cally77: That hubpages article was really good. Especially liked how he compared Scorpio to the deep seas
and Aquarius to the heaven's winds.

Wouldn't it be a nicer world if we saw people in those kind of terms



The one thing to keep in mind, when visiting and read articles on such a site, Cally (and Maya should make note of this, too) is that they ARE "commercial" sites! They EXIST to make money! And their "presentations" are slanted for THAT purpose! There's a LOT of "advertising" it the presentations, and how they're "worded/stated". But you need a background in language/propaganda, to pick up on most of it.

When reading, or listening to ANYTHING, it's normally good advice to consider the "agenda" of the speaker/writer. And TRUST ME, on this, a person WITHOUT an agenda, is rarer than than an intelligent/wise person! dunno handshake hug

cally77: I know a Scorpio/Aquarius couple (friendship couple that is) and I think it is one of the best friendships I've ever seen between two people...they are unseparable With that combination in one person is pretty cool I think.


It's complicated. laugh

cally77: Oh, by the way, Venus has moved into Aquarius at the moment, so good news for you


You think? flirty Happy!!! applause

I didn't explore further, but I think that the writer of that text is an astrologist with an attitude that any star combination can work. I think that he has other interesting articles about other star combinations, so you might want to search if interested. smile

cally77: Probably true - everyone should date a Leo at least once!


If they can handle a very big EGO and being presented everywhere as a trophy. laugh I've never dated a Leo, but had many Leo friends and always felt like some sort of a trophy. laugh They would present me everywhere with a pride: 'This is my friend. Look at her, isn't she great? She knows this and that and did this and that...' and I would just stand there, smiled and felt ridiculous. laugh I know they never meant anything wrong with that, but it was funny anyway. laugh

cally77: A wise approach to it


Which translation/interpretation of I Ching do you use? smile

I found some interesting I Ching pages:


(this one is especially interesting, since it deals with love and romance)

Maybe, but it gives interesting insights and there are many comments of the people in those relationships one could relate to. smile

By the way, one of my friends is Libra Sun, Libra Ascendant, also an introverted person. She is beautiful and easy to get along with, but somehow... unnoticeable. She's calm and composed, but nothing else. There's no depth, no real 'presence'. It's hard to explain...


What does it mean when someone's natal chart is unbalanced? I've recently met a person with such a strange natal chart - just one triangle on the right side of the chart.

Let_Us: Funny you should say that, Cally! I'm NOT ONLY a Libra, "I" have a Libra ascendant! But, as you can read, here, I'm NOT the "best liked" poster in/on the foruns! But I have a somewhat "unusual" chart. ALL my planetary influences fall in/on the left side of my chart! It's VERY "UNbalanced". And, UNlike most Libras, I've NEVER felt any "compulsion" to/for "relationships". It's NOT that I disdain relationships. I enjoy people/relationships as much as any other Libra. But I've NEVER "sacrificed" MYSELF, to/for them. I've ALWAYS, in ALL ways, been extremely independent and assertive. But then, somewhat strangely, I'm an introverted personality type, whereas most Libras are more "gregarious" personalities. And I'm NOT disposed to "mediate" relations between people/groups.



In some ways you seem more like an Aries. And I've read that in astrology they look at the axis of a person's chart, and Aries-Libra is on the same axis, though opposite ends. Perhaps Aries is the shadow-side of Libra and you have worked out of that position rather than the more obvious and extraverted Libra position? Just a thoughttip hat

I wonder does it mean that the person with that kind of chart is very focussed? Or does it mean that they are unstable in their personality?

This is Audrey Tautou's chart:

cally77: What does everyone think about astrology? Astrologers say that people in the same element get on best - so an Air sign like Gemini would get on best with other Air signs like Aquarius and Libra? I'm an Aries and once dated a Libra - Libra and Aries are opposites in astrology and we were definitely opposites - it didn't last. One of my best experiences was with a Sagittarius, and that is in the Fire element like my sign. My best friend is a Leo - also a Fire sign!


i'm an aries, and having dated a libra, a couple times in the way back machine...i wouldn't do it again. laugh

my best experience has been with a Taurus. (and works really well when i listen....laugh )


i don't know what time i was born, so my knowledge on my own sign is limited. an while i certainly have aries characteristics...i feel more pisces than aries. my closest friend (of over 36 years) is a Cancer. My two other closest friends are Scorpio and Aquarius.

I feel I have a lot in common with Pisces too. Someone professionally involved in astrology thought I was Pisces and was shocked when I said I was Aries! With the precession of the equinoxes most of us are technically the sign previous to our usual star sign so in systems factoring that in, like the Vedic system, we are actually Pisces! I was hoping they'd have a fish emoji but no luck, just have to use this elephant

Maya74: I will check it out. Thank you.

I used to consult I Ching before a lot and always got correct answers. However, this time, I consulted it (3 times already! ) about someone who was very important to me, but we couldn't be together and each time I basically got good readings, quite positive and optimistic. Yet, in reality, nothing happens. We are more distant than ever and at the moment - I doubt that we would ever be in contact again, yet alone being able to 'grow together'. Something is obviously wrong. Maybe I Ching stopped working?

I have a translation made by one Serbian writer called David Albahari and - also - some interpretation I found in a PDF format, but don't really know who wrote it - yet it has very nice (modern) interpretations of hexagrams.



Time will tell about that special person you were consulting about...if the I Ching hexagrams were consistently positive I think it means it is a special connection you have with that person, but how the bond will play itself out in actuality is always hard to determine. Some of the special relationships I've had, have been with people I haven't seen for several years and then they come back into my life and the connection is as strong as ever. Those bonds are never (or rarely) broken.

Oh by the way, last summer I bought a book by a Serbian poet named Charles Simic, I have just finished the book now, it was amazing...have you heard of him?
