When it comes to decision-making, which one of these three dominates your ability to decide and why? How do you think your placements and/or numerology numbers affects the way you go about making day-to-day decisions? ------------------ Leo Sun/Mercury Sagittarius Moon Cancer Venus/Mars/Rising "You haven't seen the best of me, I'm still working on my masterpiece"👊😏 IP: Logged |

I am definitely a gut-instinct/intuition type of person. When I try to use logic in order to "rationalize" my decisions, everything goes wrong. When I go with my gut, I am very successful. Everything I do is based on gut decisions. Mars on my Ascendant makes me quick about making decisions. When it comes to choosing things to do for fun, I can be indecisive, but when it comes to getting something done, I want to get it done and get going quickly. I don't like waiting around trying to figure out how to go about something. A lot of it is based on intuition though. My Life Path number is an 11, and so is my personality number. My expression number is a 9. ------------------ Scorpio Ascendant Aquarius Sun in 4th Gemini Moon in 8th Check out my blog ya'll: www.electrodgxtalks.wordpress.com IP: Logged |

I have a Gemini Moon. My life path number is 4. My personality number is 2. My expression number is 3.In most cases, my decision-making is based on a logical analysis of how to achieve my desired outcome. As in, which decision results in me getting what I want out of the situation? However, if I have to make a decision on how to do things on a day-to-day basis, I occasionally decide to wait for my intuition to kick in. Generally, whatever I do is meant to contribute to my future in some shape or form. It doesn't matter if at the moment I seem to be doing nothing, because anything else is an expression of enjoyment and I like to have fun just as much as I enjoy being creative. IP: Logged |

when I try to rationalize my head aches, It does not lead me anywhere. I am a gemini moon, and taurus sun. I am definitely gut/instinct/ intuition and emotional. Logic is play of the ego sometimes logic without intuition and an open heart would mean all sorts of strange motivation to do things which in spiritual truth have very less ground. We do not have any less ego based foundations on the earth, ruled by logic alone. Some are too scientific but miss the bigger picture because they are limited by logic only. I believe true geniuses are rules by emotions, intuition, intellect. Instinct is basically more of a survival response, where one without the other would make things chaotic. IP: Logged |

I'm very cerebral, but my life lesson is supposed to be to learn to be more emotional and instinctive. North Node in Pisces, and all!IP: Logged |

I am EXACTLY the same!!! Most my numbers are either 11 or 5. I am also born on the 11th day. IP: Logged |

Logic and Intuition complement each other.For example the other day I went to grab something to eat. I eventually found a place to eat, but there was no way I could have parked without going over the line or being crocked. I figured what does it matter, so I exited my car.... then I got this feeling that maybe the owners of the van parked beside me might be leaving soon and they might scratch or dent my door out of anger. So I logically thought I'm parked close to the store...someone who would park this close wouldn't want to stay too long...
Better to wait until I can park properly. Within 2 minutes a group of people exited one of the nearby stores ....and they were the owners of the Van parked beside me. Not that I mean any negative stereotypes but they look like something out of a Mafia movie... I'm thinking thank god I waited in my car I just avoided an unnecessary confrontation. So ya, sometimes I get these strange vibes/feeling ....if the logic supports it then I listen to it. ==================================== Gemini Sun, Capricorn Rising Aries Moon Gemini Mercury Venus Taurus Mars Cancer IP: Logged |

In DBT the wise mind is that space that connects the emotional mind with the reasonable mind and refers to our gut instinct, that is what emotional intelligence is about..When we speak of emotional intelligence we are talking about the wise mind. When you operate strictly from the emotional mind that leads to poor emotional intelligence and poor emotional regulation. When you operate only from the reasonable mind and ignore the emotional mind that has its problems too...

I think I'm logic. I have a first house Saturn.I lack water so intuition is not my strong point. I do have spurts of gut instinct but I think that is mainly experience. Live and learn ------------------ A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step...Lao Tzu IP: Logged |

Grand Water Trine (Scorpio Mercury, Pisces Moon, Cancer Saturn) stabilized with a Taurus Mars. I've got a Libra Sun-Uranus conjunction. It is like a seesaw for me. When my gut tells me to investigate, I do logically. Saved myself from STD's. ------------------ Claire "When going gets weird, the weird turn pro." -HST IP: Logged |
