In ancient North American folklore they believed that people took on the attributes of native wild creatures depending on their birth date. Author DEBORAH DURBIN has studied this fascinating system and has compiled this vital guide.
Snow Goose
Dec 22 – Jan 19
Anyone born under the sign of the Snow Goose is independent and a person to whom everyone turns in a crisis. You are quietly confident and set high standards for yourself.
The Snow Goose is goal-orientated and has a natural air of authority. They get on well with the Grizzly Bear and the Beaver.
This summer finds you feeling somewhat nostalgic and you will want to get back to basics. This is an ideal time to focus on the simple things in life and appreciate what you already have rather than what you want.
Famous Snow Geese: Elvis Presley, Mel Gibson, David Bowie
Otter
Jan 20 – Feb 18
Otters are very interesting people. You can be shy, gentle and patient one minute then enthusiastic and lively the next.
Otters are known to be frank and outspoken and often defend the underdog. They get on well with most other signs but especially with the Deer and the Raven.
The summer signals a time when the Otter comes out to play. Forget any troubles or worries you might have had recently for now is the time to have some fun. Plan some days away this summer. You will feel all the better for it.
Famous Otters: Oprah Winfrey, Charles thingyens, Mozart, Paul Newman, Christian Dior
Cougar
Feb 19 – March 20
As one of the most popular signs of the Native American zodiac Cougars possess a gentle nature and adapt to their surroundings quickly.
You are generous, good-natured and kind but can also be rather sensitive at times. However you don’t fare well in controlled environments and will rebel if you are forced to do something you don’t want to do.
The summer is a busy time for Cougars and the busier you are the more content you will be. In the months ahead some challenges are highlighted in your working or home environment but you could soon be in line for a promotion.
Famous Cougars: Drew Barrymore, Elizabeth Taylor, Albert Einstein
Red-Tailed Hawk
March 21 – April 19
Red-Tailed Hawks are often open and enthusiastic but can be outspoken and quick to act. They are ambitious and have a strong desire to lead. People born under this sign work especially well with young people or in a leadership role such as a teacher or mentor.
Despite being the person everyone turns to in times of trouble, this summer you will be busy with your own issues. Be prepared for a few days of things going slightly awry. Double check holiday details and make sure you remember your passport.
Famous Red-Tailed Hawks: Celine Dion, Elton John, Jackie Chan, Hans Christian Andersen, Russell Crowe
Beaver
April 20 – May 20
Beavers are determined people and possess great willpower. You are grounded and roots are very important to you.
The Beaver is also a warm and caring person and a loyal friend. You will get along well with most people but especially the Snow Goose or the Grizzly Bear. Beavers have a natural ability to create a beautiful environment around them.
This summer sees you in your element when it comes to making your home a place of beauty. Whether you are thinking of moving or just redecorating the house this is the perfect time of the year to do it.
Famous Beavers: Tony Blair, Evita Peron, William Shakespeare, Barbra Streisand, Bing Crosby, Queen Elizabeth II
Deer
May 21 – June 20
Deer are intelligent. Making contact is very important to you and you are also versatile, bright, witty and a natural environmentalist. People born under this sign usually have several projects on the go and thrive on chaos. Writing, journalism, broadcasting and acting are good occupations for Deer.
You are naturally gifted at interacting with others and sharing their ideas and can talk to people from all walks of life.
This summer sees you making changes for others. This could be anything from organising a book club to supporting a big campaign. Whatever the cause you will have people hanging on your every word.
Famous Deer: Helena Bonham Carter, Angelina Jolie, Tom Jones, Marilyn Monroe, Clint Eastwood
Flicker bird
June 21 – July 22
The Flicker is naturally intuitive and has a philosophical view of life. If you are born under the sign of the Flicker you will fit into a range of careers. You’d make a good writer or politician and you also do well in careers such as nursing. The Flicker has a fascination with history or antiques and often excels in these areas.
This summer heralds a time for positive changes and is a good time if you are looking for lasting love. All Flickers have an inner beauty that cannot be ignored and this summer you will get noticed by admirers far and wide.
Music is also important to you especially during the summer.
Famous Flickers: Nelson Mandela, Harrison Ford, Julius Caesar, Princess Diana, Sir Richard Branson
Sturgeon
July 23 – Aug 22
The Sturgeon is one of the most positive signs of the zodiac. Outgoing, happy, kind and generous are just some of the words that sum you up. Sturgeon often become big stars of the stage or screen or make good politicians.
Despite being named after a fish, you love nothing more than to bask in the sun and this summer you will be in your element. You are a natural leader and can expect to demonstrate your leadership skills and show everyone just how clever you are.
Famous Sturgeons: Neil Armstrong, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, Beatrix Potter, Henry Ford, Arnold Schwarzenegger
Grizzly Bear
Aug 23 – Sept 22
The Grizzly Bear is one of the most fussy and hygienic signs of the zodiac. All Grizzly Bears are hard workers and are reliable and considerate towards others. The best professions for you are anything that involves caring such as medicine or nursing.
As the year progresses things get better and better for the Grizzly Bear and the summer should see something that was initially just an idea step up a notch to become something more than a pipe dream.
Group efforts are highlighted now so the more people you can get on board the better.
Famous Grizzly Bears: Michael Jackson, Mother Teresa, Richard Gere, Agatha Christie
Raven
Sept 23 – Oct 23
Ravens are highly efficient individuals who like to put ideas into practice. You can be dynamic and seize opportunities when they arise.
Ravens hate conflict and will try to avoid an argument whenever possible. They are usually artistic and once they make friends they keep them for life. As a result ravens tend to have many friends.
This summer sees you learning to control your boredom threshold because there are going to be times when the actions of other people will drive you to the limits. Have patience and you will soon feel at harmony with the Earth’s energy once again.
Famous Ravens: Sharon Osborne, Oscar Wilde, Julie Andrews, John Lennon, Simon Cowell
Snake
Oct 24 – Nov 21
Snakes are passionate individuals who are intense, loyal, intimate and emotional.
Those born under this sign are hard workers who also like to play hard. You are good at organising people and make an excellent trainer or mentor. Many Snakes will find work in the music or acting field.
Copper is one of the elements that is associated with the snake sign and will absorb any negativity that may affect your health and wellbeing.
You could be feeling quite sensitive this season and may well find yourself drawn to all things psychic or spiritual. This summer highlights a time to spend on your own to think about love, life and the universe.
Famous Snakes: Marie Antoinette, Demi Moore, Bill Gates, Prince Charles
Elk
Nov 22 – Dec 21
As an Elk you are generous, giving and caring towards animals. People born under the sign of the Elk pass tests and exams easily and learn quickly. Elks also possess a good sense of humour and like to make people laugh. If you are an Elk you are a natural teacher who thrives on discovery so you would make a great scientist.
This summer will see you investigating something of interest and this may involve travel. If you get a chance to get away take it because this season you will come across something that will change the way you think about things.
Famous Elks: Jane Austen, Winston Churchill, Tina Turner, Walt Disney, Brad Pitt, Jane Fonda
