CHARECTERISTICS OF PEOPLE BORN IN CUSP PERIOD:-
ARIES CUSP: Their are two types of Aries Cusp i,e, Aries - Pisces Cusp & Aries - Taurus Cusp.
(a)Aries - Pisces Cusp: The intensity, fire and drive of their typical Aries Sun sign is significantly softened by the Piscean influence. This means that if they're born in the first week or so of Aries ie between the 21st and the 28th of March, they are called a cusp baby and will be influenced not only by Mars and Aries but also by Jupiter, Neptune and the sign that they rule, namely Pisces.
Although they still have the drive and determination of their Aries Sun sign, they're also influenced by compassionate and loving Pisces. Their heart reaches out to others and you feel the suffering and pain of their fellow men. They're able to empathize and are therefore a great listener when it comes to others wanting to share their problems with them. They never turn others away and this is why they're a loved by all your friends and family.
There is a danger that they are too impulsive in giving their assistance to others and will often kick yourself when that advantage is taken too far. They realize afterwards that they are an easy target and people do indeed take them for a ride. This will of course make them very angry once you understand what a fool they have been. Try to assess the character and motives of others more carefully before quickly giving over your time, money or your heart.
There may be a difficulty in choosing between their head and their heart at times. Making decisions may not always be easy as you eventually get it that jumping the gun has caused you to make errors of judgment. But although they need to hold back at times you do run the risk of becoming a procrastinator by swinging too far in the opposite direction.
If you belongs to this sign try to balance your emotional and mental assessment problems, people and your life direction. Eventually you'll find the perfect balance between head and heart.
An important life lesson for you will be to trust in the process of life and not get too caught up in the decision-making process itself. Get your facts, get some feedback from those you trust even those who are perhaps professionals and then make a decision. Once this is done however you must let go and let life determine the outcome.
(b). Aries - Taurus Cusp: If you born in this period,the independent nature which is so predominantly a feature of your Aries character is heightened by being born at the tail end of your Sun sign. The next sign of the Zodiac is Taurus and if you were born between the 13th and 20th of April you will exhibit many of the traits of the bull.
Dependable, sometimes a stubborn but always loving your combined Sun sign of Aries and Taurus makes you are very reliable character indeed. You have a tenacity coupled with creative enterprise that can make you a very successful person not just in your professional endeavors but your personal affairs as well. You're always loyal to a tee and this you take from both Sun signs.
Taurus born individuals are very security conscious so you will always make an effort to ensure that your future financial circumstances are comfortable and will leave very little to chance. Because you have such a high level of Aries energy your industriousness along with your tenacity and dependability make you an awesome force to be dealt with.
You will always have money and even if in the early stages of your life you are not super wealthy, you will slowly but surely grow and their stake which will hold you in good stead later in your life.
One life lesson that you must heed is that of flexibility. You will run into many difficulties if you hold on to your position to strongly in the face of good advice. You must learn when to let go, when change is necessary and most importantly when you are wrong. By lending your ego get the better of you will suffer setbacks in your personal relationships. Humility is one of the important keywords are those of you born in this Aries and Taurus cusp time of the year.
TAURUS CUSP :Their are two types of Taurus Cusp i,e, Taurus - Aries Cusp & Taurus-Gemini Cusp
(a). Taurus - Aries Cusp: If you born in this Cusp you are fiercely independent having the additional character traits of the sign of Aries. This sign is the one previous to yours and if you were born between the 21st till the 28th of April you will exhibit many of the traits of the Ram.
As well as having the fiery aspects of the Martian sign Aries, you are dependable, somewhat stubborn it always extremely reliable and also loyal. You have an ability to express your creative desires with great energy and persuasion. You have immense amounts of energy to achieve your objectives but no one should ever cross your path as you have a combative and explosive streak to your nature as well.
Aries born individuals are very outspoken so you will always speak your mind even if for others this is uncomfortable. Because you have such a high level of Mars energy your drive and demands on others may be a little hard to cope with.
You will always have money and make a point to strive hard to achieve financial success and independence as well. Even if in the early stages of your life you are not super wealthy, you will slowly but surely grow and their stake which will hold you in good stead later in your life.
Try to learn the art of flexibility and don't butt heads with others. You may experience relationship problems if you are not more accommodating of the other person's opinion. Developing the art of listening will be one of your main lessons in life. Learning humility can be a key to achieving a greater level of harmony in your personal relationships-both social and marital.
(b). Taurus - Gemini Cusp: The tenacity and determination of your typical Taurus Sun sign is given an interesting intellectual twist by having Gemini as an influence on your personality. This means that if you were born in the last week or so of Taurus that is between the 15th until the 22nd of May you will have a mixture of influences from your Sun sign of Taurus as well as Gemini.
The typical Venus influence of your Taurus Sun sign is quickened by the Mercurial and Gemini influence. You have a curious nature and can use your imagination in a practical way. Unlike the typical Gemini who has difficulty in stabilizing their thought you are much steadier and have greater command over your thinking processes is. You will use these gifts to achieve success in life.
Although you still have the stability and tenacity of your Taurus Sun sign, you're also influenced by intellectual and curious Gemini. Your communication will be interesting and compassionate at the same time. You have many interesting things to teach others but have no time for impractical ideas that cannot enhance your life and provide the security you desire for your family and loved ones.
You're never in danger of being too impulsive or even outspoken as you have the ability to put yourself in another person's shoes and think about how they would react. Although you are clever in your speech you measure your words and are able to make a great impression on others. You give great advice and people come to you to receive assistance in working out their problems. Your wealth of experience is being shared and helps the community and world at large.
You don't have difficulty in making a decision but you like to look at all the alternatives before moving forward. Some people think you are indecisive but this is not the case. You are careful to not only assess a good outcome but will see what the down side of situation is as well. You cover all bases.
One area you need to be careful of is in holding too strongly to your opinions. Even if you are right on some issues there may be times when it is better to eat a little humble pie and keep the peace. This is an important life lesson and you must not get caught up in becoming an island unto yourself. Give others the opportunity to express their opinions and try to see things from the other person's point of view.
GEMINI CUSP: Their are two types of Gemini Cusp i,e, Gemini - Taurus Cusp & Gemini - Cancer Cusp
(a). Gemini - Taurus Cusp: Gemini's adaptability is nicely offset by the rock solid Taurus if you are born during the first week or so of Gemini (that is between the 22nd and 29th May)
Your ruling planets of Mercury for Gemini and Venus for Taurus will have an impact on your character and personality.
Gemini has an insatiable curiosity, high energy levels and creativity but this is tempered somewhat by the security required by Taurus. This enhances your imagination and gives you a drive to succeed that is not too thinly dissipated by your day-to-day activities.
By being born under the combination of Gemini and Taurus your chances of succeeding on a material level are greater than if you are not a cusp baby.
Being a cusp baby makes you a very sensitive and patient individual, and it doesn't bother you greatly if success doesn't immediately come to you. You are patient and hard-working enough to wait for that achievement to come to fruition.
You have a great understanding and appreciation of what your endeavors can bring and whilst you aware of and often seize opportunities that come your way, you will only do this if the practical Taurean can see some value in them.
You are kind-hearted and don't hesitate to hold out a helping hand to anyone who needs it. You are gentle and have a practical approach to assisting others and with your kind words and direct way of dealing with things, you get right to the heart of the problem.
You have a great work ethic and carry out the most menial of tasks with the same care and precision you would adopt for anything else you do. You are a perfectionist at heart, mainly due to the Taurean influence. You are modest about your achievements but the world will be a better place if you can rise above your hesitancy and share your talents with others.
(b). Gemini - Cancer Cusp: Here we have the head and logic of Gemini and the heart and soul of Cancer. This combination gives you a more emotional and sensitive side. Your feelings are also stronger with the Cancer influence.
If you were born between the 14th and 21st of June, you will tend to display many of the traits of the crab, the sign of Cancer.
This combination of two signs may give you difficulty in choosing between "your head and your heart" as the saying goes. As a Gemini you will naturally pride yourself on the fact that you can be rational about many of the decision you must make in your life. But add the emotional Cancer into the mix and you have a different way of looking at things.
CANCER CUSP: Their are two types of Cancer Cusp i,e, Cancer - Gemini Cusp & Cancer-Leo Cusp
Cancer traits may show up in a more moody Gemini who is not as easily able to separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak. This is especially so when it comes to matters of a romantic nature and may make your usual sharply focused decision-making a little cloudier. This could be an irritation for you, but this is a by-product of being a cusp baby.
You have strong mental traits Gemini but sometimes, emotional issues will fog up your brain. Yoga or meditation where you can chill out, learn to regulate your breathing and let your mind and emotions settle will help immensely. This will also help to balance you out so that you are not swinging like a pendulum from one extreme to the other.
The important thing you need to learn Gemini is how to keep your brain and emotions on an even keel. Find hobbies that will stimulate your mind but ones that will enable you to be completely at ease and able to rest.
With Cancer's connection to the Moon, which tends to heighten your sensitivity, don't get too upset when someone makes a thoughtless comment. You generally don't take kindly to criticism, even if it is constructive, and tend to see it rather as an attack on your nature or intention to do well by the world.
The emotional side of Cancer will give you an openness and warmth that other may want to take advantage of. You are generally rather perceptive when it comes to choosing friends and your intuition is spot on and will rarely let you down.
(a). Cancer - Gemini Cusp: If your birth falls between the 22nd and 29th or 30th of June you will possess qualities and characteristics of both Gemini and Cancer. Cancer, you are undoubtedly a feeling and emotional individual and added to this are the intellectual traits of Gemini which would tend to balance you out.
Gemini has a curiosity and mental agility that is hard to match but this can counteract some of the more emotional traits possessed by you Cancer. This could mean your mind clashing with your heart as the Gemini influence rules your head and the softness of Cancer rules your heart. It is quite likely that this will cause you to procrastinate in matters of the heart especially.
You are able to mediate for others as you have both the intellectual traits of Gemini as a communicator and the feelings and ability to understand others that can be attributed to Cancer. You are a loyal and loving friend and will always try to understand where the other person is coming from
The influence of Gemini could make you rather more excitable than you are comfortable with and perhaps unsettle you in some ways. This will be evened out by the Moon's influence and as the tides ebb and flow so will your moods. Some people may find this hard to deal with, but it is just part of the nature of a cusp baby.
You will be the one who people contact when they are caught in a situation they cannot resolve and it will be your wisdom that you bring to the table. Added to this is your knowledge and warmth and these attributes will put you at the top of everyone's list. It may not necessarily be where you want to be given that you don't like upsetting people, but your desire to help will override your hesitation.
Cancer you are able to take a balanced view and Gemini's intelligence will certainly help you out here. Having the head and the heart both working to capacity should be able to help anyone anywhere solve their problems and you will be much sought after for this talent. This trait may even open doors for you professionally later in life.
(b). Cancer - Leo Cusp: If you are born between the 16th or 17th to the 23rd July makes you a Cancer - Leo cusp baby. In your case the water sign of Cancer certainly does not put out the Leo fire but rather cools it just a little, and temper the exuberance of Leo.
Leo's fire will heat up your nature considerably Cancer but you must be mindful of not letting this spill over into your emotional life. You could become extremely demanding or even prone to dramatic outbursts, which are not usually your style, if you don't get your own way. This goes against the grain somewhat for you as you are at heart a mediator but this is what the fire of Leo can bring to your calm gentle world.
Cancer and Leo are both very loyal signs and you would certainly be a good friend to have. You are extremely faithful with those you love and in relationships or friendships your nearest and dearest will get to see this endearing part of your personality. They will actually get to peep inside the hard exterior that typifies the sign of Cancer and be privy to the wonderful soft interior that you possess.
With the influence of Leo your ideals are not always in keeping with the reality of your life. You'll always be surrounded by friends and family and seem to be constantly giving to others, but don't forget to nurture yourself along the way as well. This will keep you more in balance and take care of your compassionate nature.
Don't let Leo's influence burn you out as their enthusiasm can be at times overwhelming, when all you really want to do is crawl back into your shell and relax. The influence of Leo can make you feel a bit insecure at times as you prefer to know where you're going and when you're likely to get there.
LEO CUSP:Their are two types of Leo Cusp i,e, Leo - Cancer Cusp & Leo - Virgo Cusp
(a). Leo - Cancer Cusp ( July 22 - 29 ): Being born between the 22nd and the 29th of July makes you a rather unique Leo - born native. Apart from the above mentioned personality traits you also exhibit the sensitive characteristics of your previous star sign, which is Cancer.
While Leo is a masculine and fiery sign, Cancer is a feminine and watery one. What this will do is balance the aggressive masculine traits of Leo, making you a softer and, at times, moodier individual. You will tend to absorb the stresses of people and the environment around you and therefore you need to balance your life much more carefully than the typical full - blown Leo character.
Along with your loyal and generous nature, you're endowed with the intuitive qualities of Cancer. Not only that, both Leo and Cancer love people, but with this combination of zodiac signs, you will truly be a champion of the downtrodden and underprivileged. You have deep and compassionate interests in being of assistance to others.
Being born on this borderline cusp also indicates that you have a receptive as well as retentive memory. Your ability to recall facts and figures is notable; however, you can also get stuck on emotional problems, not knowing how to shake them off. Try to live more in the present.
Another aspect of the Moon-the ruler of Cancer-that sometimes doesn't work well for you is its maternal nature. You sometimes veer too close to the mothering/smothering lane, which can put people off.
In addition you love to mix with all sorts of people. Social activities are an essential ingredient in your development. You are a great success socially, because you can convey your wisdom to others so well-Cancerians have very expressive faces.
You're a great organizer; you love your home and family and tend to be flamboyant, but you are also very sentimental. Self - discipline is something you need to develop in your life, and also take care of your physical health, which will, on many occasions, be dependent upon your emotional state.
(b) Leo - Virgo Cusp ( August 16 - 23 ) :The other end of the spectrum is the Leo-Virgo cusp and if you're born between the 16th and 23rd of August you'll be prone to possessing some of the traits of the next star sign to you, which is Virgo. You may or may not know that Virgo is often fastidious, fault - finding and highly motivated by intellectual aspects of life.
With this combination you must be careful not to become too set in your ways and ingrained with ideologies and opinions that often make you appear a hard taskmaster. When you do express your criticism of something it's more than likely because you've analyzed and summed up a situation correctly before acting out your thoughts. While some people might find this an annoying habit, others will never hesitate to involve you in their work. These people recognize your natural talents and will invite you onto their social scene and include you in their personal projects, as your expertise is highly valued.
Serving others is usually seen as a menial and undesirable activity by most. You see it with a whole new perspective. It feels good for you to help others, to see them achieve what makes them happy and, if you can be part of that in some way, it gives you pleasure.
You make an excellent teacher because you have the knack of explaining the ins and outs of even the most complicated subject in a simple manner. Unlike others who try to impress with their knowledge, you are unassuming and genuinely work hard at being good at what you do.
The Virgo element makes you perceptive and caring of others, and you are sometimes in a better position to be of service to others by not exerting your strength but rather sitting back and allowing others to lead you. This is the unique opportunity you have by being born on the borderline of these two star signs.
Having this combination of traits makes you fiery and fond of displaying your creative and intellectual abilities. It also makes you very dependable, and friends will always be able to rely upon you.
Although you enjoy a full social agenda, the shy and retiring component of Virgo will often make you slip in and out of the social scene and this is probably a good thing because it will help balance your life.
VIRGO CUSP: Their are two types of Virgo Cusp i,e, Virgo - Leo Cusp & Virgo - Libra Cusp
(a). Virgo - Leo Cusp: If you happen to be born during the period of August 21st to the 28th, you're born on the borderline or cusp of the preceding sign of Leo, which is the 5th sign of the zodiac and your own, which is the 6th sign of the zodiac. As such, you are ruled by both the Sun and the planet Mercury. This makes you a person of sunny disposition with a strong intellectual leaning.
Being methodical, you're inclined to be a hard worker but unlike the typical Virgo, you have no problem standing out in the limelight and being the center of attention, taking full credit for anything and everything that you do.
With a mixture of Solar and Mercurial energies, you have a unique type of intuition which serves you well. You understand the people you come in touch with through amazing subtle intellectual flashes. You usually trust this.
Unfortunately, if you're not recognized for what you do, unlike the typical Virgo of your birth sign, you may start to feel inwardly unfulfilled and frustrated. This will impact on your health adversely so you must find away to bring this part of your nature out into the open so that you don't develop grudges and become a closed off person.
You have an unusual blend of extrovert and introvert qualities, which puts you in the perfect position of being able to associate with all sorts of people. There are times when others don't understand you because you swing between these two extremes of your personality.
(b).Virgo - Libra Cusp: If you were born between the 14th and the 21st of September, you fall in that area of the zodiac that is jointly governed by two star signs - Virgo and Libra. Your ruling sign is ruled by Mercury and Libra by Venus, which astrologically is an excellent combination, endowing you with both intellectual qualities as well as artistic and cultural interests.
You are an elegant Virgo, due to the influence of Libra, but also have a shrewd and analytical mind with great powers of perception and intuition. This combined influence endows you with considerable lack as you have the best of both worlds, namely the mental and emotional.
To explain a little about Libra is important here as it will endow you with many of the traits of that star sign. First and foremost, Libra needs to be seen to be beautiful and acceptable. Coupled with your predisposition to be highly self - critical, even over minor personality flaws within yourself, means that you could constantly struggle to be accepted by others, not because they don't like you but because you have an erroneous conception about how they see you. Try to accept yourself for who you are and then others will naturally accept you as well.
You're attracted to beautiful things and are quite likely a sensual and loving person. You have exotic tastes and love the best in furnishings and as far as personal grooming is concerned, you have a knack for looking really smart and elegant, but will never overdo it with gaudy looking attire.
You have a great imagination but have a tendency to stick to yourself. Some people might think that you're elitist and are snubbing your nose up at them, and this is why you need to prove them wrong. You should show those aspects of your personality that are kind, caring and service orientated. Others will soon realize that their judgment of you is rather harsh.
You need to be surrounded by quiet and soothing things. You need people in your life who understand you, are peaceful by nature and can share some of the artistic and cultural interests that you do as well.
Being ruled by Venus makes you prone to overindulgence in pleasure, food and other activities in life. As Mercury is a sensitive planet you need to be on guard against overdoing things and regulating your life with discipline.
LIBRA CUSP: Their are two types of Libra Cusp i,e, Libra - Virgo Cusp & Libra - Scorpio Cusp
(a). Libra - Virgo Cusp: The junction point of two star signs is called the cusp. This is a change over period when those born in this interval, in your case between the 21st and 29th of September, will partake of some of the characteristics of the previous star sign, namely Virgo.
The combined influence of the two ruling planets that is Venus the ruler of Libra and Mercury, the ruler of Virgo endow you with a very quick and analytical mind. You have an extended awareness and can apply this to both practical matters as well as spiritual insights as well.
Because you are such a rational person you take on the critical aspects of Virgo and can sometimes be extremely difficult to deal with. Your mind is in hyper mode much of the time and this can tire you out as well as get people off side.
Relationships are to be felt and ideas are there to be thought about. Try switching these around although it's not a bad idea to keep a balance of these other areas of your life and by doing so the Virgo - Libra combination will serve you well.
An important point I should make is that Virgo being the sign of health and Libra being the sign of sociability, one may affect the other. Living life too hard, on the razors edge is not a good thing for you. If you are as aware as what I've indicated, it will start to make sense when you're not living in harmony with what nature has intended.
You have a mixture of emotion and mentality and at times when you oscillate between the two. You try to make decisions with your feelings and try to analyse emotional relationships with your mind. Don't you think this is back to front Libra?
Your bodily signals will be quite clearly pronounced and you should listen to what these signals are telling you. Try to keep balance on your mind, don't let the critical side of Virgo overtake your sensibilities and be gentle on yourself because Virgo can be their own worst self critics. Love yourself Libra!
(b). Libra - Scorpio Cusp: The Libra - Scorpio cusp is an intense and passionate one. If you are born between the 19th and the 24th you'll have strong elements of Scorpio influencing your personality.
This is an exciting combination which endows you with both social graces and intense sexual magnetism. Those born in this cusp are probably some of the most sexually switched on individuals in the Zodiac.
You could easily persuade others to do whatever you want them to do but particularly in the bedroom. This combination makes you a conqueror of the opposite sex. And fortunately you may have troubles with commitment being born in this cusp and for that reason you'll need to delve into your past to see what elements of your upbringing have influenced you and may be working against your best interests.
Although you are overly critical, this usually comes from a deep level of devotion to friends and family and often people don't see this. Try to be softer in the way you handle the one's you love. Your desire to push people to bring out their best may backfire and cause you a lot of troubles.
You have a wonderful sense of intuition and your judgment is profoundly well developed. You could use both of these attributes to come up with conclusions that others are dazzled by. People do wonder how you come up with the ideas that you do and there is an element of mental brilliance associated with your birth during this time of the year.
There's a great impulsiveness in your nature which means you need to be careful about being overly self - indulgent or developing compulsions that are hard to overcome. Laziness too which is not normally evident in the Scorpio could sneak in to your personality so always fight the urge to lay back and become a couch potato.
Overall this cusp influence is excellent as it brings eventually peace and harmony and this Scorpionic determination to achieve what it is you so desperately desire in life.
SCORPIO CUSP:Their are two types of Scorpio Cusp i,e, Scorpio - Libra Cusp & Scorpio - Sagittarius Cusp
(a). Scorpio - Libra Cusp: If you were born in the period between October 24th and November the 1st you fall over the area of the zodiac that is jointly ruled by both Libra and Scorpio.
These star signs are ruled by Venus and Mars and Pluto, which gives you the traits of both signs of Libra and Scorpio.
The intensity of Scorpio is somewhat balanced by the sign of Libra and makes you even more attractive and pleasing to others, especially the opposite sex. You have great people skills and a need to help others through your intuitive understanding.
You love excitement and the pleasure seeking aspect of your nature combined with the social skills of Libra make you a social butterfly that can attract loads of friends, both in your social life and your professional arena as well.
The best and worst traits of both star signs will be exhibited by you and you have a great deal of determination, powerful self - control and excellent psychic and intuitive abilities as well. However, the social and superficial attributes of Libra are counteracted by the serious and philosophical characteristics of Scorpio.
You have extraordinary intelligence and insight into human nature but your sharp tongue and straight forward opinions make you sometimes feared by others as you don't mince words when you offer your critique on other personal or social and political issues.
Some people feel that you have an extraordinarily big ego, and you probably agree, but this doesn't worry you in the least. You have a charismatic personality and you expect to make some enemies on the way and aren't bothered as the huge number of friends you have as allies outdo the number of antagonists in the background.
You're an expert in communication and have wonderful reasoning power. You're a strong lover of family and support the people you love, even sacrificing anything and everything to maintain their security.
(b). Scorpio - Sagittarius Cusp: If you happen to be born between the 15th and the 22nd of November, you will partake of both traits of Scorpio and those of Sagittarius. Some astrologists may disagree with these dates but in actual fact you'll find that there are in practice, characteristic traits of both signs to a greater or lesser degree that you will possess.
Your intense Scorpio traits are finely balanced by the easygoing, magnanimous spirit of Sagittarius. Those of you born under this period of the zodiac are ruled by Mars, Pluto and Jupiter which is the ruler of Sagittarius. You have an optimistic nature but can also be rather aggressive in achieving your goals. You are constantly on the go, working with zeal to achieve your dreams.
Your magnetic personality is accentuated even further by popular and outgoing Jupiter. You have a brilliant sense of timing and can meet the right people at the right time who will help you get to where you're going.
You are an emotionally deep person and, coupled with the Sagittarian honesty and generosity you are the type of person that people trust easily and will open their hearts to. Even return will always be there to help others and are even considered somewhat of a teacher of sorts. You are constantly driving and advising others, friend or stranger alike, in the way they should best proceed in the midst of their life problems.
You are an extraordinarily independent person and hate to be contained by anyone. You are quite wild and fun loving but this should taper off as you get a little older.
You are excessive in your life and must be careful not to overdo things. You work, live and play hard. You need to pay more attention to your physical needs as at times you overdo it and your health is prone to suffer.
SAGITTARIUS CUSP:Their are two types of Sagittarius Cusp i,e, Sagittarius - Scorpio & Sagittarius - Capricorn Cusp
(a). Sagittarius - Scorpio Cusp: Being born on the borderline of the star sign before you, or after you, means that you have some of the qualities from that sign. This can be a subtle effect on your personality and character and you may have heard people mention that they are not "typical" of their sign and it is likely he or she will be a cusp baby.
If you are born on the borderline of Sagittarius and Scorpio, i.e. between the 22nd and 27th November, this has the impact on your personality of making you rather intense. The influence of Scorpio on the Sagittarian cusp baby is that some of your rather laid back attitude is diminished and makes you a bit more forceful than your typical Sagittarian brothers and sisters.
Jupiter, your Sagittarian ruler, combined with Mars and Pluto makes you a person who thinks not just big, but HUGE. There is no challenge too big for you to handle and in fact you thrive on tension - filled moments where you can shine by proving that you can cope with the pressures and show how capable you really are.
You are a 'big picture' person Sagittarius and have an almost unshakeable belief in yourself and your capabilities. You are able to create the life you feel you deserve and have tenacity and willpower that will put others in the shade, even other Sagittarians.
As both Scorpio and Sagittarius have intuitive powers, this gives you an edge in understanding human nature and the ability to manipulate the circumstances to your own benefit. As well as this you have an incredible sense of timing that enables you to capitalise on opportunities as and when they present themselves. You waste no time in achieving whatever success is put in front of you.
The combination of Sagittarius and Scorpio in your nature can cause inner conflicts for you from time to time. This shows up when people cross swords with you as you have a difficult time working out whether you should really wreak vengeance on them, which would be the way Scorpio would handle it, or go down the Sagittarian path of justice, mercy and a peaceful resolution.
You need to understand that in life being quietly assertive is often the best bet. There is no necessity to take things to extreme, whether you are thinking with the Sagittarian or Scorpio intellect.
Teaching comes easy to you and this is in part from the Jovian sign under which you are born. You can lead others to a sense of self - understanding with your wealth of experience and often, much of your knowledge is gained from your personal experiences rather from the words of others in book form. You have a wealth of personal and often humorous anecdotes that also serves as knowledge to others.
(b). Sagittarius - Capricorn Cusp: If you are born between 14th and 21st December you will have the Sagittarian/Capricorn influence. Unlike the previous Sagittarius/Scorpio blend of energies which makes for a rather intense and aggressive individual, you will be much more reticent and more conservative.
Individuals born on this cusp are likely to be a rather toned down version of the usually exuberant and enthusiastic 'take the world by the tail' type of Sagittarian. You will more than likely be cautious and prudent but at the same time you will love life but not make decisions quite as impulsively as the 'typical' Sagittarian.
You have a strong sense of security and like to hold your dollars more tightly, which is not a well - developed trait in most Sagittarians. They are more 'easy come, easy go' and think that tomorrow will take care of itself - somehow.
The ruling planets of Jupiter and Saturn, which rule Sagittarius and Capricorn respectively, are diametrically opposed forces in nature. This has the influence of making your personality move up and down from extreme highs to very flat lows. Your lesson in life will be to find the happy medium, and if this can be achieved you will experience life in a whole new way.
Although Sagittarians are trusting of others, with the impact of Capricorn on your temperament, you may hold back a little more until you get to know them better. Until you are comfortable with them you won't reveal too much about yourself and will keep them at arm's length.
Capricorn may make you overly concerned with money, thereby keeping the carefree side of Sagittarius at bay. This could cause conflicts by feeling guilty about not working hard enough or not having enough money as opposed to wanting to be free with your cash.
CAPRICORN CUSP: Their are two types of Capricorn Cusp i,e, Capricorn - Sagittarius Cusp & Capricorn - Aquarius Cusp
(a). Capricorn - Sagittarius Cusp: Being born on the cusp or the borderline of the previous sign to you is actually a karmic blessing Capricorn. These are the dates of the first few days of Capricorn, that is between the 21st and 28th of December.
If you are indeed born between these dates you borrow considerably from the star sign before you. And this means that the influence of Sagittarius and Jupiter soften your temperament, make you much more outgoing and jovial than the typical Capricorn. You will find in particular that your attitudes to money, materials and career are a little less important in you than the typical Capricorn.
Jupiter and Saturn are bio-metrically opposed planets that rule the cuspal period under which you were born. This means you oscillate at times between extreme optimism and dull despondency at times. Finding the balance between these two extremes will be a challenge for you cuspal Capricorn.
You have a sober mentality but you have a way of generously giving of your time and energy so that people are drawn to you. Moreover you measure your words before speaking and unlike the Sagittarian you are not likely to exaggerate or embellish your stories to the point where people don't believe or trust you.
Another important feature of your personality being born in this period is your diminished concern for money, status and the ambitious drive to achieve bigger and better things for the sake of simply using these things as a status symbol. You certainly are a hard worker but you also value the spiritual aspect of life and this is borne out by the strong influence that Jupiter has on your life and your personality.
(b). Capricorn - Aquarius Cusp:If your birth date falls between the 11th and 19th of January you are born in a very unusual junction and a very unusual junction point between the sign of Capricorn and that of Aquarius.
I say this is unusual because your conservative nature will be continually challenged by the influence of Aquarius and its governing planet Uranus. Aquarius is all about breaking free of the bonds of convention, pushing forward with new and revolutionary ideas and generally upsetting the natural order of things. This will be difficult for you to reconcile as Capricorn needs structure and traditional modalities in which to function peacefully.
AQUARIUS CUSP:Their are two types of Aquarius Cusp i,e, Aquarius - Capricorn Cusp & Aquarius - Pisces Cusp
(a). Aquarius - Capricorn Cusp: 'Diametrically opposed' is the best way to describe the signs of Aquarius and Capricorn. If you're born in the cusp interval which is the overlap of the two signs that is from the 19th till the 26th of January you partake of some of the elements of the preceding sign of Capricorn.
Having an Aquarius and Capricorn blend of energies as your star sign can present you with some difficult problems. You will desperately want to progress, move forward and be so different but will find the Aquarius element dragging you back into a mode of conservatism therefore you probably experience a lot of inattention.
You want to be progressive in every aspect of your life and love change but find the Capricorn side of your nature dragging you back into a mode of conservatism. On the one hand you want to forge forward with new ideas, but also hold fast to traditional ideals as well.
You'll be constantly mindful of the financial burden that this could place on you if you don't have the financial resources to do this. Finding a delicate balance will be part of your life's challenge.
Your mind and the way you relate to people will also be in a constant tug - of - war. At times you will want to give the other person the shirt off your back, generously helping them whenever and in any way you can as it is obviously a typically Aquarian trait. But the Capricorn in you will persistently be mindful of the consequences and brings with it a greater degree of reluctance to impulsively give away everything.
What I would say to you Aquarius is that you shouldn't fight with this set of diametrically opposed personality traits. In fact I think by accepting both star signs' qualities you will be in a position to be successful, secure, which is the Aquarius ideal yet at the same time capable of progressing and achieving your humanitarian ideals at the same time. This is great as you have the best of both worlds.
(b)Aquarius - Pisces Cusp: Pisces is the sign which follows Aquarius and if you happen to be born in that period of time between the 19th and 26th of February you exhibit the traits of both Aquarius and the sign of the fish, Pisces.
Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac and is often represented karmically as the last stage of human evolution. Pisceans exhibit a strong emotional and spiritual quality to their personalities and therefore you possess the intellectual and discriminative brilliance of your Aquarian sun sign with the added flavor of this intuitive and psychic connection that is brought to you by the cusp of Pisces.
One quality both star signs share is the desire to help others. Aquarius is somewhat rational in its planning and approach to the type of help that it can render whilst Pisces is more selfless and giving in the truest spiritual tradition of sacrifice as in the Christian schools of thought which of course are symbolized by the fish.
Please take care not to delude yourself into giving for the sake of giving. You must always exercise your Aquarian discrimination to qualify who is worthy of your help and who is simply a hanger - on. Giving to those that are worthy is the name of the game and I'm pleased to say that having the balance of Aquarius will help you make the right choices in providing assistance and new systems of thought to individuals and society at large. This is an excellent cusp to be born in.
The secret of understanding yourself if you are born in this period is to overcome your fear of the unknown. Aquarius will tear apart the attitudes and fixed opinions that you may have about the way things are and the way things should be.
The fear of letting go will be challenged by the planet Uranus and if you are able to overcome this inner tension and apprehension about what is likely to happen if you experience and live your life based upon your heart rather than your head, you will grow and develop in leaps and bounds. But again, I stress that this can only take place if you are prepared to break free of your own concepts and those conventional standards by which you have continued to live for so long.
Having the influence of Aquarius makes you original in thought, lateral in your decision making and a quirky individual to say the least. People enjoy your company because you are able to present that traditional side of life but often throw a spanner in the works when you exhibit this other rather unusual facet of your personality. You will always keep people guessing.
PISCES CUSP:Their are two types of Pisces Cusp i,e, Pisces-Aquarius Cusp & Pisces - Aries Cusp
(a). Pisces - Aquarius Cusp: If you were born between the 19th and 25th of February you were born under the cusp of Aquarius and Pisces. This means that you partake of some of the elements and personality traits of the previous star sign. Aquarius is a forward thinking and unconventional sign and therefore you're intuitive and mystical qualities are blended with this rather avaunt - grade element of the Aquarian temperament.
You have the ability to take traditional ideas and mold them into concepts that can be useful in helping others or an individual or even a group or communal basis. Working in humanitarian and spiritual organizations or hospitals will give you the opportunity to express much of this Aquarius - Pisces combination.
Because you are born with a mixture of air and water you sometimes find it difficult to balance the intellectual and emotional sides of your nature. Making decisions can be hard for you because you are so prone to wanting to make these decisions based upon your intuitive gut feeling. You know full well that you need to rationalize some things and to use your head but this you find hard at times. You may also find yourself thinking about how you feel or feeling about how you're thinking and this can become too much for you sometimes.
The typical Pisces is usually somewhat of a daydreamer so it's good that the intellectual and communicative aspects of the air sign of Aquarius are enmeshed in your Piscean blood. This gives you a more down to earth and expressive quality to the way you interact with others.
Being born under this blend of astrological signs is a blessing and gives you a special sort of destiny. You are a true helper, an intuitive healer and are able to soothe the wounds of your friends and people generally. Your destiny will make you sought after as a truly unconditional lover and friend.
(b). Pisces - Aries Cusp: If you are born between the 16th and 20th of March you draw in some of the fiery energies of the next zodiac sign to yours, Aries. This makes you a bolder sort of Piscean character with a mixture of the elements of water and fire. While as the typical Piscean can sometimes be indrawn and indecisive about which direction to take, the fire of Aries will make you more decisive and even sometimes aggressive in your approach.
Because you are primarily concerned with helping others and giving assistance to those who are less fortunate than yourself the strong ego quality of Aries will make it hard for you to balance self with others. There are times when you are swinging between sheer egotism and pure selflessness. To balance these two extremes in your nature may for many of you be a lifelong challenge.
You have a creative and enterprising nature and want to achieve something in the world but can also bring to that activity some wonderful spiritual and emotional qualities.
You must temper your ambitions however as your emotionalism may cause you to work too hard and at some point suffer the consequences of this through physical sickness. Once again if you are able to balance these driving needs and this emotional intensity you have a great chance of becoming successful and fulfilling yourself both in the world and within your own being.
