'Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less.' - C. S. Lewis

The ram characterizes Aries, and for good reason. This sign tends to be focused, obsessive about goals, and confident in their abilities. They are the pioneers of the zodiac and show great ambition. Aries are high achievers who are usually career-driven. They are also creative individuals and are always ready for action. The ram has horns on its head for a reason: it is a stubborn creature and won't give up without a fight. Sometimes they have a short fuse and jump to anger quickly, but they also forgive easily. Although Aries are strong-willed and stubborn, they are also respectful and caring. Generosity shines through and an Aries will always work hard to protect their loved ones. They will fight for love but also need a partner who is less aggressive and able to calm them down.

'No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.' -AESOP

Pisces is a wise and thoughtful observer of the world. Kind and patient, these folks are accepting of all kinds of personality types and often overlook the hurtful actions of others as they seek to understand their behaviour rather than judge it. This is one of the most creative and sensitive signs of the zodiac. Pisces enjoy escaping reality and tend to enjoy immersing themselves in reading, writing, music and nature. Astrologers identify pisces as being the most psychic sign in the zodiac. Pisces is also known for being a classic daydreamer, someone with big ideas who gets so wrapped up in their thoughts that they never get around to taking the steps necessary to bring them to fruition. They can also be pessimistic and overanalyze to the point of anxiety.

Aquarius

January 20 - February 18
Air Sign
Saturn
Yellow, violet, white
Topaz, sapphire

"One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star." - Friedrich Nietzsche

Aquarius love their alone time. They not only enjoy solitude but crave it. These people are creative, intelligent and completely original who need time by themselves to ground and recharge. Without this opportunity, Aquarius can become temperamental and moody. Aquarians are loving, generous individuals who also cultivate friendships well. They are never boring and are wonderful communicators.

Aquarians often have their heads in the clouds and often slip into day dreams. The sign of the water bearer is an emotional one so they can frequently become frustrated with global matters. Their weakness is that they become disconnected with the world they live in and can feel detached from people around them.

An Aquarius will never forget so if you upset one they will remind you of your past mistakes for years to come. They can be argumentative by nature and take the more dominant role, yet thez are truly loyal and very caring, especially if their partner is going through hardships.. a sense of humour is vital characteristic for Aquarians, as they have a lovely sense of fun about them.

Capricorn

Earth Sign

‘Be the leader you would follow’

Capricorn is your grown-up friend, the one who is grounded and responsible and tries to make the right choices most of the time. These are probably the hardest workers of the zodiac and made for wonderful providers. They accept that there is room for improvement in their methods and seeks to be a better person, leader, parent and friend.

Capricorns can be rigid in their beliefs and opinions and revert to what is most familiar and comfortable. This means that they may be reluctant to dive into new experiences or meet new people.

Because they are steadfast and reliable Capricorns need a partner who has the same characteristics of being highly moral and independent. Once you break a Capricorns walls down and they learn to trust and bond they are sensitive and protective partners.
