Born March 07
Many people born today are quite egotistical and extremely self-reliant. Periods of solitude attract them. There is great pleasure in putting up the feet with a book, a long night’s read and the occasional pause for a cup of tea and some rice pudding. (They’re suckers for the tinned sort, chilled and eaten with honey.) Strawberries and yoghurt are perfect for slimmers, in fact many eat plain yoghurt instead of some meals and exist perfectly happily on fruit and vegetables for days. Other, less balanced people have nibbling trouble. Like fish idling in the stream, they would dearly like to nibble all day. A little graze here, maybe a packet of chocolate cream biscuits, a little more grazing there, some fresh bread thickly laced with butter, sliced tomatoes, salt, black pepper and maybe a lettuce leaf, seems not to be really eating. They forget what has passed their lips and sit down to large meals, then wonder why their clothes don’t fit. It’s particularly hard for working March 7 people, who skip lunch to slave at their desk. Eating makes not going out seem less of a sacrifice and that’s when the triple decker sandwiches and doughnuts come in. Nor does this watery sign relish much exercise. Swimming is popular and horse riding; they are exceedingly good. But in a game of tennis they are a menace, lacking the true competitive spirit and skipping about giggling when they miss the ball. Not that they lack competitiveness at work. Theirs is a ferocious intellect, an unequalled capacity for concentration. No shilly-shallying here. If they rise to manager, they can be inspiring to underlings. Also terrifyingly fierce with a cold sting. Partners must share their interests, which include rambling, collecting and frequently trainspotting. So must children, which leads to arguments in teenage years, because these are not young peoples’ interests. March 7 must not push here or the mid-teens become alienated.
Body
The most effective way to use essential oils for skin care is to use them as a periodic treatment either once a week or daily for two weeks at a time during one month. This prevents your skin from growing accustomed to the essences and failing to respond. You can doctor an unperfiimed face cream with the appropriate essence, two or three drops to 50g of face cream. For dry skin use camomile or lavender. Oily skin: cedarwood, lemon, tea tree. Ageing skin: sandalwood, frankincense. Normal skin: neroli, geranium. Puffy skin: cypress, patchouli. Acne: camomile, juniper, rosemary, tea tree.
Mind
The Tarot gives the 8th card in the Major Arcana as Courage. This gives you moral and physical stamina, plus charisma and determination to succeed. With March 8 there is also a strong likelihood of financial luck.
