Lmao!
What a
hilarious thread!
Before I state my votes (just 2), I've got to give Linda Goodman her Props, because if it wasn't for her books back in the day, the list would have been longer, because ---being an Aries Sun--- I would have taken it all
personally, because it's ALL ABOUT
ME, DAMNIT! LOL.
Bwahahahaha...
Okay. I voted for Virgo & Pisces. I probably should have included Capricorn in the pool too, while I was at it, but -eh. Cappies and I get along rather well, the older they get (thanks in part, no doubt, to their bizarre reversed-aging process
).
Virgos... Man. I don't know. Totally make my brain hurt overall. Generally, a good group to know. But oh. My. God. Ironing the shorts of a 4-year-old because you "don't want him to walk around looking like a schmuck"?!? A
4-year-old?
Ironing his shorts?
Mind you, the person doing the ironing (and washing the same kid's work boots --because, god forbid-- they're practically brand new and they got mud on them) is actually one of my beloved Sagittariuses.
However, she has Virgo Moon and a Virgo Sun Man who brings out her Moon
baaaaaahd. (And yes, I did just
bah. I am an ewe, afterall.)
My half-sister is a Virgo, and I keep thinking how it's probably a good thing we didn't grow up together; me being borderline slob and her being, well, a
Virgo.
LOL...
Another Virgo I know is only anal about 2 things that I can think of (but he's a perfectionist overall about everything): Washing his hands, and loving his Gemini wife. They've been married now for... 40-some years? Sweet.
Pisces... LOL. Strange that I'd pick on Pisces considering my Neptune (and Moon) hangs out in the 1st house, and my Mercury and Venus are both in Pisces. But that Scorpio Rising and Scorpio Moon won't ever let me forget that wishy-washy-waffling boyfriend I had back in the 3rd-5th grades. At first it was fun that he always said, "Whatever you want to do is fine with me." Whoo hoo! Bighorn Ram in CHARGE! But then it got old. That beta thing... <shudders> I prefer my men more Alpha than that!
Amusingly enough, however, it's my Pisces placements and my Sun-sign Sagittarius husband's Pisces placement (his Mars is in Pisces) that cause the deepest conflicts in our house. His Sag Mercury so
cannot relate to my dreamy "Welcome to Krysialand where life is beautiful and full of love and romance all the time" mental state (i.e. I LOVE to read --and write-- romance novels), where his mental state is, "Why do you read that crap all the time. You should read ---insert long, dreary, non-fiction, depressing book here--- instead!" And my Aries Sun reacts negatively to that Mars in Pisces placement when he pulls that "Nail me to the cross, I'm a martyr to the Aries will" victim passive-aggressive crap. There are times when I swear I'm gonna get him 2 pieces of wood and some stakes for Christmas. Oh, and a ladder. LOL.
But I love him dearly. I don't know too many Pisceans. Though I work with several of them, and they are wonderful. Perhaps it's just the men in a romantic setting that I find off-putting. The men as buds and the ladies as colleagues... Not a problem.
As to my favorite signs...
As a fire sign, I seem to attract fire signs and I'm definitely attracted
to Sagittarius and Leo. Male Aries... hm. Sometimes, but there's definitely an edgey vibe. Almost like a fork gone wrong on a plate. Female Aries... Notsomuch. Don't really get along with them at all. Clashing a definite there. But Leo and Sag...
I can usually feel them in a crowd. In fact, I used to date nothing but Leos... until one freaking male nearly ruined the whole pride. Superficial bastid. I don't blame all Leos for that schmo's stupidity... But outside of my birth mother and daughter, I'd have to think
really hard to see if I knew of any. Oh! My Cancer mom-in-law has Leo Rising.
There.
But Sages on the other hand...
LOVE THEM! Gave birth to one. Married one. My brother's one. My sister's one. My best friend is one. My niece and nephew are one (two?). My favorite aunt who passed away was one. My OB-GYN is a Cancer with Sag Rising (how perfect is that for that profession!)
Another sign I love?
Scorpio.
Poor Scorps have been getting a bad rap on this poll. <pretty, pretty Scorpios!>
Granted, I'm sure my Rising and Moon in Scorpio help with the whole compatibility thing, but then, we
used to share a ruling planet, and I think that on some level, we still do.
A Scorpio is a wonderful friend to have, especially if they're male.
(Kind of like how having a Republican for a friend is always a good thing to have, because who else will have what it takes to get your freak Democratic or Liberal butt out of a tight spot? LOL! But I digress...)
What I love about Scorpios, is that there's never any guessing where you stand with a Scorpio. There's few, if any, gray areas. They're some of
the most loyal friends on the planet, and they --Aries-like, must be that shared Mars thing
-- truly understand the "love me, hate my enemies" rule. (My beloved Sag husband prefers to get philosophical about why he should hate my enemies. Hello? Because
I said so, and they're
my enemies? Did you
not see the curled horns on my head for cryin' out loud?
LOL!) And they're blunt: If you want to know,
truly want to know if your ass looks fat in those jeans, call upon your Scorpion friend. They'll say, "Hell, yeah!
What were you
thinking? I
told you those jeans made your butt look like the broad side of a barn." And perhaps laugh at you. But then, they'll let you borrow their own special butt-slimming jeans and help you do the "smoky sexy sensual eye thing" with your makeup.
Also? If you need a good revenge scheme? Your Scorpio friend has written La Book de Veng'ance.
I'd go on about the other signs, but I've already Bogarted this thread as it is.
But if you're
truly curious, by all means, let me know, and I'll continue. Don't forget --- I'm an Aries, out-talked only by the Air Trio.
Bwahahahaha!
