astrology
 
what are your opinions/thoughts/etc?
i used to deny the validity of it but i read up, did my natal chart and things like that... and a lot of things are scarily accurate.

!@#$%! 02.23.2008 03:13 AM

i am mighty & awesome as predicted by my father's astrologers.



i wonder why he had them decapitated soon after my birth.

Cantankerous 02.23.2008 03:17 AM

Rising Sign is in 13 Degrees Scorpio
You tend to be quiet, reserved, secretive and, at times, quite difficult to understand. Others notice your deep emotions and feelings and wonder how to draw you out. Stubborn and tough, you fight for any position you believe in. You are very resourceful and formidable when you become angered or upset about something. You enjoy living life at the cutting edge -- for you life must be experienced intensely and totally. Quite courageous, you are willing to take calculated risks. Easily hurt by others, you often strike back with bitter sarcasm. Sensitive and curious, you are concerned with the deeper mysteries of human psychology. Once you have become interested in any subject, you pursue it with total fanaticism.

Sun is in 03 Degrees Pisces.
Extremely sensitive and emotional, you absorb the emotions of others (whether positive or negative) like a sponge. Emotionally vulnerable, you are easily upset and tend to cry readily. You are at your best when you can structure your environment in such a way that you are surrounded by positive, upbeat people. You are very helpful and understanding of the needs of others. Indeed, at times this can be a disadvantage, because you can be a sucker for anyone who needs help. Shy, dreamy, romantic in nature, you delight in retreating into your private fantasy world. Just be careful that you do not get lost in it! Trust your intuitions -- you may be quite psychic.



ill spare you all the other planets but this is dead on

if you stayed to discuss i'd debunk but i won't argue with my own echo. next time.

Cantankerous 02.23.2008 03:28 AM

okay then
debunk me son!

!@#$%! 02.23.2008 03:32 AM

no no.

im tired too.

go sleep wake up early & take photos.

just tell me who is not formidable when upset about something?

ayway im a sun in scorpio & rising sagitarius, and yes it "amazingly' matches but when you dig a little deeper the vagueness of things is what allows the trick.

my 2 best friend in elementary were scorpios too and we were totally totally different. of course astrology's response is that the ascendant and the 12 houses and so forth... an incomprehensible mess that allows for everything and anything.

i'd suspect maybe the seasons have more to do with it maybe? but i don't know cos i was born in the southern hemisphere. so how does it apply?

damn i meant to write less not start something.

Cantankerous 02.23.2008 03:36 AM

yes it is vague but certainly applicable. i knew you were going to say that because everyone says that. i don't care and so forth.
i'm a greaseball and tired and so on, let me alone so i can eat my little debbie cakes and watch 2001: a space odyssey and float off into a blissful slumber.

!@#$%! 02.23.2008 03:38 AM

"You are at your best when you can structure your environment in such a way that you are surrounded by positive, upbeat people."

hm yeah tell me who is at their best in a pit of negativity and psychosis, ha ha ha.

ok im not mocking you, just, that statement is so broad it applies to anyone, you see?

--

ps-we best leave this for another day. im going to go brush my teeth so i never ever need veneers.

Alex's Trip 02.23.2008 03:46 AM

Mmm basically mine was just really vague and covered all their bases.

pbradley 02.23.2008 03:55 AM

As a Virgo, I'm suppose to over think things and be a major organization freak.

While the former may apply, the latter is straight up wrong.

alteredcourse 02.23.2008 04:06 AM

you definately see the qualities you want to

racehorse 02.23.2008 07:46 AM

i think that an environment which we live in which is as incomprehensibly massive as space is could not fail to have an effect on us and affect our character, freewill, chemical balances (i.e. emotions), and bodily rhythms. just think of the gravitational power of these objects. it is a fact that the gravitational power of the moon plays a part in controlling menstrual cycles, as well as controlling the tides. we are 70% water!
i'm not saying that astrology has all the answers, and there's a hell of a lot of bullshit and commercial trickery, but at least it is looking in the right direction. physics needs to become metaphysics whether you like it or not, and in fact it has been since the discovery of wave/particle duality, or even relativity.

what you say is relevant and interesting. isn't that just the same with science? it's widely known that when you undertake a scientific experiment the results you come out with are quite likely going to be the results you hoped you would come out with.
anyway, didn't wave/particle duality and general relativity put an end to the existence of objective, purely empirical scientific facts? i think we have to start looking into astrology as a science - seperate the money-making bullshit from the genuine insights.

Savage Clone 02.23.2008 11:34 AM

Leos aren't supposed to get romantically involved with other Leos, but it's worked out pretty well for me so far. It's only been 20 years though, so I guess it's too soon to tell really.

uhler 02.23.2008 02:12 PM

i'm an aries, but i act more like a pisces. i consider myself a borderline pisces, since my bday is close to a pisces anyway. sometimes my daily reading are on spot or kind of and sometimes they are way off.

i used to think it was garbage, but now i'm getting more interested in it.

Toilet & Bowels 02.23.2008 03:40 PM

while i don't align myself with astrology i've seen enough to convince me that it's not all bullshit

PAULYBEE2656 02.23.2008 04:36 PM

I Find It A Very Interesting Line Of Study, Something Has To Be In It Or Else It Wouldnt Affect So Many People. Its A Belief To A Certain Extent. Personally I Dont Read My Stars But I Certainly Dont Dismiss It As Bullplop.

Cantankerous 02.23.2008 07:49 PM

the shit they put in fashion magazines is absolutely ludicrous. i'm not talking about that, however a lot of people haven't educated themselves enough to know the difference.

floatingslowly 02.23.2008 07:59 PM

I'm a pisces, but my moon is in neon.

mostly, I like cancer girls.

and by mostly, I mean, that's it.

Cantankerous 02.23.2008 09:41 PM

i get on very well with virgo, scorpio, and capricorn. i'm supposed to get on well with cancer and taurus although i don't. i find cancers to be irritatingly clingy.

flophousefloozie 02.23.2008 10:18 PM

I'm capricorn, and most people who I appreciate and keep close to me are taurus, as predicted.

pantophobia 02.23.2008 11:06 PM

cancer and an aquarius rising

after looking over a few things, i am best around water and earth signs like capricorns, scorpios, taurus, and virgos

Toilet & Bowels 02.24.2008 06:36 AM

i'm libra with scorpio rising

racehorse 02.24.2008 07:09 AM

pisces with moon in virgo and virgo rising.
apparently i have an internal dichotomy between carefree and fastidious attitudes. why not?

Cantankerous 08.09.2008 01:16 AM

okay i feel like talking about this more because i'm feeling all mystical and junk

scorpio is not my native sign, but my rising sign, and it completely dominates almost every aspect of my personality right down to even how i look, physically.

"Here, the forehead and eyebrows are usually quite heavy and there may be a hint of the sardonic in the expression. In general, the hair of Scorpio persons is dark, thick and somewhat coarse, tending to curls or a at least a degree of waviness."

"The most notable facial feature of Scorpio is the piercing and often reptilian-like eyes, which can become transfixed...devoid of any emotion or weakness...and seeming to penetrate the very soul. Because of this, many people find themselves more than a little uncomfortable beneath the hypnotic gaze of a Scorpio native...and for good reason. The eyes of Scorpio individuals, more likely than not, are appraising the personality and disovering the best-kept secrets of the focus of their attention, without the chosen subject uttering a single word. In addition, the eyes...usually very magnetic, dark and round...often possess a brilliant shine."

"The nose is frequently perceived to be Roman, but may be either aquiline or concave, tending to fullness at the tip. The teeth may be short and could be spaced rather far apart."

terriblecanyons 08.09.2008 01:18 AM

Whoa, my friend is a Scorpio and that describes her fairly well. Also, where are you getting this information - do you have a link?

On another note, I'm not really into astrology anymore, and more into the whole biorhythm idea. http://www.facade.com/biorhythm/

MellySingsDoom 08.09.2008 01:21 AM

Here's a bit of my horoscope chart (for Gemini):

Rising Sign is in 13 Degrees Virgo
You tend to be very shy and not very self-assertive. You are supercritical about how you appear to others. Even though you may think you are uninteresting and dull, you are actually quite soft- spoken, orderly, neat and very likable. You are a perfectionist with high standards, and at times you can be quite tactless in pointing out the faults of others. Very practical, efficient and purposeful, your appearance and bearing reflect your need to appear graceful, sensible and reserved. You have a crisp, no-nonsense approach to dealing with others. Never lazy or self-indulgent, you tend to be dedicated to the work ethic

they don't have all twelve signs for some reason but the info is available elsewhere too.


melly, that describes you perfectly.

MellySingsDoom 08.09.2008 01:25 AM

Cantanky - yes indeed, espesh with tactlessness :D ;)

Cantankerous 08.09.2008 01:29 AM

the eye thing with scorpio is one of the most accurate things i've ever read -- look

 

MellySingsDoom 08.09.2008 01:31 AM

Hello, lovely eyes :)

Cantankerous 08.09.2008 01:33 AM

:p

i can shoot ice from them. i wouldn't fuck with that stare.

MellySingsDoom 08.09.2008 01:36 AM

(whispers to self) She has the best Rowland S Howard eyes in the business.
"Oh hi, Cantanky! What was I saying? Oh nothing, um, er.....fried egg sandwich?"

Cantankerous 08.09.2008 01:37 AM

rowland s. howard is cool. don't fret.

i had a fried egg sandwich and four pieces of bacon for breakfast yesterday. i'm going to have a fucking heart attack.

MellySingsDoom 08.09.2008 01:39 AM

^^^You just made me think of the Beastie Boys song, "Heart Attack Man". Nice one!

terriblecanyons 08.09.2008 01:40 AM

"The eyes (often grey to greenish-brown in color) will be clear, steady and penetrating, indicating a sharpness of sight."

Uh.. yeah, that's creepy. That pretty much perfectly describes my eyes.

"There will likely be bumps, moles or warts on some part of the head, face or body"

I actually have two bumps on my skull where 'horns' would go if I had them, hah. Just the shape of my forehead, I guess.

You can kinda see them in this picture:


 


Though they look kinda blended in that picture... oh well.

Cantankerous 08.09.2008 01:48 AM

i can see them

my niece is an aries and she has the biggest head i have ever seen in my life. and she's VERY headstrong. and she's always bumping her head on things, more than any kid i've ever known.

i do have my fair share of piscean traits too
pisces is prone to foot and ankle injuries (always seems to be where i hurt myself). and they've either got tiny feet and hands or huge feet and hands (i would be the latter)

terriblecanyons 08.09.2008 01:52 AM

I used to bump my head on shit all the time as a kid. I actually have a quite a number of pictures of me at different ages with some sort of mark or bruise on my forehead from hitting it on everything.

And god, looking at that picture - I never realized my forehead was so huge. Christ.

Cantankerous 08.09.2008 01:58 AM

mine's huge too.

MellySingsDoom 08.09.2008 02:04 AM

With all this talk of horoscopes, I've love to chat further, but must get some disco sleep. Catch ya laters Cantanky and terriblecanyons - take care xx
