Ha! Where is his rising and mars? And moon and venus? Just out of interest lol! (and I think you'd probably get on better with my partner too!)

Or is it R2D2?

Yeah its funny that you mention Jamie Oliver. Mr 23 looked exactly like Jamie Oliver when he was a toddler. Not now though, nothing alike now.

Well the broad shoulders is right. Every male Leo I know, including myself has fairly broad shoulders.
The hair thing I think is subjective to "how Leo" the Leo is. For me I've always either had bleach-blond hair, or highlighted blond hair, (my natural is a border between blond/light brown), which is styled in the "rockstar" manner.
As for the eyes mine are a lame brown, that on rare occasions turn kind of a clear green (usually when I go in the ocean), go fig? But I have always been told that people can see fire in my eyes when I'm aroused, like when I'm angry, working intensely on somehthing, or in other situations when I'm aroused...
Let's not forget most Leos have very shapely posteriors!!!!

Another questionable photo, but more for the quote (one of my favourite quotes actually):

I’d spent my entire teenage years suffering one unrequited love affair after the other. I was so shy I couldn’t even talk to girls. If I fancied them, I’d follow them home, but I didn’t have the guts to approach them. I was a teenage stalker. The same went for John. The first time I saw him he was this specky geek with nicotine-stained fingers, trembling with fear at the prospect of having to meet people. And his name wasn’t even John. It was Nigel. He was a Nigel with glasses, poor sod. I remember staring at his face and slowly realising that he was rather beautiful, exquisite in fact. I mean, this was the best looking guy I’d seen in years, maybe my whole life. Losing his glasses and changing his name to John was the best thing he ever did. He was a man transformed. To see him in action was incredible. He could charm the knickers off anyone.

Straight guys don't normally notice how good looking another straight man is (from my experience), however a lot of straight guys have noticed JT for some reason:

1. John Taylor
21 thumbs up
Founder member and bass-player of UK pop phenomenon Duran Duran whose real name is actually NIGEL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Once the sexiest man on the planet, had this disturbing characteristic of making adolescent boys really confused about their sexuality
I bet he fancies John Taylor, he's been nicking my extended format / special footage Girls on Film videotape!!

Play the ******* bass John!: a recurrent mantra in any Duran Duran gig this side of the millenium

Unfortunately I can't find the exact quote relating to JT, but he said words to the effect of that he has slept with about two hundred women and almost one guy. Now, I don't think the guy is Phil Collins, SLB might be a very apt candidate given their relationship. Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if something happened between them.

I made the assumption that SLB has a 10 deg Leo asc. Not sure if he'd have ura in the 1st. I don't detect anything aqu about SLB.

Simon has his venus trine JT's (out of sign), simon has his venus opp JT's mars/eros (but out of sign). Moon conj moon (5 deg), SLB ura squ JT's moon - a bit of a thrill there; SLB sun opp JT's mars (out of sign). SLB's venus conj JT's neptune but this is a generational thing. JT's chiron trines sco stellium of SLB. SLB's pluto has personal planet aspects to (various sorts of aspects) JT's sun, moon, venus and mars. JT's pluto has various aspects to SLB's personal planets but they are a bit too wide, except he does have a trine to SLB's mars. POF conj valentine. Asteroid Taylor in SLB's chart is conj his pluto and Johnny is conj ura. Lebon is in JT's 7th house. Sounds a bit rumpy pumpy to me.

Oddly Johnny and Taylor are trine Simon's MC.

Well I wouldn't say I'm into the two-guy thing generally. But it looks good to me if at least one of the guys is a crush and is normally heterosexual. I'm blaming it on my Venus in Gemini and Mars in Pisces - my placements obviously like that sense of mutability.

OK, I've looked at a few more asteroids with some interesting results:

* John's anteros is conj SLB's Mars (hmmmm, very fatal)
* JT's bonk opp SLB's sun/venus (Yep, it happened)
* SLB's lust trine JT's neptune (SLB lusted over JT and saw him as a dream)
* SLB's bonk/sydney square JT's saturn (JT must've thought it wasn't good enough)
* JT's sydney is conj SLB's chiron (hurt feelings for SLB?) and opp SLB's ura (an different occurrence in Sydney?)

So JT was action man on the prowl for love returned. SLB lusted over him, thought JT was a dream. SLB returned the love but the "act" might've been a bad one in Sydney. SLB was hurt about it.

For a time, all the fame, hits and hair dye afforded the band a genuine jet-set lifestyle. Le Bon says he didn't lose himself in the sex, drugs and electro-rock as much as some of the other band members, with the exception of an extended stay in Australia late in 1983.

As for JT obsessing about Bolan, its possible. There was a post a week back about "what is love"? Koiflower quoted some interesting things about physical attraction:
http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/018897.html

quote:

People fall in love for different reasons. This isn't about astrology, but people's visual attraction based on face shapes. There are three ways to fall in love:
Harmonism - each person in partnership shares the same proportions as each other, ie, mathematically proportioned measurements are the same from forehead to bridge of nose, length of nose, interval between nose and mouth and length of chin.

Echoism - partners tend to look alike. The couple can visually mirror each other with facial features eg, strong jaw, petite jaw, wide nostrils, defined lips, full lips etc..

Prima Copulism - the person falls in love with someone who looks like someone who had great influence over them as a child, eg. nanny, grandparent, parent

You're not going crazy! Most people have a confusing time with attraction at least once in their life!! I just thought I would throw the above idea in, to give you something else to ponder.... However, I think synastry in astrology is an amazing science. It is full of infinite possibilities!!! Try comparing your chart with other ex's, and you may see how your attractions may be based on different energies.

We've already said that JT has some resemblance to Bolan. So he had an attraction to him on the basis of echoism and maybe prima copulism (if you think Marc looks like his mum!)

I haven't heard anything specific about JT and Bolan though apart from JT obviously having some admiration of him as a pop star. As for Bolan and Bowie, God knows what was going on there, it was the 70s!

But yes, bi-curious... and I forgot about Boy George. Who happened to be having a relationship with the Culture Club drummer Jon Moss, so I recall.

The echoism thing is really interesting. That definitely makes a case for JT admiring Marc. I'm guilty of falling in love via some form of echoism myself... not always, but it's happened. Personally I think Mr Gemini has a prima copulism thing going on with me. The number of times I've been mistaken for his mother's daughter!

I agree, I think there can still be compatibility when planets are in the same sign, even without the usual orb of influence. Depending on other factors of course.

I think those attraction phenomena are very common. I can certainly think of men that I have been attracted to that remind me of my father. My dad is or was tall in his younger day, was strong figured and had curly hair. He's a leo (not sure of his rising, I suspect he is leo rising but 12th house sun) and often men with a leo physique and curly hair can set me off. Its not surprised to hear about Mr GL. My partner is the same, he says that I remind him of his mum. We physically don't look alike but we have similar mannerisms and opinions. We get on really well. However, I think we (Mr 23 and I) have some level of harmonism between us except his head is a lot longer than mine.

As for JT and I, I don't think I have harmonism with him but I have some sort of echoism. We don't look exactly like each other but there's this burning familiarity, its just the behaviour, something. I think the eyes as well. I was looking at this picture (below) the other day and couldn't get how similar my eyes were his when I was younger. I used to think that my eyes were very strange and droopy at the time, yet on him, I could die for them. How wierd, I feel a bit perverted. I also look like my mum so maybe its some (perverse) connection to my mum too, LOL!

I was also thinking in relation to another post there was talk about what was thought lovable by a person (aspects to person's venus) and what is beddable (aspects to mars). JT has mars in his 1st house/aries that is conj with eros, so maybe he finds people like himself somehow attractive?
