Astrology is the study of the correlation between celestial movements of the sun, moon and planets
with earthly events or human personality, and is often used for self-discovery or guidance. It uses a
birth chart — a map of the sky on the day or your birth — to interpret life patterns.
However, astrology is not in the business of telling the complete truth, writes astrologer Charlene Lichtenstein. That’s why traits like “cheap”, “spiteful” and “ugly” become “thrifty”, “intense” and “good personality” are often found amongst the predictions.
Charlene Lichtenstein is the most widely published astrologer in the gay and lesbian press including popular American
outlets like The Washington Blade and The Philadelphia Gay News. We asked her for the
real truth about that guy you fancy, and she thinks you should find out his star sign before you get involved.
Then can consult the following long before you start cracking that bottle of champagne to celebrate catching that new man.

| CANCER June 22-July 22 Cancer the Crab is an apt symbol. These people are crabby by nature and cast a pall over any festive gathering with their rampant paranoia. Spending an evening with them is like walking on eggshells laced with glass. Their moodiness is just a thin veneer for a more pathological lunacy. But don’t worry; their more excessive displays are usually saved for those they love. Lucky them! Mitigating factors: Revenge - sit them next to your ex. Those born under the sign of Cancer include: Mike Tyson, Franz Kafka and O.J. Simpson. |
| LEO July 23-August 23 Leos are tiresome divas who think they know everything and everybody. The fact is that they can become so bamboozled by false flattery that they become unwitting mouthpieces for hangers on and lounge rats. Astrology books say that Leos are “theatrical” but that’s just another word for boorish, vain and loud. They are usually found in noisy bars with scrapbooks. Mitigating factors: Eliminates need for having an opinion or deciding anything. Those born under the sign of Leo include: Benito Mussolini, Mata Hari and Leni Riefenstahl. |
| VIRGO August 24-September 23 Virgos are the cheapest souls in the zodiac who recycle gifts and never buy lunch. They’re clean to the point of compulsion and always think that they are right even in the face of unassailable evidence to the contrary. Show me a sniveling, ferret-faced nerd who periodically smells his armpits and I’ll show you a Virgo. Mitigating factors: Do terrific laundry, immaculate bathrooms and kitchens. Those born under the sign of Virgo include Yasser Arafat and Caligula. |
