Get Born On March 23 To Be a Great Olympian Or Sports Person
“I daresay you haven’t had much practice,”
said the Queen …
“Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as
six impossible things before breakfast.”
I’ve never believed those horoscopes that you read in newspapers and magazines – unless they forecast something good! But in saying that I have noticed how some people born under certain sun signs do have similar traits.
What made me think of this again was a small newspaper cutting I clipped recently following the Olympic Games. This is what was said – but I’d better add that this was in a UK paper and therefore biased to us Brits.
“I’m not a great believer in star-signs but wonder what to make of the fact that Roger Banister (the first man to run a four-minute mile), Olympians Steve Redgrave, Chris Hoy and Mo Farrah, as well as British speed record breaker Donald Campbell all share the same Aries birthday of March 23.”
I wondered, therefore, if March 23rd is a good day to be born if you want to be a sports star. So I went to Wikipedia to see some famous births for that date. There are 73 listed births from 1960 onwards and 41 of these are famous worldwide sports people – 56%!
Okay, Wikipedia is far from perfect for many reasons but it’s an impressive statistic. Okay – again – it’s nothing scientific and many will say is therefore meaningless.
But, whatever, when we observe people there does seem to be varying categories. How often have we said that so-and-so looks like someone else. If this is down purely to star signs is debatable but sometimes, even though I have minimum knowledge of the subject, I will pick out someone as a typical Leo, Aries and so on.
In the 70s someone gave me Linda Goodman’s Sun Signs. I still have the book and flitted through the Aries section, applicable to someone born on March 23rd. I read:
“… his Mars horns are hard, and tough to crack … His metal is iron and its unbeatable strength gives him nine times as many lives to live as others; nine times as many chances of winning the battle.”
And those are surely the requirements of an Olympian or top sports person – and, being able to believe in ‘impossible things before breakfast’ of course.
