I think the reason (there are many) for adopting this vega–lifestyle has to be considered when looking for a chart-indicator.

In my case I really CAN’T eating meat because I feel it’s disgusting to eat something that feels, lives, relieves nature and consists of flesh, blood & bones like human beings. So, for me it feels much the same as cannibalisme. I do not have a real idealistic view or at least my vegetarianism didn’t develop by it. I was very young when I discoverd the dead of animals in meat and than I got this lugubrious associations of their going with flesh & fell through meat mills. I cannot relate the dirt I felt/feel to a real idealistic view..
(I’m vegetarian from the age of 6/7, my parents always ate meat).

In my chart the Ruler of the Ascendant (Virgo) = exact conjunct the ascendant, square to Neptune = at least overactive imagination!

strong water, Neptune energy runs in my family. well..we're a family of meat eaters
my maternal grandfather with Sun in Cancer and Moon in Pisces worked as a butcher before. He was a heavy meat eater.

the same aspects for vegetarians might also be the same aspects for people that are into the healing arts and metaphysical subjects.

I have a shaman friend that eats meat. He told me that he needs his protein.

There are people with strong Virgo influences that aren't vegetarians.

I have a Virgo Ascendant myself.

also my Sun is in the Virgo constellation even though my Sun is in the tropical zodiac. Virgo was strongly linked to the Greek goddess of the harvest,Demeter by the Greeks.

Ceres is the dwarf planet that is connected to food,nurturing,parent-child matters. It was named after the Roman Goddess of the harvest.

I'd check aspects to Ceres. Some astrologers believe that hard aspects to Ceres could indicate possibility of eating disorders.

Moon in Pisces square Neptune,and I eat meat.I never had a problem with it. Heck, could eat a whole big porkchop by the time I was 2.

I don't know why people would come to the conclusion about Pisces in regards to being vegetarians.

vegetarians can have strong influence of all zodiac signs.

actual fish actually eat other fish. shark is a fish,and it's a natural predator that will eat not only fish but some mammals too.

I stopped eating meat when I was 7, because I almost choked on steak and developed a phobia of things with a meat texture. I started having fish again 10 years later, but other than that, I still don't eat meat.

For me, it's not connected to animal rights so much as health (although I do love animals). I've always had an extremely restricted diet due to food allergies, and I've been eating a raw food diet since I was 16.

But the die-hard veggies I know (whose charts I know) do have lots of Sag and Pisces going on, most often moons.
