Why Am I So Obsessed With Vintage Zodiac Charms?

Charmcrazey's Crazy Zodiac Charms
Maybe because there is a specific number of charms in each collection so I know when I've completed a series? Maybe because I'm an accountant and I've become accustomed to structure and order? Maybe because it was such a popular theme for vintage charm manufacturers and there are lots of different types to collect? Maybe because I love the graphics of the astrology symbols? Maybe because there are so many brightly colored enamels? Or....maybe I'm prone to making a collection out of anything I have 2 or more of and it just gets out of hand? Hmmm.......

…. or maybe because we have a special “collector’s brain” ???? LOL !!! (when I post this answer, I’ve not read the article yet !)

I am missing the bubble libra, pisces, and aries charms. Any ideas on where I could find them? looked all over online…
I think on-line is your best bet even though you can’t find them right now. I suggest looking at ebay and Ruby Lane periodically and they will eventually show up.
