This is one of the areas that makes me identify with my Sun sign, Gemini. I like a bit of gossip and I like to know what is going on. But if someone told me to mind my own business I'd be mortified - Libran Moon. It would mean I'd crossed the line. The exception to this is if I was checking up on something because someone is lying about something that effects me directly and I am calling them out. It has happened. My husband says I am more like my Rising sign, Scorpio. My Moon is also conjunct Pluto, so maybe he is picking up on that part of my personality. I like to know what makes people tick (hence the interest in astrology). When I find out a bit about this and a little about their backgrounds it helps me understand them more and be more tolerant. For some reason people do tell me very personal things, more than once they have said they haven't told anyone else. In that situation I think it is only reasonable that it doesn't get repeated even if that is a test of my self-control. IP: Logged |

Oooh, I get that too blue moon, people telling me personal stuff just like that.. And I hate keeping secrets, both my own and others, I actually prefer not to have any, because I know I can't keep even my own. I do try to keep others though, but it depends how interesting the information is in the light of the situation and the degree of loyalty to the person who told me and the person who might have an interest in it. But real, juicy, important secrets that make or break a situation rarely comes along, so that's not really a problem, and if I do tell something I do it because I feels it is the right thing to do in the light of the situation. Anyway...I'd also be mortified if someone told me to mind my own business, but that never happens, because I never ask people about stuff. I actually think people tell me stuff because I never ask. If I'm curious about something I always take back routes to finding out what I want. Maybe a little Moon-Pluto Conjunction secrecy playing out there..? The people who confide in me are never the people I WANT to know anything about though, ain't that just typical ![](http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/wink.gif) ------------------ Cancer Rising Gemini Sun Libra Moon Cancer Venus Gemini Mars IP: Logged |

Thank you for all of your replies so far. I actually got some very different perspectives on this that I wasn't expecting. I thought this might be a boring thread.. because I was really just complaining about a situation - involving friends/family being nosy about my relationship lol But wow there are so many ways to be nosy I wasn't even aware of. It's all very interesting! Keep it coming lol IP: Logged |

I think most people never want to seem nosy or like they enjoy gossip. For the most part it is bull. Everyone likes a good story, it is what they do with it that counts. I love to hear the juicy stuff. I don't tell the information but for some reason people love to tell me what is going on, why it's going on and why it is going on with. I get it from my family, I get it from my husband's family, but I never let them know what I know and I am very guarded about what I know. LOL... I have Pluto conjunct ASC in the first house. I also have Jupiter and Neptune in the 2nd and 3rd House. Finding out what makes a person tick is easy...it's how you use that information which is important. When I was young it was easy for me to get into somoene's head and let them know. As I have gotten older I try not to ever cross that line. I can even get a major impression about a person without knowing them, it's more about knowing someone close to them. I am not nosy in the sense that I look for things. Most often information falls into my path. I have no desire to look at my husband's information, e-mails or his accounts, even though I know all the passwords. It means nothing to me because I trust him..LOL.. In fact, I believe he is nosier than me. He loves to watch what I am posting or listen to my calls (not by picking up the other end, but by being there as I talk). It doesn't bother me, I just attribute it to him being a Leo. My grandmother was a Leo and she was NOSY as all get out. I once read (by Linda Goodman) that a Leo is always nosy, if they see their mate looking out the window while doing dishes, they want to know what their mate is thinking about. LOL.. Bear is the same.. Suffice it to say- yes, I love information, even gossip but I am not a snoop unless incredibly provoked. IP: Logged |

Well, what else to call it than Astro-snooping? ![](http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/biggrin.gif) I always try to ferret out the birth data of people that interest me so I can Astro-snoop. I know from personal experience how revealing a natal chart actually is, so there is noe reason for me to expect it's not that revealing for everyone else too ![](http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/biggrin.gif) ------------------ Cancer Rising Gemini Sun Libra Moon Cancer Venus Gemini Mars IP: Logged | |
