The Astrology Thread

[skylee]

Astrology is the pseudo-scientific study of the impact of celestial bodies on the Earth and its inhabitants.

Astrology is one of the most ancient of the surviving magical and occult sciences, with evidence of a highly sophisticated system existing in Babylonian and Egyptian cultures.

Today's astrology primarily concerns itself with the reading of a horoscope chart cast based upon the moment of an individual's birth. In some cases, complex methods of progressing the planets of the birth chart enable the astrologer to predict the future for the person for whom the chart was cast. The chart is interpreted in relation to the influence of the zodiacal signs and the various powers the planets possess in these signs.

LEO REPRESENT *****S! n i must say, yah i do stand straight and dress well. hhahahaha cocky moment there.

lol, actually, Leos tend to be prideful, and think very highly of themselves, according to astrology. But they are also very self-motivated and confident.

If you don't mind letting me know your time and DOB (including the location of which you were born), I can give you a more detailed analysis.

Here's a poem for you

Leo (The Lion)
A Leo comes on with a roar
And when he's through, he'll roar some more.
He does this so we plainly see,
That in his world there's only one boss - he!
He's glad to share your point of view
As long as it is his view too;
But should you cross him have no fear -
The bruises will fade within a year ! ....

wow - tat's nice. anymore for other zodiac signs, especially for libra?

[skylee]

imthatlady, this is your birth chart/overall analysis, based on the information you've given me:

Sunsign: Leo

You are spirited and strong willed and like to be the center of attention. Other people like you because you are basically warm and affectionate. You work very hard to get your way with others. You should be careful of carrying this trait too far, however, because it may turn away people who would otherwise be your friends. You are proud and consider yourself important. The positive side of this is that you are reluctant to compromise yourself. When you are older, you will want to be a person of some importance and, if possible, a leader. Even while you are young you will play this role whenever possible, which should work out very well, because you also want to be worthy of being a leader.

-astro.com

Ascendant: Aquarius
(your "ascendant" sign is basically the way you come across to others)

People with Aquarius ascendants tend to be good/do well in science. Do you like science? Also, they have a tendancy to talk everyone else into agreeing with them, once they are convinced of na opinion.

Sun/Mars in the 7th House:
This just means you're very sociable and can better express yourself when working with a partner, or in groups. However, sometimes you may feel the need to get into arguments with others, instead of getting along, which is something you should avoid.

Many persons with this aspect like to pick fights and get into arguments, as if they can find themselves only through conflicts with others. If you want to get along with people, you will have to learn how to make compromises. You tend to want your own way all the time, which causes disagreements and even fights.

Try not to always see yourself in opposition to others. If you really feel that you have to give up more than you get when you cooperate with another, it would be better to work alone.

It is important to learn these lessons now, because otherwise this placement could indicate a difficult marriage, because you cannot cooperate well enough to create a real partnership.

-astro.com

Good thing you have Mars in Virgo, which means you're willing to adapt to make things work in terms of romantic relationships. So you needn't worry too much about that last statement. ^.^

Now as for the people of whom you are attracted to...

Venus in Virgo:

How I would interpret this is that you're extremely picky, particularly in the areas of love and friendship. You have very high standards when choosing friends and boyfriends.

Mars in Virgo/Sun in Leo:

(the placement of venus, mars, and the sun usually indicate the type of men you are interested in)

The type of man who attracts you is intelligent, well-mannered, well-dressed, practical, and reliable - especially if he's neat and clean.
You may actually check out your new date's fingernails to see if they are clean and manicured. Or you check his shoes.
Appearances are important to you - not so much LOOKS, but LOOKING "proper" - but few are "perfect" enough.
Yet you are at times attracted to a man who is far from perfect, because you think you can "fix" him.

You are also attracted to a man who radiates warmth and shows his affection in a physical way.
You're even more interested if he is rich or famous or powerful or gorgeous... and thus can reflect his glory onto you.
A man who commands respect, and a man who is generous (and can afford to be), will also appeal to you.
You like men who admire and praise you.

A fine face and beautiful body get your attention. You may be particularly attracted to "the boss" or men who are "leaders" in some way.
You can also be drawn to the "creative" type such as actors, artists, musicians, or performers.

Does any of this ring true? Let me know if you want to know more.

Is it me or do Pisces prayer sounds like one from an alcoholic?

lol, I think it's referring to the Piscean tendency toward martyrdom as well as their liking for certain liquids.

Are you a Piscean?

wow - tat's nice. anymore for other zodiac signs, especially for libra?

No, that's the only poem I have, sorry. But if you tell me the time of your birth, the place of your birth and your date of birth I can unearth your DEEPEST, DARKEST DESIRES.

Actually, I can't... but I could analyze your personality and tell you which area of your life will be the most important (education, career, family, religion, etc.). That is, if you're interested.

LMAO. the bolded sounds very true; and the description of the men i'm interested in is also true is there more? ^^

[annaaa]

um! 08/08/89 8.pm on the..hospital bed?!
do not steal my identity..stalkers

oh sheits; my bday is like two days after yours.. except like a year later too. 8/10/90

but yea; go LEOS!

[skylee]

LMAO. the bolded sounds very true; and the description of the men i'm interested in is also true is there more? ^^

I've pm'ed you the link

oh sheits; my bday is like two days after yours.. except like a year later too. 8/10/90

but yea; go LEOS!

Oh, another Leo O.O Would you be interested in knowing more about your birth chart? ^_^

[annaaa]

Oh, another Leo O.O Would you be interested in knowing more about your birth chart? ^_^

haha yay; that'd be cool.
and oh i am those types who check their horoscope everyday too.

[skylee]

Here's your chart, Annaaa

Sun in Leo:
(see the interpretation I posted for imthatlady)

Moon in Aries:

You are very high spirited and quite courageous, although other people may not realize this until they have made you angry. You are quite independent, and you do not care if anyone agrees with you.

When your feelings are aroused, you are impulsive and careless. However, when you settle down, you forget your anger very quickly and don't hold a grudge. As you grow older, you must learn to be more in control of yourself.

-astro.com

Mercury in Virgo:
(hey, you, imthatlady and I all have this placement )

Mercury is the planet of communication, and its placement in your birth chart shows how you communicate with others. You have Mercury in Virgo, which leads me to interpret that you're a very detailed oriented person, well at organizing and planning things on a short-term scale.

Here's a more professional interpretation:

Mercury in Virgo gives an intelligent, strong, versatile and analytical mind with great powers to attend to detail. You have a good memory and the ability to think practically and constructively. Your mental disposition is well-suited to demanding intellectual work and you may find success in fields such as science, teaching, administration or in jobs requiring detailed analytical ability. There is some predisposition to nervous excitement, headaches and needless worry over trivial matters.

http://www.astrologyweekly.com/learn...y-in-virgo.php

Ascendent: Gemini

You are a very active person who likes to get around, meet people and have as many different experiences as possible. You like to communicate with others, and in fact you may have difficulty keeping quiet even when you are supposed to. Sometimes this takes the form of writing ability or a fondness for books, anything that keeps your mind going. You will always look younger than you are and, even more important, you will always be open to new ideas and experiences.

-astro.com

That just means you're a very quirky, talkative person and you like to socialize a lot. You love to ask questions and mingle with others as much as possible to exchange ideas. It also means that you have a tendancy to get side-tracked easily due to your quick mind and curious nature. Do you happen to have an interest in word games or puzzles?

Venus in Cancer:
Venus is the sign of love, and Cancer is representative of the parents. This tells me that you either have a very close relationship with your mom, dad or both, and you count on them for emotional support. It is especially important that you develop a good relationship with your mom, because this will influence the relationships you develop later on in life.

Mars in Taurus:

The type of man who attracts you is strong-willed and "all man", and also sensual and stable - the classic "strong silent type".

Men who are "earthy" and/or "down-to-earth" appeal to you, and it may be important to you that he likes animals or nature or "natural" things.

A man who can cook, cuddle, and care for your comfort interests you. An appreciation for fine food and music may be part of the attraction, and you may be particularly attracted by a fine singing voice or "sexy" speaking voice. The scent of a man is arousing.

http://www.astrologyzine.com/attract-women-taurus.shtml

And since you have Sun in Leo like imthatlady, it means you also like men who praise you and treat you like a princess. "You're even more interested if he is rich or famous or powerful or gorgeous... and thus can reflect his glory onto you." So basically, you're drawn to the guys who exude leadership and are physically affectionate.
