Just a continuation for me from a conversation I overheard on the train.

I don't believe in horoscopes as such. Well how can one forecast suit so many.

However, starsigns I do believe there is truth in those. I am a Taurus and display all of the Taurus characteristics.
DC are Gemini and Virgo and again seem to display the traits of those signs.

What is your starsign and are you 'typical' of that sign?

I'm Cancer.

I used to really like astrology but not so much now. Nevertheless, it's pretty bang on for me.

legoiseverywhere · 10/11/2019 18:28

I am typical & work in a field which apparently suits my star sign. Weirdly a lot of my colleagues are the same sign. I also find most of my friends are the same star sign or ones that apparently get on with.

I am a Taurus.

MrOnionsBumperRoller · 10/11/2019 18:29

I am totally my starsign (all the bad and horrible things!).

usernames · 10/11/2019 18:30

I'm a Sagittarius and have the same characteristics as I'm supposedly meant to and my DP is a Leo..apparently we are compatible?!

Yarboosucks · 10/11/2019 18:32

My star sign means that I am immune to homeopathy.

Lipperfromchipper · 10/11/2019 18:32

I am a picses through and through 🤣🤣

beckyvardy · 10/11/2019 18:33

Sagittarius but if you believe in the 13th star sigh I'm an ophicus. So some people will be this if they do.

isseywith4vampirecats · 10/11/2019 18:33

Leo and very typical of my birth sign OH Cancer and same hes typical of what he should be, but horoscopes cant be that accurate as they are aimed at thousands of people on one day

Time4Change0 · 10/11/2019 18:34

Leo and yes definitely meet the criteria for it!

waggydog21 · 10/11/2019 18:35

I’m a Leo and I’m honestly the most Leo Leo around. I didn’t really look at my star sign until a couple of years ago, so I’m not playing up to it or anything. But then again it’s easy to put people in boxes and people relate to what they want to relate to so..

@beckyvardy

What is the 13th star sign date?

Stillabitemo · 10/11/2019 18:37

I’m a Virgo and am very very organised....

legoiseverywhere · 10/11/2019 18:38

I don't find daily horoscopes accurate & don't read them but character traits & health issues related to my star sign are very accurate. I also have a few friends with the same star signs who are very similar to each other but know others that are quite different but are born a month apart.

FacebookRager · 10/11/2019 18:43

My personality is very similar to the so called traits belonging to my starsign. My DSis is also very similar to hers. Not that I go in for all that stuff really.

Didn't NASA add another star sign (Ophiuchus) though making all the others no longer attached to the same dates? According to the updated, 13 signs of the zodiac I'm no longer a Libra

TulipCat · 10/11/2019 18:43

Most people will find that whatever star sign they read a horoscope for, most of it will apply to them in some form. It's all a load of twaddle!

legoiseverywhere · 10/11/2019 18:43

One of my dc has a star sign that I've never had a relationship with before (when I say relationship I mean never known anyone well enough to know their birthday) & I find her quite challenging, she is the epitome of her star sign.

joystir59 · 10/11/2019 18:45

Libra through and through with Aquarius partner. Supposed to be a perfect match and it is!

Monsterinmyshoe · 10/11/2019 18:47

I'm a gemini and am like my star sign depending on which twin I am.

If I remember rightly, Trump, Johnson and JRM are all Geminis, so there is definitely a gobshite/shit at politics trend with geminis.

Monsterinmyshoe · 10/11/2019 18:49

I also am surrounded by Scorpios in my professional and personal life. They are VERY honest. No wonder I have no confidence.

Crunchymum · 10/11/2019 18:50

I am a Gemini and recognise a lot of 'Gemini characteristics' in myself.

However when I was about 13 and very interested in all this kind of stuff I realised I had characteristics of all the zodiac signs. A little more research showed people tend to have confirmation bias towards the sign they are born under. In short its complete and utter horse shit.

Phycadelicsilhouette · 10/11/2019 18:51

I’m a Pisces and I absolutely fit the Pisces traits.
Interesting that so many say they match their star sign descriptions.

PrincessHoneysuckle · 10/11/2019 18:51

A typical Aries.Selfish and passionate

Carrotcakeforbreakfast · 10/11/2019 18:54

Perhaps people do have bias.

But I remember thinking about someone I was interested in many moons ago.
I bet he is a scorpio

Everything he did screamed Scorpio to me (my brother is a scorpio) I didn't know his birthday at this point.
I eventually had a relationship with him for a couple of years. My first adult relationship too and he was indeed a scorpio.

I'm a typical Libra. Very hard to make decisions!

legoiseverywhere · 10/11/2019 19:01

Perhaps people do have bias

Taureans have a tendency to be materialistic, lazy & enjoy too much food. All true for me but I don't like those associations! 😁
