  Head, Heart, Health 

     Because we are all influenced by the movement of the planets, the movement called transits, it is no wonder that during the month of September we all become more health conscious and possibly over-analyze our health issues as well as other things. The over-conscious and/or over-analyzing is attributed to the transit or movement of the sun through Virgo, the health conscious sign of the zodiac.

     Each person/sun sign learns a multitude of lessons in a lifetime. Some of the learning experiences are presented in the form of health issues linked to specific areas of the body.

Aries: health issues include the head, brain, muscular and urogenital system, the adrenal gland which regulates the body's metabolism, and the upper belly chakra which is the use/abuse of self-power or personal energy. * Arians need to be cautious of fatigue, which is created by over-doing.

Taurus: health issues include the throat, shoulders, the eustachian tubes, the thymus gland which hastens sexual maturity and produces a spirit of faith and lovingness, and the heart chakra which is the giving of divine or unconditional love. * Taureans need to be cautious of depression which is created by looking too far ahead in life.
