Guessing game« on: 10.06.2007 at 14:56 [UT+1] »Which signs are the easiest to spot? Without even knowing what sign they are. And are you pleasantly surprised
when you get it right?
I find Aries, Taurus and Gemini people easy to guess.
Ariens are really hyper and over-friendly and they have an "aggressive" energy to them. They are very direct
and they seem to talk AT you not TO you.
Taureans are very "solid" looking, probably the most Earthy of the Earth signs, and they come across very calmand "stable" (although most Taureans disagree on the stable part)
Geminis because they are always talking about everything under the sun and going on tangents, flipping to thenext story before you have a chance to put your own view across.
The ones I find hardest to guess are Scorpios and Cancers. Too complex, with their even more complex
moods....
So people, which sign do you find most "obvious"???

And when you look at someone, you see more their rising or a planet on their rising then the Sun Sign...
Suppose you someone and you think Aries or Libra...
He tells you he's a Sun in Capricorn
When you see his chart, he has Mars on the rise in Libra and Capricorn/ Cancer intercepted...
so you guessed his rising and planet on it...
It's a 'dangerous' game IMO

into helping women pick out clothes based on their signs....i had some success, not really a lot, but it was moreof a bonding tool than anything else.....i would throw keywords and ask questions, mostly just to get a

Gender:laugh.....one woman i was ringing up laughed because i told her "YOU people can multitask, the rest of us?? eh,
not as good"....she asked if i'm a Gemini, too....i told her no, which is why i said the rest of us aren't as
successful as "her kind"....it makes for good laughter, but you can't really presume to think you know someone
well just based on their chart....you could get a good idea of their "flavor", or how a relationship might play out
ahead of time, but with so many variables, it's not wise to put a lot of stock into interpretations
it is for this reason that i don't go to Astrologers for psychic advice or use a psychic who uses Astrology as theirmain tool.....i respect that they might have bona-fide organic ability as well....but i don't want to risk getting
an answer based on a transit or something, because it can mean one thing and the reader can misinterpret it asanother......i stick with folks who know nothing about Astrology when i go for readings
Astrology is excellent, however, for character profiles and stripping away the layers of someone's personality, as
long as that person is in full cooperation to find out which things apply to them and which things don't.....only
then, in my opinion, is it safe to make assumptions about someone based on their chart info
granted, there are a lot of generalizations, such as the one i mentioned about Geminis being great
multitaskers.....there are exceptions to that, as well......i always leave room in my mind for errors when
guessing about people Astrologicallyanyway, the signs easiest for me to spot?.....hmm......i've been more successful with sensing elements rather
than signs.....most recently were co-workers of mine.....3 women who turned out to be two Pisceans and a
Cancer.....i thought one of the Pisces was a Scorpio, so when she told me Pisces, it still made sense, since Pisces
is often deceptive without even trying *LOL*.....i just knew that the quiet, soft nature had to do with Waterand there was something in her eyes....she very well might be a Scorpio Rising for all i know
wow, are they ever perceptive, those women!!!.....a lot of mind-reading goes on in that place between
them.....they don't need to open their mouths half the time! ......it's fascinating to watch
i also go by the words people use....like these women, i heard the Cancer say "i care" a few times, so right away
i think to myself "Cancer!"

what! and Leo - they just walk into a room and you can feel the energy - they attract your attention just by

being there. And often have beautiful hair Geminis- are like little verbal channel changers- they skip from one
topic to the next in non-sequitor fashion, often, and can talk talk talk!!!

The Sags I know (including me!) often dress like they pulled hteir clothes out of the rag bag (I call it Neo-baglady) and they like ot share knowledge and go into teaching mode - and depending on what level they areoperating from can be quite adamant on their brand of wisdom.
Of course, these signs can be an ascendant instead of a sun sign

Gender:See, there's a slight problem in this assumption. My brother and I are good examples of how this approach can'go wrong'- you would swear he was the sun in Gemini! Just as you described Gemini- he would most certainly
fall into this category! I on the other hand am more quiet, reserved, and while I am very opinionated and do
tend to go off on tangents at times- LOL- for the most part I project a more laid back demeanor- while mercury
rules my sun sign- Cancer Mercury in my chart rules in the 12th house very much changing the flavor of thisGemini projection- while my brother is actually the Cancer- he has moon in Gemini- and this very energetic
energy does tend to dominate over his quieter, mellower sun. So, if him and I were in a room together- you'dswear HE was the Gemini- guaranteed! LOL as far as sun signs go however, and being able to pick them out, I
will agree that Gemini would be up there- as they are extroverted, and more outwardly projective of theirpersonality- but be wary of those moon's in Gemini- they are likely to throw you every time!- LOL

up a little- I feel the easiest sign to spot- when in a very personal placement for the individual- the easiest
energy for me to peg is Aries. After all- they do wear their-selves on their sleeves. They are the pushiest, mostaggressive people of all- whether in moon, mars, merc., venus(may be a little more subtle?), or sun- I'd say it's
gotta be the easiest sign for me to 'peg'.

Doesn't it make them even easier to spot than any other sign? I usually easily guess brother-Scorpios...
In general, I make mistakes in guessing more often than not, for there are few typical representatives of theirsun signs, as was already noticed here.

believed I was a Scorpio: I am a Gemini Leo rising. People anyway at first they think I am a watery sign, butthey could never be so wrong.
I always tried to guess the star sign but for some reason the sign I guess is always the ascendant or somethingstrongly emphasized in their chart, for example I met an Aries, i believed he was a Pisces but he actually had a12th house Neptune....although everything seems to make more sense after I know someone's star sign , or
am I just trying to justify mysel.f?

« Reply #11 - on: 11.06.2007 at 03:32 [UT+1] »Since I've known for years that I would be more likely to guess a person's Ascendant rather than their Sun
sign, I've never really bothered trying to guess people's signs.
However, after I've gotten to know somebody for a while and picked up enough clues to get past theirAscendant mask, I usually will ask someone if they are a _____, because that's what I'm picking up.
Generally speaking, I'd say that Aries, Taurus and Gemini are the easiest ones to spot. I don't think it's acoincidence that they are the first 3 signs of the zodiac, either. In addition, Aries and Taurus are the opposite
signs of my Sun and Ascendant, and Gemini is my Moon, which I think makes it easier for me personally.

Gender:What's most interesting about this discussion, though, is that of all the people who have tried guessing MY Sun
sign, nobody has been right. I think most often, people have guessed me as a Leo, and they're usuallysurprised when I tell them I'm a Libra. I think this is due to 2 things: 1) My Sun is in the 12th house so it's
'hidden', and 2) Libra is not a sign that a lot of people truly understand (neither is my Ascendant, Scorpio). I
can see where a Libra could easily be mistaken for a Leo.
Oddly, just the other day I met someone new who reminded me of someone I know, and I immediately guessed
he was a Virgo, but I dismissed it thinking it was only because of the resemblance and my projection. I kept it
to myself and never mentioned it. By the time we said goodbye, though, I just HAD to ask, and voila, he is a
Virgo! I was stunned that I had guessed that correctly, because normally I'm not good at this game at all.

happening there." Could be AS or Moon or Sun, or a strongly-placed Sun, whatever. To that end, I'd say Leo's
easiest to spot, then the natural pleasantness of Libra, or a vivid and high-strung Gemini.
I've been most often picked as a Piscesmoon and rising. (Shrug).

Go figure. Maybe 'cos of polarity with the Virgo stellium. Aries

I've always been mistaken for a Leo, sometimes Cancer.
The only bit of Leo that I have in my chart is Saturn in Leo, but then again, I have Sag rising and moon, somaybe its a Fire sign confusion thing. Or seeing as there seems to be two types of Leos (will elaborate on
another thread): the bossy go-getting fiery type, or the chilled laid-back "lazy lion" type - I'm often mistaken
for the latter.
Again, as I'm a Pisces, I can see how sometimes Pisces and Cancer can be confused, both being Water signs.

The water signs are easiest to spot for me. Their eyes really give it away, they all have really lucid andexpressive eyes, even if their rising is of another element. I can often pick out Tauruses as well. As for fire andair, I usually get them confused with each other.

Easiest, hmmmmm, probably on just a generalized sign/surface/come across level - Leo, Scorpio, and Aries
woman.
Mistaken as Virgo and Capricorn. Perhaps, because Saturn is in my Natal 1st, and my Progressed 1st is in Virgo-

and geminis. I never get my fellow taureans, maybe too close to home? Or aries, cancerians, pisces..always getthem wrong. Sometimes i can just get the element, like i'll spot an airy sort or can sense someones anfire/water mix for instance.

Hardest to spot - aries and Leo I often get them muddled.
