Honestly I've seen bossiness from pretty much every sign in the zodiac, I don't think any one group is more predisposed to it than the other.

I've got alot of cardinal in my chart ( (aries) rising, libra moon, venus, mercury, cancer jupiter, cap uranus, neptune, saturn) and I'm not bossy at all! I think it depends on the individual really. Leos can be alittle bossy?IP: Logged |

I think somebody that has some cancer and scorp in them can be pretty fixed in their opinions and always think they're right. Esp in combo with an aries placement =/Like really stubborn and thinks no matter what, they're right (even if they know they're wrong, they still fight tooth and nail to convince you they're right about things), the aries gives them an ego (fake or otherwise, doesn't matter lol, just makes them pig headed) IP: Logged |

*Raises hand*Bossy cardinal sign right here! I will give orders but don't expect people to follow if they have better plans. I'm not a clinger, just a my-way-or-the-highway sort. Almost all other Caps I know are bossy. Aries is half and half... Some are, some aren't. I don't notice it much in Libra and Cancer. IP: Logged |

Aries sun, Mercury in Aries, and Venus in Aries. I can be bossy if I'm comfortable, but I know how and when to reign it in. You'd be surprised to know I hold back what I'm truly thinking a lot of the time. I think that's what I've always found a little tacky in Leo males. They're very (no I should say they CAN BE very - ) pompous and entitled but hey, people do what they say which is something I kind of admire. IP: Logged |

yea all cardinals are pretty bossy, some are better at hiding it though! for example:an Aries is the most obvious, Linda used to say anything that comes out of her mouth sounds like an order "do this, do that etc.." cancers are bossy too but they sort of guilt you into it : "i would've baked you the cake but i was too busy nursing my sick octopus.. its a shame though i can really use some cake.. wait what? u'll make one? oh shucks" Librans are waaaay to bossy, but to them its always too subtle u barley ever notice it: "oh wow you know i love ur hair its soo long and curly very natural.. have you ever tried cutting it short? what no?! oh my im sure it would look amazing, it'll bring out you're high cheeck bones and maybe round ur face you know what i think you should give it a try.." cappys are the typical bossy types, not too abrupt as aries but straight forward: "you know i appreciate a good laugh, but when its time to get to business i expect you to be serious.." i have mostly cardinal placements, a lot of capp. a few libra, and one single cancer..

That's so true and the very reason I don't get along with Cancers or Libras! I hate manipulation. Just give it to me straight, don't expect me to read between the lines your freaking demand! Urgh. I am pretty straightforward myself and I appreciate a 'no' for an answer. I would much rather I get it out straight than try like Cancers and Libras do to "get it out of someone". Geez, own up your demands! LOL And that's one reason I love Leos. They boss me (or try to) but at least I know and they know they are doing it and if I say 'no' they know I mean it. End of the story! None of this "I thought you wanted to do it yourself or I would have done it for you" and other manipulative B.S.! Rant's over! IP: Logged |

My boyfriend is Cancer Sun, Leo Moon, Virgo Mars. Mutual Reception in very bossy signs (Sun and Moon)... and yes, he's very bossy lol. He micromanages a lot, too.IP: Logged |

Cardinal is a strength aspect, I think. I have a Cancer moon and Mars. Although I am tender, I can still be strong.------------------ Want a peek in to my journal? http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Cancer is the most mysterious of the cardinal signs. When Summer hit's, a new wave of growth and abundance manifests in the world. So Cancer people carry this with themselves. IP: Logged |

Cardinal signs aren't bossy they just initiate. They are the self starters, go-getters, movers and shakers. They can be domineering at their worst but the same can be said for all the other signs. Fixed signs have great stamina. They are the finishers. They seal the foundation after having had the Cardinal signs initiate the project. They can be stubborn at their worst and risk inertia. Mutable signs are the adapters. They fit in where the Cardinal signs and the Fixed signs don't or can't. They can be scattered and confused at their worst. So NO Cardinal signs aren't bossy and they don't always think their right that can be applied to anyone. Fixed signs would probably take the cake on that one considering they can be pretty stubborn.

I agree with NativelyJoan, and I also want to clarify being unreasonable (Scorpios...) and bossy are two different things. Is every sign outright bossy? No. Does every sign have their own concoction of getting their way? Of course. A Scorpio is not going to be direct in what they want without other placements, first off. Secondly, they're not demanding in each request but rather over the course of the relationship. For instance you'll look back in a year after knowing them and realize how much you did without realizing it. Cancers are not bossy people in my opinion, I've known many Cancers and when wanting something they are almost always passive about it and if they don't get their way it simply gets swept under the rug. Aries and Leos? Yeah sure we can be bossy, but we don't make any bones about it either and that's the beauty of it. IP: Logged |

I have sun & mercury in Aries, which are conjunct to each other.I've been told I can be very bossy, direct and "over-bearing". In my experience, Capricorns can be bossy, but more in a domineering or a very serious, get down to business fashion. For whatever reason, many of the Cancer sun people or cancer influenced I know are pretty bossy, or pretend to be, almost more like in a motherly fashion, as if they're trying to keep their baby chicks in line, or something to that extent.

Oh, and I have moon in Aries, forgot that.Also---- Libra's are "bossy" in the more, mediating and organizing and keeping everyone from fighting and leading everyone in the diplomatic fashion kind of way. More subtle. IP: Logged |
