Shifting Currents: Crabs, Pieces and Scorpios

The key words that have to come to your mind when you hear the sign of Cancer are: gentle, feeling, caring. The Water Sign that you will find Protective, when expressed positive and Jealous, when expressed negative. The Ruling Planet is the Moon.  People with this sign are usually called <<The Moon Children>>.  The power here stands in emotions – they are the Emotional Intelligent. Cancers have a reputation for moodiness and some have developed an ability to manipulate others to get what they want.

I chose the gentle: Princes Diana aka "Lady Di". She was the celebrity of the late20th century. Diana was born into an aristocratic English family with royal ancestry and became a public figure with the announcement of her engagement to Prince Charles.  She was loved for her charm, her sweetness and her goodness.

Power of seduction, Sexuality, Mystery and Occultism – all of that in search of the spirit of Scorpio.  Scorpio is a fixed Sign, the ruling planet is Pluto and expressed positive we have rejuvenation, but when expressed negative - ruthless.  Like the other water signs this one is also emotional and sensitive. Nothing ever done by one Scorpio is half way. The Scorpio puts everything he has at work 100%. Many born under this Sign become the classic workaholic.

I chose Pablo Picasso, could not decide if Guernica or a picture of his own would better represent him. I finally made a choice with him. I feel his Scorpio sense. I went on a trip once in Paris, I met an old lady. She said she used to meet him. She talked softly: “Il était sauvage”.  He was the “Cubism”. His revolutionary artistic accomplishments brought him fame and fortune, making him one of the best-known figures in 20th century art. His love life was also subject of fame and controversy.

The next Water sign is Pieces. They are the Mutable, that means they can be complex and understand all the sides of the story.  Charity when expressed mildly and Anxiety when expressed negatively. Neptune is the ruling planet.  The key words for Pieces are : serious, peace-loving, kind, dreamer and imaginative. Pieces are the ones who can turn the world up side down. They can become famous in just a flash and are ready to give all the knowledge away.

The winner is Albert Einstein, the German born physicist that developed the theory of general relativity an became one the of the most famous man alive. He received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921. Einstein's gifts resulted in his dwelling much in intellectual solitude and, for relaxation music played an important part in his life. As a true Pieces he said : <<Imagination is more important than knowledge>>.
