astrological signs and personality traits

[$$$ FD $$$]

do you people accept or believe in the ascribed attributes to the astrological signs? are the descriptions convincing from your own personal experiences and observations? which are your favourite ones? and why?

I believe it. I've seen scorpios act like scorpios.

There's something to it, especially if you delve into it and find out about moon signs, planetary positions, ascendants. Of course, it can be misrepresented and turn into bullshit. It's a basic attempt at trying to understand people, especially when you consider it came up in a world without psychology and sociology. Besides, you don't have to talk about Borrebies, and Armenoids, and whatever else!

although there must be some sociological and psychological aspects to this arrangement of astrological signs afterall there is an emphasis on personality traits, behavior, social interactions etc, very fascinating.

i would encourage everyone in here to explore initially with the info on the www especially as it applies to your own personal cases.

I wonder everbody's zodiac sign on dodona.I look at their profile for it.Why every dodona member doesn't write their birthdates on their profile

[$$$ FD $$$]

that's cuz its personal, they can talk about their astrological signs though or atleast about them inclusive of all the signs - basically opinions on each one.

Too much information is power... People in some cultures keep their true names a secret, hey, we do the same.
Even countries and cities are asigned signs of the zodiac, I think they set a date of founding or something. If I remember, Russia is an Acquarius, I think England is Aries, Ethiopia is Acquarius, too. Then Russia and Ethiopia should be big non-conformists, and England very agressive...

European part of Russia is said to be Acquarius, but Siberia - Pisces.

Aries and Leo are the worst.

if the tides are inluenced by the Moon, maybe we can be influenced by the stars!

usually what they write about my sign (gemini) is spot on, though i dont believe horoscopes. (like those you get on magazines)

[wendland]

Aries are agressive and violent, Taurus lazy and greedy, Gemini false liers, Cancer weak and mean, Leo selfish buffoon, Virgo cold bore, Libra indecisive-but will always decide for self-interest in the end, Scorpios are murderous psychopaths, Saggitarius mean well but can do a lot of harm, Capricorns--might as well commit suicide, Acquarius is cold and indifferent, Pisces always looks for the easy way and thus untrustworthy and treacherous. Who's the worst?

IDK perhaps there is some astrological significance to our birth, our mood, and our development.

But my knowledge is not enough to expand on that. To my understanding ancient cultures like the Persian priest-class the Magi, the Babylonian astrologers, Aztecs, and Mayans all developed astrological concepts far more advanced than your basic horoscopes.

The Chinese new year sounds the dumbest of all. Think about, they are saying that everyone who is born in the same year has the same traits?? Horoscopes are equally as dumb, again they're saying everyone born in the same month period will tend to the same behaviors, again ridiculous.

To me systems like the Mayans and Aztecs make a lot more sense cuz they are multi-factoral. The day, month, year all factor into it. Also the arrangement of stars and inter-planetary alignments make all the difference. This makes more sense to me. Again there is not enough surviving info on these astrological cultures to make statements on its accuracy but to me these seem better than your run of the mill horoscopes.
