quote: I don't like when a sign gets picked on where broad generalizations are made but...I will say, in my personal experience, I have known two compulsive liars. These were not just occasional liars but the "everything that comes out of their mouth is a lie" kind of liars, where it was so extreme they needed serious psychiatric help. Both were Libras.
You aren't the only one who've seen this compulsive side of Libra. Neptune, planet of deceit rule the #7 in Numerology, and Libra is the 7th sign...Food for thought. IP: Logged |

Pire,It’s quite disappointing to see someone with your talents not use them through this forum. With your intelligence and knowledge, you really could be a shining light for everyone here, and especially the newest members who are trying to learn. But instead, you attack one of our own, who does share his intelligence and knowledge, who spends hours researching at least 99% of the questions asked of him (probably 100%), who goes above and beyond to makes us think, to help us grow, to share what he knows, and to teach all of us who so desperately want to learn. I have probably paid for one actual reading in the past two years. Now compare that to the hundreds of questions I have asked him, and the hundreds of emails I have sent him, answers to which have always been given freely, without charge. When have you ever helped others? Something else you might want to consider. Often when you don’t like another person, when there is something about them that irritates, annoys, or makes you angry....typically that is something about yourself you don’t like. Might be time to look within yourself to find the answer as to why you're projecting onto IQ.

I also don't think that this approach to astrology is a dead end. Astrology is a map of potentials, and just as you can see someone's leadership potential, empathy potential, creative potential, you can see someone's lying potential. I don't think it's deterministic because I believe in free will, but I definetely think you can see if someone may have a tendency to lie. The reasons for lying can be different: a person with a strong Neptune influence might lie not with bad intentions, but because there fantasies are so strong that they believe them. Another aspect (I'm not sure which type, maybe a Saturn affliction) might lie because "the end justifies the means", etc. There are different types of liars. If astrology doesn't help us see potentials, if we don't use it to identify negative aspects and work on them to become a better person, than what's the point? This is my point of view, I'm not implying everyone should think this way.IP: Logged |

people with hard Neptune aspects could also be disorganized,get confused/disoriented easily,spacy and be absentminded and have problems with linear things like linear time and sequences. That could mislead others into thinking that they are lying or being deceptive. I understanding all that from being like this myself with my Moon square Neptune and Mercury parallel Neptune. I also have Moon oppose Saturn/Neptune midpoint and Mercury conjunct Sun/Neptune midpoint as well as Mercury square Geocentric South Neptune Node in Right Ascension. Raymond

So true Glaucus.. I can be fickle and spacey which leads to misinterpretation. I totally see that about neptune.IP: Logged |

I am a believer that anybody can dislike somebody not because we have something wrong with us. I dislike white supremacists, but I don't share their racial prejudices. I am a believer in racial equality. I dislike men that beat women, but I don't beat women. there are many other examples. I also believe that its possible that a person might dislike another person because they might have certain biological interactions that reflect in the synastry aspects.....which can be so-called personality clashes. I also constantly read about people that dislike certain people because they don't like their energy that they believe that they are psychically picking up or have certain gut feelings about.
so I don't agree that we dislike people because we dislike what is inside us and that we're projecting.
other than that, I believe that what pire said to IQ is uncalled for.
I just want to give an alternative viewpoint about the reason why people dislike certain people. Raymond

i have to agree about libras, the ones i have met, and been involved with, they are almost scary how they lie and they are so smooth with it. LARA WHERE ARE YOU! lol! i think we had a small discussion/rant about this a few years ago about our exes. i would say mine is a charming, deceptive psychopath. also a sexy liar!! whew! he also had mars in libra and venus in scorpio, and i dealt with him in my venus square pluto transit. go figure. pure hell. he even had my family believing him!! true master. i have a friend who was in a similar situation. her mans sun was in scorpio and venus in libra. how 'bout it. scorpios are awesome*******IP: Logged |

Actually, it's coz of iQ's help that I was able to understand many things. He never charged us anything, even if we ask complex questions that requires careful (and long time) analysis (in my case, a good number of them *feels guilty for the trouble*).An astrologer is also a human that has his/her own life too. Yet someone who can give so much of his/her precious time to freely help others without anything in return is truly selfless and respectable. We all have our own beliefs and points of view about astrology, so that it's inevitable that there would always be some disagreements. Yet it's important to keep the respect and politeness when sharing our opinions, so that we can all learn from each other. IP: Logged |

The genuine support of every knowflake who values my humble contributions is priceless. I am a father, what you all have written is going to make my kids happy about me, and that is also priceless. For such priceless friends, I will tirelessly contribute astrology solutions whenever I can. Coming to this ABSOLUTELY VALID topic, one of the best examples of people who have been able to overcome negative effects of Moon sq Neptune and Pisces Moon effects is our own Glaucus. From Self Confusion [Neurodivergence manifestation?] to Self Awareness [comfort with one's views, knowing the right tools of growth, application of learning and now the next leap of forming a non-profit organization] is very encouraging and inspiring for anyone who has difficult aspects.
We have got feedback about lying from some Librans. Again, for those specific cases could it be because of the other afflictions further confusing a Libran mind already struggling to balance many viewpoints ? Many lie from fear, fear stems from insecurity, insecurity is heavily Lunar and now I am ranting like Yoda... I would add Libra Sun or Moon in 2nd House or 6th House afflicted by Neptune as another potential for Un-intentional tendency to lie. But not to deceive. Deception is a totally different ball game. Deception is for gain. Lying is for escaping. Not telling the whole truth is also deception. Pluto-Moon afflictions and Asteroid SWINDLE afflictions have to be the "winners" here.

Glaucus: ____________________________________"people with hard Neptune aspects could also be disorganized,get confused/disoriented easily,spacy and be absentminded and have problems with linear things like linear time and sequences. That could mislead others into thinking that they are lying or being deceptive. " ___________________________________ That is very profound. I have Sun-Neptune conjuction by less than a degree. I can be very absent-minded, just the other day I lost my bus ticket and could not recall at all where I left it. I also have my "moods" of when to clean my room and lately, lets just say, as long as I find my way to the bed, I am happy( disgusting I know) I didn't realise what a profound effect Netune has on my Sun. It is suprising to me that I never found drugs appealing, but movies and games(in that form of ecapism) is great. IP: Logged |

This subject is also very important to me cause i have a person in my family who constantly lies...i love her dearly and i know she doenst do that to harm or to deceit. i jst wanted to understand why she does that,cause seems that she always have been like this...could lying be a patological thing? her placements are: -Moon cj IC aqua square venus - sun/marc/merc GEM IN 8TH. - Sun/marc square Uranus/Pluto in the 11th - Lie in 5th skuare Neptune - Swindle square DNA - Neptune square DNA ..i dont know what im looking for...but maybe the asteroids tells something.

This is one of those areas for me where astrology can be very general or very specific. We have people claiming that they are honest. Sure, I'd say most people are. But are you saying that you have NEVER told a lie?I think everyone lies to some degree for some reason at some time. The varying degree is irrelevant, it's still a lie - even if it was for a good or justifiable reason or cause. Maybe astrology can show us the ways in which people lie or deceive? But I genuinely believe that everyone lies. IP: Logged |

PAyes i agree..everybody lies but depens on the lie and how many times we lie  there are those like "no..you´re trully beautiful" when someone we love is trying new clothes,or " im ok" when someone asks us what is the matter and we dont want to say... but there are those other kind of lies.that a person sistematically does,everyday eevn in little things...that is why im thinking that maybe there are charts showing that a person might be a pathological lier...?something which the person maybe dont do counsciously?not to harm or deceit but maybe it is part of their nature?

I don't volunteer information generally, unless there is a purpose to sharing information, then I gladly share. I will answer a question as honestly as possible, without playing mind-games, according to what a person asked me, but I will not elaborate unnecessarily unless more elaboration is needed for me to be understood properly. This is with-holding information to some, therefore it is deception to some. To me it is not.

Unmovedi know what you mean..i have merc in 12th and it is true-i tend do hide my own thoguths.it is a matter of insecurity. but that is not necessarily lying or deceip.it is a way of keeping our things to ourselves,it is our private nature to be so... although i really want to improve myself and start to be more open,more confident in what my ideas and ideals are. merc in 12th influences us to be reserved and secretive.
