...Compare My zodiac sign, Cancer, has a huge impact on my personality. Cancer, the zodiac sign, has a maternal instinct and loves to nurture others. Due to the fact that Cancers are associated with the element water, its mascot is known as “The Crab”. The Crab’s hard protective outer shells, tends to make the Cancer’s traits and characteristics loving, genuine, sensitive, protective over their love ones, and most of all moody. The emotional Cancer has the tendency to hold their feeling in about almost anything, such as personal problems that they’re dealing with. Being a Cancer has a lot to do about my personality. I feed off of people’s energies and become extremely loyal to them. I’m protective over the ones I love, and tend to put all their wants and needs before mine. No matter what the situation is, I’m always looking out and being there for anyone and they don’t have to be someone that I’m extremely close to; that’s just me in general. I wouldn’t necessarily define myself as being moody 99.9% of the time, I’m only moody when I’m irritated by something/someone. When I’m dealing with problems of my own, I have the tendency to hold all my emotions in. I’m sensitive and caring, and most of the time I let my emotions get the best of me. Being a cancer has it’s pros and cons, but mostly pros. The fact that we’re loyal to our loved ones is a huge pro in our book. The ability to feed off of someone’s energy, is one of the special gifts we have. Caring, loving, and sensitivity...

The three major zodiac signs that are shown in Grendel are the Goat, the Bull, and the Fish.

...My favorite constellation is Sagittarius, or "The Archer" because it's my zodiac sign. Sagittarius is the largest constellation in the Southern Hemisphere, making it the fifteenth largest constellation overall. It's located at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy and its brightest stars form a teapot. This infamous constellation, often depicted as being a centaur holding a bow and arrow, was catalogued in the 2nd century by the Greek astronomer, Ptolemy. Though Sagittarius is a constellation like all the rest, it's unique shape comes with a fascinating story of how it came to be. A long time ago, there was once a centaur named Chiron. Chiron was renowned for his gentleness and archery skills. However, one day, Hercules accidentally shot and wounded Chiron with an arrow dipped in the poison of the Lernaean Hydra. Though Chiron had excellent healing skills, his pain was too great to be healed. Since he was immortal and could not die, he requested to take the place of Prometheus. Prometheus had been punished for bringing fire to Earth and would get his liver devoured day after day. After the switch had been made, Jupiter put Chiron in the stars as recognition for his righteousness. There was once a Roman god by the name of Vyaos. Vyaos was rather unpredictable. At times he...

...My favorite constellation is the constellation Andromeda, which portrays the Princess Andromeda chained to a rock as she awaits her fate. It attracted my attention from the moment I first learned about it, due to the thrilling myth which accompanies it and the stunning galaxy it contains- The Andromeda Galaxy. The constellation Andromeda is capable of being viewed from both hemispheres and The Andromeda Galaxy- a spiral galaxy that is approximately 2.4 million light-years away- is the most distant object which can be seen by the naked eye. The creation myth of the constellation Andromeda arose from Greek Mythology. In this particular myth, Andromeda is the daughter of King Cepheus and Queen Cassieopia, rulers of Aethiopia. Queen Cassieopia was extremely boastful, and, being a bit of a fool, once boasted that her daughter Andromeda was more beautiful than the Nereids. Upon hearing this the Nerieds were full of rage and informed Poseidon of this, who was filled with nearly as much rage open hearing this as the Nerieds had been. Thus, he sent a sea monster out to destroy Aethiopia as an act of petty revenge. As the land was being destroyed, King Cepheus, desperate for a way to stop this beast, consulted with Ammon, who informed him that the only way to appease the beast was to sacrifice his virgin daughter, Andromeda. Andromeda was then stripped and chained to a rock. Luckily for her, Perseus happened to be nearby, and rescued her after slaying the monster, having been promised...

...characteristics of my zodiac sign. One of my favorite zodiac blogs is zodiac signs by Crystal Melbourne, a professional astrologer. I look at her Tumblr blog daily and sometimes multiple times during the day. It wasn’t until two weeks ago when I joined this class that I thought about how it can be categorized as a discourse community. A discourse community is a group of people that share a set of beliefs and understandings. In this essay, that we all as a class are required to write, I will be dissecting the different parts of this Tumblr blog that make it a discourse community. Before going too far into the rhetorical situation of this blog, I will give a little bit of background for those newbies out there who have no clue what astrology or a horoscope is. I will also give you some of the important language that will be found throughout this essay. First off, astrology is the study of the positions and relationships of the sun, moon, stars, and planets in order to judge their influence on human actions. A horoscope is a diagram of the heavens, showing the relative position of planets and the signs of the zodiac, for use in calculating births, foretelling events in a person’s life, etc. Zodiac is an imaginary belt of the heavens, extending about 8° on each side of the ecliptic, within which are the apparent paths of the sun, moon, and principal planets. It contains twelve constellations and hence twelve divisions called signs of the zodiac. The 12 signs of the zodiac are Aries, Taurus...

...connection with the astronomy and the star constellations. In this fragment of Hesiod's poem “Nymphs like the Graces, Phaesyle and Coronis and rich-crowned Cleeia and lovely Phaeo and long-robed Eudora, whom the tribes of men upon the earth call Hyades.” (Hesiod, Homeric Hymns, Epic Cycle, Homerica. 1922) titled Astronomy, he mentioned and catalogued many of the constellations based on creatures and gods in greek mythology. Mythological aspect of the astronomy are mostly covered on the northern hemisphere, which includes the 12 zodiac constellations and some other constellations. The zodiac constellations formed an imaginary circle which the sun, moon, and seven of the nine planets orbited in the space, for example the Taurus which symbolizes the bull which describe zeus, and the form he took when he carried off the phoenician maiden, Europa. The other constellations are the constellations located out of the imaginary circle or the "zodiac circle". One example of the constellations are the Canis Major or "Great Dog" which describe several dogs that appeared in many classical myths. One of the story about it is from the book written by Hyginus titled Poetica Astronomica: "He is said to have been given by Jove as a guardian for Europa, and later to have come to Minos. When Minos was ill, Procris, wife of Cephalus, is said to have cured him, and received the dog as a reward for her services, as she was very fond of hunting and the dog was so swift that no beast could...

I would then head to the make-up section, I am definitely a girly girl and I love doing make up. I believe that your first impression of someone is very important and just because I am a mommy does not mean I do not take pride in myself.
