Hi guys. This is my data: Sun Virgo Moon Cancer Mercury Libra Venus Virgo Mars Scorpio Jupiter Scorpio Saturn Libra Asc Scorpio Astro.com confirmed my suspicions that I'm no real Virgo. I'd love to have stronger Virgo qualities because I envy that diligence and their need to serve qualities but I only act like a Virgo when I need to. I am this instead, in order of strength to weakness: 1. Scorpio 2. Aries 3. Libra 4. Cancer 5. Virgo at less than 10% (8.1% at number 7 rank) What is your true sign and which is the imposter?

Hi guys. Thanks for the responses. It was quite interesting to read. It just shows that counting on the Sun sign to determine behaviour, as most of the world believe it is done, is very inaccurate. It explains why people of opposing or square Sun signs can still get along, regardless of nature of their tough aspects. It also makes me wonder about those magazine and newspaper horoscopes. Have you ever noticed how some people get put of by a person's Sun sign? It is presumptous and rash, isn't it? This is a good subject for those new to astrology to see because it makes it clear why we always want to see the entire chart since things aren't always what they seem. IP: Logged |

Just a quick guestion. Is Pullen on point with the calculations? Lara- Yours makes perfect sense. Seeing Stars- so is astro.com right or is it astro 123 that rings better truth? IP: Logged |

Unmoved - The Astrology community on LJ is very "OMG I AVOID LEOS UGH" and "Would a Scorpio and a Taurus get along?" and in every entry I reply "Astrology is more than just Sun signs" but some people still don't get it.IP: Logged |

And yes, going by Sun sign only is not the best idea. I met an Aries woman a few days ago on my table and she did NOT seem to display any of the typical Aries traits. She seemed more like a Cancer or Taurus.So, yeah, I agree! ------------------ Virgo Asc & Mars Gemini Sun Libra Moon (conjunct Pluto 0º in 2nd house) Gemini Mercury Cancer Venus And yes, i'm a guy!

Thanx! So according to astro.com my strongest planets are..1. Pluto 2. Jupiter 3. Venus That actually makes more sense to me And my strongest signs are exactly what I thought, except in different order.. 1. Pisces 2. Sagittarius 3. Scorpio Diff. between Scorp and Sag. is .1 % haha Water is my strongest element. ------------------ Capricorn sun / Scorpio rising / Sagittarius moon Mercury:: Sagittarius Venus::Scorpio Mars::Pisces IP: Logged |

My husband says I am more like my rising sign (Scorpio) than Gemini. But he lives with my Moon CNJ Pluto and knows me better than anyone else. Better than Walter Pullen. The percentage system (below) seems to relly heavily on houses. It would explain my results. It is interesting but doesn't realy match my internal life. What he says: Libra Taurus Sagittarius Aquarius Planets: Venus Jupiter Pluto Mercury Mars is low in influence according to this, but being conjunct my NN, and knowing my weaknesses better than anyone I think it should be higher. Venus? Maybe I have more charm than I give myself credit for.

Here are mine, as you can see the heavy air influence. And now that i've seen it, I was right about 2 out of 3 of my strongest signs, Gemini and Cancer.Planet wise, its Mercury, then Venus, then the Sun, then the Moon. Walter Pullen is right! ------------------ Virgo Asc & Mars Gemini Sun Libra Moon (conjunct Pluto 0º in 2nd house) Gemini Mercury Cancer Venus And yes, i'm a guy! IP: Logged |

Yup...The planets make more sense to me than the signs, although I guess I just don't think of myself as all that Saggy like, but come to think of it, I am the most broad-minded Virgo I know. lol. I am fixated on both the details AND the big picture. Planets: 1. Jupiter 2. Mercury 3. The Sun and Uranus are tied. Signs: 1. Sagittarius 2. Virgo 3. Aries I still think my Aries Moon overshadows everything, but that's just me. ------------------ Virgo Sun/Aries Moon/Scorpio Rising IP: Logged |

This thread, and my own experiences, are saying to me that the sun sign isn't so much about how we feel and act day to day, but really it's about what our deepest needs are. For example, when I say that I feel more Saggi and Scorpio with a bit of Taurus faded into the background - I don't feel like I go around acting like a Taurus, BUT at the same time over the past few years I've discovered that I feel better when I do pay attention to my Taurean needs, most of all the need for stability and comfort. When those needs are undermined *on a long-term basis* then my Scorpio moon goes haywire and my Saggi ascendant takes a nosedive. But when all is well in the background, I'm free to be as Saggi rising as I want and my Scorpio moon feels deeply good as opposed to Plutonically bad... Is anyone else like this?IP: Logged |

I'm an atypical Aries and this is how I have viewed myself for years. Though they say when a person is around 40 years of age, their Sun sign is stronger and more apparent.Sun In Aries 11th Moon In Cancer 2/3rd (Somedays I feel VERY Cancerian) Mercury in Taurus 11/12th Venus in Pisces 10th Mars in Capricorn 8th Jupiter in Saggy 6th Saturn in Taurus 12th Uranus in Libra 5th Neptune in Saggy 6th Pluto in Virgo 4/5th Gemini Rising, Aquarian MC My astrological signature is Capricorn or Virgo, Virgo if I count the Ascendant cause planet wise I have an equal number of Cardinal and mutable signs.
I have 4 earth planet in my chart and all my earth houses are full.....yet I'm not into money or materialistic. Somedays I feel my sign influences come out - like tonight I'm feeling very piscean and tommorrow I may feel like an Aries and the next Taurus..... ID IP: Logged |

Hmm, I get what GeminiLover is saying. As a Sun Gemini I have a core need for mental stimulation, but Gemini alone doesn't describe my attitude to relationships, work, etc. Thinking on this subject it occured to me that if you have no other planets in the same sign as your Sun, are you going to identify with it as much as the next person who has maybe Mercury and Venus alongside the Sun in the same sign? If you have a strong aspect from the Sun is that going to identify you with the sign it is aspecting? Or the planet? Say you have Sun CNJ Mercury in Virgo. This is going to suggest your inner self as represented by the Sun is going to be strongly linked to your thought processes. Virgo precision and critical analysis is going to be something you more strongly identify with than if your Mercury was in a neighbouring sign, and say your Sun was Square Jupiter CNJ Neptune in Sag. In that case you might be more idealistic and less inclined to closely examine fine details. Just a made up example. For a real-life one, my MIL is a Libra, but her son always thinks she is a Virgo. Well, she has Virgo Rising with Virgo Mars tucked away in the 12th house. In the 1st house she has Mercury CNJ Neptune in Virgo. The vibe is Virgo, but if you get to know her well, there is a deep-seated sense of Libra, which I know she identifies with, and that is the drive to do things to please others. It comes out in Virgoan form, providing service in a neat and orderly manner. You will get timetabled, you will be instructed, but at heart it is for the sweetest of reasons. IP: Logged |

Sun: Scorpio Moon: Leo Mercury: Scorpio Venus: Scorpio Mars: Aquarius Jupiter: Pisces Saturn: Sagittarius Ascendant: SagittariusI feel and act mostly like: --Leo --Capricorn --Sagittarius --Aquarius I identify with my Moon strongly, so much that people tend to think I'm a Leo. I get that often, I think the combo of Leo Moon/Sag AC overshadows my Scorpio Sun. Personally, I know and feel like a Scorpio especially when alone, but any other time it's Leo/Sag. I threw Cappy in there because I've oticed as I've gotten older that my natal Saturn/AC conjunction has become more prominent, and its influence has been overpowering my Uranus/AC tremendously. My progressed AC just entered Capricorn, and my progressed Saturn is 1 degree away from exact with my natal AC. So that said, I'm sure all of this accounts for my very Saturnine change in personality. ------------------ Sagittarius AC, Sun in Scorpio, Moon in Leo

where is the engine that generate these percentages? I don't see sign as separate in myself. My sun and mercury are in pisces conjunct, but that's it. I have a cardinal grand cross, which includes my libra moon conjunct jupiter. My ascendant lies scorpio, but not conjunct pluto, or anything. no planet in scorpio. some other points: aries venus cancer mars...IP: Logged |
