hmm?...Not afraid of water [though I've drown, or Bees [though I'm allergic]....

Not even afraid of death, public speaking, or spiders.

I have really only one fear:
It is Thunder- "Ceraunophobia"

I have memories as a young child hiding under my bed while the rest of the family watched in awe the thunderstorms in the sky.

To me... It meant; God was angry.

Here's an interesting link for those wishing to discover the name of phobias:

I'm actually a bit surprised by the fear of cats... You do have a leo rising as well. Hmm?

Neat topic!

LOL

I'm also scared of getting trapped in a crowd... actually it happened to me in 2004 (in a political act) and after that day, I got the phobia.

I'm terrified of it happening again- I can't go to concerts or public acts with lots of ppl anymore... :S

Taurus sun
Scorpio moon
Sagittarius rising

I'm not sure which placements would relate to these fears, I'm going to take a wild guess and say Neptune in 12th or Saturn in Cancer for my fear of water/waves/tsunamis. I would think that being Taurus/Scorpio with Saturn in Cancer gives me a strong need for security and if that sense of security is undermined then my fears break loose.

How does one define a fear - like does it stop you from doing things? If you're afraid of bees does it stop you going out to picnics in Summer or if you're scared of waves does it stop you from going to the beach? I only really regard something as a 'fear' if it stops you from living.

I don't really have any fears anymore. When I was younger I didn't like spiders, living in Australia cured me - they're everywhere, so you get used to them. I was once afraid of water but went to swimming lessons a few years ago and found I got good at swimming pretty quickly, so no longer scared of water, I actually love it now I think the key here is exposing yourself to that which makes you afraid and challenging it.

The only thing that creeps me out now is loss of a loved one and I have made sure my family know NOT to put me in the ground when I go (should this be IF I go? LOL) cos I don't like those films where people are buried alive - eww
But it doesn't stop me living and having as many adventures as I can - of course exploring caves underground is not something I would expose myself to

#2 - Heights. This one can be pretty crippling too. My knees will actually buckle if I'm too high up.

#3 - Spiders and generally anything with more than 4 legs.

I thought the same thing that it is pretty wierd of me to be terrified of cats being a leo asc, but for some reason I am.

I will not go into a house where there is a cat, and when I leave my apartment I check the halls before I put a foot out the door to make sure there is no cat wondering around. If I do happen to encounter one I freeze because I am afraid to run because it will chase me. Just writing about it is making me paranoid.
