Well, howdy there! Let’s talk about them… uh… astrology signs, yeah, that’s what them city folks call ’em. Them star signs, you know? I heard some things about ’em, and I’m gonna tell ya what I know, the way I know how. No fancy talk, just plain ol’ common sense, ya hear?
Aries, they say, are like them roosters in the barnyard, always ready to fight, always gotta be first. Like that ol’ Mrs. Henderson’s rooster, always peckin’ at the other chickens, gotta be the boss. They say Aries are like that, full of fire, always gotta be doin’ somethin’. “These ones are for your inner warrior,” they say. Sounds like a whole lotta trouble to me, but hey, some folks like that kinda thing. Always gotta be the champion, they say. Always gotta win. Reminds me of that time my Billy tried to win the pie-eatin’ contest at the county fair. Ate so much he got sick as a dog! So, bein’ an Aries, maybe don’t eat too much pie, ya hear?
Then there’s Taurus. They like things nice and steady, like a good ol’ plow horse. They like their comfort, like a warm bed on a cold night. They ain’t gonna rush into nothin’, they like to take their time, think things through. Kinda like how I make my biscuits, gotta let the dough rise just right, can’t rush it. They say Taurus folks like pretty things, like flowers in the garden. Well, I like a good tomato plant myself, gives ya somethin’ ya can eat, not just somethin’ pretty to look at. But hey, to each their own, right?
Now, them Gemini folks, they’re a whole different story. They’re like them squirrels in the oak tree, always jumpin’ around, always chatterin’. Can’t ever seem to make up their minds, one minute they want this, the next minute they want that. Like my niece Sarah, always changin’ her mind about which dress to wear to church. Drives her mama crazy! They say Geminis are smart, always thinkin’ and talkin’. Well, talkin’ don’t get the chores done, that’s what I always say. Gotta put your hands to work, not just your mouth.
Cancer, they say, are homebodies, like a mama hen with her chicks. Always lookin’ after folks, makin’ sure everyone’s fed and comfortable. Reminds me of my grandma, always had a warm meal on the stove and a hug for everyone. They say Cancers are sensitive, get their feelings hurt easy. Well, life ain’t always easy, gotta toughen up a bit, I say. But havin’ a soft heart ain’t a bad thing, long as you don’t let folks walk all over ya.
- Leo, them folks are like the lions at the circus, always wantin’ to be the center of attention. They like to be in charge, like to be admired. Like that mayor we had a few years back, always struttin’ around like he owned the town. They say Leos are generous and kind, but they also like to be praised. Well, everyone likes a little praise now and then, ain’t nothin’ wrong with that.
- Virgo, they’re the neat and tidy ones, always cleanin’ and organizin’. Like my sister Martha, always gotta have her house spotless. Drives me nuts sometimes, but I guess someone’s gotta do it. They say Virgos are practical and detail-oriented. Well, someone’s gotta pay attention to the details, otherwise things fall apart. Like makin’ a quilt, gotta make sure every stitch is just right.
Libra folks, they like things to be fair and balanced. They don’t like conflict, always tryin’ to keep the peace. Reminds me of that judge we had in town, always tryin’ to find a compromise. They say Libras are charming and diplomatic. Well, bein’ nice don’t hurt nobody, long as you ain’t afraid to stand up for what’s right.
Scorpio, they’re the mysterious ones, kinda like the shadows in the woods at night. They don’t let on much, keep their feelings to themselves. Like that old man Johnson who lived down the road, always kept to himself, nobody really knew what he was thinkin’. They say Scorpios are passionate and intense. Well, feelin’ things deeply ain’t a bad thing, long as you don’t let it consume ya.
Sagittarius, they’re the adventurers, always lookin’ for somethin’ new. Like them wild horses runnin’ free on the plains. They don’t like to be tied down, always gotta be movin’. Reminds me of my cousin Jed, always travelin’ around, never stayin’ in one place for too long. They say Sagittarians are optimistic and honest. Well, lookin’ on the bright side don’t hurt, and tellin’ the truth is always the best policy, even if it ain’t always easy.
Capricorn, they’re the hard workers, always climbin’ the ladder, tryin’ to get ahead. Like them ants buildin’ their anthill, always busy, always focused. Reminds me of my grandpa, worked hard his whole life, never complained. They say Capricorns are disciplined and responsible. Well, hard work never killed nobody, and takin’ care of your responsibilities is what makes a person decent.
Aquarius, they’re the different ones, always thinkin’ outside the box. Like them inventors comin’ up with new gadgets, always tryin’ to make things better. Reminds me of that fella who built a windmill to pump his water, everyone thought he was crazy, but it worked! They say Aquarians are independent and humanitarian. Well, bein’ your own person ain’t a bad thing, and lookin’ out for others is what makes the world a better place.
Pisces, they’re the dreamers, always got their head in the clouds. Like them fish swimmin’ in the ocean, always goin’ with the flow. Reminds me of my granddaughter Lily, always makin’ up stories and drawin’ pictures. They say Pisces are compassionate and artistic. Well, havin’ a good imagination ain’t a bad thing, and seein’ the beauty in the world is a gift.
So, that’s what I heard about them astrology signs. Maybe there’s somethin’ to it, maybe there ain’t. But one thing I know for sure, it don’t matter what your star sign is, it matters what kinda person you are. Be kind, be honest, work hard, and try to leave the world a little better than you found it. That’s what really matters, ya hear?
