ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "Three of my friends, my boyfriend and my sister are Libras. Guess what my sign is? Yes, I’m a Libra. Is this a Libra thing? What gives?"
Women are especially comfortable with those of the same sign, and Libra men often choose to wed Libra women. Since this Venus-ruled sign prizes harmony, it often seeks easygoing individuals, such as other Libras, Pisces and Taurus to be their best friends.
"Can a year’s difference between two people of the same sign have different personalities? I was born on Dec. 30, 1940, and my friend was born on Dec. 31, 1941."
Even a few minutes can make a difference between two people who share the same sign. Remember that in astrology, date, time and place are the key factors. A person born at the same time and place, but one day apart would have a totally different personality. You have a Capricorn moon, making you a force of power behind the scenes. You have a lot in common with your friend because your share a communicative bond.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Playboy’s founder Hugh Hefner may seem like a swinging senior, but his Pisces moon and Venus in Pisces promise he’s far more sensitive than you might think. In reality, he values friendship and soul connection more than superficial pleasures, which is possibly why this Aries mogul was able to grow to rich and powerful. It’s easier for him to manifest his goals when he’s personally detached from the outcome.
