I don't know if this is my theory or I read it somewhere or a comboI was thinking about my mother who has her Mars as her only earth planet. It is a Taurus Mars. She always wanted to master the physical world such as fix things. If anything broke, my mother would spend all day fixing it, if need be. She did anything,'cept electric. When I do charts, they are, always, my teachers. I have come across a few people with water singletons who seems to ask me"Do I REALLY have enough water" as if it is a plea to be reassured that they really do have enough of this element. My mother was the same way. I am an earth void. I call someone to fix it IP: Logged |

I have 0 Fire and only 1 Air, and my Sun is Libra and peregrine to boot. :')I really do come off as a snooty intellectual know it all to some people sometimes! But inside I doubt myself. IP: Logged |

You read it somewhere. It's pretty much a commonly known astrological theory that people supposedly overcompensate for the elements they lack.

Singletons are greatttt. They're useful resources - people usually make use of their singletons before other facets of their chart, hence why it might be considered enough of that element, or overcompensation.Your mumma isn't earthy at all if all she has is one planet, but she'll use that planet readily (in that case, taking time and perseverance to do stuff, like fix things).

Mars in Aries singleton Pluto in Scorpio singleton I feel like these placements cover enough fire and water haha. I'm probably not the most sensitive or emotional person, but I never really see those qualities as an asset anyways. Especially in this grueling world :P

I have one water planet, Neptune in Scorpio, and it has had an impact on my life that could be considered very strong. I also have the NN in water. Don't know if that's the same as having a planet. I have an asteroid, Lilith in the water sign Cancer. IP: Logged |

I mean that the one planet in the element seems to drive the person to achieve in that element, unlike a void which does not.

No, the theory is that because people have so little of that element, they overdo it. Like someone with no water who cries constantly, or someone with no earth being preoccupied with earthly concerns like acquiring wealth.
It's not that they use them first because they have a 'strength' in that area, it's more of a natural inclination towards trying to achieve balance and make up for what they lack. Even so, it's not always true that when you have a lack of an element, that you'll try to compensate, either. I have *only* my Venus and Chiron in earth, nothing else, and I've gotten to the point where I've finally admitted to myself that I'm just not a practical person and that mundane, and monetary earthly type concerns hold little to no interest for me whatsoever. I'm one of those people who spaces out and their mind starts wandering, or they procrastinate wherever anything related to that element is concerned. I've had people try to make me feel like that was some kind of fundamental flaw but honestly, it takes all types and not everybody is meant to be the same. Everyone has areas of specialty/focus, or whatever. IP: Logged |

I hear ya, Stacey, but you did try,though, right? You struggled with it? I am an earth void and I never struggled. I think the total void is different than the Singelton, in the struggle part------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Pluto in Scorpio is my only water planet. Maybe that's why I'm attracted to esoterism and paranormal stuff so much? Besides I like darkness, vampires and am quite fascinated by death-related subjects (I wish I could have a NDE ) and some taboos. I like mystery and can be mysterious.IP: Logged |

@Ami Anne; yeah, I guess I can see what you mean there, and I agree. quote: It's not that they use them first because they have a 'strength' in that area, it's more of a natural inclination towards trying to achieve balance and make up for what they lack.
That's pretty well what I meant, pretty lady. I could be wrong about the driving reason, but I've noticed people's singletons are sort of more defining than usual because they're used more than other parts of the chart. Let's see, I'll try to dissect your Venus in Virgo singleton. You won't be earthy, but maybe you value things similar to earthy type stuff, like...common sense! Perhaps you are simple and not overdone when you think about things you like or value. Naturally un-inclined towards romance. Those are basic Virgo Venus traits, but since it's a singleton, are they a stronger force in who you are? Or are they more pronounced? IP: Logged |

Cap sun is my only earth planet. I think I compensate for my lack of earth by having a lot of other Capricorn friends. It just makes me feel secure, like, "If I can't pull this Capricorn stuff off, you've got my back, right?" IP: Logged |

This would mean that you try to "imbibe" air. IOW, you crave to make the world of air( intellect) your own. You feel, almost, a craving auch as one would want cheesecake.

I have only one fixed planet (Pluto in Scorpio) and besides Jupiter, it's my only water planet. It makes me pretty intense, strong willed, stubborn and emotionally soft (though I don't really show it). I get along really well with Scorpios and seem to attract alottt of Scorpio placement and plutonian people. I find comfort in their depth and feel an affinity I guess? I am great at keeping secrets and am quite a private person. My life is a series of many tough experiences which have shaped and transformed me dramatically.IP: Logged |

Thats the thing about forums, people just want their questions answered or share their opinions. Nobody wants to actually communicate. Its not personal thou. Yeah but most astrologers count outers as a singleton. I don't see why they wouldn't Outer singletons are especially powerful when they aspect personal planets. IP: Logged |

with all due respect, it really is a deliberate avoidance with one moderator. not in general. i am not jumping to conclusions, this has spanned months. thank you i have a singleton (pluto in scorpio) that is my chart ruler. it is conjunct my ac, square my sun, opposite my moon, inconjunct my mars, sextile my neptune. going back to the original topic though i do not think ever, having a singleton, "oh man, i wish i had more water" if anything i'd think "i wish i had more earth" which i only have neptune and moon in. so the "oh i wish i had more" for singletons would more likely apply to me if we aren't counting outers i guess.
