My own:

Aries: they get very fired up, but in most cases, they will be forgiving and let go of things; they can also be very idealistic, and their directness, while it can sting sometimes, is a relief

Taurus: they simultaneously are very here-and-now and grounded, and very aware of the real and the practical, yet even the most earthy and un-idealistic ones will still have, in most cases, that Venusian gift of loving and appreciating beauty: those two seem like opposites, but Taurus blends them together, and it works

Gemini: they can be faithful, if they find someone who keeps them guessing and continues to interest them--not all Gems are cheaters or liars (and not all earth signs are faithful, either). They can also have a hidden emotional/serious side to them, and, even when they seem light-hearted and puckish on the surface, can hide some pretty dark personal demons (e.g., depression, to give one example)

Cancer: even though they're supposedly girly, I've known a few very tomboyish Cancer females. Even though they looked very typically Cancerian and feminine, those particular Cancers were drawn to traditionally male-dominated subjects/areas of interest, which was an interesting blend and something unexpected (in a cool way). I've also noticed that there are a fair number of Cancer-influenced people who actually don't want kids (me included, as well as a few other Cancerian females that I've known). Also, I've never met a Cancer sun who was bad at math. Cancer women especially (that I have known) are good with numbers.

Leo: As much as they like have been said to like attention, some can also be very icy and standoffish. They like to shine, but there is this sense with some of them (not all) that they are the noblesse and you are the tiers-état. They definitely rank people, and if they don't consider you a 'fellow aristocrat', so to speak, they'll act accordingly. Oddly enough, though, even with the "noble-commoner" dynamic, some have exceptional compassion for the throwaways of society and some will actually go as far as to interact with them, which many people will not do. It's strange. They are capable of being 'accessibly noble' (reaching out to those we prefer to forget), but also 'inaccessibly noble' (cold, push people away, avoidant).

Virgo: Even though some are unbelievably nitpicky (I've noticed it with Venus and Moon Virgos, too), they can also be very forgiving and patient. As critical as they can be, they're also willing to help.

Libra: As talkative as many of us are, we hold back quite a bit (mainly unpleasant things). Many of us also are insecure about our looks and don't feel loved/liked, or at least not as much as we would like to be loved/liked. I personally have a hard time feeling close to people and secure with them--it takes either someone that I just naturally click with or else a lot of time to build up unspoken understanding. We're known for being the sign of beauty and socializing, but many of us (though not all) often feel ugly and alone at times, more so than others would think.

Scorpio: they can be super-sensitive and much more easily hurt than they let on, though I do think that people are starting to be onto them.

Sagittarius: They are really bad about forgetting things and getting back to people, especially Sag moon, Mars, and Venus, and sometimes the suns. I've noticed this in a number of people with those positions. On the brighter side, though, I don't really feel like the love of higher learning or philosophy is emphasized enough with Sags. You hear more about the party types or about their mouthy-ness (or at least I do). They do have that philosophical bent in a lot of (though not all) cases.

Capricorn: The suns can have a wickedly funny sense of humor that's often subtle and biting. Despite their reputation for practicality, the suns can also have good taste and some can be very great writers and artists, though they aren't known for that as a sign. Many also appreciate fine art, though they might not seem like the type that would be moved by it. Many Cappies that I've known have a good eye (when it comes to taste).

Aquarius: The fixed side of their sign can be overlooked at times, I think.
