The Taurus Ascendant endows you with practicality, self-assertion

diplomacy and an affable disposition. You are quiet natured and not easily
roused to temper. However, once your passion is roused you can be very
dangerous - the raging bull. There is a tendency to laziness and an over
attachment to material values. Qualities lacking to some degree, which may
be found in your partner are aggressiveness, sympathy for others, passion,
energy and a capacity for sustained work.
Taurus on the ascendant makes you graceful, affectionate, and a lover of
the good life - good food, good sex, and a nice home to live in. You are very
easy going until pushed, and then the bull shows, unreasonable, often with
an uncontrollable temper ! There is often a talent towards singing or at least
public speaking. A Taurus ascendant can also make you overindulge, that's
what Venus loves to do, and can often cause a weight problem since you
tend to be lazy. That favorite easy chair or futon is just the place you relax and easily fall asleep on.

Gemini
The Gemini Ascendant endows you with an inquiring nature fond of study
and intellectual debate. An inner restlessness keeps you perpetually
employed in research or other work. The danger lies in overstrain, the
exacting of too much from body and spirit. You can on occasion be irritable
and downright rude. Qualities lacking to some degree, which may be found
in your partner are generosity, honesty of purpose and true wisdom.
Gemini on the ascendant makes you witty and clever, but also high strung
and quickly bored. You love a lot of action around you and can keep up
where others would quickly fall behind. Even in the middle of chaos, you
will know where everything is and what's going on around you. The more
hustle and bustle the better. Geminis have to communicate and like good
reporters and writers. Since Geminis are so high strung, they often have
two jobs. Physically you are trim since you burn off so much nervous
energy. Like a hummingbird flitting from flower to flower as quickly as
possible to get the job done and moving to the next, remember to take a
moment to smell phe flower and enjoy the colors. You like a fast-paced life,
but don't let it pass you by.

Cancer
The Cancer Ascendant endows you with a sympathetic, idealistic and
sensitive nature capable of much emotional warmth. There is a need for
domesticity and a happily family life where your nurturing quality can find
expression. Emotional experiences are all important and on occasion they
may dominate your life, for better of for worse. A shy, sensitive and timid
nature makes you vulnerable to emotional pain. Other dangers are
moodiness, fantasising, restlessness and a predisposition to hypochondria.
Qualaties lacking to some degree, which may be found in your partner are
practicality, perseverance and ambition.
Cancer on the ascendant makes you moody, like the ocean tides, changing
often. Since Cancer is rulyd by the moon, you are also very protective of
yourself and others. You are probably the mother of your circle of friends.
You are also easily influenced by the energies that surround you since you
are psychic - even though you may not realize it or even allow yourself to
tune into it. In fact, you probably draw into your shell, like a crab, protecting
yourself whenever you may feel threatened. If you find yourself around
negative people or an a negative situation , leave !!! You are very
vulnerable and it is best to be with those who are a positive influence on
you and will not abuse your shyness or take you for granted. Your mood
swings can be so overpowering that it is easy for you to be at the height of
elation at the beginning of the day, and in great despair and depression by
the end of the day. Keep you moods swings in check.

Leo
A Leo Ascendant endows you with courage, kindness and an air of
authority. Friends find you courteous and generous. Yet on occasion you
may allow uncertainty, conceit or inaccessibility to spoil your social image.
Impulsiveness is a further danger. Qualities lacking to some degree, which
may be found in your partner are originality, intuitive wisdom and a true
universal love for mankind.

Leo on the ascendant makes you proud, courageous and generous. You
carry yourself in a manner that commands respect. You are not arrogant
(unless your ascendant is afflicted and makes you pompous) and your
sunny disposition makes you have a large circle of friends. You are
popularity. You have a quick temper, but usually one loud roar, and all is
forgiven and forgotten. You do not hold a grudge. You are loyal to your
friends and even if you rose to the very top of stardom, you would not
forget your old pals. Your flair for the dramatic would make you a good
actor/actress. Be careful though because you are so sure of yourself, it's
easy to forget your limitations. We all have them. These are not faults, just
where you need to draw the line between courage and carelessness.

Virgo
A Virgo Ascendant endows you with an unemotional, self-reliant, calm,
intelligent, inventive, and systematic approach to life. You have a sound
business sense and a good eye for detail. An overly critical attitude; egoism
and coldness towards others may be the negative traits. Qualities lacking to
some degree, which may be found in your partner are sensitivity,
imagination and humility.
Virgo on the ascendant makes you very methodical and systematic in all of
your affairs. You are extremely thorough and take care of every last detail.
If not careful,this can make you too picky and find that this nitpicking makes
you lose sight of the overall picture. The tiny loose thread that you pull on
will totally en gross you until the entire length of thread has been pulled out
and you now have a jacket without a sleeve and the entire lining is loose.
You can easily become a workaholic so remember to put aside time in your
daily reminder for yourself. Virgo's are never mean, even when they
criticize, and are usually very good-looking. Virgo's make excellent
researchers, a teacher or a statistician.

Libra
A Libra Ascendant endows you with a courteous, kind, honest and sensitive
disposition with a strong sense of justice. You strive for the beautiful and
more refined things of life and will evade unpleasantness at all costs.
Apathy, lack of perseverance and emotional fragility are the dangers.
Occasionally good music, rest and seclusion are needed to restore inner
equilibrium. Qualities lacking to some degree, which may be found in your
partner are will-power, daring, assertiveness and courage.
Libra on the ascendant makes you good at debating without provoking a
fight. There are more lawyers and diplomats than any other sign with a
Libra ascendant or a Libra sun. You like to keep yourself and your
surroundings neat and orderly. You are gracious, sociable and diplomatic.
Your diplomacy is a great asset, however remember to speak the truth and
not say what you think others want to hear. You are often afraid to make
waves thus changing the status- quo and creating a temporary imbalance.
Remember the scales of justice need to be tipped just the tiniest bit every
so often to make sure that they are accurate. Also, remember that it's o.k.
to show others assertiveness - don't wait for someone to promote you, you
are worth it to toss your name in with the others seeking higher positions.
Don't take a back seat to those pushy Arians!

Scorpio
A Scorpio Ascendant endows you with strong willpower, much physical
energy, passion, determination and deep emotions. You look after your
friends and go out of your way to help those in need. Although you can be
very rude on occasion, you also have a predisposition to jealousy. Qualities
lacking to some degree, which may be found in your partner are selfreliance, efficiency in practical matters and diplomacy.
Scorpio on the ascendant makes you deeply emotional, yet you very rarely
show any emotions, very mysterious because you don't let people into your
innermost thoughts, and boy oh boy are you vindictive! Don't ever cross a
Scorpio. A Capricorn will wait an eternity to see you fall from graces, but a
Scorpio will push you off the hill and be there waiting to see you land flat on

your face. You are so secretive that you don't brag, this will make others
unsure if you actually set them up for the fall or not. Scorpios are
suspicious of everyone, in control of every situation and are rarely caught
off guard. You usually get exactly what you want. You are protected by your
tough exterior and when the going gets tough, you are the one who will get
the job done, come hell or high water, and don't let anyone tell you that you
can't !!. You will find anyone's weakest point and blind side them with that
mighty Scorpio sting. When the dust has settled, you will still be standing.
Count on it !

Sagittarius
A Sagittarius Ascendant endows you with optimism, enthusiasm for life,
good humour and tolerance for others. There may be love of travel and a
desire for higher education and religious or philosophical study. On
occasion you are inclined to be irritable, impulsive and combative. Qualities
lacking to some degree, which may be found in your partner are versatility
of mind and a non-conformist/non-dogmatic approach to life.
Sagittarius on the ascendant makes you friendly and free loving so that you
can take everyone and everything for granted. If your friends were there for
you, remember to return the favor. Sagittarians don't like to listen to
negative people or have to deal with their problems. You are quick to brush
people off without a second thought. You don't want to deal with your
problems, never mind someone else's. You would tell your friend who has
the problem to just forget it and it will go away! You are very blunt and your
speech is direct and to the point. Sagittarians are nature lovers and great
philosophers. You can easily assimilate complex situations, but mundane
details bore you. You probably have large open spaces for your home and
your office. You hate restrictions of any kind. In fact if a partner is
suspicious or jealous, they will not last long with you. You love to travel and
if you feel any threat to your freedom, you may just not return from that trip
for a long time!

Capricorn
A Capricorn Ascendant endows you with the ability, tact and talent to cope
with serious practical issues responsibly. There is a capacity for hard work
and in time you will acquire a self-disciplined and methodical approach to
life's problems. You are ambitious and have desires for power and social
status. Providing you do not allow a negative, pessimist and on occasion,
depressive attitude to cloud your judgement social success will ultimately
be achieved. Qualities lacking to some degree, which may be found in your
partner are sensitivity to the problems of others and emotional warmth.
Capricorn on the ascendant makes you serious, responsible and patient.
You are very ambitious, yet the amount of money you make means less to
you than the degrees of achievement you have earned. You are a
perfectionist always keeping yourself in check. People may think that you
are a snob, but you are actually very shy. You probably inherited the task of
caring for younger siblings who were allowed to play while you worked and
studied. You often feel unappreciated yet unworthy of fun. Even as a child
you felt older and were treated older than your years. Your patience will pay
off in climbing the corporate ladder, for any setbacks make you even more
determined, and you do not give up; you are not easily discouraged. You
come across as being coldhearted, even to those who are close to you.
You just don't get all mushy. Remember that even though you don't have to
jump and shout to the world your feelings for someone, they would
appreciate hearing it from you. Especially your children.

Aquarius
An Aquarius Ascendant endows you with idealism, sociability, sympathy
and a magnetic social presence. Friends are all important as you believe
strongly in the brotherhood of man concept. There is an innate need to
study the more profound aspects of life - metaphysics may attract. On
occasion, others may view you as a little eccentric and changeable.
Qualities lacking to some degree, which may be found in your partner are
self-confidence and courage.
Aquarius on the ascendant makes you unique. Ruled by unpredictable

Uranus, you are independent, ingenious, detached, creative and very

spontaneous. You act on a spur of the moment, on a let's go here now
basis. It is captivating to some and very confusing to others. Aquarians are
humanitarians, friendly to all, but seem cool and distant. You treat everyone
equally. Remember that the kindness you show to others, when
reciprocated, should be graciously accepted. Do not push others away.
There is a difference between independence and isolation. At work, you
enjoy being your own boss. You are stubborn and don't like being told what
to do. You would be much more productive if allowed to do things your own
way. You have a creative and scientific mind and would do well in
technology, the airline industry or as the administrator for a charity. There
you could really shine.

Pisces
A Pisces Ascendant endows you with sensitivity, gentleness, sympathy for
others, artistic ability and a harmonious disposition. You enjoy peace and
seclusion and the more simple things of life. Others may take advantage of
your kind and self-sacrificing nature. On occasion you can be lazy, wasteful
and dreamy wishing to escape the harsh realities of life. Qualities lacking to
some degree, which may be found in your partner are self-reliance,
practicality and a calm, intelligent approach to life's problems.
Pisces on the ascendant makes you extremely imaginative. You are the
daydreamer of the zodiac. You are the romantic poet, the crooning singer,
the dramatic actor, or the fashion designer. Whatever you choose to do, it is
creating something beautiful. Since you are terrible at organizing your
thoughts as well as finances, it may be wise to hire an accountant.
Pisceans also make excellent nurses, counsellors and religious followers.
Do not let others take advantage of you though; you are a soft touch and
could easily be persuaded to donate all of your money, or to be bullied by
others. You react to unkind words and even tragedy's on the news affect
you so much that you can become ill. You are quick to find the easy way to
cope, the bottle of pills, the bottle of alcohol, overeating, etc. If you feel ill,
Pisceans respond amazingly well to holistic healing as an alternative to
prescribed medications. Since Pisces rules the feet, it is very important to
have comfortable shoes and to take care of your feet. Being barefoot
appeals to you the most.

In classical feng shui applications, the Horse brings the energy of success, fame, freedom and
speed.
Thus, the horse feng shui symbol is often used in the Fame area of the Bagua (South), as well as
the Career area (North)
The image of a horse (or several horses) be it in art, a photo or a sculpture is often used
in business and office feng shui applications.
Looking for a new job can be a very stressful time, no matter you are at the start of your
professional career or are quite established in your field. A job is not only a means of income, but
also a form of social inclusion and affirmation of one's talents and abilities.
Can feng shui really help you find a new job? A job that will make you happy and satisfy your
professional, emotional and financial needs? Yes, it can. The emphasis, though, is on the
word help, as you know that you are the one who has to make things happen.
Hanging chimes around the house instead of sending resumes or meeting with the right people will
be a huge waste of precious time. Feng shui should be used only in addition to yourjob search
efforts.
There are many feng shui cures to help you advance in your career. However, you are the one who
has to do the hardest part - the part of defining what is it that you really want to do for living.
One feng shui cure to help define, or bring clarity to your career path, is to hang a big map of the
world in the North area of your space.

Here are some of the most popular feng shui career tips, or tips to help you find a job.
Display images of people whose career & professional life you admire in the North area
ofyour Bagua. The North area is connected to the flow of energy in your career life, also called
Path in Life.

You can also display these images in the Northwest - the Helpful People and Blessings feng
shui area - that also needs to be activated when changing careers and looking for a new job.

Display Metal feng shui element art or items in the Northwest, be it a metal bell, or an
important (career-wise) photo in a metal frame.

A water feature or a mirror in the North is excellent, or add colors blue and black.
As you are strengthening the Career area of your Bagua (North), do not forget to pay attention to
the Money and Abundance area, too (the Southeast area of your home.)
Find out your Kua Number and activate your personal direction for success. You can also apply, if
so inclined, some traditional feng shui good luck cures.
Be sure your front door is not blocked, your closets are not overstuffed, you have open space
under your bed and minimum clutter in your home, especially in your bedroom.
Most importantly, do not doubt that you will get the job you deserve. See it often in your mind's
eye and take good care of your own energy by exercising, eating well and spending time in a good
feng shui environment.

Keep a positive, optimistic attitude and you will get the job you deserve. It might come in a very
unexpected way, so stay happy and stay alert.
Best of luck to you!

Feng Shui Tip: Finding your ideal job

In these times, one of the most prevalent questions I get

on consultations is, Can Feng Shui help me find a new job? And to that I respond with a resounding,
YES!
Feng Shui can help to get the energy in your career life moving through two main steps. First, using
Feng Shui will help to focus your intention on what it is you wish to create and whenever your
intention is clear and focused, miracles occur. Second, using Feng Shui can help to clear the pathways
of energy into your career life on the physical realm to invite in that ideal job.
Lets discuss some tips about focusing intention in the career life area first. Try a few of these ideas to
get clear on what you wish to manifest in terms of a job:
1.

Write out your ideal job description in as much detail as possible literally as if it were the
sign-on agreement for your new job.

2.

Take it one step further and write the classified ad for this idea position and print it out (well
use it in the second part).

3.

Re-tool your resume to apply specifically for the job description youve created.

4.

Write out a letter of recommendation from a real or imagined mentor suggesting you for that
job.
Now that were clear on the job that we are looking for, lets go for the second part of the process and
open up some energy pathways for that job to come to you using Feng Shui:

1.

Using the print out of the classified ad youve created, post it on the inside of your front door this energetically tells the universe that you are inviting this specific job into your life. (You can also do
this with other job classified ads that you find as well search through monster.com until you find
your ideal job and print it out and use it.)

2.

Take 5 copies of your resume and tack/tape/place them above your front door on the inside of
your house. 5 is a number that generates excitement, breaks through boundaries and generates energy
in all directions.

3.

Create a clear, well-lit path to your front entrance. Be sure that there arent any obstacles or
debris blocking energy from coming to your front door. Ideally, the path is curved and not a direct
shot, which can be created with some garden or lawn ornaments.

4.

Clear the area just inside the front door so that whatever/whomever enters feels welcome and
has space to enter calmly and gently. This may mean clearing off the drop table or moving objects that
obstruct the entrance from the inside, adding overhead lighting or a welcoming picture or art piece.
Once youve performed the steps towards clarifying intention and the actions to get the chi moving
into your career area, reinforce these with a visualization of yourself at your new job, happy, satisfied,
fulfilled whatever feelings that come up for you. Take a moment to feel this new reality and each
time you enter or exit through the front door take a moment to recall this feeling and enjoy it again.
Ive seen miracles happen when people follow these steps and Id love to hear back from you any
experiences you have to share. Wishing you all the contentment that comes from following your own
life path!
