Another fun thread! I'm a Libra. Actually, a double-Libra. Many years ago I read the best ever astrology book, it was Linda Goodman's Bedside Astrologer, I think. Anyway, there was the greatest story in there that gave a really cool description of each of the zodiac signs. Does anyone have the book that could copy that story for me? It's a story I tell people all the time.

Basically, there's a group of 12 women sitting in a circle, one from each sign of the zodiac. The hostess asks each person to talk about how they feel about old-fashioned calling cards. I guess way before phones were invented, well-to-do folks would have custom calling cards printed, and when they wanted a visit, they'd send their butler or runner to deliver these calling cards as an invitation to "come calling."

So the hostess asked each person their opinion on calling cards. I only remember a few of the responses, and it's amazing how they are so much like the friends in my life who share the signs. Here's the responses I remember:

Gemini says, "Calling cards? How much do they cost?"

In my experience, Geminis are the penny pinchers of the zodiac, so I thought that was an accurate response.

Aquarian's response, "Is that thunder I hear?"

This one cracks me up because I'm married to an Aquarian, who are famous for being perpetually "out to lunch" and in a world of their very own.

Sagitarrius, "Who the hell has time for calling cards?"

Virgo (the critical perfectionist) Well, naturally, as long as they are gilded in gold.

Libra goes on for pages & pages & analyzes till everyone falls asleep. Did I mention I'm a Libra?

Has anyone seen this? I'd love a copy.

Virgo

Well, all my brothers are obnoxious, and there's not an Aries in the bunch! (Except for me, that is.) Love 'em anyway, but some days . . .

From what I know about Sagitarians....your are strong willed,(some people might say stubborn) faithful, good friends, and you do tend to let stuff roll off your back, unlike the scorpion who will get your blood before we forget anything You tend to be on one path and you follow that path till the end, very determined.. My sister is a Sag and so is my son........ Thats about all I know!

Anyone find out for sure if my dad is Aquarious or Capricorn? Jan 14. He said something last night about thinking he was Capricorn, and I said, "but your house might be in a different moon" and he said, "yeah, that's it" (roll eyes) so while it's all amusing and fun, we have a houseful of skeptics here...hehe.

Kathy...

From what I know....your dad would be a Capricorn...based on his birthday.... Capricorn goes to January 19

you know i never used to believe in this stuff... until i realized that for whatever reason i am soooo incredibly attracted and have the best bedroom life with men who are virgos! I am a taurus.... and supposedly we are compatible that way.... and i have to say... almost 90% of the time when i am in a club or meet a man and i feel some serious chemistry.... and major attraction.... turns out he is a virgo...

maybe there is something to it after all... i fit the taurus profile.... chubby, homebody, likes the finer things in life... go figure... whats the skinny sign?

But he fits Aquarius so well! Hmmm. I don't know anything about this stuff, really.

Hey Dallasdoll, I'm Taurus, too. Chubby, huh? great. My hubby is June 5 (yep, today, wahoo, happy birthday hubby!) and I think he's the twins with the split personalities.

Gosh no Virgo's in the house? I'm a virgo but I'm not sure exactly what that means..if anyone knows that would be cool to figure me out!!!

I was born on the cusp between pisces and aquarious- but I really fit the typical aqurian profile. My coworkers have nicknamed me the absent minded professor. How can you be out to lunch and still be obessive? Must be that picses/aquarian mix!

Jaime,

Virgos typically are intelligent people known for their level-headedness. They like order and are known for their charm and dignity. Virgos tend to be less emotional than other signs.

okay I do like things in order... not sure on the rest fitting in LOL!!! And I'm not sure on the LESS emotional cause I sure can get over emotional sometimes!!! HEHE!!!

Nobody answered me on am I Gemini or Cancer..what are the signs of the 2....and Thanks Bandit...believe it or not my 2 year old took that picture, we were eating at Hard Rock Cafe and I took a picture of him and he wanted to take a picture of me....I was impressed.

I have learned that Virgos are happiest when they can have their lists. They may not need to actually do anything with the list, but they need their lists.

Kelly you fall into Leo..

Your right Lisa I do watch the accounts, not like there is anything there but in my household I am the keeper of the cash.

My hubby is a Arias. I have always loved the zodiacs but have never really went in depth.

Leo??? on June 21st?? What is the description?

Kelly, You're a Gemini/Cancer cusp. Go here for more info:
