Star signs and the Zodiac

[bigbadwolf]

After reading the qualities associated with my star sign (Scorpio) I totally agree with all of them and was wondering what your views are and if you associate strongly with your star sign.

happy birthday.

There was another thread about this recently wasn't there?

Anyway, a quick google search reveals the following about me (aquarius)...

Strengths: Humanitarian, analytical, modern

Weaknesses: Unreliable, extremist, chaotic

Key characteristic: Iconoclastic

Perhaps I'm lacking in insight, but I'd say only one, maybe two, of those are actually true of me.

[HonaloochieB]

I was born under the sign of Derry & Toms.

I've checked and apparently I am destined to repeat the same joke I once read in a Monty Python book forever.

Uncanny, and people say there's nothing in it.

[microbite]

Have to say am Taurean and quite a lot of the traits associated with my sign are actually true where I am concerned, if I'm being honest, but not all of them,

Taurus Strength Keywords:

- Dependable

- Persistent

- Loyal

- Patient

- Generous

Taurus Weakness Keywords:

- Stubborn

- Laziness

- Possessive

- Self-indulging

Taurus in a Nutshell:

Taurus is the one who has immense perseverance, even when others have given up, the Taurus rages on. Solid and persistent, just like the bull, which is Taurus' well suited symbol. Taurus's have a well known reputation for being stubborn, which is not necessarily a bad thing. The stubborn streak can cause Taurus to butt heads and conflict with other strong character types. Taurus are not fond of change. They like the familiar and routine comfort of life. Taurus is easy going and not one to pick a fight but should some poor souls attempt to provoke Taurus, the wrath will be known, for they have a temper underneath the calm surface. Taurus are very responsive to their surroundings. They like decorations, color, anything that appeals to all the senses. Taurus like possessions and the Taurus home is nicely decorated with lots of things. Taurus are down to earth, they do not like gaudy, flashy or over the top things. They prefer comfortable and creative settings and objects. Taurus likes security, in every aspect of their lives from home, to love, to career. Taurus can be secretive, opinionated and stingy. Taurus tend to be self-indulgent and lazy, Taurus are master procrastinators of the astrology zodiac! They do however have a strong, persistent drive that comes to life when they chose, and no one would ever know that they are lazy. The secret to this is that their laziness is pushed aside when it comes to themselves

Actually Microbite, all that's missing from that is WLTM non-smoker with GSOH. Will travel.

I have to say, kind of contradictory when you look on it, on the one hand it says one of my strengths is that I'm generous and on the other in the summary it says I'm really stingy, am the most generous person I know! and of course modest with it.... persistent yet lazy!

[PeckhamRose]

I am also Taurean and share all the characteristics.

It is true I can be very persistant about matters of principle, but am lazy when it comes to exercise. So maybe that's what it meant.

However, I remember a documentary about this and how it was such nonsense, proving it to be so.

Down to earth, another good Taurean trait!

[HonaloochieB]

I'm getting Richard Dawkins on this.

Remember how he took apart the water diviners and homeopaths?

He'll make mincemeat of this lot. Just in time for Christmas.

I bet he and his Dr Who assistant wife will wryly chuckle on the irony.

Let's hope the chuckling is a comfort to them both as they descend into the firiest pit of Hell.

Hasn't changes in something - I think it's the gradual movement in stars and time- Meant that our star signs are about 15 days out of sync to when the whole kaboodle was set up, which truly exposes it as the whole load of hokum pokum supersticious nonsense it was in the first place

Gradual movement in stars and time? 15 days out of sync? Kaboodle? Hokum pokum?

Let's see see Jonathon Cainer and Shelley so-called Von Strunkel, talk their way out of that little lot.

Good man Quids.

What he said.

I'm a rational logical intelligent kind of guy and I'm struggling with it. But it's my birthday on Monday, yay me.

Today's horoscope

I'm, gemini: "It's a great day to reflect on what you've been up to lately. The police can't hear the voices in your head."

[Tony.London Suburbs]

Its a load of old *****ers!

I always asked the Wimmin' where I have worked over the years to guess my sign and,on average,they usually got it around 7th attempt....and then said "I thought so!":))

As if anyone could guess my Star Sign from the character traits that I have exhibited,thus far,on here,for example.

They go on a bit as well

Those crazy Wimming - Tony have you spent your entire career in the company of militant followers of Gaia?

Surely the whole point of the contradictory character descriptions is so that anyone reading will identify with some of the characteristics, ignoring those that don't fit with their picture of themselves.

A load of old bollocks - fun though

I agree with both paragraphs.:-$

Of course you would, typical Gemini.
