Aries Sun/Cap Moon/Aries Merc

posted April 16, 2007 07:54 PM            

I have an Aries sun/Cap Moon, as well.

I think I seem more threatening to men than women, but it's only first impressions.

I also end up with a lot of friends/acquaintances wherever I go, but that could be my 11th house Sun and Venus..

I might've seemed more cool or cold in the past though.. in high school, because I remember two of my best fiends telling me that before they knew me they thought I'd be the biggest biatch ever lol

a lot of my close friends say that they were "intimidated" by me the first few times they met me... they were actually surprised when I ended up to be nice!

Sweety......it's the cappy moon. Cappy moons pretty unemotional (to others, that is), moreover, they have seriously piercing eyes.

I only have piercing eyes when I make them piercing on purpose lol Scorpio's more naturally piercing.

Unemotional - depends what you mean by the word. If this is about love relationships, a lot of relationship-y things don't phaze me.. I'm just not that interested in people romantically, though I don't mind having someone in my life in that way.. I'm much more interested in everyone I meet personality wise and as friends..

But there are other things that would affect me a lot emotionally - If a friend or family member has a problem.. either physical or emotional, it affects me majority and I always try to help. Then there are things that just make me sad in the world in general.. but that's not personal.

Maybe she should try smiling to other females.

Yes! exactly. The easiest way to make friends, is by smiling because then they 'know' you're approachable and you want to chat.

I have absolutely zero fire in my chart, and I haven't had many female friends since I was in High School. Most of my friends are men. The only other women I tend to easily "click" with are Aries, followed by Cancers and even other Scorp women.

I have a great relationship with my mother so that's not it...

I don't attribute it to jealousy or anything like that - I don't know what a complete stranger would be jealous of.

It's always baffled me. I do know that I tend to be blunt and to the point, and that doesn't really strike me as the typical mode of communication for women, which is probably one reason why most of my friends are men. Beyond that, I have no idea. I wish I did - I find that as I get older I wish I had more opportunities for female companionship.

Men have been a-holes on occasion.. but overall I like 90% of the people I meet.. No one's that a-hole-y and people have always helped me.

I'm never sure what to think about these threads. Are you positive you're not all just agreeing.. because it sounds astrologically sound?

Don't know. It seems a bit suss to me. Almost every time someone asks these astro questions they get supported.. like "Geminis are players" "oh yes he played me".. or "Capricorns lie" "oh yes total liar that Cap was" or "Aries women are alpha" "oh yes I'm alpha totally"..

Could the people who called themselves alpha.. give me a bit of a definition.. I'm just curious as to what you guys define as "alpha"..
To me it means that you consider yourself superior in some way.. which is absolute rubbish because no one in this world is in any way superior to the next person.

Would you call Kate Hudson, alpha? She's Aries/Capricorn also. I think I'm more like her lol

:edit: Also, who is there to threaten if we are just going by typical astrological interpretations.. Aquarius? Don't think so. Gemini? Don't think so. Libra? Nope.. Fellow fire signs? Strongly doubt it.. Earth signs? They're meant to be minding their own business up the career ladder.. why would they care?.. Water signs? You could say following traditional interpretation that Pisces or Cancer could be threatened.. But what percentage of the population would that be?

There's a major difference in my mind between running a business or running a show or working as a group leader in getting a project done.. AND.. bringing that into every day person to person relationships, by trying to *run* other people's lives/ run your love relationships/run your friendships etc.. I guess I associate "alpha" with something negative.. like failing to acknowledge human equality.

Even if I was running a business, that wouldn't make the people working in that business any lesser.. nor would I treat them as 'beneath me'.. which is again a behavior I associate with alpha.. I thought it didn't only mean 'leading', but 'leading' form a superior stand point, looking down on others..

So many times I've seen women, more often times earth or water signs, trying to be in charge and bring down anyone who disagrees with them. I don't like being anywhere that is all female because it usually becomes a bitchy, nasty, estrogen charged mess.

I am an air sign and I do consider myself alpha, but not out of a need to lead. I don't need a group to build me up and although I'm assertive, I don't need to prove anything.

Women that find other women intimidating need to find their inner goddess, realize that they are in charge of their own personal world and that's all that they need.

Wierdly enough, these people were not people that KNEW me. I mean, they knew OF me, from passing, but they never had a conversation with me.... and their initial reaction was to call me cold, bitchy or unapproachable.

I started hanging out with my friends and her coworkers, the first few times they thought I was a ***** .... and then they were like "Chrissy, we totally thought you were a ***** the first time we met you!" Now they are my regular drinking buddies.

I wear kinda eccentric things, and it's always misinterpreted as me being too cocky or wanting attention. I like suspenders... they're not "popular" for women, but I think they are a cute accessory to an otherwise drab outfit, so I wear them. For whatever reason, it "intimidates" my coworkers! I almost fell off my chair when I heard that. My fashion sense intimidates them? Please.

Women don't like women who "outshine" them. Just like men don't like other men that make a lot more money than them. I have a friend that criticizes strangers for fun, she usually picks on the attractive girls, why? Because she's threatened & intimidated by girls that are thinner / prettier / better dressed than her so her defense mechanism is to talk S*it about them. It's like "well, I can't say that she's ugly, so I'll just call her a b*tch..."
