it's always been extremely (&surprisingly) emotional for me, though I dont believe in "death".
Moon in the 8th. <shrugs>

Look at their 4th, 8th, and 12th house placements. ....along with Pluto....
that will tell you alot about how that person views death.

i'm fascinated by it, personally... when someone passes, though, i feel odd. like i dont feel it, its more of curiosity and fascination than being scared or what not.

I think by not believing in death chrono means that your body may "die" but something else lingers.. so in essence it is not a death but just a continuation of life..

that's how I feel, anyway.

I do not fear death so much as pain, and I have an endless fascination with it as well.

Death is not something to fear.. you cannot experience something without welcoming it's opposite. ie Life is more appreciated when you acknowledge death..

I think you better look at planets in the eighth instead of sunsigns....that would be more accurate.

I have Sun and Mercury in the 8th house.. both in Cancer. I am comfortable with death, and don't see it as an end at all. I tell other who can't deal that they are okay, that they did their time, meaning they lived, went through ups and downs and they are always with us. I'm not going to say it doesn't hurt.. but you'll never see me cry at a funeral. They wouldn't want that.. instead I talk about all the good stuff. I remember them in the best way possible.

Taurus here, moon in Leo in the 12th. I have Juno in the 8th (Aqua). No idea how that relates. If someone has an idea, pls let me know.

I don't like the whole 'unto dust thou shalt return' credo. Maybe the body, sure. But like what chrono and shirty said, the soul must go somewhere.

My friend (Leo sun, Taurus moon in the 6th, empty 8th) is positively afraid of aging and dying. She's also afraid of being reincarnated into something 'bad' in her next lifetime due to karma. I told her if she got reincarnated into an eggplant, it would take about 60-something days to harvest her. Then someone would eat her for dinner. Then in the next lifetime, she might be a pigeon. She might survive at least 3-5 yrs in this concrete jungle. Etc, etc. As long as she is a good eggplant and a well-behaved pigeon, it will only take her approximately 4-6 years to return as a good ol' human. Sorry, we are so anthropocentric, haha! Anyway, no need to worry, she is a good girl...

Death terrifies me if it concerns my parents, sister, and best friend (plus future husband and children). And if it's unexpected. For everyone and everything else, I feel a sympathetic hollow in my stomach. But I can't dwell... "part of life"... = (

I've always been intrigued by it (loads of Pluto stuff going on in my chart}.

All my life I was terrified of the thought of my parents passing, but when Mum did it sort of felt different to how I had imagined. I think this is because I believe in an afterlife, so it doesnt feel so final.

As for my own death, I am not too worried, as long as I die relatively peacefully.....oh yeah and surrounded by young men, fanning me and feeding me grapes and serenading me with their acoustic guitars and violins...

Yeah I could live with that....ooops I mean die with that...

Personally - I dont know if this has to do with being Aquarian - but my approach to death scares me.

Sometimes Im paranoid about death and other times it doesnt faze me.

My mother is not very afraid of her own death, not even afraid to talk about it. She has mercury and venus in the 8th.

I've never really thought about my own death actually-it doesn't faze me, but I find it unnerving when my mother talks of hers...spooks me out sometimes. Moon in the 8th and stellium in the 12th.

I don't fear death,, my own that is.. but it does bother me being a mother of 2 small children and the thought of them losing me too soon.

Death of those close to me? Well, I am numb to it at this point. I lost my only sibling in an accident when i was 17. He was 14.
I'm overprotective of my children because of it.
I also had 5 members of my family die in the span of a year. That experience will make it very real and shake you to the core.
You grow up quick and realize just how "sure" of a thing it is.

I wish I could say otherwise, but...

I don't know if I will ever come to terms with death. I am very afraid of losing loved ones.

I am the Virgo that has many feelings about Death. As a young child I would dream of losing my Dad. Terrible Nightmares that I still remember now. When he did pass away, the lonliness and dealing with actual Death almost led me to a breakdown. To know he was closed up in a casket and in under the ground was bad. When my Mom died, I greived for her so much. I realized that the worse part of Death for the dying one is the fact that not only will they be facing the unknown, but they must leave US, the ones they love behind. They don't want to hurt us and know that we are sad for them. They want to stay and keep loving us. I guess that is where Pain plays the Big Part in the Death role. If they linger for a few weeks, it takes Pain and in the worse form to make that person be ready to give up the fight to stay with the loved one behind, and give in to death due to the severe pain. It is heartwrenching to watch someone you love and loves you have to let go. Very bad.
To spare my Children the heartache I had with both my parents, I have paid up my own Creamation and have already set up a Momument in our family plots Cemetary. The kids can bury my ashes and if they want to visti they can. I will be there in ashes form. My Spirit will be wherever God wants it to be. I don't want my children to have to deal with the details of a funeral at the loss of my life. I want to make it as easy on them as possible. I want to remain in their hearts forever.

Hello there - I have Sun and Mercury in the 8th. My Sun is in Cancer, and my Mercury is in Leo. I find death fascinating, comforting, and a bit exciting. I view it as just another step in our evolution. A new adventure. I think people go when it's their time, and they should not spend their lives fearing the moment of their death. Life is too beautiful to waste worrying about change. Even change as final and all encompassing as death.

Wonderful topic!

Anyone read Hemingway's 'The Snows of Kilimanjaro'...? Negative view of dying (pain/physical decay), but positive view of death (spiritual liberation). Thought it was interesting. Easily debatable though...

Can anyone tell me what my chart means about me and death. How will I take it and have I done the right thing to protect my children? Should I do anything differently?
