The signs of zodiac

GEMINI rules the nervous system, shoulders, lungs, arms, hands and fingers. Gemini is prone to carpal tunnel syndrome, anxiety problems, smoking-related illnesses, breathing issues.

Personality Profile:

The Gemini Sun is a chameleon, which makes their personality hard to describe since it changes all the time. Those born under the sign of the "Twins" have at least two personalities, but often many more. Their insatiable curiosity keeps them learning new things, and this makes many of them like walking encyclopedias of knowledge.

You might hear the laughter of Gemini Suns before you see them, since they’re always finding something absurd to giggle over. They’re great wits and their interest in people often puts them in the role of social ice breaker.

Those with Sun in Gemini might be hard to pin down, but if you accept this shape-shifting quality, they’re excellent friends. This can even be true in a relationship, where they need an intellectual rapport with their mate. The ideal companions for them are those that think at their same speed of light, and don’t tie them up in one dull topic.

They need a certain kind of space to grow, and those close to them don’t try to hold on too tightly. The Gemini knows that the world is vast and full of endless fascinations to explore. If the door is open in a relationship for them to come and go at will, they’ll prove their own brand of loyalty over time.

The Gemini needs to be able to reinvent themselves many times and to follow the threads of inspiration wherever they lead. This can make them seem restless and inconsistent – another name for it is flaky. They’re always called the dilettante of the Zodiac because they’ll try anything once, and usually do! But once the Gemini finds a subject through that is worthy of that incredible kaleidoscopic mind, a deeper mastery can be sought and achieved.

The Gemini is a charmer and a clown. And often they wear a silly grin, as if they get the cosmic joke that all is well and it’s okay to sample everything from the smorgasbord of life.

CANCER rules the breasts, chest and stomach. Cancer can have big digestion problems, and struggles with weight.
Famous People with Sun in Cancer:
Nikola Tesla, Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep, Robin Williams, Bill Cosby, Nelson Mandela, Princess Diana, Frida Kahlo, Tom Cruise, Rufus Wainwright, Donald Sutherland, the Dalai Lama, Liv Tyler, Marianne Williamson, Willem Dafoe, Harrison Ford, Tobey McGuire, Deborah Harry, George Michael, Jerry Hall, Kathy Bates, Dan Ackroyd, Pamela Anderson, Selma Blair, Jessica Simpson, Lindsay Lohan, Fiona Shaw, Daniel Radcliffe, Jeff Beck, Geoffrey Rush, Ringo Starr
Personality Profile:

Those with the Sun in Cancer have a changeable nature, which makes them something of an enigma, even with those closest to them. They’re ruled by the Moon, and are similarly known to glow brightly one moment, and hide their faces the next. A highly emotional sign, they can sink into a mood and fully inhabit it, so that it seems to permeate the atmosphere around them.

The Cancer imagination is so vivid that it’s like they’re watching home movies inside their heads. For them, every life experience can be replayed again and again in Technicolor, and the same internal landscape revisited. This is the raw material for both creative genius, and the tendency to get stuck in emotional eddies. And because they're psychic sponges, they need plenty of space to unravel the little dramas of the day, or they’ll get cranky.

The Cancer has a tender heart, but you might not see it at first behind the cool exterior. Once you’re allowed inside the circle of trust, you’ll start to know why they’re called the “mother” of the Zodiac. Both men and women of this sign have an instinctive nurturing side that endears them to those they love. The Crab’s claws hold tight, though, and often they have trouble letting go of relationships and situations.

The stealth approach of the Cancer Sun often takes people by surprise, and many have been underestimated. They’ll protect their sensitivity by going after what they want indirectly, which can be seen as passive. But try to take advantage of their gentle nature, and you’ll soon be put in your place. Once crossed, the Cancer holds a grudge to infinity, so it’s hard to win back their trust.

Above all, the Cancer wants a sense of belonging, and an intimate home life. Once committed, they’ll prove to be the ultimate family man or woman, and likely never stray too far from the nest.

LEO rules the heart and spine. If Leo doesn't follow passion and know joy, there can be heart disease.
Famous People with Sun in Leo:
Madonna, Bill Clinton, Jennifer Lopez, Sean Penn, Alfred Hitchcock, Dustin Hoffman, Melanie Griffith, John Stamos, Eric Bana, Tony Bennett, Lucille Ball, Robert De Niro, Steve Martin, Joe Strummer, Laurence Fishburne, Antonio Banderas, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Robert Redford, Ben Affleck, Mick Jagger, Kyra Sedgwick, Billy Bob Thornton, Martha Stewart, Debra Messing, Helen Mirren, Carl Jung, Kate Beckinsale, Angela Bassett, Kevin Spacey, Martin Sheen, Robert Plant
Personality Profile:

At first, it’s hard not to like those with the Sun in Leo with their open hearted, friendly ways. They often enter a room as a radiant presence that causes everyone to take notice, and are skilled at “working” a crowd for best effect. As a friend, they have a knack for mining a buried dream, polishing it to a shine again, and making anything seem possible.

There’s a public confidence with the Leo Sun that other signs only dream of, which gives them free reign to fully express their creative and social selves. Whether they end up in civil service or on a Broadway stage, chances are they’ll have an audience. When standing proudly before adoring fans (or co-workers), they’re casting out warmth that has a palpable power to win hearts and minds.

The Sun in Leo has a hard time with the mundane, and will be drawn to colorful careers and dramatic relationships. While some people shrink at the idea of dating around, the Leo considers it a time to play and enjoy the game of romance. And it’s not unusual for a Lion on the market to have a few kettles on the stove.

After getting to know a Leo, you might discover that they’re very loyal, but only to themselves. You can come up against severe resistance if trying to bend the will of a Leo for the sake of a relationship. Their pride leads to the reputation of having a super-sized Ego, and being a difficult Diva type. But in the end, their stubborn self-regard elicits widespread respect, since so many of them grab the gusto and achieve their loftiest goals.

The signs of zodiac

What is the Zodiac?
If you could observe the motion of the Sun against the stars for an entire year, it would appear to trace out a large circle in the sky that we call the "ecliptic". This circle also happens to be the plane of the Earth's orbit around the Sun. The zodiac is a thin band of the sky on either side of the ecliptic. The word "zodiac" literally means "circle of life", since most of the zodiac signs are animals or people.

ARIES is the sign of the Warrior, and the Aries Sun can rise to the challenge of any battle. Sometimes they go too far and scorch those they love with hurtful words said in the heat of the moment. They quickly forgive and forget, but often deal with the fall out of their brusque demeanor.

Famous People with Sun in Taurus:
Cate Blanchette, Uma Thurman, Daniel Day-Lewis, Cher, Al Pacino, Renee Zellweger, Gabriel Byrne, Jessica Lange, Queen Elizabeth II, Martha Graham, George Clooney, Audrey Hepburn
Personality Profile:

Those with the Sun in Taurus can be the most down-to-Earth of the signs, so naturally they’re the ones reveling in earthly pleasures. Their sensuality is legendary, whether they’re cooking up a sumptuous feast in the kitchen or turning on the tantalizingly slow charm in the bedroom.

Sun in Taurus seems more firmly rooted in the physical world than the other signs, and so, can be as immovable as a mountain. It’s hard to get a Taurus to rush into anything, which can be frustrating to everyone else. But once a decision has been made, it’s usually a sound one. And that same stubborn deliberateness keeps Taurus fixed on a goal, long after others have given up.

They’re the “builders” of the Zodiac, and to use that analogy, they want to see all the blueprints of a project before going forward. But on their watch, you can guarantee that no buildings – or relationships -- will fall down due to flimsy construction.

Big motivations for Taurus are a desire for material and emotional security. This sets them on a path to find a partner or career for the long haul. They’ll stay put where they are and carefully cultivate a stable, deeply rooted life. On the down side, this can cause them to linger in a job or with a mate that they’ve outgrown.

Sun in Taurus is easy going until truly mad, at which time you’ll see the raging Bull in action. Lurking within every serene Taurus is the potential for a seething rage that re-establishes a sense of order by force. Respect them and allow them to take their sweet time doing things, and all will be well.
