    I'm a believer. I was actually studying a sign just now when I saw this.

    I'm a Taurus. Earth sign. In some ways I'm a cliche Taurus...more ways I realize as I understand horoscopes more and more.

    I see the horoscope as a map, and it indicates things, but like all maps, it's very different than the territory it points to.

    Interesting way to put it.

    Astrology falls in to the same category as religion with me.

    It's all crap.

    That really is on the cusp. Are you considered Gemini or Taurus? Or to have traits of both?

    I don't really believe in much. I did read a roommates astrology book once and it described me almost spot on as a person. So it was a little creepy and cool at the same time. I'm the classic Piscean.
    NERDS!

    Have both traits is what I have read. I think it leaves me unusually hard to be convicted to anything.

    interesting.

    Thanks for putting me onto the cusp thing...I've only recently gotten into horoscopes and have glossed over cusps thus far. I'm seeing a lot of relevent horoscope patterns around me. I'm born on April 22, and therefore am on the Aries/Taurus cusp. I've been hanging out with this guy who is an Aries, and have been looking at it as he being Aries, and myself as Taurus, and really it takes on a different slant when I take into consideration my own Arien touch.

    Peace.

    I'm a Leo. According to wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_(astrology) Leo's are extroverts. However, I have been typed as an introvert in personality tests. I think I'm both. When I'm in a social situation I tend to be very talkative (angelica, you know this about me ;)). But I prefer solitude to social situations. It also says it is a masculine sign which is interesting since people here think I'm a guy until they get to 'know' me.

    Wow...I had no idea you were a Leo...at least lately as I've been studying signs more! That makes total sense! You have a big fiery (active/potent) personality, that's for sure!!

    I was just reading about my cusp from the same site...where it says this:

    "As with all cusp individuals, these cuspians tend to be attracted to others born on the cusp...particularly those who fall within the Taurus/Gemini and Scorpio/Sagittarius combinations". http://www.novareinna.com/constellation/tauruscusp.html

    So, HushBull.........what do you look like?? ;):D

    How did I know a thread about astrological signs would turn into attempts at loveage... Such a cliche. :D

    The positive traits and negative traits are interesting. I definitely see some of those in myself, but not all of them. Argumentative was one of the negatives. He he.....

    i wouldn't say i have 'belief' so much as i find it wildly fascinating. i would not base any life decisions on it, but i also find if you really research it, there are many 'truths' in it. i do in some way have a belief in a 'connectedness' between all things, so astrology wouldn't be so far fetched per se. i am on the cusp of scorpio/sag, leaning more towards sag....although definite traits of both. i've had my chart done, etc....and it IS unbelievably interesting. not those wildly vague things you read in the papers, but things based on your exact place/time of birth.....soooo cool! my husband is a gemini and we have the sort of tumultuous relationship such an astrological pairing would mean, and i see much of people's zodiacs within their personalities, people i know very well, etc. so no, i would never base life on it, but it is damn interesting to read, study and discuss.
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    Wow... Robert Smith is in the same Hitler/Barbra/me cusp.... :D
