Its like nothing every really fits right. And I never know who I'm compatible with. Anyone want to pick apart my chart? lol. Some of you on here are much better at astrology than I am, maybe you can make sense of myself, to.. myself? Don't get me wrong, I know who I AM.. but the trying to find who I'm supposed to be WITH is an entirely different story.

Rising Sign is in 00 Degrees Taurus
Sun is in 28 Degrees Scorpio.
Moon is in 03 Degrees Gemini.
Mercury is in 10 Degrees Sagittarius.
Venus is in 12 Degrees Libra.
Mars is in 01 Degrees Libra.
Jupiter is in 16 Degrees Sagittarius.
Saturn is in 09 Degrees Scorpio.
Uranus is in 08 Degrees Sagittarius.
Neptune is in 27 Degrees Sagittarius.
Pluto is in 00 Degrees Scorpio.

I don't mind being born on a cusp simply because there's VERY little truth to this cusp theory of inheriting both traits of two zodiac signs. The amount of ppl i know born on a cusp that are totally and utterly their own sign (behaviour, looks, mentality) is ridiculous. Believe what you want, but you are what you are on that day....period. So Skykomish u happen to be a Scorpio, whoopeee that wasn't hard to figure.

I find it very hard to believe that the energy that affects us from the planets starts and stops at midnight of a particular date. The planets are slowly moving closer and one is slowly moving away. At some point there is going to be influence of the next planet that affects the people born at that time. There is no on/off button in the universe.

Because of that I believe cusps do hold some value. One sign is going to dominate the other but there will probably be slight similarities with the other sign as well. For instance I know a male who is a Leo/Virgo cusp born on the Leo side. At first he seems the typical Leo, however once you get to know him you see he has a very strong Virgo influence on his personality.

Also the sunsign isn't the only thing to be looking at, there could be other planets in a persons chart that make it feel confusing or hard to 'fit' into your sunsign....your moon and rising sign for instance.

In someways being a cusps can be aheadack, depend on yours sign, and placements. I'm gemini /cancer cusps. I am moody and very changeable, sometimes I went to be out and about running my mouth while talking about anything that I feel passionate and emotional about, at the same time I perfur being in my house decoranting alone or sitting in the house with my tab bloging. Sometimes the cancer me want to spend a day hug up with my man, spoiling him with rubs kisses and silly conversation and the next I want to leave his ass in the house while I independantly find something to do in the world. I feel like I am a cancer outside of me and inside I am agemini. Well somewhat. When someone meet me. , I am off to the side quiet ,I am not friendly but I am to myself,or in my shell, I might don't say much but my vibe might come of grumpy ,mood, and want to be left alone. The more u get to no me u realize that I enjoy my home, then when I allow u to get closer u will see my artisy side , u will realise that I am crafty, I shop too much and I get bored fast, I might talk and talk and talk, I always trying to eat somewhere different ,I crave for something new, but at the end of the day I am act my home where I feel secure at.

I think the challenge is how to please two egos , when u are two sun signs u crave for two different things., I learn that I have to deal with cancer first before I deal with gemini. Forexample I can want to go to a coworker party gemini me want to socialize and be around people. Cancer me will question everything, most of the time I'm left in the house with moody cancer and gemini Me is piss . So have to no how to deal with the egos.

There was times that I miss pass cancer intuition and logic decision because gemini me wanted to just have fun. So its all about balance too

lol... this seems sort of late... anyway---
-,-" i hate my best friend being on a cusp...
september 23(very first day of libra, right?)
she has me count her as a libra, and she's always asking me
to read her all her Libra-stuff off of my dad's books.
but when i do, very little fits her, so i end up
reading her all the virgo sections, and its the same...
half and half i guess, but we're never sure.
even when i read sections on libra-virgo cusps, it still doesnt fit right.
i've had a pretty huge crush on her for the longest time, so she
was one of the first people i tried figuring out, but it was
impossible. T,T"
i like reading all those compatability things, too.
says libra is a great match for leo, but not so much virgo...
>:C i dont know!!!

i love the cap/sag cusp. it is indeed confusing as all hell, but part of me loves the chaos and the challenge of balance and harmony. though i think i've got it nailed down to a semi-system of just observing where characteristics land.

im zero degrees cap and i always say im more cap, but i'm prob talking out of my butt... when i put it all on paper, i'm split nearly even. where im not very capricorn is in my social manner. i'm not conservative. i can be quiet, but i can also be loud. i can be a social butterfly and easily make friends. i'm a hopeless flirt. though, lately i've been minding myself, but gawd am i trouble otherwise. at times i'm the ring leader to a lot of mischief... "the hangover" status. and i cant tell you how many times i've been the last man standing.

i'm capricorn in my work ethic. period... that'll never change

i'm sagittarius in my sense of adventure and desire for it

i'm capricorn in my drive

i'm sagittarius in my feistiness

i'm capricorn in my steady emotions, my loyalty and consistency

i'm sagittarius in my open-mindedness

etc

For starters: I'd like to say that I never gave astrology a chance.. until I found the cusp signs. I didn't believe in much of anything, especially something as far-fetched as "You're an Aries. You do this and do that and don't like this and simply love that." When I happened upon the Pisces/Aries cusp (which is a story in itself), my entire life started to make much more sense; I finally felt like there was some truth in life. Astrology has become a huge passion for me and has changed my life completely. That being said, I return to the OP:

No, I don't hate being on the cusp; yes, it is so frustrating to feel like I'm polar opposites and constantly torn in two directions. But as far as confusion about direction, simply look to the chart. People often put too much focus on the Sun Sign. Yes, the Sun sign is incredibly, vastly, generally-speaking your "go to" sign. Arguably, though, one could say the Ascendant is almost as important; so too the lunar nodes. Not to mention the complexities of inter- and networking of 10 major celestial bodies, asteroids, comets, fixed stars, etc., etc. Look to the chart. If you're not sure, keep reading and ask someone more experienced.

I thought I'd provide for you a relationship resource that includes cusp signs. The thing I'd also like to stress here is that it touches upon the decanates. Some astrologers have tried to pin-point personality traits down to every degree of the zodiac. From what I see through examining my natal transits, the decanates may hold some very powerful truth. In doing so, it also supports the idea of cusps as well. Anyway, check out this resource and let me know what you think:
http://www.solutionastrology.com/understandrelationship.asp (note: it's Indian in root but is western in most terminology, but some of the English is a tad rough)
Also, if you find that the decanates work for you and are also into horoscopes, try: www.darkstarastrology.com; All of their horoscopes go by decanate; I also noticed within the last year, one of my favorites: cafeastrology.com has moved to decanates as well! Hope this helps.

Please understand that I mean this with respect; I do not know you personally and have nothing against you. I would, however, like to point out "Believe what you want, but you are what you are on that day....period." is inherently incorrect. Astrology is theory, no matter how spiritual I am, no matter how many countless hours I have spent delving into the depths of astrology to find my truth, the only thing factual about astrology is that it is a theory. While I truly believe in astrology with the vastness of my heart and mind, I accept it for what it is. And to limit astrology, the study of the infinite wisdom and possibility of the universe, and to make such a claim is simply absurd. While I understand what you mean (in your experience, you have not seen any substantial proof of the cusp signs being relevant or holding truth), your delivery was a bit harsh. And, again, not attempting to offend you in the least, but I see truth of it in my life. Very much. And I see it in many of the cuspians I know. They say cuspians are most attracted to other cuspians. My mother, my mother's fiance, multiple previous significant-others, and nearly a dozen of my close friends are cuspians - and I see it in all of them. Perhaps it's all perception. As per my last post: look to the chart.
