Hi Everyone,I'm curious to find out if any of you have a particular sun sign in your life that you have learned the most from, and why have you learned the most from that sign? The reason I'm asking is that I've recently realized that with the addition of some old and new Pisces friends, I've really learned the most from both Pisces and Scorpios. Pisces I respect for their tranquil nature, and though they are generally content to float about without any judgement or criticism, they do state the truth in a way that causes me to think about it for DAYS. Scorpios are usually just very knowledgeable, insightful, and very focused on their path. I also learn a lot from air signs, but usually in a way that is more reactionary than absorbing. Air signs (mostly Aquarius and Gemini) often leave me with a bad taste in my mouth... But there's something to be learned from that too. I respect them as they are and realize I will not ever change their true natures, but I recognize that the different ways that they think and do things can have its benefits. Now... I suspect I learn the most from both water and air signs because I have a LACK of both of those elements in my chart. So what about you all? Is there any sign (or sign placement) in particular that you feel that you have learned the most from? IP: Logged |

well, i learn from aries rising to just be myself, and that the nasty side to me is NOT going to be as badly received as i suspect, since i have libra rising. I probably learn the most from fire and air suns. Surprisingly, how to be more tactful. Haha. i am pretty naive and blunt and dont consider myself to have the best social skills, so i learn from them, but especially air, how to NOT be all of those and show my true personality by being more charming and cautious.It's amazing how much air signs have contributed to my personality. All air signs, and one fire sign that I can remember. Fire signs feed my natural impulsiveness and tendency to not think before i speak, so i do learn a lot more from air signs. i have sun in cancer, leo moon, and libra rising, and i actually met someone with gemini sun, leo moon, and libra rising which was strikingly similar to me in my naivety and transparency (neither of us can be anything but ourselves and we're way too transparent with other people, but my cancer sun makes me even more so this way than he is.) I lack air and earth in my chart, but there's actually nothing i've ever learned from an earth person. I am drawn to air or fire sun people with lots of air and earth, though. IP: Logged |

iv learned a lot from cancers especially how to handle emotions during difficult periods. or just by internalizing stuff. the rest of my friends are mars pluto and saturn in scorps so we don't really do the emotions thing very much. earth signs especially taurus/ capricorn teach me and are still teaching me how the world works.

I learn the most of people whom I fall in love (whatever their sign be, but most of the time they have Sagittarius, Gemini, cancer or Taurus placement in their chart) IP: Logged |

I've learnt most from Virgo suns, because they don't exactly hold back on criticism. Freaks me out, but then again, forces me to have a good look at myself.IP: Logged |

super Cap. i didn't know it would be possible to feel so much pain, and joy. sometimes both at the same time. i have no regrets even though there's a lot more pain than joy. the price is much too high but now i know if it were easy i would have never learnt anything.*salute* (i still like Caps on the other hand, my childhood friend is a Cap who likes me unconditionally. there's never drama, affection is inferred, and we understand each other without so many words ever uttered.

Aquarius~Being a Pisces sun, and highly Aquarian, I have learned detachment, letting go, being in the now....Being a Pisces sun I really needed to learn all of the above, and the class is not over yet! IP: Logged |

Scorpio's and Cancer's. That would be my Saturn/Mars/Plut (Scorp) and my Descendant (Cancer)Scorpios show me myself. How obsessive and yet powerful I am. How focused and determined I can be at getting what I want and how to honor and enjoy my sexuality. Cancers have shown me how moody I am and how important family is (4th house Moon). And how to honor and respect my emotions as they arise. I can surely and often do repress my emotions but Cancers know how to express in the moment. I love that freedom. ------------------ my blog IP: Logged |

This has been fun to read. quote: Surprisingly, how to be more tactful. Haha. i am pretty naive and blunt and dont consider myself to have the best social skills, so i learn from them, but especially air, how to NOT be all of those and show my true personality by being more charming and cautious.
Yeah, I do think air signs are great for learning a bit more tact and the ability to be charming. I find that there's a place for charming and there's a place for bluntness. I tend to miss it sometimes. quote: iv learned a lot from cancers especially how to handle emotions during difficult periods. or just by internalizing stuff.
Yeah, Cancers are great at internalizing and processing emotions. They also have a good read on the emotional states of other people (usually). quote: I've learnt most from Virgo suns, because they don't exactly hold back on criticism. Freaks me out, but then again, forces me to have a good look at myself.
Hahaha... I am a Virgo (and yes we are good at being critical), however, I think I've learned more from Pisces in that respect just because they are so easy-going that when they throw out a criticism (which is usually more of an observation than anything) it catches me off guard and I think about it for awhile. They're so nonchalant about it. Virgos are usually good for helping you to figure out what in your life could be made better/easier/more efficient. quote: Being a Pisces sun, and highly Aquarian, I have learned detachment, letting go, being in the now....
Yeah, I feel like I learn a lot about detachment from Aquas. I NEED detachment since I've got so much fire that I'm constantly RAWR about things. quote: Scorpios --about Power Aries--about assertionThere is a difference lol
Yes there is. Scorpios own their power, whereas Aries will assert their point of view when it's important to them, regardless of public opinion or pleasantries. quote: The biggest who I WANT to learn from is earth, esp Virgos~~~So, so many in my life.
Is it just that you don't understand the Virgos in your life and therefore don't feel like you can learn from them since they are so different? Or is it just that you don't know them and their inner workings well enough to learn anything appreciable from them? Or am I way off? IP: Logged |

I've learned from all the mutable suns (even Virgo) to accept my laidback nature and go with the flow....Sag especially, which is my Saturn Sign (so its karmic). I have alot of mutable energy myself but its always reprimanded by people with heavy fixed or cardinal energy for various reasons. IP: Logged |

I've learned the most from people who have Venus conjunct Pluto in a feminine sign.. people who have Venus in Scorpio and people who have Mars in Scorpio!I have Venus opp Pluto on my Nodes. These people have taught me how to love - in a nutshell. Their Suns have been varried ^ but Leo/Virgo/Libra are the most important.. (my grandmother - Libra, my mum - Leo, my ex Libra, the love of my life - Leo, my childhood friend - Leo, my grandfather - Virgo, my aunt - Libra, current friend - Virgo). My Pluto is a singleton in social signs (in Scorpio). Maybe that's why I attract these suns.. plus being Aries- Libra is opposite so conventional wisdom has it I'd learn a lot from them anyway).

I like your question, makes me think about north node placement. Mine is in Aquarius and I wish I knew more of them. I tend to feel held back by leos and have always wondered if the nodal axis is responsible. Having said that, I think I have learned the most from Sag, my favorite sign. I love gem and am enchanted by cancer but my Sag friends are the savviest by far. I can't explain it to myself very well but it might be due to my 5th, which is ruled by sag with jupiter in there in dour capricorn. IP: Logged |

I have jupiter in gemini and can't say I've really learned much from geminis. Actually, I've learned a lot more from libras and aquariuses. I also have pisces on the fifth with no planets there and haven't learned from pisces either since they're usually just like me lol I've always thought the reason why i connect so well with aquariuses was because of my aqua north node. But actually, I feel like i've learned the most from libras. I think it's because of my ascendant. They are the way I fully want to appear to the world. IP: Logged |

Aries, they taught me to not think about things too much and just go for it and take risks, to just wing it and win on enthusiasm and new ideas and staying in the moment. I've met the men mostly in my life, hardly ever the women, but the men have been amazing to me and we always get on really well, I just adore them, mutual admiration from the beginning.IP: Logged |
