As I said it, I realized that *I* am OK with the same.

You think the one thing you DON"T have will be the answer whether a child, a man, love, a good mother(I still think that will do it lol),popularity, a prestigious career, beautiful house , your own beauty,social standing.

I've been reminding myself of this. For years, I was happily single. I knew that having a man in my life wouldn't make everything okay, and I knew how much trouble they can be, if there's a mismatch. The one bugaboo in that whole area, is that I'm running across more and more people (at least online), who have found someone who seems to be perfect for them, and it sometimes takes another chomp at that one area that's been eating away at me, slowly. I thought I'd met someone good for me, but that ended up not being the case (although they were important to me, as I'd felt they would be when I met them). They still are. Oh - and I don't begrudge anyone their happiness. I love to hear about the great relationships - especially when the people involved are really good people.

I need to re-read. My brain is not working lately.

I was okay with certain wrong moves, because I knew that my mother was doing the best she could, and I knew that I could handle a certain amount by myself - I am absolutely amazed at how I ended up going in the opposite direction, due to all of the confidence that I had inside me as a child.

I had some very negative experiences with my mother - I'd actually forgotten some of them. Last year, I asked her, "Were we really that bad as kids?" (in regards to certain things that happened, regarding punishment). She said that we weren't. I can't remember what her explanation was. But my mother was mostly great, unlike yours.

(In true Aries fashion, I tend to forget a lot of arguments/nasty things, if it wasn't an ongoing thing - like the time I'd forgotten how I got a hole in the plaster on my wall. It wasn't until I sat down on my bed, and looked towards my doorway, that it clicked and I *laughed*. I'd been arguing with my sister over the one portable heater in the house. The house heating had failed, and she was holed up with it in her room, as she had cramps. The rest of the house was *freezing*. Anyway, she finally stormed out of her bedroom, glared at me, and said something like, "You want it, you've got it!" and she threw it at me! I threw myself to the right, and the heater hit my wall. Ah, memories from an Aries/Capricorn sisterhood. *sigh* (I do her - and her Venus in Aqua is within six degrees of my 4th house cusp. Just getting the astro bit in there in bold. I keep forgetting that. Her Venus is sextile my Mercury.)

My household was very combative...mainly between my parents. Lots of fighting and arguing, didn't make for peacefulness. However when there wasn't fighting, I would say that as children we were encouraged to be active and diligent. My mother is an Aquarian with an Aries moon & Venus, and I believe an Aries Asc. She ran the household, and she was the person that raised us. I think my parents argued so much because she did not fall into the typical 'housewife subservient' role that was expected of her.

Playtime was big in my home, when the weather was good we were outside playing from sun up til sundown. My mother taught all of us how to ride our bikes. Intelligence was definitely encouraged, to excel and be on top of our school work.

What if their planets conjunct your IC?
That could be a strong soul connection.

Can't say that I get along with Leo more than any other Sun sign since I attract and am attracted to so few of them.

I do like Cancer Sun signs though, even if sometimes their laid back, speak only when you are spoken to and reveal very little attitude does tend to take the spunk out of me. I also have my Moon in Cancer.

As for Sagittarians, i dont like them..but i dont not like them. I dated a sag once and we did not get along at all, probably because i have absolutely no fire in my chart. Im mainly earth 7/10 planets in earth signs. but i have a 9th house stellium so i do admire their spiritual side...

hey guys i have a question, i recently learned that your 4th house cusp sign is supposed to be your mothers sign, but mine isnt. My mother is an Aquarian but my 4th house cusp is Sag...? i just wanted to know why it didnt work out in my chart?

---

It would be wonderful if Astrology was that cut and dry, but unfortunately it isn't (which is why it's more of an art than a science). The 4th house can represent your mother, OR it can represent your father OR your homelife/past/childhood in general. Not only that, but just because your mother is an Aqua Sun doesn't mean that she doesn't have strong Sag influences (like me... if I were your mother your chart would make sense because Sag is the strongest sign in my chart even though my Sun is in Aquarius). Where is Jupiter in your chart?

Taurus is on my IC.
I guess you can say i'm conflicted with them.

They have a stuburn side that drives me insame, but then they show a careing side also.

Espically how taurus have "intuitive powers" on Gemini's and are good at paying attention to things.

All admit I've had my moments were I have gotten upset over there lack of flexablity and then they turn around with a nice polite smile or here I baked you something.

All the while not knowing how upset I actualy am.

Plus my venus is in taurus also.

With that said they annoy and frustrate me but at the same time are likeable in other ways.

Heya, Ben! Long time no see! How are ya? I can relate a lot to what you've said. My home life has been VERY strict, very traditional, "young ladies don't behave like that, it's not proper", "you can't hang out with him/her, they are a bad influence", "you have to be home by 10 o'clock", "as long as you live under my roof you will do as I say".
Heh... luckily I left my parents' house at 18 and it was the best thing I ever did. I moved 500 km away from them, and since I moved, my relationship with them has improved. My parents NEVER moved after I was born, they never travelled outside my country, I can't for the life of me get them to travel anywhere, they are very proud of their traditional background and are, in general, strict, stubborn and traditional. Oh, they also hate eating at restaurants, always criticize the food there; in my home there has always been plenty of food, that is why my whole family is overweight. The first and most important thing my mother asks me on the phone is "what did you eat today, you're not starving, are you?". Just from time to time I'd apreciate a question regarding my peace of mind or the rightness of my spiritual path...
The part where I hate that is shown by Chiron in the 4th... My childhood has been the saddest period of my life. No need to get into details.

My parents are definitely shown in my birth chart. IC is in Taurus with Chiron there, Mom is Taurus Sun and a nurse. MC is in Scorpio with Jupiter and Uranus there, dad is Aquarius, with a Scorpio side that I will not get into.
