Re: POLL: Zodiac Signs
Aries.
Key characteristics from Wikipedia:
Competitiveness, aggressiveness, impulsiveness, rashness, impatience, courage, spontaneous, assertiveness, self-reliance I can see similarities in my personality to those of my sign. I'm pretty competitive in nature, speak my mind (aggressive). I'm not very impulsive, especially when it comes to money. But I am spontaneous with regards to activities. While I am very skeptical of the zodiac signs/astrology, it says I'm most compatible with Leo and that's what DH is.I am a Leo.
Keywords from Wiki: Vanity, stubbornness, melodrama, loyalty, pride, generosity, self-satisfaction, philanthropy, warmth, immodesty, promiscuity, narcissism.
In some ways I am VERY Leo. I am stubborn, kind of dramatic, fiercely loyal, and proud. Another big one is needing attention and love and having materialistic tendencies as well as wanting to excel in everything they do. All true.
Funny thing is DH and I could not be more dissimilar as people but he's a Leo too. On the surface I am more classic "Leo" than he is but once you know him as well as I do - he totally is too. He is the most loyal person I know, proud, generous to a fault, philanthropic, etc.
I am an aries too.
I don't really fit most of it. I am somewhat competitive and self reliant but the rest not so much. Like Katie I am skeptical.

Gemini
from Wiki:
Geminians are said to be curious and to enjoy mental exploration, to be almost always at ease in social situations, it is considered by some astrologers as the most flirtatious in the zodiac and to have a talent for writing and reporting, and to enjoy all forms of 'talk', from gossip to political debate. On the negative, they are reputed to have "butterfly minds" which become easily bored, and to shift their allegiances in a way that lacks commitment or loyalty. They are also said to experience discomfort with the expression of deep emotion. For this reason, though praised for being quick and clever, Geminians are also criticised for being elusive, fickle and ill-at-ease with emotional commitment.
I am socially awkward, and wouldn't know how to flirt if my life depended on it. I despise being the center of attention so that part is definitely not a fit for me. I am very curious though, and do get bored with things easily. I also get uncomfortable with the expression of emotions, but I figure that is because of my upbringing, not my sign.
Gemini's worst match is Taurus, which is H. Hmmmm
While I'm a "skeptic", I also feel like they write this sh*t about me every time I read it. Everything about a Cancer describes me.
My DH is a Taurus, and we are the most compatible, which is good.
Zac is an Aquarius, and he's my polar opposite, we wouldn't fare well in love but apparently we make excellent friends, which is nice to know.
Aquarius. From random website, as Wiki was no help:
Traditional
Aquarian Traits
Friendly and humanitarian
Honest and loyal
Original and inventive
Independent and intellectual
On the dark side....
Intractable and contrary
Perverse and unpredictable
Unemotional and detached
I'd actually say this fits me to a T. I'm very friendly and compassionate, honest and loyal to a fault at times, yet I'm also very detached ... I think my DH needs me more than I could ever see myself needing him. I also look at both sides of an issue and usually still dont' come to a steadfast decision. I can also be contrary, I can come up with some wild ideas (unpredictable).
Gemini for me too. With the exception of the flirting part, it describes me pretty accurately.
Our crazy, wonderful life
I'm a Pisces. The info on Wiki for Pisces doesn't really broach personality traits, but this is what I found from another site:
"People born under the zodiac sign Pisces are also termed as the dreamers. These individuals love to be spiritually inclined and their life motto is ?I Believe?. They are artistic, and creative individuals blessed with an immense power of imagination. Pisces people often have high hopes and dreams, however timid individuals as they are, if their dreams are not fulfilled, they feel thwarted and try and escape life. These people are very emotional and caring and sensitive to the feelings of other individuals. Pisces people are so caught up with the lives of the ones they care about that they forget their lives completely."
I think is somewhat decribes me in that I'm creative & artistic, and I am slightly timid, but I don't think debilitatingly so. I also don't feel like I'm overly caught up in everyone else's lives. In fact, I feel like I'm much more easy-going about others & tend to not really care so much about what other people do.

I'm an Aries through & through: assertive, adventurous, ambitious, fearless, intellectual.
DH is a Capricorn but I don't see many of the sign's traits in him. He's certainly not practical or prudent (which is why I hold the checkbook) but he is definitely patient & funny.
I'm a Pisces too. I do think I'm creative but I usually fail at execution. I do get way too invested in other people. If something bad happens to someone I know I will feel sad/bad about it as much as if it were me.
I'm a libra:
defining characterstics: outwardly expressive, extrovert -- all describe me very well.

I am an Aquarius, and it fits me ok. I am not sure I fit many of the dark side traits. DH is a Cancer and we are supposed to be a bad match, I guess opposites attract:)
I'm a Cancer, and I read up on you Aquarius' because Zac is one. And while we don't make good lovers (no grossness intended) we make great friends. I was actually very pleased with what I read of our compatibility.
Surprisingly enough,this couple can be charming chums. Actually, Aquarians are nearly always better as buddies than as partners in passion and that captivating Cancerian quality of caring and cosseting makes them fantastic friends.They are deliciously diligent towards their nearest and dearest and the Aquarian will enjoy it when the Crab's protective hands come on. Whenever they get together, it'll be one long laugh.

So in terms of mother son, I thought this was sweet, especially my protective hands. For you and your hubs, I think it means good things will come from your marriage.
