ram - aries
bull - taurus
twins - gemini
crab - cancer
li - leo
verish - virgo
scaley - libra (scales of justice)
scorpions - scorpius
are - sagitarrius (archer)
good - capricornus (goat)
water - aquarius
fish - pisces
This
mnemonic is in the same order, different starting place, and uses two or more initial letters--except for taurus, which is easy to remember by "terrible":
AQUAmarine PIeces ARe Terrible GEMs, CAN LEO VIsit the LIBRAry and SCOpe-out the SAGan CAPtions?
Anyone who wants to insert Ophiuchus can scope-Out the sagan captions.
