Hank's Your Health and the Stars
YOUR HEALTH and the STARS
INTRODUCTION
A great deal of work has been carried out over the past hundred or so years trying to establish definite links to health and astrological influences. It used to be regarded, rather like religion: either you believe in it or you don’t. Personal choice.
The reality is that as evidence has stacked up to support the notion that the stars or planets do have an influence on health and personality, it becomes more difficult to ignore. Too much has already been said about statistics for me to add to it, except to say that the sheer volume of people of like astrological signs experiencing the same or similar health maladies warrants attention.
What I’ve tried to do with this chapter is correlate all the cumulative evidence with my own clinical practice. If your sign predisposes you to any specific malady, e.g. Leos and high blood pressure, we might be able to circumvent it by taking remedial action in advance.
Let’s go!

Personality
Act first, think later, seems to typify people of this sign. That’s why they make good, natural leaders. They are loaded with courage and never hesitate to expose themselves to danger if they think the cause is justified. It’s no accident that the Ram is their astrological symbol, and they can be very headstrong and impulsive.
It is this trait that makes others regard them as thoughtless and uncaring, and this is sometimes the case. They must have their independence to pursue the course they have decided on. They have a natural pioneering spirit and enjoying being the first to do something special … to go where others have either baulked or simply failed.
They do, nevertheless have an ability to remain focused on their objective, and only a fool would bet against them. Despite their quick temper, their anger is usually short-lived. They tend to forgive and forget without having to consciously make an effort to do so.

Personality
Close behind the Ram comes the Bull and one could expect even greater fireworks. Not so. People born in this sign tend to be slow to anger and are content with a slower, more studied approach. Contrary to common beliefs, they are reluctant to get easily riled, but don’t ever push them too far! Get them really angry and they’ll make short work of you.
They are very down-to-earth, like their creature comforts, and have a steady but sure determination to succeed. Despite their apparent slow progress, they are going to rise to the top in their chosen field. They are appreciative of beauty, which makes them artistic by nature. They can be materialistic, which might be their way of attaining security.

Personality
Twins make typically good sharers, and they make excellent communicators, which stems from their willingness to share. They tend to be social creatures, full of enthusiasm for their latest deeds or projects and excited to let others know. Ideas are continually flooding through them, which makes it more difficult for them to focus and concentrate for long periods of time.
They love to play games and are very skilled at it. They are alert, very adaptable, but also tend to be somewhat superficial because their minds are constantly flitting from one subject or interest to another. They love new things and new discoveries, which leads them to travelling a lot. They are great talkers, can be very funny and witty, and most people take to them easily.

Personality
Like to feel needed and because of this, they are very family-minded and make good friends. They don’t like to let go, of friends or things. Have memories like elephants and tend to be excessively sensitive and touchy. Are inclined to take things personally.
Usually skirt around issues and have difficulty making a direct approach. Can be evasive, but once they’ve got something – or somebody – in their grasp they never let go. They also have fertile imaginations, with a great desire to collect.

22 Claude Debussy (composer)
Personality
Great desire to be recognised by everybody as the king. They like to do things on a grand scale, bringing inevitable admiration from others when they succeed. Unfortunately, they don’t always succeed. Given the right circumstances they can be very lazy, preferring to relax in the sun. Their minds, however, rarely go to sleep, and they are always thinking of something to do that will help them achieve their goal.
Not great on detail, they prefer to see the larger picture, leaving the minutae to others. Like to create new things, partly due to being ego-driven and partly because they need love and attention from others and they see creativity as being one of the best ways to get this.

22 Andrea Bocelli (opera singer), Michael Faraday (physicist)
Personality
A strange mixture of wanting to be a loner while at the same time always wanting to help others – and to know that their efforts are suitably appreciated. They can be very studious and pernickety, even to the point of becoming perfectionists – which can be a pain to everyone else! They worry a lot and almost seem to go out of their way to find something to worry about. Despite these shortcomings, which they see as strengths, they are likeable, diligent, practical and careful.

Personality
The most balanced of people in all ways, they veer away from extremism of any kind. They can be very diplomatic and go out of their way to try and keep the peace. Can be slow to make decisions, which others often find aggravating, but it’s only because they’re looking at all sides first so as to come to the ‘right’ decision. They are sensitive to the needs of others and like to anticipate their needs. They love beauty, dislike ugliness, and appreciate good art.

Personality
Quiet and sensitive – until you disturb them! Scorpios mostly like to be left alone to think about things, which is often seen by others as a kind of shyness. Far from it. They are resourceful and have good man-management skills. Not afraid of confrontation, they can be forceful and demanding of others, while at the same time demanding loyalty. They never forget anyone betraying them and they find it difficult to forgive.

Personality
Adventurers and people of great imagination! Look at the host of writers and composers who share this sign. Have a love, and a definite need, for discovering new things. Like the centaur (half man and half beast), they are often regarded as having dual natures and personalities. But then, the centaur itself is a creature of the imagination, so it is not surprising.
As well as being adventurous, they are also curious, inquiring, often scholarly, with high principles. Nevertheless, they can also be blunt and very much to the point. Make excellent teachers, musicians and writers of all types. Strangely, they can equally excel at sports – perhaps that’s the beast in them.

Personality
Typically, Capricorns are always seeking new heights to scale. It is certainly difficult to keep them down because their natural place, it seems, is in high places, whether it be in social or business terms. They feel it is their right, since they are hard-working, well-disciplined, and have a highly-developed sense of responsibility.
Despite this undisguised ambition, they tend to be both conservative and pragmatic. They know where they want to go and are often patient and tolerant as long as they know they are making progress towards their goals.
