Spring Signs In Love

Hey everyone, Hope you all have a great day. As soon as I finish up here, going to enjoy a day of pampering, getting my nails filled & a pedicure. Then off to enjoy the beautiful weather. Today’s post is about the Spring Sun Signs; Aries, Taurus and Gemini, in love.

Since Aries is first in the zodiac I am going to start off with them. Rams are known for not taking “no” for an answer, this is no different when they are in love. An Aries will pursue the one that they live to the ends of the earth & beyond if necessary. Rams are the happiest with other Fire Signs, other Aries, Leos, or Sagittarians, because like Aries these sign also crave excitement and passion.

Once the fire dies, don’t expect the Ram to stick around, they thrive in relationship that contain fire. Rams tend to seek lovers who are dependent when it comes to love but independent in other ways. It’s tough to love a Ram!! Being a Ram myself, I can vouch for that. My boyfriend definitely has his work cut out for him. But he can handle me.

Rams can be very jealous, they expect their lover to give them the same fiery attention that they are giving. Rams also love to share everything they have with a lover they trust. Like the ambition they have for themselves, the ambition they have for their lover, shows no bounds.

Rams get along well with all Air signs. For example, Aries opposite, Libra can provide the air need to keep the fire burning, but Aries may get tired of Libra’s standards. Gemini & Aquarius can also feed Aries’ fire. Aries and Cancer or Capricorn don’t do well together; they are a “household” sign and Aries is not. Two of the things required in love, compromise and the meeting of others needs, are very hard for Rams.

The second of the Spring signs is Taurus. A Bull in love stays in love for two reasons…security and stability. To sensuous, earthbound Bulls, love are romance and the same thing.. Bulls are probably the most patient when it comes to making sure that the love is right. A Bull will always be there for their loved one & they expect the same in return.

Bulls don’t like change, so they may tend to be jealous if the stability that they have created becomes threatened in anyway. A Taurean partner is one that you can always count on. Although the relationship may seem dull at times, a Bull is with you for the long haul.

Bulls are attracted to Water signs, especially Cancer and Pisces. Bulls or Rising Bulls are likely to find their soul mate in Scorpio, their opposite. Bulls get along with household Cancer’s because Bull’s like to be comfortable.

Taureans are often attracted to more lively signs, such as Aries, Gemini or Sagittarius, but will become annoyed quickly when all these signs want to do is go out & play. Bulls are most comfortable with other Earth signs, since thier reliability and need for routine matches their own. Don’t expect these matches to produce fireworks.

The last but certainly not the least Spring sign is Gemini. Castor and Pollux, the twins of the Gemini myth choose to be united forever in the sky rather then be separated for a single moment.

Twins can be fickle when it comes to love. Someone that seems fascinating one week can be boring the next week. Twins can be ideal lovers. They are charming, witty, and generous. Twins will see genuinely interested in you, it’s keeping that interest that is a challenge. You can win this challenge by meeting them on their own ground. Let them know that they can trust you by trusting them.

Gemini’s do well with other Air signs, such as other Geminis, Librans, and Aquarians are good matchs for Twins. Air sings are lighthearted and understand each other’s need for mental stimulation.

Because Air feeds Fire, Gemini also does well with Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. Down-to-earth Virgo is also a good match for the Twins. Both Gemini and Virgo are mutable quality and are ruled by Venus. Twins and Virgos can challenge each other and teach each other a lot.

That’s it for Spring sings in love. Come back tomorrow to hear for the rest of the Gemstones & Crystals, If you have any questions feel free to email us at miraclesnmagic@comcast.net

Spring Signs: Aries, Taurus & Gemini

Hello all, hope you all have a great day.  It’s damp & rainy here today, but at least its Spring. Today, I decided to talk about the Spring Signs. There are Aries, Taurus and Gemini.

When you first look at these 3 signs they seem to have nothing in common, Aries likes to get things going, Taurus would rather keep them as they are, and Gemini likes to talk about them. They do have 1 thing in common. Like their season spring, the season of new growth & new life, these three signs are all about creating the new. They are the ones out there making things happen. And now a little about each sign.

Aries: The Ram (March 21 to April 20)

Aries is the first sign on the zodiac, and being an Aries myself, let me tell you it’s no accident that we are first. Hell, if we weren’t first we would just have to rearrange things & make us first! Aries are pioneers, daredevils, we are the people that never say “No”. Being the first cardinal sign, Rams are unstoppable. We want to be were the action is and you we will do whatever we can to be the first ones there. Just a little warning, stay out of an Aries way; or else you will get run down. No on has a stronger will than an Aries.

Aries is the only fire sign with the cardinal quality, this is why Aries like to start things but never finish them. Aries see starting of something new as “fun” but when it comes to finishing it, it is no longer “fun”, so the Aries will pass it off to someone else. Other cardinal signs are, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn, these signs start of each season and are the signs of beginnings. More on these signs later.

Being a fixed Earth sign Taurus is the most passive of the zodiac. They have all there feet planted firmly on the ground. There calmness & dependability makes them someone you can count on. Bulls live be the rule, if it’s not broken, don’t fix it. They can be conservative and cautious & will stick with what works.

Because Bull’s have a strong connection to the Earth the are usually materially wealthy, this wealth is found in the cozy home that they create. You are very likely to find a Bull sitting in their favorite chair, reading their favorite book/paper, perfectly content that everything is just as it is.

Bull’s desire for harmony goes beyond themselves. They will also seek harmony with everything on Earth. They love to see things grow; gardens, people, situations, and money. Bulls are more likely to live in the country, by chance that a Bull lives in the city, they will be surround themselves with plants. Bulls like silence and are often people of a few words.

Pluto: Planet of Transformation

Hello everyone, hope  you are all having a great day so far. The weather is beautiful here. I am so glad that it is finally spring time. As soon as I am done posting & answering any questions I am going out side to enjoy the day. Today’s post is going to be about Pluto, the 9th planet in our solar system. It is 3,680,000,000 miles from the sun. Although, Pluto has been demoted from its planet status, it is still highly recognized in astrology.

Pluto is known to be the planet of awesome power but it’s a power that is mysterious and difficult to understand, for us even. It was discovered in 1930. 

Pluto is named after the Roman God of the Underworld, and the nether regions of Hades, and also the Spirits of the Dead. It was originally called Planet X. Pluto was given its name by a young British girl. Pluto signifies death and rebirth. It is also the planet of regenerative forces, which recreates, of destruction and annihilation and, complete transformation.

Pluto’s power is felt in world events, great tides of history. Also disruptive elements like earthquakes and volcanoes are caused by Pluto. Its negative influence is shown in mob violence, demonstrations, murder, terrorism, and bombing. Pluto is the third generational planet.

When Pluto appears in your horoscope, this may mean change, perhaps a transformation.  If you ever seen your life in an entirely new light and decide to change everything, you felt Pluto’s power. 

Pluto also has a personal meaning in your chart. It governs the beginning and ends of the phases in life. Pluto represents the highest and lowest of which humankind is capable. Some astrologers believe Pluto is too hidden and mysterious for us to analyze but the planet will continue to govern impulses in our secret psyches we don’t fully understand.

It is thirty times further from the Sun than Earth. Neptune is known as the planet of mystery and illusion, an the power of the imagination. It also represents your dream life and mystic qualities. It is sometimes called Planet of bewitchment. Neptune is named after the Roman God of the Sea, who ruled over oceans, rivers, streams, fountains, and all things hidden by watery depths.
Do you have an active fantasy life?  Do you have a personality that hypnotizes people?  Are you compassionate about the suffering of others?

Uranus: Planet of Change & Originality

Hello everyone, hope you are all having a great day today. I have been out doing errands all morning. Today we are going to discuss Uranus. It is the planet of change and originality, symbolizing the element of surprise in your life.

Uranus brings about events and opportunities. It stirs, shocks and revolutionizes. It is responsible for the flash of the human mastermind that creates something new, whether it is art or science.

Do you often take an action that has no rhyme or reason? Attracted to unusual line of work or odd people? Feel you are more an inventive thinker than those around you? Are you interested in modern science and the latest discoveries? Are you known for being an unusual character?  If you answered yes to these questions, then it’s evident that Uranus is strong in your birth chart.

It’s important that you know the reason where Uranus occupies where it is in your horoscope in order to see where own originality is and special self expression can be made the most of.

Uranus wasn’t known to the ancients. It was discovered 1781.
Uranus was the Roman sky god, first ruler of the universe. It is known as the planet of the future, associated with modern science, invention, electricity, humanitarian movements, and revolution.

There is sudden disorder and swift, unexpected happenings. Its domain is all new, original, different and untraditional.
Uranus relates to your inner will and secret power. It has a deep seated (subconscious) energy within the personality, an unconscious purpose that is revealed over a lifetime.

The position of Uranus tells us whether you have an inventive or unconventional mind (eccentric or unusual) and if you are attracted to odd and peculiar ideas. It also tells us whether you are very smart, what unusual circumstances you encounter at work, travel and relationships; wealth for sudden and dramatic events that mark your life.

If Uranus is prominent, you are inclined to be independent and resourceful. May dress in an unusual manner, create your own style and invent new gadgets. People may be attracted to you because of your “far out” point of view. You may even be psychic.

In addition to having a personal meaning in your horoscope, Uranus is one of three planets that have a generational influence. The other two are Neptune and Pluto.

Uranus’s influence tends to make someone undisciplined, reckless, and stubborn. They have an abrupt manner, rebelliousness, and unpredictable moods.

Saturn: Planet of Discipline & Limitation

Hello everyone, hope you all have a great day. I am going to be heading out soon to enjoy this nice weather. Today we are going to talk about the sixth planet from the sun and the most remote planet in our solar system, Saturn. It measures 75,000 miles. 

 Saturn is known to be the planet of responsibility so it symbolizes the ethics of hard work. Through its influence, a person’s character is strengthened through trial and difficulty. It’s been told Saturn disciplines us until we learn to discipline ourselves.

Are you able to stick with tasks? At times do you feel beset by problems or see obstacles at every turn? Do other people call you stubborn? Have you ever felt lonely or depressed? If you answered yes to aany of these, then you have felt Saturn’s presence in your life.

The planet is named after a Titan-God who was also a father of Jupiter, Neptune, and Pluto. It’s also a symbol for Father Time, since he brought an end that had a beginning.

Saturn is also a planet of thoroughness, self control and limitation. Its dominion is patience, stability, maturity and practicality.  Its influence is stern and restrictive, cold and harsh. Saturn is known as the Celestial Taskmaster. It is one that teaches us lessons that we have to learn in life. It does not give us more than we can handle, although at time it seems lie it.   Sometimes the effort itself is the reward, it builds character! In the end, what we learn, we’ll keep the rest of our lives.

In your chart, Saturn’s position tells how well you accept responsibility, whether you are self disciplined, what setbacks and opposition you can expect. When Saturn is prominent, you tend to be reliable, trustworthy, and patient. It gives the power to endure, provides stubbornness, and perseverance to realize your potential.
