Middle Earth Zodiac Signs
I've a notion this might work. Thank you to the author of "Middle Earth Signs" for the title. Always an inspiration.
Aries (The Ram)- Perhaps Gandalf the leader Taurus (The Bull)- Boromir, stubborn (let's say determined instead), in defense of his home Gemini (The Twins)- Pippin and Merry, the jokers (also, some people find them very similar... also ties in to the old/mature twin and young/immature twin) Cancer (The Crab)- Faramir? Leo (The Lion)- Aragorn, the king Virgo (The Virgin)- Arwen Libra (The Scales)- Frodo, indecisive as always Scorpio (The Scorpion)- Sauron, plotting fellow (sorry Scorpios!) Sagittarius (The Archer)- Legolas, not through personality but by occupation Capricorn (The Goat)- Gimli? Aquarius (The Waterbearer)- Sam Pisces (The Fish)- Somehow, it makes me think of Galadriel, ethereal and so on So I have to work on a few... Not bad for five minutes' work though!

Well I certainly don't mind sharing a sign with Aragorn! After all, us High Kings are all born under the same star!

Pisces makes me think of Gollum, but maybe that's just me. It's funny that Gandalf is an Aries, since I am one as well, but I am definitely NOT a leader. At least, not all the time. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Peace

No, Aquarius like myself, are highly individual people and go agianst orders, so im thinking its not Sam, probably Éowyn..

Don't get offended, people. I was grasping for characters to fill the ranks. On some I know I was stretching it. Sam I was using for Aquarius only because if someone had to go get some water, he'd be the one to do it.

Unfortunately no [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] Im a Capricorn. But I suppose Denethor could be one too... I mean, he had to climb the stairs in the White Tower to reach his Palantir. Nimble on his feet. Like a goat.
Ha! I'm compatible with Denethor! Go me!

Ok, I'm the cusp of Libra and Scorpio- kind of ironic that I'm meant to be Sauron, mixed with his arch enemy, the Ringbearer, Frodo.

I think Galadriel might be a Cancer. She does bear Nenya, the Ring of Water, after all. And Cancers are supposed to be empathetic and know what people need, so the whole mind-reading thing fits that... I've officially decided that. Galadriel is a Cancer.

Somehow, I can't see Faramir as Cancer... I wonder why [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]. Actually, he's more of a Libra, judging if Frodo should or should not be allowed to proceed *sagely expression*.
*Sniff* I wanted Legolas to be Cancer. I wonder why... Maybe 'cause I'm one :d Great thread, by the way!!! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Sam? Aquarius? Hmmmmm... Maybe Libra, can't make up his mind wether to follow Frodo, or his bloody pony. Water bearer my foot.

Actually, I really can see (book) Faramir as a Cancer. Think about it - they're sensitive, disciplined, caring, and protective... But the most obvious Cancer to me is Sam. Loyal, protective, kind - it all adds up to Sam in my opinion. But I think he also has a lot of Virgo qualities, like being practical and, according to my little Zodiac book here, "have a strong sense and of moral and ethical conduct." Plus, the Virgo's foods include potatoes. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
As for Gandalf being an Aries... the leadership part, yes, but Aries tended to be selfish, sooo... I think Bilbo definitely matches up with an Aquarius - eccentric, friendly, unpredictable, and always wanting to gain knowledge.

Yeah, I'm kind of a (wannabe) astrology nerd... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] The book I have is called "Astrology: A Guide to the Signs," and it's one of those tiny books that they have by the register at mall bookstores. If that makes any sense... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
Since this thread had me wondering and because I have no life, I've been going through this book in an attempt to figure out which sign suits Legolas the most, and I've come to the conclusion that he's a bit like a Gemini. Gemini is said to sometimes have conflicting personalities, and I think that fits Legolas because he seems (to me, anyway) to sometimes be a contradiction - joyful and sad, like many other elves (again, my opinion, don't take it to mean a lot). And I can see I've probably scared a lot of people, so I should just stop now. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

It's all good. I'll have to dig out my astrology book and see what I can figure out. If I can find it; it's probably collecting dust under my bed somewhere....

Perhaps Bill Ferny should be Cancer, that crabby old man.... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
Oh, and does anyone else find it somewhat odd that peony_foxburr has the same first name in her username as me, and daisy_deepdelver_of_brockenborings has the same last name and location in her username that I got in a hobbit name generator??? (If that's confusing, then all you have to know is that I got Peony Deepdelver of Brockenborings in a hobbit name generator). I never did trust those name generators...

Merry and Pippin as Gemini!
go me too! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Though I admit, Gollum is also a good candidate to represent Gemini. Galadriel's not bad for Virgo either.

Galadriel is Aquarius. The water jug look really suits her, plus she has the mirror and the ring of water, isn't it?
