Zodiac signs. How do they affect life?

They argue that difficult times are bound to come. Some couples are afraid to get married or have children.

People believe that if something terrible happens, then a bad year is to blame. Is it so? What do people born in a leap year say? What signs and superstitions exist? In the article you will find answers to these and other questions related to the birth of a child.

What is a leap year

Many people remember from school that there are 365 days in a year. However, when leap year occurs, the situation changes. In February one more day is added. This situation occurs infrequently. Only once every 4 years in February there are not 28, but 29 days.

Since ancient times, it has been believed that a leap year is a terrible time and difficult to survive. After all, it is filled with mysticism and various beliefs, which are hard not to listen to. This is why leap year is bad.

Despite the fact that the year increases by a day, it still has 52 weeks. However, not everyone believes in omens. Many people continue to live, get married, raise and have children.

unlucky day

For a long time, February 29 was considered the most unlucky and unlucky time. Many people were afraid to go outside. It was February 29th that was Kasyanov’s day. This is such a saint who has become famous throughout the world for his bad character and malice. He didn't like helping people. Therefore, those around him did not respect him and believed that this day was named incorrectly.

Now it remains in the past as a legend. Over time, it was forgotten, but people continue to fear February 29th. If possible, many still try not to leave the house on this day.

Leap Year Child: Pros

As a rule, people's opinions differ. Some argue that 366 days a year bring misfortune, while others are sure that there are positive aspects. There is an opinion that people born in a leap year have a lot of talents. These children are a real treasure for society.

According to the eastern horoscope, if your baby was born in a leap year, especially on February 29, he will have not only high abilities, but also charisma, good academic performance, extraordinary thinking, determination and many other positive qualities.

There is another positive side to a leap year. This is an extra day, which decides a lot. Remember this before you believe in superstitions.

Leap Year Child: Cons

There are also negative sides for those born this year. Children who were born on February 29 cannot celebrate their name day every year. They have to celebrate their birthday on February 28 or March 1. If a child was born at night or before 12 noon, he can celebrate this day on February 28. Those born on a leap year celebrate their name day on March 1 after lunch.

There are also insignificant disadvantages - these are signs and superstitions that many people listen to. Therefore, during a leap year, the birth rate decreases. Young couples are still afraid to get married and postpone the wedding for a whole year to avoid troubles.

A very big disadvantage of a leap year is people's fear. It is this quality that prevents a person from relaxing throughout the year. He constantly or periodically expects something unexpected or bad. This makes it difficult for people to make plans, let alone get married or have a child.

Leap year: signs and superstitions

Superstitious people say that you cannot change plans during a leap year. This applies to changing housing, work, and even hair color. They are also sure that if a pregnant woman cuts her hair this year, instead of a gifted child, a mentally retarded one will be born. Therefore, many are sure that a leap year is very dangerous. Signs and superstitions confirm this.

There is a superstition: childbirth during such a period is more painful and difficult. However, doctors have dispelled this myth. They claim that everything depends on the woman’s body and her state of health. Leap year has nothing to do with childbirth.

Some mothers are interested in: “Is it possible to give birth to a child in a leap year?” As mentioned above, these children are more talented, intelligent, resourceful and cunning. It is easy for such people to make their way in life. Therefore, you should not believe in prejudices. If a woman is already pregnant, you can safely give birth to a child in a leap year.

There is an opinion that this year you should not tell fortunes or carol. This is how you play with dark forces. It is considered to be a very dangerous activity.

Leap year children, as noted, are considered gifted people. Especially those born on February 29th. These children are not afraid of both fires and floods. Any disaster bypasses them.

When your baby's first tooth appears, don't celebrate this momentous occasion. After all, very bad molars may grow in the future.

Never talk about your plans. It is believed that you renounce them in advance. This year, envy plays a big role. To get rid of the anger of others, psychics advise getting caught in the first rain in a leap year.

What astrologers and psychics say

Astrologers urge you not to believe in all of the above. They claim that a leap year does not change anything. Every person should think about the good, not the bad. After all, as you know, thoughts materialize.

Psychic Alena Orlova claims that a leap year is a normal period of time. He just has a slightly different energy, which gives a person more strength and opportunity.

Astrologer and numerologist Lev Oesterlein is convinced that a leap year does not bring any negativity. He advises people not to focus on this, but to plan some important thing for February 29 that you keep putting off.

Shaman Beloslov Kolovrat believes that a leap year is the best event. After all, one more extra day a year provides more opportunities.

Psychologists advise not to take all signs and superstitions seriously. After all, you will live in fear and anticipation of the worst events for a whole year. Try to think only about the good as often as possible, ignore failures and believe that you will definitely succeed.

Conclusion

As mentioned above, people born in a leap year are endowed with many talents, they have a good sense of others and have heightened intuition. It is February 29th that is an additional day that can be very useful and gives people even more opportunities.

If you do not believe in signs and superstitions, then the leap year will be very successful. The main thing is not to pay attention to various prejudices that instill excessive fear in a person.

If a child born in a leap year turns out to be sick or with physical disabilities, mothers immediately remember the unfavorable period. However, it is worth remembering that every doctor is convinced that successful childbirth depends on the woman’s body and hereditary predisposition. Therefore, you should not blame the leap year for all your problems. After all, this is a life that is full of not only good, but also bad surprises.

According to another version, the mythological analogue of Capricorn is the ancient Greek deity of forests and hunting Pan, companion of Dionysus, born with goat legs, beard and horns. Pan helped the gods in battles (in particular, he helped Zeus in the fight against the Titans), instilling “panic” fear in his enemies. For helping the gods he was turned into a constellation.

One of the myths tells how Pan almost became a victim of the fire-breathing Typhon. Pursued by Typhon, Pan fell into the waters of the Nile, causing his lower torso to turn into a fish's tail.

These are very serious, practical, agile and stubborn people in achieving their goals, striving for inevitable victory.

They climb to success confidently but carefully, avoiding obstacles along the way, courageously overcoming adversity. Everything they achieve comes to them hard - through persistent, sweat-breaking work, on their own. They set themselves tasks that they can only solve on their own. The more difficult the task, the more focused, energetic and ready they are to solve it.

These are people who do not retreat from anything, who do not stop in the middle of the path to rest. They don't get tired. They need stops only in order to find a suitable next step to continue the ascent, to find the right path to the goal. In the end, they find themselves at the top - these are very persistent, hardy people, the most resilient in the Zodiac - both physically and mentally.

Human Capricorns are often compared to this animal, and their life path is compared to mountain paths along which a goat climbs to the top. The same perseverance and caution, testing the reliability of the ground under your feet (“you can’t take a step without feeling”), patiently enduring adversity, endurance. To all this you can add wisdom. Capricorns need it, just like the goat in the mountains: recklessness can be fatal. Therefore, Capricorns know how to get along with people and do not enter into open conflicts so as not to make enemies for themselves. They silently swallow grievances, ignore unflattering reviews, may seem harmless, know how to adapt to situations and people, give in, and remain in the shadows until the right moment. This is how the goat merges with the rock in order to remain unnoticed by the hunter.

Outwardly, Capricorns do not give the impression of people who have an undeniable chance of success. They don’t get noticed, don’t gain authority with brilliant speeches and stunning ideas, don’t show off or advertise their advantages. Their behavior is even and calm, their manners are soft and restrained.

Capricorns can often seem unambitious and not eager for power. But one fine moment, suddenly everyone will see him at the top, he will be ahead of all contenders for the championship. And no one knows that this quiet, not attracting attention to himself, usually calm observer of what is happening around him, not making any breakthroughs, nevertheless persistently walked towards the goal - and achieved it thanks to his seriousness, non-impulsiveness, inner strength - fortitude, hard work, the ability to give all your best. He was not distracted from his goal by trifles, tricks and games; he worked selflessly, daily and persistently, and achieved what was expected of others.

Capricorns do not understand slackers, because they themselves are never lazy and consider laziness to be one of the main obstacles in achieving a goal, as well as envy, carelessness, eccentricity and other vices inherent in losers, which he, Capricorn, will perhaps regret, but will not respect . Capricorns respect only those who occupy a fairly high and strong position, for this is the ideal to which they strive.

People of this sign, who carefully consider their steps, are distrustful and cautious, do not like changes and any moves that can nullify their efforts, and then they will have to start all over again, and Capricorns do not like to return. Therefore, they are conservative and reject new ideas that are fraught with changes in life and deprivation of what they have achieved. These are solid and stable people.

Capricorns are prudent, economical and can be content with little. Success, achievements, prestige, recognition mean more to them than wealth. A luxurious life is not for Capricorns. They love this lifestyle in order to have a constant, albeit small, but guaranteed income. They will not take risks: it could undermine their material well-being. Therefore, it is quite possible that Capricorn, afraid of losing what he has, refuses good business offers and misses the chance. In this, Capricorns are also consistent and also stubborn. They want to stand firmly on the ground, be secure and not depend on others. They know how to achieve this and stick to the planned actions.

Capricorns do not give in to any illusions. They seem callous, lacking human affections and friends, and withdrawn. In fact, these are people who control their emotional impulses and emotions. Capricorns have them, but Capricorns will not publicly demonstrate them and will not reveal their souls to anyone - such is their nature.

Capricorns are strict, not inclined to joke, and behave with dignity. But these are timid, sensitive people and can suddenly fall into melancholy, succumb to despair, and depression. They are courteous with loved ones, ready to give practical advice and come to the rescue. They respect their parents and treat old people with respect, appreciating their life experience.

Often, in old age, Capricorns realize that they were too busy with their “rise”, took life too seriously, that ordinary earthly joys passed them by, and try to somehow make up for lost time, especially since Capricorns are usually unsuccessful in marriage, especially in early marriage. . They are helped in this “taking revenge” by the amazing ability of people of this zodiac sign with age to become neither more conservative nor worse, but, on the contrary, to acquire a lighter character than they had before.

Character Aquarius ambiguous. Saturn makes them melancholic, indulging in sad memories, and Uranus pushes them to rebellion, to the destruction of old traditions.

But still, they are naturally calm, kind, helpful, soft, sensitive and at the same time powerful.

Aquarians strive for great travel, new sensations, unknown horizons and new friends.

Those born under the sign of Aquarius are attractive with their humanity; they are ready to help even strangers. Aquarians are constantly surrounded by acquaintances, but they do not have many friends. They care not about quantity, but about quality. Long-term and serious relationships are usually not maintained for long, as they prefer new acquaintances to permanent friendship. People make acquaintances quickly, everyone feels comfortable with them, people are drawn to them because they seem to radiate light. They do not trust everyone, but only close friends. If Aquarius loses interest in a person, his affection cannot be returned by any means.

In communicating with friends and loved ones, Aquarians allow only equality and do not recognize any oppression or coercion. They are confident that mutual understanding and agreement can be reached.

Aquarians are free from prejudices and do not recognize authorities or traditions, as they believe that all this limits individual freedom. The opinions of others do not affect them at all, since Aquarians are confident that everything in this world is in continuous change and movement. They express their opinions about others directly and frankly, but do not impose them on others. They sympathize with all people, understand everyone, sympathize with everyone and are ready to help at the first call.

Thanks to their subtle nervous system, Aquarians feel people very well; they can predict other people's secret desires.

People of the Aquarius zodiac sign have an amazing ability to calm people down.

Aquarians sympathize with eccentrics who attract them with their oddities. Among Aquarius’ friends there will always be an eccentric whom he will look after, protect, and help, but this will not be the first person he meets: he watched him for a long time, studied him carefully, tried to understand the motives of his actions.

Sometimes Aquarians prefer loneliness to communication. At such moments, it is better not to touch Aquarius - he is tired, he spent a lot of energy on helping others. Laziness and inaction, however, do not last long.

Aquarians are calm about the weaknesses of others, but do not allow themselves any concessions. They are demanding only of themselves, but not of others.

Being surrounded by people, they can at the same time be lonely and incomprehensible. Astrologers claim that people will understand Aquarius only after fifty years, since they live in the future and only occasionally descend to this sinful earth.

There are many geniuses among Aquarius, much more than among people of other signs. They were born to transform the world and improve society. People born under the sign of Aquarius are the hope of humanity and its ideals.

At first glance, Aquarians seem to be idealists, but upon closer study of their actions it becomes clear that they are realists. They are endowed with too much intuition to build castles in the air and believe in something ephemeral. They are destined to strive for the future, even if only obstacles are placed in their path. During such periods, their rebellious character manifests itself: they are called upon to fight for freedom and against all prohibitions.

But sometimes their reaction is unpredictable. It may seem that they are avoiding open struggle, but this is a mistaken opinion. They remain true to their ideals and views, but consider a long and meaningless discussion a waste of time, and are even ready to agree with the wrong opinion, retreating to previously prepared positions in order to gather new strength.

They consist of many surprises. Their actions are sometimes very difficult to explain: Aquarians act as they see fit, without coordinating their actions with anyone. But this does not mean that they act spontaneously. The originality of Aquarius is caused by the situation in which they find themselves at the will of people. They are constantly busy analyzing the actions of friends and enemies, they are interested in solving riddles. But when the truth is revealed to Aquarius, they lose all interest in both the problem and the person.

For Aquarius, truth is above all, they will never give up on it. Aquarians are not original, they oppose inertia, it gives them great pleasure to rebel against public opinion, especially since they know what the reaction to their actions will be.

They are subtle politicians. They have the ability to instantly grasp the essence. They can simultaneously talk and listen to what is happening nearby.

Aquarians do not tolerate having someone's will imposed on them. They believe that they themselves have no moral right to determine what others should do or how they should behave.

Aquarians are disgusted by lies and deception; They sense deceitful and hypocritical people a mile away, but they do not refuse to meet them. Convinced that they are right, Aquarians move away from these people, refusing any sort of showdown with them. They are not cowards, it’s just that fighting and sorting things out are not part of their plans. They have a completely different philosophy.

Sagittarius- dynamic, optimistic, purposeful people. Their movements are fast, energetic, sweeping, which is why they are often clumsy. The facial expression is open and welcoming.

Sagittarians love to talk, think and are absolutely unable to sit still.

They are socially active, hard-working, self-confident, and are suitable for the role of leader. They have an ineradicable thirst for experiments, for searches, including spiritual ones. Sagittarians are no strangers to thinking about the meaning of life, philosophizing, and being passionate about religious issues.

Their love of experimentation is associated with their fearlessness, their ability to take risks, ignoring dangers, and even putting their lives on the line.

Sagittarians are always focused on the future. They need a goal to lead them forward. Having reached one, they immediately look for a new one, and in this search they are tireless, showing amazing ingenuity and imagination. They cannot mark time, they need to constantly create, act, while rejecting old, proven methods.

Such people are naturally curious about everything new and, with inspiration and enthusiasm, take on a task that may reveal something unknown to them. If there are obstacles on the way in the form of traditions, conventions, or any restrictions, Sagittarius destroys them without pity, preaching a person’s right to the free development of his individuality. These are rebels, rebelling against generally accepted rules and against authoritarianism.

The goals of Sagittarius are high and humane, even idealistic, and these people will never stoop to philistine interests, base motives and deception. Unfortunately, sometimes Sagittarius themselves do not know what they want - they yearn for something unearthly, incomprehensible, although in general a sad mood is not typical for people of this sign.

These are very addicting natures, they are so unrestrained and courageous that they fall under blows and stumble. But this does not stop them: Sagittarius can quickly recover from troubles and be ready again to continue their rapid run through life. Their inescapable optimism helps them in this. Thanks to him, Sagittarius manages to cope with difficulties much faster than people of other zodiac signs. They are rarely defeated by life’s circumstances and can find a way out of any trouble. In addition, Sagittarians are lucky.

However, trying to find more and more new areas of application of strength, Sagittarius may abandon the previous task and not bring their plans to completion. Here they lack thoroughness, patience, painstakingness, and the ability to delve into details. They easily turn away from what they have planned if it requires them to be judicious and take a long time to complete - this is burdensome for them.

Sagittarians do not like it when the burden of obligations rests on their shoulders - they avoid burdening and binding themselves with contracts and promises and try to reserve the right to change their decision, direction, and be free in their actions.

The characteristic features of Sagittarius are sincerity and honesty. They don't know how to lie at all. This is their principle - to speak only the ruthless truth, no matter how tactless and bitter it may be. Often their straightforwardness is cruel, and the fact that they “cut the truth” in the eyes can plunge those around them into shock. But Sagittarius do not know how to live differently. In their frankness, they reveal themselves as ruthlessly as they do in relation to others. They speak openly about their experiences and feelings without embarrassment and consider this a manifestation of the highest trust in their interlocutor. But their desire for the truth at any cost does not have bad intentions (although this makes them unable to keep secrets).

People Zodiac sign Scorpio They do not know fear or barriers, they are courageous and persistent, they know how to endure hardships, they are extremely resilient and are able to rise after blows of fate.

They will not flinch either in the face of danger or in the face of death, they will not be stopped by any obstacles or complications: Scorpios are able to understand the cause of the obstacles and eliminate it from their path in life.

These are born brave fighters who, no matter what, go towards their goal and achieve success, no matter what sacrifices it costs and no matter what methods they have to go to achieve it.

Scorpios don't get embarrassed, don't blush, don't get nervous before a test, don't fuss or get nervous. They are calm and calm, balanced and feel superior to others. They are not afraid of rivals. Thanks to their will, determination, and nature rich in vitality, they win easily, without tension, so from the outside it may seem like banal luck.

Scorpios have the ability to achieve anything they want - they are simply magically omnipotent.

These people never follow the wind, the easy way. Their life is a storm, passions, heroism. Where others fail, they find success. They are helped by the ability to take risks accurately, calculatedly, and for sure. They despise self-doubt and are aware of their abilities.

They also know about their magical power, which they emit. They have a hypnotic, piercing gaze, they perfectly understand the intentions and motives of the behavior of others, they are difficult to mislead, and it is impossible to hide anything from them. With some mysterious force, they attract people to themselves, causing an attraction to themselves that is difficult to resist.

People like their directness, their inability to hesitate or evade an answer, to wriggle out. Scorpios give their word and keep it. They speak about others openly and directly what they think; do not shy away from the questions posed with all sorts of “maybe”, “we’ll see” and other ways. They never flatter, and if they praise, it is sincere and deserved. They themselves love to be treated honestly and openly, not to play hide and seek, not to be led by the nose.

It may not always be pleasant for people to listen to straightforward judgments about themselves, but Scorpios speak bluntly, they are ruthless, and do not hide their attitude. They are just as merciless towards themselves; they prefer the truth, no matter how bitter it is for them to listen to it.

Scorpios do not allow themselves to cry and be whiners.

If they are forced to suffer, if something is a burden or causes them pain, they decisively get rid of their cause; they are not able to complain, become limp or humiliate themselves.

Not every person is capable of such relationships, when you have to tell only the truth, when they squeeze the motives of your actions out of you, when they literally attack you, take you by surprise with questions and demand a sincere answer, when they tell you impartial things, without taking into account your age and sensitivity of nature, when they are not going to take care of you, wipe away your tears, when they demand strength and perseverance from you, force you to be courageous and fearless.

But anyone who is friends with a person born under the sign of Scorpio knows how reliable he is, what a loyal and noble person he is, how he knows how to support and rush to defense, and wisely advise; how grateful he is for attention and care; how right he is when he teaches not to give in to moods, not to pay attention to other people’s insults, to be above them, not to be seduced by flattery and compliments, but to control yourself, to be the master of your life and know your own worth.

But Scorpios know their worth, they care little about other people’s opinions, they cannot be blinded and misled by streams of praise, they do not need advice. Gentle in appearance, they do not forgive insults and insults, they are very proud and independent.

Scorpios are people of duty. They are faithful to their work and their word, cannot stand deception, are merciless towards traitors and themselves reliably keep other people's secrets. In their relationships with people they are decent and honest.

With their strong character, Scorpios command respect not only from friends, but also from sworn enemies. And it is not difficult for them to make enemies: Scorpios are uncompromising, vengeful towards those who have inflicted a wound on them, they can be irritable, go into conflict, argue, quarrel; they are impulsive in their passions and want their plans to be fulfilled immediately, without concessions or ceremony.

Scorpios do not like idleness, they are very businesslike and strive to improve everything they do and what surrounds them. They do not stop there, they constantly redo and improve something, they want reforms and updates, their goal is absolute perfection. They are able to destroy the old in order to build the new.

These people love power. Money serves them to strengthen power. Scorpios have a strong sense of ownership.

Soul Zodiac sign Libra consists of two contradictory principles. Doubts and indecision constantly overcome Libra, which leads to internal struggle.

They can only overcome self-doubt themselves and do not like to be pushed or rushed when they are focused on making a decision.

Libra cannot stand impatience, quarrels, or conflicts around them. All this leads them into nervous excitement, confusion, and imbalance. Their indecisiveness often creates additional difficulties that they have to overcome with renewed vigor. But despite this, they never do anything hastily.

Venus generously rewarded people of this sign with kindness, tenderness, justice, elegance, grace, and the ability to love. But they are also characterized by naivety and stubbornness. When achieving a goal, their stubbornness does not feed on prohibited techniques. The main thing is the desire for balance, harmony, diplomacy. They avoid extremes, manifestations of anger, their behavior can rarely seem eccentric to others, they are not characterized by such states when they are forced to scream, losing their temper. They approach sorrows and joys, failures and successes with philosophical logic. This helps them avoid serious breakdowns.

People born under this zodiac sign are opponents of prejudice and unfair accusations. At the same time, they deny blind faith in authorities and admiration for them. For Libra, the main thing is to get to the point in all matters. And any confrontation, quarrels, anger, anxiety causes heartache in them. They will never approve of fighting for a place in the sun through the humiliation of another person; for them, justice and peacefulness are the main thing in life.

It is very important for Libra to be in an atmosphere of love and sympathy. Feeling indifference to themselves, they feel sad and can become depressed. But they will not splash out their emotions and control them with their minds.

Libras try to live without any problems, so they often give in to other people's opinions and are the first to make peace in a quarrel. Their charm will melt any ice and remove any tension in communicating with people. People of this sign are very sociable, and they are real diplomats: they have the ability to reconcile people who are hostile to each other. Very sensitive to the state of the two sides, Libra can intuitively understand and connect opposites.

Libras are excellent strategists. Before taking on any business, they must weigh everything and foresee the outcome of their undertakings. Libra soberly assesses the situation and intuitively finds a way out of a difficult situation.

If Libra has a thirst for fight, no one is able to stop them or dissuade them. Stubbornness takes over. But they will never agree that all means are good in achieving the goal, except for one thing - a charming smile. It is always their main weapon and means for achieving success.

Born under sign of Virgo prudent, judicious, economical, truthful, punctual, with a logical and practical mind.

They love to bring everything to perfection and completeness, they strive to restore order to everything that surrounds them, since they are completely helpless in the face of chaos. Virgos cannot escape any kind of disorder - neither at home nor at work. And their affairs, things and thoughts are always in order.

These are great workers, always busy and absorbed in work. They are dexterous, their hands are, as they say, “in the right place”, they know how to do everything themselves. Striving for perfection, they work day and night, without knowing rest. They simply cannot be idle; they always have a lot to worry about. Moreover, it happens that these worries are quite minor: Virgo, like the Mole from I. A. Krylov’s fable, is “a great beast for small things.” But these “small things” take up all the free time of the conscientious, careful and obsessed Virgo to do everything in the best possible way.

Virgo very disciplined people, constant concern is visible on their face, and the thought that not all tasks have been completed, not everything has yet been polished, leads them into constant anxiety. Puzzling over how to organize everything, Virgos can drive themselves to despair, and the love of order can develop into mania.

They tend to constantly analyze and control themselves, while they waste a lot of precious time, often missing out on excellent chances.

Both in actions and in thoughts Virgo accurate, thorough, correct. They demand the same from others. Intemperance of feelings is alien to them; they do not tolerate laziness, lies, vulgarity, unnecessaryness, and wastefulness.

Virgo they like to argue, participate in disputes, they are very observant and critical, their criticism is sharp and hits the pride of others. Annoyed by someone's stupidity, or irresponsibility, or laziness, or frivolity, Virgos can become picky, petty, grumpy to the point of being boring, and cynical and arrogant. And if they cannot openly express their criticism, then they simply suffer from it, these human vices are so disgusting to their nature. People are scared off by their sharp tongue and selfishness, their lack of understanding of jokes and humor.

Constantly criticizing everyone and everything, Virgo nevertheless, they don’t see their shortcomings, and if someone reproaches Virgo for being picky, petty, or pedantic, they simply won’t understand, looking at her in bewilderment and at the same time reading yet another moral. You need to be careful when criticizing people of this zodiac sign: they are vindictive and can even take revenge.

Sami Virgo follow their principles, do what they demand from others: they have an orderly, planned life. But Virgos don’t like surprises. Sudden changes deprive them of the ground under their feet, unsettle them, confuse them and even slow them down.

But still Virgo- these are very sweet, subtle natures. In their facial features there is grace, calmness, purity; they are charming and attractive. They are always dressed carefully, combed neatly: they are no less concerned about their appearance than about everything else.

Their manners and actions are modest and devoid of extravagance, Virgo They are gentle and calm in communication, they will never deliberately behave in such a way as to attract the attention of others, and they will not behave defiantly.

Virgo They protect their independence, do not reveal their feelings to anyone, preventing attempts to invade their soul. Personal experiences, personal life are their property.

Virgo They are great individualists and also attach great importance to material property. Virgo They are very thrifty, but in their thriftiness they proceed from practical necessity, they do not need anything extra, excess is alien to them.

In financial matters Virgo are also economical, they cannot be accused of squandering: they earn money only through their labor, and thus they Dev valuable. However, Virgos are not greedy. They will always help anyone who needs financial help. But at the same time, they must know that the people they help are not lazy, not idle, and not beggars.

With the same generosity Virgo refer to those who are weak and helpless, including animals.

Virgo, without a doubt, very reliable friends and workmates. You can completely rely on them. They promise only what they can fulfill, but they will always keep their promise. And the assigned work will be completed diligently, without unnecessary fuss and, of course, on time. To work, to serve people and the cause is their need, calling and duty, and Virgo always looking for new areas of application for their strength. They work selflessly, regardless of personal losses, limiting themselves in everything if necessary for the business. Virgos do not wait for gifts from fate - they achieve everything on their own, and in this they are helped by a passion for knowledge, an excellent memory and a thirst for learning until they are very old.

Lions- people of extraordinary vitality and desire to live. They are sociable, cheerful, cheerful, always in the center of attention and extend their power to others generously and willingly.

Because Leo can put their burden, their problems on his shoulders, take them under his protection, instill optimism, illuminate them with love of life, bestow them with love; give an example of resilience, the ability to rise up after failures (and Leos quite often receive blows from fate), maintain dignity and self-confidence, direct all energy to creation and creativity, be purposeful and not give up. All this a lion gives to others, teaches all this, since he himself fully possesses these qualities.

In family Lions They also feel appropriate to their rank. Their house is gorgeous, it’s a palace, it has everything, including necessities and luxury. In it they are real owners who know how to create an environment suitable for Leo, so that it would be pleasant to live here, enjoy life, and receive guests.

Usually Lions- family people, among them you rarely meet old maids or bachelors. They are frantically looking for a girlfriend, a friend in life, but at the same time they never impose themselves, they need love and devotion. They need to love themselves - this is their happiness. AND Lions they know how to be loved, they know how to love, to be knights, not to suppress those for whom they have sincere, real feelings, to be very caring both for their spouse and for their children.

However, family life is often Lviv does not fold, may collapse. It is difficult with them for those who do not want and do not know how to accept them as they are: with all their pride, inability to listen to other people’s advice and obey; with their extravagance, extravagance, love of luxury, fireworks of life, abundance; outbursts of anger, conceit, unbridledness; a guiding style of behavior, denial of any restrictions and oppression, devotion to numerous friends, the desire to see and hear everything, to know about others; the desire to have more and more of everything, including recognition and admiration for them.

But it’s easy for those who know how to be quite independent with them, who do not provoke them to display their lion’s nature: Lions ready and capable of friendship and partnership.

Like , these are mysterious people, often incomprehensible to others. The Moon has a great influence on their character, endowing them with a subtle, sensitive, excitable, vulnerable nervous system, rich in intuition, emotionality, and romance.

Cancer people love to dream, fantasize, and often need privacy. Until maturity, they retain a childish perception of the world around them; they are interested in everything that is incomprehensible, mysterious, strange, although it is quite possible that they will hide it from others. At the same time, Cancers are by no means sterile dreamers - they are real realists.

These are very impressionable and therefore vulnerable people. It is very easy to offend them, especially since they have a heightened perception of the slightest nuances in changes in the spiritual atmosphere around them, they notice changes in people’s moods that are not visible to others, they feel a change in attitudes towards them. They are especially sensitive to negative emotions directed at them, to ill will, sidelong glances, and hostility. They are hurt by someone else's callousness, a carelessly thrown word addressed to them, ridicule, a bad joke - everything that can hurt their pride. Moreover, this may even be a trifle, but Cancers perceive everything that is directed against them so acutely that because of a trifle they can be seriously offended and turn it into a tragedy.

Thus, Cancers' imagination can lead them to depression. They can get sick from feeling unnecessary, superfluous, unloved, from the fact that it seemed to them that they were treated poorly. And from real, real troubles, people of this sign can also become seriously ill. Positive emotions, a feeling of joy, happiness can suddenly cure them, illnesses go away as if they never happened. They really need a pleasant, kind attitude so that they perk up again.

Cancers are constantly looking for a friendly society. They want only friends everywhere.

These people avoid troubles, hide from adversity in their “shell”, hide there, and no life storms will be scary for them if they did it on time. And what helps them isolate themselves in time is their constant alertness and intuition, the desire to protect themselves and prevent what could harm them and lead to a breakdown. So sensitive Cancers know how to avoid life’s collisions; their vulnerable heart is not as defenseless as it might seem. They themselves believe in luck, in a happy future, in pleasant surprises.

Naturally, people who are keenly aware of other people’s moods are themselves subject to mood swings. They are sometimes cheerful, sometimes sad, sometimes friendly, sometimes gloomy, laughter gives way to tears, and again they joke, and again they cry in their hearts. And all these feelings are sincere. If Cancer laughs, he is truly happy and cheerful. If he cries, something really touched him to the core. You can never accuse Cancer of being an artist, “playing for the audience.”

The “public” is just as susceptible to the mood of Cancers as they react to their surroundings. The mood of Cancers is transmitted to others instantly, their feelings are so strong. If Cancers are irritated, everyone around them also gets excited, and the atmosphere of the relationship can become tense. If Cancers are sad, their waves of melancholy envelop those around them, plunging them into despondency too. Therefore, it is quite difficult to live with these people - they seem to penetrate with their nerves everyone who surrounds them, and control this environment, as if pulling people’s strings, like puppeteers. And people obey the will of Cancers, without wanting to do so, being constantly in an atmosphere of nervous tension. When leaving, Cancers cause a sigh of relief - people become masters of their feelings and moods. Therefore, it is not surprising that people often become irritated only by the very presence of Cancer and may unwittingly come into conflict with him.

Cancers are secretive people. They can hide their feelings and thoughts deeply, and experience grievances in solitude and loneliness, withdrawing into themselves for a long time. Their reproaches are silent. Cancers are distrustful of strangers and do not allow them to enter their lives. They are cautious and reluctant to share their impressions and thoughts: this may expose them to others. So it is not surprising that Cancers remain not fully recognized even by their loved ones.

However, friends, acquaintances, even unfamiliar people willingly talk, communicate with people of this sign, share their sorrows with them, because Cancers know how to make friends, they are very patient people, they know how to wait for years. Cancers love to help others and keep other people's secrets as securely as their own. They are endowed with the gift of attracting others to themselves, winning them over, delving deeply into their spiritual world, intuitively finding the right word, giving them their participation and sincerity. Their empathy is genuine, sincere, and people feel it and are grateful and devoted friends with them.

Cancers are not only ready to help, but also know how to do it, because they are wise, never repeat their mistakes, they are taught by their own experience, and over the years they become wiser, since they always take into account the lessons of life. Cancers never forget about them, control today's situations and are alert to future ones.

This wariness and analysis of future consequences often make Cancers hesitate. They can wait for someone to get ahead of them and come to their aid earlier. You should not, having noticed this, reproach them for callousness, selfishness or laziness. This speaks to their instinct of self-preservation, forcing them to be cautious, prudent, and to keep changing situations under control.

Cancers are the kind of people who do not like to obey. They have a very developed desire for self-affirmation, strong pride, they want to dominate others. They go adamantly towards everything they want to achieve and do not stop there. They always need more and more of everything than they have. They always lack something, and they have a goal - to achieve it. Let it be success, or someone’s love, or a position, or material wealth. However, this desire is hidden from those around them; Cancers hide their goals from prying eyes. But their goals are definite, and their grip is tenacious, their “claws” will not miss their target.

They hold on to what they have just as tightly. Cancers are characterized by hoarding and frugality. This applies equally to their property, money, food, and family traditions. Cancers do not throw away old things, books; they are connoisseurs of good food and gourmets, they stock up on food for future use; will never be left with only a penny in their pocket. Home and family are dear to them, they love their parents and children, and preserve family foundations and traditions. They are adherents of everything proven, old, reliable, familiar and do not like to change either their appearance or their tastes, they cannot stand rearrangements in the house, nothing sudden, no innovations or changes in anything.

The past is dearer and more valuable to them; they are distrustful of the new. History occupies and attracts them, they delve into it and remember everything. These are true patriots of their region, city, village.

Cancers are also nature lovers, passionate travelers, and they know how to see beauty around them - this sense of beauty is highly developed in them. They love solitude near the water, in general they love water, water tourism, sports, and swimming.

With age, Cancers do not lose their romanticism; they believe in success and good luck. Their hopes are not in vain: the older they get, the luckier they are, the less grief they have, the more fortune accompanies them.

Describe features Gemini It’s not easy, since they are constantly changing and in constant motion. In their changeable nature there are always two people present.

Duality can be seen even in appearance. Hair can be light and dark, both, as if striped. Geminis are usually tall, slender and agile in their movements. Their facial features seem to be carved from stone. Beautiful eyes come in grey, green, blue or light brown. The look is restless. The nose can be long and straight or more refined, and the forehead is often high.

Their appearance is not affected by age; for many years they look young thanks to their swiftness, mobility, dexterity and quick reaction.

True Geminis find it painful to sit quietly in one place; they are in constant motion all day long: calling somewhere, talking to someone, rushing somewhere. They constantly come up with new ideas, plans, plans. Thirst for activity is the normal state of Gemini. Without this, they get bored and can become depressed. They can playfully multitask. In their activities, monotony and monotony are unacceptable.

You can never expect punctuality from Gemini. They are always late, five minutes are not enough for them to get to work or a meeting on time, because in these last minutes they are trying to do the work that would have to be done after the working day.

Routine work turns them into dull and uninteresting people. While we struggle to do one thing, they manage to do twice as much. They can change jobs, lifestyles, and places of residence just as quickly as their thoughts race. They speak quickly and listen at the same speed. Due to the speed of mental processes, a clear opinion on a certain issue, slow-witted people, conservatives irritate them.

Geminis can easily get out of any situation with minimal losses; they easily adapt to circumstances thanks to their resourcefulness and dexterity. They are reputed to be talkative and sociable, they rarely manage to keep their mouth shut.

In the depths of their souls, Geminis strive for the ideal, but, despite their great imagination, they cannot define it. Money, fame, love - this is not enough for them to be happy. They are rarely satisfied with what they have achieved. It constantly seems to them that great success and appreciation await them in another place and in another business. To achieve all this they lack consistency and patience. Since the impulse does not always coincide with the expected result, Geminis often experience a feeling of self-doubt, are nervous, and irritated. Nervousness permeates everything around.

Sociability and isolation alternate between them so quickly and unexpectedly that those around them can never guess what they will be like in the next moment. With a sweet charm, they infect their acquaintances with an easy-going attitude towards life. Gemini patronizes everyone, and this is also done with sweet charm.

Geminis often feel a deep need to behave in complete opposition to their desires. The amazing liveliness of speech makes them clever politicians. They know how to deeply hide their true intentions, turning even a difficult situation into personal gain.

Geminis tend to conduct discussions with surprising intensity. They usually love to talk, but do not know how to listen.

Gemini's interests are varied - literary creativity, studying foreign languages, politics. They do not achieve great success only because they like to chase two birds with one stone at the same time. Always in pursuit of something elusive. Consistently, they only do things that really interest them.

Deep and lasting attachments to old memories, places, people and things are not typical for Geminis.

Taurus They do not react spontaneously to anything, they are solid, unfussy, and difficult to unbalance. They have calm, measured, confident movements, leisurely speech, a strong physique, and all this creates the impression of them as strong and strong-willed people.

Usually Taurus are good-natured, friendly, radiate goodwill, very patient and know how to remain lenient for quite a long time in relation to what they do not like. However, if you test their patience for too long and make them angry, these people lose their temper so much that they become uncontrollable and indomitable. When angry, Taurus are scary and unsafe; no obstacles are a hindrance to them.

Taurus do not like it when people object to them, when pressure is put on them, when advice that they are usually ready to gratefully accept is expressed in the form of an order. They are impressed by people who are ready to make concessions, who agree with them, who know how to adapt to them and who do not seek to infringe on them in any way, much less to enslave them. Yes, this is impossible to do - to subordinate their will to someone else’s reins: Taurus fiercely defend themselves.

Taurus is an earthly zodiac sign. From the earth they received their inexhaustible strength, common sense and excellent health. They do not complain about adversity - neither material nor mental. They are incomprehensibly efficient, and it is this quality that brings them success in life, especially if their activities are connected in some way with the earth, because Taurus love the earth, nature and try to be useful to them. It so happens that no matter what Taurus is busy with in life, sooner or later he will feel a craving and love for the earth.

Taurus also like to live closer to nature, but they do not like city life. They go to relax and work at their dacha, to visit their grandmother in the village - they feel more comfortable there than in the noise of the city, there they draw new strength from Mother Earth and nature, receiving a full-fledged emotional charge.

And in general, Taurus loves coziness and comfort, their home, which for them is a reliable fortress, fencing them off from the bustle of life.

There should be children in the house of Taurus; this is also a necessary condition for him to ensure the inviolability of his fortress. Taurus loves children and devotes all their efforts to instilling in them the same homeliness and teaching them the skills and abilities that they themselves possess.

People of this sign do not like to leave their home and prefer to see guests at their place rather than go on a visit. They are hospitable, welcoming hosts.

Taurus are very devoted to their family, exceptionally decent in all respects. Their strength and reliability bring confidence to their family; behind them it really is like being behind a stone wall.

Taurus are true to their habits, cannot stand change, they need regularity and stability. Changes in life can unsettle them for a long time - until they find themselves in a familiar environment and until everything returns to normal. They tolerate troubles no less well. And although Taurus does not show that they are upset, they will not throw out their emotions over the edge, but inside they are tense and angry, waiting for everything to return to normal.

Taurus often deny that material well-being is dear to them and that money, as a necessary condition for acquiring it, interests them. But still it is so. Prosperity gives the stability and tranquility this sign needs. Owners, they are nevertheless not misers and will no doubt provide financial assistance to friends who find themselves in a difficult situation. But they don’t waste money in vain and don’t understand waste.

So, these are respectable and very practical people: home... children... stability... attachment to the land... acquired wealth and pride from it... desire for friendship and acquaintance with worthy, respectable and respected people.. But Taurus are not snobs. They know how to enjoy life, love luxury and the feeling of celebration and comfort both in the surrounding material world and in their soul.

They are not alien to human weaknesses, preferences and shortcomings. They can be obligatory - and capricious; pliable - and stubborn; efficient - and lazy; active - and passive; dispassionate - and sensual.

Speaking about sensuality, it must be said that Taurus are not indifferent to the opposite sex. And they themselves are charming and attractive. But their character does not allow them to take a step towards themselves. They are passive, and are also confident that they will attract the object of their love to themselves without much effort on their part. They wait patiently and never pursue their chosen one, but they are ready and even love to show signs of attention in the form of gifts, which, by the way, they skillfully select. These include flowers, which Taurus are partial to, music records, paintings (Taurus love painting and music), and much more, beautiful and luxurious: Taurus are great masters when it comes to gifts.

In their chosen ones, Taurus values ​​understanding, honesty, and patience. And just as they themselves are not intrusive and not aggressive, they prefer to see the same in others, and they cannot be forced and cannot be conquered by force.

Aries- harsh, hot-tempered, impulsive people. They have a strong and authoritative character, and they strive for leadership and want to be the first in everything.

At the same time, they do not care that they may seem tactless, too straightforward, or narcissistic in front of others. They are not worried about other people's reactions to their behavior.

Aries absolutely cannot afford to remain silent when they can intervene and express their point of view. Even if she disagrees with others, even if she puts someone in an awkward position - Aries do not notice this. The main thing is that they are frank and caring, they will not stand aside, they are fighters for justice: this justifies them in their own eyes.

And indeed, Aries rush into battle selflessly, bravely, with ardent confidence that this is the only way everyone should do.

They always want to succeed in everything, to be recognized, do not expect mercy from anyone and defend their interests.

Aries easily become angry and irritated, but they also quickly cool down. Usually these are friendly, albeit ironic, people with a good smile, favorites of their environment. For all their temper, they know how to be reasonable, settle relationships, and admit their guilt. They do not consider it shameful to confess before an enemy: their sense of justice prevails.

In their quest for primacy, Aries are self-confident, but not without reason: they become the first. They are driven forward by a thirst for recognition and fame. They have an unshakable belief that they can do everything better than anyone else, and this is often the case! As a rule, these are people who achieve everything they set their mind to.

What helps Aries with this?

First, their optimism. They believe even in impossible goals. And they believe in themselves very much.

Secondly, an amazing charge of energy. Aries do not know how to sit back and go towards the goal themselves, and do not wait for it to approach.

Thirdly, the ability to go ahead, overcoming any obstacles. And the more obstacles and difficulties, the more interesting they are, the more quickly they move towards the desired success.

Fourthly, luck. Being the instigators of all sorts of undertakings, they are confident of success.

It’s good to be like-minded with Aries: you can take on a common cause with him without fear or doubt, since there will certainly be success. In general, Aries love to attract people with their energy and luck; they like that they make people happy.

Performing noble deeds is the need of people of this sign. This elevates them, arouses the love of others, and gives Aries a feeling of satisfaction. They do not consider themselves when it comes to helping others. They selflessly rush to help - with the same energy with which they defend their interests. If the person to whom Aries has rendered a service does not express gratitude, Aries may be disappointed, although he does not expect it and his charity is absolutely selfless. Aries will not hold anger against such people and are again ready for patronage - they crave it and adore being needed by everyone, today, now.

And in general, today is important for Aries. They need success today, not tomorrow. They don’t remember the past, and tomorrow has not yet come to think about it.

Other people look dull next to Aries. He suppresses them with his scope, energy, generosity of gestures. Basically, he is busy with his own problems, and other people with their concerns are of little interest to him. Yes, he has already divided them: into “bad” and “good”, enemies and friends, and there is no point to him, he simply has no time to waste time thinking about them. Everything is always clear to him: this is white, this is black. There are no nuances for him.

Impatient, explosive Aries can also be calm, kind, and not prone to conflict. Sometimes they can be overwhelmed by depression, especially since they are gullible, like children, and often find themselves disappointed in those around them. But the thirst for life and activity does not allow them to remain in this state for a long time, and stability in anything is not characteristic of them.

These people are so bright and extraordinary, life is so vibrant in them that they cannot help but attract people to them. And next to them, people feel the joy of life and happiness that Aries gives them.

A person’s destiny can be known through the signs of the zodiac, but everything depends on the person.

Items: ,

It cannot be said that on the eve of the New Year, everyone except children is in a good, upbeat mood. The past year has been too full of sad and sad incidents. It doesn’t add to the joy that next year will be a leap year. However, it is not recommended to celebrate the holiday with such a gloomy mood, so let’s try to think rationally about how real our fears are when trying to consider the near future. It is quite possible that this will make the coming 12 months seem less gloomy.

Leap year - what does it mean, is it good or bad?

If the second month of winter has 29 days rather than 28, then the year is called a leap year. It appears due to a slight discrepancy in the number of days in our astronomical calendar with the actual time during which our planet makes a complete revolution around the Sun. Since this happens in 365 days and 6 hours, the scientific world decided to take into account the “extra” day of February that did not fit into the “tail”.

A leap year means that February of this year is one day longer.

In fact, an additional day in a year does not have any impact on the world around us, since its appearance is a tribute to convention.

If negative changes occurred in the lives of people and countries on the eve of a leap year, then the resulting trend, if countermeasures are not taken, will continue due to circumstances, and not because of an “extra” day.

However, people who are distrustful of any changes in life tend to “look for the elephant in every fly” and expect bad things at every opportunity. Due to this, many people imagine social and political troubles during a leap year. It is logical to assume that with such an attitude, many large-scale tasks will be carried out with insufficient zeal and, as a result, the standard of living will definitely decrease as a result. As a result, the leap year will be blamed for the worsening state of affairs, and not their own carelessness.

Wedding during this period

  • In the old days, during leap years, professional matchmakers were left without work, because girls were given the right to independently choose a spouse. It is possible that this is why the expression “you can’t get married” was born - as an indication of the fact that when forming a family, the initiative was transferred to women. Over time, the essence of the tradition was lost, but a cautionary rule appeared that did not recommend starting a family in a year whose February has 29 days. Since it was believed that a married couple was expected to:
  • unstable financial situation,

unhappy life together.

Interestingly, getting divorced in a non-standard year is also not recommended. According to forecasts, such couples are guaranteed a lack of personal happiness in the future. But for the most determined experts in traditional recommendations, a loophole has been left:

If a spouse freed from marriage obligations comes to church with a towel and utters the cherished words “I pay tribute to the leap year, and you, family angel, stand next to me.”

Even for those getting married in a church, a verbal talisman has been invented, which must be pronounced by the priest performing the ceremony. It sounds like this: “I crown with a crown, not a leap end.”

Birth of a child

Superstitions favor newborns in a leap year and promise a good fate in all respects. So you need to be brave, maybe even two.

What does it mean to be born in a long year?

Signs regarding people born in a leap year, oddly enough, are very favorable. Such people are predicted to have luck in business and an easy fate. Those born on a rare day in February are credited with something beyond their ability: the gift of prophecy.

For those born on a “strange day,” this actually means that every three years in a row, legal name days will have to be celebrated either on February 28 or March 1.

What can and cannot be done in a year whose February has 29 days?

You can't do:

  • For the taboo on haircuts (So as not to harm the health of the future child).
  • Tell those planning new events and business projects about their plans. (However, if partners cannot be notified of intentions, then what kind of business will get off the ground?).
  • Drowning kittens. (No comments).
  • Sell ​​any domestic animals (Then the year will definitely seem hungry for livestock farmers).
  • Caroling. (Otherwise a person may be exposed to circumstances under the influence of which he will change greatly).
  • Laying the foundation of a house, building a bathhouse. Otherwise, everything built will soon fall into disrepair or be lost due to fire. (Apparently, in some cities the leap year has been firmly established for a decade and is not going to go away).
  • Change place of residence, source of income.
  • Celebrate the holiday of the “first tooth”. (The punishment for not following the recommendation may be bad teeth for life).
  • Go out on a quiet mushroom hunt. (Experienced experts say that every four years the mycelium is renewed, which negatively affects the quality of even good mushrooms - they become unsuitable for food. However, on which stump can you read in what years the local mycelium experienced the process of rejuvenation?).
  • Prepare funeral equipment for future use.
  • Travel far from home. If you can’t get out of traveling, you need to cast a special spell. Or simply wish yourself a mental quick and safe return to the same house - if you have a desire to return to it.

You can and should do:

  • Burn the old slippers and put a new pair in their place. It is recommended to burn used house shoes, saying phrases with the wish that all troubles and misfortunes burn in the observed fire.
  • On New Year's Eve, thank the forces of the Cosmos for all the good things that happened in the past year, household members, luck in business.
  • When you hear a dog howling at any distance from you, you need to say: “Go howl, but not to my house.”
  • When planting a garden with seedlings, sowing seeds, say something like: “I plant, but I won’t go into the ground.” (Maybe it’s better not to spend all your free time in the garden and give yourself a break sometimes?).

Why is this year dangerous?

In fact: what you want, expect it.

People who believe in the unfavorable aura of a leap year are preparing to receive from it:

  1. complications in the life of a country and a person in particular (due to political or religious instability, which, as a rule, affects the everyday level of citizens of the state and the world);
  2. problems with the harvest (unpredictable frosts, problems with precipitation, excessive sun activity, migration of crop-damaging insects);
  3. difficulties in concluding partnership agreements, failure to meet deadlines under previously concluded agreements;
  4. health problems, decreased immune strength.

It is dangerous because, succumbing to the influence of superstitions, a person will begin to take a less active position. Because of this, even though he may refuse a good career offer, business project, partnership or marital relationship. And good chances in any field don’t come along very often.

Therefore, only you can choose: build your life with an eye on ancient superstitions, which can exist today in the form of concepts that distort the actual essence, or take an adult approach to solving existing problems.

Considering the growing popularity of all kinds of negative predictions during periods of financial crises, with intensifying political confrontations on the world stage, it can be assumed that next year many of the people around them will fall into a kind of somnambulistic state and will show low social activity.

The following benefits can be derived from this:

Take a closer look at your surroundings: employees, associates and partners who will make fateful decisions, without making allowance for the superstitious restrictions that exist for 2016 - this is the main driving backbone of your business.

Such people do not draw conclusions based on unsupported conclusions, but are guided purely by facts. An exception can only be made for people - if there are such people in your circle - who truly have super abilities and download the necessary information, as they say, “out of thin air.” Although in reality they are most likely just excellent analysts.

When concluding contracts with new partners, first try to find out their ins and outs in their personal lives. If it turns out that a person is superstitious by nature, then:

  1. you can take on the role of a super being and make sure that the desired partner every now and then catches the eye of “signs” indicating great benefits for him when collaborating with you;
  2. Be prepared for the fact that a change in the terms of the agreement may occur unexpectedly, since the representative on the other side will dream or imagine something wrong.

A year is the length of time during which the Earth makes a complete revolution around the Sun. This does not happen in exactly 365 days, but in 365 days and 6 hours.

To prevent it from happening that according to the calendar it is December, but buds are swelling in the forest and snowdrops are appearing, it is customary to add a day to the 28 days of February once every four years. The 29th day of February in the Julian calendar (introduced by Julius Caesar in Rome) is called bissextus ("bissextus", that is, "leap"). Therefore, a year with 366 days is called a leap year. From a scientific point of view, everything is clear, but why are many people afraid of a leap year?

Popularly, the extra day, February 29, is called Kasyanov Day. According to legend, Kasyan was an angel who told the demons about God’s plans. As punishment for this, he was beaten on the forehead for three years, and for the fourth year he was released to Earth, where he did evil.

This legend gave rise to superstitions regarding the leap year. People observed the events that happened every year, drew conclusions, and based on them, signs were born. Let's talk about some of the most common beliefs associated with leap year.

You shouldn't change jobs. But if you still find a really good job, then evaluate your strengths and capabilities before making a decision.

There is a kind of placebo effect: if a person believes in omens and is positive, then they will definitely help him. And then, as Cinderella sang: “At least believe it, at least check it.” It's up to you!

Beliefs about wedding and divorce

Leap year is still considered an unlucky and difficult period for personal life. Wedding signs prohibited from marrying - the union will be short-lived, there will be quarrels and betrayals. One of the spouses may die soon. If you were unable to reschedule the wedding, get married in a church and before the ceremony say:

I am crowned with a crown, not a leap end.

It is undesirable to change your life partner - someone divorced during a leap year will never be able to improve their personal life. It was not possible to avoid a break; you need to take a new towel to the church and leave it there with the words:

Leap year, I pay tribute to you. Family angel, stand next to me.

Relationships that started in "Year of Kasyan", they will not be happy. According to signs, people who started dating at this time will often quarrel and cheat on each other.
