The Mystery of the Missing Sign

by Tarit



Each of the 12 signs contains all the other 11 signs within it. No sign can be understood separately. Just take the signs that are opposite each other as an example. What is the orderliness of Virgo without the chaos of Pisces? How can Libra create peace if Aries didn’t start a war? Each sign must be understood in its relation to the other signs.

So what does all this nonsense mean? Let’s go through the zodiac and you’ll see. This is a very simplified version of the principle, but if you get the general idea you can study it further yourself.

Let’s begin with Aries. Why is Aries so straightforward, outgoing and blunt? Aries lacks Scorpio. The sign that is about depth of emotion and introverted brooding. What about Scorpio then? Why is that sign so deep and intense and often struggling with serious emotions? Scorpio lacks Gemini, the happy-go-lucky joker in the zodiac, forever young and playful. Imagine you don’t have an ounce of Gemini inside of you, then you’d be like Scorpio. What about Gemini then, what does this sign lack? Why is Gemini known to be flaky and indecisive? Gemini lacks Capricorn, the serious, responsible workaholic, the spine of our society. Take a look at a Gemini and you can literally see that they are the way they are because they don’t have Capricorn. What about Capricorn then, why is Capricorn so serious and preoccupied with work and status? What could Capricorn be lacking? Capricorn lacks Leo. Sunny, charming Leo, with its natural self-love. If one doesn’t love oneself, one can at least earn the respect of oneself and society through work. That’s the Capricorn way. What about Leo then? Why is Leo considered the most ego-driven sign? It’s all about me and my need to express myself. What could Leo possibly lack to make it that way? Leo lacks Pisces, the sign of compassion and lack of boundaries. If I don’t feel the oneness with others it must mean I stand out, I’m special, and that is the key to understanding Leo. What about Pisces? Why is Pisces often so chaotic and confused? What do they miss? They lack Libra, the sign of balance and harmony. Obvious when you think about it, right?

What about Libra? Why is sweet and love-sick Libra so concerned about being liked by others? What does Libra lack? Libra lacks Taurus, strong, solid and resting within oneself. No one can push a Taurus around. So if you don’t have Taurus within you, you’ll have a hard time saying no to people, just like Libra has. What about earth-bound Taurus? Why is Taurus so grounded? It’s the sign of enjoying the physical senses, food and money. What could Taurus miss that made it so rooted? Taurus lacks Sagittarius, the sign of the spiritual quest. The sign of traveling the world and the expansion of the mind. Certainly when you lack that sign you’ll be more concerned with what’s for lunch than anything else.


And with that we come full circle.


But that’s a different topic, for another time…
