sSeptember 24th. I don't use it when I sign up for things though. There is probably only one thing in the entire world that is online AND has my real birthday attached to it -- I didn't set it up myself. Anyway, I'm on the Virgo/Libra cusp, unless you are using the other attributed chart in which case, well, I just forgot what I am but it is not the Othiciliciosusicussss one. I looked it up. Tropical date, Siderial astrological sign I am a Libra though I guess I'd still be on the cusp (I can't make out whether or not they account for that?) But I'm a Virgo straight through if you use just a Siderial date Also cool, while looking for a chart I came across this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natal_chart I need somebody with way too much time on their hands to do this for me LOL Sorry to hijack the thread folks! |

I thought sept 24 was virgo straight up. (I'm of the Linda Goodman school of astrology, I don't believe in cusps, but I do believe in the influence of other planets in your chart.)

It's Virgo or Libra straight up depending on what you read or cusp if you read those too. Which translates to "girl's just confused" which is very muchme. Indybg, how'd you guess I was a Libra? LOL I once read a wonderful summary of traits for each one and I was letter-perfect for Libra and Virgo.

It takes one to know one I have this phenomenal book on the mix of western and eastern astrology. It is the only book in which the description for my sign (in eastern and western astrology) is me from a to z. What are you in Chinese astrology Mama T? |

Tracy, I just read yours and it sounds so wrong, but I am going to write it anyway.
The book is called The New Astrology.
Aries/Dragon:
courage, drive, heartiness, affability, talent, enterprise, naivete, ostentaion, willfulness, excess, sanctimony, domination, strenght, success, good health, enthusiasm, pluck, sentimentality, rigidity, mistrust, dissatisfaction, infatuation, braggadocio, volubility
Your ruling elements: western: "I am", fire, Mars, Cardinal; eastern: "I preside", positive wood, Yang
"Here, in the Aries/Dragon, we find a crackling combination of raw Aries energy and Dragon pluck and guile. It's an unbeatable concoction. Aries/Dragon burns to get ahead in life. Nothing can stop the brand of will and enterprise born into this subject.
Guile, normally so foreign to the Aries' basic nature, will color every stone the Dragon born an Aries overturns. These people are not only devious; they are not just crafty; they are so self confident that you hardly notice your silverware is missing. Aries/Dragon do not ever appear shifty. They are ladies and gentlemen. And to hear them talk you would think they were positively callow!
"Did that Aries/Dragon woman really wait till her husband was away on business to steal the whole household of furniture, the children and the bank balance? Did she really move to Hong Kong with her lover?"
"Oh yes. She really did that. She picked up and she left. Without a forwarding address."
"Did she leave her husband a note?"
"No. Just the dog. She knew that he was very fond of the dog. A dachshund named Darling."
"How strange. Why do you suppose she lifted everything but the dog?"
"She is very sentimental."
The impeccable Aries/Dragon melts when confronted with sadness. Aries/Dragon fall for all sob stories. Sentimentality is very often their undoing. An Aries/Dragon boss may hate his employee with a green disgust. But if said employee comes crying for a raise, Aries/Dragon sendds out for Kleenex and a fountain pen to sign the guy's check.
There's no other way to tell it. Aries/Dragon are irresistible. THey possess unmitigated attractiveness. THey give off a kind of brute heat that topples even the iciest opposition. Don't leave your wife in the same room with an Aries/Dragon if you want to get her home intact. Even a five minute exposure to the rays emanating from the boyish Aries/Dragon will invest her eyes with indelible blinding stars. And Aries/Dragon women are so gorgeous! Oh, it's awful. When a certain Aries/Dragon woman I know comes onto the beach, all the other women bury themselves in the sand.
There is, of course, the danger of arrogance here. So much fire and so little temperance coupled with looks and taste and success-well, it's an incendiary combination.
Aries/Dragon may inspire envy. Their inveterate cunning drives strong, direct people to distraction. Why, wonders the plain spoken hard driving straight arrow, does the Aries/Dragon always try to get away with trickery? Can't he see that we are on to him? Can't he tell that after years we have been vaccinated against his wiles?
Answer: Yes.
Aries/Dragon can see that the straight shooting Sheriff John Wayne-type character has got his number. But that will never deter Aries/Dragon from trying to have a little fun at the sheriff's expense. To the Aries/Dragon it's all a game anyway. He has the magic touch. So why should he deprive himself of lfauntintit?
Actually, underneath the slick exterior, the Aries/Dragon is touchingly sincere. He does not make friends easily. He cares deeply about everyone he undertakes to love. And Aries/Dragon are capable of true flaming passionate attachments. They are essentially good and well meaning. But they can not resist their own adorableness. They like to bask in their own sunshine, get the most out of life and tear into everyting do with living.
Joyce, I am sorry for stealing your thread!

Mama T, Libra/Goat
Justice, aesthetics, charm, gentility, equilibrium, iealism, quarrelsomeness, manipulation, procrastination, self indulgence, indecision, talkativeness, invention, lack of foresight, perseverance, whimsy, good manners, impracticality, parasitism, sensitivity, tardiness, pessimis, taste, worry
Western: "I balance," Air, Venus, Cardinal
Eastern: " I depend," Negative Fire, Yang
"Ostensibly a dependent lover of beauty and equilibirium, this person claims to need a peaceful environment, but we know better. Librans born in Goat years are testy and quarrelsome people. They love an argument, a good old heated discussion, and challenge. The Libra/GOat requires the regard of his peers. He likes to be looked at, contemplated, taken seriously and admired. To this end, the libra/goat will do almost anything-once.
With Libra and goat under the same roof, people born in this sign will be doubly attracted to languor and finesse. They truly prefer to furnish their lives with ornate classics and line their walls with books than to spend time and money on trendy wardrobes or spiffy automobiles. If these charaters are social climbers (and they are), they prefer to climb culturally rather than merely to be included in the annals of society party giving or going. Libra/goats are a bit light headed. But they are not supeficial. There is great creativity in the libra/goat nature. This person, provided the ambience is secure and safe, cna invent and imagine all manner of craft and artisanry. I would not say this subject is a gifted artist in the Picasso sense. But there is, inside the libra/goat head, a sort of Byzantine kaleidoscopic imagination. The libra/goat leaps from idea to idea with a special rapid grace all his own. He understands the labyrinthine. He comprehends complexity, and is superbly talented in all sorts of communication.
One of the goat/libra handicaps is his unwillingness to believe in self. I say unwillingness rather than inability because the phenomenon is more a refusal than a lack. "I can't. Who cares? Who wants to listen to little old me? It is not really important. Never mind." That's the kind of talk you hear from nondirected Librans born in GOat years.
You see, Librans born in Goat years are extremely sensitive. In their youth they are often drawn to strong, stable types whose very presence seems to promise to shore up the libra/goat limpish wrists. Then, after a while, when the weirdo libra/goat sees just what a high price he must pay to be "normal' and "stable", when he grasps the useless boring sameness of a life without creation or experiment, he bolts. But this bolting seems to libra/goat a terribly cowardly act. He is disappointed in normalcy. But he blames his disappointment on his own unwillingness to "go straight."
This, in turn, makes him lose confidence in himself. As he never had masses of self belief in the first place, this makes him less effective, and a vicious circle effect sets in.
Libra/goats are excessive. They are vulnerable to addiction. They are ambitious and fashion conscious. They are inventive and talented in all sorts of glamour related pursuits. The trouble with libra/goat, besides their intermittent lack of self assurance, is that they tend to dispers their energies ni too many flittings about. They are easily distracted. They must learn to settle on one idea and push it through to its logical conclusion. And they must seek the wisdom of those more thoughtful and sagacious than they. It is by heeding good advice and not flying off the handle till the wood is all chopped that Librans born in Goat years will succeed.
