No they don't... the is a myth.
Science and Math shows us those traits are equally distributed in all the
signs.
The false pattern is called apophenia. It is an artifact of way the human
mind works. There is no traits which are unique to any astrological sign
or
combination of planetary aspects.
Even Edmond Wollmann, a professional astrologer, says "a chart is no more
than a prop." Now I hate to use that s*** as an authority but hell you
take
your proof where ever you can find it.
