I am Sagittarius and Boar, but who cares? Astrology is just a bunch of bullshit.

Scorpio/Dog here. And yes, it’s BS, but a good excuse:  
“What do you expect? I’m a Scorpio!”  
You can get away with any personality flaw with that line.

Cancer/Ox

Most of the coffee mugs, etc., I’ve consulted on the subject seem pretty dead on, in that I’m quiet, patient, shy, and so on. But that’s probably because, like any good student of astrology, I blip over the misses and only remember the hits 😉

Pisces/Rabbit here. I am a very typical Pisces. The rabbit tends to be too general to make sense with me.

Sagittarian Snake reporting.

I don’t follow astrology, so I don’t know what Sagittarius is supposed to be like, but I’m told I act more like a Capricorn, whatever that means. The Snake seems to fit me, but from what I’ve read, Dragon fits me even better.

Sagittarius’ are supposed to be brutally honest,saying things without thinking how they might affect others. They love to travel and get educated. Not completely true,but everyone doesn’t fit into 12 categories.

Virgo/Rabbit

Anyone else see the irony in being a virgin and a rabbit at the same time? Could explain my frustration level, though, and my firm handshake.

Pisces/Rooster

Fish & Chicken. I guess I’ll have the white wine.

Pisces (along with my Cancer moon and my Cancer rising) fits me to a tee. I can’t remember the specs of the Rooster, but, IIRC, it doesn’t fit me all to well. I’ll have to go dig out my Chinese Astrology book and reread that section.

Aquarius/Tiger

Hummm - almost to a “T”. Please note **BOLDED FONT** 🙂

The Powerful Tiger

“Born leader” is the key word for the Tigers. They are always in the lead and are most likely the ones to cry out “Let’s Go”! Noble and Fearless, Tigers are respected for their courage, even from those working against them. Tiger people are daring fighters, they are capable of standing up to the better end for what they think is right. Although they could be selfish from time to time in the little things, they are capable of great generosity. Tigers are unpredictable, always tense. and like to be in a hurry.

Tiger people are difficult to resist, for they are magnetic characters and their natural air of authority confers a certain prestige on them. They are tempestuous yet calm, warm-hearted yet fearsome, courageous in the face of danger yet yielding and soft in mysterious, unexpected places.

Tigers are very confident, perhaps too confident sometimes. Although they love adventures, and are addicted to excitement it is better not to challenge a Tiger’s confidence. They like being obeyed and not the other way around.

Because Tigers are urgent people and always in a hurry to get things done right, they usually choose to operate alone. Tigers like to work, they are hard-working and dynamic. If you assign a task to a Tiger, the job will be undertaken and accomplished with enthusiasm and efficiency. Tigers make money, but they are not directly interested in money. Still, the Tiger needs not worry about money: just when he fears the money is gone, more seems to show up. Tigers are sensitive, emotional. They are capable of great love, but they become too intense about it. They are also territorial and possessive, if you are a friend of a Tiger, he wants you to take his side against the bad guys and **because the Tiger is so adorable** , you often do. As lovers, Tigers are passionate and romantic, but the real challenge for the Tiger is to grasp the true meaning of moderation.

Scorpio/Dog…like Azraek. I think the dog is supposed to be really loyal…that fits.

As for getting away with any personality flaw by saying you are a scorpio…Well that’s what my virgo friend tells me.

Not to be a spoilsport on this thread, but how many SDers really believe that there’s something to astrology (aside from the entertainment value)? Just curious (it IS MPSIMS).
