The Zodiacal Twelve
According to Western astrology, there are twelve signs of the zodiac. Each occupies a 30 degree – segment of the perimeter of a vast, imaginary circle that surrounds the sun. Over the course of a year, the sun moves through the signs in the following order, starting with Aries in March (the spring equinox), Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. The Chinese zodiac also has twelve signs (the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig) but the divisions inherent in this astrological cycle are yearly, rather than monthly.
Feminine Fripperies
This day’s polarity is feminine, while Venus, the planetary ruler is the most girly of goddesses, so why not take advantage of these astrological influences to treat yourself? How about splashing out on an attractive adornment with which to add a feminine touch to your home or person.
