I finally finished my Leo illustration! Leo is a masculine, fire sign ruled by the sun. Leo is enthusiastic, powerful, expansive and creative, generous and extravagant, dogmatic and fixed in opinion. Marvelously affectionate and cheerful, you have genuine joie de vivre. The Sun is your ruler, and you always bring some sunshine into the lives of others.
(June 21- July 22) Cancer is a feminine, water sign, ruled by the Moon. Cancerian's most likable trait is loyalty. A water element, ruled by the Moon- Cancer can be likened to the shifting tides of the oceans. Like the tides, Cancer is the sign of powerful forces moving under the surface.
I finally finished my Gemini illustration (May 21- June 20). I had a lot of fun with this one. I hope you enjoy it!
Gemini is an air symbol ruled by the planet Mercury. People born under this sign are many sided, quick in thought and action, clever with words, skillful at handling others, brimful of new ideas.
I know I'm a little late on posting this, but last week I was so crazy busy. I haven't had time to sit down with my journal and watercolors until yesterday. The first day of Taurus was last Wednesday (April 20- May 20).

Sorry to be one day late. I've just finished my newest astrology illustration: Pisces (February 19 - March 20) Click here to see Aquarius.
Pisces is a water symbol. Many astrologers say that Pisces is a link to the spirit world and that you who are born under this sign are old souls, for they believe Pisceans to have experienced other lives in the past.
You may remember a few weeks back there was a huge astrology controversy. I didn't read too much about it besides what people were posting on facebook. Apparently a newspaper reported that because of the moon's gravitational pull on Earth, the alignment of the stars was pushed by about a month- changing everyone's signs and adding in a new sign, Ophiuchus. People completely panicked! I, myself, didn't like the idea of my sign changing from Leo to Cancer. Whether you are an avid follower of astrology or just enjoy dabbling in it for fun, having your sign suddenly change is a little nerve-wrecking. I personally love my sign and don't want it to change!
So believe what you want I guess? Before all this controversy I had planned to illustrate each astrological sign every month and post it on the first day of its changing sign. Today is the first day of Aquarius (January 20- February 18).
Famous People with the Sun in Aquarius:
Susan B. Anthony
Lord Byron
Lewis Carroll
Charles Darwin
Charles Dickens
Christian Dior
Langston Hughes
Abraham Lincoln
Mozart

Virginia Woolf
I also wanted to create a small widget for any Aquarius' out there who would like to display this illustration on their blog ♥
