cally77: An Aquarius or Gemini would probably be the best match for you
but as everyone says - just going by sun sign alone is not very good astrology.
If you can find out what your Descendant sign is then that is probably
the best match for you! My Descendant is in Sagittarius and my best
relationship has been with a Sagittarian!!! (I didn't know anything
about this stuff when we were together, so it wasn't a mere self-fulfilling
prophesy!)


Good, BUT . . .

It's NOT "descendant", it''s the "AScendant" sign you're looking for/interested in! professor

chris27292729: Any concrete evidence,that astrology works.????


The thing people don't understand, about Astrology, is that it DOESN'T make predictions, in the sense of whether a person's going to die of cancer, or marry a redhead. That's NOT what Astrology deals with! It's SORTA like statistics! IF all other things are EQUAL (which they NEVER are) then THIS person is MOST LIKELY to choose THAT! While THAT person is more LIKELY to choose THIS. It's like a guy goes walking down a road. The road forks. One fork is sunny and warm. The OTHER fork is shady and cool. If the ONLY factor was the warm sun, or the cool shade, then the person would be MORE "INCLINED" to this, or that. But the warm sun, or the cool shade are NEVER the ONLY factors affecting the guys "choice"! So there IS NO "CERTAINTY"! Another example would be if a person had to make a choice, And his options were A, B, and C. ALL OTHER THINGS being equal, there's a 15% chance he's gonna choose A. A 45% chance he's gonna choose B. And a35% chance he;s gonna choose C. But THAT leaves him with a 5% chance of choosing NONE of the above! Astrology CAN'T make predictions, simply because ALL the factors are NEVER going to be known! ALL astrology CAN do, is give you "probabilities/predilections/tendencies". For BEST CASE scenarios! The BEST computers in the world can't PREDICT the weather! So HOW/WHY would you think that astrology can/could PREDICT human behavior? Which is EVEN MORE complicated, than the weather? You HAVE to know/understand your TOPIC, BEFORE you attempt to extract information from it! Which only a FEW of you have shown ANY familiarity with, so far! professor

Maya74: Maybe there are energies and forces much stronger than our own willpower, that affect our life and our choices. We are a small, but important part of a big tapestry of existence. Maybe astrology just tries to explain and understand those powers and our place in the world. :)

I agree with you, why does everything always have to be scientific and rational?! :) Let's bring some magic in our world. :)


You want "magic" Maya! Go for Geminis or Pisces! Pisces are the MOST "mystical/mysterious/intuitive" sign in the zodiac. And trying to "understand" THEIR "reasoning" is IMPOSSIBLE! Because they DON'T "reason"! And Geminis are ABSOLUTELY schizophrenic! Following a Gemini's mind is DIFFICULT for a Libran! And NOBODY ELSE should even TRY! So it SEEMS they're doing SOME TYPE of magic, even when they're sitting still! Which is ALMOST never! doh comfort

Maya74: Maybe we just have planets on the wrong places in our chart at the moment. But, planets move and so will our love luck with them.



There ARE no "wrong" places, Neda! oNLY different PLACES! But you're right in thinking that our "stars" are in constant motion, and are exerting ever changing influences of our lives! thumbs up hug teddybear

Let_Us: Hi Maya

It's interesting to know part of your horoscope. But let me warn you to be on your guard with Scorpios. Yes, your moon sign, your ascendant, and the houses all your other planets fall in, also influence your "view" of life. But your Sun sign IS your ruling house. And, as an Aquarian, you're an air sign. As such, you tend to be more intelligent, and freer/more flexible/open than other signs. But Scorpios are water signs, and air and water DON'T tend to "mix" well. Yes, I can understand how their passion and commitment/drive attract you. But you also have to understand that their passion and drive cause them to WANT "control" over EVERYTHING! And, while that "drive" to control/possess you will SEEM like something you "want" (the feeling of"being" a PART OF), that "controlling" aspect will quickly become a "confining jealousy" which you will NOT like, eventually. And, because of his passion, he will give the appearance of KNOWING, but you are inherently MORE intelligent than he is. Scorpios have a problem in seeing BEYOND their PERSONAL desires! And any failures, on YOUR part, to mold yourself to HIS desires will be met with MORE SEVER attempts to IMPOSE his will on you. Your best matches are the OTHER air signs. They don't generally display the "passion" of Scorpios, but they are much better suited, temprementally. You will also do well with Fire signs, which would probably be the best place for you to find the passion you desire. Fire signs can burn VERY fiercely. And your Air FEEDS their f
Fire. And, as long as you DON'T try to dominate a Fire sign, they ARE susceptible to good/intelligent guidance! Which is one of your fortes. And, as an Aquarian, you're a Fixed sign, which imparts MORE "drive" than most. You're very good at/inclined to finishing the things you get involved in. And, with a Scorpio, that's only going to happen IF your objectives compliment HIS desires! If not, a Scorpio will try to curtail YOUR "OTHER" endeavors.Otherwise, those "drives" of YOURS are going to be the source/cause of conflict between the two of you.

Just a bit of info for your consideration. All the best! J


I read one very interesting text about a Scorpio-Aquarius combination. I will send you the link later. It requires VERY mature people - a Scorpio who stopped playing controlling/power games in love and an Aquarius who stopped being too intellectual and got more opened to feelings. I'm still not sure if that would work for me, knowing how overwhelming, controlling, judgemental, jealous and - spiteful they can be. laugh But, they have many good sides, as well. purple heart They are intelligent, insightful and perceptive in a different way than an Aquarius is. They are very protective of their love ones and would do anything for those they love. They are actually often very good-hearted people. purple heart That's something many people don't understand about Scorpios, because they often see only difficult and 'dark' sides of the sign, that are not only more obvious, but Scorpios use more as some sort of a defense against anything that can hurt them.

A very interesting thing I noticed about Scorpios is that they are insightful and intelligent and very easily throw the 'truths' about others at them laugh - they are definitely not a good match for a week and too sensitive person - but they cannot see things from so many angles as an Aquarius can. An Aquarius can put themselves in every person's shoes and understand everyone's perspective, thus being able to give a lot of understanding, compassion and acceptance to a wide range of people. purple heart Scorpios don't seem to have this ability. They are too fixed in their own perspective. This might be a little difficult to explain...

So far the best match - or - the easiest one at least - for me was with a Sagittarius. purple heart

Let_Us: I shoulda known! Yes, Dee. As a Libran, you're an Air sign. Air signs mix BEST with OTHER Air signs. To wit: Geminis, Aquarians, and other Librans. But ya kinda need to watch the "other Librans". Two people of the SAME sign, are either the BEST possible, or the WORST possible matches. Other than THAT, your NEXT best matches are the Fire signs, Aries, Leos, and Sagittarians. As an Air sign, YOU provide the "nourishment" that a Fire sign needs! You probably want to AVOID Water and Earth signs. Air doesn't mix well with EITHER of those. Hope that helps you narrow your search down! But IF you come knocking on MY door, MY redheaded temper is PROBABLY gonna collide HEADFIRST with YOUR Irish feistiness! All the BEST! Hope you find what makes you happy!


What do u mean by "I shoulda known"??

I think you have a good "handle" on Scorpios. Such a "union" WOULD require the "sensitivity" of a tightrope walker! And MOST of that, would devolve to/on the Aquarian, to make it "work". ALL signs have strong and weak points. And you ARE a good match, for/with a Sagittarian! YOU are "Air". THEY are "Fire". And Fire NEEDS Air, or it will NEVER reach its maximum "potential". Just as Air APPRECIATES the "warmth" of Fire. They are "complimentary" signs. An Aquarian's "guidance" will contribute MUCH, to a Sagittarians success! bouquet teddybear

Deedee123x: What do u mean by "I shoulda known"??


I MEAN "I SHOULDA known!" We share MANY "sympathies", Dee. But we ALSO "clash"! Have you ever taken the time to WONDER about WHY that is? I HADN'T thought about it, because "I" have this "knack" with MOST people. And I THINK you might share this trait! Why? Because we're BOTH Libras! ME, more than MOST! Because, not ONLY am I a Libra, I ALSO have Libra as my RISING sign! Which indicates that OTHERS "SEE" those traits inherent in Libras, in me. I'm a DIFFICULT "Sign" combination, for MOST people to "deal" with. I'm a Libra, Libra, Leo. Astrologically speaking, I'm smarter, quicker witted, more insightful and a lot of other things, MORE than most people. But I'm ALSO more "thoughtful" (in the sense that I spend MORE of my time THINKING/ANALYSING" things), more idealistic, more moralistic and a lot of OTHER things, that tend to bring me into conflict with others! I have the BAD habit of "correcting" people, in PUBLIC! Plus, having a Leo moon, means that "I" have VERY "SPECIFIC" notions of what "love" is/should be! Altogether, NOT the easiest person to "get along" with. Because of my INHERENT "nature", from an astrological standpoint.

I think it was you that asked me what I MEANT, by saying that ''I" was "SOCIALLY" awkward/inept. One aspect of that, that I DIDN'T mention, in my reply, is reflected in my horoscope. Libra is the ONLY sign in/of the Zodiac, that is NOT a "living" being. And there are certain IMPLICATIONS inherent in THAT fact! Libras are LESS "transparent", emotionally, than any OTHER sign. I'm NOT saying that Librans HAVE less emotions than anybody else. It's that a Libran CAN BE harder for OTHERS to "read", than anybody else. ESPECIALLY if they don't WANT to be "read"! And, since, as I said, "I" come from an emotionally NON-demonstrative family, I NEVER LEARNED how to "share" my "emotions", in socially "acceptable" manners. I never learned what WAS socially "okay". As a result, I THINK about how I SHOULD/CAN "show" my emotions! (Which is NOT the "best" thing to do/be, when you're BEING "emotional".) And, if I'm UNSURE about a particular "methodology", I DON'T/WON'T exhibit those/that emotion.

Probably the EASIEST way this is "seen", by you (and others, on this forum) is by my "verbosity", as most people here, call it. I have the tendency to OVERSTATE/CLARIFY my "meaning/thoughts", in "explaining" my "position". Because I THINK that OVER CLARIFYING, is better than UNDER clarifying a question at issue. Leaves LESS chance for MISunderstandings/interpretations.

In the same way that I OVERSTATE my "position", I "UNDESTATE" my "emotions". And for, basically, SOMEWHAT similar reasons! I'm NOT an "easy" person to get to "know", or "appreciate". But I DO have some friends who "appreciate" what I bring to the table. ENOUGH so, that they TOLERATE my "honesty/bluntness/untactful/ineptitude".

Does THAT answer your question(s), Dee?

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 was born on the Cusp of Magic but I tend to have more Gemini traits... Have no idea what sign I should look for in a partner..

Meh kinda.
I'm joking.
Yes it did.
Just one point I'd like to make....u say u are not good at showing emotion " because of how u were raised'
That your not socially ept ' because of how u were raised'

You stopped being under ur families influence at the age of 18.
Anything from there on that u didn't want to accept u cud have learnt to drop it.
Also anything u didn't learn but felt u shud was then ur responsibility to learn for urself.

So u really should not lay the blame any longer at ur families doorstep.
If u want to be more sociable u can...if u want to be more emotive ..u can

True. purple heart

I was raised by a Scorpio parent and I can tell you that it definitely teaches you how to handle your own emotions, because Scorpios are so emotionally overwhelming that you have to deal with their and your own emotions at the same time all the time. laugh I also have a Scorpio Ascendant, so this energy is not completely unknown to me. However, they ARE difficult, that is for sure and I'm still not sure if I could handle them, especially a typical controlling and possessive Scorpio who plays power games. However, there are more and less advanced example of all signs... Let's see what destiny holds for us. heart1

Sagittarius is always a good match. heart1

I was suspended for awhile in high school for making up signs for 2 new courses inviting students to sign up for and posted them all over the school which caused hundreds to line up at the designated classroom for sign ups. The 2 courses were "Asstronomy 101" and for "Asstrology, the studies of Heavenly Bodies'....ahh yes, the bright ideas of youth....laugh A lot of students, mostly male, were rather disappointed no such classes existed...

Let_Us: Of COURSE Scorpios are poison to/for you, if you're a Gemini! Gemini is an air sign! And Scorpios are water signs! They DON'T mix well! You're right in thinking that another Gemini would be good for/to you. But, honestly, two of the same sign are either the best, or the worst, for each other. You'd probably do better with a Libra. #1. They're one of the few signs that are as smart as you. (Geminis are GENERALLY considered to ne the quickest witted member of the zodiac. While the air signs, Libra - Cardinal, Aquarius - Fixed, and Gemini - Mutable, are certainly the most intellectual and intelligent members of the zodiac.) But, while Aquarians are smart enough to deal with you, your "flexibility" and "spontaneity" will likely drive them away, after a while. While a Libra will find your quixoticness not only interesting, but also amusing! And his serenity, in combination with his intelligence and adaptability will intrigue you. #2. You second best matches are the Fire signs. Air feeds fire. So you could bring out the best that a Fire sign (Leo - Fixed, Aries - Cardinal, Sagittarius - Mutable) has to offer. And you'll LOVE the "passion" of the fire signs.

Just a short course on/of Astrology.

Let_Us: Libra - Aries CAN BE a VERY good match! But it's kinda "tricky". YOU have ALL the "traits" SHE DOESN'T have, and LACK ALL the "traits" SHe has. So you're sort DIAMETRICALLY opposed@ But, IF you can work it out, you're the PERFECT compliment to each other! She covers YOUR weak points! And YOU can cover HERS! You've got ALL the bases covered, BETWEEN you! You NEED to work as a "TEAM"! But Libra's ARE the sign that rules "teamwork/partnerships"! Hopefully, your "tact" is well enough developed, to blunt her headfirst recklessness, WITHOUT upsetting her "feelings". THERE is the "trick" to such a relationship! It's a fine line to walk, and, unfortunately, the "burden" of that relationship is going to fall UNEQUALLY, o the Libran.



I must say that Libra woman left a massive impression on me! Her intelligence was something else, and something I respected her for deeply. But she was a bit of a ''game-player'', frequently doing things to test my loyalty to her, and that wore thin after a few months.
