I had this whole post written up yesterday and it magically disappeared, which really torks me off because anytime I spend on the computer typing means my fingers swell up like little sausages and that's just uncomfortable. Plus I look like Will Smith from Hitch, well my fingers look like his face did, or whatever.
I spent almost an hour on the phone with my sister yesterday. I have no idea why really or what we even talked about other than astrological signs, how awesomely fat her baby is, some lady nursing a vicious toddler at the pool (apparently he gnawed on her boob like it was a steak or something), and why I keep trying to re-invent the wheel. All important things I'm sure. What I can't believe is the fact that I actually talked on the phone for that long. Usually I lose interest about 30 seconds in and start wondering when the last time I ate was. I have problems.
Anyways, back to the astrological signs part of our conversation. My sister is a believer in the truthfulness of astrological signs. Me, much less but oddly intrigued. You shant find me saying something like "oh yeah he's such a Capricorn", or anything like that. But I do like it when my horoscope says something along the lines of "fortuitous times are ahead financially!". I myself am a Scorpio. Le Hub is a Gemini (on the cusp? huh?), Son #1 is a Leo and Son #2 looks to be a Virgo.
What does this all mean? I have no idea.
Are you into the stars and planet alignment? I suppose with my mastery of The Secret and all I should be more in touch with the forces of the universe so maybe I'll start brushing up.
Tell me, what's your sign?
Do you feel it accurate and why for?

Nah, astrology means nothing to me. I've transferred all my magical mystery love over to fortune cookies.
But hey, when I was a little girl and found out I was a DRAGON according to the Chinese zodiac? Instant self-esteem! It was pretty great as a painfully shy, socially retarded tot to learn that I was actually POWERFUL and MIGHTY and (whoa, man) DIVINE. Hey, kid, how would you feel about being regarded as a MASTER OF AUTHORITY and a deliverer of GOOD FORTUNE? Sure, I'll take some of that! I had this amulet for a while that I wore everywhere. It had a dragon on one side and the Chinese character for it on the other. I think I can even remember signing my name "Dragon Lady" a few times. Har-de-har. Sure, there are some dragon-born qualities that seem to match mine, but if you told me I was a rat or a horse or a rabbit, I'd find some there too.
By the way, I'm an Aries. You know, a totally agressive butt-head? You could tell, right?
I'm an Aries. The hub is a Gemini. According to this witch lady (or a friend of a friend that believes in all the astrology mumbo) we hate each other, and our marriage is will end in divorce. I think we do quite well. My daughters are both Aquarius and they'll both hate me when they grow up...according to the witch.
i'm a virgo. and i AM a virgo. organization is my friend.
Scorpio. But I have no idea what the hell that means.
I'm a Gemini, and it suites me well according to my husband. He tries to blame my going all crazy one second and fine the next on the fact that I'm a Gemini...I blame it on the fact that he's a butt-head sometimes. :)
I'm a Cancer. That's the crab, you know. But I missed the cutoff for Gemini by one day, and I used to think (when I was a teenager and reading the horoscopes in Seventeen) that I fit Gemini better than Cancer. Huh? Anyway, I have crabs!
i steer clear of anything the "suze" preaches. but i am a water-bearer- so if you're thirsty...
I'm a pisces and half of everything I read about pisces explains me perfectly. The other half was written for someone else.
Ultimately my opinion on astrology is based on my association of a pair of twins. These twins are completely different than one another and I refuse to believe the "placement of the moon" effected one bit of it. Spirits simply come as they are.
Astrology is in the same vein as reading tabloid covers at the check out. Slightly entertaining, and when it's right about me I believe it and when it's totally off base it's crap. It's more for laughs than anything.
me? I'm a Scorpio married to a Virgo and together we're raising a Scorpio. Notice the caps on those signs. That's cuz I totally drink that Koolaid. I don't think zodiac is a determinant of personality, but I do think it has an influence. (But so do a lot of other things.) Still, I totally plan pregnancies around zodiac signs I'd like my kids to be.
In our family we are Aries,Taurus,Sagittarius and Capricorn,no wonder we love animals!
Oh, yeah...I'm such a Capricorn.
I don't know...sometimes I read it and think it is dead on, other times...like when it says I'm temperamental, fat, stubborn and lazy...I don't so much agree.
