Leos (July 23 to August 22) are among the kings of the zodiac. They are generous and warm-hearted, creative, faithful and loving. They can be prideful and dominant, however. In Greek mythology, Leo was the lion that was killed by Hercules as the first of his 12 chores. Leos are spontaneous and extroverted. Leo is a born leader, cheerful and optimistic.

They conquer obstacles the same way a lion conquers their foes—like a hunter, who spots his prey, stalks, and pounces.  Leos tend to be very focused on their goals and ambitions. Like the king of beasts, they like to be in command and make good leaders. They have strong intelligence and can be philosophical, even religious. Leos like to be the center of attention and have powerful egos. They can be resentful if they’re not the center of attention. Leos occasionally need to remember that less is more and they can attract as much attention if they stop trying so hard to get it. It’s that pride thing, again. 

The sign of Virgo steadies the ever-shifting influence of the Moon. Virgo moon has keen analytical leanings with a precise, discriminating mind. They do not seek knowledge simply for the purpose of knowledge but for the purpose of practical application. Their initial reaction to the sense-impressions they take in from the world is to analyze and question. Moon in Virgo people are sometimes so suspicious they doubt what they see with their own eyes.

They prefer to discuss concepts and investigate ideas held by others while holding fast to many of their own preconceived notions. They are not so unreasonable, though, that they will cling to a theory once the facts have proven them wrong. They are seekers of veritas, and consider truth to be what is left after inaccuracies have been revealed. No one would consider them a naive idealist wearing rose-tinted glasses. Their realistic pragmatism makes them well suited in business. They focus on building long-term gains rather than get-rich quick money schemes.

If you have the Venus in Virgo placement, you manage to be careful about falling in love. You sometimes sidestep entanglement by taking shallow deficiencies in a person and inflating them disproportionately as major character defects. You carry yourself on a tight leash, because you worry that your emotions will be misused by someone undeserving. What you desire in a love relationship is someone who will judge you as unique.

Curiously, though, when you do invest your heart away it’s oftentimes to the wrong person, who will not understand your fine attributes. (For some reason, this state of Venus tends to promote embarrassment.) Venus-Virgos have several merits. You are elegant and bright, loyal and compassionate. Usually, you are a creative writer and educator; you have an outstanding business sense and a calm but clever sense of humor. Many of our distinguished government leaders and philanthropists are VenusVirgos who have provided their love to the world at large rather than to an individual person.

While Mars is in Libra, the energy of this planet appears to alternate. You are changeable and sensual in your sexuality. A great abundance of your force is spent developing emotional connections. Yet you possess a listless attitude toward sex and frequently must be sought after rather than act as the pursuer.

You are utopian and aesthetic; crudeness of any sort turns you off. You fancy relationships with cultivated, mature lovers, but tend to grow connected in troubled hookups. This placement of Mars is great for a different artistic or literary genius. There is great elegance and discretion in your work. You have a desirable ability to make a pleasant impact on the populace. Mars-Librans believe deeply in fair play. Your efforts are always prefaced by a careful evaluating of the pros and cons.

Being a Snake ourselves, we should be able to recite our Chinese restaurant placement profile by heart, but here it is anyway: Born in the years 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989 and 2001. Wise and intense with a tendency towards physical beauty. Vain and high tempered. The Snake is an interesting mix of extroversion paired with introversion, intuitive reasoning paired with business savoir-faire.

Snakes are considered to be lucky with money and will generally have more than enough to live life to the fullest, regardless of how important it considers money to be; this may be due to the fact that Snakes tend to be rather tight with cash. They’re not stingy; they’re simply more mentally than physically active. Snakes tend to hang back a bit in order to analyze a situation before jumping into it. Their charming, seductive quality actually belies a rather retiring nature; this Sign is perfectly happy to spend the whole day curled up with a good book and, thus, can be mislabeled as being lazy. 

The element of Wood represents the direction East. Those who are born with this element tend to yearn for stability and tradition. In China, wood is also associated with bamboo. Bamboo, of course, is a strong, flexible, and long shoot which grows in marsh areas. It follows then, that wood people are flexible, emotionally strong and dependable. A wood person will stick with you through good and bad times, unwavering of their support.

Wood people are interested in social issues and strive to leave the poor and helpless of our world with a sense of independence and change. Although, they can be idealistic and that trait can be the cause of emotional angst when plans don’t follow the perfect path. Wood people do well in social work or working with children. Working with others is easy for wood people, as they truly enjoy the process of cooperation and compromise. Generous and warm, wood people spread happiness, confidence and joy wherever they go.

The INFP is one of the 16 MBTI personality types. INFP stands for introverted (I), intuitive (N), feeling (F) and perceiving (P). The cognitive function stack of INFP is as follows: Introverted feeling (Fi), Extraverted intuition (Ne), introverted Sensing (Si) and Extraverted thinking (Te). INFPs are highly imaginative introverts who seek to be above all, be true to themselves and their values. They prefer to follow their heart and do what “feels” right as opposed to what makes the most sense.

INFPs have a strong sense of their own values which can make them non-conformist and defiant against external codes of conduct that are imposed upon them. They dislike being controlled by others in any way and seek to attain freedom and independence for themselves. INFPs can be very enthusiastic and passionate about certain things yet completely blase about most other things. They desire novelty and channels for their creative expression. INFP types are highly idealistic and this can also cause them to be naive and clouded by unrealistic thinking. Still, their faith can carry them far and inspire others along the way. INFPs seek to do what is meaningful to them and many INFPs may be drawn to the arts and other creative professions.
