OK, I'll read AsheSkylar's comment as "yeah, maybe get into more of it." If
dblandford388 doesn't mind. The OP does appear to encourage exploration. I will see if I can't keep it short enough to amuse without being a dissertation...
(chuckling)
I wonder if anyone has ever given it any thought. I've recently taken up an interest in astrology to learn about personality and I've been delighted in what I've found. I also know that Astrology is not science...I'm a Pisces...moody and indecisive [with] traits of all the other signs!...I've also learned that they are prone to distraction and dreams. Are they more succeptable to things like Aspergers, OCD, ADHD or ASD? Are there any Pisces here that can say this might be accurate? Do we suffer from Aspergers, OCD, ASD, or ADHD more than the other signs? Again I know astrology is not science and therefore not reliable but its fun to play with when discussing personality and possible ASP, ADHD or Aspergers. This is mostly for fun but I've been shocked about what read about myself when I researched Pisces. Anyway, cheers.
Pisces, as a
sign, is more about expression; the inner experience you describe is more about the associated energy, Neptune. When personal energies (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, alone or in any combination) combine with the outer-directed social energies (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto--whether or not Pluto's a planet is moot) the personal energy gets distributed
out as well as
in. The approach you make, the type of energy you have, to connect to anything gets qualified: the fast-moving personal energies lend urgency and identity, the slower generational energies lend breadth, depth, and gravitas.
That may be positive or negative.
"Planets" are matched to the expressions most friendly to the energy and that's called being a "ruler." As Pisces, the Sun is in Pisces for you, but the Sun's own ruler is Neptune, which has the energy Pisces expresses best.
When the emblem of the Ego, Sol, joins forces with the emblem of the Infinite, Neptune, they may weaken each other, one may be relatively stronger, or they may mutually reinforce. Dreamers have strong connections between these energies regardless of their Sun's position.
I think the answer to your question is that Pisces, like its water sign siblings, are more receptive to energy fluctuations and disturbances because they express tension. They aren't necessarily more
prone, but they are affected more
obviously.
And I would speculate that aspies and other notable issues you mention would have:
- a statistically significantly higher proportion of "hard matches" of planet to sign (bad match of energy to expression)
- ditto, for planet to planet (bad commingling of energies).
- the Moon and Mercury to be in signs that don't express their energies well and to be contacting Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto more frequently and closely than other combinations, especially if any of those planets are also in signs that don't let the energy circuit run smoothly.
There are probably another 3-4 criteria, but I promised not to dissert.
Astrology is one of my favorite trivia to collect!
x2
part of my upbringing (and it's fun
), so, in the style of Ashe...
Western - Taurus with Taurus rising. Double the Bull for your money.
Chinese - Wooden Horse, Metal Tiger rising. That would explain the aspie 'me'
Celtic - Oak and Wolf, although I'm a bit of a greybeard now.
I pulled out my copy of "Stella Hyde's"
DarkSide Zodiac.
"The Sun is our daytime self; the Moon represents our inner psycho. The nippy little wretch rushes around plunging in and out of signs every few days, so throughout Taurus, the lunar nuisance charges around like two tons of potential pot roast breaking angrily out of the slaughterhouse. That helps explain why two Taureans born only days apart store their money in entirely different offshore accounts, depending on which sign the Moon was bothering at the time...
Here's what happens when the Moon sets off to plod around the paddock.
Moon in Aries: on hot nights you dream of blood, sand, bright lights, and death in the afternoon.
Moon in Taurus: you shall not be moved.
Moon in Gemini: you occasionally suspect it might be possible to charge in more than one direction.
Moon in Cancer: you prefer to be alone in a gloomy barn, where you moan about how none of your herd ever calls."
And so on. I strongly recommend this book for you if you think starry snark makes for a good laugh. I almost hurt myself trying to read the book in one sitting.
Western- Scorpio: Apparently I am supposed to be jealous and possessive.
Jealous; the possessiveness is a faint reflection of Taurus. What Scorpio really is about is
concentration. Think intensity. It's not just about property, it's about power to control property, and for that matter, to define what property is and isn't. Your mileage may vary. Taurus doesn't share property (earth) but Scorpio knows everything about leverage and power distribution (water).
If you're an Aquarius I'm going to go run and hide.
Remember what I said about energies and Sun combinations? No? Good.
