text: why do people believe in astrology. i hate my star sign. why can't i change it? ok my sign is cancer. and i have never read anything good abt cancerian traits. except for being motherly, sweet, sympathetic (yea yea whatever!! like it's not good for us, it's just good for others). i wanna be strong like a taurus or a leo or cunning like a scorpio. $@%& astrology every zodiac sign has traits that the people born under don't like. interestingly enough, if you ponder these traits, you'll find them pretty close to the mark. my daughter is a cancer sign, and she exhibits the artistic, intuitive traits. also she's protective of her friends, going so far as to stick up for them in the schools she's attended. myself, i'm a capricorn, and i'm surprised to find my personality traits are remarkably true-to-form, even though i don't follow astrology daily. concentrate on the strengths opf your sign; shrewdness, cautious, intuitive, imaginative...what's wrong with those?
