Oh and you asked if my Sun was in the Virgo-Libra Cusp?

I said I don't think it's in the "Cusp of Beauty" (as tarot.com dubs it)
I also said I don't believe cusps exist, lol.

What is the cusp supposed to start anyway? 27 degrees Virgo - 2 degrees Libra? Or spread out more?

---

By cusp I just meant the beginning of Libra, 0 degrees.

Anyway, I mentioned duads because of all the influence from my parent's astrology, it shows up in the duads as well as the signs and houses. My father has a Pisces moon and I have moon opposite Neptune for example.

---

Oh. My Virgo Sun is at 23.58 degrees. So 6.02 degrees away from 0 degrees Libra. Is that what you wanted to know?

Let's see:
My Mom is a Cancer Sun and Pisces Moon.
I have Sun square Moon, Sun trine Neptune.

My Dad had a Libra Sun and Gemini Moon.
I have a Gemini Moon as well, Sun conjunct Venus.

Well, I am a Scorpio, so. My Mercury is in Scorpio. My Venus, Mars, and Jupiter are in Sagittarius and they all conjunct each other.

My ASC/Rising and Moon are in Virgo. My Moon is in my 1st House conjuncting my ASC/Rising.

Well your placements do point to you being a deep thinker then.

I have Jupiter in Sagittarius in the 4th with a wide conjunction with Pluto in Scorpio in the 4th. My Mars is in Scorpio in the 3rd House.
I'm a Virgo Sun, Gemini Moon and Leo Ascendant.

I'm pretty deep/philosophical in my thinking as well
I have always thought from a different perspective than people and feel as if it's unworldly in how I think.

Gryffindor= Fire. Harry etc. are in here, very feisty and courageous students; smart, but don't necessarily think things through before acting

Ravenclaw= Air

Hufflepuff= Earth

Slytherin= Water

I honestly would switch up the Slytherin/ Hufflepuff elements tbh, water influenced people can be quiet but they generally seem not very dark (to my Pisces Sun lol).

Anyway

Sun signs don't really have too much to say to me but some things seem to stick.. e.g

Taurus Sun people seem very kitten-like to me for some reason

Harry is a Leo, his birthday is on July 31st. Voldemort is BORN on December 31st (actually he was born at midnight, hurrah, we even have his Asc LIBRA (Pluto in H10,NN conj MC - notoriety, thirst for powah) : he was known for his looks & charm - Moon in Scorpio MUAHAHAHAHAHA)

The Weasleys are mostly fire.

Draco is Gemini.

Yes, both societal and state of mind.
Firstly, most people will automatically be biased towards positive and optimism and label the pessimist a pessimist, but in fact, it it weren't for the pessimist, they will be making a fool of themselves with false hope when there's times in actuality, there really is no hope. I understand lying and saying there is hope so that it will keep a good vibe, but they will be wasting time with false hope when they can be thinking of a plan to fix the problem instead of assuming everything is going to be okay.

The kinds of things in this ^ nature (I have many more reasons, but I think I'll leave it at that, lol ) where everyone seems to have the same ideas and views on something. But when someone proposes an eccentric idea, they kill his/her standing as an influence so that any of their future views will be considered "weird" or "stupid" just because they brought a whole different perspective to the equation.
It makes me really mad and I'm sick of seeing the same old stuff, lol. It just repeats over and over.
I'm the type of person who likes constant progression (kind of an Aquarius and Virgo combined POV) in all areas, such as Science (most importantly) social structures, architecture, etc. Anything that improves things and makes them better than how they were before.

Secondly, on a state of mind way; I can almost intuitively know what people are thinking and are going to say when either I say something, or I'm observing other people. Sometimes I don't even feel like expressing my views, opinions or thoughts on things because I know what will be said by the other person, as per their reaction to it as well, even if it's something mild, I can tell how people are going to take it. (again, much more to explain, but I'll keep it at that )

Yes, by definition pragmatism will be considered primitive, but if you still need something that useful as of this day, I wouldn't view it as primitive, but rather productive and perhaps ahead of it's time (in a weird paradox kind of way because it's primitive, yet what we should work towards) because it seems this society isn't based off of practicality as much as I think it should be.

Sorry if that was a little pessimistic within itself

The writer even used Tarot symbolism - Dumbledore's death was shown by Tower. Harry - Page/Knight of Swords.

Slytherin with water? That doesn't seem right. They are so materialistic and the obsession with immortal life and power hungriness are definitely earth traits. Water is intuitive and empathic - Hufflepuff traits.
Most dictators have strong earth.

On a side note, I used to be a self-identified Hufflepuff but EVERY house sorting internet site (including Pottermore) tells me I'm a Slytherin. So I just roll with it.

Back as promised!

I'm an ARIES. My thoughts on other Sun Signs?
----

Taurus: Rugged, down-home, straight-forward folks. Solid, slow-moving people, very sarcastic people. They love a good meal! You must have a backbone or they'll dominate you!

Gemini: The *best* people to have conversations with. You can talk about anythaaang with them! They are lively & animated so they rarely EVER bore you. They are better as friends than as long-term partners though! Don't always know when to "slow down" and can be moody.

Cancer:
-Mature Cancers? Fiercely protective of those they love. The Mother Hen! The Doting Dad! Great listeners who know EXACTLY what you need without you even saying it! Oustanding sense of humor. Wise.
-Immature Cancers? Emotionally exhausting! Bitter & resentful. Plays too many games with the people closest to them.

Leo: LARGE EGOS - like chill out on that! They will have a fit if you don't aknowledge how "amazing" they are! Haha. They are usually charming, entertaining, gossipy, generous & give great advice on romance. They are regal & love the "good life". But there are some Leos that are VERY bitter, selfish & domineering. All depends!

Virgo: They overanalyze *constantly* or they do not analyze *at all*. There is usually no IN-BETWEEN with many Virgos. They worry often and they benefit from your encouragement or appreciation of all that they *do* for you. They show love through SERVICE, not in grand "showy" ways. Reserved but informative! Most really prefer not to be in confrontation but when they *do* fight - they are COMING. FOR. YOUR. ASS. They are kind, but they aren't fools! The ones I know like home decor, gardening, or comfort things.
-----

I'll be back with my thoughts on the other Signs shortly!

You being a Gryffindor doesn't surprise me lol
My headcanon is Gryffindor - fire
Ravenclaw - air

Hufflepuff - water (there is no one more reliable than a Pisces, Scorpio or Cancer. They are also tireless workers. I'm a lazy bum compared to them. hahah

I know, not surprising...

"It is the tradition to have four houses, but in this case, I wanted them to correspond roughly to the four elements. So Gryffindor is fire, Ravenclaw is air, Hufflepuff is earth, and Slytherin is water;
hence the fact that [Slytherin’s] common room is under the lake. So again, it was. this idea of harmony and balance, that you had four necessary components and by integrating them you would make a very strong place.”

Fellow Aries: Individuals by nature! Even the quiet ones will not go against their own will for very long - just not WHO we are. We are not so much "selfish" it's that we won't sacrifice our *vision* just to please you - that's what a true Leader does! If the Aries is immature? They are all-over-the-place, argumentative, and self-absorbed. Mature Aries? Great listener, puts things into action, a great inspiration to others, a nurturer of talents & a fierce protector of those they love. Always up for an fun adventure!! You can call me and I'll be down for almost anything.

Libra: Needs approval from others, at least to an extent. Very perceptive. Charming, gracious, good at conversing. Very gossipy on the sly! Mean by surprise! They like to look good, have a polished appearnce - they judge you if you look a mess LMAO. They pick & follow a strong personality and will BACK that person up fiercely.

Scorpio: Just as *sensitive* as Cancer & Pisces but people give them a pass on it! Scorpios can sometimes be insecure, but others forgive that because of their UNMATCHED passion & intensity. They are private (at first) yet they *burn* to know EVERYTHING about you. They call you on your B-S better than anyone else!! They want your soul - - and once you've earned their trust...they desire to give their heart & soul to you too. They crave for you to fall *into* them like quicksand! Rarely though, does the Scorpio find what they are really looking for. And they can actually be quite cold, frigid & unsexual - *OR* they can be frightening sex maniacs! They like to throw curveballs.

Sagittarius: Funniest people on earth! Humor just comes so naturally to them. They are very "ironc" people, too. These folks also struggle with BALANCE. They often go to extremes -- very dark moods *or* very bright ones!! Thinking very positively *or* very negatively. They hate superficiality YET they often run from deeper emotions & relationships! They have *many* acquaintances but have *few* that they allow to get super *close* to them. They can get crazy when pushed.

Capricorn: They strive to have stellar *charcter* and they are usually very principled, which I admire deeply! They are very serious, driven people. This is true! However, Caps also have a *wild* side too that they're very willing to let loose around the people they truly trust & enjoy. They can be funny & even raunchy when they want to be! They have a stern, cold, a**hole way about them if they don't dig you at all.

Aquarius: Always in their head! They lock their emotions in a closet somewhere deep to avoid things. When they *do* show emotion, they can be just as sensitive as a PISCES! They can over-react & take small things very personally when they don't put up that "Detached Mask". Aquas are usually free-spirited, friendly, funny people. I know some Aquas who are humble, and I know some who have large chips on their shoulders!

Pisces: They can be ultra-sensitive, kind, self-sacrificing. But like the Fish...they can also be cold, slippery & heartless and this isn't said enough about them! Not all Pisces are these innocent, fragile creatures man. Like Cancer & Scorpio, when you *honestly* nuture, love & honor them...they calm down and learn not to be so sensitive! Immature Pisces? Plays too many damn games, is indecisive, indirect, desperate & sad. Matutre Pisces? Wise, amazingly loving, willing to be your "Bridge Over Troubled Water", so to speak. Fabulous sense of humour.

THAT'S ALL I GOT!

Don't like pisces (too into their little world inside their minds..)

Earth signs just fine (Virgo just complain a little bit for me, but that's ok).

Libra ones, hum, too much "I don't know" for my patience.

Cancers are a bit confusing for me, all want to mother me (I need a boyfriend not a mother) =P
