LEO SEASON:

(Jul 23- Aug 22)

Happy birthday, Leo! It’s your time to shine this month.

You are a fixed, fire sign—outgoing, proud, and ambitious. There is a regal air about you which comes from your own sense of importance. This is not conceit, however. You honestly believe you have a right to be here and a right to be seen. Often, you are motivated by thoughts of wanting to make the world a better place. Leos like people and want to see them be happy. Having people recognize your underlying noble intention is important to you. Leos want to be valued.

As a Leo, you are willing to work hard to achieve success and the good things in life. You can apply yourself to any task and, with determination, see it through to the end. At the same time, Leos can bask in down-time appreciating the luxuries they have earned. Think about how a lion focuses its full energy on the hunt, feasts on the kill, then naps.   

Leos are idealists; traditional and loyal. Being a fixed sign, you tend to cling to people and situations longer than most. Although you often appear confident to those around you, you are rather humble and likely to blame yourself when things go wrong. You thrive on social interactions and use your discretion to choose your activities. Leos are known for their outgoing, friendly, and polite manners. They exclude no one.  

Symbol:

Your symbol is the Lion.

The symbol comes from the stellar constellation the sign corresponds to. From Greek mythology, the Lion was associated with the story of Hercules defeating a lion in a heroic battle. The lion came to represent victory, courage, and pride.   

Ruler:

Your ruler is the Sun.

The Sun represents the self and your way of being. Associated with vitality, energy, and your ability to shine, the sun rules your core identity.

Leos are secure in their identity and recognize that personal power is key to who they are.

CANCER SEASON!

(June 21- July 22)

Happy birthday, Cancer! It’s your turn to shine this month.

You are a cardinal, water sign—an initiator, intuitive, and nurturing.

Home and family are important to you. Cancer people are emotional and sensitive beings who become deeply attached to people. Your intuitive and sentimental nature allows you to empathize with others and their pain. Cancers can be difficult to get to know since they often like to keep parts of themselves hidden, especially aspects of their personal lives.

Cancers are subject to the changing emotional patterns created by moon cycles. The world may seem like a harsh place until significant learning and coping strategies have been learned to deal with the realities of life. Cancers are very sensitive as children and may need extra care and protection.

You tend to avoid conflict when you can. However, known for your loyalty—especially going to great lengths to fight for those you love, your real mission is to learn to stand up for yourself. You find personal happiness surrounded by a loving family in a comfortable home. Your sign teaches that the unseen world of emotions matters.    

Symbol:

Your symbol is the Crab. The crab appears in a Greek legend as Karkinos, who is rewarded by Hera and placed in the heavens to shine forever. A crab has a hard shell that protects it. The association with the symbol of the crab allows for a protective shield for Cancer’s vulnerable emotional self.       

Ruler:

Your ruler is the moon.

The moon is associated with emotion. Cancers are animated with powerful and constantly changing emotions.

TAURUS SEASON:

(Apr. 20-May 20)

Happy birthday Taurus! It’s your turn to shine this month.

You are a fixed, earth sign—tenacious, reliable, and sensual. Being practical and well-grounded, Taurus enjoys seeing the fruits of its labors. While slow to anger, you will defend what you have worked hard to obtain. You are at home in the material world surrounded by beauty and pleasure. Taste and touch are important senses to you. Because you tend to be conservative and unwavering in your approach, Taurus is considered to be one of the most dependable signs of the zodiac.

Having an innately strong sense of responsibility, your determination and commitment may make you appear stubborn. However, Taurus generally brings a realistic, well-grounded perspective to its endeavors that can ultimately prove highly successful. You can commit to long-term projects and have a knack for making money. Beware that the desire for money doesn’t rule your life.

You can act as a stabilizing force in times of conflict by bringing a rational perspective. As a fixed sign, Taurus does not like change. Criticism is difficult for you. You are very loyal in relationships and sensitive to the feelings of others. The negative side of Taurus can be an overattachment to the material world (money-making, status, titles). This can lead to actions that overprotect people or things that have been acquired. 

Symbol:

Your symbol is the Bull.

Taurus is represented by the bull who is known for its strength, tenacity, and power. The bull is happy to graze in the field by itself but once it’s disturbed, it won’t hesitate to charge. This symbol shows how Taurus is slow to action but will take it forcefully when necessary.

Ruler:

Your ruler is Venus. Venus governs love, beauty, and money. Venus bestows Taureans with a romantic, sensitive, and sensual nature. Material benefits also gratify you.

ARIES SEASON!

Happy birthday Aries! It’s your turn to shine this month.

You are a cardinal, fire sign— passionate, independent, and competitive. Aries know themselves and have a strong sense of self-worth. Leadership comes naturally. Possessing personal magnetism, you often attract others to projects and causes without much effort. Many Aries are physically active incorporating sports into their lives. 

As the first sign in the zodiac, Aries are newborns in a sense. Interestingly, Aries retain their youthful nature even as they age. Often more trusting or naïve than others, you will also tend to forgive quickly.

Aries are known for being adventurous, outgoing, and daringly bold. The negative side of Aries can be a reckless impulsiveness where consequences are not thought out or considered. There may also be a tendency to commit too fast to projects and not finish what is started. 

Symbol:

Your symbol is the ram with large, curved horns. The ram represents Aries unyielding determination.  

Ruler:

Your ruler is Mars. Mars was the Roman god of war. Mars is also associated with virility and fertility.    

Mar’s energy is masculine and is associated with the physical. Aries tends toward impulsiveness. You hold strong opinions, crave adventure, and love competition.
