Astrology and Workout Style

Heh, astrology used to be a major, major interest for me.

I am a Taurus with Aquarius ascendant. Aquarius is an air sign, ruled by Saturn and Uranus.

I love boxing and cycling.
Hate heavy weights.

I'm a Leo with Aquarius rising. I like anything new. I get really bored really quick. I'm currently running since it's summertime.
No treadmills though - that's like my own personal hell.

I used to be into astrology a few years back. Actually I studied it from 2006 to like a couple years ago. Just got busy and lost interest but I retain my knowledge about it beyond sun signs. Interesting to see a thread about it though.

My sun sign is in Sagittarius, My rising is in Aquarius, and in my 1st house I have Mars. Mars in in Aries. I have my rising in Aquarius, but it's at 25 degrees so it's pushing close to Pisces. I also have a Sun trine Mars, too.

My Mars sign is square Neptune, Uranus and Saturn, which seems to be not very good.

I have not ventured into weights. I've thought about it, but I worry about what people will think of me. I know it's stupid, but I do think it is important to be strong.

I'm into running and have been since I was young. Currently running at 50 miles per week... longest run is 16.5 miles. Hoping to push for 17 miles tomorrow morning. Training for a marathon.

I love astrology. I believe in it as much as I believe in the Blood Type Diet, which is to say not at all, but I admit, by sheer coincidence, mine fits me extremely well in almost every detail.

In any case, I'll be different as far as this thread goes. I'll have fun and use my Chinese zodiac: I'm a Water Rat. And my current best exercise is swimming. Though I favor running, I'm a rat with creaky knees and spine, so I swim better than I run.

I dont know astrology, but im a cancer and my birthday was last week.

My interests change monthly. Last month I was weight training, and this month im loving water aerobics. Goodness only knows what next month will bring when my Y is closing the pool for 2 weeks.

Okay, as a former pagan (now atheist), I came in here to lurk and see where this thread went. (moar gifs plz)

But then I thought it was funny that my rising sign is Sagittarius, the centaur, and my sport is riding horses.

I truly love this stuff (astrology, goddesses, witches, magic), even if I don't believe in it anymore. Is that weird? Dammit, I'm weird. What planet rules that?

It is weird, but I'm the same way. I'd love to live in an urban fantasy novel. I just happen to know I don't. I think we're ruled by planet geek in my case in the house of the rising pun.

I'm a Taurus, ascending Libra. The only deduction I can take off the information I came across is that because I'm an earth sign, that might have something to do with me preferring to exercise outdoors? But that's only true when it's warm out - which may also have to do with my sign since we tend to be pleasure seekers and there's nothing pleasant, IMHO, about walking or running outside when it's below freezing. (shrug)

I've actually gone through phases with exercise. I used to strongly prefer weights as cardio was very difficult for me in the beginning. But with weight loss, time and practice, cardio became easier and I wasn't so much into the weights. I try to do a balance of both but when it's nice out, I do prefer to be outside so tend to skip my weight training for a few months.

Astrology is very interesting and entertaining. Nothing wrong with that!

What is your "sun sign" better yet do you know your "rising sign" (that would be determined by your time, place and dob)? If you don't know both tell us which one you do know and your exercise style? Name an exercise you DO like and one you DON'T. For instance, my rising is Scorpio and its ruled by Mars and Pluto (governs metal/steel). I seem to naturally gravitate more to weights, i've never been a "ZUMBA" girl. Just curious...
