Moon in Taurus
Mercury, Venus in Capricorn
Mars in Scorpio.

He is the most open douchebag I've ever met. He constantly brags about the attention he gets from girls (he has a very built upper-body, beefcake, yes, but his ego just ruins it.) He has a list in his mind of girls he thinks/knows likes him. He's a gym rat. And he loves getting attention. However, according to my Pisces friend with Cancer rising (a girl) she says he's just kinda weird and he's actually a big softie. To me, it sounds like a case of projection.

However, is it pretty normal that Aquarius' have THIS big of egos?

The Leo/Aquarius polarity is about your place in the crowd. Both signs tend to think of themselves as unique: with Leo, it's about being seen as special and with Aquarius, it's about being eccentric. But, Leos can be very quirky in an Aquarian-like manner. Aquarians can also be egocentric and self-important in the way you'd expect Leos to be.

This, of course, also depends on different aspects/placements in their charts. But, I think it's a pretty solid theory, nonetheless.

I think that's how Leo strikes me whereas Aries are into boastfulness, show off even especially in terms of their success with the sexes.

I don't know... *hmmm.

He looks like an average version of Nick Lachey and Mark Wahlberg's love child. Mark Wahlberg has Cancer rising... ironically enough the Pisces I mentioned earlier has Cancer rising. If he (the LP officer) does have Cancer rising then it's another reason they'd get along easier than others.

I think Mintgirl has Aries rising, and from our exchanges on here I think I'd have no problem talking to her or approaching her. Granted, she's a girl and not a buffed out security guard, but still. There's an Aries guy who manages the front at work and him and I totally got each other right away. The vibe was easy. This guy's vibe is.... not. Hmm. Maybe he's actually fearful underneath what I've heard about him and I can sense that but never had a chance to put my finger on it. P.S. Another thing about Leo rising is they would have the need (maybe) to be liked by or at least on good terms with everyone. Leo anything hates being disliked in any way, imo.

I'm still thinking it's his Venus in Capricorn that I can sniff when he's around. I have a love/hate relationship with Capricorn anything. I always see them as the stubborn old mule who looks down on any sort of sense of humor BUT ... only because they themselves wish they could be like that. Then you have the queen of pranking come along (me; Gem ASC, Aries) and try to lighten them up but they won't budge, instead choosing to remain superior. It's a vicious cycle for both parties.

He is probably also fascinated by you, since you are a triple Aries - which is cardinal fire.. so you seem *extra* fiery from his perspective.

The thing is - you might be *too* much for him. Different people react differently to this kind of thing. Personally, I lack air - but I really like air sign people. It's true that being around them, I often end up out of my comfort zone in some way - but I don't mind. I feel like it is a good thing.

However, I know others who are not so 'open' to their missing element. I've known air sign people who lack fire and they seem very apprehensive about making fire-sign friends. Sagittarius seems to be the only 'likable' one. Maybe it's because Sagittarius-fire is a more 'laid back' kind of fire... and it's easier for them - whereas Aries and Leo (exalted/dignified) are more intense.

Maybe you simply don't get each other.
People put on a show sometimes. It doesn't mean they are exactly like that. Maybe Pisces girl got to know him on a deeper level. What's her Mercury?

so then, going back to basics..

Basic astrology
Now basically your sun sign is your 'core beliefs, values, ego' and Asc is your physical body, mode of expression and mask and persona that we all wear and hide behind, but definitely not what's going on underneath. What's going on underneath is your Sun sign. Moon sign, house placements and aspects describe your emotional and intuitive responses, also describes your view of your mother, as saturn describes your father by sign and house position.

So, think of a glass milk bottle the bottle is your Asc and your sun the milk, but the milk still has to 'come out' through the glass neck of the milk bottle....

Now aspects within a natal chart represent 'facets' of our personality, because we are all multifaceted beings. What these do is 'break down and compartmentalise' these facets into smaller bite size chunks. This does take quite a lot of self analysis and objectivity to 'see yourself' and why you do certain things and behave in certain ways. Actually it can be quite good therapy...

Remember back to your school days an opposition is 180', square 90', trine 120', and sextile 60' Now challenged aspects are conj (depending on the planets, cos some like each other and some really don't) squares and oppositions. Easy aspects are conj (if the planets get along) eg: Jupiter conj Moon, sextile and trine. Quincunx is inbetween (depending on the planets) causes health strains and unresolved or hard to balance planets/energies.

so perhaps you friend, made more of an effort to get past the Asc and got to know him on a more deeper level than just the suerpficial Asc sign...

I'm kinda bummed out (very very kinda though) because I usually get along with very well with Aquarius' but I find this one hard to approach for some reason. You'd think he'd be easy to approach if he loves attention but he isn't for me. I wonder if it's the Cap...

Without SEEing a chart *anyone* as you put it can be a 'douchbag' it's hardly fair lumping all aquarius sun signs in this category. I would have hoped by now the you might realised you are NOT the sum total of your sun sign....

Taurus moon is Exalted like your moon. I suggest you study a poss syn bi wheel,just use a 12noon or 6am chart and disregard Asc and moon aspects..

Problem YOU have seen his chart, WE haven't so we are all at a disadvantage, aren't we?

And as you recall, my post title is "I've never met an Aquarius like this."
