Scorpio October 23 –November 22
Ruled by Pluto
Let’s start with this little tidbit: after mating, the female Scorpion kills the male.
We bring this up only to illustrate that like their reptile symbol, a Scorpio can also be, ah, let’s call it, passionate. The more intense the situation, the more alive they feel. Scorpios love to wear black and the younger set will often go Goth and read YA novels about vampires and pirates. Little wonder their birthdays fall around Halloween. If this sounds like someone you know (or are raising), we suggest you pick your battles. Scorpios keep their private life private and are willing to go to the extreme to keep it this way.
Because they can cause sharp emotional wounds, Scorpios can either destroy or inspire. If you have a Scorpio lover tread carefully and don’t ever betray him. It's probably a good idea to keep some dark chocolate or a handful of arugulas around too. Both of these will do wonders to sedate him. Your courageous feeding act will not go unrewarded. Scorpios are demanding but loyal, and they might even take you along for the ride if you’re equally committed – or have a great car. You might say that Scorpios are the volcanoes of the human landscape. Explosive and creative, magnificent and mysterious. And for all you Scorpios who are reading this and know where I live… I like you, I really really like you.
Your Scorpion man will put you through the test, but if you play along (and pass) he will be forever yours. Some Scorpio men will join a heavy metal band, others will choose to become a Navy Seal or a surgeon. Whatever their passion, “Extreme Courage” is their middle name. These men appreciate a great leather jacket and a Casablanca poster. They also love a great cigar. Be careful that the Scorpion man does not see you as prey, because no one stands a chance against those pinchers. And don’t be surprised if he keeps a harem of women around him, Scorpion men need to be worshiped. So if you don’t like it, well he probably won’t like you.
After he’s hit rock bottom – which Scorpions tend to do in any and all things – he will shed his skin and rise again as the Pheonix. If you still want him, this is a good time to put on your highest heels (Scorpion men love heels) and pounce. Oh. And there is one sure-fire way to lure the Scorpion man into your chambers (and because we like you so much we’ll tell you): Reggae. The rasta vibration is the Scorpion man’s escape and turns him to mush. Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio are both examples of the mysterious Scorpion man.
Gorgeous tips for the Scorpio Woman. Enough is never enough for you, and you will pinch and destroy until you get what you want. Your lover, however, must never show signs of weakness (see first sentence) regardless of the fear sent coursing through his veins at your very touch. This same dichotomy lies in your style. You are the extremist. You should probably have two closets. One for your garter belts and velvet trench coats, and the other for your white yogananda robes. Whichever side of the spectrum you’re wearing today, however, you’re probably still in those heels.
Unlike the rest of the zodiac, a Scorpio has little need to strive for balance. It won't happen. Better to just figure out which side of the law you’re on today and wear it. This way, you stay happy and everyone around you stays alive. Jewelry is a staple and the bigger the bling the smaller your sting. Sharp angles and bold lines reflect your dangerous (okay fine, courageous) outlook on life. You might sport a tattoo or two, and it’s a rare Scorpio woman who doesn’t have at least her ears pierced (no need to elaborate, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Please.). Whoopi Goldberg, Demi Moore and Meg Ryan are amongst the most famous of you.
and ps. I like you.

Libra September 23-October 23
Ruled by Venus
Libras coined the phrase, “Let me think about it.” They’re not procrastinating exactly, they’re just weighing their options. And weighing and weighing…. This is a balanced sign – their symbol is, after all, the Scales and they can be counted on for an unbiased opinion.
Wearing stripes with plaids isn’t creative to these people, it’s disconcerting. A Libra is interested in fairness and justice, and won’t be afraid to seek out either. Your Libra co-worker might make it a personal mission to negotiate fairer wages or better benefits. And your Libra sibling certainly won’t let you get away with a bigger slice of the pie, both those you eat and those you inherit. If you want a snappy answer, don’t go to a Libra (go find a Gemini – you’ll have a fifty percent chance he’s at home, and a fifty percent chance he’s telling you the truth).
You probably won’t meet your Libra man at a Linkin Park concert – unless he’s the band’s lawyer. Jimmy Carter and Mahatma Ghandi embody the careful, considerate characteristics of a man of this sign. These men like beautiful women - inside and out - and balanced environments are his natural resting place. He will have been drawn to your perfect features (yes, you have them), so don’t go all insecure on him now. This will only give him time to contemplate those features – and pores – some more, and really, where’s the good in that? When a Libra man gives you a complement, just take it - he’s already thought about it long and hard anyway. The best gift you can give your Libra man (right behind a vest –which is for some reason his most cherished article of clothing) is peace, so he’s either the least demanding man on the planet, or the most, depending on your number of children/friends in bands/drums.
John Lennon was a Libra, so was Christopher Reeve. The Boss himself, Bruce Springsteen, is another fine Libra. It’s safe to say that your Libra man will be fair in whatever partnership he enters into, which means he just might be marriage material (as long as you keep it plaid on plaid).
Gorgeous Tips for the Libra woman
Just because you yearn for partnership, doesn’t mean you’ll be barefoot and pregnant any time soon - at least without a proper pedicure. Although you make for the most gracious hostess, you will deliberate for days about what to serve. You are an impeccable dresser and your closet is full of haute couture and hats (your version of the vest). It’s lights on skirts, though. Libra women prefer the straight lines and clean cuts of pants. Your style is a perfect blend of masculine and feminine and whether you admit it or not, there’s a bit of the vain in you (but the good kind). Apple and ginger are two of your favorite scents, and greens and blues always make you feel in charge. You keep company right alongside some of the greatest beauties in the world; Brigitte Bardot, Gwyneth Paltrow and Catherine Deneuve to name a few.

Virgo August 23 – September 23
Ruler is Mercury
Order is a Virgo’s middle name. These people aren’t soakers - they’ll scrub as long as it takes to get the job done. Cool, calm and collected, a Virgo would rather do than dream. This doesn’t mean that a Virgo isn’t imaginative. Quite the contrary. Their symbol is the Virgin; fertile and promising. Virgos are eager to work, especially if it involves the organizing, rearranging or folding of people, companies or countries.
A Virgo person is busy. With so many ingredients to read and so much clutter to clean, their quest for exactness in the world can be frustrating. Idle time is about as appealing as a sharp stick in the eye for this group. But quiet time for expanding inner space is the remedy they need to calm their nerves. Your Virgo friend won’t like waiting in line for your favorite yoga class, but insist that she come anyway because this kind of spiritual connection will ease much of her anxiety. (And then she can go home and put her cereal boxes in alphabetical order.)
On the outside, Virgos seem about as easy going as the Secret Service at an Inauguration. But give them time to assess (and count and reconfigure), and you’ll most likely uncover a shy charm behind their aviator sunglasses. Remember, they can't help the fact that they can't go to bed until their underwear is ironed. What if their pants blow off from a faulty seam while standing too close to the tracks just as the express train goes by? These things happen. And the Virgo knows it.
Let’s put it this way: if they were a toy, they’d be a worry doll.
Loyal and grounded, your Virgo man will open his heart once he’s measured the situation. But don’t play mind games with him. He doesn’t have time for that – not when there are so many gadgets to take apart and put back together again. His tailor is one of his saviors – a starched shirt and crisp suit will make his heart sing. And because the Virgo is a fixed Earth sign, browns and greens should be the first choice for his gift. Have you noticed that the Christmas tree is one of his favorite things in all the world? Why, you ask. Because controlling everything can be exhausting, but he’s no match for Mother Nature – and he’s smart enough to know it. So let him sneak out to his garden or sip green tea when his mood gets too hot. Sean Connery, Oliver Stone and Richard Gere are all Virgos. We’d bet the bank you’ll find hand sanitizer on them.
Gorgeous tips for the Virgo Woman.
If you don’t have a Kitchen Witch hanging in your kitchen already, well then, a) you’ve lost it or b) someone’s stolen it. Because you are the kitchen witches of the Zodiac. Herbs and tonics are your backyard (they’re growing in there too), which means you know exactly what to do to keep your skin glowing and your hair growing. We don’t mean to suggest that you’re the kind of girl who skips on shaving – you’d definitely rather see the forest in the trees, than on your legs, but you are one earthly chick. Deep rich browns and greens are your compatible colors. You’re impeccably dressed and always look ready to take on the world - under your fuzzy sweater, of course. Good texture and soft knits are your vice. But your jewelry is usually of fine lines and structure. You may be slow to give your heart over to a romantic partner, but that partner probably wont get sick very often – not with your homemade remedies and tenacious care-giving. Because snuggled up in a cashmere wrap, there’s simply no stopping you.

Leo July 22- August 23
Ruled by the Sun.
Bottled sunshine, this is the Leo. In fact their ruling moon is the sun. That’s why your little Leo brother gets away with everything – not because he’s the favorite, but because his shine is bright enough to temporarily blind your parents, and well, just about anyone else.
If they were a candy, they’d be a lemon drop.
Leos tend to live in castles and drive Rolls-Royces. Or at least act like they do, or will, or might. Their confidence can be intimidating. But here’s the reason you want one as your best friend, main squeeze or gulp, sibling: they’d like nothing more than to take you along for the ride. The Sun brightens every planet in our solar system and like it or not, so do these Lions. Leos don’t just ask you to join in, they grab your hand and start pulling. The only thing that makes a Leo shine brighter is to have your cheery smile standing next to them - unless you humiliate them in public, in which case you better run while you still can.
Your Leo Leading Man will spare no expense to make you happy. Just be sure to flatter him along the way, without ever undermining him. There’s only one ruler in his den. Tend to his every need and you will forever be his queen. You will also discover that under all that mane, the Lion can be as shy as a lamb. They can also be funny (Steve Carell), and short (Napoleon). And it’s a safe bet that they’re some kind of leader (Barack Obama, Arnold Schwarzenegger). A Leo man is as romantic as he is influential and the last thing he wants is an indifferent woman. But always remember, a Lion needs to roar once in a while. So let him.
Gorgeous tips for the Leo woman Lights, camera, action! This is the Leo girl’s mantra. These women emanate elegance and their style can be infectious (Coco Chanel), even if they are painfully shy about it (Jacqueline Kennedy). They’ve also been known to singlehandedly keep the unitard alive (Madonna). As a Leo woman, you can pull off just about any look you want – as long as it’s elegant. Tiaras and furs (hopefully of the synthetic kind) fill your closet – and you are the rare woman who never sees them collect dust! When you were a little Leo, your favorite play-date was probably dress up – and frankly not much as changed. But you don’t just beautify yourself, you’ll bling-up your bff, family dog, or even, yes, your pesky little brother.

Cancer June 21- July 22
Ruled by the Moon
Crabs have no backbone. They do, however, have claws - ones that will pinch the life out of their prey. And this too, describes the Cancer. Confrontation isn’t their strong suit - unless they, or someone they love, is in danger. Then, just like the crab, they’ll charge at you full speed sideways. And once a Cancer gets her claws on you, watch out - there ain’t nuthin’ gonna’ to get her off.
Cancers, like their ruling Moon, reflect those around them. These people need to be exceptionally mindful of who they spend time with. Fortunately, Cancers are also the most intuitive sign of the Zodiac. They are hardwired to read minds. As long as they listen to their gut, they’ll know exactly who is trustworthy, and who is not. Those of you without claws be forewarned - you can't lie to this group.
You can, however, hurt their feelings. Home is where their heart is and Cancers like to spend as much time there as possible. If you do happen to upset a Cancer, it’s best to leave a white peony on her doorstep and retreat. She’ll come out of her shell eventually and most likely forgive you (as long as you’re sincere –remember, she can tell). But watch what you feed these crabs. Cancers’ stomachs are as sensitive as their souls. Yes, this sign might come with some rules, but if you can weather their many moods, a Cancer in your corner will be the warmest part of your house.
Your Cancer man is a great cook – that’s why he’s always inviting you to dine at his house (no, it’s not because he’s cheap!). He may take his time deciding if you’re the one – but once you’ve been pinched he’ll have to be pried off of you. If this bothers you, there are plenty of other fish in the sea (like a Pisces, who’ll give you all the space you need!) But if you’re ready to be cherished, the crab is your man. It’s possible your Crab man is an artist (Rubens), novelist (Ernest Hemmingway), musician (Cat Stevens) or crazy (Robin Williams - we’re just kidding here. Never name-call a Cancer, he’s not apt to forget - or forgive). He may also be very peaceful (Nelson Mandela. The 14th Dalai Lama.) Or very bossy (Julius Caesar).
Gorgeous tips for the Cancer woman
As hard as her shell is, the crab woman is really all goopy inside. So while you undoubtedly like to layer – what you wear underneath should be soft and sensual. Your curves are your best feature - regardless of their size (Pamela Anderson is a crab), so never fear the belt! Fluid lines and flowing dresses – styles that move like water - will make you feel right at home. Choosing delicate accessories over large dramatic ones will keep your style light and free - unless it’s a diamond, in which case flaunt requirement is mandatory. Keep the rest of the jewelry to a minimum, however. If you put three accessories on, take two off.
And hey! Just because you’re motherly doesn’t mean you have to look matronly. Ever heard of the MILF? They’re talking about you, mamma crab! Whites and pastels are a good reflection of your ruling moon. If you must wear chakra-blocking black, try picking a shimmering fabric or one with sequins. With so much nurture in your nature, covering up your heart chakra with black is, well, kind of a bummer for the rest of us. A cancer woman can make the world a nicer place just by the power of her compassion alone. Princess Diana. Mary Magdalene. Marianne Williamson. Need we go on? And remember, a Cancer woman is never afraid to show off her feminine side because she knows that is where her true power lies.
