To not want to be friends with fire signs

Lordylord1 · 18/08/2022 22:22

I know if I read this I would probably think I was crazy.
but it’s dawned on me I don’t get on with fire signs! I like them as aquaintences but I always feel let down by them
as im quite deep and emotional and I find fire signs to be about image abs quite hard hearted.

all my failed friendships are with fire sign ladies - have I finally gone cuckoo lol

Ooh, hang on. Turns out I’m not Sagittarian at all.

I’m part of an arcane cosmic elite.

Be awed, peasants.

You will have to put DS1 up for adoption as he’s incompatible with the rest of the family.

Unless he’s old enough to simply abandon in the street?

He might be really self reliant like a Capricorn though and end up being very successful
then she’d be sorry!

No. Because that kind of Capricorn nonsense (I don’t think Capricorn is water - is it?) just won’t fly in their firey household.

And that’s what matters here. Priorities!

Oh wow. so traditionally I'm an aries, according to that new calculation I'm pisces, and I learned last night my moon sign was scorpio. I have options! Thank you!

Oh sorry I didn’t get the water bit

I’m not a water sign fan much so I guess…agreed. Have to live outside.

Moon in Scorpio is a tough placement actually. I appreciate you don’t believe and that’s cool I’m not trying to be a astrowanker about it but it might interest you if you Google it because it isn’t easy to have

tho totally I sound like a preachy woo woo wanker now and promise to never return to this thread

ShahRukhKhan · 19/08/2022 11:28

Well I'm Scorpio on the cusp of Sagittarius so basically half water and half fire-- what would you make of that hahahaha.

I don't think you can reject someone based on their sign because people are more complex than that. It can be a guide only.

ClumpingBambooIsALie · 19/08/2022 11:29

Imagine having so little to worry about that you worry about having a difficult moon sign.

SudocremOnEverything · 19/08/2022 11:31

Apparently I have a moon in Virgo. I’ve got ADHD. I actually read the description and laughed.

I actually had a quick look, it's something that I might look into again in the future, I don't mind astrology, I just don't want to be written off because of it. I always thought of it as being about balance and compatibility , rather than just "people who have this sign has a nasty temper" type thing. Thanks for the heads up. It might explain some things... who knows!

Judging and discounting people because of the time and day they were born. How silky and fun.

I didn't think @djdkdkddkek was judging the moon sign in scorpio, just mentioning it. I didn't feel judged anyway.... It's all good.

Who did I discount and judge? Huh?

oh Did they mean that comment? Yeah sorry I wasn’t judging and I hope it didn’t come across that way to you.

bananaboats · 19/08/2022 11:49

I don't really know anything about star signs but I'm a fire sign & def not deep or emotional so you might have a point!

BurnDownTheDiscoHangTheDJ · 19/08/2022 11:54

I knew you meant star signs. I haven't looked at mine since I was a teenager, but a quick look has confirmed that me and my husband are highly compatible in all areas (hurrah!) however the other star sign that I have such high compatibility with is my arsehole ex boyfriend who was the worst relationship I ever had, so that's something of a hole in the theory.

Minesril · 19/08/2022 11:57

He's cancer. No idea if that would furnish him with the abilities to survive without his switch (and his brother, who he adores despite their apparent incompatibility).

djdkdkddkek · 19/08/2022 12:01

Excellent :)

Yutes · 19/08/2022 12:01

Don’t discount fire signs. Some of the most passionate friendships I’ve had have been with fire signs.

KettrickenSmiled · 19/08/2022 12:01

LilacSky95 · 18/08/2022 22:24

There must be some truth in it or there wouldnt even be such thing as fire/air/water/earth signs and their compatibility with each other etc? I might look into this myself, might be a reason as to why I haven't clicked with certain people 🤣

Can't tell if this is sarcastic or genuine ...

Why "must there be some truth in" anything that superstitious people invent @LilacSky95?

If I randomly invent some rubbish about all blue cars always getting clutch trouble, does that make it true?

Notjustanymum · 19/08/2022 12:06

Just because your experiences seem to follow a trend, it doesn’t mean that you’ll never get along with ANYONE with a “fire” star sign… it’s a kind of statistical law, so YABU!
