The top lessons you need to learn with a Leo is your boss…
With a Leo in charge, be prepared to work tirelessly, because he or she will be burning the midnight oil. Leos think big. They have energy and pizzazz.
You may grumble if you think your supervisor is showing off, taking all the credit, and hogging the spotlight, and perhaps that’s true, but you won’t find a more honest workmate. Maybe you’ll have to put up with some bombast, but it will be hard to dislike the Lion!
Just remember to show respect (which you should do anyway), offer compliments, and be loyal. You’ll feel like a member of the pack in no time.
You’re the best friend anyone could have…
Do you know why Virgo has such close friends? Because you treat them like family—maybe even better than family because you got to choose them! You’re the one with the best friend you’ve known since grade school, the one who keeps in touch with your besties from high school and your crew from college. You may be the one who organizes the reunions, too, because, face it, nobody would do as good a job! While Burning Man-type gatherings may not be your thing, you’re unequalled when it comes to intimate gatherings of interesting people where you can share good food and good talk.
Virgo’s unique style preferences…
You know that attention to detail you bring to your work? It also shows up in the clothes you wear. Never gaudy or tasteless, your pieces are well-made and neat, but not prim or stiff. Even your business attire has to be comfortable! Natural fabrics and earth tones complement you, as do pastel shades. Show off your beautiful skin in sleeveless dresses and tops in terra-cotta, green, or ecru, or a leafy print. An elegant watch, classic mules, and sleek hair will help you look polished and elegant.
The easiest, effective therapy for Geminis…
Maybe you’ve tried meditation but found it too hard to quiet your nonstop monkey mind. Here’s some good news that seems tailor-made for Gemini—laughter apparently sparks the same brain wave patterns as those generated in experienced meditators! This brain wave activity means that almost all of the brain’s higher cortical regions are operating on a common frequency. It’s the same as being “in the zone,” you know, when you’re so into an activity that you don’t realize an hour has passed? And the effect is almost immediate, as soon as the laughter starts. Finally! A way to get the benefits of meditation without all that “om-ing” and sitting still, and you get to laugh! The planets have aligned!
Do Geminis sell their professional potential short?
Perhaps you’re considering making the leap from worker bee to queen bee. If you think you’re ready, you could be right.
Good managers must identify and solve problems. They need to hire the right people and delegate tasks. They must communicate well. They must mentor, motivate, and build teams. They thrive in changing circumstances.
And the most successful managers share one trait—they can get along with a wide variety of people. Remember, managers must also prioritize, focus, and budget. If you think you have what it takes, go for it!
The health need you’re ignoring…
Stress and changes in beauty routines can result in an itchy, flaky scalp. Ick! If you’re crunched for time, you may fail to properly wash your hair or wash it less often, a strategy that can backfire. Failing to thoroughly rinse after washing and conditioning you hair can result in a flaky buildup on your scalp.
Use a moisturizing shampoo a couple of times a week. If itchiness persists and you can’t see a dermatologist right away, warm some olive oil and gently massage it into your scalp with your fingertips. Leave on overnight and then wash it off in the morning. Relief!
These are bad signs if you’re with a Leo…
Leo loves to be seen, so there’s a problem if the Lion suddenly stays home, avoids groups, or tries to be inconspicuous. Is Leo’s spirit waning like the ashy death throes of a fading star? Perhaps your usually sunny mate has turned bitter and jealous or begun to growl, yet refuses to say what’s wrong.
If things have become too boring, the Lion could be on the prowl for a more appreciative audience. You may have done nothing worse than offer too little praise or too many directives, but it could be time to call it quits.
Your high expectations can get in the way of love…
There are no halfway measures with Virgo. Your standards are high and your critical eye is practiced. You no doubt have a very specific mental picture of your perfect match. And you are tireless in your painstaking search as you meticulously check off each attribute on your list. Are you trying to sabotage your own efforts? No one could possibly live up to that paragon of virtue, charm, and looks! If you’re really serious about finding a mate, relax your standards just a little bit and widen your perspective, then you’ll find “the one.”
Don’t get stuck in analysis paralysis…
There’s a reason people bring you their knottiest problems. You’re the only one who can cut through the tangle, tease apart the issues, and knit the whole thing back together. If only Virgos ran our national security organizations, all those dots would have been connected long ago. Easy when it’s someone else’s problem, isn’t it? But you might stymie your own best efforts. Do you only act when you’re sure you’ll succeed? Do you consider every conceivable outcome a dozen times? Don’t wait until every single duck is lined up in order by color, size, and quack—act!
Libras need this more than anything to be happily in love…
Harmony may be in short supply these days, but you more than anyone need peace in your private life. You want a partner who is accommodating, one who makes as few waves as possible. Because your focus is on strengthening your relationship, you cherish all of your partner’s conciliatory attempts as you forgive any missteps or shortcomings.
You would never think of forcing your opinion on a mate, but if you suddenly find yourself growing argumentative, resentful, and uncompromising, it could be a sign that this partnership isn’t the right one for you.
