Please contribute!Cardinal - confident, impulsive, scattered, talkative, bossy, controlling, no specific goal in mind (live in the moment), want to be five different places at once, quick movements, always walk head held high with a confident gaze looking forward, make lots of eye contact, passionate, always ready to joke. Fixed - working towards a specific goal in mind, make little eye contact, have less facial expression, seem "in control" of themselves, hard to steer off course or change their mind. Controlling but more controlled of themselves rather than controlling of others, of a more serious disposition and harder to make laugh. Mutable - come off as lazy, are easygoing, can at times be eerily silent, seem to be more at peace or at least thinking less than the other two modes even if in an energetic mood, less communicative than other two modes, will laugh at all your jokes or agree with whatever you say, seem to have no clear goal in life, as a rule are interested in too many different things, indecisive, can lack a moral compass, when they are energetic they can come off as too scattered and obnoxious for it to be healthy--come off as "too much." ------------------ True to my aqua north node, I'll always pick the choice nobody expected me to pick. ebay compatibility readings | testimonials | Past readings | Ideal compatibility (3rd post) | Q&A | What's a Love stellium? | Most important aspects descriptions | Aspects to avoid IP: Logged |

At workCardnal~ leaders, they see the big picture and are able to to lead and position their team. Fixed~ they are the doers, painstakingly and to the end. mutable~ basically they can follow or lead, they're the trouble shooters.

all the mutable people... I have ever known... talk wayyyyyyyyto much.. yesh... myself as well.... ^^; I think a Pisces may seem lazy from time to time... have known a few fish that could be called such... at times at least... and a Sagittarius can definitely get lazy if they don't push themselves to be and remain active.... but, I have never ever ever ever met a Virgo slacker.... ever... though they are the quieter in the group... at least at first... hmmm... I don't know many Geminis.... granted... yes that's true... but, those I know... like my Baba (grandmother)... are always, moving.... and would wither into nothingness if they weren't engaged in something at least mentally stimulating/challenging at any given moment... It seems odd this way -- Cardinal sounds like mutable Fixed sounds like Cardinal Mutable makes me depressed to even be called one... I pay too much attention to modes lately...(maybe that's why it doesn't seem to capture what I've been seeing?) iunno lol IP: Logged |

Well, I said they come off as lazy not that they actually are tho :PPisces, Virgos, Geminis, and Saggie can all be really quiet sometimes, but when they are energetic it almost seems like too much..like they got TOO hyper. lol. They just have this frantic talkative energy....that's all 4 from my observation...Virgos Pisces gems and saggies can all be super frantic and chatty. And yeah i have met several geminis that are really quiet! IP: Logged |

Well, they all have their negatives. Like cardinals are bossy and controlling, fixed are stubborn and dont admit mistakes, mutables are either frantic or too quiet lol. ------------------ True to my aqua north node, I'll always pick the choice nobody expected me to pick. ebay compatibility readings | testimonials | Past readings | Ideal compatibility (3rd post) | Q&A | What's a Love stellium? | Most important aspects descriptions | Aspects to avoid IP: Logged |

holy mother of pearl, so me! if i'm nervous or under stress, CHATTERBOX! a libra friend realized that if he didn't say anything after i answered a question during a conversation, i would keep going and going, and slowly getting more frantic trying to explain what i was saying. he was a jerk :P i'm a hostess in a restaurant, and i work with a team of other hostesses. i lead well. however, when we hit an hour wait and tables won't get up, and guests are getting antsy...i get antsy. usually i try to go walk it off and look at the tables in the dining room. my cancer friend just stares at me when i start to melt down. usually clears it up.

i also like to think that mutable signs can be very great at compromise. often take the whole picture into consideration to find what works best.first word that comes to mind with fixed signs is stubborn...that and very sure/confident (even if they're wrong, they're right!) IP: Logged |

Haha Scorpios not make eye contact? Idk about that. If I make it at point to make eye contact it's like "I'm serious" and is generally intense so if I avoid it - that's why. Whether it's romantic or just making a point. I might even avoid eye contact to not lead on actually IP: Logged |

Mutable sounds horrible! Why so negative? While all the others are... "Good"? It's like saying to be mutable is to be some dumb nincompoop! D: Even thought some... most of it is true. I'm actually a mixture of all of them. And I am mutable dominate. .-. Basically all my planets are mutable... Even the supposed to be "stronger" ones. Sagittarius; Pluto/Moon/Ascendant Pisces; Sun/Mercury/Saturn/Mars Bleh. I am SUPER lazy! IP: Logged |

Then that's the main issue in terms of eye contact - i have that as well and I'm more Cardinal than Fixed... being a square - it's also challenging - you're tempted to do it... but you're forced to deal with that blockage... at least - till you overcome it... this might work better with people you already know - just new ones can be troublesome. ------------------ [☼ ► ♊ ... ☾ ► ♈ ...

^^^ I used to be scared to look into people eyes but I learned a trick from theater. Look at their nose or forehead. Then slowly when you become more comfortable... Look into their eyes. IP: Logged |

You mutables should be happy to be the way you are instead of taking that as negative. I didn't really think it was negative when I wrote it.It's just how I tried to differentiate them from the other modes. I think I'm gonna add sensitive to the list. lol :/ IP: Logged |

Im heavy the on mutable but saturn on the mc contributes to why Im so motivated and goal oriented. Although sometimes I wish I can just goof off and skip work and classes like some of my peers...IP: Logged |

lol that's true! scorpios do make eye contact! but it's like it's with a specific goal in mind rather than cardinal (or mutable) who just does it instinctively. I think they make eye contact with you, like you said, when it's for a specific purpose...with scorpio usually to seduce you! lol. or show anger sometimes ------------------ True to my aqua north node, I'll always pick the choice nobody expected me to pick. ebay compatibility readings | testimonials | Past readings | Ideal compatibility (3rd post) | Q&A | What's a Love stellium? | Most important aspects descriptions | Aspects to avoid

So the mutable description...Mutable - come off as lazy, are easygoing, can at times be eerily silent, seem to be more at peace or at least thinking less than the other two modes even if in an energetic mood, less communicative than other two modes, will laugh at all your jokes or agree with whatever you say (Really??? Even a Virgo or a Sagittarius??? Nope- too much bluntness/take no crap; Geminis and Pisces- yeah ok, maybe I could see that), seem to have no clear goal in life (I strongly disagree- Have you ever met a Virgo??? Most of the Virgos I've known have been incredibly driven),as a rule are interested in many different things (not TOO many different things- just different things- sorry fixed signs, but it's good to diversify), indecisive, can lack a moral compass (What?!!! F- that! I've seen fixed and cardinal signs with WAAAAAY more out of wack 'moral compasses'... That has to do with the person, not the modality), when they are energetic they can come off as too scattered and obnoxious for it to be healthy--come off as "too much." (Again- matter of opinion- "for it to be healthy" give me a break). Sorry RAS... But that was obviously a very negative post about mutables, regardless of whether or not you 'MEANT' it to be. Honestly, I would add vindictiveness to the fixed sign descriptions. Every single one of the fixed signs (not just Scorpio) has a vindictive streak. I've seen Leos, Scorpios, Aquariuses, and Tauruses flip their sh*t over minor things and then say some of the cruelest things to people just to turn the knife. It's usually borne out of insecurity or inflexibility on their part though. A lot of the fixed signs really can't handle things being 'different' than they think they should be. IP: Logged |

I have a fixed asc/dsc & mutable ic/mc. On the outside I rarely make eye contact, am serious but on the inside I am mutable!!! Indecisive, will laugh at jokes, lazy, don't have a clear goal in life, will agree with everyone. I basically just float around. IP: Logged |

lol Milly, thank you for that enchantress, u need to chill lol "Will laugh at all your jokes or agree with whatever you say" I meant that in a good way. I'm a libra asc so I see that as a good thing!---bc I do that too! I just naturally tend to be ok with most things ppl say bc of my libra. u are taking my description way too seriously lol. Yes i do think they get TOO hyper, u just don't want to admit it. and i do think they come off as lazy/easygoing. It's not a bad thing, that's just the way they COME OFF. Like Milly said they seem like they're "floating around." Maybe in ambition obsessed america that's not "seen" as a good thing, but to me it is! bc they are more peaceful/adaptable than other people. That doesnt mean that at work they might not be extremely focused (as most virgos n sags like u mentioned indeed are), just that in the day to day they COME OFF as being so chill and easygoing that u get the impression that they really are like that. I'm surprised you didnt take the part where i said they seem to be thinking less than the other modes as calling them dumb and vapid!! hahaha. bc ur taking everything i said and twisting it into something negative. I would add vindictive to fixed but ive also seen lots of libras, sags, gems and cancers be vindictive. but i do agree with u that all the fixed signs seem to be. ------------------ True to my aqua north node, I'll always pick the choice nobody expected me to pick. ebay compatibility readings | testimonials | Past readings | Ideal compatibility (3rd post) | Q&A | What's a Love stellium? | Most important aspects descriptions | Aspects to avoid
