Common culprits that zap Sag’s natural zip and zest…
You’re usually so full of zip that it’s a shock when you drag. There could be a good reason for your lethargy. Take a few minutes to figure it out and you’ll be back on the move in no time!
There’s no match for Sagittarius in this skill…
If your life were a movie, it would probably be called Rush Hour! Sags have an inherent desire—no, need—to see, do, be, learn, try. You live life at breakneck speed as you tweet, swipe, tap, tag, pin, and race through your day. Some will tell you to slow down, take a load off, chillax, but there are studies that show all that hubbub can actually make you happier. Is that the secret to Sagittarius? Who knew?
And here’s more good news. You know how you crave spicy-hot food—the capsaicin in those chili peppers you love so much actually speed up your metabolism! Vroom!
Sagittarius´ dream home…
If you don’t like being tied down, perhaps a mortgage is too confining. An apartment in a bustling city puts you in the middle of the action, near plenty to do, sights to see as well as a big airport to get you where you want to go, stat! Of course, you need lots of shelves for all your books. Sure, you can post snaps of your trips online or let your friends admire them on your smart phone. Do your pics justice by printing the best, framing them beautifully, and arranging them artfully on the wall or propping on floating shelves amid exotic treasures brought back from faraway lands.
Turn Jupiter to your advantage…
You love ethnic cuisines. Anything new and different is what you’ll try. Fine wine, craft beer, bizarre cocktails? Yup. A food lover but hardly a food snob, you’ll grab a burger and fries on the run. Take care! With expansive Jupiter as your ruler you could easily overindulge. You don’t have to fast or deny yourself the guilty pleasures you love. Do more and weigh less!
Eat more protein. And feel fuller longer.
Drink more water. Between meals and between cocktails.
Do more yoga. And foster compassion for your body.
Bike more miles. Burn calories and tone your backside.
How your hair can get you what you want (really!)…
You won’t find any “by the book” hairstyles on Aquarius! “Bedhead” hair is hot, but you want to look pleasantly tousled, not like you just fell off the top bunk. Tame your tresses with tips from the experts. Give long hair beachy waves by wrapping two-inch-wide sections around twisty rods, then dry and artfully muss. Neaten the tumbling strands with a decorative clip. Create a deep side part, tuck the sparser side over the ear and secure with a barrette. A sparkly accessory can take your hair from office to opulence but downplay the jewelry to avoid the Liberace look!
How Aquarians are bringing back the sexy…
The way you dress is casual, stylish, and utterly individual. You’re so ahead of your time some people just think you’re weird! But they’ll learn what you were doing when they catch up (eventually). By then you’ll be on to the next wardrobe eccentricity you’ve dreamed up. Occasionally different just for the sake of it, there is a method to your madness—except you’re the only one who knows what it is! You care nothing for what others think (lucky for you, in this age of the instant critique), and status and designer labels are meaningless. “Hippie chick,” rocker, tie-dye, sheer, vintage—if it’s outrageous, even a bit shocking, you’ll wear it with pride!
The Aquarian miracle oil you must use…
If the smell of coconut oil conjures up greasy, bikini-clad bodies baking on the beach in the ’70s, you’re in for a surprise. It’s the new “miracle” oil, good for every part of your body from hair to toes. Even medical professionals and Deepak Chopra are on board the coconut oil train. Aquarians will try anything once!
Skin moisturizer. Some swear it makes their skin more radiant.
Oral health. Swishing for 20 minutes may whiten teeth and reduce bacteria.
Smoothie enhancer. May increase good (HDL) cholesterol and provide other health benefits.
Butter substitute or popcorn oil. Go light, though!
Heal minor skin irritations. Coconut oil has antimicrobial properties.
Improve hair. Decrease protein loss and add shine to dry hair.
Aquarians who smolder with sexy facial scruff…
Men’sfacial hair has come full circle in the past few years, from clean shaven to full-on woolly. Which do Aquarians prefer?
Ultimate beauty musts for Aquarians…
What’s better than a shot of espresso for energy or a cup of chamomile tea for relaxation? Breathing! It’s automatic, so you must be doing it right, right? Not necessarily. Shallow breaths rob you of the health benefits that proper breathing bestows. Aquarius rules breathing, so perfect your technique. Try this to blow out the excess carbon dioxide that makes you groggy and reenergize a midafternoon slump.
Critical advice Aquarians must not forget…
Itisn’t because you’re aging that you can’t remember birthdays! Depending on your smart phone to remember phone numbers, GPS to remember how to get from Point A to Point B, and the Cloud for everything else just makes your brain lazy! Flex those mnemonic muscles!
Squish a stress ball. Subjects in tests did better at recalling lists of words when they squeezed a stress ball in their right hand while memorizing and in the left while recalling.
Eat more omega-3s. The fatty acids may improve short-term memory.
Exercise. Studies show that breaking a sweat increases hippocampus volume in all stages of life.
Drink coffee. Caffeine may aid a hormone that helps the brain consolidate information.
