Yikes, Manidipa! That story about your grandfather really *is* creepy. (I can't seem to stop checking back on this thread). On a related note, I remember expressing concern to the palm reader guy at the exhibition -- the same one who guessed that I'm a Leo-Virgo without a moment's hesitation -- because the life line on my palm is distinctly split. I thought it meant I'm supposed to die young, but he said no, what it means is that your life is going to change direction in a major way partway through. I'm still waiting, though. No big changes yet, and I'm nearly forty. So maybe it is all bogus. The cool spooky stories never seem to happen to me!

I am a Sagittarius but in my opinion, very little of the typical Sag traits ring true to me. The typical attributes of the pig, my Chinese zodiac, are a lot closer to hitting the mark for who I feel I am.

I am scorpion and very impulsive shopper who regrets later for most purchases. Bad for me....
After YLF trying to control this impulsiveness.

I am aries-taurus cusp. I relate to aries the way my head works. I have a Taurus heart. Loyal, steady. And yes, I can hold a grudge. My shopping habits are both aries ("smart" shopping, good at negotiating) and Taurus (prone to over-indulgence).

I just looked up Taurus on the internet again and there are always so many things that don't apply! Does the fact that I was born 2 week late mean anything here?

Year of the Dog, of course!!! I have three of them.

My SO is Libra. I have had mostly Libra SOs. His birthday is exactly 6 months (to the day) away from mine.

"Cancer: Nurturer, feeler, eternal child, romantic, family oriented...

Well I have to admit it sounds very much like me. This is interesting!"

High five Krish! Me too! I'm a Cancer, and also an Ox which I think is very similar, according to Diana's link. An emotional, nurturing, family-oriented person.

DH is a Scorpio and a Rat. Not sure how that fits into things--maybe someone else who knows more about the zodiac can chime in. (Not sure I believe this stuff, but it is entertaining!)

OMG. I just looked up Scorpio for DH:

and Cancer for me:

and these describe us almost to a T (especially him)! Now I'm kinda freaked out!

I'm a Taurus, with Virgo rising. I am loyal, honest, kind-hearted, determined and reliable - all that is true. I love systems, order, tidiness - I think that might be the Virgo in me! I don't know my moon sign, although I know in Chinese horoscopes I'm a Dragon.

DH is Gemini, as is our elder son. Younger son is Aquarius - very good with words and creative, and slightly quirky.

Thanks for that link, Goldenpig! High five to you too!

My Chinese sign is Monkey.
Let's see...

Imaginative, responsible, humorous, witty, curious, clever, sneaky.
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

Again, it works.

I think that my social personality is more that of the Monkey than that of the Crab.

I'm an Ox, and my element is Metal; my zodiac sign is Leo. My DH is a Rabbit and a Libra. I didn't look up what his element is.

Now the question: What traits is a Leo Ox supposed to have, and am my DH and I supposed to be compatible? Just curious...

I am a Taurus born in the year of the Ox. Enough said.

Anna

Libra, and a true one when it comes to love for pretty things and indecisiveness.

Another Libra here, and my husband is a Cancer, the reverse pairing of Angie and Greg.

I'm a Taurus with Leo rising and Sag moon. Chinese sign is Snake.

And I'm married to a Virgo Snake.

I am one of the 4 Scorpios who are replying here:

and a snake:
Deep thinker, wise, mystic, graceful, soft-spoken, sensual, creative, prudent, shrewd, elegant, cautious, responsible, CALM, strong, constant, and purposeful. Can be a loner, bad communicator, possessive, hedonistic, self-doubting, distrustful, mendacious, suffocating, and cold.

Hedonistic, you see that! hedonistic! and a scorpio too! what a combination! but calm, never!

I am Cancer and married to a Libra.

Pisces here! And yes, it is so reflected in my shopping habits. And monkey.

I'm an Aries - hello Una, Laura et al and happy birthday!

But several years ago I had my Vedic chart done, which says I'm a Pisces I think, with Leo ascendant (which is more important). I can't even remember! It got so confusing that I went from being quite obsessed to giving up on astrology altogether!

I am Gemini, typical one, and I do not believe in astrology, but all Geminis I know seems very typical I usually get very well with all of them.

Another Libra here. Harmony, beauty, balance.....and very expensive taste! And, yeah....I can definitely be indecisive.

I'm also married to a Cancer. There seem to be a lot of Cancer/Libra pairings here on YLF.
