rosy cheeks on an african or asian? ok...

well my kids are half asian and pale and they don't have rosy cheeks due to the fact that they are light brown not pinkish white!

Not sure what you are asking here..

LOL. Nope.
Kinda hard to tell. A lot of the astro stuff isn't physically applicable to all cultures/races.

Cappys do have good facial structure, I've found. Almost Roman in appearance - that's something I've found across the board. Distinct chins, especially.

Well I'm a Cappy Ascendant and I do have a pointed eagle's beak nose, but none of the rest....

I think most of the descriptions should be modified according to the audience they're tryna sell it to. So if its an international audience, they should probably leave out things that are race-specific. *shrugs*

Thanks,

Are most definitions of astrological characteristic written from a Eurocentric viewpoint?

Is there a need for a more inclusive tone to articles about astrological features?

this is funny, yea these things are based on European features. but there are differences between Asians and Africans too, some have darker or paler skin tones, some (i'm Asian so i can tell well about them) have deep set eyes, rosy cheeks, curly hair, more tanned look... if you compare Russian Asians and Oceanian Asians, they look pretty different. we all have nice brown eyes tho!

Im a Capricorn sun with Scorpio rising..Pluto and Venus conjunct the ASC.

I do have a somewhat pointed nose, it is kinda long, my eyes are deep set and blue, my hair is NOT soft due to years of abuse LOL, and I have a ruddy complexion (said to be common w/ scorp rising)..

Ive heard that Caps can have skin problems..I have had acne problems in the past, but got that under control..however I know two Cap suns both with Cap rising and they both have BEAUTIFUL skin (one is my sister)..so who knows.
