Dungeons and Dragons« on: 06.05.2007 at 22:30 [UT+1] »Hell yeah, I'm a geek
I have co-designed a ridiculously Neptunesque RPG/Myth&Legends/DnD website
http://worldsofimagination.com/ , with my boyfriend, which includes a forum.
Okay, so it was mostly designed by him, but there was a very weird "ruling planet reversal". I am in charge of all
the technical stuff, sorting out the bugs, and he's in charge of all the art, design and content. Given that I'm aPisces and he's an Aquarius, one would thought it was the other way round....
Anyhoo, one day we decided to go through everyone's profiles, and we counted that the majority of people
who joined the forum were Aquarians and Pisces. Which, in fairness, was bleedin' obvious, don't need toexplain why!!
But highly surprisingly we also found a lot of Taureans had joined as well. Which in general, in the books,
Taureans are described as stuffy, boring and stubborn - they never mention that they are just as interested inoccult, new age stuff, fantasy stuff as Aquas and Piscs. And they are not boring either. The ones I've met, if
they are not dragging me to the local Psychic Fayre, they are telling me what my rising sign is like....

Unfortunately the forum went down while we tried to upgrade - I fixed it as per - but the upgraded version
doesn't give the birthdates. (There is a thread on there about starsigns, all the Aquarians have happily replied.....and one Cancer)
Anyway, any RPG geeks out there? And what sign are you? Are you Taurean???

Not sure what else in a chart would contribute to interest in certain games? Perhaps 5th house? My 5th house isempty... but he has Uranus in Scorpio in the 5th.

And I've just checked my 5th house, it has nothing in there but it's ruled by....... none other than Taurus!! Ialso have Neptune in the 12th...

I have Taur asc. Moon/nept conj. 8th. I have Mars/venus in Aqua and Pisces MC.
I love RPG games! I'm addicted to RS
I sun sign capricorn also rules my 8th house, which demonstrates my miserliness as I refuse to spend
bucketloads of money on WOW or anything fancy like that. RS is simple and I dont have to upgrade mygraphics card to support it either. (I am so cheap LOL although I do fork out $12 a month to play RSmembers...)Back to top

astrology! I joined MySpace back in March and most of my new friends are Earth signs. A number of these are

Gender:healers, lightworkers or ecologists.
I have Virgo rising, but I'm more like a Pisces in my beliefs. Pisces is my Descendant, so I guess that is why I
attract like-minds. I'm an Aries, but a very girly Aries! Who says that fairies don't exist?

Re: Dungeons and Dragons« Reply #6 - on: 08.05.2007 at 05:17 [UT+1] »I'm not currently active, but I am also a lifelong gamer. I'm a Capricorn with nothing in Taurus, but I do haveMars in Leo in the 5th (sounds like romantic adventure to me). I have Uranus there as well.
I wonder if there could also be a 7th house connection - getting to play 'the other' within oneself.

Re: Dungeons and Dragons« Reply #7 - on: 08.05.2007 at 07:16 [UT+1] »Hi!, yes I am a stuffy, boring and stubborn Taurus!

But (thanks God!), I do have my Moon in Pisces

And the worse, I have the terrible Virgo as rising sign!!

and that is what saves my life (I'd commit suicide if I had

my Moon in Capricon,lets say).
Yes, I like art and especially "dark"/gothic and fantasy art a lot. I adore Luis Royo's work. But I think that thishas more to do with my Piscean Moon's aspects (opposition Pluto/ trine Neptune in Scorpio) and less with myTaurus Sun. Taurus loves art,pisces loves fantasy art,neptune in Scorpio and Pluto love dark fantasy art.
Now about the RPGames,yes I find them exciting. But I'm 38 years old and RPG with dragons seem to me alittle "childish''. Luckily,there are other kind of RPG for older boys
By the way, I visited your site.Great work,congratulations!

I think that Taureans really do get such bad press, in fact, ALL the Earth signs, very unfairly.
Every other Taurus I know is into RPG, Astrology, myths, legends, etc. My Double Taurus Aunt, with seven otherplanets rising, is obsessive about astrology!!!
Lots of Virgos, including my sister, are well into astrology - they love analysing and "dissecting" the signs. They
can also see the symbolism of the signs, aspects, etc, as another Virgo friend can, who sometimes merges itwith Greek Mythology.
Most of the Capricorns I know are more Myths, Legends, Fairy tales and Fantasy stuff. They're the least
interested in Astrology and RPG though, but I still know a few that are into it though.
Sarah, I think you may be right about the 7th house, my BF has a stellium in the 7th, including the sun andmoon. Maybe the DC can represent the "other" self.
Plus he has Taurus MC - I don't know if that links somehow in terms of building the website.
Oddly enough, I just realised I have Uranus in the 10th house - hence being the techie-girl for the site (Hell,I'm even the techie-girl at my place of work as well)I think somehow the two topics can merge. Most people I know seem to be into both., but with some people
one more than the other.

A Taurus lady I know online is very keen on RPG's, mythology, fantasy and has a real girly appreciation for fairyPosts: 154
Gender:tales. She was with one of the MMORG's, can't recall which one, don't think it was WOW but another. And myTaurus rising brother was right into Dungeons and Dragons from his teens on up, and would still be at it if he
only had the time to spare.

Guilty as charged!

Barbarian = Aries
Bard = Leo
Cleric = Sagittarius
Druid = Gemini

Gender:Gemini a Druid, rather than ol' brown rice Virgo? I think Geminis might be better in the illusionist category(Pisces isn't glittery enough).
Aries or Sagittarians might also make good Rangers. Kudos on making Capricorns wizards, although someother signs might beg to differ.
Query: was Sorcerer a class T$R added recently?
Other thought: what about the thief class? I presume Scorpio or Capricorn would make an excellent assassin..

Re: Dungeons and Dragons« Reply #13 - on: 10.05.2007 at 19:24 [UT+1] »I think Capricorns would make great Wizards, due to the Saturnian-like wisdom, I see wizards as the "oldteacher" or "wise master". I did initially think Aquarius though, but they are too unpredictable to be a Wizard.
I think Scorpios would make the better assassins - they are highly secretive, and are usually the 110%dedicated to their mission.
The Sorcerer is a recent addition as a core class, as of version 3.0 Advanced Dungeons and Dragons (now justDungeons and Dragons), I think!!!

Re: Dungeons and Dragons« Reply #14 - on: 12.05.2007 at 12:01 [UT+1] »Hmm... your choices are interesting but I would classify the popular D&D classes as follows:
Barbarian = Aries (CHAAAARGE!)
Bard = Gemini (talk your ear off) or maybe Leo (LOOK AT ME!!)
Cleric = Libra (sees both sides of things, the peacemakers) or Virgo (perfection, critical of self & others)
Druid = Sagittarius (loves the outdoors) or same as ClericFighter = Taurus (rock-solid) or Aries
Illusionist = Pisces
Paladin = same as Cleric, also possibly Leo (SO self-righteous at times!)
Ranger = Sagittarius (the archer, loves the outdoors)
Sorcerer = Aquarius
Thief = Scorpio (keepers of secrets)
Wizard = Capricorn (old & wise but cranky)
can't think of one to fit with Cancer
