I do have a Libra stellium but it's on the Scorpio cusp with a Scorpio Jupiter...and neither my Libra nor Scorpio energy cared for school as it was unfair, fake, cowardly when it came to truth or at least the telling of it (even most of the teachers), and just not to be trusted. My 5H Sag stellium (which surely tied into my Leo ASC) also made it difficult though I didn't consciously get into ethical philosophy until I was 17 (and by then I was no longer in school). My principal once told me I "lacked school spirit" as if it was a character flaw (whereas I guess he felt proud lying on the news for the school and its teams, allowing horrid abuse to go on, etc).

My Scorpio had to understand many things, though...for example, I came to realize (as an adult many years after school) that the reason the jocks and cheerleaders at my school (and so many others to this day) got away with so much is because the community identified with them and furthermore had a strong tendency to excuse their actions (just as they would their own) and thus hold them to lower standards rather than higher because any shame on the teams and such was a shame on the entire community. This was so alien to how my mind works so it was very hard for me to grasp but so much made sense when I realized it (including the insane riots and violence that sometimes precede and follow major games).

Heh, you'd think an Aquarian person would show 'school spirit' since the traditional Aquarian type has a love of universality and the collective/group efforts but I'm pretty Aquarian and I loathed school spirit and all sorts of things like this.

It's not just school sports and such, but also national, church, etc, any group a person identifies too strongly with. Not usually individuals (unless they're famous or otherwise an obvious representation of their group/team) mind you, but a group or team that represents them (community, school, branch of service, partisan group, denomination, etc) to society at large.

My first thought was Aries influence, mainly Aries Mars - because they often want to do their own thing and resent being in a team, unless they are in a leadership position.

The responses here made me laugh! I also have Capricorn 7H and Venus in 11H and I have always hated school spirit/team spirit. I find it embarrassing.

Honestly I think you're going to hear a lot of people here as being that way though. People who participate in astrology tend to be individualistic and somewhat introspective and self-aware. Not exactly the type to get swept up in the hype of a pep-rally.

That's odd you have Venus in the 11th and hate pep rallies. My sister has that an she's into all that school spirit kind of stuff.

I *need* to know that i have people behind me or next to me, as to achieve a common cause. And they are. We work together, we organize events as a team, we hang out as a group of friends, etc. I love it. I need that spirit. But i also need my time alone very much so, as in "retreat". Above all i always remember that i am an individual with my own views and opinions, and my own path.
