path_of_one said:Overall, I make a lousy Capricorn. Outside of liking order (and honestly, I haven't met too many people who genuinely love chaos, though they may be incapable of really getting organized) and the occasional debate (though I'm really more of a discussant, "can't we all just get along" mentality), I'm nowhere near the description. I guess I can be manic-depressive, but so can everyone- most people alternate between happiness and gloominess as a response to life and its alternations between good stuff and bad stuff.
I did fine in math but really dislike it. I don't like authority, generally appreciate tradition intellectually but march to my own drummer determinedly, and I have no interest in money or business, outside of being able to afford some books, my two horses, and art supplies.
Of course, people are quick to point out that, having been born in the morning of 12/22, I'm just as likely to be like a Sagittarius.
Cusp baby. That is what they would call you. My oldest is a "Cusp" kid, between Piscese and Aries (yay for me!). Water and fire all roled into one kid (excuse me, "young man").
You have the horses, I provide for horses (and dogs, and cats, and ferrets), that my "Cancer" wife craves. I got the saddle, that no horse has been rigged with (it sits in the shed). But I pay for the horses. My wife rides, and I abide. (oh, I know how to ride, and do a good job substituting for my wife in grooming and such, and the horses like me well enough...just riding for pleasure ain't my thing). If I need a loggerhead pulled, then the horse is a great tool (and I feed him and rub him down well for his efforts). If I need to get from point A to point B, over hill and dale...horse is better than an ATV.
As far as arguments? If I don't know, I'll defer. But if I think I'm right...forget it. I won't quit. If I'm wrong, I'll mull over it awhile, then make amends. (that can get a man in trouble from time to time)
I also must remain emotionally neutral (on average). Like a sine wave on an AC power circuit, neutral is the center point. Peaks and valleys are ok, but sine midline is perfect.
As some of you know first hand, when I lose emotional control, I can hurt people's psyche. (for that I'm sorry, if I hadn't said it before). And I know that kind of hurt can never be taken back.
Words are like blades, razor sharp. They can heal by cutting away the crap, or do serious damage by cutting into the heart. That is my pennance, to watch how I say things. That is true of most people called Picsese.
I have to laugh, I been nurtured by a Piscese, and groomed by a Capricorn (both at ends of their sign, and I'm dead center of mine).
Maybe there is something to this astrological stuff...
