from impotence, lack of impulsiveness, and lack of erotic audacity. There is a habit of creating a family under the strong influence of reason. After thirty years, the erotic principle tends to intensify. For most, erotic relationships do not go beyond a friendly conversation, and this requirement is decisive in choosing a partner. At the same time, strong attachments are not excluded, but the erotic principle continues to remain suppressed. The sexual sphere and relationships with the other sex are never perceived as a sin. Virgo is internally pure, even plunging into the abyss of eroticism. Those born under this sign are good partners, subtly and highly appreciating the warmth of the soul. The nascent feeling turns into a connection if the partner is able to fill the emotional emptiness of Virgo. The presence of sufficient reasons of reason can serve as a basis for marriage.
The most vulnerable organ is the abdominal cavity (intestines). The body often produces autotoxins, which, penetrating from the intestines into the blood, affect the central nervous system, leading to neurasthenia; The spinal cord can also be affected.
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Virgo is sodium urate, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to drowsiness, chills, diarrhea, stomach colic, and vomiting.
In achieving her goals and fulfilling her desires, Virgo will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of her birth: emerald, jasper, sapphire, chalcedony, garnet. Stones of the constellation opposite Virgo (Pisces stones), being in dissonance with her nature, can destroy well-being and life: alexandrite, red coral, aquamarine, sapphire.
The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Virgo in January would be garnet, in March - jasper, in April - sapphire, in May - emerald, in June-July - emerald and sapphire.

Scales.

The seventh sign of the Zodiac, the second Air and third cardinal sign, symbolized by the two scales. This is the first sign of distribution or expansion, its characteristic effect is an elusive vibration.
If Fire signs are associated with energy, Water signs are associated with dynamics and receptivity, then Air signs are associated with expansion and mentality. Air signs have a direct connection to the spirit and spiritual experiences. A distinctive feature of all forms of manifestation of this triad are human aspirations, free from the animal nature. The peculiarity of movement characteristic of the sign of Libra leads to the differentiation of bodily feelings and the spiritual principle and their opposition on the scales, and the vibrations of both scales tend to balance and achieve a balance of consciousness. This sign, which balances objectivity and subjectivity, makes people born under it prone to fair compromise.
A distinctive feature of the sign is communication and agreement, expressed in the desire to please, as well as in the form of piety for higher reasons.

Libra's selfishness is passive in nature and concerns more the sphere of expectation than action, with a complete lack of focus on material wealth. It is desirable for Libra to see their “I” in the brilliance of universal admiration; the desire to please makes them ready for any sacrifice. Vanity often leads to some indifference towards others. The ability for deeper empathy is rare, since Libra, madly in love with harmony, as a rule, themselves is devoid of any depth. Unlike Aries, who tends not to pay attention to others as much as not to demand attention from them, Libra cannot remain in the shadows for a moment, since their own existence completely depends on the harmony and well-being of the world around them.
Libra gives alms out of the need to establish balance, as if obeying a higher law. If Aries's desire is for his beautiful ideas to become the property of those around them, capable of spiritualizing them, then his antipode, Libra, on the contrary, strives to ensure that the beautiful acts only on themselves, and the ideas of the people around them are embodied in their own head. Libra craves worship, attention, admiration. At the same time, they have a sense of justice. They will never claim what is not rightfully theirs. Libra is true to this principle in everything that does not concern the intellectual or spiritual sphere, for in this case all means turn out to be good. However, if someone else’s idea is borrowed, it is more out of a desire to please at all costs, rather than out of malicious intent. Living as a reflection of the world around them, Libra is a mirror that reflects the spiritual perfection of the people around them. The apogee of Libra's aspirations is success, recognition, admiration. In this regard, their egoism often takes on exaggerated forms of rivalry, especially in the fields of science and art. For those born under this sign, the erotic principle, not being an independent impulse, is expressed in the form of a feeling of beauty that arises at the moment of enjoying music, dancing, and painting. The surrounding atmosphere serves as a backdrop for the manifestation of the sexual impulse, however, unlike Cancer, who in the event of an incident gets lost in the labyrinths of his own feelings, completely dissolving in the erotic, which becomes all-encompassing for him, the erotic beginning of Libra serves as a kind of dot over the “i” in while those born under this sign remain internally emotionally cold. Due to their natural attractiveness, Libra women are often in danger of being seduced or raped, but even in this case they retain their inherent purity. The erotic perception of a sexual act arises in them only under the influence of alcohol, drugs, music, dance, and theatrical performances. The call of desire is practically unknown to those born under this sign. Appearance partner, courtly treatment, gifts, especially Jewelry, furs and shoes are a unique form of perception by Libra women of the erotic impulse. In married life, Libra is contraindicated from monotony and routine. Along with a well-known greed, the joy derived from the variety of boulevard life, visiting restaurants and balls, the opportunity to display toilets, furs, jewelry and other accessories of this lifestyle often pushes women born under this sign onto the path of prostitution.
The sign affects the area associated with the base of the spinal column, kidneys and groin. The kidneys serve as a kind of scales for the body, maintaining water balance. In general, those born under this sign are distinguished by a relatively healthy state of the body, however, local disorders can lead to sharp deterioration well-being (dystrophy, insomnia, nervous disorder).
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Libra is sodium chloride, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to metabolic disorders, functional disorder of toxin-removing organs (glands, skin, kidneys), exudates, diphtheria, catarrh.
In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Libra will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of their birth: diamond, beryl, ocular spar, crystal, opal, tourmaline. Stones of the constellation opposite Libra (Aries stones), being in dissonance with their nature, can destroy well-being and life: sardonyx, amethyst, all red stones. The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Libra in October and November would be beryl

Scorpion.

The eighth sign of the Zodiac, the second Water sign and the third fixed sign, whose symbols are the snake, scorpio and eagle. The sign of latent energy, which controls the processes of transformation of liquid bodies into solids, and, indeed, the rotational movement characteristic of Scorpio causes a tendency towards hardening. The embryo of the soul, born of the oscillatory movements of Cancer, with the awakening of consciousness comes to a stable state, unusually strengthening and stabilizing all the emotions and feelings of this sign. The sign emphasizes virtues and vices: no matter what Scorpio turns his attention to, he will be neither frivolous nor indifferent. Just as rotational movement makes any object stable and stable (for example, a top), so the impressions of the Scorpio soul form a pronounced, independent personality in which, along with pride; perseverance, courage and practicality, ambition, malice, envy, jealousy, and hatred are manifested.

In the case of a developed inner life, Scorpio exhibits a considerable capacity for occult sciences and supersensible perception. His distinctive feature is the passion and intensity of his experiences. Like every central or stable sign in any trine, Scorpio is that critical sign whose hallmark is the desire to carry out one's plans (will).
Scorpio is considered the most selfish of all the zodiac signs. This opinion is caused by Scorpio’s desire to realize the intended goal, on the one hand, and the dominant role that he plays in society, due to his ability to concentrate thought and will, on the other. Scorpio's selfishness is usually derived from its energy-consuming nature, similar to all signs of the Water trine (Cancer and Pisces). Scorpio's powers quickly burn out, which requires him to create a biological defense mechanism on the material level, and on the spiritual level - to fight secret enemies; often by insidious methods. Perhaps Scorpio cannot be called self-centered. The world owe him a lot. Scorpio's selfishness is directed not so much at material wealth, like that of Taurus, its antipode, but at spiritual values. Scorpio constantly accumulates knowledge, fighting for authorities and priorities. At the same time, he fights against both obvious and unknown opponents. Being dual by nature, Scorpio contains the enemy in his own psyche, projecting his image onto someone around him. Scorpio is capable of anything to achieve the intended goal, without forgiving this quality to others. By willingly providing them with their daily bread and earthly goods, he is all the more jealous of their privileges. Ready to give to those in need, he scrupulously checks them, afraid to show inappropriate generosity. Scorpio is diplomatic, willingly shares his spiritual wealth, preferring to give gifts to people who are a step below him in their professional career or level of education, while keeping most of the knowledge for themselves. In relation to his equals and superiors, he shows severe restraint, having difficulty enduring their close proximity. Scorpios engaged in scientific or literary activities very rarely refer to their contemporaries in their works, making an exception only for recognized authorities. If the thirst for passion is satisfied, Scorpio will not pay attention to anyone’s interests. For Scorpios, who are at the lowest level of consciousness development, all means are good for the sake of realizing the goal in relation to the object of desire.
In everything related to the sexual sphere, Scorpios are true egoists.
This sign is the personification of “great passion”.
Those born under it are capable of fiery love of a dominant erotic nature. The erotic principle does not need stimulation by persons of the opposite sex. Perversions are possible, but homosexual tendencies are rare. Scorpio's sexual energy is inexhaustible. Passion often leads to excesses. The stamp of eroticism lies on all manifestations of those born under this sign, be it sensory perception, mental work or painting. Scorpios suffer rather from prohibitions in the sphere of eroticism and suppression of their own impulses. For Scorpio, erotica is a source of superhuman creative power on the path of spiritual improvement. Their creativity is unmatched. Some Scorpios are capable of complete renunciation of sex life in the name of self-improvement in the spirit. This sign is characterized by two faces (two-faced Janus), and in the sphere of eroticism it is characterized by both the need to satisfy the basest carnal instincts and the desire to achieve the heights of spiritual perfection. By controlling all viscous liquids (oil, toxins, feces, swamp water, chemicals), Scorpio influences the condition of the genitourinary system. Purulent diseases and malignant abscesses are also attributed to its influence. The psyche of those born under this sign is also very vulnerable. Intentional poisoning is possible.
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Scorpio is potassium phosphate, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to a disorder of the central nervous system, neurasthenia, sclerosis, severe infectious (typhoid, sepsis) and venereal (syphilis) diseases.
In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Scorpio will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of his birth: topaz, amethyst, bloodstone.
Stones of the constellation opposite to Scorpio (Taurus stones), being in dissonance with his nature, can destroy well-being and life: agate, carnelian, white coral, all white transparent stones.
The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Scorpio in February and March would be amethyst, and in November and December - topaz.

Sagittarius.

Is the ninth sign of the Zodiac. This is the third Fire and third mutable sign. Depicted as a centaur shooting an arrow. Relates to the transformation of consciousness. A sign of vibration, transformation in the area that is the application of his forces.
The power of dispersion and differentiation inherent in the sign of Aries is united and concentrated in the sign of Leo and is clothed with the light of spirituality in Sagittarius. The revelation of Sagittarius manifests itself in the form of a genius, transforming consciousness and bringing it to the level of manifestations of brain activity. Sagittarius, being the sign of prophecy, binds together the life of the Spirit, soul and body. The forces of this sign, colored with the color of languor and dedication, are directed towards the higher spheres of existence. The dual nature of the sign is manifested in the objective and subjective sides of intuitive consciousness. Both forms interact through vibration of energy flows. A distinctive feature of Sagittarius is his love of travel. And if Aries is a pioneer, an architect, Leo is an organizer, then Sagittarius is a producer of work.
Manifestations of egoism of this Fire sign are similar to the manifestations of the other two signs of the Fire trine - Aries and Leo. Sagittarius is distinguished by strong egocentrism and pronounced ambition. In an effort to dominate his surroundings, he is capable of smashing his head through a wall. The desire to rule over others can lead him to autocracy or megalomania, and in the event of a fiasco of all his ambitions, lead to suicide. In the role of a teacher, preacher or politician, Sagittarius does not tolerate objections and demands resigned submission from others. The desire to suppress at any cost was born with him and is his innate quality. Sagittarius is the type of person who is capable of subordinating the flesh to his will, and shows some inclination towards spiritual auto-training, suppressing the animal instincts of the “I”, improving in spirit.

Being involved in religious or philosophical activities, Sagittarius is able to give a lot of value thanks to its pronounced optimism. However, the richness of his imagination, manifested in the form of generosity, often causes confusion and confusion. He is prone to separatism and rebellion. Those around him have to put up with the fact that he looks down on them. Knowing well the weaknesses of those around him, he can calculate the optimal moment to attack. However, deeply shocked by the suffering he caused, he strives, if possible, to soften the blow. If Gemini, the sign opposite to Sagittarius, in this case acts out of calculation or in order not to see the dejected faces of others, Sagittarius acts in accordance with an internal impulse. However, the emotional excitement he experiences is immeasurably greater than the practical help that he is able to provide, since the enviable dexterity of Sagittarius contributes to the implementation of help, mainly at the expense of other people.
Being a dependent person by nature, he prefers to give others the opportunity to work in his place, continuing to revel in his own generosity. However, Sagittarius' intuition sometimes contributes to the sublimation of his essence, leading to self-denial and self-sacrifice for higher reasons. A distinctive quality that is equally characteristic of Gemini and Sagittarius is their hesitation and instant change of views. But if Gemini wastes words on any occasion, then Sagittarius, a brilliant master of dialectics, is stingy with words, showing eloquence only when necessary.
Representatives of this sign have a pronounced erotic beginning, which, unlike Scorpio, they are not inclined to waste. They have a sense of self-control and proportion. Impotence does not threaten this sign, however, Sagittarius is not able to compare with Scorpio in terms of the power of sexual energy expenditure. Excesses in the erotic sphere usually end in severe depression. Sagittarius must maintain his inherent balance. Unlike Scorpio, it is much easier for Sagittarius to become an ascetic. If for Scorpio the erotic principle is inextricably linked with his spiritual improvement, and his needs are in harmony with his possibilities, then the erotic principle of Sagittarius only permeates the spiritual, while erotic possibilities are determined by the state of health.
The functions of the genital organs are perceived by Sagittarius as a creative act, which should be strived for, but which should not be abused. Every excess in this area leads to severe imbalances in the body. In this regard, representatives of the sign are prone to abstinence and platonic love. The nature of Sagittarius' erotic relationships largely depends on the choice of a partner, which, by the way, is not always successful. A partner with a pronounced tendency towards eroticism can cause problems with his health and an obstacle to building a career.
The mystery and tragedy of the erotic life of Sagittarius lies in the combination of sexual intercourse with the higher aspects of its perception. Sagittarius is subordinate to the muscular-motor system as a whole. Those born under this sign can be good athletes. The consequences of the affected sign are accidents, hernia, severe injuries, and inflammation of the joints. Excesses are the enemy of those born under this sign, who are subject to severe nervous overload.
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Sagittarius is sodium phosphate, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to excess lactic acid, uric acid diathesis, rheumatism of the joints, and increased acidity.
In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Sagittarius will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of his birth: hyacinth, garnet, turquoise, zircon, all green and red stones.
Stones of the constellation opposite Sagittarius (Gemini stones), being in dissonance with his nature, can destroy well-being and life: topaz, beryl, all variegated stones.
The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Sagittarius in January would be hyacinth and garnet, in February - hyacinth, in May, June and July - emerald, in October and November - beryl.

Capricorn.

The tenth sign of the Zodiac, the third Earthly and fourth cardinal sign, symbolized by Capricorn and sometimes the Crocodile. The vibrations of this cardinal sign are of a distinctly earthly nature: it is in it, thanks to ambition, that consciousness awakens with all its might on the physical level. Capricorn is a climber, standing at the head of the Earth trine; nothing can compare with the influence it has on the material side of existence. The sign gives the ability to accumulate empirical experience and experiences relating to objective reality. The favorable and unfavorable sides of the sign are understandable to those knowledgeable in the wisdom hidden in mythology and esoteric symbolism. If Capricorn is a symbol of the external nature of the sign, then the Crocodile, like an amphibious creature, serves as a symbol of its innermost essence. Capricorn signifies the accumulation of practical experience and the search for the natural essence of phenomena.
A distinctive feature of Capricorn is the instinct that governs the actions of those born under this sign in all areas of activity and, especially, in trade and politics. Capricorn's motto: selectivity. In relation to higher values, this means the materialization of ideas.

Traditionally considered to be quite selfish. Capricorn's selfishness is due to timidity and cowardice, which determine the desire to protect what has been accumulated from possible losses. Capricorn is characterized by stinginess. It is those born under this sign who form the gallery of the great stingy ones. If Cancer, the opposite of Capricorn, possessing enormous attractive power, inevitably parted with everything that comes to him, then Capricorn, who is significantly inferior to Cancer in attractive power and is able to accumulate a few pennies, without much difficulty holds on to everything he possesses. Even with a certain stinginess of funds, Capricorn is able to gradually accumulate a considerable amount at the cost of incredible efforts, but as a result, he becomes the owner of what previously belonged to Cancer and was lost by him.
Capricorn is characterized by petty egoism in everything related to the material sphere. Annoyed with himself due to the loss of a bread crumb or other objects, Capricorn is very unpretentious. He is a great enemy of luxury and wastefulness, fearing them like fire. Capricorn is capable of sacrifice, but realizes its value only if the need is completely adequate and at the same time always loses sight of the right moment. In matters of improvement in spirit, he is mainly guided by inner ambition. Recognizing neither public opinion nor fame. Capricorn strives to achieve his own goals. He is ready to grovel before his superiors, just to have the opportunity to exist peacefully for months and years.
The lower types of Capricorns have a tendency towards religious seclusion. Those who are more advanced in their development are able to rise to the sight of the Son of God in true service to him. A big egoist and owner in the field of eroticism, Capricorn demands freedom for himself, denying the same to his partner.
Those born under this sign are very reserved, but eroticism can cause intense internal struggle in their souls. Perversions are possible. In early youth they are prone to masturbation. Dreams of an ideal being of the opposite sex often prevent the realization of trivial feelings. The first half of life is frigid, after thirty years they make up for lost time by becoming active. sex life. The complexes that representatives of this sign suffered from in their youth leave an imprint on their entire future life. They are very resilient in sex and are not prone to exhaustion. By nature they are disposed to excesses that would not bring them harm. Capricorns avoid them due to an internal prohibition against eroticism. Those born under this sign are characterized by expectancy and slowness, due to which they always end up last. This also applies to their attitude towards opposite sex. The emergence of complexes in youth is due to a similar reason - excessive slowness, but it is also accompanied by false ideas about persons of the opposite sex. Sometimes Capricorns find the strength to get rid of such complexes, which leads them to abuse: men become red tape, continuing the worthy traditions of Casanova. Others become fauns who have a magical effect on women. Women born under the sign of Capricorn are usually very balanced.
Traditionally, Capricorn is considered the ruler of the knee region. If affected by unfavorable aspects, it leads to indurations, obstructions, nervous breakdowns, depression. Those born under this sign often have a disproportionate body structure. The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Capricorn is calcium fluoride, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to bone diseases, hernias, atony of the abdominal organs, violations of the integrity of the skin, and the formation of exudates.
In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Capricorn will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of his birth: onyx, chrysoprase, black stones.
Stones of the constellation opposite Capricorn (Cancer stones), being in dissonance with his nature, can destroy well-being and life: emerald, chalcedony, all white opaque stones.
The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Capricorn in July would be onyx.

Aquarius.

The eleventh sign of the Zodiac, the Third Air sign and the fourth fixed sign, symbolized by the Man with a jug from which water is poured onto the ground.
Aquarius is characterized by concentration of thought and an attempt to contain the spiritual fluctuations of Libra. The spiritual-material nature of this sign lies in the “Man” symbol itself. In movement around the circle of the Zodiac, it personifies the point of transition of the circle into a spiral, i.e. the point of beginning of a person’s improvement in spirit and his achievement of the stability inherent in a stable sign, stability that allows a person to overcome his animal nature and rise to a higher level of spiritual perfection. A distinctive feature of Aquarius is philanthropy and the desire for a synthesis of science and art. The symbol of this last of the stable signs are two snakes: the snake of Wisdom and the snake of Earth (Adam Kadmon) - since this symbolism hides the secrets of the destinies of humanity.
In a person born under this sign, the “I” is completely suppressed, which amounts to characteristic feature all Air signs. The egoistic principle of Aquarius is manifested in the tendency of his thinking to motivate actions and actions and the desire for self-affirmation at any cost in order to again feel this “I” driven deep inside. For this purpose, Aquarius needs bizarre and strange actions, extraordinary actions, since everyday routine does not provide such an opportunity.

Often, Aquarius becomes the bearer of an idea that goes against the surrounding reality and spirit of the times and destroys the traditional foundations of society. Thanks to the capacity for self-sacrifice, absent from its antagonist, Leo, Aquarius is able to show rare selflessness. At the same time, among Aquarius there are individuals prone to senseless, absurd, often criminal actions and extreme manifestations of cruelty. Aquarius is capable of monstrous deception for the sake of insignificant gain and only because the process of deception itself has much more meaning for him than the result, which makes him an incorrigible charlatan and cheater. The greatest attractive force for him is risk, grotesque, sudden impulse, on the verge of good and evil, of an idea being realized. Aquarius is distinguished by a tendency to waste.
Unlike its antipode, Leo, who feels himself to be the center of the whole world, Aquarius feels himself opposed to a certain center, scattered in world space.
Aquarius has the inherent quality of reflecting the events of the surrounding world (the ability of all Air signs to mirror phenomena and events). By nature he is an experimenter, but at the same time he conducts experiments on the people around him and, without hesitation, cripples their souls, destroys their happiness, and deprives them of their prosperity. Those born under this sign are prone to change in the sphere of eroticism and, for the most part, are very superficial. Sometimes excesses are possible, but not due to an excess of vitality or desire for reproduction, but due to the corresponding structure of the psyche, disposed to extreme experiences. Most often, Aquarians live one day at a time, alien to calculations and plans. In the field of erotica they tend to introspect. Those born under this sign have more frivolity than genuine passion, which makes them similar to Libra. Aquarius, like other Air signs, is not in danger of falling into the mud, like the Earth signs, Taurus and Capricorn, or Water signs, Cancer and Scorpio. Most Aquarians are sensitive aesthetes; their behavior in the sphere of eroticism maintains the high level inherent in this sign. In this case, perversions are possible, but for aesthetic reasons. Representatives of this sign often join the cohort of prostitutes, however, not due to internal depravity, but due to frivolity or a contradictory desire to challenge society and trample generally accepted moral principles. In their youth they are able to run away from home in the name of freedom of existence, not bound by any conventions.
Poorly placed and occupied by "evil" planets, Aquarius leads to degeneration. Many of those born under this sign have physical disabilities.
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Aquarius is aluminum, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to diseases of a spasmodic nature, disorders of the central nervous system, and joint diseases.
In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Aquarius will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of his birth: sapphire, obsidian.
Stones of the constellation opposite Aquarius (Leo stones), being in dissonance with his nature, can destroy well-being and life: ruby, jasper, hyacinth, sardonyx, chrysolite, all yellow stones.
The ancients believed that the lucky talisman for Aquarius in April, May and September would be sapphire.

Fish.

The twelfth sign of the Zodiac, the third Watery and fourth Mutable sign, symbolized by two fish swimming in the opposite direction. This mutable sign, which can be compared to the waters of Lethe (oblivion), signifies the re-entry of consciousness into material substance (into the higher spheres of existence). Pisces symbolizes the eternal liberation of the Spirit. If in Cancer sensory impressions only awaken to life, in Scorpio they concentrate and deepen, then in Pisces these impressions dissolve in a consciousness as deep as the ocean, inexpressible and intimate, expressed in manifestations of earthly love. The consciousness embodied in Pisces is alienated from the earthly shell and, soaring above it, merges with the Universal Consciousness.

The dual nature of the sign serves as an indication of the dangers associated with philanthropy. A failed attempt to enter the higher emotional spheres causes nervous stress in Pisces, against which most people born under this sign are powerless. The mental makeup of these people opens up access to obsession, melancholy, and hopeless despair in their souls. The sign is a symbol of passive and active sympathetic principles: mediumship, the barren life of feelings, on the one hand, and active manifestation, the ideal of which is the commandment “Love your neighbor as yourself,” on the other. A distinctive feature of Pisces is their ability to pass all impressions through consciousness. Pisces are traditionally considered to be devoid of self. Under the influence of compassion, they are able to sacrifice themselves for the sake of others. However, such selflessness is largely limited to the realm of feelings.
Compassion is born in Pisces at the sight of the suffering of people around them. However, Pisces experience complete indifference to all tragic events and facts occurring somewhere beyond their attention. Experiencing tragic events that took place in history is more typical of the antagonist of Pisces - Virgo (a brilliant example: the stigmata of the nun Katharina Emmerich with the conjunction of the Sun and Neptune in Virgo). Pisces experiences are momentary. Living with feelings that dominate reason, Pisces suffer from the selfishness of the people around them. The self-sacrifice of Pisces is blind. Rarely wondering how appropriate and necessary their intervention and help is, Pisces often become victims of deception and extortion. The pronounced egoism of Pisces manifests itself in the sphere of eroticism and sex. However, unlike Scorpio and Capricorn, this egoism is more characteristic of Pisces’ personal sympathies than direct erotic experiences. Unlike Virgo, Pisces treat their sexual partner as their property, jealously guarding it. Since neither intellectual capabilities nor logical thought are able to save Pisces from deep disappointments, they will never be able to free themselves from the shackles of their small “I”, gradually becoming a victim of their own “Ego”, the dominance of which they are not able to overthrow. Despite the fact that Pisces do not allow themselves to be unfaithful, such a life path often ends for them in hopeless melancholy and suicide.
Pisces are distinguished by a strong attachment to material wealth, which is a consequence of the inability to improve in the Spirit and live in the future. The future is hidden from Pisces and therefore causes unaccountable fear. Pisces tend to live for today, and therefore selfish concerns about their own well-being form the center of their life interests. Those born under this sign have sufficient capabilities in the field of eroticism, are resilient and almost inexhaustible if they have a suitable partner. Not prone to perversion and abstinence. Their erotic life is characterized by uniformity and rhythm. Unlike Scorpio, the erotic beginning of Pisces is inextricably linked with the lover or beloved. However, in the absence of a worthy partner, the erotic principle does not bother them at all. For representatives of this sign, love and eroticism cannot be imagined without the material foundations of existence: they are never left for a moment by caring about a happy marriage and the future of a family that can only be thought of as having many children. However, the initial target setting is: nest construction - happiness of the future family - sexual productivity. - in the second half of life it fades and comes to naught. The erotic principle of this sign is not characterized by either the desire to achieve high ideals, like Aries and Leo, or pronounced impulsiveness, like Taurus and Capricorn - it moves linearly on a plane, intertwined with love and care, self-sacrifice and devotion.
Traditionally it is believed that the sign should govern the feet, but it mainly affects the metabolism in the body. Affected Pisces can lead to disturbances in developmental processes, fat deposits, the formation of internal tumors, and deformity.
The chemical compound corresponding to the sign of Pisces is silicon, a deficiency or excess of which in the body of those born under this sign can lead to hair loss, connective tissue diseases, the formation of ulcers (furunculosis), gout, kidney diseases, the formation of stones, eye diseases and even complete loss of vision.
In achieving goals and fulfilling desires, Pisces will be favored by stones associated with the Zodiac constellation dominant at the time of their birth: alexandrite, red coral, aquamarine, sapphire.
Stones of the constellation opposite Pisces (Virgo stones), being in dissonance with their nature, can destroy well-being and life: emerald, jasper, chalcedony, garnets.
The ancients believed that the happiest talisman for Pisces in April, May and September would be sapphire, and in October - aquamarine.
