Sagittarius: From Sign to Chart
"A Sagittarius?! That is where that infectious smile comes from." "You are an adventurous spirit." "Rebel." It is always interesting to watch someone's facial expressions after you answer their question about your star sign. They analyze the tens or hundreds of memories they have with you and notice how these general characteristics are interwoven throughout your actions. They will often smile at you and say:

"It's A Virgo Thing"
"Yes, I would like the strawberry parfait please. Uh..except..well this is kind of awkward ha. I believe you've spelt parfait wrong on the menu. Riiight there. Yes! By your logo, which now that I look at it again, is actually off centre too. You're welcome."

Virgo, The Critical Mind
I have a love-hate relationship with the character traits of my star sign. Virgo, the virgin. The Perfectionist. The giver. The mind of a silent internal killer. Over analytic, always seeking praise to avoid the demon in the head everything. Oh, how I love the drive that comes with my sign. But how I loathe the never-ending critiques of everything that doesn't shine the brightest in my eyes.

Lopsided
Given my memory is a bit spotty in places, usually in the folds and recesses where the past trauma lives, it’s quite surprising I remember precisely where I sat at my hairdresser’s home that day. I’m a loyal person so getting my hair cut, colored, and highlighted by my drug addicted hairdresser, turned sometimes friend, perched in her kitchen while facing the messy counter seemed normal for me. Despite the blame placed on the challenges and needs of her drug addicted mother, the poor choices she made repetitively all spoke to the toxic pairing of mother and daughter as partners in the crime of obliterating each other daily with both vicious arguments and drugs. In the kitchen-based salon, where fights weren’t public and purple hazes and glazes were put on hair and the occupants with equanimity.

The Aries sun & Scorpio Moon
I was born in a blizzard in the middle of April. My mother described this as being a particularly strange day. She said that the weeks prior were sunny, warm, and had an invitation of Spring but when she began going into labor the air chilled, and light flurries began to fall from the sky.

The Healer Heals Herself
There are many ways to deal with pain, choose wisely. Drugs, sex, you name it, there is something for everyone these days to escape reality. My choice however is self-awareness. I have a rebellious streak that resists the normal pursuit of abandonment. I love to learn more about myself and the ways in which I can heal myself, and what better way than through the spiritual modality of astrology. Through the study of astrology, I testify that I am a true Scorpio.

How Your Star Sign Can Help You Land Your Dream Job
Preparing for an interview can be draining. You put so much effort into preparing responses, researching the company and looking your best, just to arrive on the day and be asked the world's worst interview question:

The Stars Deemed It So
From the day I was born the stars dictated the kind of person I would be today. In their essence they are energy, power, grace and blinding beauty. How is it that these impressive entities were aware of little old me, my own essence but a spec, a tiny life born an eternity away from their presence? My life is only a small blip on the timeline of the universe. The stars, by comparison, are wizened in their old age. They have seen generations of humans born, witnessed our growths and challenges, our wins and losses, and been present for our deaths. Who else but the stars would know from the instant I was born who I am destined to be for the rest of my existence? They have studied humankind for so long there is a very slim chance that they could be wrong in their assumptions of me. Unfortunately, though, the voices that speak on behalf of the stars above us can spread lies. Blessed we would be if we could bask in the stars’ presence directly, hear their whispers and stare in awe of their immense power but unfortunately we cannot come close enough to them to reveal their secrets entirely. Their knowledge of us may be twisted or lost as we pick out what information we can from so far away, and from the few who claim to know the stars’ best.

The Lioness Within
I know nothing of Astrology. Sun or Moon. Fire and water. All are parts of a whole. One does not exist without the other. Together, the elements can create something beautiful or become a disaster. Water boils above flames, flames are snuffed out by earth, plants grow by soaking up water and sunlight. It is a matter of how the elements are used. How they are combined. What their purpose is. The same concept can be applied to humanity. Our traits can be changed by our environments. Our dreams. Our struggles. Our purpose.
