Hey ya'll

I think that I very much lived my Scorp Asc. when I was younger. When I felt threatened (which was, oh, most of my childhood ) I'd remove myself and observe (perhaps, too, b/c of my Aqua Moon?) - I was always the quiet one..."Oh, isn't Corri so deep and so adult for her age? Why, she's 5 going on 35!" And I'd rush out to protect others, and almost seemed to search for animals to heal (my Mom has some doves that return each year thanks to me).

I still have a "tough" facade much of the time, but some - especially the Scorp Sun Males that I've come across - size me up pretty quickly: "You seem so tough and self-reliant, jaded almost, but you're not...under that's this really soft, feminine nature," are the near-enough verbatim words of one such guy after all of a week of association...it took my poor Taurus ex, geez, nearly 3 years of friendship in HS and 7 months or so of dating to say, "Wow - you're sensitive! That's cool! I didn't think you were..."

But I do have to admit that - true to my chart and my 10th House Mars, I guess - I get genuinely aggressive in the classroom (my real work for the moment) when debating or probing for answers. I won't stop until I get to the bottom of an assertion, and it really p*sses some profs off - but to be fair, they do have a schedule, and I'll just keep going on if unfettered.

As for my Pluto, it's in the 12th - just what effect would that have on my Scorp Asc?
Oh, and then there's my Uranus - it's in Scorpio, but on the far end from the 1st House cusp.

I have been skipping class. Sorry ! But I am back and willing to post my score.

I am Cancer with Virgo rising and my Mercury is in Gemini on my MC so what I feel and others too is that I behave like a Gem. most of the time. I am extremely fickle (almost sickmakening and in my head Aqua moon) the chameleon type. Plus I have the moodiness and changeability of my Cancer side! Conclusion: Changing all the time. Tomorrow is another day só different!
I do have lot's of Virgo traits obviously. But I spend a lot of my time at work (obviously....only 9 hours a day but still it's a lot )and people there find my quicksilvery, very Mercurial . So yep, you can really see how the ruler of the horoscope works through the whole thing. I have always wondered why I wasn't a Gemini? But ever since I started to look at my chart I know why I thought that!

But....I am still a very sensitive Cancer who cries at the drop of a hat!

I guess I asked the previous question because I've been reading a little lately about Sabian astrology-- I found an old Dane Rudhyar book called 'The Astrology of Personality' and in it there are distinctions made between the types of persoanlities associated with each decan.

Or is this something to hold onto for an Advanced course?

As a kid, I was quite a handful and I used to get into fights with class bullies double my size and win! This went on for sometime until one particular king kong made me face the reality - that I am no superman!
From then on, I kind of exercised more control over my "instant" emotions resulting in a sober, reserved personality.
This is the first face I present to new people and I am conscious about it. But, once I get pally with them, the iron curtain opens up and I am my usual jolly extrovert self, on a fabric of reservedness that may be needed - just in case!!
I think it pretty much matches an Aries Sun, Moon with a Scorpio Ascendant....would welcome any takes on this interpretation!
Cheers,
