i'm not? i thought i was the most tactful mother ****** around

that's what i mean though people who think before they speak have a harder time grasping that i don't

i enjoy communication all the same though

i'm extremely hard to offend so i can handle being treated in a similar manner

i can control myself though when i need to, and one on one i can be very different especially when i care about someone deeply that changes communication a lot for me

i still don't think first, but the side of myself i express in groups isn't the same

What I didn't like, on another site (that no longer exists), was when I saw people targeting others with different beliefs. I don't believe in the bible, but I didn't like seeing a list of people who were religious - a list that this person used to target and troll them. It was public, there for others to use, basically targeted harassment.

i'm not one for going around throwing lists up or using them like that, but i'd be lying if i said i cared what other people did to any extent where i'd be bothered by that or have feelings on it

What makes Megan so annoying? lol. I thought she was a talk show host or something. But I think she is a soccer player?

Have you noticed that most romcoms have a Mercury strong individual as the lead? This whether it's a female/male?

"Sex and the City" -"Cary Bradshaw" was to me a Gem Sun archetype. She was a writer who used her experiences as as single girl navigating New York as inspiration for a book.

The Mindy Project I have always felt has the lead character as Sun in Gem.And Mindy does have Moon/ Venus in Gemini natally. Venus square Saturn in Virgo. The self deprecation is very Gemini.

Ally McBeal has Calista Flockhart natal Asc in Gemini
Her character on the show was very Mercurial imo. Maybe a fictional Mars/Mercury in Libra since dealing with the law? But there were awkward situations she got herself into.

I found the Allen Shore character on "Boston Legal" very Aquarian but with Gemini definitely in there. Perhaps Saturn there or Mc in Gem. The character was sharp! Even though at times very unscrupulous.

"Never Been Kissed" with Gem Asc natal Drew Barrymore's character Josie "Grossy" was a news columnist for a city paper working on an undercover story in a high school(Geminis are often drawn back to high school or neighbourhoods they grew up in at some points in their lives)

"How to Lose a guy in 10 days" character of Jennifer Hudson was also a magazine journalist. This is a Gemini/Mercury profession.

Mel Gibson's character on "What Women Want" was also to me a Gemini. He was working for an advertising firm and tricked his boss out of a job. Classic Gemini.

I guess its because Gemini is the proverbial "observer" and so most characters who are leads are written with that open-endedness? So the audience gets an "objective" view?

I see the characters on the cancelled show "Mistresses" also showing Gemini flavours. They get together for tea to discuss each others lives. A very Gemini thing to do. As is the case with "Devious Maids".

When thinking of Gemini as a kid, I have a picture of men watching a game & discussing their wives /girlfriends. I don't know where the image came from.But its stayed with me since.

I feel like Megan tries too hard, I watched her on a talk show and my opinion didn't change, I was like "yo!!! I wanna hear that another chick talk, Megan."

It's that Mars/Uranus in 3rd Dumizi. I sensed it the first time I read your posts. I was actually surprised that Libra was rising. Let alone Venus in Libra also there.

But when I saw that Moon is in Aries , I was like "yeah ok. That makes sense". Its that "Mars" energy from the Moon that comes through. You come across quite direct. And that is supported by Mars /Uranus in 3rd

Yeah I have this ex-bestfriend with a Mars in Libra, dude used to always let me "decide" what food we gonna have in the restaurant until I turned vegan, and then he started deciding, and now he just picks the same thing every time, but then again the rest look 10 times at the menu and pick the same thing too I guess.

Mars in Libra invests a lot of energy in accommodating others and being agreeable. This is a Venus ruled Mars placement-similar to Venus/Mars conjunct.

The native is often poised to learn -and I quote Cesar Milan here- "calm assertiveness". Libra gets the calm part. But it can easily extend to passivity. They still need to assert themselves.

Most Libras associate assertion with aggression. Aggression does not exist in the "downstream" world of Venus. Its like traveling to Iceland for a Sunbathing expedition.

What they can recognize however is structure(Saturn). Since Cap is exalted in Mars and Libra is exalted in Sat.

When Mars is in Libra,the next turn to comfort away from assertion is the need for structure. And Libra understands that. Libra is no friend of chaos.

So next time you two go out, ask the waiter to play along with you as you demonstrate how chaotic it can get when he is indecisive.

Order something on the menu and then change your mind again and again. Ask the waier to bring something and then change your mind again. Soon he will get visibly irritated and take the lead.

As soon as he does this, tell him how you like him taking charge of the situation as it saves time and makes everyones life easier. And that taking charge of a situation is not tantamount to "bullying" you.

As a Mars in Libra myself with Mars conjunct Dsc I will say that we are afraid of our own power. We imagine that anger or forceful actions will compromise long-term relations as well as personal image not preserve them.

the libra/venus is more in person, one on one, at work, appearance etc

i tone myself down on ll as far as online conversations go, sometimes i talk on here and go "oh right this is why you belong on anonymous boards" after i've said something

you'd be surprised how capable i am of biting my tongue and self control when i need to be though, if only i'm going to be affected that's one thing

but if i'm making an impression or dealing with people i have to deal with for someone i care about i'm very different

i'm still not thinking it's just a shift in demeanor and a different kind of autopilot

like i said you'd be surprised

i'm annoying like that in restaurants, i can make decisions with important **** but tell me to pick a movie or what to eat and it'll be an hour of me trying to decide until someone else decides for me

i've divided food up into separate portions because i couldnt decide which condiments i felt like using so i just ate all of them but separately before

i'm that level annoying

and i'll usually pick something i always get when i've left people hanging a while because it's easier than leaving people hanging

but yeah i'll open a menu 20 times change my mind each time then just go with whatever i'd normally get

this would be an amazing way to make everyone in a restaurant hate you and eat something subpar

also you should see my libra sun mother get mad, she has sun opposite moon (aries moon) and she's like a ******* chihuahua

she's 4'11 but she can scare that **** out of people when she loses it

i've seen her flip her **** on total strangers, just about getting her in the right situation

I have Moon in pisces ruling the 8H in the 3rd house square Neptune and opposite Mercury in virgo in the 9H. Moon opposite Mercury squares my nodes. Jupiter my chart ruler conjuncts Uranus which rules my 3rd house and falls in the 12H, Neptune rules my intercepted Pisces in the 3rd house too! and Neptune is in my 1H square Sun opposite Moon in the 3rd house. Moon quintile chiron forms a golden yod with Pluto.

Well..I've had meowing conversations with cats before, we'd meow back to each other.

The cat will start with a meow to say hello then I'd meow back. The cat whould meow back to me trying to correct my meows..

Ever watch Close Encounters of The Third kind. The Aliens try to communicate with humans using music those pesky humans respond back with music but they mess it up so the aliens try to correct it and respond.

Here's a clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4PYI6TzqYk

Its sorta like that when it comes to meowing with cats.

I can't remember whether you have Sun in Virgo? If so, its in mutual reception with your Leo Mercury. From that I can surmise the pull of Virgo to self-contain. As well as the urge for Leo to speak ones mind.

---

i would say it's more just that i can be both those things and like anyone else different parts of me are expressed in different ways

people who make assumptions based on interacting with me in one manner are likely wrong but that can be true in most cases (cant know someone entirely by interacting with them in one kind of situation)

people arent just generally one way all of the time

my sun is in virgo yeah, 0 degrees

as for the restaurant scenario, i've worked in a kitchen and i know what might not seem annoying to a customer is actually annoying particularly to the wait staff

i've heard so many waitresses ***** about damm near everything, and your scenario even if you got someone to play along (and you'd need to tip them a lot to make them hate you slightly less and they'd still probably hate you) would put excessive strain on them

they have other people and tables to worry about and people expect things a certain way and don't understand simple things like "food takes time to cook" (which they then take out on the wait staff who in turn goes back into the kitchen to ***** about you and the fact that food takes time to cook and people at other tables have ordered things etc) when they're at a restaurant

so what doing that would essentially do is make it so the kitchen was backed up doing pointless **** (because if your order gets put in before you "change your mind" and that happens more than once that's going to cause problems for the kitchen having to readjust especially if anything was already started and even if it hasn't been then it's still having to continually adjust what you're doing for one table while worrying about others too, and it's not made better if the restaurant is on the empty side that actually likely makes it worse for the cooks because they'll have started things sooner), the waiter/waitress is stuck running back and forth giving you extra attention when they have other tables and people of varying temperments to deal with (which may or may not affect their tips and experiences at those other tables), other tables are inconvenienced by it because of time spent on pointless demands etc and so on and basically yeah everyone in the restaurant will find you annoying and difficult even if your intention was only to "pretend to be difficult" by actually acting that way

wait staff is usually stressed to hell from dealing with people, and people take everything out on them and sometimes even simple reasonable requests can be that extra thing that sends them spiraling (no one's fault necessarily, but true all the same)

it's a terrible scenario in reality that only makes sense in a movie (and if that movie was about the restaurant staff they'd all be in the kitchen complaining about you) where other people outside of the two people at the table are one dimensional and barely exist

your libra mars has seen too many romantic comedies or some **** (watch better movies)

Oh gosh. And I love me some romcoms.

Interestingly I have worked as a waiter before whilst I was a student. It was an experience I found nice because of my colleagues. We did complain about folks a lot lol.

But honestly speaking , I wouldn't do this exercise in a hectically busy restaurant. And I would tip.the waiter extra to play along. The idea behind it is to show the indecisive mate how annoying indecisiveness can be.

Interestingly I have Mercury/Venus tight aspect by sextile with Mars in Libra too. And I really think it is also responsible for critiquing(Mercury) others(Venus)

This especially when we consider that Mars is in Libra. This is actually a very fussy placement but is "nice" about it and will not admit to it. But it does critique too.

Mars is enterprise and in chaldean astrology, it rules the 3rd house of travel/initiative and guts.So Mars is also mentally enterprising or active in seeking out new physical as well as intellectual challenges.

Mars is not just this blood thirsty hooligan who acts without heeding the consequences(as often believed). Yes it can get argumentative. But it is also driven to solve puzzles and cut through the fluff.

So its no wonder Mars in Libra prefers the courtroom than open warfare because Nelson Mandela had it (he was a laywer) and so does Judge Judy.

It is a placement that crtiques too by looking at both the "rightness" of something and then the "wrongness" of the same thing.So I don't buy into the "laziness" interpretation at all. Perhaps indecisive yeah. But lazy?

I would peg Venus/Moon in Libra or Taurus as prone to being lazy. They come across so settled already that they resist disturbance-this especially Taurus.
