OCTOBER 24-NOVEMBER 22
The qualities of Scorpio must be channeled positively to prevent jealousy and resentfulness from leading to inner dissatisfaction that can badly mar its subjects’ characters.
Scorpio has the reputation for being the sexiest of the 1Z Zodiac signs.
Like most popular astrological beliefs, this is often unjustified. Scorpios need sexual fulfillment, but their energy can be expressed in many other ways.
Pluto, the sign’s ruling planet, underlines a characteristic sense of purpose. For Scorpios to be psychologically fulfilled, every single day must have its own full and demanding schedule.
Traditional groupings
As you read through this book you will come across references to the elements and the qualities, and to positive and negative, or masculine and feminine signs. The firstfire, earth, air, and water signs. The second, the qualities, divides the Zodiac into cardinal, fixed, and mutable signs. The final grouping consists of positive and negative, or masculine and feminine signs. Each Zodiac sign is associated with a combination of components from these groupings, all of which add different characteristics to it.
Scorpio characteristics
The sign is of the fixed quality, which indicates stubbornness - something of a contradiction in terms when one thinks of the ebb and flow of water, the Scorpio element. The sign is also feminine and negative, which signifies introversion. There is a traditional association between Scorpio and dramatic deep shades of red and maroon.
Scorpios often have incisive minds, and sometimes a great desire to get to
The Zodiac Wheel
The relationship between each 'Zodiac sign and the traditional astrological groupings is made clear within the Zodiac ashed. As you read through this book you will also discover references to polar, or opposite signs, and these, too. can be easily worked out by referring to the wheel.
Fairly often, it takes a very great leap of the imagination to see any definite likeness between the “shape” of some constellations and the 12 different Zodiac symbols that have come to be associated with them.
A case does, perhaps, exist for saying that the constellation of Scorpio has a tail that resembles a scorpion’s.
In the case of Scorpio, however, the obscure link between its Zodiac symbol and the pattern in the stars that constitutes the Scorpio constellation is quite hard to explain.
Evidence suggests that the Scorpio symbol initially had no link with a constellation. A scorpion-man, apparently not based on any group ofimage on many Babylonian boundary stones. On the majority of these boundary stones, he is depicted with a scorpion’s tail, and drawing a bow, as though he were a combination of the figures for Scorpio and Sagittarius, the Archer. This scorpion figure appeared in Babylon at least 1,000 years before he finally took his place in the Egyptian Zodiacs that were created in the ancient cities of Oenderah and Esna, as the image we know today.
Orion and Eos
Manilius, the Roman writer who, in the first century B.C. set down several astrological myths, suggested
connected with Orion. A Greek giant (it was said that his stature was so great that he could walk on the bottom of the sea without getting his head wet), hunter, and the handsomest man alive, he was by no means impervious to female charms.
When the dawn-goddess Kos, an inveterate collector of handsome young men, invited him to bed, he happily accepted the invitation. But Orion bragged of the conquest and also boasted that he was so great a hunter that he would exterminate all of the wild beasts.
The God Apollo, responsible for guarding herds, therefore persuaded Gaia, the Karth goddess, to send a giant scorpion with impenetrable armor to sting him to death.
Artemis’s mistake Some variations of this myth say that it succeeded, others that Orion tried to escape by swimming out to sea, only to be accidentally shot by Artemis, the goddess of the hunt and Apollo's sister. Artemis, who, unsurprisingly, was very attracted to Orion, actually fired her arrow in an attempt to kill the scorpion that was molesting him. Being a magnificent shot, she struck the black head that she saw bobbing in the water with her

first arrow. Tragically, however, her target turned out to be Orion's head, rather than the scorpion, and the hunter died instantly.
According to this latter version of the story, the grief-stricken Artemis then placed Orion as a constellation among the stars, where he is eternally pursued by the giant scorpion. The constellation of Orion, incidentally, sets in the sky just as the constellation of Scorpio rises.Certain herbs, spices, flowers, trees, gems, metals, and

Your determination is usually evident in your stance. You stand with your head jutting forward in a sleuth-like manner, as though you are peering through some fascinating keyhole.
Thie body
There are two distinct Scorpio body types. 'The first is heavy, giving the impression of a certain world-weariness, as if the individual has been around for a long time, and enjoyed every minute of it. The other is very lean and wiry, probably as a result of slogging it out in a health club, and burning up all that Scorpio energy. In general, Scorpios are rarely above medium height, and some can be ’' ’ ios can
become very buxom if they gain weight, but they rarely lose their figures or become any less active. They tend to swing their hips as they walk.
The face
A typical Scorpio has a fairly large forehead, and deep-set, piercing eyes. (Comparisons are often drawn with the eagle, a bird that is connected with this sign. The chin is usually well formed, unless the individual is overweight, and the mouth is often extremely sensual and full lipped. A typical Scorpio will have somewhat large ears, high cheekbones, a full neck, and a wide, strong jaw. Many Scorpios have strong, but often rather coarse hair.The Scorpio stance

that has your headjutting forward as if
peering through a keyhole.
Style
Leather and the color black are popular among Scorpios, even when they are not particularly fashionable. You will probably favor an image that enhances sexiness, and if this is not overdone it works well. Many Scorpios like wearing tight jeans, leather trousers, and severely plunging necklines; not everyone is suited to each of these.
The texture of your clothing may be very important to you. Scorpios usually like the smoothness of satin and pure silk. Velvet is also popular. Any sharp, or remotely coarse material, such as wool, will probably hold no appeal for you.
On formal occasions Scorpios usually look extremely smart in somewhat severe clothes. You will not submerge your personality by dressing conventionally. All that has to be done is for you to study how to make fashion work for you. You will instinctively want to exploit your own personal image as far as you possibly can, and there is no reason why you should not do so.
Having a strong, passionate belief in whatever you do will lead to a full expression of the remarkable resources of both physical and emotional energy that you possess, which are characteristic of all Scorpios.
At work
It must be said that Scorpios with no clear objective in life, who are uninvolved in their work or in any other activity worthwhile for them, can be difficult, uncooperative, stubborn, and impervious to reason.
In all, they will be a complete pain to the people around them.
It is worth remembering that while Pluto, Scorpio’s ruling planet, can enable its subjects to overcome obstacles, it can also encourage a host of negative tendencies, for instance slyness, cruelty, and an urge to be somewhat overly critical. These negative characteristics, which can sometimes constitute a fairlvconsiderable force, may make Scorpios illogically jealous of other people's achievements, especially their partners'. It may even come to the point where they will start to act in an underhanded and vindictive fashion, even scheming toward their rivals' downfall, and often giving way to outbursts of unpleasant, illogical rage when others offer help or advice.
Your attitudes
When all is well with you, however, you will know exactly what it is that you want to do in life, and will certainly see to it that whatever this is gets done. When it is properly fulfilled, this powerful and demanding motivation will lead to your finding that vital sense of inner satisfaction upon which so much of life can rest. The urge to move ambitiously forward will then follow from it, encouraging you to better and greater achievements. You will no
doubt value your friends highly and are likely to strive very hard in order to make your relationships work.
The overall picture Scorpios tend to fling themselves straight into projects, whether these involve starting a business venture or embarking on demanding intellectual study. You will probably work veryhard on any project for some time and achieve many of the goals that you set for yourself. '1'hen, for no apparent reason, you will give up the whole venture and start again from the bottom of another hill.
Having said all of this, for the most part, Scorpios enjoy life, living it to the full and encouraging their friends and loved ones to do the same.lor ARE HAPPY DOING HARD WORK, PERHAPS INVOLVING DETAILED

Health
Scorpio can. in a number of ways, be considered the most powerful sign of the Zodiac. Its subjects are often fortunate enough to possess tremendous resources of both physical and emotional energy. In order for you to be both psychologically whole and in the best physical shape, you must be prepared to shape your life in such a way that both of these areas manage to find some form of positive expression.
Your diet
For most Scorpios, food is something that has to be enjoyed. You may, for instance, like a lot of rich food and wine, and dieting may prove to be difficult. You might benefit from supplementing your diet with the cell salt kali muriaticum (Kali. Mur.).
Taking care
When lacking any real objective in life, or suffering from a lack of physical exercise, a Sun sign Scorpio will become discontented, depressed, and unwell. Brooding on the situation is only likely to make matters worse. All Scorpios must realize that they need demanding projects in life, of both an ll intellectual and physical nature. You require goals toward which you can aim and direct your abundance of energy, and if all is well vou will achieve them.
Astrology and the body For many centuries it was impossible to practiee medicine without a knowledge of astrology. In European universities, medical training included information on how planetary positions would affect the
administration of medicines, the bleeding of patients, and the right time to pick herbs and make potions. Each Zodiac sign rules a particular part of the body, and early medical textbooks always included a drawing that illustrated the point.SCORPIO .4 T

long-term relationship. The worst Scorpio fault is jealousy, and if this occurs, it can really spoil your happiness. Being aware of this tendency can help to counter it.
As a lover
Despite the traditional emphasis on Scorpio sexuality, it is wrong to think that all members of this sign are always on the rampage, moving from one conquest to the next.
Much of a Scorpio's abundant resources of emotional and physical energy are oriented toward their sex life. I lowevcr, once you have found a responsive mate, with an equal level of need, fulfillment is not hard to find, "l our sexual needs will take their place in a balanced life.

Types of Scorpio lover
Scorpios are capable of expressing desire in one of at least

suspecting that there is something “dirty” about sex. People in this group are very discriminating, can be critical, and must be helped to relax if their inhibition is not to spoil things.
A second group is romantic, with a liking for glamorous settings.
Members of this group usually en joy a slow build up to love making, and are probably eager to enter into a permanent relationship, but may be indecisive about entering a long-term commitment.
Another group consists of those who may be called “pure Scorpios.” 'These people are generally capable of loving both deeply and passionately, but must learn to guard against jealousy and emotional outbursts. A

our ideal home would be placed on the edge of an idyllic lake. However, you will probably have to compromise over this, so some form of water garden, or perhaps a well, might provide a pleasant alternative. You are also likely to feel very much at home in the city. One important factor to consider might be the need for privacy that many Scorpios have. A private study could be the answer.

black is popular. Comfort is important, so while settees may be bold in appearance, they will actually be soft and seductive.
You will spend a great deal of money on furnishings, and are unlikely to take risks when choosing items that will have to be lived with for a long period of time. A classic Barcelona chair is very popular, combining as it does style, tradition, and a smart, expensive elegance. Scorpios are very image conscious in their choice of furniture as well as their clothes.
Soft furnishings
The Scorpio color is basically deep crimson, which is the color of Pluto, the Scorpio ruling planet, and the overall effect of your furnishings can tend to be rather dark. It will, however, be very rich, and there will be no lack of
cushions to enhance comfort. These will often match the upholstery itself or be printed in an exotic pattern such as paisley. Dark shades of heavy satin can be popular, because texture is often important for Scorpios. Rugs will have a heavy pile, and curtains will be well lined and contribute to a somewhat seductive atmosphere.
Decorative objects A visitor’s eye will be drawn very quickly to the decorative objects that you choose. They will be very striking and will make definite statements. Your choice of paintings will be dramatic and colorful; Gauguin is often a popular choice because of his sensual colors and subject matter. You

Scorpio and Aries are both very powerful Zodiac signs, bestowing on their subjects a high level of emotional and physical energy. Your Scorpio intensity is heightened by your Arien sense of immediacy and instinct to be first.
Self-expression
With this Sun and Moon combination you will not be prepared to allow opponents to get the better of you. Inner fulfillment is essential to you, and your way of achieving it is to fill every day with work. Avoid timefilling jobs, or a career in which you have no real interest but pursue solely for money. If you have a job that is dull, make sure that your leisure hours are challenging and lively.
Romance
You have a high emotional level, and are very passionate. This passion will find its best expression within your
relationships. You will possess a somewhat less smoldering intensity than many Sun sign Scorpios and will approach love and sex with an uncomplicated enthusiasm.
The worst Arien fault is selfishness. If anyone accuses you of this, listen to them, as they will probably be right.
Because of a tendency to act prematurely, you may feel inclined to deepen an emotional relationship too early. When this appears likely to happen, allow the critical faculties of your Scorpio Sun extra expression.
Your well-being
The Arien body area is the head, and you may therefore suffer from headaches, perhaps because of the way other people are acting. On the other hand, they may sometimes stem from slight kidney upsets. Because Aries promotes hastiness, you might be rather accident-prone and could often incur minor cuts and bruises.
Planning ahead
Your Scorpio business sense is spiced with the Aricn spirit of enterprise. Should you start a business venture, you will find it not only enjoyable, but also probably very financially rewarding. You are shrewd and capable with money, but may need to stop and think twice before investing, since you could be a little too enthusiastic about schemes that seem solid, but may in fact be hollow. If vou give vourself time to think, vour
Scorpio shrewdness will come into its own and you will manage to avoid coming to grief.
Parenthood
You will make an energetic and lively parent and will expect a lot from your children. You will discipline them in a positive way and will not find it difficult to keep up with their concerns and opinions. This should avoid any problems with the generation gap.
Everyone, in one way or another, expresses elements of their polar or opposite sign: the sign that lies across the Zodiac circle from their Sun sign. For Scorpios, this is Taurus and, as the Moon was in that sign when you were horn, this polarity is emphasized in an interesting way.
Self-expression
The Moon is, traditionally, “well placed” in Taurus. This means that its psychological effect on you is somewhat above average.
In order for you to develop your full potential and live life in a satisfying and rewarding way, you need great emotional and financial security.
When you have it, you flourish and are capable of great achievements. Without it, your lifestyle suffers.
Even more than many Sun sign Scorpios, you must always have an objective in view and should carve your way toward it constructively.
Romance
Both Scorpio and Taurus are of the fixed quality and, as a result, you can be rather stubborn. Taurus, like Scorpio, is a passionate sign. It will therefore increase the smoldering intensity that your Sun sign gives you.
You will express your feelings in a warm and affectionate way, and are capable of giving great sexual enjoyment. However, the worst Taurean fault is possessiveness and, if this is ignited by Scorpio jealousy, you could well have problems. Be aware that these negative emotions could spoil your relationships.
Your need for emotional security could cause you to create something of a claustophobie atmosphere, which some partners might resent.
Your well-being
The Taurean body area covers the neck and throat. Colds will almost certainly settle in that area, so take
eare of it, especially in w inter. Taurus likes good food, and so does Scorpio. Living it up can therefore mean considerable weight gain, unless you have a high metabolic rate.
Moderation and exercise will help.
Planning ahead You will be good with money and have a great instinct for investment. Therefore your bank balance and portfolio of stocks, however small, will grow to your satisfaction. However, you certainly love luxury and willprobably be able to cope with your finances without professional advice.
Parenthood
You are conventional and may be Somewhat conservative in outlook. Be careful: your children could accuse you of being old-fashioned. You will work hard for them, but might be stricter than you realize. If you try to keep up with all their concerns, you should have few problems with the generation gap.
The combination of two very different signs makes for a dynamic influence on your character. Gemini is an air sign and is intellectually oriented; it therefore adds a lightness and inquisitiveness to your Scorpio Sun, which makes you intense and pushes you to get to the root of every problem.
Self-expression
When challenged in any way, you will at once respond with lively, searching questions. You will be very skeptical of every theory put to you.
It may be that you are attracted to the media, and all kinds of research could well fascinate you. You are an excellent communicator, and this can be of advantage not only in your career, but also on a personal level.
When moved, you will probably try to rationalize your emotion. By all means go in for self-analysis, but remember that in the process you canrationalize away a lot of pleasure. Like many Sun sign Scorpios, you may tend to bottle up your problems. You should not, however, suffer badly from this tendency, due to the communicative nature of your Geminian Moon.
Romance
In addition to expressing Scorpio passion and achieving sexual fulfillment, you also find it very rewarding to enjoy a high level of intellectual rapport and friendship within an emotional relationship.
It is particularly good for you to have a partner who is at least your intellectual equal, if not considerably ahead of you in this area.
Your well-being
Scorpios tend to go whole hog, liking a lot of everything. If you smoke, you will probably smoke heavily, and thisorgan is the lungs. You have quite a high level of nervous energy, and should aim to burn that and your Scorpio physical energy positively, in sports or through demanding exercise.
Planning ahead
You may he somewhat less skillful with money than many Sun sign Scorpios. You have a natural selling ability and are capable of organizing profitable deals. Are you, however, perhaps a little too easily attracted to get-rich-quick schemes that, in thelong run, turn into get-poor-quickly disasters? When tempted, remember to ask questions.
Parenthood
You probably find it easy to keep up with your children and enjoy discussing their opinions. At times, you could even be ahead of them and may surprise them with your knowledge of current trends. You should have few problems with the generation gap, especially if you maintain your acidic sense of humor.Because Scorpio and Cancer are both water signs, the level of your emotional energy is very high. You should always be sure that you have positive and demanding ways of expressing it. You are a powerhouse of strong feeling and. for your psychological comfort, must be intensely involved in work that you find totally rewarding.
Self-expression
Your Cancerian Moon is likely to make you very intuitive, and you have an active imagination that you should make every effort to express creatively. If this does not happen, you will worry irrationally and could spend too much time waiting for the worst to happen. Also try to recognize the fact that, perhaps as the result of your sensitivity to atmospheres and other people’s reactions, you may sometimes be prone to bouts of moodiness. Aim to keep your outlookpositive, and endeavor to be more optimistic than you may naturally be inclined to feel.
Romanee
You are a wonderfully sensual and highly sexcd lover, good at assessing your partner's needs. You are also demanding and need a partner who is not only active but also sympathetic. Watch out, though, for a tendency to “mother” your partners. This can create a rather claustrophobic atmosphere, which more freedom- loving partners may resent.
Your well-being
'The Cancerian body area covers the breasts and chest. While there is absolutely no connection between this sign and the disease that bears the same name, Cancerian women should be as diligent as all their sisters in regularly examining their breasts. To some extent the digestive system
is also Cancer-ruled and. when you are worried, you could find your stomach giving you trouble. Cancerians and Scorpios enjoy their food, which will not help. You may need strenuous exercise to keep any flab at bay.
Planning ahead
There is a fair chance that you could be something of a financial wizard. You possess Cancerian shrewdness, with the additional business acumen that springs from your Scorpio Sun. This gives you the capacity to make a lot of money, provided that you do
not give in to the Scorpio tendency to suddenly stop what you are doing and begin a new project.
Parenthood
You will enjoy the responsibilities of family life and may well be eager to have your own home and children.
You will be pretty strict with your children, which is fine. Do, however, allow them the freedom to express themselves. Avoid being sentimental and harking back to the past, when you were a child. If you get involved in your children’s interests, you will bridge the generation gap.
Your Scorpio personality is
exaggerated by the fiery emotion and energy of your Leo Moon. You have a great deal of inner strength and determination, and marvelous organizing ability. However, you should be very careful not to become autocratic and domineering.
Self-expression
Your Scorpio passion and powerful motivation are enhanced by your instinct to do your very best and to develop every hobby and interest, as well as your career, to the highest standard. The result is that you are probably very good at everything you do. You are one of the world’s workers and will like to fill every day with useful activity.
Both Scorpio and Leo are signs that are highly charged with emotion, and Leo emotion is warm, fiery, and enthusiastic. It will make you look at life in a positive, optimistic way.
Romance
Your lovemaking has style, elegance, and more than a hint of glamour, and you will see to it that your partners enjoy life as much as you do, both in and out of bed.
Both Scorpio and Leo are of the fixed quality, which means that you can be very stubborn at times. Make an effort to reassess your opinions from time to time, and never mind admitting your mistakes.
The worst Leo fault is bossiness, so be careful that this unpleasant trait does not mar your relationships.
Your well-being
The Leo body area is the spine and back, so you need exercise to keep these in good working order. A back- support chair is also an excellent idea if you work long hours at a desk.
The Leo organ is the heart, and this needs regular exercise. You may find exercise rather boring, so aim to
find a good health club, or perhaps dance or movement classes, where some of your dramatic qualities can find creative expression.
Scorpio and Leo could encourage you to have an all-too-rich diet, d ry to keep this in check; otherwise you may well put on weight.
Planning ahead
You need to earn a lot of money to cater to what are probably expensive tastes. Your financial flair and potential for success should, however, enable you to do this. You will enjoy keeping an eye on your hankstatements and seeing your money grow and will usually inv est w isely, but resist any tendency to put too many financial eggs in one basket.
Parenthood
You w ill enjoy your children, but could sometimes seem rather pompous to them, and perhaps conventional. Try to see life through their eyes, and you will avoid problems with the generation gap. If you use your lively, enthusiastic Moon qualities and are encouraging rather than critical, you will certainly win your children's love and respect.
Your water sign Sun and earth sign Moon combine well and share several complementary characteristics. Scorpio enjoys mystery and getting to the root of problems; your Virgoan Moon will encourage you to analyze them.
Self-expression
You are among the natural sleuths of the Zodiac and will therefore enjoy any kind of research. Be careful, however, that in examining the minutiae of a problem you do not miss seeing the overall pattern, and try to develop breadth of vision.
You have a great deal of common sense and a very practical approach to life. How ever, you must keep a tendency to worry under control.
Romance
The influence of Virgo is unlikely to be highly charged, emotionally. Some of your Scorpio passion will thereforebe moderated by your Moon sign. You will work hard to make your relationships work, possibly rather gradually overcoming any Yirgoan timidity in your response to sex. As your tension eases and your Scorpio Sun takes over, you will find yourself enjoying an ever-increasing richness in this sphere of your life.
Your well-being
The Virgoan organ is the stomach, and you may suffer from stomach disorders when you are worried. You need a high-fiber diet.
A Yirgoan influence brings with it a great deal of nervous energy. This can sometimes lead to a buildup of stress and tension, which may result in migraines. Try to relax. Outdoor exercise may help you. and so will talking things over with a friend. A relaxation technique such as yoga may prove to be useful, as will w alking, cvcling, and jogging.
Planning ahead
You may he far less of a big spender than many Seorpios, and will probably he good at balaneing the hooks. There is even a ehance that you eoiild feel slightly guilty whenever you are extravagant. Do your best to ensure that you do not, and enjoy yourself. In partieular, make sure that you do not hesitate when it comes to spending money on a favorite hobby, and go wild on good fabrie, materials, tools, and machines.

You will alternate between being a strict parent and a bit of a softy. Make certain that your children know where they stand with you, and you will develop an affectionate rapport.

Your objectives and ambitions are very important to you, and you get a great deal of fulfillment from pursuing them, but you should take care that you do not miss out on enjoying life - you may veer toward becoming a workaholic. Try to avoid bringing too much work home from the office.
Romance
Your powerful Scorpio emotions are calmed by your Capricornian Moon. Your reactions to situations are logical
and practical, and you are rather less likely to be emotionally moved than many Scorpios. Sometimes, you may even give the impression that you are slightly aloof.
Your approach to your love and sex life is less passionate than that of many Scorpios, and you are likely to be very faithful once committed.
Your well-being

It is unlikely that you will have a weight problem, since your Capricornian Moon has probably given you a rather lean frame, and you are possibly less attracted to heavy, rich food than is the case with many
Scorpios. The teeth are also ruled by
Capricorn, so be careful not to neglect to have regular dental checkups.
Planning ahead
You are, or have the potential to be, something of a financial w izard. Capricornians are often good at business, as are Scorpios. If you arc self-employed, you should be able to build up your business extremely well, provided you pace its development. 'The same applies if vou have cash to invest.
Parenthood
Perhaps you need to reassess your attitude to your children, since you may be far stricter than you realize. Most children thrive when thc\ have a secure structure to their lives, but try to avoid damaging put-downs. Also make sure that you have time to enjoy their company as opposed to just working hard to ensure that they have all the material needs of life. Consciously tune in to their opinions and concerns. Otherwise you might experience generation gap problems.Your Aquarian Moon enables you to approach problems in an unusual way. Your reaction to situations is usually logical, and you can detach yourself from your emotions and see any difficulties from various angles, quickly focusing on each before reaching practical and often unique conclusions.
Self-expression
Lateral thinking comes naturally to you, and colleagues and friends often have cause to be very grateful for your originality. Because both Scorpio and Aquarius are of the fixed quality, you may tend to be very stubborn at times. Be aware of this tendency; otherwise you may he accused of being willfully obstinate.
Romance
Life may not be particularly easy when you are beginning to solidify a personal relationship. You are apassionate Scorpio, but may, early on in a relationship, send out signals warning people to keep their distance.
You need sexual fulfillment as much as, or perhaps more than, anyone else. However, your independence will be important to you, and you must try to find partners who will not resent this need. You may delay a long-term commitment or marriage, which is no bad thing: take your time if you feel that you should.
Your well-being
The ankles are the Aquarian body area, and yours are likely to be vulnerable, especially if you enjoy wearing some types of fashionable shoes. The circulation is also Aquarius-ruled, so take care that you look after yours. Obviously, all exercise regimens and sporting activities are a help, and you shoul find time for them. Scorpios usual enjoy swimming and other water
sports, blit you may also be attracted to winter sports and could be particularly good at them.
Planning ahead
While Sun sign Scorpios are usually very smart about money, your originality may sometimes get the better of you, and you could end up committing yourself without due thought to some exciting but not very practical scheme that catches your imagination. Financial loss may
follow. Aim for conventionalit\ w here finance is concerned. Kxpress your originality in other ways, for example in your image or in creative work.

oth Scorpio and Pisces belong to the water element and, as a result, there is a very natural sympathy between the two signs.
Self-expression You have extremely powerful instincts and intuition, and should follow these. You also have an active imagination, and this, too, can work positively for you.

Try to avoid this by finding rewarding ways of expressing your imagination.
It may be that you have psychic ability. If you have premonitions or if strange things seem to happen to you from time to time, do not be worried. If, however, you want to develop your psychic powers, get special training from a psychic society of some kind.
and may often be swayed by your emotions. This need not be a negative trait, as long as you listen to your intuition, which will guide you in the direction that vou should take.
Romance
You will get much pleasure from your love and sex life, and can give a great deal of yourself to your partners. However, you can be easily hurt and, if this occurs, it may be because you have not faced up to reality.
Your well-being
The Piscean body area covers the feet. Yours are vulnerable, and you probably find it difficult to get really comfortable shoes.
Many people with a Piscean emphasis tend to put on weight relatively easily, and Scorpios love good food. It is better for you to discipline your eating habits than to on a crash diet.Planning ahead
Although your Scorpio Sun gives you a good basic financial sense, your Piscean Moon succeeds in removing rather a lot of it. You have such a sensitivity to suffering, and identify so strongly with it, that you may be overgenerous to charities. It could be that you also tend to lend money far too freely. Avoid this whenever possible, and remember that it is usually much better to give a few dollars to someone than to loan them money.
You should probably take financial advice when you are thinking of investing. Should you want to start abusiness, it is advisable for you to work w ith a partner, unless you feel that you really can control your Moon in Pisces weak approach to finance.

You w ill sometimes be very strict with them, and at others times may tend to spoil them. If you manage to succeed in keeping these two extremes in balance, you will be a splendid parent.

Being a Sagittarian, you should guard against restlessness, and develop a sense of purpose. This will ensure that you possess the continuity of effort required for a full expression of your potential, and thus your p s ye h o 1 og i c a 1 f u Ifill m e n t.
You are likely to be one of the explorers and travelers of the Zodiac - both in mind and in body. You are willing to take risks, but must control a gambling spirit that can occasionally get out of hand.
Traditional groupings As you read through this book you will come across references to the elements and the qualities, and to positive and negative, or masculine and feminine signs.
The first of these groupings, that of the elements, comprises fire, earth, air, and water signs. The second, that of the qualities, divides the Zodiacsigns. The final grouping is made up of positive and negative, or masculine and feminine signs. Each Zodiac sign is associated with a combination of components from these groupings, all of which contribute different characteristics to it.
Sagittarian characteristics
Being a sign of the fire element. Sagittarius bestows great natural enthusiasm upon its subjects. 'This often extends to a fondness for demanding physical or intellectual exercise. Since Sagittarius is also a positive, masculine sign, you are liable to be one of the optimistic extroverts of the Zodiac. Being of the mutable quality, Sagittarius is a “dual” sign, and its subjects are therefore versatile.
The ruling planet of Sagittarius is Jupiter, the giant of the Solar System, and a great god in Roman mythology. The Sagittarian colors are rich purples
The Zodiac Wheel
The relation ship between each 'Zodiac sign and the traditional astrological groupings is wade clear within the Z.odiac wheel. As yon read through this book yon will also discover references to polar, or opposite signs, and these, too, can be easily worked out by referring to the wheel.
The constellation of Sagittarius first seems to have been identified and named in Babylon.
Tie symbolic centaur with his bow began to appear in ancient Egypt much later than the time when he was carved on Babylonian boundary stones. The origin of the sign is, how ever, shrouded in considerable mystery, and there is no myth firmly associated with it.
Ancient Greece and Rome In ancient Greece, Sagittarius seems to have been a satyr: in particular, one called Crotus, who lived on Mount Helicon with his foster sisters, the Muses. The satyrs were attendants of the god Dionysus; they had goats' legs and the tails of horses, and w ere much given to riotous living. In those days. Sagittarius had only two legs.
Later on, Manilius. the Roman writer who in the first century B.C. set down several astrological mvths, andthe great astronomer Hipparchus saw him as a four-footed centaur. The centaurs, who were also attendants of Dionysus, lived in Thessaly. Their heads and torsos were human, but the rest of their bodies were those of horses. It seems likely that the legend of the centaurs arose around a tribe of cow herders who lived in Thessaly. Indeed, the name “centaurs" can be translated as “those who round up bulls.” Like the American cowboys, the Thessalonian herders rode on horseback when they were attending to their livestock.
In general, centaurs were thought to revel in cruelty and to indulge frequently in bouts of frenzied lechery and drunkenness.
Chiron the centaur Some astrologers like to insist that the original Sagittarius was a centaur named Chiron, who seems to have had nothing in common with the
ordinary centaurs except his body. Although the centaur was generally considered to he a barbarous beast, his human association made Chiron kindly, learned, and a good friend to many gods and heroes.
Tutor of Jason and Achilles Skilled in many arts, including that of prophesy, Chiron taught such famous heroes as Jason, who captured the Golden Fleece, and Achilles, who was killed by a fatal arrowshot to his legendary vulnerable heel during the capture of Troy. Chiron fed the young Achilles on a diet that consisted of the entrails of lions and the marrow bones of bears in order to give the boycourage, and taught him the valuable arts of riding, healing, hunting, and playing the pipes.
Chiron was an immortal but, after being accidentally injured by one of the hero Hercules's deadly poisoned arrows, he was in such profound pain, and was so afraid that his wound would never again heal, that he gave away the gift of his immortality to the suffering Prometheus, father of all the arts and sciences.
Zeus, the king of the gods, wanted so fine a creature as Chiron to be remembered. He therefore decided to set him in the sky as a constellation, bearing the same arrow that Hercules had used to defend Prometheus.SAGITTARI US

You arc likely to
possess a very firm stance, with your feet apart and your hands on your hips. You probably hold your head high, seeming to peer toward some distant horizon.
The body
The Sagittarian body is often somewhat thickset, and usually very muscular. It is, perhaps, a body designed less for office work than for sports and physical activity. There have been many great Sagittarian dancers and basketball players.
Your legs are likely to be long. The Sagittarian hips and thighs are particularly strong, but sometimes a bit too prominent, much to the annoyance of many women of the sign. If you spend all of your timefollowing intellectual pursuits, you may develop a rather roundshouldered stoop.
The face
A number of distinctive features characterize the Sagittarian face. Your hair could be wavy and thick, and perhaps a little difficult to control. A broad, open forehead is likely to enhance your generally optimistic expression, and your eyes will probably be set wide apart, beneath straight eyebrows. Your lips arc likely to be firm, and will easily break into a relaxed smile.
Style
Sagittarians often tend to cling to a “student" image, and may sport a college ring long after they are well

established in the world. You are very likely to hate wearing formal clothes and, whenever possible, will dress as casually as you possibly can. Polo- neck sweaters are very popular among Sagittarian men and women.
Clothing that permits ease of movement is advisable for you. It is, in fact, extremely important for your clothing to be comfortable, since anything restrictive will leave you feeling intolerably claustrophobic. Perhaps your clothes will be in royal blue or purple, which are favorite Sagittarian colors.
In general
Sagittarians are not too concerned about their appearance; their outlook on life usually leads them to concentrate on other, more interesting things. Even those who are fashion- minded like to choose a number of garments at one session, so that they can then forget about clothes and get on with their lives. Similarly, you will no doubt w ant to be able to put on your clothes first thing in the morning, and then not have to worryabout them again until the evening. You may be perfectly happy wearing comfortable jogging clothes or tracksuits most of the time, and they can sometimes be quite fashionable.
'The independent Sagittarian spirit does not encourage conformity. You should therefore be careful if you decide to bend the rules when, for instance, deciding what clothes to wear for work.
People of your Sun sign
sometimes seem to possess the secret of eternal youth and may appear to be perpetual students. If you are asked what you are planning for the coming months, you will almost certainly mention some study group, class, or series of lectures that you are planning to attend. If you are not the kind of person to become involved in intellectual pursuits, you will be eager to talk about the new health club that you have just joined.
At work
The duality of Sagittarius makes for an interesting influence, since it accentuates versatility. Many people of your Sun sign are likely to enjoy two quite separate occupations, or at least a rather considerable amount of variety within one.
You are often at your best expressing a number of varied talents. You may complete a task and thenturn to something that puts a very different set of demands on other skill that you might have.
Your attitudes
Sagittarians usually need to be stimulated both mentally and physically. There are, however, certain types of Sagittarian who are attracted almost exclusively to either physical or mental activities.
There are the bookish types who do not care for anything resembling physical exercise, and there are the sports fiends who enjoy participating in intense team sports, even when they are well past their prime. Both types of Sagittarian may tend to hang on to their youth.
Most Sagittarians obtain a great deal of pleasure from traveling and, if it is not possible for you to do so, you will probably turn to travel books and videos as an alternative. T on may have a flair for languages, and coulddo far worse than to invest some of your time and money in refining this particular skill.
The overall picture Sagittarian enthusiasm is usually boundless and infectious, and it is often expressed through risk-taking, often of a phvsical nature. You mustbe careful to ensure that such risks are always extremely carefully calculated. You may also enjoy taking a small gamble from time to time, and some Sagittarians may even be unlucky enough to find the idea thoroughly irresistible. If such a tendency is not controlled, it ean cause problems for weaker-minded Sagittarians.Yor WILL BE HAPPIEST IN A CAREER THAT CAN BE PLANNED IN

Sagittarians need to exploit their physical and intellectual energy. 'They have excellent resources of both, and it is a great pity if they are not fully developed. Because your outlook is generally positive and enthusiastic, you respond well when you are challenged.

somewhat heavy diet is preferred by people of this sign, weight gain can sometimes be a problem for them.
You are likely to benefit from the cell salt Kali Muriaticum (Kali Mur.), which may help prevent bronchial congestion and swollen glands.
Taking care
The Sagittarian body organ is the liver. You should therefore make an effort to learn what does and does not agree with you, and find out exactly what your food and drink limits are. It is therefore a good idea for you to always have supply of hangover remedies in the medicine cabinet; you might even develop one of your own. Restlessness can be a problem for Sagittarians. You may find it hard to really relax; a complete change of occupation usually works well in
Astrology and the body For many centuries it was not possible to practice medicine without a knowledge of astrology. In Kuropean universities, medical training included information on how planetary positions would affect the
bleeding of patients, and the right time to pick herbs and make potions. Each Zodiac sign rules a particular part of the body - from Aries (the head) to Pisces (the feet) - and textbooks always included a drawing of a “Zodiac man” (or woman) thatSAGITTARIUSAI

The Sagittarian love of challenge can be ignited if the objeet of your affeetion plays hard to get. This may be very exciting for you.
As a lover
A Sagittarian's natural enthusiasm for love and sex is very infectious, and it is not difficult for people of your Sun
sign to attract partners. Your need for your own space, and for a relationship without even a hint of claustrophobia, is very important. You really cannot bear to feel restricted, and your partners must realize this and allow you a measure of independence if the relationship is to last.
Once they have tamed their coltish attitudes, Sagittarians make very rewarding partners because of their love of life, optimism, and ability to encourage partners to pursue their own interests.
Types of Sagittarian lover
The influence of other planets encourages every Zodiac type to express love in one of Eve different ways, and it is usually fairly easy to recognize the group to which you belong. Some Sagittarians are really romantic, and go for affairs with all the memorable trimmings. They either rush intorelationships because they are a little in love with love itself, or '^8$ procrastinate because
they cannot decide which partner they should settle for. A second group loves passionately and very emotionally. I ncharacteristically, these individuals are sometimes prone to bouts of jealousy, in spite of the fact that they usually want to have the same amount of independence as that desired by their partners.
'There are also those Sagittarians who will end up loving in a truly Sagittarian manner. 'They will readily agree with the general comments that have already been made.
Others of this Sun sign will be surprisingly cool
The Sagittarian home is usually marked by a definite tendency to steer clear of anything that might result in a rather claustrophobic atmosphere. Large windows, and spacious, open-plan living are therefore given substantial priority.
F urniture
You are one of the hunters of the Zodiac, and probably love to visit street markets and antique shops in search of bargains that suit your taste and practical needs. Sagittarians usually choose furniture that is not particularly adventurous, but that is built to last. While you like to be reasonably comfortable, space for
and places to keep the articles of sports equipment that are so much a part of the Sagittarian lifestyle are just as important, or perhaps even more so.
Soft furnishings
The cushions in your home may appear somewhat crumpled and well used, but they will invite people to sit down. Many items, such as oriental rugs, will have originated overseas, and the fabric for the curtains will sometimes have a rather unusual design. Sagittarians often favor the strong, energetic, perennial designs of William Morris, which re fleet Sagittarian energy and a liking for warm color. Dark blue and ular, and those of thisBooks

Decorative objects Because most Sagittarians have lively minds, the decorative items that enhance your home, and certainly the overall effect, will often arouse interest and intellectual discussion among those who come to visit. The pictures that you choose are often open landscapes, since Sagittarians cannot bear anything claustrophobic.
There will almost certainly be interesting, rather than purely beautiful, travel souvenirs. Many Sagittarians enjoy playing the guitar, and one may be given an honored place in your home. -
Either books or sporting trophies, or perhaps even both, may be present, depending on whether you are a bookish or an athletic type of Sagittarian. There may also be a fair variety of objects scattered around your home that represent your own religious faith, such as a crucifix or some kind of icon.

Some aspects of your character may have been tempered by a number of strong influences in your birth chart. Otherwise you are likely to be a lively, extroverted person.
Self-expression
You are always ready to accept daunting challenges at a moment’s notice. In fact, you often throw yourself in at the deep end, without thinking about the consequences.
Perhaps even more than most Sagittarians, you have breadth of vision and the ability to grasp the essentials of a situation. But having done so, the details may defeat you; therefore either make sure that you leave them to someone else, or discipline yourself to cope with them.
Romance
Your fiery enthusiasm for love and sex should ensure that you obtain a lot of pleasure out of this sphere of your
life. You may not always take your relationships too seriously, since your passion has a lighthearted air.
Be aware that the worst Arien fault is selfishness, and that you may sometimes react to your lovers in a somewhat selfish way. You certainly need a partner who can match your abundant Sagittarian and Arien emotional and physical energy, and sheer enjoyment of love and sex.
Your well-being
The Arien body area is the head, and you could be rather prone to headaches. Perhaps these are due to your frustration at other people’s incompetence or their slowness to respond to you. Alternatively, you may suffer from a slight kidney problem. If your headaches persist, get a medical checkup.
Anyone with an Arien influence may, because of a tendency to be too hasty, be somewhat accident-prone.Minor cuts and burns, even tender benders, can easily occur. An awareness of this tendency will help you to combat it. You are pretty energetic, physically, and should have a fairly fast metabolism.
Planning ahead
Sagittarians love a gamble, and with an Arien Moon this tendency is exacerbated. While you could well enjoy investment, your enterprising spirit may be marred by this gamblin;
streak. Therefore resist seduetive schemes that may well be far less rewarding than they sound, and take professional advice in this sphere.
Parenthood
You make an excellent parent and will be as young at heart as your children, encouraging them greatly in all their interests. You should have tew generation gap problems. In tact, the reverse may be true; you might have to remind yourself of your age.
The Moon is, according to traditional astrology, “well placed” in Taurus. As a result, its influence on you is rather stronger than it is on other Sagittarians.
Self-expression
Like Sagittarius. Taurus is an earth sign. It prevents you from taking premature action, and instills caution, common sense, and even a good measure of patience - not a quality that one naturally associates with Sun sign Sagittarians. Your response to most situations is not to get immediately involved. You will give yourself time to assess a situation before allowing your natural verve and enthusiasm, springing from your Sagittarian Sun sign, to emerge.
Romance
You have the warm affection usually associated with Taurus, and it is this that will first emerge when you
develop an emotional relationship. Your Taurcan Moon adds a great deal of natural charm to your personality, while removing nothing of the sexiness of your Sagittarian Sun.
Bear in mind that the worst Taurean fault is possessiveness. As a Sagittarian with an instinctive love of freedom, you detest this unacceptable trait, but your Moon can edge you toward it. Recognize the fact, and watch for the signs.
Your well-being
The Taurean body area is the throat, and you probably find that colds start there. You may also have trouble with your tonsils.
Those with a Taurean emphasis tend to put on weight easily, often because they have a sweet tooth. Sagittarians like rich, hearty food, so you may need to keep a constant calorie cheek if you want to retain your good figure. Do not let the
relaxed attitude of your Taurean Moon get the better of you where exercise is concerned. Sagittarians must never stagnate.
Planning ahead You are cautious and have good business sense. As a result you can cope with money far better than many Sun sign Sagittarians. Even if you do succumb to your Sagittarian gambling instinct, the chances are that you will not fritter away more money than you can afford to lose.
Parenthood
As a parent, you no doubt get things just about right, and will discipline your children in precisely the right way, so that they know exactly where they stand with you.
The power of your Sagittarian Sun makes you an optimistic and very encouraging parent, and your children thrive on your constructive comments and warm affection. You do not find it difficult to keep up with their ideas and are unlikely to incur problems with the generation gap.THE MOOT

E
ach of us is, in one way or another, likely to express the attributes of our polar, or opposite. Zodiac sign. Each sign has its partner across the horoscope: for Sagittarians, this is Gemini and, because the Moon was in Gemini when you were born, this polarity is emphasized in an interesting and powerful way.
Self-expression Sagittarius and Gemini are both mutable signs, which means that you arc flexible and intellectual in character, and have a versatile mind. These signs arc also traditionally dual in nature, and you may therefore have a tendency to do more than one thing at a time. This is probably very natural to you, and it is something that you should not try to curb. You must, however, work to avoid superficiality, which may also result from y our dual nature. Always make a special effort to complete every thing that you undertake. Also remember that restlessness is the worst fault of both Gemini and Sagittarius. This characteristic is further emphasized in people born under a Full Moon.
Romance
You have all the passion of your Sagittarian Sun to express in y our love and sex life, added to which your Geminian Moon will make you very flirtatious. Some duality can obviously find a place in this area of your life, and it is worth remembering that you could encounter problems if y ou do not keep these tendencies under control. Even more than most Sagittarians, you require a good level of intellectual rapport with a lover.
A our well-being
Gemini rules the arms and hands, so y ours may be vulnerable to injury. It also rules the lungs, so you could be susceptible to bronchitis and should
beware of a cough that will not go away. If \‘ou smoke, break the habit as soon as possible.
Your (Jeminian Moon gi\ es you a great deal of nervous energy, w liicli must be positively expressed through lively physical exercise.
Planning ahead You should probabh always seek professional adviee when von have money to invest. Your Sagittarian gambling spirit may combine with a (Jeminian liking for get-rich-quickschemes and, .is .1 result, you could end up losing I’.ir more money th.in you .ire re.illy able to afford.
Parenthood
\s a parent, you may even be ahead of your children in relation to the most modern trends.
It is, however, possible that a tendency to be inconsistent may damage your relationship. Make sure that \011r children alw ays know where they stand with you. In this way yon should avoid the generation gap.
The combination of Sagittarius, a fire sign, and Cancer, a water sign, makes for some contrasting characteristics that you should use to full advantage. Because the Moon rules Cancer, the influence of your Moon sign is very powerful.
Self-expression
You are much more sensitive than many Sagittarians, and can be more easily hurt, too. You are also prone to changes of mood. While you will have plenty of Sagittarian optimism and enthusiasm, your immediate reaction to any situation will be cautious. You have an instinctive self-defensive system that immediately springs into action when you are challenged.
Romance
You express love very sensually and have many desirable qualities that should enable you to maintain a stable, yet exciting, relationship.
Your emotional level is very high, for you have all the powerful, fiery emotion of Sagittarius, which will spur you into passionate expression of love and sex. You also have the more tender emotion of Cancer, which should enable you to tune into your partner's needs on all levels.
You are probably less happy-go- lucky in your relationships than many Sun sign Sagittarians, but should be careful not to let Caneerian moodiness and a tendency to react very sharply mar so much that is positive.
Your well-being
The Caneerian body area covers the breasts and, although Canccrians are no more likely to contract cancer than anyone else, Sagittarian women should obviously make the usual regular checks.
Sagittarians are among the people who are least likely to worry when confronted with problems, whereas
Canccrians are among those most prone to it. The positive areas of your personality should enable you to deal with worry, although your digestion may sometimes trouble you under d i ffi c u 11 c i r e u m s t a n e e s.
Cancerians are usually good and enthusiastic cooks, and Sagittarians like tasty, rich food. If you are overweight, you may not be getting enough exercise.
Planning ahead
You are very lucky where finance is concerned. Your Sagittarian gambling spirit is mitigated by a shrewd andinstinctive business sense, stemming from your Moon sign. If you are investing, follow your intuition; when you are in doubt, you would be wise to seek professional advice.
Parenthood
You are probably a far more caring and protective parent than most Sagittarians. Do not take this too far, though, and allow your enthusiasm to encourage your children. If you are not too sentimental, and manage to keep abreast of your children's thoughts and ideas, you will have few problems with the generation gap.THE MOO

our Sun and Moon signs arc Loth of the fire element, so you have great natural enthusiasm and optimism, and an extremely positive outlook on life.
Self-expression
You may tend to he marginally more eonvcntional than most Sun sign Sagittarians, but this only serves to make you naturally elegant and gives you a powerful instinct for real quality. Your Sun sign, on the other hand, endows you with a good mind, and you may have very considerable creative potential.
You are able to cope well with people and very possibly have excellent organizing ability. Generally speaking, your Sagittarian Sun prevents you from becoming pompous or bossy, but should you be accused of these traits, take note. You are extremely magnanimous, and never harbor a grudge.
Romance
You are a very passionate and demonstrative lover, and probably have a stylish approach to a prospective partner. You will create an expensive, romantic atmosphere, and will do everything in your power to make life happy, enjoyable, and even blissful for your lovers.
You will be a very supportive partner and, because loyalty is important to you, once you are committed you have less of a roving eye than many Sagittarians.
^ our well-being
The Leo body area covers the hack and spine. You will do well to remember this, and to gear part of your exercise schedule toward that area. If you have to spend a lot of time sitting at an office desk, consider getting a back-support chair. The Leo organ is the heart, and it too must be kept in good condition.
Most Sun sign Sagittarians not only need, hilt also enjoy, physical exercise. Keeping fit through sports and exercise should therefore he no real problem for you. Your Leo Moon may attract you to all kinds of dance, and this is something that you should consider as an alternative to health clubs or participating in team sports.
Planning ahead
You need to earn a lot of money in order to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle; you have big ideas and may well be very extravagant. But you are notgood with investments, provided that you remember to control your Sagittarian gambling spirit and the tendency to put too mans eggs in one basket. Aim to have one or two really sound, secure sa\ings plans.
Parenthood
You are a very encouraging and enthusiastic parent, and your children will thrive on your positive, lively comments on their interests. At times your children may sec you as slightly pompous, but if you keep a sense of humor vou should not have manv
Both Sagittarius and Virgo are mutable signs and, as a result, you have a flexible mind and great intell ec t ua 1 ca p ac i tv.
Self-expression
While most Sagittarians find detail boring and difficult to deal with, you respond differently. You react well to it and may look at details even before looking for a broad overview.
You are critical and analytical in your approach to problems, and will probably express your Sagittarian versatility within the broad confines of one or two large subjects. Your ability to get your ideas across to other people is excellent, since you communicate fluently.
Romance
Your Sagittarian passion is somewhat moderated by your Yirgoan Moon, which may inhibit you in the area of love and sex. An instinctive modesty
can make you feel a little inferior in this field. In fact, you have much to offer, so try not to put yourself down.
A serious Yirgoan fault is to nag and to criticize partners, often for no good reason. Your Sagittarian Sun sign will loathe this tendency and help you to bite your tongue if you find yourself beginning to complain.
Your well-being
The Yirgoan body area is the stomach and, while Sagittarius is not prone to worry, Virgo certainly is. Interestingly, your stomach may react before your mind. You need a high-fiber diet and will perhaps incline to vegetarianism, to which Yirgoans tend to be particularly attracted.
You have a great deal of nervous, tense energy, and periods of stress can wreak havoc with you. A calming, centering discipline such as yoga could well be of considerable benefit to you. Also think about sports and
exercise regimens, which could include pursuits such as walking, rambling, cycling, and gardening.
Planning ahead You are more careful with your finances than most Sagittarians, and find it fairly easy to save money and to avoid unnecessary extravagance. Your ability to eope with detail may incline you to keep careful accounts and to watch the stock market. Do, however, guard against your
Sagittarian gambling spirit, and be self-critical if it seems likely to run away with you. 'This will be the time to seek professional advice.
Parenthood
All your Sagittarian enthusiasm will color your attitude to your children. However, that Yirgoan critical response may be far harsher in your children’s eyes than it seems to you. Keep up with their concerns, and you will avoid the generation gap.
The fire of your Sagittarian Sun and the air of your Libran Moon blend well. You have a warm-hearted and attractive personality, and respond well to people, showing sympathy and understanding.
Self-expression
Because of their characteristic haste, Sagittarians sometimes tend to lack tact. 'Phis is not so in your ease; your Libran Moon helps you to control the tendency and, in many ways, makes you a diplomat.
When confronted with challenging situations, your immediate response may well be less assertive and positive than that of many Sun sign Sagittarians. I Iowever, once you have drawn your conclusions, your Sagittarian Sun sign usually points you in the right direction.

You may need to persuade yourself to be a little more self-disciplined and better organized if you are to make the best of your potential.
Romance
You are probably rather more romantic than many Sagittarians, and enjoy setting a glamorous scene in which to make love. Once committed, you make a wonderful partner. You will always be fair and listen to your lover's ideas.
Your well-being
The Libran organ is the kidneys and, if you are at all prone to headaches, there could be a minor problem with them. Very often those with a Libran influence get totally bored with exercise and just give up. Aim to avoid this, because Sagittarians have a lot of physical energy to burn, and lethargy does not suit them. Your

eat too much sweet food, and you could well suffer from excessive weight gain as a result. Even the balance by becoming a member of a good health club with a variety of exercise programs.
Planning ahead
You are very generous and may not be terribly sensible with money. Both your Sagittarian gambling streak and your Libran Moon’s sympathy for a hard-luck story may be a source of money problems. Do not overinvestin one area, do not lend money, and do not gamble more than you can afford to lose. Always aim to get professional advice in this area.
Parenthood
While you are a very enthusiastic and kind parent, you are capable of spoiling your children. Remember that indecisiveness on your part makes it difficult for them to know where they stand. If you keep up with their ideas, you will have few difficulties with the generation gap.
Sagittarius and Scorpio are both charged with a great deal of physical and emotional energy. Sagittarians express this in a lively, positive way, while Scorpios tend to be deeply penetrating, incisive, and generally very intuitive.
Self-expression
You obviously have extremely powerful resources on which to draw, and striking potential. You have breadth of vision and the ability to deal with any aspect of a challenge or problematic situation. Your powers of endurance, under both difficult physical conditions and intellectually demanding ones, are second to none. With all of this in mind, it is obvious that you need to be totally committed to your objectives in life, and that your reach must always exceed your grasp. If you are unfulfilled and life seems empty, few Sagittarians will suffer more than you.
Romance
Your passion for a full life is second only to your expression of love and sex. In this area you are very enthusiastic and, while you contribute a great deal to the success of a permanent emotional relationship, you are also very demanding, and need an extremely energetic and passionate partner.
The worst Scorpio fault is jealousy - something that your Sagittarian Sun sign will deplore. You may find yourself reacting negatively to a partner's mildly flirtatious behavior, while you yourself enjoy an element of freedom within a relationship.
Your well-being
The Scorpio body area covers the genitals; anyone, whatever their Sun sign, should get regular checkups in that area. But it is your emotional and physical energy that has the strongest influence on your general health andwell-being. Aim to get regular exercise; all kinds of water spe should suit vou.
Planning ahead
Vou eould be very clever with money provided that you allow your instinctive business sense and intuition to express themselves. Financial risk-taking could attract you, and you may end up taking an unwise plunge. At such times, the Scorpion is wiser than the Centaur.
Parenthood
W hile yon are always enthusiastic and encouraging, you eould be a somewhat demanding parent. Children like a well-structured life, which gives them a sense of security. Be careful not to overdo this, however, or to allow tradition and discipline to interfere with the sheer enjoyment of your children's company. Encourage their interests and ideas, and keep abreast of them in order to avoid the generation gap.
Should you study a list of your Sun sign characteristics, you will probably recognize that a great many of them apply to you. Out of a list of perhaps 20 traits of a Sun sign listed in books or magazines, most people will strongly identify with 11 or 12.
For you, however, the average increases considerably because the Sun and Moon were both in Sagittarius when you were born.
Self-expression
Not only do you have the attributes of your Sun sign, but you also respond to situations in the same manner. When someone suggests an idea to you, your natural enthusiasm ignites, and you are eager to get involved.
You probably do not worry too much about possible pitfalls or problems, regarding them as something to be dealt with when you come to them. But it is important that you keep your initial enthusiasm onthe boil, because if you do not, you could easily succumb to the most serious Sagittarian fault: restlessness. You are capable of enormous versatility, but must learn to be selective and to develop a degree of consistency. You have a high level of intellectual and physical energy, and neither must be allowed to stagnate.
Romance
You are passionate and will enjoy love and sex with a youthful exuberance. You must have a full love and sex life, and need a partner who is intellectually very stimulating.
Fidelity may not come naturally to you, and your partners must learn that you need a good measure of freedom in this sphere of your life.
Your well-being
If you turn to pages 422 to 423, you will read about Sagittarian health and well-being. As you are a “double
Sagittarian,” those comments w ill most definitely apply to you.
Be careful not to overindulge in heavy food. You are prone to weight gain, and unwanted flesh is likely to gather around your hips and thighs - especially if you arc a woman. Good workouts and some of the more daring sports arc excellent for you.
Planning ahead
"t our Sagittarian gambling instinct could get the better of you from time to time, and you may be strongly- attracted to get-rich-quick schemes. You must be careful to curb theseenthusiasms and to always get professional financial advice when you have some money to invest, no matter how convincing a deal may seem at the time.
Parenthood
You are among the most enthusiastic of parents and w ill alw ays encourage your children to make the most of their potential. You probably try to see to it that they fill their days as completely as you do. You do not find it difficult to keep up with their ideas and should not incur problems with the generation gap.
There are some striking eontrasts between Sagittarius and Capricorn and, as a result, you possess a multifaceted personality, with a great deal of potential that can be expressed in a variety of ways.
Self-expression
Your Sagittarian Sun sign gives you fiery enthusiasm and a positive outlook on life. On the other hand, the earth element of your Moon sign makes you instinctively cautious and far less likely to take risks than are many Sagittarians.
You are very ambitious and, when presented with a challenging situation, will at once be able to foresee the end result. You will then begin to plan your moves constructively toward that goal.
Sagittarians are, on the whole, good communicators, and you will certainly let it be known if you are being impeded by some form ofinefficiency. Should you be accused of grumbling too much, which is usually very uncharacteristic of Sagittarians, you must take note.
Romance
You are less gushing in expressing your emotions than many people of your Sun sign, and could tend to hold back a little in the initial stages of a relationship. This does not mean that you cannot enjoy a truly rewarding and fulfilling love and sex life.
You could be more faithful, and have less of a roving eye, than other Sagittarians, and may take a while to commit yourself to a relationship.
Your well-being
The Capricornian body area covers the knees and shins. Yours will be vulnerable, especially if you engage in a lot of sporting activities. Treatment can save a great deal of pain and prevent serious problems.
The teeth, skin, and hones are also in Capricorn’s domain, so beware of stiffness in the joints, and keep moving. Do not neglect regular dental checkups, and wear a protective cream when the sun is strong.
You may have a rapid metabolism; if so, weight gain is unlikely to he a problem for you.
Planning ahead
Anyone with a Capricornian influence is usually careful, and often good with money. You like to see it grow, so
your Sagittarian gambling streak is probably kept under control. You only take financial risks if you are sure you can afford to lose the money involved.
Parenthood
Your sense of humor is a great asset to you as a parent, but you could, surprisingly for a Sagittarian, react a little coolly to some of your children’s suggestions and ideas. If you enjoy the challenge of keeping up with them, you will manage to leap across the generation gap.
The fire element of Sagittarius and the air element of Aquarius blend well, not only making you the individualist of your Sun sign peers, but also putting you among those who greatly need independence and freedom of expression.
Self-expression
You may well have built a lifestyle that has certain individual features. You are a warm-hearted and very friendly person, but definitely need both physical and psychological space. Pettiness, unnecessary detail, and people who nag are not for you.
Romance
The Moon in Aquarius adds a certain glitz and glamour to your personality, but you may also respond coolly and distantly when first approached by prospective partners. You need a good period of friendship and intellectual rapport before the lively passion ofyour Sagittarian Sun can be fully expressed. Your love and sex life is probably rewarding, but you must cater to your need for independence. You may postpone a full commitment until you find a partner who sees this and is willing to allow you space.
Your well-being
The Aquarian body area covers the ankles, and yours are vulnerable.
The circulation is also ruled by Aquarius and, if you like crisp, cold weather, you must try to keep warm.
You may enjoy skiing, skating, or dancing. In any case, you should get involved in some form of exercise. You thrive on a light diet, even if you like the heavier foods often favored by your Sun sign.
Planning ahead
You may find it quite difficult to save money regularly. You are probably attracted to fashionable clothes and
fine and unusual things for the home. You could go all out for some apparently excellent savings plan and invest heavily in it, only to find that it runs into difficulty.
It may he well worth your while to seek professional financial advice when you have some money to invest. Best of all, you should seriously consider taking part in some option where a certain proportion of your regular paycheck is invested at the source before you can squander it.
Remember, your Sagittarian gambling spirit is very much attracted to exciting but risky schemes.
Parenthood
You are an extremely lively parent and do not find it difficult to know what your children are thinking. If you keep up with their ideas, you should have few problems with the generation gap. Aim to display warm affection toward your children, and avoid unpredictable responses.
Sagittarius and Pisces are both mutable signs, and their combination makes you very flexible and easygoing. In addition, both are dual signs. Pisces is represented by two fishes swimming in opposite directions, Sagittarius by a creature who is both man and horse. These symbols represent a high degree of versatility, with enviable potential, but suggest a similarly high degree of restlessness.
Self-expression
■ , While it is very important for you to have a variety of very different interests, you should also develop staying power and complete any project that you start, if it is to give you inner satisfaction.
Your response to challenges is complex. At first, you probably feel somewhat hesitant and lacking in confidence, but then you may decide
for no apparent reason, do precisely the opposite, which may turn out to be a mistake. Your Sun sign gives you an excellent, sharp intellect and a rich imagination, possibly adding creative potential. Be firm with yourself, and exploit these qualities.
Romance
You are caring, loving, and passionate, but need a strong partner who will bring out the best in you and ignite your Sagittarian enthusiasm. You are capable of giving much to a lover, and should enjoy a rieh and rewarding love and sex life.
The worst Piscean fault is deceitfulness; do not lie to yourself, especially when considering your lovers’ attitudes to you.
Your well-being
The Piscean body area is the feet, and you may find it difficult to obtainoon
i sees
fall back on eating too heavily, and may be prone to putting on weight unless you are actively involved in some form of sports, for example, dancing or skating.
Planning ahead
You are sometimes left wondering w here your money has gone. The answ er is that you have spent it on frivolous things. You may need help from a stronger, more down-to-earth partner or a friendly bank officer in w orking out a sensible budget. If you have some spare money, make sure that you get financial advice before
investing it. You should neither lend money, nor give so readih tocharits that vou get yourself into trouble.
Parenthood
You are probably a very warm and earing parent, who may well spoil your children. 'Take disciplinary measures when you must, even if you do not enjoy being strict, since this will help give your children a more secure background. You will always listen to your children’s problems, so they will know where they stand with you. There should be no problems with the generation gap.
