“Are the typical characteristics of a sun sign affected by whether the person is male or female?”
As Dr. John
Gray so aptly explained, “Men are from Mars; women are from Venus.” Thus, variations should be allowed within
each sun sign, beyond the general aspects attributed to each. The following list offers a primary key word, the symbol of
the sign, the characteristics of which should always be taken into consideration, and some descriptive personality words for
each gender.
