I’ve thought about this for a little while - I think I understand the concept of elements…but do you sometimes think there’s an odd one out??

Look at the water sign - Cancer and Scorpio both seem like very driven, strong signs - be it in their careers, home life…whatever.

But Pisces just seems to be very…well bland at least in comparison.
Could it be because, they’re both ruled by powerful planets? And Neptune isn’t as strong? What about the other elements?

pisces in water
libra in air
cappy in earth
aries in fire

i think

dont mean to offend any of the above signs

i always thot for ex. that the gems and aquas seem to band together and the libras are too mellow and nice and just not weird , eccentric and strange enough to understand most of the time. heheh theyre too sweet huh.

rest is just observation

ahh, u guyz are too much, poor Future..

I don't really think pisces is really an "outcast", I mean I think all three water signs happen to be very emotional, almost like sponges, pisces even more so. Pisces is just less volatile to me. That's the ONLY difference between them and the other two.

SG, Im curious to know how you think Aries are the "third wheel" of the fire signs, and capricorn of the earth signs
but I do agree about the libras and the air signs.

Hmm....I would've said it more like...

Cancer in Water
Libra in Air
Taurus in Earth
Sagittarius in Fire

Hah. As far as sticking out.

Scorpio and Pisces are more occult-y than Cancer. More probing, I guess. I don't really think of Cancer as all that mysterious or anything.

Libra seems more about aesthetics than communication (in the tangible forms, I mean). It seems to be more about beauty than communication. The whole marriage/one-on-one partnership aspect aside.

Taurus is more...I guess, self-serving than Virgo or Capricorn. Being ruled by Venus, it's naturally more artsy, I guess, too. I've read that Taurus can be kind of lazy, too, and I've never heard of Capricorn or Virgo being described as such.

Oh, and Future_Uncertain doesn't mind her initials. She thought about changing her name, but then decided to keep it.

I think sag stands out as weird for fire, saggies are so much more scattered than leo and aries, and can actually see past their noses when they need to

Cancer stands out weird for water, cancer is actually cut off from their emotions in many respects

Cap stands out weird for earth, cap can be absolutely rediculous and unconventional at times, they really can shock you with how inconsistent, capricious, and self centered they are, even more scattered than virgo at times

however, in reality, its deeper than that. i envy them so much. sometimes i wish i was a pisces, i wish i was so very strong with my compassion and just like a more spiritual person.

to me it's:

Virgo
Scorpio (kinda fiery, actually)
Sagittarius
Libra

But others would clearly disagree...

virgo (ruled by airy mercury),
libra (ruled by earthy venus),
scorpio (originally ruled by firey mars)
and sag (originally shared jupiter w/ pisces)

I have always had a pretty nonchalant attitude about the town, but ironically I always hear people that have moved from other areas of the country say they love it here. (go figure)

In the past 10 years there has been a lot of growth as far as spiritual openess. There are many new age stores, more types of churches other than christian (unitarian, scientology, unity, etc), and there is a lot of interest in natural health around here. I know it's no big city, but it is kind of cool that you have all of that, but still can get around town relatively easy and the people are nice. (although traffic is getting to be a b****)

nove- did you grow up around here, or are you from somewhere else... most people that are from the area tend to not like it as opposed to those that are used to something else... My experience anyway.

When I was there it was between 1991 and 1994. I had come from southern California. It was total culture shock. There's not a lot of diversity. There is noticable racism. The music I like(d) wasn't being played on the radio. It was tough to establish rapport with people who'd never been out of the area. The kids didn't have a whole lot of things to do, so they resorted to drinking and drugs. In the Brentwood area, all the kids conformed to some area idea of how they should be (that may be the result of wealth in the area).
