Elements & Family Relations

I've always felt like the 'oddball' in the family and realized I'm the only Earth sign. I've actually thought of abandoning them all (cept my daughter & the grandparents are deceased) b/c I find them draining but that could be a whole 'nother issue...

My dad & bro: Fire
(most of the time I'm ok w/ them but they can really annoy me and p*ss me off)

My mom & my daughter: Air
(both Aquarius so at least they are intellectual but I think they both have a passive-aggressive side and I feel there is something about ME that they dont like - nothing BIG just "something")

Grandparents and aunt: Water
(these have always been my more sympathetic supporters and my closest and 'favorite' familial relationships)


How has/does astrology affect your family relationships? Are you an 'oddball' too?

I'm a Gem. Mom, Dad, and Sis are all fire (two Sags and an Aries). We all get along very well, but it's no secret I'm an odd girl. I relate best to my air sign (Libra) grandma. My uncle is also air, and he's considered an odd guy, as well.

Yeah, I also get the feeling of not many being able to understand me. My immediate family is composed of Air and Fire, while the vast majority of all my family are mostly Air then Fire. There's barely any Water or Earth, and I'm a Water. Fortunately a lot of my own chart is composed of Fire then Air, so I can deal with them and get along. I think it would just be better if I had more who were similar to me.

I was the only fire sign in much of my immediate and extended family. I had like a Leo aunt and that was the closest I got to not feeling completely like an outcast. Funny enough that aunt married a guy with two sons, one who was my exact age and birthday. He was wild and like a brother to me, and he was treated like the black sheep as was I.

Being a black sheep is normal to me and how I live, though I have felt in the past, "why me", but now I feel like, "oooh ain't I just the coolest 😉". It would be great if people kinda looked into family dynamics more, and not just in the astrology sense. I think families are a great place to get a start in life, and too much of it for us is just painful experiences we have to live through.

I'm the total black sheep in my family no matter what side you look from.

I'm a Leo (or Leo-Virgo cusp if you will). I was raised by my non-bioligical grandparents (aka legal guardians; long story) who were aries and pisces. They ended up hating me by the time I formed opinions as an adolescent. I personally think some of it had to do with large generational gaps. They couldn't understand my 90's way of thinking.

My mom and little half brother played minor roles in my life but I did not grow up with them. My mom is a Gem and my little bro is a Cancer. I can have great, lengthy conversations with my mom but we have totally different personalities and tastes. My mom is a girly-girl to the extreme and is a fashionista diva. So fabulous! 😛 My little brother is a textbook cancer. I get along with him the best but I have the least amount of contact with him. He's tried to get closer to me in the past a couple of times but my life never permitted it when he wanted it so he stopped asking. I feel bad but my life has been in constant turmoil for the past few years. It's only now on the up again. I will try again but unfortunately he is trying to be a man on his own. He's now graduated from high school and will be 19 in July and that age just wants to be free! Of course, he is a Cancer and family is VERY important to him, so I might not have much trouble.

I don't know if astrology has anything to do with my being a weirdo no matter what group I belong to, but I'm thinking it's a definite "maybe". Leo sun/Virgo moon/Aqua rising.

I'm an Aqua. My dad is a Taurus & my mom is a Capricorn. I have 4 other siblings: 2 libras, 1 Pisces & the other Scorpio.

I've always felt like the odd ball. Even though I'm the youngest (they're all atleast 7+ years older than me), they've always told me that I'm very wise beyond my years. I'm not insinuating that Aquas are smarter or more logical than other signs, but growing up, it sure did seem like I often had to step in & throw in some "logic" every blue moon even though I was the youngest!

Me & my father (Taurus) get along great now but growing up, we bumped heads alot b/c we were both so different but yet alot alike. Me & my mother are still like 2 peas in a pod & always have been. I've always been closer to my older sister (Libra) but that doesn't surprise me b/c in general, I've always maintained great relationships with Libras.

My older bro whose a Scorp is 1 of my fav. siblings. Growing up, I loved that we could always get so "deep" about things, whereas my other siblings would've clocked out/disconnected from the conversation hours ago!
