If we're looking to signs then I'd wager more of a virgo/libra cuspish thing. Virgos *can* get ocd which may extend to health, and Libras tend to wrap themselves up in their own notions and roll pretty hard with them. Honestly I think it has little to do with signs.



I tend to agree with this too. But, I know of two Caps that seemingly are willing themselves into illness. But, Thanks for the clarifications.

Im cappy and in wheelchair. I think some cappy push careerwise and drive themselves into the ground maybe I dunno. Im not one for talking about health problems or asking for sympathy. I dont dwell on it..perhaps my lack of interest in it is not helping me get out of the situation

Where I live theyre all vegetarians on health fads but I call them hypochondriacs and say they dwell too much on health..and ive made a conscious decision to not do this because I think its giving the human ailments more power to focus on them and think about them all the time.

I don't think we tend to be hypochondriacs. I'm with Michelle in that we do push hard, which may lead to poor health - thus any ailments are actually real. Like AeGi, doctors are an option unless absolutely necessary. People tell me to go to the doctor and I'm like pfft, why waste my time so they can tell me what I already know? (my Cap daughter is like this too). Besides, I've been known to irritate doctors, and even make them down right mad and not want to treat me (it was only a hypothesis, and I brought in all sorts of research articles which suggested I may be on to something, it didn't go over so well).

@M, you might be on to something regarding Libra's, my Libra son thinks he has all kinds of issues - he doesn't appreciate it when I tell him it is all in his head *shrugs* Earlier this year I did finally bring him to the doctor as he was going on about it and he'll have no insurance after this year as he'll be turning 18. All tests (blood work, urinalysis, stool samples and even a chest x-ray) came back negative for all of these chronic problems he says he has. So, now he's arguing that maybe it's neurological and I should bring him to a neurologist.

Not so much Virgos though in my experience, they're too scared of getting something to actually have something (God forbid that drop of rain falls in the coffee... could lead to cancer *rolls eyes*).

perhaps capricorn has a whining/moaning/complaining streak..I am a big whiner 😛 so its not specifically about the body but the body is mentioned a lot cos people who whine tend to speak more openly and when most people dont say they are aching etc cappys do? As a cappy Im also very open..I let it all hang out so I dont hide whats going on with me. So other starsigns may not say everything that is happening to them..this may be another reason

modern living has brought it so people have low vitality but cant pinpoint why..........how many animals do yuo see eating masses of oil.....raw cane sugar....caffeine.and huge amounts of carbohydrates........barely any.

The natural foods are mainly meat or mainly vegetation and seeds........we can eat what we like but if we are far from what nature intendend when it evolved our bodies then we will have low vitality...even in the last 50 years eating has changed dramatically which is why the old look at the young puzzled why they cant do basic hard work like they did in the 'good old days' 😛

he parked way up the lot we were walking to the front of the store
A car pulls parks in what is called a handcap park place

Actually when I am sick, I don't even want people to know and be like "AW" and all that crap, although I do appreciate, I just don't like it. But our health care system is so screwed up, I can't really call someone a hypochondriac. There are a number of chronic conditions and condition where only the symptoms are addressed and not the cause. I had my share of seeing doctor and I can with certainty say if it is easy, they might catch and treat it, but if it need more experience and it's not easy to see, they will make you psychotic instead of saying I don't know. There are a LOT of those doctors that would rather prescibe depression medicine instead of finding a stomach ulcer unless you threw up blood. There are a lot of genuinly sick people who are mistreated and called fakers at the same time. It's not fair, but it happens a lot thanks to big pharma and the corrupt system. Just saying.

I've been called one, more then once, lol. I don't know I have always had some kind of pain or ailment, sigh. I try to ignore it but for me I live in reality while others usually just drug up and ignore it. Got a headache, here's 10 pain pills, have at it. Not for me, I'd rather suffer and complain, lol. I analysis everything, hard not to analysis myself. I know when I don't feel well. People have no sympathy, lol. Damn, my back is killing me right now. I did something to my sciatic and half of my leg is numb. Just saying......Violins anyone? 🙂

then you look how people whine a lot more. Look at newspapers. They are no longer informative just bitching and whining. Its true in general peoples vitality isnt at its best but we are becoming so low in stamina the slighest problem and we make a mountain out of it. Earth element is surely the solution..come back to planet earth and see the truth see reality and snap out of it 😛
