For some light relief for sun sign afficiandos. A medical study from Spain has added to information from a 2015 US University similar exercise to come up with health correlations to month of birth. Sadly not divided into early and late month, since signs change for the final week/ten days.
Men who were born in September (Virgo/Libra), for example, were almost three times more likely to suffer thyroid problems than those born in January (Capricorn/Aquarius). August male babies (Leo/Virgo) had almost double the risk of asthma compared to those born at the beginning of the year.
Similarly, women born in July (Cancer/Leo) were 27 per cent more likely to be diagnosed with high blood pressure and were at a 40 per cent increased risk of incontinence. Men born in June (Gemini/Cancer) were 34 per cent less likely to suffer depression and 22 per cent less likely to be diagnosed with lower back pain.
Women born in June (Gemini/Cancer) had a 33 per cent lower risk of migraines and a 35 per cent less chance of experiencing menopause problems.
On the whole, September babies (Virgo/Libra) appeared to have the least chance of being diagnosed with any chronic disease.
My husband is an early August Leo and yes, he’s quite asthmatic. Was there anything on pisces women? My chronic health issues are stomach/digestion problems, and in recent years in middle age some knee/hip foot arthritis and tendon injuries.
Marjorie and Jo thank you very much for some light relief !
Very interesting, Marjorie 🙂 I like things like this. If I were a Cancerian/Leo woman, I think my blood pressure would be high knowing I was regularly wetting myself!
I’m September born. Never had anything chronically wrong (now in my early 40’s), touch wood, but have been chronically tired for decades/suffer migraines. Think it’s tied to my diet but can’t figure it out (quite Virgoan?). Been to the doctors and nothing’s been diagnosed, frustratingly, but I’ve had transit Neptune going through my 6th H, for lord knows how long, so could be that. Looks like it will be moving out of that house soon into my 7th in which I’ve decades to look forward to potential partners who are full of attractive qualities such as deceit, vagueness, and floaters, who all need to be saved. Artsy and spiritual, would be the good side. Oh, the delights of astrology! 😀
Well, its a small step for Mankind, Marjorie….in the West anyway as in Asia proper horoscopes are used and people treatd as individuals.
