I have only two fire elements in my chart, which is neptune and nnode, both in sag. the rest is an equal mix of earth & air and water. no fixed elements, NOT ONE!!

however, the person i married is mostly fixed fire and air..and it appears we manifest people in our life based upon the need to integrate those missing elements.

has anyone else noticed this happening in thier personal lives? drawing in someone completely different, astrologically speaking?

About a week ago I made a chart, got out the ephermis...and figured out what signs the planets are in for my family members, and then my closest friends. The results were remarkable! I have a lot of Virgo, Taurus, Scorpio, and Libra. My mom, dad, and brother are missing an abundance of ALL of these signs in their charts. In fact my mom's is almost all Aquarius with her Pisces Sun, and my bro has tons of Gemini and some Cap.

However, my closest friends all share an abundance of all of MY signs, the ones missing in my family members! It's as if I'm missing people I can relate to in my family so I search for them in friends.

I also noticed in my closest friends, if they have lots of water they also are fixed, and if they have lots of air they are cardinal. I am an earth, mutable. (I don't mean the sun sign has to be earth, air, water, or fire, that just has to be the ruling element).

vtt,

interesting stuff because i found that my astro line up is more in-tune with my family's, mom and dad both virgo. yet i have more deep relationships with friends who tend to be very different to my own astrology.

for example, two of my closest friends. a heavy gemini person (sun, merc, venus, mars in gem), a heavy aries person (sun, asc, merc, venus, mars) and i have NONE of those signs with the exception of a snode in gem and aries chiron.

VTT, are you close with your parents? i wonder about this because I am NOT close with mine, therefore it would make sense for me to find others not like myself due to the lack of closeness with my own family..

I'm close in a sense...I live at home still, and have to put up with them all the time, but I despise my family. Cannot stand the way they act at all! So that might be why I'm drawn more to people like myself, to deflect from having to deal with people who remind me of my parents. They're a Leo and a Pisces - I have only 1 friend who is a Leo but she has lots of Libran influences, which my Leo dad has none of. Actually I like my Gemini bro, and for awhile I had a Cancer friend whose chart was eerily similar to his. But I do not make friends of other Geminis! Haha.

Oh and check this out! My boyfriend has natal Mars thru natal Pluto, plus true node in retrograde. My brother has all the same planets and that true node in retrograde as well! In everyone's chart that I did, that doesn't show up as a similarity in anyone else's chart.

My bf is a taurus (holy crap, i just realized his Merc is in Gemini, which is my bro's sun!).

Oops haha I meant all the planets from Mars to Pluto are in retrograde. Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto! Oh the insanity!

I have a lot of fire, and earth and I couldn't love and live with someone who didn't have at least two fire placements. It helps if they are personal planets.

So I am not sure if I could go with the opposite. Most of the people I know are not romantic, are all air. And you know as well as I, mainly air friends never tell you what they are feeling, so who knows if we are attracted? I like at least some fire, mainly Leo, or Sag, some first house activity.

I think you are absolutely right, we balance out our energies with those we attract. My two previous serious relationships were with a Pisces and a Virgo and my new guy is a Pisces too. I have mostly fire and air in my chart, as do all my friends. My only friend who is a Scorpio has Gemini rising and an Aquarius moon and lots of air and fire in the rest of her chart. My life would probably be very unbalanced if I didn't pick eathy, watery types to be romantically involved with. I guess thats a good way to look at it.

I have tended to attract mostly Aries men. I dont know why, they get on my nerves. Its never worked out - they all share similar traits, such as always correcting me and always having to be right and having the last word. Oh, and always blowing their own trumpet!

I dont know what my karmic journey is supposed to be with this.. maybe Im meant to learn something from them? Or be like them? I dont have much fire in my chart, mostly earth and water, and a little air, so maybe the fire is supposed to complete me in some way?? I dunno.

The only thing I did like about them was they always took charge... mmmm, quite liked that! They all had this way of grabbing you by the arm while walking and kind of leading you — and you know what? I didnt actually mind!! heheh

moonshine,

is it possible that these Aries men were reflecting traits in you that you've repressed? Often the things that attract us to someone else are parts of ourself that we don't accept. Same is said about the things that we don't like in other people. They are just pieces of you that you've not yet accepted and integrated.

To have these traits constantly being thrown at you I would expect is a message that you should get in touch with these aspects of your darker side.

I understand your point but I actually never said that I was attracted TO them. Why would I find traits I dislike in myself attractive in others? I cant stand boastfulness, conceit, arrogance and insensitivity, and I certainly try not to be like that myself - so why would i be getting that message, to explore that side of myself? And to be honest arrogance aside, (which can be sexy), the other traits are pretty crap traits to have and i actually loathed some of these guys.

It's not that we are necessarily attracted consciously, but because these traits are ones you are lacking (for better or worse), perhaps thats why you are drawn to people who possess them.

It's just an idea. I certainly am not consciously attracted to earth and water signs. I tend to like men who are fire signs. I just never have lasting relationships with them, lol.

i drew in an aries girfriend who was primarily cardinal fire and she was shown me so much in terms of confidence, directed energy and follow-through. yes she has her own set of foibles as well all do, however she brings out a positivity in my life I cannot deny.
