I'm a loner. I prefer shopping alone, making decisions alone, don't mind eating alone..etc. I'm alone alot. People call me a loner. I pass up on social invitations unless someone who I find it interesting and usefull to talk to will be there.If I must attend a social function, I will do so, and come through in spades, but I always tend to dread them. I'm a Leo. I'm suppose to love that sort of thing! I have Saturn in a perfect trine to Venus. Suppose that's why? Maybe my Aqua moon? Do you prefer to do things alone? Why do you suppose that is? What's your moon? What's the condition and/or sign of your Venus?
How do YOU feel about being alone?

Hi Lioneye...Mr. Leo was like that too (Leo Sun / Aqua moon)..As for me..yep..yep and yep. I like to shop alone - especially grocery shopping. I don't mind eating alone and I like to spend hours at home by myself. I do like to socialize, but only when I am in the mood- then I like to retreat back to my space and just hang out.
I have a solid Sun trine Saturn and a loose Venus trine Saturn.

oooh oooh.. me me me.
I need to be alone. I thrive in social situations, yes... but sometimes find them draining. I need to be alone to regroup. I have never had a problem doing anything alone.
I have Saturn trine Venus as well.. hmmmm.....IP: Logged |

I have a better time alone usually, I feel more focused, can get things done in my own way and usually faster. The thing is I sometimes can be, and want to be extremely comfortable alone but part of me screams to be with others! Ahh! Conflict. I think the loner part of me might just be part of being a Virgo, and maybe my Venus square Uranus. I also have Moon square Venus, which may be another reason. I'll usually pass up on major social situations, as they don't make me comfortable and I don't have fun at them. A random good time with a very very good friend is usually all I want. IP: Logged |

*raises hand and waves*I crave alone time. Not that I'm a *loner* particularly, but I can go anywhere and do anything by myself. If I feel like I don't want to be alone and want to talk to a stranger, the Leo Ascendant that shines off me like a beacon attracts enough attention. I do save Sundays as "my day" and almost everyone in my life knows not to call me, stop by, etc. If I do not get this quality "me" time I will go absolutely crazy! This is something that I've learned about myself just in the past year or so... making time for quiet and solitude because w/o it I'm full of nervous energy. Angela

I don't like to walk alone, eat alone, or go to parties alone...the list goes on. It's really kind of pathetic but I just need another person around me to feel comfortable. I'm a packrat I guess, but I do have my loner moments! Sometimes in a crowd of people I feel like I'm alone which is weird. But my favorite alone time is in my car. I cherish it, just me the music and *near* car accidents hehe  IP: Logged |

I am not a loner but I am comfortable being alone.
I have heard my friends saying they cant stay alone/ eat alone.
I enjoy staying alone at home.
But when it comes to going out, i need company.
its very difficult for me to shop alone cuz i need different point of views
also i need to smile/laugh a lot and talk a lot
I have Quite different personality outside home.
Anyway right now i m acting as a loner outside also (Just have acquaintances and colleagues !!)
Not bad since i talk to myself a lot
I have aqua moon , my saturn trine venus & my moon square venus.
Quite a loner, isnt it?IP: Logged |

Yes, I need major doses of alone time in order to function well. People don't understand that, they think I'm being snotty or something. No offense to them, really, I just enjoy being alone. I thought my Taurus Sun with Libra rising would make me more outgoing, but I guess not. I'll have to break the Venus trine Saturn thing though...since my Venus has absolutely no aspects at all. But my Saturn is opposed to my Ascendant, which is Libra. And technically Saturn is in my 7th house. Now can someone explain to me what I just said? LOL Oh, my moon is in Virgo, in the 12th house, conjunct both Uranus and Pluto. If that means anything. Please forgive the astrological novice. IP: Logged |

Oooooh! Ooooh! Me! I need to be alone and zone out... preferably for about an hour, but if I can't get that... at least somewhat semi-regularly. My mother and ex-husband never understood this. both took it personally constantly. I actually prefer shopping alone... only cause I hate waiting for ppl to try on clothes... and beacuse my style of shopping is to zoom in, have a quick look to see if anything catches my eye and zoom out again... Actually... I don't even enjoy shopping. I know what I'm look I'm going for and I usually will buy things I need or find out who carries something I like and go out and buy that. I hate shopping aimlessly. Or if I shop I'll go to my favourite stores... like in the US... Banana Republic and lesser known Intermix... they always have something I wanna fork over my cash for... I love them both! And in Australia... Oxford Street, Sydney... I love shopping there! I come home with bags and bags of stuff, heh... but your average mall... ugh... NO... I hate it. I don't like eating alone, but if I have to, it's OK. I like working out alone... actually, my workouts satisfy my hour of alone time usually... I just zone out... focus... sweat it out... I almost feel like I'm meditating when I'm on the treadmill sometimes. I'll zone out and before I know it, 10 minutes have passed... and I've just been thinking - deeply. I'll go to a party where I don't know anyone. I find with parties, it really depends on the crowd. If they are closed off and snotty, you can be the most vivacious person in the world and still feel like a heel at a party like that. But if I don't have a whiff of any of that and think the crowd will be cool, I'll go, I don't care I like meeting people. My Venus is in the 3rd house (Sag), conjunct Neptune. It is square Saturn, trine Pluto, square North Node and quintile my Ascendant. There are a few other semi-squares and other minor aspects too. I'm a Cappy moon, Libra rising. IP: Logged |

Yes. I actually have a better time alone. It's that simple. Not that I don't like people, it's just that alone, it's the only time I can be totally myself. Oddly enough, not a lot of people seem to get that, as AG said, they always always take it personally. I could care less tho, I need to have my me time, that's just the way it is. I'v noticed a lot of other Scorps who also cherish thie time alone, did anyone else notice that too?IP: Logged |

Yep, me too. I adore being alone ~ I really treasure it. I do like the company of others, but have always been more focused on a task when I go within myself to ponder it. I have the best thoughts alone too - sometimes inspired by people watching in a busy place. I do love social gatherings, but need to re-group myself soon after! IP: Logged |

needing alone time is a leading indicator of a sensitive nervous system. taking on anothers energies and feeling englufed or suffocated by them is a common feeling in my life. im double virgo w/ can asc and many 4th house placements. sat is also in cancer sextile venus, sun &moon. my husband is leo and doesn't seem to have this issue, although he does have many first house placements in the fixed sign of leo. i also find it dreadful when i know i have a social event i need to attend, unless it involves close friends. noise tires me.

Aqua Girl....Are you my TWIN?
LMAO..I am so similar to you regarding the shopping and working out. I love to do my cardio and yoga ALONE- it helps me center myself and sort of zone out. Also, I don't like being at the gym with all those sweaty people- I feel like they are intruding on my psyche..LOL

my problem is that I am constantly surrounded by people at my own doing then all of a sudden in the middle of an event I get the urge to run off by myself and leave the people around my confused at my sudden departure. it's like I want all these people around but once I'm in the midst of something I want to be by myself. but for the record, I don't have any problem being by myself. Shopping, eating, running errands, I don't need anyone there, they would just slow me down. I hate going to the movies or watching television by myself though, I like someone there to be able to discuss things with. oh! or if I'm shopping but want an opinion on something, I can be so indecisive it's actually annoying, sometimes I need someone there as a sounding board. but those are really the only times I NEED someone there, otherwise I'm fine by myself. In fact I get called a loner a lot, which I don't really consider a bad thing. ------------------

I've always been a loner, but I guess it partly comes from being an only child. I like to see people, but on my own terms. I love to work for hours absorbed in my painting, without any extraneous noise whatever. (I have a Pisces Moon/Venus, and Virgo rising.) Selfish? Probably. - Hey, but if we all desired such minimal human interaction, would we be posting on here?

I feel the need to be alone 90% of the time too. Like mystic scorpio said, its the only time i can really be me. I find other people's thoughts and emotions filter right into me so I need time to myself to filter them all out again and find my own thoughts and emotions. (I dont know if that made any sense!) When Im with people they tend to do most of the talking and i feel like a listening post - sometimes I dont know what my own opinions are! Or when Im asked, I cant remember. (I know that sounds really stupid but its actually true). Its my Pisces moon doing this.To illustrate, I have one really good friend (cancer) - my best and oldest friend in fact, who is lovely, beautiful, strong independent, etc etc, and we always have a good time. I've always looked up to her. But she never reads any books, or ever wants to discuss anything "deep" or get too deep into things, unlike me. She hates astrology, or anything "esoteric", and is very streetwise and businessminded and down to earth type of person. Up until a few years ago we spent so much time in each other's company, i started thinking like her, the way she judged people by their looks, the way she saw life as she thought it should be lived. She takes everything at shallow face value and I started doing that too. I became more extrovert and sort of lost myself a bit, even ignoring my intuitiveness. And while I was having really good fun all the time, i had this nagging "hole" inside me telling me somethings missing. I ignored it but it grew and I realised I wasnt being me - not the real me, who believes in astrology, and tarot, loves to read fantasy books and is not very streetwise or business-minded. I've since rediscovered my old self and feel happier, and "fuller" even though my friendship is less close now, which Im sad about but hey, you cant have everything. When I meet my firend, sometimes I find my self reverting, but that happens less and less now. I still think she's a great person though, and we are still friends, but I cant talk to her about this, Idont think she's aware of any of the 'internal transforming' I've been going through!
Anyway, Im rambling now! But sometimes I do still force myself to go out because sometimes it bothers me if i spend too much time on my own. I want to have memories of times other than just me being by myself.
