Libra’s Secret Work Advantage

Use your exemplary people skills in a new, beneficial way…

Some people take seminars in order to learn how to get along with bosses and co-workers (and still never get it right), but not you! Your people skills are unmatched. You could sell air conditioners to polar bears in winter.

You avoid water-cooler politics like the plague. Your collection of colleagues, associates, friends, and acquaintances grows by the minute. When the job market is weak and you have to look for work, know that you’re sitting on a gold mine. Don’t be shy about name-dropping, schmoozing, and using every connection you have to reach your career goals.

Libras Give Back!

You’re the sign whose gift that keeps on giving!

If you’re true to your sign, your home and surroundings reflect your design sense and love of luxury (purchased at bargain prices, of course). Now that you’ve treated yourself to some of life’s finer things, maybe you should turn your attention to spreading the wealth?

We’re not talking about giving away the family fortune! Perhaps a friend has a pending wedding, birthday, or other special occasion. Surely he or she would be thrilled to receive a hand-picked gift that exemplifies your refinement and taste? Put your mind to it and see what you come up with!

 

Scorpio: Born to Break the Rules

This isn’t always a bad thing…

Let´s face it: Scorpios are smart, powerful, and amazing people, but are not the kind people you think of as angelic, harmonious, or gentle. You might be breaking every single rule your yoga, social ethics, or meditation teacher has been talking about. And you know what, it´s totally okay! Here´s why:

You´re too practical or direct in relationships. This saves you a lot when it comes to picking lovers and friends. Life is too short, and you want to focus your energy on the right people.

You´re probably pretty competitive. This quality doesn´t only make you successful in your profession, it also makes you attain every single goal you set your sight on.

You are stubborn. People say this is a defect. They don´t know this is actually a fantastic quality. You don´t give up!

Scorpio Hitting the Dating Point

What’s next in the love game, Scorpio?

All you´ve done is look for the person who is unafraid of being with someone as emotional and intense as you. Someone whose waters run as deep as yours, someone to trust, love, and confide in. You know that person is out there somewhere, you can feel it. But has this quest turned you into a serial dater? Ouch, that term just sounds bad, right?

The truth is, the line could get really thin when it comes to looking for the one, and you could end up just dating a ton of people in the process. So how do you know if you have crossed them? Fortunately, if you have learned to listen to your gut, you probably know how to avoid falling into the game of going on dates with anyone who asks you, or just because you want to see what happens.

But hey, no one is here to judge you, Scorpio, and maybe you are not looking for a serious commitment and you really are just focusing on what you do best: exuding that shimmery sensuality to everyone that can handle your powerful allure.

Scorpio’s Competitive Edge

Scorpio´s most successful side…

You are often seen as one of the most competitive signs out there, but unlike Aries or Leo, you are an individual who enjoys self-competition more than competing against others. In every aspect of your life, you enjoy attaining your own goals and the feeling of success that comes with doing something better than last time.

Therefore, even if you´re actually competing against other, you might do better by forgetting about them and trying your best to outdo yourself. Like a real Scorpio winner once said, “there are two kinds of people, those who do the work and those who take the credit…try to be in the first group; there is less competition there.”

Sagittarius, the Language Guru

No one knows words like the Archer…

Everybody knows you love talking (and talking), but what they may not know about you is how much you love language itself. Not just using it, but studying it. You know that etymology isn’t the study of bugs. If, as you believe, life is in the journey and not the destination, enrich yours by learning a new language. It could even be something you do with your partner. Besides the depth and richness that knowing Greek, Welsh, Icelandic, or Hindi would add to your travels, you and your companion will have a secret language all your own at home, too!

You Can Have it All, Sagittarius

You’re the sign that can have it all it all, Sagittarius!

You don’t have to sacrifice love for freedom if love is truly what you crave. A relationship doesn’t have to equal restriction. There’s a lot to be said for focusing your attention on one relationship rather than seeing how many you can shoehorn into a lifetime. Your true partner will understand your quest to explore, travel, and experience life. And when said partner isn’t with you, he or she will be waiting patiently for your return. Yes, wild horses running free are beautiful, but that doesn’t mean that all domesticated horses are unhappy!

How to Heal a Sagittarius

Skip the pain killers—a Sag only needs this to heal…

Sore from your last workout, race, or cross-country hike? You probably hate the medicine-y smell of topical pain-relieving creams you get at the drugstore, but you can find a way to ease sore muscles right in your own kitchen.

Studies show that tart cherry juice is highly anti-inflammatory. Just sip two, ten-ounce glasses a day to relieve any damage. It even works before a strenuous workout. Try it before participating in a race or another event (that triathlon perhaps?) to stave off post-competition aches and pains!

Build Your Sagittarius Skill Set

Want a new job? This is how you´ll get it…

You love to learn. You’re interested in everything, and you love sharing what you know. If you’re looking to advance in your career, seeking a new career, or wanting to change careers, education can be your path to success. Perhaps you need to improve or even learn new skills. Hard as it may be for you to focus on just one area, your career might depend on it. Assess your skills and see which ones you can develop further. Build a skills resume (what you can, not what your responsibilities were). It isn’t bragging—it’s smart self-promotion!

Sagittarius Survives With Grace and Style

This brave Sag has faced a lot—but she’s thriving!

Anchor of ABC’s Good Morning America, Robin Roberts has faced more than her share of adversity, and overcome more than her share of obstacles. But in true Sag style, she’s faced them all with courage, humor, and optimism. Robin broke barriers as ESPN’s first black female sportscaster. In 2007, she survived breast cancer. And in 2012, she defeated myelodysplastic syndrome. By going public with her battle with the rare blood disease, the number of potential bone marrow donors at Be the Match increased 1800%.

The charismatic Peabody Award winner returned to GMA in February 2013. Filled with gratitude, she told Ellen DeGeneres, “I have never been this happy nor healthy in such a long time.” A true Sagittarian through and through.
