Well, I've been wondering-how far do the effects of cusps extend?
The "official" days are the days a bunch of astrologists(or perhaps just one) decided to put down as cusps, a blending of two signs, on the principle that the changing of signs is gradual. So, applying this principle, the conclusion can be reached that people are always affected by cusps, it's just that the people who were born in the middle of their sign's term are somewhat less influenced by the following/previous sign than the people who were born at the end/beginning of that term.

So, if this is true, I reckon we should start checking the descriptions of the sign we were born closest to, on top of the description of our own sun-sign.

Just my two cents.

"You know,if the clock/nurses watch in the hospital was wrong,I'd could easily be classed as Libra,no joke.....i think withing the given time scale,the planets don't just leap frog into the next sign....."

Yep, it is kinda ridiculous when you think about it, isn't it?

Like, twins who are born at a cusp, one at the second before the sign changes, the other a second afterwards, would they be two completely different people?

Aye, this is what happened to Ophi-What's-his-face.

"one will be blonde,blue eyes,all the chicks will love him,the other would be 'DEMON CHILD!!!' ....:p"

Chicks dig Demon Children(tm), haven't heard?

"This reminds me of a proposed concept of sexual orientation being indefinite. A spectrum that ranges from straight to gay with an infinite number of psycholigical spaces lying in between.

You choose where you fall."

I remember I once saw an experiment that proved(well, kinda) otherwise.

"Cusps? or Astrology?"

What made you think I believe cusps are ridiculous?

"::sigh:: We've gone over this already, remember?"

Well, no. Whence are you referring to?

"Experiments don't prove things. Theories cannot be proved. It frustrates me so, especially since I just took a final exam where one of the essay questions was "Why can't theories be proven?""

Well, what was your answer?

"Anyway, tell me about this experiment. I want names, preferrably a link. Or you could just give me the Abstract. "

I want a porsche, preferably a 901. Don't have any links or names though, it was a long time ago. I do remember that this experiment checked the state of arousal of self- style d bisexuals when viewing pictures that are meant to arouse either heterosexuals or homosexuals. According to this study, the purely physical responses always showed a preference of one gender over the other.

"Theories can only be supported, never proved."

Well, I did say "kinda".

"Hmmm, so they directly physiologically responded to one gender or the other?"

Pretty much.

"I wonder what kinds of pictures they showed them? Do you remember?"

It wasn't very descriptive.
