Zodiac Tidbits

I'm into the zodiac and other cool metaphysical, supernatural stuff. I figure it keeps my consciousness open and flexible to new things.

So while I await the chefs' new zodiac icon set (hint hint), I'd start a post of zodiac tidbits (from various reputable - okay, and not so reputable but fun - sources).

Since I'm a Scorpio, I'll start with that:

1. A stuffed alligator will enhance the overall air of mystery that many Scorpios are attracted to.
2. The Scorpio color is basically deep crimson which is the color of Pluto, the Scorpio ruling planet. Though it should be noted that Pluto (by the powers that be at NASA) no longer consider Pluto a planet. So the question is, can Scorpios pick another ruling planet?
3. The richness of dark red grapes and wine boldly reflect the intensely seductive Scorpio image.
4. Creatures of the sign are crustaceans and many insects, i.e., scarabs and oysters.
5. Scorpio women tend to swing their hips as they walk.
6. They love pirates.

And please feel free to add to the tidbits for this or any other sign.

oooHHHHH do Capricorn next . . . please

I think Saturn is the ruling planet. And I know my birth flower is s carnation but I have no idea if that's related to the zodiac, lol.

CAPRICORNS:

1. Capricorns feel justifiably proud when the dentist congratulates them on their high level of oral hygiene.
2. Managing the land is an attractive profession for Capricornians.
3. Capricorn creatures are those with horns and cloven hooves. And those that live on mountain slopes.
4.The poisonous belladonna is ruled by Capricorn.
5. Capricorn makes its first appearance in history as Ea, the Goat-Fish. He was said to rise from the waters during the day in order to tutor man in the arts of civilization.
6. There is a distant association with Pan, the lascivious son of Hermes who liked frolicing with nymphs.
7. Capricorn men and women look marvelous in well-cut, chic suits. Thus their strange longing for all things Prada.

@eclipse115: pansies and ivy are two of the decorative plants said to be ruled by Capricorns. Well there you go!

Ah Libras...

LIBRAS:

1. Librans are careful not to be overindulgent, as this may spoil their natural good looks.
2. Libran men have a particular love for unusual and extravagant waistcoats.
3. The Libran charm is well known and revered in social circles.
4. Librans tend to invest in back-rest chairs.
5. Librans obtain great pleasure from playing the oboe.
6. Libras love the martial arts, so more often than not their netflix queue is peppered with Hong Kong action flicks.
7. Lizards and small reptiles are associated with Libra.

Concerning VIRGOS:

1. They are also extremely photogenic, and closeups are usually encouraged.
2. Virgos make excellent secretaries, detectives and holistic chiropractors.
3. Brazil is a favorite hotspot for Virgos.
4. Virgos enjoy family sagas, and consider the cancellation of Dynasty a horrendous mistake.
5. In the amorous arts, experimentation is the name of the game.
6. Virgoans are very busy people.
7. All female animals are ruled by Virgo.

And how about Aquarius? (with a Piscis ascendant)

benr on Sep 20, 2007

Who told you about my love for the Oboe!?

manon1165 Vip-micro on Sep 20, 2007

@benr, it's in the stars, man, it's in the stars...

@Cattya, I give you

The Enigmatic AQUARIAN:

1. Aquarian colors are electric blue and turquoise.
2. Uranus is the Aquarius ruling planet. Thus their wicked sense of humor.
3. There are few signs that frequently confer such romantic good looks on their subjects as Aquarius does.
4. Aquarians love to water their ox.
5. Aluminum is the Aquarian metal, thus the great, mountainous balls of tinfoil found in so many Aquarian households.
6. The Age of Aquarius comes every 2,500 years. The next is scheduled for the year 4407, give or take a couple of centuries.
7. Aquarians have creative and dramatic flair, thus the proliferation of Aquarian beauty school graduates.
8. Aquarians are individualists, and therefore will not agree with any of the above-mentioned items.

as a Libra, (hello Zelda!) i've never played the oboe! i do love lizards and frogs and toads and snakes, but not spiders! i am not overindulgent, but it has nothing to do with my good looks ( ¿ )

i am overindulgent on eBay, does that count?

What about Aries? Is there a "reason" in our character that could explain why we are not many in the buffet?

iqon on Sep 20, 2007

Don't blame NASA for the demotion of Pluto. The International Astronomical Union is the responsible group.

RE: "7. Lizards and small reptiles are associated with Libra."

Avast, me symbol be a scaly scale!

manon1165 Vip-micro on Sep 20, 2007

dang nabbit, them dastardly International Astronomical Union people!

manon1165 Vip-micro on Sep 20, 2007

Well, there you go.

@rossanyl, it seems the reason is most of them are out climbing mountains...

ARIES:

1. Aries are known for their courage, adventurous spirit, and energy.
2. Among the spices, Aries rules cayenne, mustard and tartly flavored capers.
3. Because of their prickly nature, all thorn-bearing trees and shrubs are dominated by Aries.
4. Diamonds are also an Aries' best friend, as for them bright and sharply sparkling rules the day.
5. The Arien metal is iron, strong, direct and plain.
6. Ariens spend a lot of money on the latest, most stylish clothes, thus invoking Katinka-like tendencies.
7. Ariens make good psychiatrists.
8. Ariens enjoy pony-trekking in Poland, which combines their love of travel and fresh air. But if they live in Poland, Tibet will do.
9. Ariens are willing to scale mountains. Why? Because they're there.
