(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

ARIES (Mar1. 21- April 20)
Rams have a habit of pushing to the front of the line, both literally2 and figuratively. And while this quality has helped Aries get ahead, it can also compromise their relationships. Putting an animal, child or plant in their care can correct the problem. As soon as this sign's nurturing3 qualities are cultivated, their selfishness will diminish.
白羊:羊儿做什么事都急于求成。虽然它有助于白羊座获得成功,但也容易影响与他人的关系。多与动物、孩子和植物为伴不失为改掉这一坏毛病的好办法。一旦你变得更有爱心,自私自利的坏毛病就可以彻底消除了。

TAURUS (Apr. 21 - May 21)
Bulls love clutter4. Being surrounded by all their possessions gives them a sense of security. It also creates headaches, confusion, and chaos5. Storage systems that keep their stuff on display will prevent this sign from strewing6 their stuff all over the house. Stacking baskets, glass jars, and open shelving can promote organization.
金牛:牛儿偏爱混乱。虽然身边堆满的东西能给你充实和安全的感觉,但它也会显得杂乱无章。制订一套有规律的贮藏方法可以帮助你纠正这个坏习惯。屋子里多放些整理柜、玻璃缸和书架都是不错的办法哦。

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21)
While bountifully blessed with the gift of gab7, Gemini are notoriously bad listeners. A good way to become more attentive8 is to practice staying silent.  Eventually, however, even the biggest blabbermouth will learn how to button their lips and open their ears.
双子:多嘴多舌的双子座是最差的听众。要想引起更多的关注还是应该适时地保持沉默。总体来说,你这个最有名的长舌人应该学会在什么时候闭嘴什么时候竖起耳朵。

CANCER (June 22 - July 22)
If you've ever wondered how Cancers stay so sweet, take a look at their sugar intake9. This sign loves cookies, candy, and ice cream. An occasional indulgence is fine, but too much dessert can take a toll10 on waist lines and energy levels. What Crabs11 are really seeking is oral gratification. Sugar-free gum or dried fruit provides a healthy distraction12 from candy crunching13.
巨蟹:要是你对蟹子为什么能一直如此甜美感到疑惑的话,看看他们的饮食习惯就知道了。巨蟹座的人非常钟爱饼干、糖果和冰淇淋。偶尔放纵一下当然没关系,不过摄入过量的甜点很容易让蟹子的腰围变粗哦。蟹子真正需要的是口头的赞美。无糖口香糖和干果可以让蟹子远离含糖食物。

LEO (July 23 - Aug. 22)
The guy who's sitting next to you in the elegant restaurant, shouting to his personal assistant on his cell phone? Probably a Leo. It's only natural that a sign that is blessed with creativity, charm and wit feels tempted14 to show off. Actually, this desire to brag15 is rooted in insecurity. The sooner Lions learn to compliment others, the quicker they'll receive the praise they crave16.
狮子:坐在你旁边,在一个极其高雅的餐厅就餐的人为什么会在电话里对他的助手大喊大叫呢?这家伙八成就是狮子座的。这个星座的人有着非凡的创造力、聪明且极具吸引力,当然他们往往也爱炫耀。实际上,这种坏毛的根源在于没有安全感。狮子座的人若能越快学会称赞他人,他们也就越快地得到别人发自内心的赞美。

VIRGO (Aug. 23 - Sept. 23)
These nit-pickers sometimes compromise their own pleasure for the sake of perfection. Deep down inside, these folks are really sensualists at heart. They need to learn that it is better to feel good than to look good. Allocating17 a few minutes each day for fun but messy activities like baking, painting, or sculpting18 can cure Virgos of their fear of filth19.
处女:挑剔的处女座有时为了寻求完美会牺牲自己的快乐。他们是真正感性的人。他们必须要明白的是感觉上好的东西比看上去好的东西真实。每天当然应当安排些时间娱乐,但干些像烤东西、刷墙壁之类的杂活对治愈你的洁癖也是大有好处的哦。

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23)
Libras gave birth to the term "shopaholic". These folks have every credit card known to man. And while their taste is undeniably impeccable, it can get them in trouble at bankruptcy20 court. What's really at stake here is a quest for beauty. Enjoying simple but inexpensive pleasures like nature walks and museums can quell21 the urge to splurge.
天秤:秤子是天生的购物狂。尽管你们的品味无可挑剔,不过大肆血拼只会让你们面临破产的危险。追求美无可厚非,不过也要注意分寸哦。其实简单的散步和不会花费太多的参观博物馆带来的愉悦就是治愈你这种坏毛病的良方。

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22)
Nobody carries a grudge22 better than this sign. Unfortunately, hanging on to resentments23 has a way of crowding out love, happiness, and trust. In order for Scorpios to let go of anger, they must first practice self-care. Getting a massage24 every month or writing in a journal each day will soften25 this sign's heart and enable forgiveness.
天蝎:没有哪个星座比蝎子更容易产生怨恨情绪了。一旦你抓住这种情绪不放,将很难获得爱情、幸福和信任。天蝎座如果想远离怨恨,必须学会自我调理。每个月做一次按摩或每天记录一下心情都有助于你打开心结,学会忍让和宽容。

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21)
Archers26 have a bad habit of telling the truth. And while these folks have the best intentions, that doesn't take the sting out of comments like, "Gee27, those pants make you look fat!" The best way for Archers to cultivate tact28 is through prodigious29 study. Etiquette30 books will definitely help!
射手:心直口快、实话实说是射手座最大的毛病。虽然你们的本意是好的,然而方式很难让人接受。比如,“穿上这条裤子让你看上去真肥!“类似这样的话经常出自你口。改掉这个毛病的最好办法就是要为不断地学习。社交礼仪方面的书籍应该是最有效的。

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20)
This sign is the original workaholic. Many Capricorns fear that poverty will set in the moment they stop toiling31. Keeping a gratitude32 journal can break this terrible habit. The more Capricorn becomes aware of their non-material blessings33, the healthier their behavior will become. No more cutting vacations short for the sake of work!
摩羯:摩羯座是天生的工作狂。很多摩羯人害怕一旦停止工作就会遭遇贫困。实际上,你应该保持一颗感恩的心,这样才能改掉这个可怕的习惯。你越多地体验到非物质生活带来的财富,就越能更健康地生活。千万别为了工作取消原定的度假。

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19) 
Water-bearers get into the habit of creating completely self-sufficient lives. Unfortunately, this makes it difficult for them to achieve intimacy34. Basically, Aquarians are afraid that relationships will compromise their independence. Fortunately, these folks love to experiment. By treating intimacy as an exercise, this sign can relinquish35 control for the sake of loving relationships.
水瓶:瓶子一直都对自己的感情生活过于自信。不幸的是,你们很难达到真正的亲密无间。基本上,水瓶座的人担心太过亲密的关系会让自己失去独立性。幸运的是,你们喜欢尝试。经过多次尝次,你们最终会为了爱情摒弃自己的坏习惯。

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20)
As a water sign, it's only natural that Pisces finds comfort in liquids. When those liquids have a high alcohol content, problems can ensue. Naturally, a twelve-step program can be of enormous benefit here. Meditation36 and yoga can help, too, as they allow Pisces to achieve a healthy sense of nirvana. That's all these Fish are really seeking.
双鱼:既然是水相星座,鱼儿的生活自然是和水分不开了。酗酒成性的双鱼座就容易出问题了。要想戒掉这个坏习惯,多练习瑜珈和保持平静的心态是非常有效的方法,因为他们让鱼儿可以在一个梦幻的天堂中自由遨游。那不正是鱼儿憧憬的吗?
