What your zodiac reveals about your health

The ram sign is unsurprisingly all about your noggin.

If you experience pain up there, you might want to check out these home remedies for headaches.

“Aries rules the head and is prone to headaches and migraines,” explains US-based professional astrologer Suzanne Gerber.

“Especially the kind brought on by stress, which can also cause tight jaws or TMJ.”

The best antidote: heart-pumping exercise, ideally with some competition built in. Here’s how to keep the momentum going when it comes to working out.

“Taurus rules the throat, as well as organs and glands associated with that region,” says Gerber.

She suggests that Taurus sun signs are particularly sensitive to weather changes, and should stock up on scarves and sore throat remedies.

If your body feels out of whack, certain foods can help set you back on the right track.

“Gemini is the zodiac sign that rules the shoulders, arms, and hands, as well as the nervous system,” says Gerber.

“The high-energy sign thrives on communication but can develop problems in these areas, as well as colds, as a result of the ‘too much of a good thing’ syndrome.

Those who spend a lot of time on electronic devices are prone to repetitive strain injuries, like carpal tunnel.”

Are electronic devices like the mobile phone a blessing or a curse?

Gerber says, “Cancer is the sensitive water sign that rules the chest, stomach, and breasts, and has to stay on guard for mood swings, depression, and emotional eating.”

She adds that, “Blocked feelings can result in digestive woes, acid reflux (GERD) and weight gain.

“Getting a handle on their emotions is key for Cancers!”

“Leo is the proud monarch of the jungle and needs to be seen and appreciated,” says Gerber.

“Their sign is associated with the back, heart, and blood, and when they’re out of balance, they can develop back problems, high blood pressure, or irregular heartbeats,” explains Gerber.

“Meditation and giving without strings attached are their best medicine!”

“Virgo, the highest-energy earth sign, is associated with the intestines and digestion. They’re fussy eaters, predisposed to food allergies, eating disorders, ulcers and IBS,” shares Gerber.

“Any exercise or practices that slow them down will be salubrious!” Virgo signs can brush up on their these yoga techniques to slow down and process everything, including their food, better.

“Libras are associated with the skin, adrenals, kidneys and bladder—organs that eliminate fluid waste,” says Gerber.

“As epicureans and seekers of balance, they’re susceptible to overdoing things and can suffer from either diarrhea or constipation.”

She stresses the importance of keeping Libra zodiac signs well hydrated to keep things “moving.”

Here are some easy suggestions for foods that are high in fibre and will help you bump up your everyday intake.

According to Suzanne, “Scorpio rules the reproductive and elimination organs. As an intense water sign that can dwell on the dark side of life, their moods can bring on or exacerbate conditions that have to do with menstrual cycles, bathroom issues, hormones, and diabetes.”

Gerber suggests Scorpios with these issues should deal directly and candidly with negative emotions.

To beat the negative blues, did you know saying ‘thank you’ can have positive effects on your health and the well-being of others?

“This zodiac sign is the half-human, half-horse Archer,” relates Gerber.

“This sign rules the hips, thighs, and vision. It’s a rash and expansive sign, and can be accident-prone. They also need to watch over-consumption of alcohol and other things they know aren’t so good for them. Problems with the hips, sciatic nerve, and eyes are notable.”

Sagittarius may be tons of fun, but they’re most likely to have klutz-alert horoscope listings.

Watching alcohol intake is the important factor for many -red wine may protect some from heart disease, but some people shouldn’t drink it at all.

“Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, the planet of structure. As such, it’s associated with the bones, knees, teeth, and joints, making these weak spots,” says Gerber.

“A diet rich in calcium and the vitamins and minerals needed to absorb it is essential. Regular bodywork can help them work out the accumulated tension.”

She suggests exploring the many benefits of massage, as well as making sure you’re getting enough calcium.

Adults need around 1000 mg of calcium a day. Eight dried figs can provide a tenth of that.
