Please state your zodiac sign and explain. Have you found them to be true about others?

I'm a Cancer Leo cusp and I think I'm a lot more complicated than my Zodiac sign.

Hi,

my natal chart fits with me.

I have Neptune in V house in Scorpio, Mars in Scorpio, a conjunction Venus - Moon, a trine Jupiter - Moon... well just an example to explain how my turning into feminine is somehow inscribed in my natal chart.

Neptune is metamorphosis in the sexual house, maybe this transformation affects also Mars (masculinity): both are in Scorpio. And Scorpio is a sign of transformation, death and reborn.

Venus and Moon in conjunction form a very feminine aspect and the Moon is in trine with Jupiter.

The trine Moon - Jupiter suggests a sensitivity that will grow during life, the feminine side (Moon) is "destined" to increase bc is amplified by the expansive action of Jupiter.

Now Neptune is in transit in IX and in opposition to natal Sun = the active part of myself is put into deep crisis and ... the action of Neptune tends to feminize transforming and putting into deep crisis the solar static nature which would pretend to be eternal and immutable.

So... in this situation i'm actually moving to start transition.

Maybe that when Uranus will transit in opposition to natal Mars  (and this will happen in the future) there will be the SRS... maybe, i cannot say now.

Anyway the symbology fits ... and is pretty amazing to look at what is happening in my life from this perspective.

Hugs,
Aly

That's more complicated than I expected. A long time ago I looked up my full natal chart at laughed at how opposite it was with me. What website did you get yours? I'm going to look up mine again and see if my perspective is different than it was a few years ago.

I've studied astrology on my own, what i wrote is not something you can find online, it's my own interpretation. The profiles you could find online are not accurate...

Sorry if i wrote too much and in a very technical way, but this is the only way for me to approach astrology.

PS: the "zodiac sign" is just the position of the Sun - the Sun is just ONE planet - there are also the other planets to consider, the aspects and the "houses". That's why the interpratation of the mere zodiac sign is reductive and seems not to fit.

If you want a quick shot look up moon nodes .

You might look up rising sign, moon sign, and ascendent.
Those and their aspects might give some hints.

There are websites with texts but it might take some intuition to find out what fits.

This all should be guidelines for a development in a direction that fits.

Don't take it too seriously. Nothing is predetermined.

I'm Cancer with Leo cusp also; I can relate to some of the characteristics attributed to my sign, and the same holds true for Numerology, and other such things; it's fun, but I don't put much stock into any of it.

I didn't realize astrology was this complicated. I guess it IS considered a legitimate science, right? I was just thinking about the basic sun signs.

Thanks for the ideas, Laura. I have never known what to think of astrology and only question it because quite a few of my friends have an interest in it and always post stereotypes about what's typical of each sign on facebook. I thought it seemed petty though.

Astrology is considered an old science. People watched the skies and connected it with peoples features.
There are many levels to it.

One is like a snapshot made from birth.
But people evolve from there.

The other is the integration of energies, like influences of moving planets.

The aforementioned moon nodes can give a quick snapshot.

Well when people talk about signs its usually the sun sign.
This is suposed to shine through later in life.
Often its the ascendent which people show to the outside.
So it can be already complicated there, and thats why it may seem petty and some people feel they are not that typically described.
Having a look at the major three factors as described above could lead to more info.
Its just that many people see it as a static description and tend to try to stick to interpretations.
Its not, people evolve and are not only two dimensional.
Thats why there are experienced astrologists, they know how to adapt to how people are.

But there is something to it otherwise it would not have been used for centuries.

And well what your friends do might help a bit with intuition and just getting a feeling for other people.... if they can get away from too flat descriptions of people ....

For me astrology is a Science but not something to believe in, it's not a faith.

My approach is scientific i just relate to it checking how much it's accurate with me and with changes in my life, but i don't believe in it - the same does a scientist facing a theory, it may fit in some ways with something but what he finds doesn't become a faith ... something to believe in ...

Anyway is very fascinating and interesting, the deeper you go into it the more u find... but u won't find "answers".

What i like of astrology is to see that is not weird to think the we are really part of what we call "Universe", we are not separate from cosmos, ... if astrology is true ... then we are the cosmos itself, or one of its infinite ways to manifest itself.

Aly

In the general sense I would say yes. 95% of it.

I've always thought that someone who's really easily influenced would read their description and automatically start acting just like the horoscope traits said, especially if they were a kid when they started reading it. I know women in their mid to late 20s who keep posting things about zodiac signs on facebook and I think it seems silly, but they enjoy it. Bless you.

I suppose it might be worth asking this: Is my zodiacal sign is the one established two millennia ago, or is it the one determined by the current location of the sun on my birthday? The locations have changed by six weeks one that period of time due to precession.  Second, which definitions do I use?

Just asking. I'm such a nerd sometimes.

Wow. I wish I was nerdy enough to understand that.

The Zodiac Wheel is tied to the seasonal changes - the wheel symbolically starts at the spring equinox with Aries and ends at the same point with Pisces. Astrology is not "astronomy". Actually on 21st of march 2016 the sun didn't rise in Aries astronomical constellation, but just in its symbolical association.

The equinox precession marks the great astrological "eras", the Age of Aries, the Age of Pisces, the Age of Aquarius etc... but it's irrelevant in natal charts.

The zodiac sign is not the one established two millennia ago, it's the one related to the seasonal wheel of the year.

To a degree but recently iv'e been finding to to apply to me on such a level i'm fascinated
I am a Aries!   

I am a Virgo.  I have no idea what that means astrologically.  But, for the first 30 years of my life, I was literally a "virgo" (sorry: TMI), so does that count?

Well Aquarius and I suppose it's right.

QuoteAquarius Traits : The Aquarius-born people are humanitarians to the core. They are a progressive and modern lot. Broad-minded and creative, they are the real truth-seekers. Being affectionate and friendly by nature, the Aquarius-born are very attractive and popular. However, their frankness can cut both ways. Within limits it can be a positive quality, but when it borders on the insensitive, it can really hurt people and alienate them from their friends and loved ones. Besides, as they do not open up emotionally too soon, not many people can relate to them. So, though they may have many friends, not many of them will be close friends. Being unpredictable is another negative trait that works against them.

Positive Qualities of Aquarius : Truthfulness, Just, Curious, Affectionate Personality, Frank and Imaginative.

Negative Qualities of Aquarius : Unpredictable, Detachment, Tendency to go off-track, and Inefficiency.

Being diagnosed with ADHD and trying to self medicate it with vitamins and minerals I'd say it's very true. Especially in the way I'm posting :S

Pisceans are supposed to be artistic, emotional, meek, spiritual, empathetic, etc.

Well my profession is artistic... but the rest is pretty much under wraps because some of those traits aren't all that helpful.

I know a lot of pisceans who are nothing like the "description".

In Chinese astrology I'm also a Ram, which is pretty much the equivalent of the piscean "sensitive artist" too.
