What's your sign?

The last book on Astrology I bought entitled "Born on a Rotten Day" is eerily accurate about details in my life. So what is YOUR sign? (I'd do a poll, but they're short 2 spaces)

- Aries (The Ram) (cardinal, fire, personal): In astrology Aries is ruled by the planet Mars. The tropical duration of Aries is March 21 to April 20.
- Taurus (The Bull) (fixed, earth, personal): In astrology Taurus is ruled by the planet Venus and for a few modern astrologers, the dwarf planet Ceres. The tropical duration of Taurus is April 21 to May 21.
- Gemini (The Twins) (mutable, air, personal): In astrology Gemini is ruled by the planet Mercury. The tropical duration of Gemini is May 22 to June 21.
- Cancer (The Crab) (cardinal, water, personal): In astrology Cancer is ruled by the Moon. The tropical duration of Cancer is June 22 to July 22.
- Leo (The Lion) (fixed, fire, social): In astrology Leo is ruled by the Sun. The tropical duration of Leo is July 23 to August 21.
- Virgo (The Virgin) (mutable, earth, social): There is some debate in regards to a modern ruler of this sign with Chiron, Pallas, Vesta and Ceres often considered candidate by some modern astrologers, but the planet Mercury is typically used as the default by tradition pending a consensus among modern practitioners; but no one knows. The tropical duration of Virgo is August 22 to September 23.
- Libra (The Scales) (cardinal, air, social): In astrology Libra is ruled by the planet Venus. The tropical duration of Libra is September 24 to October 23.
- Scorpio (The Scorpion) (fixed, water, social): In astrology Scorpio is ruled by the dwarf planet Pluto. The tropical duration of Scorpio is October 24 to November 22.
- Sagittarius (The Archer/Centaur) (mutable, fire, universal): In astrology Sagittarius is ruled by the planet Jupiter. The tropical duration of Sagittarius is November 23 to December 22.
- Capricorn (The Sea-goat) (cardinal, earth, universal): In astrology Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn. The tropical duration of Capricorn is December 23 to January 20.
- Aquarius (The Water Carrier) (fixed, air, universal): In astrology Aquarius is ruled by the planets Saturn and Uranus. The tropical duration of Aquarius is January 21 to February 18.
- Pisces (The Two Fish) (mutable, water, universal): In astrology Pisces is ruled by the planets Jupiter and Neptune. The tropical duration of Pisces is February 19 to March 20.



I'm an Aquarius. Which explains a lot, doesn't it?

Virgo with Scorpio ascendant.

This would have been interesting as a poll so we could determine if there is a higher disposition amongst certain signs on this forum.

Virgo, but the name implies nothing about me.

Problem is: poll fits only 10 options, versus 12 zodiac signs.

Anyway I fit the sterotypical description of an Aquarius amazingly well. Especially the bad parts.

Sorry, I didn't realise.

You could have nine options, with the tenth being "other". It would make sense for the three missing options to belong to one of the triplicities, either cardinal, fixed or mutable.

As long as you included the word "other" in your post they'd be easy to ctrl+f for and to tabulate with the other results.

i'm a taurus, and i guess i'm sort of stubborn, introverted and shy, also apparently it's a negative sign:
In astrology, a negative, ceptive, dispassive, yin, nocturnal or feminine sign refers to any of the six even-numbered signs of the zodiac: Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn or Pisces"
and that's sort of me too

Libra: Libra is the seventh astrological sign in the Zodiac, originating from the constellation of Libra. In western astrology, this sign is no longer aligned with the constellation as a result of the precession of the equinoxes. In astrology, Libra is considered a "masculine", positive (extrovert) sign. It is also considered an air sign and is one of four cardinal signs. Libra is ruled by the planet Venus (which also rules Taurus). Being the seventh sign of the zodiac, Libra has been associated with the astrological seventh house.


Individuals born when the Sun was in this sign are considered Libra individuals. Libras are commonly referred to as feisty and fiery individuals. Under the tropical zodiac, the Sun enters Libra on the moment of autumnal equinox by definition on September 23, leaving it on October 22. Under the sidereal zodiac, it is currently there roughly around October 19 and November 16.

Libra, also known as "The Scales" or "Balance", is the only symbol of the zodiac that is represented by an inanimate object, rather than an animal or human.



Generally, the Libra sign are considered to be compatible with other airy signs such as, Aquarius, Gemini. These signs share an airy demeanor and are believed to relate with each other on that merit of airiness.

My sign is Share The Road. I wear it everywhere I ride. Damned cars...

If you're talking about my astrological sign, it's Pisces.
