Astrology, does anyone believe? A non-scientific fun experiment

Hi all...

Astrology seems to come and go like mood rings and fads from the 70's.

I never hear anyone talking much about it anymore...but I thought it would be fun to do a little non-scientific, chit chatty kind of experiment.

So let's get to it, for those of you who are game!

I am going to post in this thread....3 composites of info taken off various sites concerning "sun signs." I am not going to tell which signs they are....if you think that it's your sign, leave a post with your birthday, you can omit the year if you'd like...we just need the month and day....and ONLY if you think it's your sign I am describing...or if you'd just like to guess at which sign I am describing, that's fine too

First sign on the "test":

Characteristics: Generous and warmhearted, Creative and enthusiastic
Broad-minded and expansive, Faithful and loving. These folks are impossible to miss, since they love being center stage. They are also supremely talented and have a flair for the dramatic. Warmth and enthusiasm seems to seep from every pore. Putting these folks at the helm is a good thing, too, since they are natural leaders. They may ruffle a few feathers along the way, however, since they can also be overbearing and somewhat autocratic.

That said, they are well organized, idealistic and have a knack for inspiring others. You're stubborn yet impulsive. You're also showy, dramatic and sometimes vain. You have a sunny demeanor and love to be the center of your loved ones' adoration. You'd make a great actor.

Second sign on the "test":

Characteristics: Those born under this Sign are forever the butt of jokes for being so picky and critical (and they can be), but their 'attention to detail' is for a reason: to help others. They are an asset in the workplace as they can be counted on to get things right the first time, every time -- and no detail will be overlooked. They are also balanced and fair in their assessments. You're flexible, yet practical. You get a kick out of organization and anything that puts your analytical mind to use. Watch out for perfectionism! Modest and shy, Meticulous and reliable, Practical and diligent
Intelligent and analytical. Some people might find them cold or emotionally detached because they live in their minds, not in their emotions and feelings.

Third and final sign on the "test":

Characteristics: Those born under this Sign are dead serious in their mission to learn about others. There's no fluff or chatter for them, either: these folks will zero in on the essential questions, gleaning the secrets that lie within. They concern themselves with beginnings and endings, and are unafraid of either; they also travel in a world which is black and white and has little use for gray. The curiosity of these folks is immeasurable, which may be why they are such adept investigators. They are perfectly suited to being on their own. They are not social butterflies like some other zodiac signs and some actually prefer to live on their own that way there is never any issue of who controls what at home, they like to be in control.

OK, here's how it will work...after you read those, if you think it's your sign, let us know and tell us your birthdate....

Does that mean that I don't know who I am, I'm not the real me, there's another me out there, or maybe it's my multiple personality me, or a younger me?

Putting my fingers in my ears now, lalalalalalalalalalalalala

I don't believe any of those signs are mine (May 20) although I have some of those traits as we all do...I'm gonna say that none of the examples are Taurus

reply to post by LateApexer313


I am a Pisces and I don't think any of these describe me.

If I were to guess I would have to say the descriptions you listed are:

1) is for Aries
2) is for Libra
3) is for Leo

Am I close on any of my guesses?

reply to post by Enthralled Fan


Hiyah Enthralled Fan and Jen

Jen....you're correct, none of those is you

Enthralled Fan, you are ALSO correct, none of those are you as well Your 3 guesses although I could see why you would choose them, are incorrect

So I think....we have Rush, not right, you two, right about yourselves, that your sign is NOT portrayed there...so 2 to 1 are right so far....

I think I fit #3..........and im a Leo to a "T" Meaning I fit the Leo description exactly.

I have never looked at this side of astrology though


*edited because I see that #3 is not a Leo. Maybe I dont know myself so well....:w:there, that is better.

[edit on 28-6-2008 by greeneyedleo]

All three 'tests' sound like they describe me. However, they are far from my birth-month, which will not be disclosed here. Hahaha! Below are the signs for spoilers:

1. Leo
2. Virgo
3. Scorpio

i decided that No. 2 was me BEFORE piky posted that it was Virgo, so yeah, i'm number 2...a Virgo



Roswell.

I'd like to play! I realize that none of them are mine. Although I do share a few aspects with number one though. At least the "Generous and warmhearted, Creative and enthusiastic, Broad-minded and expansive, Faithful and loving" parts however the rest of Number 1 are very very different.

Would you be willing to come up with others?

reply to post by pikypiky


Good job PikyPiky You are correct

PikyPiky knows her astrology...

Given that's funny you're a Leo and didn't pick yours

Deson - ok I'll do 3 more, and see if anyone else wants to play again along with you...

First new sign on the "test":

This practical and prudent sun sign will be the first to tell you if your new idea just does not make common sense. They are great refiners, taking people creative ideas and fine tuning them, adding direction and practical application.

These people are very ambitious and disciplined. They will climb the corporate ladder steadily, and with honor. You can count on them to get the job done and to go well above and beyond the call of duty.

They show extreme patience when dealing with short tempered people, they can listen to a long winded rant and still stay cool and calm. They have a very good personality, and have a great sense of humor. Their humor is more a sarcastic, and dead pan type humor, but works very well because they have what it takes to pull it off.

Second sign on the new "test":

This person seeks adventure and has unusually high energy level. Pioneering, they will be the first to take a risk.

This sign is considered by their peers to be a courageous leader, not afraid to take risks, will often feel confident that "They know better". They always seem to have a quick grasp of essence of most any situation, BUT they do not often hang around to closely examine the details. However, give them a cause, or a good reason to fight for something, a problem to solve, or a fresh new idea to ponder, and you will find this dynamic personality rises to the cause.

They are also a very dynamic people and can easily draw attention to themselves when they enter a room. Make no mistake, this sun sign will be one of the first to risk their life to save yours, and also the first to get really mad at you for putting yourself at risk in the first place!

Third sign on the new "test":

They are very loving people and are a bit more sensitive then the other zodiac signs. Be careful when dealing with them if you are in love with one, because absent minded comments can sometimes cut them deep.

This person will be one of the first to help you when you are down. They are charitable and honest, willing to do anything for their fellow man. They hate suffering and you will find them active in charities and other activities.

This person seems to display two very different personalities.

The first is one of being very charming and pleasant to be in contact with. The other also has these characteristics, but occasionally appears very reserved or even bashful and almost seems devoid of personality.

In order to be successful this person must put an extraordinary effort to overcome being timid and sensitive and work on presenting confident, determined and courageous.

First sign on the new test sounds like Capricorn.

Am I right?

reply to post by LateApexer313



Ok, do some more.

I though that was fun

reply to post by jensouth31


I did, I put 3 new ones up ^^^^ there Since Deson wanted to play and since they got guessed so quickly....

Piky already said it but my birthday is August 17th and I know darn well that fits #1. Then again I am into astrology and that's what most books and articles say about leos.

You're also showy, dramatic and sometimes vain. You have a sunny demeanor and love to be the center of your loved ones' adoration.

this is me 100% all day long. and i love every minute of it. esp the vanity.

ok, on the new group of three. I'm guessing that number 3 is Libra. Or at least I'm hoping that it is since it seems to fit me very well. Oh man does that fit me big time.
