Ella's Turning What? Birthday Blog Hop #giveaway #birthdayparty #romance

8/8/2013

Happy Birthday Ella! Birthdays are quite special . Each one of us is born under a zodiac sign. They supposedly tell us a little about ourselves. Do you believe in the zodiac? What does your sign say about you?

Leo
July 23 - August 22

Leo is the fifth sign of the zodiac. These folks are impossible to miss, since they love being center stage. Leos are an ambitious lot, and their strength of purpose allows them to accomplish a great deal. The fact that these folks are also creative makes their endeavors fun for them and everyone else. They are also supremely talented and have a flair for the dramatic. Warmth and enthusiasm seems to seep from every Leo pore, making these folks a pleasure to be around. They do love pleasure!

The element associated with Leo is Fire. Everything about the Lion's personality is hot, hot, hot. Those born under this sign are fearless and strong, which may be why Lions plunge in head first and let the chips fall where they may. The Lion's charms extend to all, even to the children they dearly love.

My birthday is Aug. 14th and I'm a Leo. I've always felt that there are a lot of the statements that fit me very well. However, there's one that doesn't fit me...outgoing and the center of attention. I'm really shy around people, although I can fake it well. Most people don't realize that I'm extremely anxious before going out with friends or heading out to a party.

Do you think your qualities fit with your horoscope? What's your sign? Do you believe in it? Leave a comment below for a chance to win a $100 gift certificate from Ella's Blog hop and an ebook copy of one of my books-your choice. The more times you comment on each blog in the hop, the better your chances for winning the $100 gift card! Here's the list... Best of luck!

I'm a cancer.

I haven't really looked into what cancer is meant to represent - so I don't know if it is true or not.
'Samantha' is meant to mean 'good listener', and I believe that is quite true. So you never know.

Names also have a wonderful significance to who we are. :) The question is does the name fit us or do we fit the name?

My horoscope is about 1/2 right, most of the time, It says that I am out going and energetic, boy did they get that wrong, I am the exact opposite, like you I am very shy, so shy, that as old as I am, I make my daughter or my mom or my sister, handle my business. (pathetic, I know, but I feel more comfortable with my books.)Thanks for sharing Ella's wonderful day and the giveaways. evamillien at gmail dot com

HAPPY ALMOST BIRTHDAY, TO YOU!

Happy Birthday, Ella

I have to admit, I don't follow horoscopes much, but I do know I am a Libra. I do know that my name, Melissa, is Queen Bee. And I am the Queen Bee in my house, especially since I am the only female among my husband, 5 sons, and 2 male dogs.

Isn't that fun that you can see yourself in those things? I love to take the parts I like and run with them!

Michelle Willms link

8/10/2013 04:45:01 am

I'm a Taurus. Most of the descriptive terms regarding the Taurus do fit me; of course nothing will be 100 percent accurate. My biological father was a Leo and nothing about the description you provided fit him - at least not with my mother, sister and I. It seems that to others he projected those traits. He just was never meant to be a husband or a father. Some people aren't. But if anyone was ever broken down on the roadside, my father was always the first to stop and provide help. Thank you for sharing and giving me some keen and much needed insight. michelle_willms@yahoo.com

I do believe, I am a Libra and almost all of how they describe a Libra to be I am for example. I love balance , meaning I am not one that doesn't like to rock the boat so to speak. I like peace. Though my honey may not always agree LOL.

My dad's a Libra, too. I think there is something about the zodiac. Some is so spot on.

I have read about my sign (Sagittarius) and I think I do share some of the qualities it suggests. The zodiac signs have always interested me.

My sister is a Sagittarius. It is interesting that when you are born can tell you so much about yourself.

Happy 40th Birthday to Ella! And early Happy Birthday to you Melissa. I'm a Virgo and I definitely have most of Virgo's traits. I believe you can find traits of a person's Zodiac sign in everyone you meet. You may not know there sign til they tell you but you can see some of them just by talking and observing them. I used to study the Zodiac a long time ago as a teenager. I was fascinated. Since I turned 50, I don't remember a lot of what I learned way back then, but I do remember some of it. LOL

I'm a Taurus and I think my horoscope hits the dot on somethings but not all. I like harmony but I've denied myself a lot of things over the years and I don't think I'm very artistic at all.

Happy Birthday to Ella!!
