How can i know if i'm Taurus or Gemini sun?

Thanks for the help.

Answer 1

Dear (unpronounceable)

To make a point, cast a tropical horoscope for right now, right where you are. It will tell you Jupiter is at abou 10º Capricorn, yes? Next, go outside tonight and look up in the sky. You'll SEE Jupiter glowing wonderfully like a jewel, where? right in his happy home: Sagittarius.

That in itself should convince you that tropical zodiacs are imaginary, and should therefore answer your question.

However, if you try to apply western techniques (especially the more modern ones developed after the zodiacs became radically different) to sidereal charts you'll be confused and mislead. YOu need to apply western techniques to western zodiac charts and Vedic techniques to sidereal charts.

Yours,

Vic

Answer 3

Well, I think that the only person that can answer that is you. I personally identify much more with Tropical astrology, and have always found it to be accurate. I have looked at my sidereal chart before, and the changes that it does make does not fit me, in my opinion. There will be controversies over which one is right, and I'm sure there are people on both schools of thought, but it's up to you to decide based on your knowledge of your personality. You may feel like a Taurus because of certain placings in your chart...

Edit: I thought you identified with your Libra Moon, haha. Actually, my chart is almost identical in sidereal, because most of my planets are in late degrees. However, it gives me a Cancer Midheaven instead of Leo, and I just don't agree with that, haha.

It's too bad that it doesn't change things too much for me... then when I'm being all rebellious about my signs, I could blame it on Sidereal...Oh well. I guess I'm a Libra, no matter what I do. I can still be dangerous though, lol. : )

Answer 4

I wonder this a lot too but everyone always tells me "go with what you think suits you more". I fit both descriptions pretty well though.

Tropical: Scorpio/Leo/Leo

Sidereal:Libra/Cancer/Cancer
