That's a good way to put the question..

I can completely differentiate between my philosophy on life/my thinking process/my beliefs -- and who I am.

I do think like Pisces 100% -- But I am not a Pisces.

Both my Mercury and Jupiter are in Pisces. It's a bit like being an expert on Piscean things and having a love of Piscean things. My favourite books growing up were written by Pisces authors. But this is a detached knowledge/understanding.

I can talk Piscean things (Merucry). I can preach Piscean lessons (Jupiter). This comes naturally.
But I am not a Pisces myself.

*I love taking my time. I love when I have those mornings where I can just sit for an hour and drink coffe and wake up.
But I can hall ass on the mornings I have to be at work early. (I just wont look so put together)
*I also really like my stuff. And I don't really like my friends borowing my stuff. Because I like my stuff so much, is one of the main reasons.
*And people say that they like to hear my voice. (Well thats really a Merc Taurus thing I think)
And this girl told me that she thinks I could be a phone sex person. lol
*Oh and I also don't like BS and games in relationships.
*And I don't like to rush into a lot of desisions.

"Gemini Rising and Mercury in Taurus

Your ruling planet Mercury is in the steady and patient sign of Taurus. Your mind is retentive and you are slow to form an opinion but stubborn once your mind is made up. You are meant to bring abstract concepts and ideas down to earth for practical application."

yes indeed. lol

I know sun determines the sign yu are but wouldnt mercury be a more accurate definition of what sign yu are?

=) How funny, I've often wondered the same thing, though my sun and mercury are in the same sign.

Communication means so much.
Sometimes good Mercury aspects with someone can rescue an otherwise difficult relationship simply because the people can be open/honest and discuss things.

PLANET astrology says that Mercury = Communication, Venus = Partner, Moon = father.

HOUSE astrology says that 3rd house = communication, 7th house = partner, 4th house = Father.

Each house meaning has areas of life divided into 12 groups. With 1st as personality, and 3rd as communication, there are clear differences and boundaries that show up in a natal chart. Maybe you are Gemini rising, which means you have the personality (MASK) of a Gemini. This is your personality only.
With Gemini rising, you would have Leo on the 3rd house of communication, which means you think like a Leo.
