S/O whats your sign

[frannie]

So what do you do when your DC ends up being the sign that you are not compatible with.

I'm a Virgo and DS is a Aquarius like is father (my ex). The day I meet exDh we bought an astrology book for fun and checked our compatibility. It said these two should not even try to be friends and listed the reasons why. I got up and walked away as a joke but should have kept on walking. We had a terrible relationship, never saw eye to eye on anything.

Now its the same way with DS. No mater what we clash. Everyone in our family gets along fine according to our signs, except for us. As I look at my relationship with people I realize every one that has been rocky have been with Aquarius's.

I was so fearful of the Aquarius/Virgo bad combo that when I was told DS2 c-section would be pushed back into September, making him a Virgo, I refused. I did not want my sons to have any problems.

Any one in my situation have any tips?

Am I crazy to think this has any relevants to our mother son relationship?

IMO, astrology is pure entertainment, nothing more

I would put them back for a month.

I don't believe "signs" play any role in who we are or who are children may become.

I supposedly shouldn't get along with any in my family with the exception of one member. There might be some truth to it, but imo it's a case of not every personality is going to mesh and just focus on the things you love about each other.

Adoption, or maybe you can trade with another incompatable pair. Craigslist may be a good place to set this trade up.

lol hey that a good one, ya know I never thought of that.


Seriously, I dont live my life by it but I am very virgo like. And he is just like his father who has not been in the home since DS was about 1 1/2. Im know it seems like an easy out to just say "oh were just not compatable". I just have to work alot harder with our relationship.

I was just wondering if anyone else noticed anything like this. If not with your DC them maybe with your parents?

[Justicedog]

I haven't noticed it with signs as I don't particuarly believe in that. I don't know what one could do about it if it had somethng to do with astrological signs or moon phases vs just personality differences. It is what it is and you deal with it. Or, ask a palm reader.

[frannie]

Oh no way, palm reader scare me.

I agree.

I wonder if it is easy to get caught on one little snag like 'well our signs don't match' instead of our 'personalities are different, how can I learn to adjust to that?'

[vulturemom]

I can't find anything about who Leos don't get along with. Maybe we are just great with everyone.

Virgo Mother Aquarius child:


When an Aquarius child relates to a Virgo parent, it is very much a case of two people bringing out either the very best or very worst in one another. The Aquarius/Virgo combination is not exactly smooth sailing when thrown together in the same family, but the experience can be enriching for both individuals. Virgo has a prosaic, scientific approach to life, and they crave a sense or order and organization in every situation they approach. The Aquarius child spends a lot of time dreaming, planning and rallying. Aquarius is modern, finds routine dull and boring and can be temperamental and opinionated. Virgo, on the other hand, likes to do things methodically with as little fuss as possible. Thus, the Virgo parent can easily be annoyed by the Aquarian approach to life, an approach that often defies all logical and orderly boundaries. Luckily, this family twosome may thrive on their differences. Their understanding of and respect grows as they learn about one other and open themselves up to new possibilities. Virgo parents can teach their child to approach life with more organization and rationality. On the other hand, Aquarius can teach Virgo to dig their heels in and stand up for what they believe. The best aspect of the Virgo-Aquarius family relationship is that when they decide to work together, they are an ambitious pair. This relationship tends to be informative, enlightening and a pleasure when both child and parent put forth some effort and exercise tolerance.<!-- end content -->

This is what I found for me and my DS. This is how we are, but we havent found any tolerance for eachother yet, (so we tend to brign out the worst in each other). Thats what I have to work on. I dont want to mention any of this to him so its all on me, being his mother thats how it should be, but its very hard and frustraiting for me.

IMO, relying too heavily on astrology and not quite proven "personality" charts can set you up for self-fulfilling prophesies.

[frannie]

I kinda think that to. But it is very interesting how we do follow along with what is described.

I agree. As for being accurate, there is a 50/50 chance that a characteristic is going to apply to you.
