Do you feel like your star sign?

[wensie]

So if you're Piscies do you associate with Piscies traits?

I was in a really cool Indian village three years ago and paid 50 pence to have my future told to me. The psychic lady didn't speak English but my friend did and translated.

She immediately guessed my star sign and my partners and was correct then told me certain star signs I must avoid having for my children and others that would work really well. I made a mental note of these!

Now I am going to TTC soon I feel absolutely crazy that I am even taking this into consideration!

I'm wondering if anyone actually feels like their star sign and if everyone says no I think that will knock a bit of sense into me.

For any interested, I give you,...... the Barnum effect.

I always think of it as a load of rubbish. However I am 100% my star sign 🤷‍♀️

Interesting!

I'm a Cancer, and definitely have Cancer traits
-im a homebody
-i have a tendency to be over sensitive and get hurt easily
-i tend to hold onto old grudges
-many Cancerians go onto the caring professions and I'm a nurse
-im very loyal
-its a water sign and I love swimming and being near the sea

I don't read my horoscopes or anything though.

They aren’t the fire signs. Pisces and Cancer are water (as is Scorpio).

eta I may have misread and you are saying fire signs PLUS those - sorry!

@mintirn It certainly is interesting.

There's a lot out there that we don't understand!

do you mean, all the fire signs PLUS cancer Pisces Libra, as with 3xfire signs, 2xwater, 1xair, you only need to rule out earth signs, Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo
as suggested to you already and there you are, sorted!
You didn’t say which sign you are? and do you know which animal you are in
the Chinese astrological charts?

Ok so I asked google.

To have a child in one of your preferred signs you would need to conceive -

late December to mid January and if that didn't work then

no unprotected sex until late May to mid June and if that didn't work then

stop ttc again until late September to mid October.

So you have a window right now but if that's too soon then you are really limiting your options for getting pregnant.

True astrology is fascinating, I think. The blunt instrument 'sun sign' horoscope stuff is what gives astrology a bad name.

yes it's 6 signs total- all the fire signs plus three others that would be ok for me!

Funny you should say this as the family member I mentioned is Aries and I'm Pisces.

We're both very true to our signs yet we get on really well, but I don't think we're supposed to!

I’m Aries with cancer and Sagittarius. People I find difficult to get along with alway turn out to be Gemini. I just seem to click with other fire signs

Had I pushed 5 minutes earlier dd would’ve been a different star sign as she was born at 12.05am, so no, I don’t believe it in the slightest.. having said that I’m a Libra and the judge, jury and executioner.

Yes!

I used to be obsessed with star signs and horoscopes in my 20s. I stopped after I had convinced myself that one yearly horoscope was telling me that I would get back together with an ex who had dumped me. I spent several months on hold waiting for this to happen, and it didn’t.

In terms of are we like our star sign? I’m Libra and I think I probably am. DH is also Libra though and he doesn’t share the qualities I have that fit with being a libran.

In terms of trying to time when you conceive so that your baby will be a particular star sign - just don’t even go there! Some people conceive straight away, others can take years. And even once you are pregnant, your baby can easily arrive a couple of weeks early or late. You also don’t want to start convincing yourself that your baby needs to be of a particular sign or characteristics, because then what happens when they are not ?

Please just forget about this.

I dont believe in any of that stuff, but from what I have read, I have all the typical characteristics of my star sign.

I do not believe in star signs at all but mine describes me to a T

I had a quick look at typical Capricorn characteristics -

Capricorn likes: Family, tradition, music, understated status, quality craftsmanship
Capricorn dislikes: Almost everything at some point

So true, especially the dislikes!

I do 100%, I don’t know why because it’s not a very “me” trait to care about stuff like that. But I remember being a teenager and first seeing typical Taurus characteristics and thinking holy shit that’s me. Since then I’ve been a bit fixated on it! Meanwhile I couldn’t even tell you what my children’s starsigns are because again, I normally really don’t care about stuff like that. It’s bizarre

Yes I'm Aquarius. We are meant to be humanitarian, unusual, unique. I am like that

I am exactly like my star sign. That’s as far as I take it though, it means nothing else to me.

I think we are like our star sign because of conformity. We are told we are something so we believe it.

Also we could fit into any star sign. I'm Aquarius. I fit into the stereotype for that. I'm also emotiona like a Pisces, strong like a Taurus. I could fit into any of them really

I am Virgo and have Virgo in so many areas of my chart, it's ridiculous - I had my chart read by an astrologist who said she had never seen anything like it. And yes I am quite strongly Virgo as you can imagine.

This. It’s all bollocks. What is an Aquarius supposed to feel like, anyway?

You are supposed to be unique, unusual, humanitarian, follow your own path, stand up for causes, independent. I am aquarius
