Do you think that is practical?

LMAO it's all right, happens all the time. It's probably because I like to mingle with all these lovely ladies so much that I come across as one.

1) This thread made no mention of any LL member. It's shining a light on an issue that has been around this forum for a while. And definitely before some of the newer LL members made their appearance.

2) If you had read my clarification, you would see that I encourage the sharing of experiences. And of course some will be subjective, sometimes those that involved our emotions for a time (for example a bad experience with people with a certain placement), or more objective, as in the research that we've done. These are both valid. It is up to --the reader-- to sort out what makes sense for them and what doesn't regarding their experience. They should also be able to filter out personal bias on an as-needed basis when taking in information. This takes more time to acquire for some, but it is possible. We have to do this every time we hear from the news media regarding any issue. This is a positive skill to have And LL is a good place to exercise that ability, especially when we speak of this subject which has many variables inherent in each placement/sign/house/aspect. Which is why I recommend owning or having access to a book on correspondences.

3) If you are going to take every astrological assertion made here as fact, then you are doing yourself a disservice. There are too many people here, with too many differing opinions, to be able to accept it all as "true and unquestioned at all times." This is crazy-making. Save yourself the trouble. I'm starting to reiterate my clarification from page 2 so I will end this point now.

4) And finally, if you did skip over my clarification on the issue, read this:
One's perception should never be misinterpreted as the perception of the majority, or even the minority.
I'll add in also, "one's experience."

If you are Republican, would you take as solid and factual everything that CNN reports.
if you are Democrat, would you take as solid and factual everything that FoxNews reports.
If you have a brain, would you be more likely to respect the reporting of the BBC? [ A curveball ]

^ Let's get objective on the *real issue* here and learn to filter. It will help you on LL, and elsewhere

I wasn't aware we are living in a George Orwellian 1984 world, where everything thrives in a topsy turvy dystopian atmosphere.

I get sick of hearing about Gemini Venus' supposedly cheating, scheming ways. I do, but I've been reminding myself that a huge chunk of the world is not paying attention to things like that, and even finds sunsign astrology pointless. I don't like anyone assuming things about me, but should they, and avoid me? Then they miss out on a pretty nice person.

I am venus in Gemini and I am SO loyal. I don't care what they say about it because I know that I will throw myself under the bus when I love. This is Cancer moon and Mars but so what if people think your placements are bad. YOU have to know who you are!

If they keep doing it, I call that instigating an argument.

If they instigate, I also reserve the right to contradict them as I see fit, and an argument might ensue.

I think it's strange to be pro-instigation and anti-reply. Nip it in the bud and be polite....problem solved.
