Every parent knows: their child is different, special. Truly every child is unique. But many who are around children notice that some children act one way and others act another. Children born in the early summer (Geminis) tend to be very social but those just a little later (Cancers) are a wee bit shy. You can learn a lot about your child simply by learning about their astrology sign and what this means to them.
You can easily find your child's astrology sign by knowing their birthdate - and checking against the dates below. Children born on the cusp - the edge of any of the signs may have some of the characteristics of both of the signs they are born near. So a child born on March 20th may be sometimes a Pisces and other times an Aries. Try to read both and see which one rings more true for your child.
Aries (March 21 - April 20). Ram children are brave, courageous and adventurous. This is the child that is most likely going to try anything and everything. Can you actually fly by jumping straight out of the tree house? The Ram child will try and see if this is possible. An Aries child is usually quite popular and confident with their peers, they have lots of charisma.
Taurus (April 21 - May 21). The Bull child is one with a patient and very sweet personality - most of the time. Let us be truthful...have you noticed that your child can sometimes have a bit of a stubborn streak when they want something? Now being stubborn is also another word for determination and we all know that determination is an excellent characteristic to have to get you all sorts of good places in life! Taurus children love the arts and are often musical. They also have lovely singing voices.
Gemini (May 22 - June 21). The Twins are a true social butterfly - always flitting from friend to friend or fun thing to the next thing! The biggest challenge with a Gemini child is sometimes getting them to simply sit still and focus: to eat a meal, get their homework done and spend some time with the family. These Gemini children are always on the go. Gemini children are well-known for having many different types of friends - from the school jocks to artists/drama types to the kids with straight As. Sometimes they wind up running for Class President because everyone trusts them and really knows them quite well.
Cancer (June 22 - July 22). The sweet Crab child is one who truly loves their mother so much. This child is very close with their mother and has a very strong psychic bond that can never be broken. They literally know what you are feeling - all the time. Cancer children have deep, soulful eyes that feel like they go on forever. These children are often a bit shier than their other playmates and they have more serious personalities. While they may have less friends - they are very loyal to their friends and would do anything for a friend.
Leo (July 23 - August 21). A Lion child is one who loves the arts and creative things. This is the child that is always doing something inventive and unique. But more importantly, this is a child that truly wants center stage! Leo children are not shy. Don't get us wrong - this does not mean they are arrogant or stuck up, simply that they have lots of natural confidence and just like to share what they are good at. Leos are wonderful comedians and many of them are the class clown or involved in the drama group.
When shopping for a gift for someone, knowing more about that person can be so useful. Did you know that you can get great gift ideas simply by knowing someone's astrology sign? Your astrology sign tells us a lot about your personality and likes and dislikes. This information makes shopping for you and finding a lovely gift so much easier!
The first thing to do is to ask someone what their astrology sign is. If they don't know what their sign is, simply ask them when their birthday is. You can easily look up their astrology sign by checking according to the date.
Aries (March 21 - April 20). When shopping for The Ram, you'll want to get them something that is sporty, new and offers them a challenge. Aries is a sign that always loves to be first at anything. After all - look at them being the first in the zodiac chart! So giving them the first of the line in any technology or the latest bestseller by a favorite author is for sure a gift that they would appreciate. Aries is a sign that many sportsmen and competitive athletes have. Sporting goods and athletic "toys" are great gifts to give them.
Taurus (April 21 - May 21). If you are shopping for the Bull, you'll want to shop for the finer things in life. Taurus men and women are known for loving beauty in everything. Their home is beautifully decorated and they always wear the latest designer duds. Even a Taurus on a limited budget knows how to look extra snazzy with lots of style. The Taurus will appreciate a luxury type of gift that shows you spent extra time and ideally something that pampers them just a little. Don't they deserve it?
Gemini (May 22 - June 21). When shopping for the Twins some might make the joke that you should buy two of everything. Well, that's not too far from the truth! Gemini's do love their shiny toys and they adore new things. It doesn't seem to matter quite what it is - as long as it is new. They even get excited opening a new roll of paper towels. Look! It's new! But gifts that have to do with socializing and communicating are going to be real home runs with Geminis. You'll want to think of the latest and greatest cell phones or PDAs. Or anything having to do with planning a party - Geminis are always ready to plan a great festivity.
Cancer (June 22 - July 22). The good ol' Crab is one who isn't quite so fussy about material things. Cancers are known for being quite emotional and sensitive. What really gets to their little hearts is if you give them something hand made - or even if you write them a letter or a poem created just for them. Your thoughts, your words, your emotions shared with them means so very much. Just be sure to bring a box of tissues! Another great option is seashells or bath items, as Cancers simply love to be near the water any way they can.
Leo (July 23 - August 21). The Lion is known for wanting to be the life of the party and very often the center of attention. When it comes to gifts - only the very best will do. Some might think this means you have to empty out your bank account to give a Leo a gift. But that is not so: with a Leo, pride counts for everything. If you give a Leo a cutting of your prized roses and that is the very best gift you can give them - they will swell with pride knowing that you are giving them the very best. That's what they want - your best!
