I'm an Aquarius (and a snake). Hubby is a Leo (very much so), and also a snake. Oddly enough, we're pretty much the true opposites attract couple. And it works.

Hi Susy! Thank you, it's nice to see you around!

Um, it actually doesn't surprise me much that an Aquarius and a Leo work as a couple, they say Air and Fire signs usually get along very well! (same for Water and Earth, by the way). Of course, it depends on a lot of different things, but since we're talking about Astrology here... anyway, glad it works for you!

Sure, I knew you were kidding haha, but I wanted to make it clear how nice I think you are (in case it wasn't clear enough lol). I wonder what that joke about touching a snake might be...

Yep, to each their own I guess, if that makes them happy...

This link I've found will surely enlighten you better than I could:

Rising Signs - The Ascendant in Astrology

As the text mentions, you need to know the time you were born in order to find out what your ascendant is (as for a descendant, I've never heard it having anything else to do with Astrology haha).

You´ve done well, one more quote and the forum would explode also it wasn´t necessary as you pointed

I'll leave you with the fly behind the ear regarding snake joke

I made a quick reading of the article and there are many things that match and I identify with that but I haven´t been clear up the issue, I still don´t know what ascendant I´m

It has become clear that I'm a hick astrology, thought that if there be an ascending should be an descending

Yeah, and we don't want our dear forum to explode, right?

Okay bad boy, thanks for the snake joke thing.

Haha, don't worry, I'm not an expert either, it's just that I've always been interested, so I've made some research over the years. Perhaps there is a descendant or descending and I haven't heard of it!

Let's see, you need to know the time you were born, the exact time. Then you can use an online tool to calculate it, this one for example:

1985, actually. Thanks to you I've just found out that I made a mistake, I'm not a Pig but an Ox!!

By the way, why did you assume that I was born in 1983, instead of... 1971 or even 1959, for example?

I think the pig was more cute
Because I think you're younger than me,actually you are old I thought you were, maybe I'm a little witch...

Yeah, me too. Someone told me a long time ago that I was a Pig, and I never bothered to check.

Uhm, so you thought I was in my 20's? Let me guess, you were born in... 1977?

By the way, you might be a wizard, but not a witch... unless you're half a woman or something, which I highly doubt!

Well, now you know for sure you're not a little pig.

I thought you had 30 to 35 but closer to 30 than 35.You're right, I am a few months of leaving thirty but it doesn´t seem, I keep as a twentysomething

Yes.a wizard,I don´t know was thinking to change sex at my age ...now I correct.

Yeah, but I'm saddened now... I'd rather be a little pig than a horned beast!

I agree, you never struck me as someone older than 30 something at the most... though I wouldn't have said you were an Aries either haha

Well, it's never too late you know, nowadays you can change your sex whenever you want!

Don´t be sad,you´re still a cute horny beast
Maybe mine is worst,I'm a horned beast and an animal that crawls and most are afraid but is what has touched us.

Sure, it's not easy to know how people are just for what they write in a forum, although one can get an idea of how are.

Yeah,that´s true, one can now even become an elf if that´s what he/she want but don´t see myself in that predicament,I'm fine as I am

Oh my, I don't know if I should really take that as a compliment... but okay, thanks!

I'd say you've got quite an interesting combination of beasts, both related to the Devil in some way haha, but (or thus) powerful. I personally find snakes to be repulsive, mysterious and attractive animals all at once.

It's not easy to really get to know a person even in the non virtual world... but yes, you can get an idea of their personality from watching how people behave online, the things they write, how they express themselves... even the greatest actor can't keep pretending all the time.

An elf? hahaha
Well, I'm glad you're fine as you are.

You Should, at least was my intention that sounded like a compliment.

With that mixture of beasts I'm not related to the devil, I'm the devil I like the snakes but it´s true that impose respect,especially poisonous.

I agree, it's hard to meet someone but I think in the non-virtual life is easier.

Yes an elf,in fact there are people who made body modifications to appear so, I've seen several photos of people who changed the style ears of elves.

orejas de elfo - Buscar con Google

I know that was your intention.

I think you're far away from being the devil! Yes, the poisonous ones are trully fearsome animals. But all of them command respect from me, though I'd like to get to touch one some day, to see how it feels. I'm that weird, you know.

Yep, non-virtual life undoubtedly offers some extra useful tools to get to know people.

You're so right, I don't know how I could get surprised by hearing that some people modify their bodies so they look like an elf... have you heard about those who get through hundreds of surgeries in order to look like Barbies or Kens, or just dolls?

By the way, not to go too off topic haha, do you happen to know what your ascendant is?

Calling a male witch a warlock is highly offensive - a warlock is a traitor who has been expelled from his moot.

A wizard practices wizadry, which is a distinct school of magic, not practiced by witches.

Personally, I'm of a "The Gods are personified metaphors of natural phenomenon" kind of guy, so don't have to play silly little word games like these, but I do have to put up with lots of people who take their Gods rather more literally than I do tell me what they've been bickering about this week.

It's so interesting to see how naturally you associate witchcraft with Gods, religion, etc., rather than with a devilish practice. That is, you seem to be aware of its true origins and meaning, instead of simply believing that generally uncultured stream, which inherited all the Christian crappy views on witches and dark arts.

No surprise actually, coming from you... but I mean, how many people nowadays is willing to go a little bit deeper than what they've always told us to believe?

For the record, and before someone gets touchy, I didn't intend to open a religious debate here; that was just an innocent comment which is somehow related to this topic.

It depends on the year you were born you might not be a Monkey even if you're Libra.

You beat me to it, dear kwimy.
Thanks!

A persons Sun sign really seems to say more about them then their Star sign. I really do fit the above to a t

Thanks for contributing! I guess it can make a difference when the date of birth is close to the border between two signs... in my case, however, it doesn't matter, I'm still a Scorpio.

The ascendant is also an interesting thing, I think it has to do with your physical appearance. Mine is Cancer.

Ambrie wrote: Yeah I always thought it was a little weird how the ones I know of are all Libra's.

Yes I think Scorpio and Capricorn make good friends too, and if it gets chaotic it's usually my fault

Yeah, though I guess it depends: the bigger your family/circle of friends are, the weirder it'd be.

Hahaha, it's really honourable of you to admit that! Most of the Capricorns I know wouldn't usually do so.
Anyway, we Scorpios can sometimes get difficult too in our own ways. Nobody's perfect, right?

Ambrie wrote: I hope you don't mind if I contribute again but I find all this stuff really interesting too.

I don't know if it's interesting, but all of my family are Libra's, apart from me and sis who are Capricorn. And my best friend is a Scorpio

Of course I don't mind, on the contrary, I appreciate it. Please contribute as much as you wish.

I don't know how big your family is, but that's interesting indeed. In my case, there's not a single Libra in my family, apart from an uncle's wife and an auntie's sister's husband, but we don't have much contact...

As for your best friend being a Scorpio, in my experience we and Capricorns usually make good friends, though it can get chaotic from time to time... often due to these Capricorns being capricious!

Hmm, there's a huge difference between a beautiful cursive handwriting and a simply nice penmanship. I don't believe everyone should know how to write cursive, but just being able to write in a legible, decent enough manner, especially when you're not a child anymore... or a doctor, for that matter. xD

I mean, here in Europe we've got tons of ancient historical documents which encompass western civilization's landmarks... but I wouldn't force students to learn how to read and write Greek or Latin in order to be able to understand those documents, unless they wanted to be historiographers (and in that case, they wouldn't need to be "forced"). I myself studied those languages at high school because I chose to, but still wouldn't be able to read a medieval codex (it takes much more than knowing some Latin).

In the same way, if I were a student in the 22nd century, I wouldn't enjoy to be forced to study the roots of computer science, programming, etc... getting to have a good managment of new technologies would be enough for me.

I'd say that juggling education into traditional things and contemporary stuff learning is the key.
