find our soul mate. But how honest are you being with yourself? Is a small
or a huge part of you content being single? Not every sign is delirious1
about being part of a perfectly matched twosome.
我们每天都被杂志和网络上的很多建议我们如何找到灵魂伴侣的信息轰炸，但是，
你对自己有多诚实呢？你是有一点点安于单身现状还是非常满足于单身？不是每一个星
座都着迷于投身到完全和谐的二人世界之中。
Virgo is probably top of the list for self sufficiency2, especially the
female of the species. They can be phenomenally picky about prospective
partners, to a degree where they put off3 commitment for years and years.
But they have to watch that they don’t get too out of touch with their
earthy animal side4 and end up perpetually alone.
处女座很可能是最独立的星座，尤其是这个星座的女性。他们可能会很明显地挑剔
未来伴侣，而且能达到很多年一直不给对方承诺的程度。这个星座的人必须要警惕，他
们不能不顾及自己最基本的生理需求而孤独终老。
Aquarius is next since they are never happy about claustrophobic5
partnerships. Their motto is: “Spread your favors and friendliness around
– the more the merrier。” They’ll only agree to a match if they’re sure
there’s plenty of space to stay independent.
水瓶座位居第二是因为他们从不觉得伴侣关系有什么让人开心之处，对他们来说，
伴侣关系能导致幽闭恐怖症。他们的座右铭是：“四处撒播你的友爱，愈广泛愈快乐。
”他们只有在确定一段关系中自己有大量的独立空间的时候，才赞成结合。
Capricorn can be a touch like Virgo, defensive, workaholic and not
inclined to disappear into swoons of rapture about a blissful mating. That
is until they fall rapidly and inexplicably6 into a romance that astonishes
them – and everyone around them!
摩羯座也许和处女座有得一拼—戒备心强，是个工作狂，而且不那么容易沉迷于幸
福婚姻如痴如醉的喜悦之中，直到他们毫无缘由地快速地陷入爱河—这段感情不仅会让
他们自己很惊讶，也会让他们身边的人震惊！
Pisces? Well they adore the thought of a soul mate, the search, the
seduction, the whole dream factory. But when push comes to shove7, they are
never sure that what is being offered matches up to their “perfect” inner
vision. That said, Pisces needs a practical helping hand through life, so
will often settle for their second best just to get along.
双鱼座？呃，他们喜爱灵魂伴侣这种想法—寻找、引诱以及整个的梦幻过程。但是
每当到了作出决定的时候，他们就不确定“倒贴上来的”人是否达到了他们“完美”的
内心伴侣的标准。也就是说，双鱼座一生都需要一个理性的推手，他们也常常会和第二
理想的人安定下来。
Aries, Sagittarius, Gemini are the adventurous signs and do like a good
mate to keep them company along the way. Given their propensity8 for having
a low boredom threshold, they can “chop and change9” their mates several
times in their lifetime – especially the male of the species.
白羊座、射手座和双子座是富有冒险精神的星座，他们的确喜欢一个好的伴侣来陪
他们一起经历。鉴于他们很容易喜新厌旧的本性，他们的一生可能会出现几次“朝三暮
四”的情况—尤其是这些星座的男性。
Cancer, Taurus and Leo are the security-conscious and home-focused signs
. They don’t so much want a soul mate as a someone to help set up house,
produce a family and give stability. For Leo this also includes status and
an admiring audience.
巨蟹座、金牛座和狮子座是注重安全感、家庭观念重的星座。与灵魂伴侣相比，他
们更想要一个能帮他们建立家庭、繁衍后代并对他们死心塌地的人。对狮子座来说，对
方还要有地位并钦佩自己。
The two most likely to desperately need another half are Libra and
Scorpio, though for not the same reasons. Libra is known as “the
relationship sign”， not because it’s driven by matters of the heart. It’
s an Air sign10, fairly detached, and never feels comfortable without
another half to make it feel whole. Scorpio on the other hand is intensely
emotional and really needs an equally passionate partner to merge with.
Therein lies their bliss.
两个极度需要另一半的星座是天秤座和天蝎座，不过他们的缘由不尽相同。天秤座
是有名的“伴侣星座”，但这不是因为他们对另一半的需求源于内心，而是因为它是风
象星座，他们超凡脱俗，而且如果没有另一半让他们觉得完整的话，他们始终感觉不自
在。而天蝎座是一个情感强烈的星座，他们真的需要对等的激情才能达到水乳交融—这
才是他们幸福的根本。
1. delirious a. 极度兴奋的，狂喜的。
2. self sufficiency: The state of not requiring any outside aid, support
, or interaction, for survival。通常译为自给自足，文中指个性独立。
3. put off: 推迟，延期。
4. animal side: 兽性主要指为了满足食欲、色欲等需求的本能。
5. claustrophobic a. 患幽闭恐怖症的，导致幽闭恐怖症的。
6. inexplicably a. 无法说明地，难以理解地。
7. If you say that something can be done when/if push comes to shove,
you mean that it can be done if the situation becomes so bad that you have
to do it。
8. propensity n. (性格上的)倾向，习性。
9. chop and change: to keep changing what you do or what you plan to do,
often in a way that is confusing and annoying for other people. 变化无常，
朝三暮四，没有定见。
10. 古代西方哲学家认为构成自然界并衍生万物的物质是水、火、土、风四大元素
。地球依着黄道运行其实就是四大元素的流转变化，因此黄道12星座也可分为水象星座
(巨蟹座、天蝎座、双鱼座)、火象星座(白羊座、狮子座、射手座)、土象星座(摩羯座
、金牛座、处女座)、风象星座(天秤座、水瓶座、双子座)。水象星座象征春天，重情
感；火象星座象征夏天，重行为；土象星座象征秋天，代表务实、稳重；风象星座象征
冬天，重智慧与沟通。 | P*******i
