i think people are confusing acquaintances with friends.

facebook call them friends, but a friend, i believe is more than some one you say "hello, how are you, what you been up to?"

lara, your ASC/chart lay out is always changing lol

Yeah, but how well do you KNOW 500 people? I mean, know, as in are close with them, talk to on the phone, know about their personality besides what you see on their FB statuses and info page?

There is a difference between aquaintances and friends, imo.

My sun is in my 10th house, in aqua. Ruler of 5th is in 10th. Pluto is in 5th. Saturn is conjunct AC. Moon and venus in 8th. I think it's a saturn-pluto thing -- both aare very strong in my chart as far as placements and aspects.

ok, i am trying to compile wht ppl are saying here
@Diana, this is the whole point. the question that wht is friend, who shld be on fb, not everyone will see it in the same light.

so far my compiled results show that venus in 8th will try to be too philosophical about social contacts....but so far i have only 7 or 8 datapoints. i will keep adding the feedback and we will see.

well, emma, a lot of us will never have 500 friends because we give serious consideration to who we FR and accept. In fact, I think what you think of as a friend has a whole lot to do with how many FB friends one will have as opposed to venus sign, obviously this has been the case so far.

Age will have a huge determination as well. Teenagers and people in college, generally, will have a lot more friends than older people, because those two age groups feel they have to have a lot of FB friends and they also meet a lot more people from large school networks.

well it can be a conscious decision as well as personality or whole demeanor.

some ppl are just more likeable and give the impression of being more open and welcoming

some ppl look more reserve, and also are more picky. as i deleted few ppl from my fb, cz i thought if i dont care abt these ppl why are they on my account. this is one approach not necessarily the right one. then there are other ppl who are more accepting of diversity in acquaintances, and wld not dwell too much abt who touched them at a meaningful level. social network is just a network and they dont necessarily try to find depth there. this is another approach not necessarily right or wrong

if we believe natal chart reflects on our attitudes and personality, then we shld see a link between attitudes and outcomes.
this is wht i am trying to see.

HMMM, I have 100 right now on myspace, and over 100 on FB, that one goes up every day.

I agree with, I think it was Diana who said that FB seems very fake. The day I signed up (probably around 2 months ago) I had 40 friends by the end of the night. It kinda felt like they were vultures waiting for new meat. I had to drag out my year book and look them up, cause I didn't remember 90% of the names.
It both amuses and disgusts me that MOST of these people were not my friends in school! They walked by with their noses in the air every day, and now they are sending me virtual hugs???? WEIRD. But on the other hand it is great for keeping in touch with family, and there are people from here that I really like that go there alot. The games and quizzes are fun as well.

MYspace, to me, is totally different. You can be much more creative there. You meet people through the sites you visit who have common interests as you, which I really like alot. Plus you can pimp out your profile to express yourself. Not much you can really do with white wall on FB.

Anyway, Venus in Sag is me. And my friend is Venus in Cap, he only has like 12 on his myspace, he says he uses it just to drop messages and exchange pics with family in other states. I don't think the Venus theory is reliable though. Cause I also know two Venus in Sag guys who have very little friends, they just use their myspaces to play games and listen to music.

Also don't forget to take into consideration how long a person has had their profiles up. You know with FB, people seem to seek me out most of the time. The only requests I've made were to some of the people here, who didn't know my real name or what I looked like.
With myspace, you have to be a little more aggressive and search out people, it is more difficult there with people using made up names and such. Anywho, they are both fun IMHO.

I have a Sag Venus in the 3rd house and I have about 120 friends, but they're all people I know. The ones I "know" the least are people I went to high school with that, if not for Facebook I would have no contact with and I'd barely think of them ever in life. Not even sure why they're on there actually, lol.

There is a trio of girls from high school I never liked much i'm thinking of in particular and they're all still friends, and they're all married with children about the same age. Their kids are really dopey looking for the most part. I like making fun of them when they post pictures of their kids playing together... I'm like "eeewww!!! gross!!!"... and they named their sons really stupid names like ~Brooklyn~ a la the Beckhams and one of them named her son ~Keanu~... come on? LOL... seriously? KEANU??? Really?

Yeah, I'm awful, lol. I just keep them on because they amuse me.

I am like Jane.
I am on no social network like myspace or whatever there is. my Venus is also in Capricorn.

Also, I think it depends what you see as "friend", I only consider a few people as friends, certainly not hundreds of them. I guess that must be my Venus in Cappy squaring Pluto in 11th house (in equal).

In equal Venus also rules my 11th house.

Venus in Taurus

I normally add people that are close to me college wise, family wise and friendship wise.

My entire facebook page is on private settings, you can't find me even if you searched for me, so I'm practically invisible.

I have about 50-60 people added including my former boss, which I typical don't add but he was nice to me.

Its, just I'm sick of people who add the wrong people and then post the wrong things on there facebook page and wonder why they get in trouble.

So, I like to stick to the notion that no one owns the internet its 100% public so don't post anything you whouldn't want people to see even if your on private settings, because there are hacks that can still get into your facebook page.

Also, don't add the wrong people

example, my mom was hiring post grad. students to work in the Goverment for permanant positions.

Then they decided to look at the facebook pages of the applicants, one of them had pictures of him smoking pot as his main page.

Not vary bright, makes me wonder kind of degree he got.

Emma_Duncan,

my Venus is on 6 Capricorn, my 2nd house (in equal system) starts on 7 Capricorn; in Placidus Venus is definitely in 1st house, but for equal I would count it as a 2nd house Venus, especially since it is in the same sign as my 2nd house cusp.

Venus in Taurus.
About 15 friends and 30 odd family members who live abroad.
I remember more than a 1000 friendly faces from school, college and work, most are born 1976 and 1977. NONE of them on my FB.
The 1977 born generation seems to be the most introverted generation of the modern age. Saturn in Leo plus the year Chiron was discovered.
I am surprised that best selling expert astrologers do not study this angle.

Emma, you should factor the Saturn in Leo aspect to enhance the accuracy.

I have those privacy settings, as well. I occasionally take them off, but they're enacted at the moment.

Idk, 500 friends doesnt seem that excessive, but then again I'm in college where I know a few people who have 1000 friends.

I have Venus in Pisces in the 10th (conjunct NN, square Saturn, Uranus, ASC). I have 497 friends.

I have Venus in Leo in the 8th house retrograding, um I have 55 friends on facebook and Im debating about deactivating it, like Diana said highschool/college kids would use social networks like a popularity contest and that crap just irks the hell out of me even though Im 18 and fall into that category.

I don't consider myself a people person or very friendly in the least..actually I strongly dislike people even friends and family, Im one of those people who can uproot quickly and cut people off in a minute. Thats why know one knew about where I was going to go to college, I don't want to be found..

Actually Im quite suprised I have 55, let alone other people who were trying to add me but I ignored, even more so suprised because I have Venus conjucting Jupiter and Mercury..well all in the 8th house..so yeah lol..no wonder Im such a hater XD..

oh i'd never add anyone who i thought was a biatch at school or whom i wasn't actually friends and hung out with.

I have friends on FB who add anyone who sends them a friend request... it's cool but it's not for me! I am completely invisible to FB unless you are a friend or a friend of a friend. I can't be dealing with sycophants nor strangers.

spool and teasel,

Me too. I am invisible.

Cheshire,

I think it's an 8th house thing, because you sound a bit like me with the FB.

Emma;

My Sun is in Sag, in the 8th,and ven/sag is in there too.

A guy I went to high school with is pitching a fit right now on FB because he tried to add another friend, and FB sent him a message that said, something like; We at FB think that 5000 is a sufficient amount of friends. So, he was trying to get people to back him in a petition to up the friend count. God, I wish I could remember his birthday, we went out a few times. But, point being, he is WAY into the Vampire Wars game. And I think he sort of took over the game, and that is how he got so many friends. I looked at them, and they are from all over the world. This man has never left Ohio. Any time of the night or day that I log on, he is there playing that game.
He opened a second account so he could add more "friends." lol.

Even if he is right it doesn't matter, facebook is to "glitchy" to support that many people on one facebook page.

Thats just a warning to stop people from adding more people then the facebook page can support.

If only people relized how bad are internet and telecomunications infrastructure is compared to India and China. There population demands a stable network.

I have 800 FB friends. I'm Venus in Scorpio in the 8th.

Only about 150 are people I actually know. The rest are very casual acquaintances or people I've added randomly with whom I play games.

::shrug:: I am not paranoid about Facebook. Although I express strong opinions about things, I don't have anything on there that would keep me from getting a job. And if so, then I wouldn't want to work there anyway. I do have personal things on there about my life (pictures, etc.) but no information revealing enough that I or my child could be stalked. My page is also private in that you won't be able to see any of my info if you're not a friend, but you can search on me if you know my name (which you would not unless I have corresponded with you, know you personally, or have already approved you as a friend). I am very lenient with approving friend requests--you never know when it might come in handy to know someone and I've "met" some wonderful and cool people on there.

I look at it as an interesting tool to find out what's going on with people I know and used to know, and as a tool to socially network--meet new people, be entertained, etc. Which is exactly what it's designed for.
