My 17 year old sister has always been so stingy and selfish. I remember reading in Linda's Sun Signs that Moon signs are stingy.I doubt it's to do with her age, she has always been like this. Today she was so heartless and really upset me, and then when I reacted badly she seemed smug and satisfied that she had triggered that reaction. I had done her chart a few years ago, and just did it again now. Sun in Cancer Moon in Scorpio and Aries rising.... !! IP: Logged |

BB~~I'm cancer and I have to say that I am far from stingy. I'm quite generous materially, emotionally, etc. I enjoy giving alot b/c that is my nature and would do w/o b/f someone I know or care about does w/o should they need/want something. Truth be known, I have a tendency to give to the wrong people and sometimes end up pi$$ed off, hurt or both b/c people take advantage of me. Having said this, if I'm crossed, hurt or both, you can forget me giving you anything. Do you and your sister have a good relationship? Does she have a reason to be like this with you b/c the majority of the cancers that I know are very generous.

Most Cancers I know are cheap ... so yes, a little stingy not really so much selfish ... Aries can be selfish as in self absorbed selfish but are generous and giving people if they like you ... Scorpios tend to be very stingy and very selfish ...so I go with Scorp in moon placement ...IP: Logged |

CancerGurl, my sister is not selfish and stingy with her friends. She has a large group of friends. My annoyance with my sister is that she has had total freedom in her teen years. My parents have allowed her to be a teenager, whereas when I was just being a teenager I was taken to 14 psychiatrists. I'm not sure whether it's her heavy influence over both of my parents (my Scorpio mum and Capricorn dad) or whether my parents learned their lesson after trying to mould me. I have a feeling she resents me because from her birth I did not see her presence as a gift, but a hardship for me. I saw her entrance into the world as taking more from me when I had already lost enough. I remember being ecstatic when I stood up in front of the entire school (I was in kindergarten) and told everyone about my new sister. I thought I was the luckiest person in the world, I will always remember how happy I was at announcing it at assembly, but that's the extent of my joy about her. But it's not her fault that my parents are the way they are. I also tried to end my life (http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum2/HTML/001503.html)the day before her 9th birthday. I received a letter from her when I was in hospital telling me about what she did that day and what my parents had done to try to make it a good day. I know it was a horrible birthday for her though. I was also very emotionally and at times physically abusive towards her and my brother. I recall a three year period where we three did nothing but constantly hurt each other. At the time I was taking out my anger at my parents on the children that they doted on. I feel thats why she dislikes me. She has no respect for me and often talks down to me as though she were 23 and I were 17. I don't know how much she comprehends of me, but considering I don't know her (or my brother) at all, I'd say her thoughts of me are non-existant. As mine are of her. I read in Love Signs that I have lessons to learn from Cancer. I'd say Cancer is the most mysterious sign to me. My youngest sister is a Pisces. She's 12. She's my angel, and even though I know she's confused about our family, she can handle it. It was at her age that I started to lose sight, and ended up in all sorts of places. I tend to go off on tangents don't I?!  IAmThat, CNO - I was dismayed to find my sister with Moon in Scorpio. I already have a love-hate relationship with my mum who has Sun Scorpio and Moon Scorpio. I can't remember her ascendant because I did it a few years ago.
I definitely get stung alot by my Scorpio mum and Cancer sister! God bless Pisces.

WTF is this some kind of threat or something?
Bleak Beauty None of the cancers I know are stingy at all so definitely not the cancer in her. The scorpio moons I know aren't stingy at all. Not even the sun signed scorpios.

I'm a Scorpio and have some people in my life with Scorpio Moon that I LOVE all the time... and then some that I tolerate most of the time but DISLIKE sometimes.It's time to look at the bigger picture. Understand someone from more planets in their chart if you think that Astrology is going to provide the answer you seek.  ------------------ Scorpio/Leo/Leo "All things are bound together.

isnt it obvious that no one placement in a chart can be said to be the "CAUSE" of something?first of all the QUALITIES of the sun signs are not "causes". cancer has the quality of being easily hurt, so does scorpio. but scorpio is vindictive and also the moons placement. aries is the impulsive quality, just do the math. its your sis, have some sympathy for her if she is miserable.

Hi all, I think we are all selfish ,one way to the other,depend on what position we are at. I am trying to look at me ,well from last year ,I now seen that I was so selfish arrogance ,pride ,well ,bad.I wasn't realize it before. anyway ,one step back will help ,in the matter of fact,we are trap inside a deep self denfence postion .we always wanted to be on the side that getting ,instead of giving without looking for things back. It is not easy at all, but I try.Hope you try ,too. with loves 14starsIP: Logged |
