Aromatherapy: Signs and Their Properties

Further defining the planets are the signs of the zodiac. Each of the twelve signs is ruled by a governing planetary body. These appear below, along with their planetary ruler.

The influence of the associated planet to each sign is clearly apparent in the type of characteristics traditionally associated with each sign.

Taurus (Venus): Affectionate, warm, trustworthy, reliable, patient, possessive, solid

Gemini (Mercury): Communicative, adaptable, versatile, intellectual, spontaneous

Cancer (Moon): Motherly, empathetic, protective, imaginative, caring; the sign of the homemaker

It should be noted that while there are specific general characteristics that are embodied by each of the astrological signs, these may be expressed in a positive or a negative manner. For example, strength may be expressed as bullying behavior, independence as contrariness, or receptiveness as weakness of will.

Herein lies the beauty of the magic of fragrance. Blending different scents enables us to fine-tune the overall result of the working influence. The entire process becomes a finer, more precisely directed art. It is lifted from the realm of hit and miss and effectiveness is increased significantly.
