An astrological journey

It is not a new theory, reincarnation. The idea that we experience life after life after life.  It is one way for the soul to grow, expand and develop.  

Nor is it a new idea that people born at certain times of the year have similar personality traits. You know, there are people who are deeply committed and loyal, or born leaders, some people are faster or slower than others.  Interestingly when you look at their date of birth, often it turns out they share the same zodiac sign. 

Neither is the idea new that as we reincarnate our way through life after life, that we choose to experience different personality types.  One theory is that we experience being an Aries followed by a Taurus, Gemini, Cancerian, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarian, Capricorn, Aquarius and finally Pisces. 

It is just an idea, just a theory, but it does make a lot of sense to me that as we enter our life experience, we are faced with obstacles of personality trait just as much as obstacles of a physical and material nature.    I do not know the 'rules', you know, whether you experience each sign once and keep going round the wheel of the zodiac until you have mastered them all or whether you keep being an Aries until you have overcome the excesses of that sign.

This makes sense to me because I have noticed that some people are born without ever experiencing certain stages of development, or getting stuck in Ego, whereas other people never seem to develop past the point of ME! ME ME ME ME ME ME!  Or as I now think of them Mimis.  People who love to talk about themselves, their stuff on and on and on.  Yes, you all know people like this.  Is it a character trait of a particular zodiac sign? 

The idea that we are all here to experience stages of life for a our own personality development, this is what psychologists believe, that we go through stages of life to become fully integrated adults.  Personally, I feel that there are added personality traits which are not individual to each individual, but individual to whole groups of people.  So, a group of Aries people may well be here to learn patience.

Yes, of course patience is a desired state, but my argument is that some people are born patient and it is not something they ever have to struggle with.  Do you see my point? 

I will try and find the areas of life that each sign struggles with and see if I can't make further sense of my little theory.  In the meantime, if you are facing a particular struggle at the moment, take a minute to reflect on people who you know, that you share your sign with and see if they have similar problems. To find someone who has overcome your issue I suspect you will have to look no further than one sign ahead.

To this end Pisces have overcome all the personality issues, I guess their main problem will be dealing with the rest of us!  Lol

Have a lovely sunny Easter Weekend, whatever you are doing xx
