I'm amazed how it can really affect me.
In fact all the plans what done during this period would need adjustments.
This is no joke.
This seems like a spam but if anyone out there believe in horoscope you should really Google when will the mercury retrograde and its effect.
This will affect greatly on Virgo and Gemini.
Suddenly I felt that I've learned something new ever since I study horoscope in 2007
Call me superstitious, but I felt today's daily horoscope is very accurate - no wonder I suddenly have the omphhhh feeling (even before I read it) to complete my tasks and got my thinking a bit clearer.
This is a good time to think about where you're going and what you want to do. Your ability to tune in to your future possibilities is definitely enhanced now. If it's appropriate, share your vision with those who believe are supportive of your plans.
The qualities are also known as the quadruplicities, which means there are four horoscope signs falls in a quality category.
If the elements tell you the person's initial impression, then the qualities will tell the person's behavior in the long run.
The following explains the three qualities in horoscope:
Cardinal: Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn
Providing the ACTION to get things started.
Keywords: action, decisive, enterprising, initiating, vigorous
Fixed: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius
Providing the STABILITY to see things through.
Keywords: conserving, intense, persistence, reliable, resistant to change, stabilising, steadfast, supportive
Mutable: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces
Providing the ADAPTABILITY to make changes.
Keywords: adaptable, changeable, flexible, variable, versatile
Qualities can explain why two person with the same element, behaved differently.
For e.g. Leo (Fixed sign) can be very stubborn on a change of request while Sagittarius can accommodate to it easily (Mutable sign).
Qualities have something gotta do with the season change.
Let's look at how the qualities of the sign progress:
Cardinal -> Fixed -> Mutable
Then, take an example on Summer, which has (Cancer -> Leo -> Virgo):
Cancer (22/6 - 22/7) represents the start of the summer. It leads the start of new season (initialisation/leading is one of cardinal sign's characteristic)
Leo (23/7 - 22/8) represents the middle of summer. It kept the summer going and is considered as the 'peak of the summer'. (therefore, the characteristic of summer is evident and therefore, translate into the 'stubborn' characteristic)
Virgo (23/8 - 22/9) represents the change of season. It sits between the end of summer and the beginning of the autumn. Therefore, the changeability of the season gives the 'mutability' characteristic.
So we know there are 4 elements in horoscope, i.e.
Fire, Earth, Air and Water
The elements play an important role in determining the basic character type and the general approach to life.
The elements are also known as the Triplicities. (as there are three signs in an element)
Following best describe the characteristics of the elements (summarised from various source):
Fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)
People with a strong emphasis of the fire element are spontaneous and impulsive, they apply their energies wholeheartedly. Their emotional response is quick and they have a lively imagination.
Keywords: Active, masculine, spontaneous, quick, initiating, instinctual, outgoing, vitalizing and energetic.
Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn)
Earthy people react quietly and slowly. They apply themselves with endurance. Emotionally they are deeply rooted and slow to change.
Keywords: Passive, feminine, solid, materialization, physical, stable, slow-moving, practical, sensual and grounded
Air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius)
Airy people are quick and animated. They apply their energies in very diverse ways. They tend to intellectualize their feelings and expectations.
Keywords: Active, masculine, intellectual, ethereal, abstract, ideas, detached, social, conceptual and communicative
Water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces)

For the past 2.5 years, horoscope studies has been one of the activities during my leisure time.
I like it very much cos it helps me a bit on human behavior studies as well as my 'imitation hobby'.
Here I'd like to share on what I had learned so far - cos it's been fun to get to understand it.

I might not be who I am, which could be for your eyes only
As a Virgo,
I don't deny that I love to act.
In fact, I think it's hard to understand what Virgo is thinking.
Under the smiling, friendly face, you might be surprised that they were actually disagreeing, cursing, doing something in the dark side against you.
Lately I've got the opportunity to hang out with Cancerians, frequently. (a term nicked for person who is a Cancer)
Of course, with my little knowledge of horoscope, I can summarise them as follows: (sarcasm intended, but I believe that explains the situation best)
1) They are action type of people (a common traits for cardinal sign)
2) They often have special idea because they love to do things unorthodox-ly. That gives them the ability to have unique strategy and outperform sometimes. (erm, for crab which doesn't walk straight, how can they not doing things differently?)
3) They are perfectionist of things they do (they'll feel reluctant to start a job/project/task if the requirements are not met or components/people are not ready)
4) They are generally viewed as "the most caring sign" among the 12 signs
5) On point #3, that's why, they get pissed off when the elements prepared are not 'perfect' (hence the bad mood)
6) And because of point#5, they are also famously known for being 'emo' (yah, emo till they'll have the most negative thoughts, in contrast with their 'caring' image)
7) They are not keen to let people understand why they are acting like that (point#1-point#6, especially the emo part). (and hence they give the 'emo' image to people)
8) And once hurt, they, will be like crab, hide back to the shell (and doing the stuff stated in point #6 and #7)
Please don't mistake me, Cancer is a special sign which I admire for their unorthodox way of doing things.
Reason is being quite simple - for a sign that can't even walk straight, how do you even expect them to think straight? (hence the unorthodox as well as emo)
Again, I'm trying to be sarcastic but I (seriously and really) do admire them :-)
Me, Emoody and Emoody Sr
Finally, Emoody meets his 18 years old uncle - Emoody Sr.
OK, that means we've proved every human wrong - who says bear can't grow up?
The reason I didn't grow much in the past 8 years is because I chose not to grow up.
There are many problem in adult world, at least that's what I heard.
OK, I know I'm the smallest among all.
Btw, Emoody Sr's birthday is on 25/1/1991.
That means he's an Aquarius.
According to Trevor, some Aquarius sees things differently - that's why many Aquarius artist produces avant-garde product.
They are charming but sometimes they don't speak much.
Of course, they are stubborn too. From Emoody Sr's mouth you can tell he's stubborn.
So what can I say? Welcome on board, Emoody Sr!
I found a superhero team, let me introduce them:
The Cancerian: Born know how to swim, he might look in the "Why?" sign, but you'll regret when he answers your question with his clamps!
The Gemini: Born with serious face, but not so serious if you know him well. Good in providing idea.
The Capricorn aka Sleepyhead: Born with sleepy face. He was sleeping when the photo was taken.
Btw, he's good with determination.
The Scorpio: Make him angry at your peril. He'll revenge without making you knowing that he's revenging!
The Virgo: Doesn't know how to swim until today (can't even float). Good in nothing.
