Do you think you have a realistic opinion of who people in your life expect you to be ?Do they accept you as who you are ? If not- what Astrological placement would you blame that for ? I have sun in scorpio in 5th house and I'm kind of paranoid- it's as if people in my life have either wanted me to be either really successful or a lot of fun to be with and energetic or just really different and crazy.. Recently I can't be just calm and normal around other people I meet. I have to be enthusiastic about everything I talk about/ that's going on. It's not that they wouldn't love me if I acted otherwise, it's just that I feel the pressure, not sure if it's from the inside or outside though. I mean, I am usually quite energetic, but lately it's as if it's something I created, a bit tiring. IP: Logged |

how interesting, I have Taurus Sun in the 4th and I feel like I am obliged to take care of them and mother them! looks like a house position dictates what we think we are expected to be ... hmm maybe it's my Cancer DSC thoughIP: Logged |

Swirl-kitt, your words remind me of an old favorite poem. At this right now moment my 12th Sun feels it's expected to share..,
When you die to the old life
you must bury it well
or you'll stumble on
with the corpse of your old self
strapped to your back.
Bury it well and do your grieving.
Set right what can be set right
with those you hurt
and those who hurt you.
Give up the souls you've stolen.
Reclaim what was stolen from you.
Then walk on and don't look back. Others will dig up your corpse.
Not only enemies and abandoned lovers
but your very best friends.
They'll exhume your bag of bones
and lash it to your shoulders
to prove you haven't changed.
You'll be dragged, down and back.
You'll need a second wake,
a second burial. The grave-robbers will come for you
again and again
to chain you to your dead self
until you are changed so utterly
you can only be seen
by those who have changed their eyes.
You'll vanish into the sunlit spaces
where those who cling
to the ghost of what you were
can't find you anymore.

I have Sun in Gemini in the fifth house. People expect me to entertain them all the time and rescue them from tough situations. IP: Logged |

Maybe we send out the vibes of what we are (Sun in a certain sign and house), so that people would sense that and gradually expect us to be what they sense us as. Although sometimes I wonder if certain things still tend to happen in the way they happen even if we don't send out any vibes about ourselves (which makes me wonder if we often get into certain pattern of situations coz of how we are, or simply coz these things just happens).IP: Logged |

With my Cappie Asc, I think sometimes people expect me to be a lot more serious than I really am. I mean, actually (with 8th house solar stellium, Leo Sun) the real me loves PASSION and INTENSITY, but that's different from seriousness/obligation. The people I'm most compatible with seem to see my fun side right away, though. It's more people I am mismatched with who have a wrong idea. Example: an aquaintence who wanted to set me up on a blind date just assumed that I am looking for a marriage/LTR right now with someone who is highly successful in his career, mature, and responsible...when in reality, I am looking to have crazy monkey sex with someone who is physically beautiful, spontaneous, and exciting.

hi swirl-kitt, i think i get what you are you trying to say. it's like everyone has their usual self, but sometimes their usual self changes or evolves and becomes another usual self for a certain period of time. it's like sometimes you fear to be that because you don't want people to question you of why you've suddenly changed when you always were like that. everyone is at their core who they really are and that never changes. however, everyone also has a persona or personas. it's okay to switch or go from one or another. i think i am who i am and what people expect me to be is what i've conditioned them to expect me to be for them. i'm very changeable i find. one week i can be very outgoing and the next week i'm antisocial. but i'm secure with switching my moods suddenly because i already have the people i care for and trust on my side. like for example, i'm known to be the nice one and understanding one. but sometimes i get angry, just like everyone else does, and it shocks people....the people who don't really know me that is. i don't care about those people. if they're shocked well then let them be shocked. but my real friends and my family, they know that's still me. i'm not suddenly a mad, angry person or was always pretending to be the nice one. i've always had the capacity to be angry just i'm normally calm and cool. don't be afraid to be yourself and to feel how you feel in any given moment. the people who matter to you won't hold it against you.
