Gemini! About Your Sign...
Gemini, the sign of the Twins, is dual-natured, elusive, complex and contradictory. On the one hand it produces the virtue of versatility, and on the other the vices of two-facedness and flightiness. The sign is linked with Mercury, the planet of childhood and youth, and its subjects tend to have the graces and faults of the young. When they are good, they are very attractive; when they are bad they are more the worse for being the charmers they are. Like children they are lively, and happy, if circumstances are right for them, or egocentric, imaginative and restless. They take up new activities enthusiastically but lack application, constantly needing new interests, flitting from project to project as apparently purposelessly as a butterfly dancing from flower to flower. To them life is a game which must always be full of fresh moves and continuous entertainment, free of labor and routine. Changing horses in the middle of the stream is another small quirk in the Gemini personality which makes decision making, and sticking to a decision, particularly hard for them.
Since they lack the quality of conscientiousness, they are apt to fight a losing battle in any attempts they make to be moral (in the widest sense of the word). Their good qualities are attractive and come easily to them. They are affectionate, courteous, kind, generous, and thoughtful towards the poor and suffering - provided none of the activities resulting from expressing these traits interferes too greatly with their own lives and comforts. They quickly learn to use their outward attractiveness to gain their own ends, and when striving for these they will use any weapon in their armory - unscrupulous lying, and cunning evasiveness; escaping blame by contriving to put it on other people, wrapped up in all the charm they can turn on. In their better moments they may strive to be honest and straightforward, but self-interest is almost always the victor. If things go against them, they sulk like children.
Also like children, they demand attention, admiration, and the spending on them of time, energy and money, throwing tantrums if they don't get what they want. They reflect every change in their surroundings, like chameleons, and can become pessimistic, sullen, peevish and materialistically self-centered if circumstances force them to struggle in any way. If the conditions of life become really adverse, their strength of will may desert them entirely. They can become uncertain of themselves, either withdrawn, or nervously excitable worriers, sullenly discontented, hard and irritable, with "Self" looming ever larger in their struggles. On the other hand their versatility can make them very adaptable, adjusting themselves to control the world around them by means of their inherent ingenuity and cleverness.
Most Gemini have a keen, intuitive, sometimes brilliant intelligence and they love cerebral challenges. But their concentration, though intense for a while, does not last. Their mental agility and energy give them a voracious appetite for knowledge from youth onward, though they dislike the labor of learning. They easily grasp almost everything requiring intelligence and mental dexterity, and are often able to marry manual skills to their qualities of mind. Their intellect is strongly analytical and sometimes gives them so great an ability to see both sides of a question that they vacillate and find it hard to make decisions. But their intelligence may very well be used to control and unify the duality of their natures into a most efficient unit. If faced with difficulties, they have little determination to worry at a problem until they find a solution - they will pick the brains of others. In their intellectual pursuits, as in other departments of their lives, they risk becoming dilettantes, losing themselves in too many projects which they follow until they become difficult.
The Gemini is bright and aware. Like speedy Mercury, she seems to know exactly what is going on and where things are at all times. She enjoys helping others, and takes pride in her many abilities. Like a magician, she can juggle multiple tasks with ease, and is known for her skill and dexterity. She may be a writer, humorist, politician, handyperson, electrician, teacher, reporter or office worker. Gemini is practical, yet flighty. She needs movement, communication and travel lest she become bored.
The Gemini is a kind of dual soul. She can possess two opposing thoughts simultaneously, and reconcile them perfectly in her mind. She often voices different ideas and opinions and seems to be changing her mind, but in reality she is merely sharing her musings and decision making processes. To the ever positive thinking Gemini, every option has its advantage, and choices can take time.
Gemini has the unique ability to see both sides of any situation, and this makes her an excellent mediator or debater. She has a great understanding and appreciation for human nature. She loves people and values friendship, and so may actually go in two or more directions at once in order to satisfy everyone. If anyone can pull it off, it's Gemini. She is a natural politician.
In love, the Gemini's partner must be able to keep her entertained. She needs conversation, fun, changes and mental stimulation. She can be counted on to be clever, insightful, funny, witty and always a helpful friend.
LIBRA RISING (also Venus rising)
The woman with Libra Rising views the world as a place of kindness and beauty. She looks for friendship and partnership, and aspires to be fair and diplomatic. Social graces are important to Libra Rising. She is charming on first meeting, and naturally attractive to people of either sex. She is drawn toward whatever or whomever may offer her comfortable, stylish, even luxurious surroundings. She likes to make herself and everyone around her feel at peace.
Libra Rising is here to model cooperative behaviour and create beauty and harmony.
The Boar
Character
You are very suspicious and never trust other people, preferring to make decisions without the advice of others. Forsaking the crowds which make you nervous, you enjoy a lonely and peaceful life.
If you were born in a Year of the Pig, you probably think well of everyone. You don't worry about things, you let life take its course, and you're calm and laid back. Your philosophy is to enjoy life to the full, and you are sure that all will be well in this best of all worlds. You'll give people the benefit of the doubt. Kind and generous, always pleased to help others, especially those in real need, you will still look after number one, and if someone pushes you beyond the limit, your temper is fearful.
If you were born in a Year of the Pig, you will get on well with those born in the Years of the Tiger, Rabbit, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster and Dog, and may have difficulty with those born in the Year of the Dragon.

If you were to think of your Sun sign as your soul -- your inner personality and potential -- and your Moon sign as your heart -- your emotional core -- then you could say that your rising sign is your physical self or the face you present to the world.
The sun (to integrate) in Gemini (Versatile and Variable).
You are a thinker rather than a doer (air). You are able to turn your hand to new things easily (versatile). You are a good communicator, but might tend to jump from one subject to another (variable, mutable). You can, however, be logical rather than emotional (air). You may tend to make many short journeys. You may be a good speaker, and witty (air), You may be a different person for different people, changing your communication to fit the other person (Twins).
If your Rising Sign is Libra (Diplomatic and Harmonious)
It's hard for anyone to say 'no' to you. You seem so charming and persuasive, people can't help but accommodate you! You likely look smashing even if you're just running to the market for milk. You may seem outwardly indecisive, but you're so irresistible that you'll find those around you more than happy to make up your mind for you. Keep vanity and sulkiness -- two less attractive Libran qualities -- in check. Luckily, Libras avoid conflict at all costs -- expect tons of harmony, fun and lots of carefree communication!
Boar or Pig same thing
Contrary to its rather negative reputation in the West, the Pig of Chinese Astrology may be the most generous and honorable Sign of the Zodiac. Pigs are nice to a fault and possess impeccable manners and taste. They have so much of the perfectionist in them that others may be inclined to perceive them as snobs, but this is a misconception. Pigs are simply possessed of a truly luxurious nature, one that delights in finery and riches (in surroundings, food, lovemaking and otherwise). This Sign believes in the best qualities of mankind and certainly doesn't consider itself to be superior. Pigs also care a great deal about friends and family and work hard to keep everyone in their life happy. Helping others is a true pleasure for the Pig, who feels best when everyone else is smiling.
A Pig with no one around to appreciate its giving nature is a sad sight. Pigs are so magnanimous they can appear almost saintly; this can lead some less-than-well-intentioned souls to stomp all over this Sign, and the bad news is, the Pig will take the blows! Pigs make great companions in part because of their refusal to see the more negative or base qualities in a partner, but that rose-colored view can lead to this Sign's allowing itself to be taken advantage of. Contrary to their seemingly benign dispositions, however, Pigs can be quite venomous in response to being crossed by a lover, friend or business partner.
Pigs are highly intelligent creatures, forever studying, playing and probing in their quest for greater knowledge. They can be misinterpreted as being lazy, however, due to their love of reveling in the good stuff; this Sign could happily spend hours on end making love, napping, taking a long bubble bath or dallying over an incredible spread of rich foods. Pigs tend to make wonderful life partners due to their hearts of gold and their love of family. Even so, Pigs can be rather exclusive, choosing to spend time with those who will appreciate them most and ignore the rest of the populace. Pigs would do well to realize that there's more to life than being needed. When they open up their world to a diverse group of people, they will truly bloom.
The most compatible match for a Pig is the Rabbit or the Sheep.
Pig Overview
The Pig is the last of the 12 signs, so maybe it should not come as a surprise that the Pig just can't catch a break. True it's your year, but unfortunately there are many unlucky stars in your palace. That 49% rating is an average that masks the fact you are likely to have some very good and bad luck this year.
You only have two extremely good months this year, although you have many good to very good ones. You may not have a lot of great opportunities, but there should be plenty of decent ones. Water -- your fixed element -- and Fire spell disaster, so don't take any unnecessary risks.
Pig Rating
49% (6 favorable and 6 unfavorable months)
Pig Career
Steady progress is your most likely outcome. Those Pigs in academia, however, could really shine.
Pig Relationships
It's a wonderful time for family, including a new addition. Your love life should show some improvement. Certainly your passions are going to be aroused. The single Pig is likely to find a new love interest.
Pig Health
Alas, Fire and Water (your fixed element) spell disaster. Actually we're not talking disaster here, but we are talking problems. Either an existing condition is likely to worsen, or you could find yourself with a new issue. Stress and high blood pressure are two possible candidates.
Pig Wealth
It's ironic that the Pig brings luck to many other signs but not to itself. You're not really in danger of a big loss, but don't buy any lottery tickets, either.
Love & Blessings
