  <title>He eyes me like a Pisces...</title>
  <link>http://community.livejournal.com/cusps/29244.html</link>
  <description>So, I&apos;ve attracted yet another Pisces into my life. Why am I surprised?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far it&apos;s been a lot of me pouring the waters of wisdom out of my pitcher in order for him to swim... but my god do we have spiritual union.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Compatibility: This can be a down-and-out great match, but only with dedication and desire.  Aquarius girl, you&apos;ve got it together, and sometimes Pisces boy&apos;s emotional reactions to your actions will get under your skin.  He also moves a little more slowly at the game of life than you do, so patience, sweet girl. Not everyone can be as quick as you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And for my Sea Goat side: Capricorn girl and Pisces boy can share a relationship of warmth and love if each party is willing to acknowledge that no one has to be the boss.  Pisces boy respects and admires the strength and kind understanding of Capricorn girl, and is willing to go to any length to please her as long as he knows he&apos;s important to her!</description>

  <title>Scorpio-Sag</title>
  <link>http://community.livejournal.com/cusps/28987.html</link>
  <description>Here&apos;s a question for discussion. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do some scorpio traits tend to overshadow the sag ones (or visa versa) or do you find the dominate trait to change depending on the other factors (moon, other aspects, situation, etc.)?</description>

  <description>Looks as if it&apos;s been a while since anyone posted here, but I figured I&apos;d post anyway. I&apos;m a Libra/Scorpio born on Oct 21st, which, as I&apos;ve read, is a very volitile combination to have because of the mental nature of Libra and the more emotional states of Scorpio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do admit it&apos;s Civil War a lot of the time inside my head but I still appreciate the duality and what insight it gives me.</description>

  <link>http://community.livejournal.com/cusps/28183.html</link>
  <description>I am technically a Virgo(born on September 16th). Yet, i dont have many Virgo traits that i have noticed. From what i have read i am more of a Libra. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyways. I&apos;m having trouble understanding &quot;cusps&quot;; i&apos;ve heard people refer to them, but it&apos;s a bit hard for me to understand.  I was hoping someone(or more than one someone) who is a cusp could help me figure it out a bit better. Thanks so much!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;peace and love, &lt;br /&gt;Meg</description>

  <title>Hey all...</title>
  <link>http://community.livejournal.com/cusps/28119.html</link>
  <description>...I&apos;m new to the community. I&apos;m a Libra/Scorpio born on the 21st of October. I definately share traits from both signs, which causes much emotional turmoil at times. This cusp is really intense due to the fact that us Librascorps are ruled by love and sex. Here are some links:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.astrology.com/allaboutyou/cusps/librascorpio.html&quot;&gt;http://www.astrology.com/allaboutyou/cusps/librascorpio.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.rainfall.com/horoscop/liscrcup.htm&quot;&gt;http://www.rainfall.com/horoscop/liscrcup.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ivillage.co.uk/astrology/allaboutyou/cusps/articles/0,,160711_162667,00.html&quot;&gt;http://www.ivillage.co.uk/astrology/allaboutyou/cusps/articles/0,,160711_162667,00.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.solutionastrology.com/sunsign/scorpio.asp&quot;&gt;http://www.solutionastrology.com/sunsign/scorpio.asp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://accessnewage.com/articles/astro/cusps.htm#LS&quot;&gt;http://accessnewage.com/articles/astro/cusps.htm#LS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.novareinna.com/constellation/libracusp.html&quot;&gt;http://www.novareinna.com/constellation/libracusp.html&lt;/a&gt;</description>

  <title>Tauries</title>
  <link>http://community.livejournal.com/cusps/27821.html</link>
  <description>I&apos;m new to the comm, so I thought I would introduce myself and leave some info I found about the Taurus/Aries cusp. My b-day is 4/21 .5 degrees Taurus, Mercury in Aries, and Venus in Taurus. As you can see, I&apos;ve got a lot of the two signs working in my chart. Anyway, here&apos;s the info:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                                    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;cutid1&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Aries/Taurus - April 19 to April 23	&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aries is the first sign of the zodiac. It represents birth and the first realization of self. Taurus, the second sign of the zodiac, moves beyond the birth and first realization of self represented by Aries. Taurus begins to physically explore the world. Aries tend to display strong leadership, and their extroverted and assertive nature let them eagerly lead the new cycle of the zodiac. Taureans tend to be richly sensual, enjoying the good things in life and the physical pleasures that come with them. Together, these two astrological signs denote an active and dynamic pioneer who responds to the world by examining the worth of each possible response. The ability to follow through and complete projects that others may have abandoned through boredom or because it was too difficult is blended with the sign of new beginnings. This promises a tremendous amount of fulfilling adventure and achievement for those born on the Aries/Taurus cusp.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The astrological symbol of Aries is the Ram. Like the popular conception of the Ram, Aries people are able to accomplish a lot by sheer energy and force of will, &quot;ramming&quot; their way to their goals. In this way, Aries exemplifies the cardinal quality assigned to it. The astrological symbol of Taurus is the Bull. The term bullheaded applies to Taureans in both its positive and negative connotations, and Taurus exemplifies the fixed quality assigned to it. The Aries/Taurus can be blunt, and they are bold and strong. They are among the strongest combination of signs when it comes to meeting goals because of their reliable persistence. Those born under the influence of both astrological signs are able to initiate and successfully complete projects and activities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aries is ruled by the planet Mars. In ancient Roman mythology, Mars (and his Greek equivalent, Aries) was the god of war. He was bold, aggressive, energetic, and courageous. On the negative side, he was impulsive, compulsive, and quick-tempered, and he could give in to anger and a will for destruction. Taurus is ruled by the planet Venus. In ancient Roman mythology, Venus (and her Greek equivalent, Aphrodite) was the goddess of love, beauty, and pleasure. She represented joy, happiness, and appreciation of beautiful things. On the negative side, her appreciation for sweets and luxury could result in overindulgence. Mars was active and high-spirited, full of physical energy and vitality; the Aries/Taurus-born reflect his leadership and initiative. They are strongly independent and determined and have the physical stamina to stay their course. They have a great love for culture. It&apos;s important to them to feel good. They often maintain extensive art collections are tend to be artistic themselves, sometimes through singing. They enjoy partnership and marriage, and use their charm -- as well as their focused perseverance -- to work toward harmony and personal security. An individual born on the Aries/Taurus cusp has the potential for great satisfaction in life, thanks to the balance of great action and great will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The element associated with Aries is fire, and the element associated with Taurus is earth. Fire signs are physical beings who tend to respond to the world through action. Earth signs tend to respond to the world by examining the worth of each possible response. The combination of these two elements provides a solid foundation to pioneer uncharted territories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Aries/Taurus tends to want what they want and when they want it. The Aries side of their character needs to accept that this isn&apos;t always possible, and stop butting their heads, ramlike, into the nearest wall. Aries/Taurus people can be also be extremely patient and dependable. Their ambition ensures that they are hardworking and helpful to others. The blending of their elements, earth and fire, give them a general focus on building things and seeing their ideas through to completion. However, the fixed opinions of the Aries/Taurus can be surprisingly unchangeable, even when they have discovered a flaw in their logic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In their leisure time, Aries/Taurus tend to play as hard as they work at the office. They greatly enjoy athletics, as sports give them a positive and healthy outlet for some of their natural aggression. They appreciate both individual challenge, especially aerobics, as well as the group challenge of football and soccer. Aries/Taurus tend to enjoy outdoor activities, such as hiking, that allow them to get close to the earth. Conversely, their appreciation of art and culture sends them to the opera and exclusive galleries. The Aries/Taurus cusp individual could possibly be an expert rock climber, kayaker, or skier. Intense activity and drive channeled through a great love and respect for the natural beauty of the outdoors is often seen with this astrological aspect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The great strength of the Aries/Taurus-born is in their energy, initiative, and courage. Their ability to take a project and go with it is unparalleled. Their more earthy side brings out their stability and perseverance. Methodical determination enables them to be productive when others have long since given up. With the combination of fire and earth, they are one of the most dynamic, stable, and passionate characters of the zodiac.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From another site: Added info&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Individuals born on the cusp of Aries (the first Sign of the Zodiac) and Taurus (the second Sign of the Zodiac) are ruled by both Mars and Venus. Intrinsic in this combination is the aesthetic romantic love typified by the Planet Venus and the passionate, action-orientation afforded by the Planet Mars. Such natives must feel deeply the focal point of their life and pursue it boldly. This cusp complements actors, actresses, fashion designers and dancers, who feel that the beauty and drama of life springs forth from the deepest urges of creation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Aries/Taurus cusp combination, also known as the Cusp of Power, corresponds symbolically to the period of human life at around the age of seven years. Here, the fire element of Aries and the earth element of Taurus can be both constructive and destructive. The constructive side of this blend displays a harnessing of energy to support and promote domestic existence. The Taurus aspect of this cusp has the expectation of creating something for posterity...the creation of children, the establishment of relationships and business are all equally important in the life of this particular mixture...and chivalry reigns supreme. The &quot;down&quot; side of this cusp demonstrates itself in burnout. The practical aspects of creating life here on Earth can stifle or even obliterate the inspiration inherent in this combination. Frustration occurs when the desire to propel the dream is thwarted by those of lesser motivation or real world restrictions. The typical &quot;bull in a china shop&quot; syndrome can manifest itself under difficult auspices and the desire to tear down structures that do not support the tender side of this personality become evident. Competition for a mate can take over the mentality of this cuspian until victory or failure is achieved. Children born of this combination need to be encouraged to pursue activities and studies that they love. The carry-over from Mars, the governing Planet of Aries, gives this cusp an impetuous touch that can become both powerful and dangerous through the self-willed and often stubborn nature of Taurus, which is controlled by the emotional and pleasure-loving Venus. When these cuspians act impulsively, then their plans suffer. However, they seldom &quot;give up the ship.&quot; Having begun as go-getters, they become bullheaded and determined see it through. Often, they will take up enterprises just to prove that they can put them across...and they usually do. Because of this, these natives should exert their powers along honest and worthwhile lines. The self-esteem found in this cusp combination is exceeded only by the urge for self-gratification, which will invariably make its subjects unreasonable and overbearing unless self-control is developed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The inherent nature of Aries/Taurus subjects is somewhat headstrong and often quite violent. These are generous individuals who are broad and extremely practical in their ways, but their natures are so dominant that they frequently find it rather difficult to work well under others. Liberally endowed with both originality and executive ability, the possibilities that lie within the paths of these cuspians truly is quite wonderful. They are strong, very confident and exceedingly determined souls who possess unlimited faith in their own knowlege. These are individuals who constantly and freely give advice to those around them...relatives or friends. There is also a strong magnetic personality here which makes these natives very persuasive, so much so that the advice given is often difficult to decline or resist. Yet, at the same time, they themselves are among the last to accept advice from others. Indeed, Aries/Taurus cuspians might well be considered strong-headed and persistent in their undertakings, often utterly heedless of any form of advisement regardless of how great the expense involved or how deep and true the knowledge of those who would offer well-intended suggestions and gentle criticisms. These cuspians possess excellent taste in all things and absolutely delight in the pleasures of food. They also find much enjoyment in displaying evidence of their thoughtfulness to friends by way of gifts and throwing dinner parties, etc. There is also immense fondness here for children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aries/Taurus natives strive for power in their daily lives, but the fiery and dynamic Aries character is tempered and grounded courtesy of the solid earthiness of Taurus. Thus, the undeniable trademark of these cuspians tends to be a preoccupation with power and their birthright is perceived as nothing less than the very best that life has to offer. Nevertheless, these individuals usually possess the ability of being able to pursue their goals without inciting antagonism in those around them since others others find it easier and more advantageous to agree with the powerfully persuasive Aries/Taurus cuspian rather than disagree. Whether it takes a long time or short time to achieve their ends matters little to these individuals provided they eventually arrive. Above all, they have a superb sense of timing and the talent to know when and when not to act. At an initial meeting, these cuspians frequently impress others as being quiet and self-assured...people who know how to watch and wait. Indeed, Aries/Taurus subjects refuse to waste time in proving anything to anyone. They would rather confidently hang back and preserve their energy for when it really counts. Thus, they make for formidable enemies and capable work colleagues. Indeed, their approach to work is highly professional and those involved in any relationship with these cuspians will need to understand that a career will always be at least as important. Others can benefit tremendously from an association with Aries/Taurus natives for they emit a powerful presence and sense of capability. These cuspians are well aware of the value of money...and also know how to attain it. However, the goal here is generally not so much in terms of financial security as a steady cashflow derived from work which will allow for worry-free spending. In the eyes of those born on the Aries/Taurus cusp, financial dependency on another is a liability...these are people who would much rather support themselves and harbor little desire to relinquish personal freedom. Learning to accept financial support (or any type of support for that matter) from family and friends may be difficult for these individuals but, like love, it will take them a step forward in personal development.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aries/Taurus natives are extrememly generous characters...but on their own terms. They are inclined to give only when it suits them and are equally capable of taking back not only their gifts but also their affection. However, this is rarely done out of capriciousness or malice but because they feel their gifts have gone unappreciated or were undeserved. Often, the degree of giving here can, in and of itself, be intimidating and lead to the arousal of insecurity in less robust souls. Such a display of lavish behavior may create dependencies within both the giver and the receiver...dependencies which may, at a later date, be difficult if not impossible to break. In addition, individuals born of this blend possess a strongly marked sexual nature which can frequently lead to hasty and unhappy marriages. It is vital for Aries/Taurus subjects to be aware that the greatest power of all may be the power of love...whether sexual, affectionate, romantic, platonic or religious. Love appears to have an undeniable softening effect upon these cuspians. Although they may take and discard partners when it pleases them, they really do fare best upon a steady stream of love from one special person...particularly when such love is accompanied by unconditional giving on their part. Indeed, this may well be the closest an Aries/Taurus cuspian will ever come to true selflessness. At its best, this cusp combination is generally an excellent blend of natures, provided the cuspian in question chooses undertakings that are not only worth the effort involved, but also worthy of it. Here, there is a chance to turn initial drive into sustained power, particularly because those born on this cusp are suited to all the occupations related to Taurus, but should have greater prospects in those fields than the average person of that Sign. At its worse, this cusp combination posseses an unfortunate tendency for the cuspian to sink into the depths of depravity in terms of sensuality, dissipation and vice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many Aries/Taurus natives often secretly yearn to relinquish the daily battles of the world and simply submit totally to fantasy, pleasure, sheer laziness or perhaps another individual. Although this is virtually impossible for such cuspians to accomplish for very long, it is often a comforting thought in their hard-driving approach to daily life...a notion which may get them through many a difficult day. Indeed, those governed by this cusp combination tend to do best when they can &quot;empty themselves out&quot; from time-to-time (through sleep, massage, meditation or a vacation, for example) and allow themselves the opportunity to &quot;recharge.&quot; In their leisure time, Aries/Taurus individuals are apt to play as hard as they work. Any activity of an athletic nature will be greatly enjoyed since sports provide a positive and healthy outlet for some of the natural aggression associated with this cusp combination. Both individual challenge (aerobics, for example) as well as the group challenge of such sports as football and soccer will be greatly appreciated. Aries/Taurus subjects also enjoy outdoor activities which allow them to get close to the earth (hiking, for instance). Indeed, these individuals could easily become expert rock climbers or kayakers or skiers...inherent intense activity and drive channeled through a great love and respect for the natural beauty of the outdoors is often apparent in this cusp combination. Conversely, the appreciation of art and culture here will also send these cuspians off to the opera and exclusive galleries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With regard to relationships, Aries/Taurus cuspians are always able to make their presence felt in their interactions with others regardless of the circumstances. These are big people, capable of prodigious mistakes as well as sparkling success and they usually leave little doubt about where they stand. These are individuals who tend to choose rather than be chosen and once the sights have been fixed upon a partner, the matter is usually settled. However, this is not to imply that the judgment of Aries/Taurus natives is perfect. They will quickly take the credit for a wise choice, but the inherent inability to admit a major mistake tends to make these subjects very long-suffering. They are prone to &quot;hang in there&quot; not only because they are, by and large, faithful souls but also because to quit would be an admission of failure...and failure is something these cuspians do not handle easily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps the greatest strengths of Aries/Taurus natives is to be found in their energy, initiative and courage. Their ability to take a project and &quot;run with it&quot; is virtually unparalleled by any other cusp combination of the Zodiac. Their more earthy side encourages stability and perseverance while methodical determination enables them to be productive when others have long since &quot;given up the ghost.&quot; Indeed, this particular combination of fire and earth makes the Aries/Taurus cuspian one of the most dynamic, stable and passionate characters of the entire Zodiac.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most important lesson to be learned by the Aries/Taurus native is that personal strength does not lie in the creation of ideas, but in their development...which is all the more reason for choosing well and wisely in the first place. Thus, it is important that these cuspians learn how to &quot;back off&quot; and allow things to happen as they will. It may also be necessary for them to become more sensitive to the feelings of others. As with all cusp individuals, these cuspians tend to be attracted to others born on the cusp...particularly those who fall within the Taurus/Gemini and Scorpio/Sagittarius combinations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Personality Overview:&lt;br /&gt;-- Possess the fiery forwardness and willfulness inherent in Aries --&lt;br /&gt;-- Possess the practicality, endurance and nurturing inherent in Taurus --&lt;br /&gt;-- Has a markedly dominant personality --&lt;br /&gt;-- Becomes very uncomfortable if forced to submit to the control of another --&lt;br /&gt;-- Highly strategic in thought and action --&lt;br /&gt;-- In no hurry to see results --&lt;br /&gt;-- Expert in thorough and painstaking preparation --&lt;br /&gt;-- Reluctant to allow things to happen as they will --&lt;br /&gt;-- Somewhat insensitive to the feelings of others --&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ruled as she is by the planet Mars, the female Aries loves nothing more than a good battle (verbal or physical) and is always ready to meet any challenge. The trouble is that, while she can forget about the whole thing within ten seconds, the offended party is liable to take a little longer to get over the confrontation. Normally, the Aries woman&apos;s joy of living and totally uninhibited good nature will offset the effects of such nerve-shattering outbursts...but this cannot always be relied upon to happen. A self-motivated individual, the Aries female does not like to be bossed around. She will have a good selection of intellectual friends and is impressed with those who can introduce her to intelligent and cultured people like herself. Disliking to be monopolized, she will doubtless resent anyone who seems to be attempting to distance her from her closest friends...although she is not adverse to doing the very same herself...and may, at times, even enjoy the feeling that she is the object of emotional dependency. Vitally absorbed in the world around her, the need for love will not be the &quot;be all and end all&quot; of this woman&apos;s life. In short, she is able to function quite happily and easily without a male partner. That having been said, an Aries woman will make a marvellous wife for an ambitious man, possessing a brilliant, independent mind and vigorous energy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Aries woman is particularly attracted to men who are cultured, well-mannered and highly educated for she thoroughly enjoys intelligent conversation. It is unwise to appeal to her affections through reason and it is important to always be punctual (even though the Aries female herself is not likely to be on time). She prefers her companions to dress carefully and tends to shy away from rough behavior. She is usually quite athletic and enjoys sports...although it would probably be diplomatic to let her win every now and again. Like all those born under the sign of Aries (whether male or female), she hates criticism. It would be disastrous to criticize her in public and care must be taken to do so even in private. On the other hand, the Aries woman will respond extremely well to flattery. She is usually a clever conversationalist who excels in entertaining and appreciates the opportunity to help her partner rise in the corporate world. Quite often, the female Aries is able to maintain a very successful career of her own in addition to a successful marriage. In fact, she is probably a better wife if she is working or has outside interests.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps the major stumbling block in the personality of the Aries female is that of jealousy. This is the one thing that has brought more heartaches and unhappiness into the lives of Aries women than any other fault they may possess. In many ways, women who are governed by this Zodiac Sign are charming and were it not for this one character flaw, they would otherwise have a beautiful temperament. Much energy will be lost by the Aries female through anger, impatience and a quick temper, but there is great potential here if self-control can be learned. Unfortunately, without such self-control, the Aries woman is unlikely to achieve true peace of mind. She should strive to allow the mind to become the master and the body the servant. Aries females have a great deal of willpower and should begin at an early age to overcome their weak tendencies by compelling their higher nature to rule and dominate. Once this has been accomplished, the Aries woman will certainly enjoy happiness and tranquility, as well as peace and prosperity in abundance. It would also serve her well to learn how to overcome the stubborn streak inherent in the Aries nature of both males and females and try not to do all the talking during a conversation. Of all the female signs of the Zodiac, it is perhaps Aries who is the most immature by nature.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When it comes to the choice of a mate, the Aries woman wants only the strongest and the best. Her biggest failing in this regard is probably lack of psychological insight. She is just as likely to pick the wrong partner as the right one and some of the experiences notched-up in the process can be far from beneficial. Then, once she has sorted out the &quot;wheat from the chaff,&quot; she can never seem to quite latch on to what really makes her partner tick. As a sweetheart, her worst faults are probably jealousy and the desire for a competitive social life. The female Aries is happiest when married to a passionate and possessive man...one who is determined to make his mark in the world. Should she marry a weaker character, then she will eventually be overtaken by unhappiness, for she cannot bear to see others succeed where her partner fails. In such a situation, she can become grumbling and ungracious with a tendency to constantly find fault. However, if she finds the right man, then the female Aries will be completely fulfilled and remain faithful for the remainder of her life. As a mother, the Aries woman is stern but loving. She will never allow a tantrum to go unpunished, but is speedily ready to forgive and forget. She will take an interest in her children&apos;s education and be amibitious for them, but must curb her tendency to dominate. She will always keep a home for them throughout their entire lives and they will always feel that they can turn to her for support in times of trouble. The Aries female needs to be very careful before embarking upon marriage. She is an affectionate creature and, if not appreciated, is apt to become exceedingly unhappy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aries women make excellent designers and good writers. Other favorable professions include sales, department manager and hotel keeper. They are highly capable of holding positions of authority, trust and responsibility. However, the Aries female will become impatient and irritable under restraint and it would be best if she were left alone to carry out any duties once she has a thorough understanding of what is required. In order to be completely content, the Aries female must learn to check the impulsive behavior inherent in her nature and learn how to occasionally &quot;play second fiddle.&quot; She needs to be verbally appreciated for every effort made and basks in the warmth of compliments. She likes to be taken where she can been seen and adores meeting new and interesting people. It is a mistake, however, to think that the Aries female wants to be spoiled. This is actually the last thing she desires. This woman adores nothing more than a challenge and boredom is somthing she is unable to tolerate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2001 Erica&apos;s Designs 	www.ericas-designs.com/atcusp.html &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;Last modified: February 21, 2001</description>

  <description>Hello. I&apos;m Gregory and I&apos;m a Sagittarius on the cusp of Scorpio-Sagittarius. My birthdate is November 24th, and to say at the leatest, it&apos;s a tempestuous combination. I think the emotions of Scorpio intensify my Sagittarian character. I&apos;m trying to bring these two signs to an equilibrium, if possible. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Greg</description>

  <title>Hey I&apos;m trying to find &quot;me&quot;</title>
  <link>http://community.livejournal.com/cusps/27208.html</link>
  <description>Well, I always read up on the new news on &quot;me&quot; which is a mixture of a sensitive pisces to a people orientated aquarius. I really do think I fight with myself a lot because I feel like being a water sign of a pisces that I become more vulnerable to what other people think or feel on different views or issues.  But, then the aquarius side comes out and I really could care less about certain issues not all issues so people think that I don&apos;t care but really I do.  Its so confusing when your trying to find who you are and the two signs that involve your personality is mixed up all together if you know what I mean.</description>

  <description>Let me give a big &lt;i&gt;&quot;Hayyyyyy&quot;&lt;/i&gt; to all those others born on November 21st, and wish you all a Happy Birthday. I know mine is gonna be bomb as hell lol, I hope you guys have been experiencing the luck I&apos;ve been having all week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lately I&apos;ve been feeling a lil more Saggitarius than Scorpio ... like, a Scorpio when I&apos;m an extrovert, but a definite Saggitarius when I&apos;m alone. I&apos;m thinkin maybe I&apos;ve always been this way, and never really taken the time to notice.</description>

  <description>My birthday is Nov. 21st, 1985, born at 11:51 p.m. That puts me at nine minutes away from being a Saggitarius. However, I am a Scorpio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;ve always been able to strongly identify with my Scorpio traits and aspects, but I&apos;ve ... never really been clear at all as to what Saggitarius traits and aspects are, let alone how they apply, if at all, to me. Can anyone bring me some clarity?</description>

  <description>Hello. I am a Leo/Virgo cusper. According to THE BOOK OF BIRTHDAYS, I made this cusp by the skin of my teeth for I am the last day. Being a Levirgian can be quite confusing because pretty much everything one believes in the other opposes. Modesty vs. cockiness, nice vs. mean, shy vs. outgoing, dorky vs. cool, anal vs. laid-back, simplicity vs. glamour &amp; excess, peace-loving vs. quick-tempered, character vs. vanity, routine vs. adventure, passionless vs. passionate and so forth and so on. I guess I have to really like you, or hate you, inorder to draw-out that leo within.&lt;br /&gt;Its no myth that cuspers are highly attracted to eachother. One of my bestfriends is a Capri-Aqua cusp and the other one is a day outside of being an Aries-Taurus.&lt;br /&gt;Other signs outside of being a cusp that I enjoy are often signs that have a representation of more than one thing. Like Gemini, which is a set of twins or Libras, which is a double-plated scale.</description>

  <description>I posted a few months ago, and thought I should update on the topic.  I was the Scorpitarius interested in the Aries and didn&apos;t know if it would work out.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;cutid1&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I&apos;d asked for advice elsewhere and got about a 50/50 split between the folks telling me to go for it and those telling me to forget it, so I let it drop.  Then, just the other day, the switch was flipped.  We started talking politics.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Scorpitarius liberal democrat, Aries moderate republican round one. *ding*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It started as a healthy debate, then a passionate debate, then an argument, then a really, really loud argument.  He fought fair.  Me too.  We were left breathless and learing at each other with nothing else to say.  Then--without warning--the anger melted.  We both felt kind of foolish, fighting over /politics/.  I mean, topics that don&apos;t affect either of us directly, either.  But only the anger was gone.  The adrenalin, tension and boiling blood was still there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Long story short..... Best.  Sex.  EVER.</description>

  <title>Questions</title>
  <link>http://community.livejournal.com/cusps/24206.html</link>
  <description>Hey there. :) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am just getting into cusps and I have a few questions that maybe some of you could answer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How exactly is a cusp defined? How many days before and after the actual change of signs are included? Or do you count that by degrees? I am a 27° Cancer (July 20th), so I&apos;m guessing I&apos;m a cusper. Also what I read about Cancer/Leos is rather accurate for me. On the other hand my ascendent also is in Leo, so I have strong Leo influences anyway. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And then, do those cusps apply to the other planets as well? So do they get characteristics of both signs as well? Like, my moon is in 1° Cancer, so it should really be Gemini/Cancer, shouldn&apos;t it? But I have no idea if this really applies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can anyone help me with that? Share insights or experiences? Any thoughts on this are greatly appreciated. :)</description>

  <link>http://community.livejournal.com/cusps/23884.html</link>
  <description>I&apos;m on the cusp of leo and cancer (july 23rd), and I&apos;ve been wondering about the compatibility situation with other people born on cusps. For instance, Leo/cancer vs cancer/gemini. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks!</description>

  <description>I&apos;m on the cusp between a taurus and gemini. I&apos;m a strange bossy girl but nice and simple, obsessed with cleaness and organization, flirt by nature, possessive and cocky to the extreme. I feel more like a taurus. I have the personality of a taurus and energy of a gemini :)</description>

  <description>I found out that I am a Cacer-Leo cusp via my best friend Abby, who happens to be a Sag-Scorpio cusp.  I like how my sun is the moon, and my moon is the sun.  I have tried to find things out about my cusp, and figure out what are my wierd traits, and especially find things out about who I am compatible with.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Hopefully some of you out there have some neat info to give me.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks bunches,&lt;br /&gt;Amber</description>

  <description>Hey, everyone, I&apos;m Danice from Jamaica. This is SO interesting.. finally I can relate to people! :D&lt;br /&gt;I was born on June 21, 1989 at 1.05 pm, so that makes me a Gemini-Cancer cuspie. I never at any point felt that I fit the profile of a Gemini, nor a Cancer. Some aspects of Gemini fit, some of Cancer. It wasn&apos;t until a friend of mine brought an astrology book to school that I realized that I&apos;m in-between. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, enough about me.. how is everyone?</description>
