Chines zodiac is a twelve-year cycle, each year in that cycle related to an animal sign. These signs are the rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, ox, rat, rooster, dog, tiger, and pig. It is determined by the lunar year in which you were born. “The Chinese believe the animal ruling one’s birth years has a profound influence on personality, and destiny” (Chines zodiac). In this novel mother believes in astrology and sometimes she blames their daughter because they were born in zodiac cycle. For example, “She believes in astrology, blaming or praising May and me for one thing or another because we were born in the year of the sheep and the year of the dragon, respectively” (5). One of the sisters Pearl was born in the year of the sheep, which mean she is tender, polite, filial, clever and kind- hearted and
The zodiac calendar is an astrological theory that divides the path that the sun seems to follow around the earth into twelve equal sections, each of which are associated with a sign, a symbol and a personality type. John Gardner embraces this astrological theme in his parallel novel, Grendel, by connecting each of the twelve chapters to its coinciding zodiac.
A symbol is a mark, sign, or word that indicates, signifies, or is understood as representing an idea, object, or relationship. Symbols allow people to go beyond what is known or seen by creating linkages between otherwise very different concepts and experiences. All communication is achieved through the use of symbols. Symbols take the form of words, sounds, gestures, ideas or visual images and are used to convey other ideas and beliefs. A symbol is an energy evoking, and directing, agent. Symbolism that is something that stands for another, it can be place, object, or a person. Human cultures use symbols to express specific ideologies and social structures and to represent
I have chosen to write about the constellation Cancer (The Crab). I chose Cancer because it is one of only a handful of constellations that I am actually able to identify in the night sky. Cancer is one of the twelve Zodiac constellations; people whose birthdays fall between June 21st and July 22nd have Cancer as their sign. Cancer is the Latin word for crab, and despite the fact that the constellation looks more like a lobster then a crab, it is still referred to as a crab. The constellation is visible from the northern hemisphere from late winter to early spring.

The three concepts, the sign, signifier and signified are profound concepts according to Hall. A sign is a basic concept of meaning, its anything that asserts meaning and it could be an object or abstract. We are free to perceive and interpret signs that represent what we are accustomed to so meaning can be conveyed. (Hall; 1997;5) “Signs stand for or represent our concepts, ideas and feelings…” Here we begin to understand how Hall stresses on the significance of signs as a form of communication. People who share culture or carry the same conceptual maps are likely to fall into the same discourses and can both use certain signs to evaluate the world’s problems similarly as opposed to an individual who would interpret the sign differently because of a different background. As time progresses, people become more socially, politically and historically aware and interpretation of certain signs may progress into another
“Saussure defined a sign as being composed of a signifier and a signified. The sign is the whole that results from association of the signifier with the signified. The relationship between the signified and signifier is signification. The signifier is now commonly interpreted as the material or physical form of the sign, it is something which can be seen, heard, touched, smelt or tasted. Both the signifier and the signified were purely psychological.” (Saussure,
It was not up until 200 years ago that people started identifying their zodiac sign with the position of the Sun. So when a person is asked what is his or sign, the Sun was passing through on the day that person was born. This can be demonstrated on a birth chart. Our birth charts are special "sky maps" which reflect the quality of the exact moment we drew our first breath. With that first breath, we each began our own incredible hero's journey through life on planet Earth. The birth positions of the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto all play their own unique symbolic roles as messengers and ambassadors of the universe.
Based on Saussure’s notion, signifier is the sign carries the meaning, including the marks on the paper and the sound in the air. Signified is a mental concept of meaning, which the person who has the same cultural background can share the same language. The sign is embraced both of them, which make the sign, have the wider use.
There are many types of diverse people classified under various categories. Some people have different types of personalities. They could be classified as extremely manipulative, others as impulsive, and some may not show anything on the outside and have wonderful social skills. These categories help in the understanding of humans. This study is called Psychology and there are many different subfields in this diverse study of the people around us. One subfield that is particularly interesting is personality psychology. Personality psychology is a branch of psychology that studies personality and its variation between individuals.
In the day to day life, experiences and connections are made. Many things that occur in one’s life can all stem from their individual personality, but interpreting how one’s personality guides their life presents a difficult challenge. Many actions, quirks, and patterns that a person has are easily noted due to the ability to see it, but the puppeteer behind these habits is an individual’s personality. A certain personality type can affect the perception of certain events and the reactions/feelings to certain outcomes. While one person might see a situation as dreadful, another may see it entirely different. We tend to find ourselves side by side with people we see similarities between due to a parallel in certain traits, but no two individuals are exactly the same based on differences in personality. Success is hinged on many things and one of those things is the development of self-awareness. To know oneself is key to tackling on intimidating tasks and situations, but to also grow in terms of knowledge and synergy. In my attempt to
Personality takes many shapes and forms and is affected by many factors. My understanding of personality is simply a genetic and environmentally determined set of psychological traits that influence our reactions in the world around us. Genetic because our parents possess a certain set of psychological personality traits that we tend to have in common with them so therefore in my opinion there are heritable personality traits. Personality is environmental because we each have our own separate experiences in the world and these experiences help form our unique personality. Neo-Freudians such as Jung have given us a wide array of ideas of how they believe personality is developed and formatted. Jung in particular has a very interesting
