The virgo is me makes me 'smart' in dealing with money, but I am pretty generous too? Might be my aries rising? My libran stellium seems to love showering gifts on loved ones but my virgo side keeps me realistic too.What aspect or sign would make somebody a cheap arse lol? IP: Logged |

Venus in Virgo - stingy? No, I have this and I'm stupidly generous with most things. My ex was a Sag, Cancer Moon con Saturn and he was stingy and I know a Capricorn who measures everything that gets given out. I'm wondering if the culprit could be Saturn? Virgo is efficient but I wouldn't say stingy or generous. Leo is sad to be one of the most generous signs (in general) but I think it depends on the intentions of the generosity, many people give because they want something back whether it's a favour, praise or money itself.

My double Cappie with moon in Cancer soon to be ex husband is quite stingy in certain circumstances and definitely petty. He has been known to hide a birthday cake (for me) in the closet until my mother leaves so as not to have to share. But his Cancer sun friend and colleague gets the lifetime award for stinginess. If you ask, he will deny that he has an extra can of soda as its sitting in his desk drawer (the one he got for free at the office pizza party). He does stuff like that all the time. Its a running joke. I think Cancer tinged people in my life have often shown a "carefulness" with money or possessions. I am sure this is not a universal trait amongst them. IP: Logged |

2nd house Chiron....veeery stingy people ...Also Capricorn...and I know it, cause I'm one, and I can be pretty stingy at times, but it changes, though, probably cause of the aforementioned generous Sag Venus... I have a friend who's very generous, Venus is her dominant planet (exalted too, and in the 7th house), might be that for generosity??IP: Logged |

interesting that Betty Boop mentions Jupiter. i have Jupiter in Cap. and i have Venus in Taurus. i know exactly who is worthy of my generosity and who isn't. generally i'm not generous at all (is it Jupiter?) but those who 'deserve' it think my thoughtful gifts/gestures quite shocking. not in any particular order: practicality, thoughtfulness, quality, aesthetics and substance. the earth suns i know (of) are a lot like me... don't want to part with their money but when it comes to giving only the best will do.

Then, Ami, one night, he was p*ssed off at my mother - just in general - and she came over for dinner and I opened a bottle of wine he had gotten as a gift. We all drank glasses of the wine, and I was about to offer her another, to finish off the bottle. Well, before I could get to it, he grabbed the bottle, put it to his mouth, and did a chug-a-lug. All so she wouldn't want any more. That's classic Crabby-husband material.IP: Logged |

I absolutely hate stingy, miserly people. I am not rich, but darn it I'm generous. Earth signs are naturally more thrifty, but especially virgo and cappy. My sister is one of the most greedy, stingy people I have ever known. She hates nothing more than to have to share Anything at all. She wouldn't give u a glass of water if u were dying. She wasn't raised like this. Curiously she is a leo sun, but moon is scorp and saturn in affliction to both. Saturn squares her moon 0 deg. I heard moon saturn can be miserly.IP: Logged |

Cancer is very stingy, maybe even more than cappy. Moon is cancer esp, was married to one, oh god so selfish and stingy and petty. This man has 4 kids and wont buy any of them so much as a birthday present, much less pay support, yet he has money and will buy himself such things as like a 5,000 drum set. And no he is not a professional musician. IP: Logged |

Remember it is a poor economy and those who, in better times, would LOVE to treat others well simply, REALLY....S-E-R-I-O-U-S-L-Y can not afford it, plain and simple. I've been in a situation where I would have liked to do something generous but just did not have the money. I can see how it might be misconstrued as me being cheap, but, in all honesty, my hourly wage just is not high enough. In these times, the gap increases between rich and poor, and the current gap between older generations wealth (middle age) and younger generation (20-somethings) is highest ever but not many people know this.I mean, people at bars are like "wow, you don't ear 20 bucks an hour?" I've been lucky to meet some very generous people who have helped me, including a special person on LL. I WANT to be in a position where I can do the same for a young, passionate person who has maybe been dealt a rough hand. I hope I can. I am not cheap, I am not frugal by choice. I am frugal by situation and if someone wants to judge me as being cheap, go find some other $20/hr man to cling your claws into. I just don't have the dough to even treat myself as well as I want. But I am good at being frugal because of low salary. It is not cheap, it is savvy, smart with money and resourceful. IP: Logged |

NOT TRUE, had an aquarian friend over a lot this summer who was a tattoo artist. he was nice enough to go out of his way to make sure i got my free tattoo for letting him do his business in my house. overall, i'd say he was a pretty generous guy. i've seen all of the signs be stingy beyond belief but i'd have to say capricorn is the worst. these are people who will if you need a ride, will drop you off(on their way) and make you walk the rest, instead of taking a couple extra minutes to get you where you gotta go, thats just an example. i've known generous capricorns too, but there seems to be a pattern of crumminess and capricorns. scorpio too, if they dont know you-they have no problem saying no-no problem at all. out of all the signs, cancers are definitely the most giving. taurus also. depending on the aries, he can be extremely giving too. i've noticed a pattern of selfishness in all signs really, but i don't think i've ever met a cancer who wasn't willing to give of what he or she had. ------------------ Aries Sun Sagittarious Moon Scorpio Ascendant(1st decan) Mercury in Aries Venus in Aries Mars in Taurus Jupiter in Aquarius Saturn in Scorpio Uranus in Sagittarious Neptune in Capricorn Pluto in Scorpio Chiron in Gemini North node in Taurus(ox) "Nature speaks for itself" IP: Logged |

To HippiChick: That's so funny, because my two favorite girlfriends are both Aquarian and one of them gives out food and candy and baked goods very freely (she does have a Cancer Asc). The other one, whose Asc I don't know, is extremely generous in extending her help to all who need it (i.e., pro bono legal work) and has the house in the neighborhood which all the kids want to go to b/c food and goodies are doled out very generously. I have never seen either of these ladies being even faintly stingy. Which makes me think it's all in the aspects. Must look at the entire chart. I don't know enough Aquarian men to weigh in with an opinion about patterns of stinginess, etc. IP: Logged |

Hey, hold your head up high, my man. Anyone who doesn't understand your point doesn't deserve you. Stop being bitter. When the economy turns around, things will shine brighter for you. Been there before. IP: Logged |

Hi EveryoneI'd like to know what their Jupiters, Suns and moons are doing in their chart to Saturn. When I've met REALLY cheep/stingy people and then done their charts, I've seen that saturn is in hard aspect to at least two planets, ether sun, moon and jupiter. I've seen really generous and stingy people from all the signs. This is what I have found and is just my opinion only, sorry if someone is generous and has these aspects, I'm not a pro astrologer! But i wouldn't be surprised though to find Saturn the bad guy in this with others charts. Sharon IP: Logged |

Dont worry Carl not all women think money is priority when looking for boyfriend. When I met my husband he was living in an office literally. He comes from a rich family but when I met him he was living in office and was very poor, his friend was letting him live in his office and shower at his mother's house which was close by. His friend was also taking advantage of the fact that he needed him and thanks to me he was able to leave that job eventually and move out of the office. He now is doing well but if I wouldn't have been in his life he could still be at the office bc his friend had it set up so he depended on him. Now me and him are doing really well and live in a 4 bedroom house and shop at whole foods. We have grown financially every year that passes a little more and more. Why I dated him even though he was super poor at the moment bec he was smart and original and I knew he had a good heart and would be good to me. I later then learned of his defects but I am sticking it out and working it out as so is he. IP: Logged |
