Star signs and relationships

look at your past relationships. do your partners tend to be the same star sign or group of star signs:

aries,leo,sagittarius=fire
cancer,scorpio,pisces=water
taurus,virgo,capricorn=earth
libra,aquarius,gemini=air

my ex's have all been cancer or taurus. writing my frinds birthdays on my new calender, i noticed they mostly are earth signs

perhaps there is some truth that relationships are determined by astrology. what do u think?must be some truth in it?

just look at your own past relationships- arent your ex's all similar star signs?

I think there's bugger all that links them. Sure, I've met some strong-headed leos, but I've met some wimps aswell.

I think as long as there are relationships, and as long as people submit their star signs and their lover's starsigns to magazines, some "scientist" [who really should be curing cancer] will come up with some stats to support ANY theory.


i dunno, i m gonna google for a summary i can post here for anyone that doesnt know what im talking about but often once you get to nkow someone you can guess their starsign using the personality traits. those wimpy leos probably are egostical and firey on the inside.

are your relationships all from similar signs? if not, did the odd ones out be worser relationsps?
The two proper boyfriends i've had were Cancer and Scorpio. Does that mean anything?
will you just stfu?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Star signs have no physical bearing on anything. If you believe that they do make a difference you might see differences that are actually just coincedences.

oh and HOW THE F*CK is aquarius air?? (aqua = water...)

sure we're all rangers supporters here. its the bastion of upper middle class unionism in north down :smile:

are you left handed too?
What with the whole "procession of the equinoxes" thing, I'm pretty sure the zodiac no longer corresponds anyway, so even if it wasn't a grand pile of nonsense it would all be inaccurate.

yes they are both water signs!

for those who are unsure, yes aquarius is an air sign

Fire, Air, Earth, and Water; the Triplicities
Fire, Air, Earth, and Water, the four elements, sometimes called the Triplicities, play an important part in astrology. The term triplicities comes from the fact that there are three planets associated with each of the four elements.

Here are the planets divided by element:

Fire.....Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius
Earth.....Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn
Air.....Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
Water....Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
When these elements are translated as personality traits or temperament, they become important features of the delineation. Here are brief readings of each of the four elements and delineations of a situation when one's chart contains two of the elements having similar strength. For the few who have a balance in elements, the concepts of elements should be considered balanced. That is they tend to reflect common sense (earth), action orientation (fire), thinking and communication skills (air), and the ability to feel and intuitively know (water) in reasonable proportion and don't rely overly on any of these traits at the expense of another.

Aries (Mar 21- Apr 19) - is the cardinal/fire sign. Aries people need to keep physically busy. They accomplish many things simply because of their restless energy. They need to learn how to make constructive use of their energetic efforts. The typical Aries urge is to take on more than can be done reasonably well. Though others may find it difficult to keep pace with an Aries, they are attracted to their animation and spirited personality.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Taurus (Apr 20 - May 20) - is the fixed/earth sign. Taureans stubbornly cling to their own ideas and habits and may fail to take advantage of new ideas or situations, because they cannot see their practical use. They have to understand that while tenacity and a stable temperament yield reward in many endeavors, tolerance and flexibility are the best assets when it comes to personal relationships.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gemini (May 21 - Jun 20) - is the mutable/air sign. Using their communicative skills, Geminis adapt to any situation they encounter. However, they must learn to speak with candor instead of simply repeating what others want to hear. Geminis have clever tongues and develop an amazing ability to obscure the facts with stimulating and imaginative chatter.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cancer (Jun 21 - July 22)- is the cardinal/water sign. Cancerians get things done through the power of their emotional commitment. Not only do they aggressively work to accomplish the goals inspired by their own feelings, they also know how to appeal to the emotions of others. By making other people feel like family members, Cancerians effectively motivate others to get things done. They have to learn how to reach an emotional balance since they tend to be overly sensitive and moody.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leo (Jul 23 - Aug 22) - is the fixed/fire sign. Leos stubbornly cling to their pride. They do not readily alter their opinions or behavior at the request of others. Their stubborn nature makes it hard for them to accept that there is no virtue in giving what they want to give, rather virtue means giving what may be wanted or needed. Neither is there reward in giving misguided loyalty to those who are not worthy of it, which is another possibility with a Leo Sun sign.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Virgo (Aug 23 -Sep 22) - is the mutable/earth sign. Virgos adapt to different people and situations by finding ways to make themselves useful. To hide their vulnerability, they focus attention on what they're doing rather than who they are. To deflect attention away from themselves, Virgos will also focus on other people by praising their talents and virtues, or by criticizing faulty behavior or personal imperfection.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Libra (Sep 23 - Oct 22) - is the cardinal/air sign. Librans accomplish things because they intellectually evaluate what needs to be done, then they charm others into cooperating to achieve the goal. By unselfishly sharing the success of accomplishment with those who have assisted them, Librans nurture the cooperative efforts of others. They have to learn how to deal with confrontation. Their fear of hurting others and also of hostile situations can keep them from reaching their goals.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21) - is the fixed/water sign. Scorpios stubbornly cling to emotional attachments. They rarely forget or forgive emotional rejection. They have to learn that jealousy and possessiveness are self-defeating. Rechanneling negative feelings and experiences into constructive activity benefits others, as well as themselves. No other sign has the emotional strength of Scorpio.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 21) - is the mutable/fire sign. Restless energy and the need for personal independence keep a Sagittarian moving in many directions. They become experts at adapting to the culture or climate of their immediate environment. Always ready to travel for business or pleasure (and sometimes because of an overwhelming urge to escape) Sagittarians are all too willing to break free of the confinements of responsibility and work.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 19) - is the cardinal/earth sign. Capricorns are natural goal setters. They willingly handle many tasks when it helps them get what they want. Many things are accomplished, because Capricorns always strive to reach higher goals. They need definitive guidelines. Rules and regulations provide the structure they need to establish their own behavioral patterns. They must learn, however, that the end never justifies the means.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 18) - is the fixed/air sign. Aquarians are born looking for ideologies to which they can stubbornly cling. They refuse to budge whenever an issue involves what they believe to be a matter of principle. As in the case of the Aquarian Abraham Lincoln, society greatly benefits when these principles are noble.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pisces (Feb 19 - Mar 20) - is the mutable/water sign. Pisceans adapt emotionally to their environment. Often painfully shy, they are adept at imitating the mannerisms of other people in order to hide their own personalities. A Piscean can too easily become a victim by identifying with the personality and problems of other people, because this severely restricts the development of their own personality and talent.

hehe, its funny how people fit so well into their element categories. Yes my boyfriend is an earth like me, Although my previous serious boyfriends have been a fire and an air...which is probably why they're Ex's now! But i think you need a bit of variaty in life, hence why my inner circle of friends are all differnt elements and as such we compliment each other!

love Katy***
Can I just repeat myself :P

Star signs have no physical bearing on anything.

Well you obivously know more about astrology than me, but I find it odd that 'the water-carrier' is in air.

apparantly now we cannot post in H&R unless we have evidence.
where's yours?

i believe (note:this is unfounded opinion not fact) that it is due to the pull of gravity from the planets in different positions affectivg development. but what makes personality? the brain? al our brains are the same-ish shape (again unfounded opinion not fact) thus it must be something else
I very much doubt it gravity has anything to do with it. If it did the position of the local buses would have more effect than the planets, seriously, I'm a phsyics student, the gravitation attraction from your monitor to you is greater than any of the other planet (i.e. not earth) in the solar system. I think disputing something because it has no evidence to support it is evidence enough.

what sign are YOU? and what about your ex's. reading the post about the signs do you think this is true of you/ur frinds/exs?

yea i got phy alevel at grade A so i sort of know some. i think as we dont know what gravity is - eg a partcle or what, it must hold the key. or perhaps the effect of magnetism on the brain
Well if it's electromagnetism, the planets are neutral so they aren't gonna affect you. Gravity could be caused by a particle or it could just be the curvature of space-time created by mass, no body honestly knows. If you really want to know I'm aquarius and my ex was aries (though she was anything but firery).

Fire needs air to burn and my ex was just telling me that she NEEDS me. That's quite an interesting connection.

She really doesn't fit the aries description above tho. Oh and I'm anything but ideological.

was she headstong? had to get her own was? bossy? strong willed? liked to wear the pants?

and omg lol you have the detached scientific mind exactly of aquarius!!most inventors are supposed to be aquaries, are you quite offbeat? do you like things quite unusual?so you consider yourself intellectual?

fire and air poeple generally get on well, as do water and eatch
