Marissa S. is deeply sensual. Her senses of touch, smell and sight are highly refined. And as for her taste? It's impeccable. Marissa is extremely discriminating - when she sees the best, she won't ever settle for anything less. She would rather 'go without' than go for a poor substitute. But then that's Marissa all over. It really isn't fair to call her 'stubborn as a mule.' Mules are adaptable, easy going creatures who are always eager to please - or at least, they are by comparison to Marissa Southards. Unfortunately, for a person with such expensive preferences Marissa is not a millionaire ...or at least, not yet. You never know, it may just happen because Marissas' relationship with money is very interesting. She treats it with a curious mixture of disdain and respect. She never lets it stand in her way, yet she will go out of her way to get it when she needs to. Marissa is a smart cookie and a shrewd operator. It is not though, merely in the field of finance that Marissa Southards displays intuitive wisdom.
Marissa has an affinity with nature. She can make almost any plant flower and bear fruit. This is just as well because Marissa has a hearty appetite. She likes her food as indeed she likes all her creature comforts. Fond though she is of all the above - and of all life's little luxuries - there is one more source of endless fascination that Marissa cannot resist. Marissa doesn't so much have a hearty appetite for sensual pleasure as a ravenous hunger for it! Which is funny really because you wouldn't necessarily think it to look at her. Marissa likes to play it cool. Marissa likes to pretend that nothing bothers her, fazes her or excites her. Like all Taureans though, Marissa Southards is a powerhouse of passion, as those who are lucky enough to know her - or to love her - will breathlessly testify.

Brian S. is one of the wisest, smartest, best looking people on the planet. Or so at least he would like to think. It's not that Brian is vain - more that he is terribly susceptible to flattery. All Leos suffer from this little weakness. That's because, despite what astrologers are always saying about Leos and their confidence, secretly, deep down, they are a little unsure of themselves. This explains Brian's tendency to be strongly outspoken and extrovert one moment and quietly anxious the next.
His close friends know all about his tendency towards self doubt. They know what a warm, genuine and generous character he can be, but they also know about his natural sensitivity. Brian's acquaintances, however, have no such insight. They feel sure that in Brian, they are dealing with a dynamic, energetic and decisive person who is it would be most unwise to cross.
Brian is fiery and feisty - he gives the impression of being someone who knows it all. As a matter of fact, whilst he does not know it 'all', he does know quite a lot of it. Brian is well read, well researched and always well presented. he cuts a dash, he has 'presence.' Heads turn when he enters the room. Brian Southards is aware of the impression he makes but not entirely comfortable with it. He knows that people are responding to his big pretence, not his true personality. That's why he so deeply treasures the company of loved ones who are strong enough to see through his façade and respect him for the mere mortal that he actually is.
