PisceanDream | I was wondering about this. A part of me thinks it could be the MC since it rules public image and reputation. Mercury (and its aspects/placement) for communication. Sun just because it is our ego and the core of our psychical being. Asc... Hmm... Perhaps? I'm not so sure. What do you guys think? Do share your ideas. Would love to hear them, as per use. |
wheresthemoon | Funny you bring this up! I've wondered about this myself. I don't think ascendant shows up so much as MC and mercury and its aspects. I have cancer ascendant (aries MC, sun, and mercury) and I recently posted a thread here asking others to guess my ascendant. I feel like in the physical world, I present myself as cancerian, so I assumed people would be able to guess my ascendant from the pics I posted, but nearly everyone who commented on my thread guessed Aries! I think the reason for this is that when you're in the physical world, you don't really choose how you present yourself - it's subconscious. You just react to the things that happen to you in the way that is most comfortable to you. That's your ascendant operating. But when you're taking selfies or posting a status update or replying on a forum like this, it takes more thought. You can project whatever you want because you can take as many pictures as you want and go back and rewrite things that don't sound right to you. That's your MC, and it's more conscious. Does that make any sense? |
DeepFreeze | They say MC. I think several show themselves but personally I think mercury above the rest. In my case, cancer mc. Which people would say makes me emotional online. However, I overall lack the softer, more gentle qualities of cancer. Cancer can be soooo sweet. I have mars conjunct mercury which would better explain my "fighty" attitude online IMO. |
DeepFreeze | Every time mc/online is mentioned I can't help but to remember Zander916. "He" made a thread about it just before leaving. |

Not to be like "I've been watching you O.O" lol but I've seen a few things you've posted, and I can kind of feel your cancer MC. Not the saccharine sweet side of cancer necessarily, but I can see it nonetheless. |
DeepFreeze | Stalker!!!! Just kidding. Yeah could be! I get accused of being emotional when in real life, apathy can really be an issue sometimes. (Cancer mc and Scorpio Uranus the only real water) |

Ha! Yeah, I'm pretty much a creeper. |
PisceanDream | @wheresthemoon Yes, excellent explanation. It definitely makes sense. I began to doubt the ASC simply because it rules the navigation of self in the physical space. I especially loved your remark about the pictures we post and how they are specifically selected in accord with our MC. Lovely and refreshing interpretation! I have a Scorpio MC conjunct Jupiter and square Mars. I definitely don't feel I come off Scorpionic here. I can feel my Pisces Mercury here more than anything. DF, do I come off Scorpio? Give me a nice critique/analysis since you know me quite well here. You too, wheresthemoon, if you've stumbled across my posts here.

Thanks=) Yes I definitely feel your Pisces Mercury (aren't you a pisces sun also?) more than anything in your posts. You're so sweet and inviting in the way you communicate. I definitely don't see that as a scorpionic trait, haha! |
DeepFreeze | Hmmmmmm.... Honestly? I see Pisces which could be your mercury/sun both but man... When you get that moon out it really comes to the front! The Scorpio could be your mc and I'm sure it plays a role. But you also have mercury square Pluto and Pluto on mc. |
PisceanDream | You're welcome! Yes I am a Pisces Sun (and Venus and Saturn all conjunct). Thank you so much for your sweet compliments. I think maybe the Scorpio shows up in my communication when I am pushed to the limits. But then again, I do have Mercury (1st) square Pluto (10th). |
PisceanDream | How did we just make the same remark about Mercury-Pluto? No but like, do you get a Scorpio vibe from me at all? Does my intensity burn your screen? LOL. |

Great minds think alike! Yeah I think you're on it. When you get fired up it comes through. I wear a flame retardant suit when you're on. lol There's intensity, but it just feels solid, not intimidating. More in line with just getting the feel that YOU will not be intimidated. |
Ami Anne | I would say MC. ------------------ Want To Ask Any Question About Bible Prophecy? Go For it. It is Free, of course. http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

I second this. Looking back I remember reading a thread recently (Criminals, or something) where this weirdo was saying all kinds of weird s*** and you were pretty ornery then hahaha. I'm slowly but surely revealing the extend of my creepy lurkingness right now. Hahaha! |
PisceanDream | DF, I relate to that. Thanks! And really? Flame retardant suit? wheresthemoon, I LOL'd and just went to reread my comments AND GIRL. Who does that?! Cerrrtainly not Sun-Mercury sq Pluto person with a Scorpio MC... |

Assuming you're talking about the lurking, I'm guessing Pluto would definitely be involved! I have a super obsessive personality, but I'm not super Plutonian. I do have Venus opposite Pluto though so I'll just pin it to that, lol! |
teasel | I have a Leo MC, ruled by an Aries Sun (which is ruled by Mars in Pisces). I used to be extremely private, and was always called "mysterious". I have Uranus conjunct ascendant, and aspecting many planets, so that might tie into it. I have Chiron and Ceres conjunct Mercury/Sun in the 6th. Mercury, Jupiter, and Neptune all trine my MC. |
PixieJane | I could see how my Gemini MC would show online...and yet generally speaking, people OL normally mistake me for a Scorpio, apparently for my interests and cutting through dogmatic BS and not cringing when it gets dark and/or taboo, and for appearing to have a lot of self-control (that is not getting all Jerry Springer when things get heated). At least two people (one a deputy) thought I should've been a detective. Though interesting enough, when I was younger people who tried to guess my sign in real life often mistook me for a Sag, I guess for my energy and tomboyishness as well as candor. Unlike the net they had my physical features, tone of voice, and things like that to go on rather than just the content of my words (and I tend to speak differently in real life than on the net because I was trained to). |
Comatoes | Besides Mercury and MC, probably anything in the 3rd house or the planet/sign on the cusp of the 3rd house, also the Moon. I can notice people's Moon sign when they write, especially Moons I'm more attuned to. I have to also go with Neptune -- people can create fantasies about themselves online or about other people. So Neptunian aspects can factor into this. Being online is illusion and mystique. I think whatever our Neptune is doing it can have a baring on our online communication. Online communicating can get fogged up and taken out of context, all very confusing, since how we write can come off differently than how we actually feel. |
PixieJane | Heh, I just remembered...back when I was first involving myself OL I was trained to express myself academically and when I debated I'd quote sources, make footnotes, etc (I learned this from an English major who got her degree back in the 60s, IIRC)--I'd eventually make myself tone it down because more than one person actually thought I had a PhD which blew my mind (and I never made any such claim). Around this time I got close OL to a Wiccan who lived a few hundred miles from me. After I moved to her city she was eager to meet me and show me around...until she saw me. I was gothed out, hair dyed two colors, lots of patches on a trench coat, carrying a skateboard, and that freaked her out so that we didn't have much to do with each other until I moved away and then it was strictly OL. She said she'd IMAGINED me as being a bit nerdy with over sized sweater, glasses, uncombed hair its natural color, and basically saw me as someone with my head in a book. But when she SAW me she envisioned someone who did a lot of drugs, temperamental, and probably into a lot of kinky sex and didn't want to be seen with me for fear people would we were involved in something really dark and taboo made worse that she was about 30 and she said she wasn't surprised I got carded sometimes to get into a R-rated movie (and her being in the broom closet while I was obviously a pagan). She'd be fine with how I look today but I lost touch with her many years ago. |
aquaguy91 | I have Sag MC. I wonder if that shows up online? |
BellaFenice | Uh....my MC is Libra? MC square Mercury, quin Jupiter, quintile Saturn, quintile Neptune) I think my Cap Mercury and 1st house Mercury (trine Jupiter, quintile Pluto, trine Lillith) is more prominent. I think my moon comes into play though too- trine Saturn, Uranus, quin Venus, conj NN.
