Have you proposed? Been proposed to? How was it done?

List the sun, venus, mars and moon signs of the one who proposed. Just curious if there's any correlation to the placements versus how romantic/creative/lame/simple/elaborate the proposal was.


No, I am not trying to get ideas! This has nothing to do with my relationship. I'm just thought it would be interesting.

Yes! Many years ago. Me (Capricorn) / He (Capricorn) - Birthdays 2 days apart. He proposed on Easter morning. He hid the ring in a plastic egg in the Easter basket he bought for me. LOL. It was clever. I don't know the much about venus, mars sign and all of that. I'm trying to figure it out.

I've been proposed to twice & I married the 2nd one.

Libra sun
Scorpio moon
Leo mars
Libra venus did it on Easter 2004 on our one year anniversary. There was nothing super romantic about it. He just sat next to me & told me how much happy I made him, etc. He then took out the ring from his pocket & asked if I would marry him...the answer was a big yes! It never happened.

Aries sun
Aries moon
Aries mars
Taurus venus just said 'let's get married' one mnth into the relationship ..he didn't even have a ring lol. We bought the ring the very next day, I had to choose it myself & he made the store people to watch & take photos while he went down on one knee movie style lol. Such a show off!

I had the most un-romantic "proposal".

Libra (Taurus Moon, Libra Venus, Scorpio Mars) was talking about our future married life.

Me, increasingly irritated: "When did you ask me to marry you?"
Libra: Huh?...................Hmm....................."I'm asking you now!"
Me: "Fine!"

Years later he kept saying that it was me who proposed to him.

I may have to propose to the next one, though. He's an Aqua. We had our first argument when we compared our views on marriage. He said marriage is not in his cards for the next two years. I've nicknamed him "husband" ever since. He needs to get used to it.

I don't know their placements other than Sun.

Scorpio - you will marry me and you will marry me this year (in Dec of that year).

Pisces - For his bday I purchased a Kenai Fiords Tour (in AK), he proposed on the back of the boat in front of a glacier. (singing "The Love Boat" all the while before hand driving me insane).

There there was one who I thought was going to propose:
Libra Sun
Virgo Moon
Scorpio Venus
Virgo Mars

He stood there in my kitchen and started stammering while fidgeting in his pocket, I told him to hold his breath, he cried then left.

I was proposed to twice by the same guy:

Sun: Cancer
Venus: Virgo
Mars: Virgo
Moon: Capricorn

The first time he proposed we had already broken up and he proposed in front of all of my co-workers and our close friends at a bar during happy hour. It wasn't sincere, it was a desperate act to keep me from moving back home.

The second time he proposed to me on a carriage ride around Central Park in New York.

Proposed to once:

Sun - Scorpio
Moon - Cancer
Venus - Sagittarius
Mars - Libra

We had some very promising news to be excited about at the time so, in the entry way of a Wal-Mart, they bought one of those 25 cent plastic rings from a vending machine because it was all we could hope to afford then. Popped it on my finger with more gratuitous PDA than actual words and that was that.

Proposed once:

Sun - Virgo
Moon - Cancer
Venus - Libra
Mars - Virgo

I tried so hard to make it nice lol. I had this whole great big scheme planned out where I was going to make a fancy dinner and have a ridiculously expensive bottle of wine chilling, rose petals and candles everywhere, the whole nine yards. Much to my dismay though it turned out to be far more difficult to pull off than originally thought. There were so many candles that some of them kept going out before they could all be lit. Wax dripped all over the place. The curtains caught fire at one point creating a less than lovely scorched smell. I managed to burn all of my fingers at least once, and while I was busy attempting to manage the ambiance dinner ended up getting kind of crispy in the oven.

We ended up ordering Chinese take out and using the wine's ice on my hands, having a thorough laugh about the chaos while bandaging my poor fingers. I was prepared to just call it all off and try again at a later date but when asked why all the fuss, I pulled out the ring.

Well I've only proposed once.
I had gotten a copy of the key to her place unbeknownst to her. And on valentines day while she was at work filled the entire place with close to a hundred dollars worth of candles. Can you say fire hazard ^.^? When she first got back to her place she thought someone was trying to rob her!!!! Called her mom and me and was just about to call the police!! LOOOL I had no light but candle light going with a nice new table set and formal table clothes. If I remember correctly it was a dark red table clothe for valentines day to go with this new set of black plates and bowls I had purchased for her to use that evening. Had a nice red fish dinner prepared with rice pilaf, garlic mashed potatoes, champaign, and some chocolate moose cheese cake for dessert. At the end I had this massive present for her but what she didn't know was inside of it was a smaller sized present and inside of that another and another until... She came to a box. I popped it open to reveal the Damond ring I had over heard her say she liked before in the past and got down on one knee cause I'm uncreative and old fashioned and asked her to marry me 🙂

That sounds perfect!!! You went through a lot of trouble and effort. I'm sure she appreciated that.

Leo Sun
Aires Moon
Gemini Venus

He took me to my favorite expensive restaurant for my birthday. Proposed over desert - while the setting was romantic and all, the proposal was lacking. I knew it was coming, he mumbled, didn't have a ring, was nervous as hell and didn't even bother getting on one knee. Call me old fashion I guess.
I said yes, it lasted 10 years.

Now, 7 years after the divorce...I'm WAITING on a Sag Sun, Gemini Moon to propose...I think I shouldn't hold my breath on this one...with those signs, I'll have to propose if marriage is what I want.

He just ask me if i want to get married already, and its not personal just via text, i dont if he is shy while asking because we're laughing 🙂 ( I guess he is shy ) He is asking about having a child too if I want already. I don't take serious matter via text only, I want to talk about it in person. So I told him yes I want 🙂 Then he ask me again do you really want already? 🙂 We still keep it light. Then I ask him, "are you sure?" Then He laugh and ask me "why? 🙂" Then i answered "yes if yo are ready 🙂" Then he said okay about it and then the conversation changed. Now He moved to province and our relationship is long distance now. Before He go He chat message me on fb that were gona moved there with him next year., NOW IM NOT SURE WHAT TO EXPECT 🙂any idea? is this normal? tnx

I was 18 and had been with my Cap boyfriend for two years. We had sex and then I saw him collapsed next to the bed...in a kneeling position. I asked him "Babe, are you ok?" and then he got on one knee, took a ring out from under the bed and asked me to be his wife..while naked. I said yes and we moved in together, planning to get married after we finish university..one year later he cheats on me, moves out and then asks for the ring back.

Good memories though..

Well..If it only counts when there os a ring I involved. .I've never been engaged until after I was married. Lol!
1. I stopped a Taurus from proposing once. He had the ring and was driving to my house. I wasn't ready yet and stopped him
2. Aires sun/cancer moon/taurus venus/leo moon- asked me after sex. High school sweetheart. Got a cubic zirconia bc he couldn't afford anything else. I didn't care m I was happy. When we broke up. He kept it then proposed to his next gf with it. . When I pointed out to her that I'm sure it had to be re sized bc I wear a size 4.5 she was livid lol
3. Gemini sun- most romantic proporal ever....asked me in a snow covered garden under an full moon. I broke it off the next day. I wasn't ready.
4. Scorpio sun/venus/and rising- asked me at work. .. mumbled through it. I accepted. No ring at that time. But asked me again 2 years ago with a cz...with plans to replace it with a genuine. . Our divorce is pending now.
5. Taurus sun/pisc rising/gem Venus/leo moon:asked me last week via text but said that once the divorce is final he's doing it right and making it official with a 2 carat and the way he really wants to.

I was not proposed to this way, but always thought it was clever and cute.

Guy suggests building a snowman together and at the end hangs the ring on a little ribbon on the end of the snowman's twig arm! Girl discovers it! Tackles him in the snow and they roll around together.




Loved the Easter one. These ideas are also good for an anniversary ring/gift as well...who says the romance is only for when you are dating?


Wasn't the candle scenario proposal in a movie?? She walks in to a room full of candles and there are boxes inside of boxes? Kate Beckinsdale was in it— Candles are nice, but maybe overdone??

Awww, come on P! There's no sense of romantic adventure in there somewhere?


Inviting you to a bonfire night, fuelled by every possible copy of a published fairytale or slushy romantic novel.

Marshmallows are on me... 😛

Yeah, yeah, blame the fairy tales! They messed up a lot of women's view on romance. We were promised Prince Charming and look what we got......lol!!!

Ah, please don't shed a tear! I've got a newborn baby freshly prepared on a spit for later, with a side serving of sliced umbilical cord...
