What’s your sign? Dating by astrology
The pickup line “What’s your sign?” may have gone the way of disco shirts, but that doesn’t mean we still can’t use astrology to check our compatibility with other signs.
Gemini/Ryn Gargulinski
My current beau, a Pisces, often sends me my Gemini horoscope readings, especially if they mention buying gifts or being extra nice to those close to me.
Our signs are on the non-compatible category, but that doesn’t mean we can’t make it work.
Astrology doesn’t have to rule your life, but it does give you some hints on what you’re getting into.
I’ve dated a couple of Virgos, for instance, the same sign as my mom. I knew from experience Virgos were very creative and intelligent but tend to be a bit on the perfectionist side.
Sure enough, one dude ironed his jeans and walked around behind me with a broom when I was making a salad in his kitchen.
While the following rundown, complied from information from Romancestuck.com and Zodiac-Signs-Astrology.com, is not the be-all and end-all for relationships, it’s fun to check out for the heck of it.
All is not lost if you and your significant other are not listed as compatible, it just means you’ll have to work a bit harder not to constantly get on each other’s nerves.

What signs have you had the most trouble dating? Why?
Do you read your horoscope or your significant other’s horoscope regularly?
Is it usually on the money or a bunch of hooey?

I read my horoscope about once a week. (I’m a Capricorn, but definitely NOT inhibited!) lol
In the past I recall a high school boyfriend who was Leo. He was a pain in the butt.
September 16th, 2009 on 12:33 pm
hahha! my best friend in high school was a leo, too. she was very very headstrong….

In my dating days (daze?) I learned to avoid Scorpio men due to their “stinging” remarks/behavior. From your chart above I married the right guy, how fortunate!

yaay!

I dated a Taurus once..and that didn’t work out very well. (I’m a Capricorn). Now, I’m with a Pisces, and things seem to be working out amazingly. =)
As far as horoscopes go, they are just a bunch of hooey, in my opinion. I get mine emailed to me every day, and while it’s fun to read what could happen, more often than not, it never really does happen. It’s all coincidence…and I’ve found that many of my horoscopes are similar to past horoscopes. It’s just re-worded so it seems different, lol.

When’s your Birthday?

i, too, like them – even wrote some dog horoscopes for a while for Desert Dog News. You can word things very vague to make sure they always come true: “You will have an interesting encounter today, in the near future, or you may have had one already. Be on the lookout.”

This is cute today. Although I have 4 planets in the sign of Virgo which makes my Sun Sign a true Virgo my problem is my VENUS LIES IN SCORPIO……There in lies all my problems!!! That is if you know what that means! What fun today!
September 16th, 2009 on 12:35 pm
thanks, KD! so glad, too, you realized your venus lies is scorpio before it was too late! (haha).

No wonder you get along so well with your father, a scorpian. (Not that I’m criticizing.)
September 16th, 2009 on 1:22 pm
Marcy, can’t see that you made any sense to me I don’t know about anyone else.
September 16th, 2009 on 1:28 pm
You’re right, Ryn doesn’t get along “technocally” with any family members. She does seem to have a great connection with her father which all daughters should have. Thanks for setting me straight.
September 16th, 2009 on 4:43 pm
Ah Ryn, the future looks bleak for you (Gemini) and I (Virgo) but I promise I don’t iron my jeans and would never run around sweeping up behind you with a broom . . .
The chart up there seems to ignore Virgo-Virgo matches which traditionally seem to be a good bet. Can someone get some standards over here . . .

My sign is feces!

I strongly believe in astrology and I found this blog to be very interesting. I do strongly believe that the planetary positions effect our daily life. Keep posting more about such topics. I would like to know more and more about astrology.

Thanks, marriage counselors.
i will def. be posting more on such connections…can’t wait for chinese new year and a post on their zodiac signs’ compatibility.
