Chinese astrologers refer to the Moon's Nodes as the Dragon's Head and Tail and give it tremendous attention as to the placement in the natal chart.

This article give you the knowledge to understand the Dragon in your personal horoscope.

At first Mussolini was supported by the Liberals in parliament. With their help, he introduced strict censorship and altered the methods of election so that in 1925–1926 he was able to assume dictatorial powers and dissolve all other political parties.

The simplest depict a man's face peering out of dense foliage. Some may have leaves for hair, perhaps with a leafy beard.
