No. I shouldn't think so. Interestly enough.Every other Virgo I've met has always got a little spark of pride at meeting another Virgo. Virgos always know who they are. Never met one yet whose gone 'zodiac what'. Just think about the astounding amount of Virgos on this site alone!!! IP: Logged |

I'd say Libra. They're the ones who go "It can't be proven, so it can't be true. Lets debate about it. And I know I will win because I have common sense and science on my side."After that, I'd say Cancer. At least they talk like they think it's bunk. I think alot of them just don't like the name of their sign, and also, what astrology reveals about them - all those tender bits underneath that they so viciously defend. Having said that, I have noticed that it's usually the Capricorn astrology books that are the last to leave the bookshelves in bookstores. IP: Logged |

I would have said Librans too... although there are quite a few on this site. On the other hand (haha), a Cancer guy with a Libran Ascendant asked me to do his chart and listened when I blathered on about astrology... maybe he's a very good actor or very polite.Capricorns! Actually that makes sense. Shame. I do so love Cappys. IP: Logged |

Well, I couldn't really decide myself, so you won't be getting my opinion (besides that right off I wanted to say the chances of water signs being nonbelievers is probably much less) :P but I decided to go check out the membership of the communities for each sign on this journaling site I use. All of the communites have been around for awhile as far as I have seen so I don't think there could be a huge error due to one being around longer or shorter...anyhow, this is how the membership of each community is there, ranked from lowest to highest:Capricorn - 154 Taurus - 206 Sagittarius - 215 Aries - 336 Libra - 410 Cancer - 422 Leo - 486 Gemini - 554 Aquarius - 574 Scorpio - 582 Pisces - 596 Virgo - 630 neat, eh?

Well, there's the Virgos love astrology theory proved here and there. We are the majority! Haha. Don't mess with us!I think the thing with Capricorns is they just don't get it. As far as I've seen they haven't ever told me they think it's a load of bollocks.. they just forget, they aren't that interested. Perhaps they don't have time? And I thought there would be way more Aries and Sag people than that. Hmmm....... interesting.

Hang on - I'm kinda fuzzy on the details here, VTT. Is this an Astrology site you're pulling these stats from? Or, what do you mean journaling site?Because there could other elements in these stats that we should consider. For instance, most of the Virgos I know are self-admitted computer geeks. That could bring their numbers up on internet forums in general, because there are so many of them online. Also, the Capricorns are DOERS, and may simply not spend alot of time surfing the net - they're too busy DOING stuff. Same with Saggie. They are one of the most open minded signs of the Zodiac, and I believe the majority of them do believe in Astrology, but they're too busy exploring life to hang out online too much, in Astro forums and such. (except on this site -there are plenty Saggies here) Anyway, do you see what I'm getting at about where these stats come from? They only deal with people who are part of an online community.

Yeah. Makes me wonder why there aren't more Geminis. Man, do they love their computers. *she says, sitting in a cold, dingy computer room*.Oh, I see. Hypocrisy I don't think Caps are anti-believers. Nor Aries or Saggies. As lioneye said, they probably just have more important things to do. Taureans I tend to find aren't very technology inclined. One I know still doesn't even own a tv.

I meant journaling site. That's it. There just happened to be astrology communities on there. I dunno, I don't really recall me stating that those are stats for the world over or if I even thought they were cold hard evidence of which sign is most and least interested in astrology. I thought it was kind of clear those were stats for that one site and I thought others would simply find it interesting. Let me reiterate what I said in the first place: I didn't state my own opinion besides water signs. IP: Logged |

Ive met several Leo men who are completely cynical about it and look at me in a strange way when Ive approached the subject, and some Aries males too xIP: Logged |

Cancer.. they've been the first to give me the disagreeing, suspicious look, when I mentioned star signs. On the 3 occasions this happened, it was mainly because of their faith in God and thinking astro was against religion..only men though, it's pretty strange really.. because I've noticed the opposite about Cancer girls they're usually very interested IP: Logged |

I mos definitely think cancer are full of ca ca when they say they dont believe!...In astrology!Cancerians are one of the most intuitive (in my humble opinion) beings around. They never really know why, but they sure do know what. IP: Logged |

Hmm.... this has turned out to be a load of bullcrap. I'm seeing no real patterns here, because anything one person notices can be easily disputed by another...One thing I've noticed though! It appears men believe less in it than women! Well, that's hardly suprising. IP: Logged |

I've noticed that the Capricorn and Sag books are last to sell. Cancer is usually gone first along with other water signs.IP: Logged |

Perhaps those books were bought mostly by female Cancers
