Schlump, it doesn't matter, because it all has to do with the alignment of the planets at the time of your birth. So unless you were born in 2011, you're still the sign you are.

ty! i was curious about this for awhile, it seemed like a real spanner in the works. am real impressed if they've recalibrated for the new season.

i have a moon sign of cancer, btw, & the personality description is kinda right on. also i feel like the q of what cancers are like in bed is hinted at via the zodiac sign:

Guys guys, my date was AWESOME OMG :)

(hes a Taurean)

alright i found out that my sun is in aries, my moon is in scorpio, and my ascendent is leo, diagnosis me!

Awesome, trayce :) :)

Trayce, you're a Pisces? Taurus and Pisces are a good match.

Bene.... that is... a really interesting combo. Like, you are pure sex. Scorpio is highly sexual. Also very secretive. They can have some enemies, as they can instantly identify bullshit straight away and are very honest. Some people don't like that. I have a planet in Scorpio, too, and I am secretive sometimes. Also, a perv. The moon sign is how you see yourself, how you feel emotions, and how you feel love. Scorpio probably is more in line with how you described yourself above. NOW--let me tell you this. Scorpio is a very misunderstood zodiac sign. I think Leo is balancing that out nicely for you. Leois friendly, playful, proud, loves attention. This is how others see you since it's your rising sign.

Virgo, rising sign Aquarius(!), moon sign Virgo(!)

This can't bode well . . . ?

homo are you serious????

uh why wouldnt I be?
I am not an astrologer though so take it for what it's worth

What if I'm Virgo sun, Scorpio moon/rising? That seems like a weird combo, but I am pretty weird.

On second thought, let's just forget I ever posted that. Carry on.

I just mean do you actually put any stock in this info

YES I LOVE THIS!
i'm definitely a perv.

h II, analyze me, please.

conrad, sssshhhhhh.

I think it's pretty clear based on my posts above that I do

sorry I didn't read them :X

has anybody been getting "X is near you RIGHT NOW!" alerts on their phone

From okc? No. That would weird me out. I dont have an app installed tho.

i got an update that a 5'10" hot chick who wants tall men only and is in a committed relationship but is up for straying was nearby me as i was on the treadmill.
it did not aid my workout

i used to get those when i had an app on my phone...during the day at WORK from the same people (with "X would like to meet you!) and it creeped me out so hard i deleted the app.

Virgo and Aquarius is an interesting combo!

Virgo--earth sign, knowledge seeker, can be a bit judgemental, a bit stuffy sometimes, very introspective, contemplative. Aquarius--friendly, expressive, creative, non-commital, indecisive.

Virginia Plain, are you a pretty popular person? As rising sign of Aquarius, a lot of people probably like being around you. You probably have a wide net of acquaintances? Aquarius also tends to like to keep things pretty light, opting for a lot of friendships rather than settling on one partner. But maybe as a Virgo you may feel misunderstood and slightly misanthropic so this may not be the case. To win your heart someone has to be very intelligent.

2nd date tonite fuckin hyped

Thanks, h II. I'm not unpopular, but I wouldn't say I'm supra popular either, except at work, among the 12 & under crowd. I'm surprised I have Aquarius rising, because I always thought that Aquarians were kinda weirdos.

I definitely look for intelligent people...but then again, don't must of us? What do you think of Vedic astrology?

Hey Mandee - wanna do me? I'm a Capricorn but am nothing like I am supposed to be and don't really believe any of this stuff but maybe you'll surprise me! December 28th, New York City, 9:45 pm.

put up a profile this morn. just got an IM inquiring about my kink preferences. dunno about this.

mandee--if you want to offer more astrological insights, i'm cancer/july 9/noonish/wash state

just to plug an alternative - i met a girly through tastebuds - last.fm offshoot - and its going p well. possibly okc puts too much emphasis on similarities for some of us in matching.

Hey guys FYI I need to know what year you were born for the rising and moon signs, too :)

taurus and pisces is kinda a weird one - i think there are other factors that would need to be known to see whether it would "work" or not. Taurus is a fixed sign, (along with Aquarius, Leo, and Scorpio) whereas Pisces is not - which is good, in that two fixed signs in a relationship is often a bad bad sign (lol). It isn't quite like the non-fixed sign will be dominated by the person of the fixed sign, but the person of the non-fixed sign is more likely to adapt to their partner in more of a significant way personality-wise. Tauruses are known to be stubborn and loyal. They are generally motivated by the phrase "i have" - which often is about material possessions or other earthly matters (e.g. an important job, a hot girlfriend, a reputation as a badass among the people in the scene). they tend to be hedonists.

mandee--1974 for me, moon in pisces it looks like.

I don't know, I'm a Taurus... I don't feel "fixed" - I am usually the one to adapt in a relationship. But this is part of my T-square that I mentioned above (it's a struggle, i.e.)

i like how this is an astrology thread now. i'm libra aquarius aquarius. triple air.

i think the thing about "fixed" signs is more that they are more consistently "themselves"

xp - haha, no wonder you come across as a know-it-all, T!

yeah sorry it became a huge derail. Maybe I'll start a separate thread.

and then there's the issue of "age" to consider, like you can divide the signs into 3 ages: young, middle-aged, and old, which breaks down like this:

young: aries, taurus, gemini, cancer
middle: leo, virgo, libra, scorpio
old: sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius, pisces

in a pisces - taurus relationship, the pisces partner is likely to feel maternal/paternal and worry about their partner's hedonistic impulses and overindulgence, whether it's eating/drinking/drug use, spending, workaholicism. but taurus could be good for pisces if the taurus is financially stable & secure, because pisces tends to need security of place/environment and is often not that good with money or tends to live at a subsistence level and doesn't have much of a "cushion" in that sense.

as far as homo2's "t square" goes - this is the taurus/scorpio opposition, right?

the main conflict is between "i have" and "i want"

xp - EnBB - your posts on IL Style definitely seem fitting with Capricorn in terms of your preferences for modesty and comfort

Reactivated and re-wrote my profile. Re-writing keeps it artificially high on the activity page so a lot of people have seen it, some have written. What I don't get is why isn't anyone who has written to me remotely attractive? I think I might be on that awful threshold where I take "better"-looking guys with too many personal problems over...other, more stable people. Or at least I wonder if I am. I've seen it in men, kind of a lot of them of a certain age, refusing to fall in like with women who aren't young (a lot younger, usually) and typically attractive. It's nagl. I'd rather be single than be one of those people.

am i of a certain age now

i suppose : /

Oh don't be silly, we're all of a certain age, or headed there. You could never be one of those people, you're far too smart and sensible. And sensitive. It takes a special kind of delusion of grandeur to think you're going to hook a 24-yo model or other sexy archetype, though, in preference to someone of an appropriate age who shares your interests etc but is not a sexy archetype. Necessarily. You know what I mean.

I was just thinking my last two dating attempts have been with guys who I thought were uncommonly attractive (to me) and both disasters (for me). Eh who knows.

oh, i was just questioning the range of "a certain age" but thanks mostly. i'm not sure 'sensitive' is a compliment for dudes who are online dating tho.

in any case, the less attractive are/have to be more aggressive re: messaging. such is the market and too bad if you're shy.

well xp

What if I'm Virgo sun, Scorpio moon/rising? That seems like a weird combo, but I am pretty weird.

That's a really interesting/awesome combo! I think about the moon sign as being about what you want, where your heart is (not romantically per se). Scorpios are very interested in understanding how people work and what motivates them. The sun sign is kinda the dominant aspect of the personality, it's kinda like a filter, maybe close to the Freudian notion of the ego. So, Virgo, as you probably know, is a fairly practical sign, and could be summed up as "I analyze." So, Virgos tend to focus on physical properties of things, being an earth sign and all. So, I can see how your study and knowledge of language and linguistics could demonstrate the Scorpio and Virgo interaction. Like, the idea that the way that people talk and the differences in language and dialect partially explain "how people work"

So anyway yeah, my okc date went really, really well - a whole weekend packed with hanging out and galleries and talking and music and movies. About time I had some success from this thing!

Yay Trayce! It's good to hear a success story after the doom and gloom on this thread. You deserve to have a wonderful dating experience after the hassle and disappointment.

Thanks! :) Yes, it is a good thing, I actually found myself thinking "THANK YOU universe" several times over the weekend. :)

Homo - 77.

trayce, i'm glad you had a good date!

you all know how i feel about dating people that want to date models :( i'm so, so over being a girlfriend only as a placeholder until someone hotter comes along.

i've heard a lot of guy friends, even ones i think are aware of feminism, talk about how they prefer to date women in their 20s because women in their 30s just want to settle down and have babies and they aren't ready for that, and it makes me want to scream/punch/cry.
