Nellie Bly

This is a really interesting combination. Your personality blends the stability and groundedness of Taurus with the lightness and intellectual curiosity of the Rat. The result is that you're neither too materialistic nor too much of a dreamer -- you've found a natural middle ground.

You have plenty of humor and charm, and there's always a candid, youthful quality about you. Everything fascinates you -- you take an interest in a huge range of subjects, gathering knowledge mostly through reading and browsing the internet. Once you start talking about something you know, you're practically inexhaustible. You also love hands-on projects, thanks to your impressive manual skill.

In your career, you know how to market yourself effectively, helped along by your sharp sense of timing and real powers of persuasion. You do well in roles that involve connecting people, and you're also suited to careers in commerce and the arts.

Your health is generally strong, though you may be more vulnerable to respiratory issues than most. Avoiding smoking is especially important for your long-term wellbeing.

You're a loyal and devoted friend. In love, though, you tend toward flirtation -- partly because you enjoy the thrill of being liked and partly because you treat romance a bit like a game. The good news is that you generally settle down with age, and mid-life crises don't tend to hit you very hard.
