The Basics

I have always been a big believer in Astrology. Ever since I was young, I have loved the stars, both looking up at them and reading about them. I also love to learn about what makes a person them, and why I am the way I am. Add up my love for the stars, and my nosy desire to learn about people, and you get Astrology. Astrology has helped me try to understand myself, my friends and family when I simply couldn't. It seems silly, but it's pretty cool when you read about it.

I myself am a Gemini, and let me tell you, I have heard so many jokes about running for the hills when you hear someone is a Gemini, more than any other sign. One side of me thinks that, if you do that, you're missing out on knowing some wonderful people but the other side of me really doesn't blame them–we Geminis can be crazy.

... I guess, right there, I have made the 'two-personality/twin-Gemini' description proud.

Over the years I've dug extremely deep into learning about my sign, and I can confidently say that my sign is 100 percent me, almost so that it's a tad bit scary.

There are so many factors that go into Astrology, like whether your sign is a fire, water, air or earth sign, if it is a mutable, cardinal or fixed and what planet rules your sign. Knowing these will explain the surface of your sign, or really, the surface of you.

Here's a little cheat sheet for you.

Once you find that out, it all comes down to the exact time when you were born. That information is the icing on top of the cake, it doesn't just explain the sign itself, it explains why you are the way you are, your core. It's actually fairly interesting once you read about it.

Astrology Speed Dating

I recently stumbled across a video on the GO90 App from Elite Daily. It's called 'Astrology Speed Dating.' Whether you believe in Astrology or not, you'll enjoy this.

They made this video because their article, 'What Your Zodiac Sign Says About Your Dating Habits' had over 10K shares. They wanted to dig deeper into why that was, so they brought in Astrology expert, Candace Marie from House Of Intuition. First, they talked all about the different aspects of the signs and how your sign may affect your dating life. Then, they put it to the test by sending the two hosts on some speed dating fun.

It's interesting to see the different signs interact and how you can clearly see the differences in chemistry between the 'good matches' and the 'bad matches.'
