Not our lives or other people but ourselves. Since I have Sag DSC, does that mean I come off like a Gemini but really possess a Sagittarian personality/way of life? How does that correspond to our moon, which is said to be what people see when they're our "best" friends?

I have Sag. Asc. Gemini Desc. But I also have Venus in Gemini in 7th H. So not only do I attract Gemini types but Venusian types as well.

Because my BFs have had a Gem DESC, they are attracted to people who have a strong Mercury element. I have a Gem ASC with Mercury in the 1st house.

The sign on the DESC is basically the energy which we usually project on to others and/or have a harder time owning ourselves. I find that because Sag energy is very opposite to my energy, I'm attracted to the balance it brings me. BUT - the more I attempt to become like my DESC (like the adage 'become the man you want to marry') the more balanced I feel within myself.

They're saying that because they have Venus in Gemini in their 7th house, they also attract Venusian types.

I have Saturn, Uranus and Neptune in my 7th (Descendant in Sag). So I attract Sags, but also Saturnine, Uranian and Neptunian people.

I have the same thing as both you and Sorcha, amowls. Neptune is in my 7th! Although I find I attract more earth, air, water combinations (particularly Capricorn and Scorpio) than Sags. When I do meet a Sagittarius though I instantly feel free and at ease.

So, in short there's a part of my personality that IS Sagittarian? Because I feel it, I just wasn't sure if it was my DSC causing that.

I think that we feel our Desc as "the other" until we integrate that energy more fully in our own personalities. I've always found Sag to be a pretty laid back sign (considering it's a fire sign) - more easygoing than other signs. That's definitely something that I'm always endeavoring to integrate into my personality as I age. Having said that, I've never dated a Sag bc I don't feel a romantic spark with them but I do like Sag in Mercury and as an Ascendant

Also in saying that for some reason I just realized my DSC and MC are both ruled by Jupiter (Sag and Pisces). It's like my destiny in life is to learn how to let go of control and not be uptight, and to trust which are some issues I have! I mean I have Virgo IC... it's strongly pronounced too.

I know what you mean, Mercury is also my Moon dispositor! AND my North Node is in Sag, right on my DSC. So I'll eventually have to integrate that part of me, which is quite non existent, as for now

for example, if i dropped you into the middle of a jungle and i asked you what 5 things you'd want with you to help you survive it and manage it, then that is one of the areas your ASCendant takes over, simultaneously i'd say with your mars. Followed shortly by Sun and moon.

as for the descendant, i agree, i think its a projection of things - i think it is also the part of us that justifies our Self and reasonings for why we are that way.

its the flip side to ourselves, we know it exists and we value it in others, and appreciate it, but aren't familiar with How to be IT on a comfortable level, its not our natural traits or choice of tools for survival, but we admire the differences maybe.
