Can you tell I love music? I thought this might be fun. Post a song that highlights each sign. Not your signs, but just each sign in general as you see it. You don't have to post for EVERY sign, but just a few if you see them. If you want, you can include a video too if it accents the song well. This might be a bit trickier then you might assume, because it might be hard for a single song to "isolate" a single sign.I find "games" like this to be very useful actually. In particular for something like astrology. It forces you to abstract what you think the "essence" of a sign is, and apply it to something seemingly unrelated. That what we do all the time when we read natal charts and the like. Doing something like this, is in a way, training ground. It gets your brain used to abstracting and applying. Further, you can see the interpretations of others. Which, allows you to refine your perceptions and understand astrology even better . Plus, it's fun!

I am not a "words" person, and in music it's all about the sound, so I don't factor lyrics all that much. I also included the genre so people know what style it is before the listen (what it actually is has little to no baring on the sign and why I chose it).Aries: Justice - The Phantom Pt. 2 Genre: Electro/Electronic Taurus: Morcheeba - Slow Down Genre: Downtempo/Trip-Hop Gemini: Ramona Rey - Lubię Cię Genre: Pop/Electronic Cancer: Blue Foundation - Shine Genre: Downtempo/Trip-Hop Leo: Öszibarack - Surfin' Safari Genre: Electronic/Indie Virgo: Télépopmusik - Breathe Genre: Electronic/Chillout Libra: Goldfrapp - Hunt Genre: Trip-Hop/Electronic Scorpio: iamamiwhoami - O Genre: Trip-Hop/Electronic Sagittarius: Esthero - We R In Need Of A Revolution Genre: Indie/Chillout Capricorn: Zero 7 - Somersault Genre: Downtempo/Chillout Aquarius: Fever Ray - When I Grow Up Genre: Electronic/Indie Pisces: The Starseeds - Parallel Life Genre: Chillout/Ambient Some I weren't totally satisfied with, but it's A LOT harder then it looks!

Oh! This is too hard. I could only decide on four signs.Aries: Elvis Costello - (I Don't Want To Go To) Chelsea Scorpio: Cocorosie - Werewolf Sagittarius: Gogol Bordello - Trans-Continental Hustle Pisces: Mercedes Sosa - Alfonsina y el mar (this song is about a famous Argentinian poet who drowned herself in the sea; I thought the story fit Pisces as much as the sound of the song, and Mercedes Sosa's voice I find especially ethereal here).

It's an all TV on the Radio edition! Pisces (the fish swimming up, anyway): Second Song Pretty Aquarian/Uranian: Caffeinated Consciousness And, this last one's not really a sign, but speaks to the fruition of more benign Venus/Chiron aspects: Province ---- Editing/fixing done. Lesson of the day: Don't post while distracted! IP: Logged |

Listening to the Pisces and Aquarian songs bit by bit (at work, but it's slow).tautomer - Your Pisces selection is quite ethereal. It's how I can get, but try not to...not an easy place to get out of. IP: Logged |

Many people love James Brown, including me! I could see it being an Aries song, but to me it has more of a Gemini vibe. Most funk music is very Gemini to me.
