LOL..so you were blessed with the big Sag mouth too huh? LOL....I am sure AriesRocks is wondering what the heck we are talking about. LOL....I have a huge mouth and so does GloomySag it would appear.

Thank you for the compliments. I love this place too as it has so much of a warm feel that others forums don't seem to have.

You are so sweet, I wish I was closer to New England too.

I noticed that as I get older I am becoming more like my father in many ways. He is very strong and work oriented and I adopted that phiolosphy. We also have the same sense of humor, like to go out, but we are also somewhat homebodies. That could be due to the fact that I have my Sun and Venus in the 4th house - with my Mercury in Capricorn in the 5th house.

Now, we didn't always get along. He used to think of me as a flake because I was always bouncing around with my head in the clouds. I still am like that - I just kind of keep it to myself a bit - although if you look close I am usually busting at the seams to laugh or get it out.

My relationship with my father was always very authoritative - he being the authority in the house and not much into being open. It wasn't until I graduated from college and moved back to California that he and I began to really talk. We ended up in a huge fight with him doing his normal Cappy lecturing "Pidaua, you head is always in the clouds and you are just going to get hurt". I said "Why don't you ever listen to me, all you do is snap at me? When have I ever said I am going to do something and haven't done it?"

Finally, it all came to a head when he said "Pidaua, you talk about things that I don't understand (now my father is actually extremely intelligent - but he meant my background in science). I don't know how to connect with you and I don't know the things you talk about".

So there is was. My father - the idol in my life- telling me he didn't "get me". I realized - hey, he's human. See, I had always put him on a pedastal - like so many of us Saggie girls do with our fathers.

Now, hell, we get along so well, that we talk for hours on the phone about everything. He and I spend a lot of time hiking, landscaping his house and shooting the breeze. He has even said to his co-workers that his daughter is just like him.

Anyway, I am closer to my mom - emotionally, but I do not always understand her. On the other hand, you have an Aries mom so that may help with your connection. My mom is a double cancer with a Scorp rising. LOL..very hard to me to identify with her on a lot of levels.

You're ex had Venus and Mars in Leo? So did mine. He was a Virgo Sun, Gem moon, Mercury in Virgo.

Now, in my case, sexually he was cold and emotionally he was closed off. So, he would demonstrate a great temper tantrum when he didn't get his way, but there was no fire for romance, love or sex. We are still best of friends and we talk a few nights a week on the phone while spending usually one afternoon / dinner over the weekend hanging out. That would all end if he knew about Mr Leo.

As far as the analytical bit, yep, they tend to be that, which is wonderful in discussions, not so great when it is turned onto you and what they think you should fix. It is true that a Sag woman NEEDS a man with a warm heart..some fire to handle our need to debate and definite desire to be physical.

He would never talk to me again if he knew I was with someone else. He suspects it - but we don't talk about it.

The funny thing about posting my dudes pic is that I just don't feel right about it. It could be because in synastry he falls in my 12th house. Meaning, I like to keep him away from certain things, maybe even like keeping him secret. Someday I will post his pic. He does look like a typical Leo though. Large head, big hazel eyes, cleft in his chin with one of those delicious mouths. LOL...after 2 years I still lust after him..and that is quite a feat for a Sag.
