I have always had a good network of friends, but sometimes we drift (that is so Saggie). I also have Venus in Sag in the 3rd house of communication - so that may make it a little easier for me to meet and stay friends with people.

I also have Saturn in the 11th house right now, but with it being in Leo it has actually energized my involvment with friends and groups. Never in my life (well, not since college) have I had so many social engagements and such a wide group of friends / organizations.

But.... whether it is the Archer in my or the Virgo rising, I am not a clingy friend and seldom hang out with the same person for long periods (unless they are my mate and even then I need my space). When someone starts to take up too much of my time I kind of slip away LOL..

My sun is in Aries, and my moon is in Sagittarius. Blah.

I have my moon in the 3rd House.

Maybe you could give one of your friends a call. Maybe meet somewhere for a movie..etc.

I have a lot of air, which makes me very independant, if not a tad unreliable and/or argumentive at times, and an air grand trine, which is a config that's known for being a bit "impenetrable" - I tend to be very aloof and removed from the people I'm around as a norm, and I'm very hard to get to know. Being a Virgo Rising too doesn't help.

I always think of Sags as being so friendly. Always having lots of friends. That unbridled optimism is attractive.

Nove,

Are you apart of any organizations?

Hrm. That's the thing I guess. It felt like those people were friends, but they really weren't. If you know what I mean? Lmao. I confuse myself. But, I don't know. Blah. I'm just so articulate, aren't I?

Organizations? Lady, I'm in theatre. Productions is more the word. I'm in one right now. I'm like the frickin' leper of the cast. No one ever talks to me. I come in, practice my scene, and leave. It's like people don't even notice that I'm there. I know them and all, but their the types that really only want to talk to me when they can gain something from it.

I half expect to be able to sit in the middle of the hallway during class changes and for people to just walk right through me. Lmao. Okay. That was a really crappy joke.

A lot of people only ever talk to me because I'm "smart". They only talk to me when they want answers to a question or something. I almost feel like a computer.

And I have Pluto rising with Uranus in the 1st too - yeah, I'm no Miss Affiablity. I'm more like Miss Fortress of Solitude, at least on the surface.

I have Saturn Trine Ascendant. I don't exactly know how that makes me come off, but I imagine not to pleasantly.

i also have Merc in aqua trine pluto in libra.. superficial social stuff sooooooo doesnt suit me. Im more interested in what people know than who, or what they can do, than social b.s.

on the Meyers Briggs personality tests im 51 per cent extrovert, 49 introvert.. (the rest is N (intuitive) T (thinking) P (perceptive)

so it really depends on my mood...

Would describe myself as an introverted extrovert....if that makes sense !!

Although saying that... I dont think Ive actually seen any of those clothes IN Gap!!
Lol!!

You should also check to see where Mercury is in your chart, since it rules your ASC sign, Virgo, and also rules Gemini, the sign of friends, which is most likely on your MC.

How are you doing? I hope all is well. I think we Saggies CAN be very optimistic and approachable, which sometimes attracts the wrong people, but they end up going their own way after a while LOL....

Nove,

Have you thought that maybe you are intimidating? I also walk into an unfamilar scene and sometimes won't approach anyone for a while (that is the Virgo rising summing up the crowd). I used to feel hurt that people didn't come right up to me, but then I had a few friends tell me that there are times I am intimidating. I am very tall and.. ugh, this will sound so stuckup.. but I am not, but striking to look at. Sometimes that intimidates people and they have said "I really wanted to talk to you, but felt that you were out of my league".

In actuality, that Virgo rising makes us a bit shy -but people don't always see that. We CAN come across as aloof or focused like GeminiNympth said. In that case, it may be up to you to make the effort to approach people. I am not sure how people see you, but they may only be seeing that "icy" part, not realizing that the fire burns deep.

For me... Well, that damn Archer has to come out- especially when I am with a few friends and have a few drinks. Next thing you know, I am talking to perfect strangers and end up making friends that seem to last a good long while (unless I move again or they get too clingy).

Don't worry too much about the Summer Vacation thing. It is a natural part of the cycle and doesn't indicate you are a bad person. I had many friends during the school years, but the vacations had us doing things with family or other friends. It doesn't mean they aren't true, but they may have other commitments.

I also know a fellow w. a Virgo rising and his sun in Cancer! It would seem like the man might have even fewer friends because a Cancer can be introverted a bit. Not so. The man is the light of the party. The no-friend thing might be found in a different part of the chart ... or might not be astrological in this case?

To be honest, I've thought about that. Especially since I have Saturn trine my Ascendant. But, I've never had anyone tell me that I was intimidating. People have told me that I come off as very confident, almost to the point of being cocky, though. Which, I honestly find very odd, but whatever.

Lmao. I'm not "striking to look at". I'm not ordinary, or ugly or anything, but I'm just not all that great looking either. I look kinda funny. My native american genes make me look kind of odd.

This is the part that made me check it out of the library:

"It is easy to spot one with Virgo ascending by the way he takes in a situation around him. He will notice objects in a room that others may not know are there. He sizes up the immediate environment to get the feel of the lay of the land, and then may begin to feel comfortable. He needs to be aware of things, and though he may not be obvious about it, not much escapes his attention. When he begins to ask questions, it's a dead giveaway that he has Virgo on the rise."

Wow!

It's true for me - I have Virgo rising (I actually fit into the description of a Virgo more than of my actual Sun sign) and I've always chosen quality over quantity when it comes to friendships. I simply don't have the energy to maintain a lot of relationships because "friends" seem to come to me for help too much and suck the life out of me! >=( lol

Oh, I know...Virgo is so much more me than Aries...
