I'm kinda curious about..feelings.. and how private we all are about them.
I have some friends..who are the same..some not.
But the ones who feel the same are generally within the same same 3 starsigns..who feel as private as me.
I'm not judging anyone..I think talking is important.. but could only ever talk to a trusted few.
Can I ask..is it just different people??
Or...is personality involved..when posting your life pain..and problems ..and needing to talk to strangers?
I don't know..where I stand on it.
I judge no one.

I'm Aries and have just googled the Aries traits. I must have missed the memo somewhere along the line, as I'm not like one at all.

My father is an Aries and is bang on the money as far as what one is meant to be like.

Star signs dont seem to be as big a thing as they used to be do they?

Whatever does Mystic Meg or that man (Russell?) who used to read the out on morning TV do now?

I actually find the idea of star signs, and guardian angels etc, fascinating.
I don't believe in it, but it's interesting. In the same way I don't believe in all the Greek gods. But its interesting reading about how they believed there were so many and why.

And I'm a Christian so am well aware other people will think my beliefs are bonkers/stupid/whatever.

Maybe that's what's interesting about it. Why I believe in God, but not star signs.

I stayed For The Feminism, I find it interesting too, but it's not my intention not to listen to what other people think.
It,s interesting to hear that lots of people belive it's a load of old tosh.
I haven't formed an opinion, I simply noticed that my friendship group are all similar birthsigns, which led me to ask, if anyone believed in the personality traits of birthsigns. Am certainly not hear to argue, simply asking opinions.
Am not hurting anyone..nor intending to annoy anyone, and am certainly not conducting on line research. That did make me giggle!!

Stradivarius - I'm old and highly strung.

When I said "research" I was loosely describing what you're doing? Which is wanting an answer to your ponderings by asking a pool of people online their star sign to see if it matches up with your "theory" on personality.

Why are you giggling about that? Confused

I don't think any questions on the psychology of human behaviour can be answered by horoscopes. It's far too simplified a notion.

Did you know that mother Theresa had the same star sign as Jack the Ripper?

Don't be so open minded, your brain falls out Wink

I'm Gemini. I talk a lot of crap (I am known for it), and I genuinely believe I can communicate with animals.

I'm a Pisces.

I don't share easily. I'm stubborn. I cut people off without a 2nd thought if they have wronged me.

My true friends know I will do anything for them. I am the agony aunt as apparently I tend to say the right things at the right time. Was way too soft in my younger years and gave been totally taken for granted. It took some time to toughen up.

I'd say I'm typically my sign.

You sound exactly like me, but I'm Aquarius
