Back in the 1960s and 1970s when, for a short period of time, reverence of business was partially eclipsed by a drug-fueled quest for spirituality, talk of astrology did not raise as many eyebrows as it does today.
Way, way, back then, you might even see a velvet poster on a bedroom wall indicating the inhabitant’s sign of the zodiac.
Times have changed.
Even as a young one, I noticed astrology. From my many years of observation, there are two indicators that an individual both knows his/her sign of the zodiac and relates to it in a positive way:
- Astrology branded items such as posters and key chains
- Tattoos
The Two Signs Most Likely to Like Their Sign
With these two indicators in mind, there are two signs who both know their sign of the zodiac and like it:
- Leo
- Scorpio
You’ve seen a Scorpio/scorpion tattoo, right? A lion on a T-shirt?
Have you ever seen a tattoo or keychain of these signs of the zodiac?
- Ram
- Bull
- Twins
- Mother
- Virgin
- Scales
- Archer
- Goat
- Water bearer
- Fishes swimming in opposite directions
Chicken and Egg Question
This begs the chicken and egg question. Do Leo (the Lion) and Scorpio (the Scorpion) relate to their signs because those signs are cool? Or do they relate to their signs because they are Leos (ego) and Scorpios (even more ego)?
Which comes first?
If Capricorn the Goat, for example, were Capricorn the King (like Elvis Presley and Richard Nixon), would they too have embraced astrology? Maybe even gotten a tattoo or at least a bumper sticker?
Don’t let it keep you up at night
Instead of tossing and turning with this question, go ahead and ask people their signs. See what you find.
