@PixieJane• I think there's something that at a certain point scares me. It's the unknown or what I perceive as unknown. Sometimes the creeps it gives me is kind of funny, and sometimes not so much you see • When I edit or delete something, it's because I made a mistake . I think I'm a bit distant(?) • I get bored with wall-texts, they remind me of people that have judgement based in present time only. Or that live constantly remembering past experiences. • I like .gif pics lol Because I like them • I think it's easier for 2 or more people to comprehend each other when reading charts. But I also think it is extremely bizarre when 'x' person believes he/she "knows" another one, but he/she can't read natal charts. • I really don't understand, because it's like expecting a chess player to perform a slam dunk at the NBA Thanks for sharing your own perspective Ms Pixie. That's actually very nice Anything else you want to know about me, perhaps(?) IP: Logged |

So does this plutonian Gemini On topic, I don't think that there's any signs who cares less than others. I just think that, being vastly different, they express their care differently and it doesn't always settle well with different people. For example, the care a heavy air person would provide may fit, say, a fire or another airy type, but would pass as very cold and uncaring to the more sensitive water person. But it doesn't mean they care less! just that they express it differently, the way THEY would like to be cared for and it simply doesn't always sit well with everyone around.

It depends person to person and what care you're looking for.If you're struggling, the delightful Libra will drop you like a hot potato. Libra don't do struggle. The mean, cold, icy Capricorn will most likely reach out. First, there may be a few ground rules, of course. So, it totally depends on the care you're seek. IP: Logged |

I've decided to look up a few famous people of each sign who were known to show caring (to the point that they took pain or risk), I'm trying for at least 3, though in an age where people are more famous for wealth and acting it's going to be difficult to find the heroes of the group that is mostly unsung. In some cases I may add more info as it's not as well known.Linda Goodman gives much better examples rather than the shallow ones that are adored in our world today. (I don't mean that as a dig against the famous, though one can consider it a chiding of our values as a society.) Therefore this is difficult for me using the internet and I know I'd have better and more examples if I could just find my LG book! Aries Émile Zola Note: internet not cooperating, try to find relevant info and the sites just won't connect. I so wish I knew where my LG book is! Seems unless they're so famous for their activism that they're taught in high school history (meaning the most famous) then there's hardly anything found unless they're also a celebrity for other reasons! And with that said... Maria Bello (for her efforts to help those suffering in Darfur) Doris Day And honorable mention to Jane Goodall! Taurus Florence Nightingale Robert Owen Sophie Scholl Honorable mention (Taurus) Tim McGraw for going sober for his wife and as an example to his kids (as opposed to being a "do as I say, not as I do" father). Looks like Sukhdev Thapar may qualify but I don't know enough. Gemini Elisabeth Omilami Betty Williams Bertha von Suttner Honorable mention to Cornel West Cancer Princess Di (I'm going by the official story, not Illuminati conspiracy theories) Selena Gomez Malala Yousafzai x At this point I'm frustrated with the internet. About all astrology has to say on this (without getting obscure) is how to find our soul mates, get rich, and other self-serving desires rather than how we can be excellent to each other (can't say I'm surprised but this is stark). And apparently we as a people don't care about who is nice but who is famous, wealthy, involved in entertainment (including sports), and all the other high school stuff. Why do we even pretend otherwise? Damn, I wish I could find my LG book. x Leo Roger Federer Amelia Boynton Robinson Martin Sheen (I must admit I'm settling for this guy as I'm sick of combing through the internet of a shallow society) Honorable mention to Ray Bradbury Virgo
Mother Theresa You know, I have to admit defeat. I'm shocked. (I'm also shocked that Charlie Sheen is a Virgo!) I'm sure if I had LG book with me I could fill this in easily! Please, someone else take it up for me! That aside, I will give honorable mention to Lance Armstrong for political initiatives and John Locke for what I hope are obvious reasons. Libra:
Gandhi Eleanor Roosevelt (I'm thinking of this Mary Church Terrell And honorary mention to Neil deGrasse Tyson for his brilliance and seeing value in all people and also calmly and respectfully telling Dawkins (at a public group in which they were on the same side) that he was being counterproductive in his caustic attitude. And another to Jimmy Carter...I think he was shockingly naive at an older age but I do think he genuinely meant well and was unusually honorable for a politician. Scorpio Rosalie Edge Mahalia Jackson Abigail Adams (gotta love the woman who not only tried educating the children of slaves and such but also told Patrick Henry that he was a hypocrite for giving his Liberty or Death speech while refusing to free his own slaves, but then I'd expect nothing less of an evolved Scorpio). Sag Chelsea Manning (I realize he's controversial but the detractors I know recognize that he meant well even if they think he's an idiot and a traitor) Clelia Mosher Noam Chomsky. I admit to having reservations about this guy but most like him. I got so frustrated going through actors and such that make one matter in this society that I looked for my Linda Goodman book again, but still couldn't find it. ![](http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/frown.gif) Cappie Martin Luther King Jr. Helena Rubinstein (for her philanthropy for education and children's health organizations) Alice Paul I hope this list makes everyone feel better. Though one thing I've learned is EVERY sign has a bunch of entertainers and athletes!

Oh Jesus, my Libra sun LOVES good debate! I've quite enjoyed this thread!But you know what...I'm gonna stick up for us Air signs, especially Gemini's and Aquarius! Yes we appear aloof, and that is because we are always drifting off with abstract idea's and thoughts. We deal with issues from an intellectual viewpoint rather then an emotional one. But us Air signs are mostly deeply spiritual people, always finding the higher meaning or reading between the lines. My Dad is Aquarius, the most caring man I've ever known. He may not have been all loud and sappy but he saw people for their goodness and gave them the attention they deserved. He did not judge anyone, he did not gossip and if someone needed help he was the first to lend a hand. This one time we got stopped behind a massive car crash on the highway, one car had the whole front smashed in and was smoking heavily. NO ONE went to get the woman out who was stuck, my Dad didnt hesitate and ran straight in to turn the ignition off, check if there was oil on the ground and finally to start getting the lady out as the ambulance arrived. So...I'd say Aquarius is a probably the most caring sign I've seen so far, even if its not the most expected. IP: Logged |

I have Taurus Moon and ASC in Gemini, and if I didn't have my triple Aries planets I probably wouldn't emotionally care or put any emotional effort into other people. Earth and air have the ability (ability! Meaning 'option') to dissolve themselves of blame due to natural analytic / objective natures.IP: Logged |

That's very true. Also, though, never picked up on this before but these signs also seem to be fearful of blame to an intense degree because they feel guilt deeply. At least, thinking of earth signs I'm close to, and myself, I think we feel bad if our actions affect someone badly so work hard to either avoid the situation or evade the sense of being to blame. Fire signs might be less analytic but also don't seem to get swamped so much by the possibility of causing harm. IP: Logged |

Thanks for adding to the Virgo. I was getting brain fried there, and frustrated. The main thing is they all care, but they tend to show it in different ways. There's no real way to quantify it but if there were then I expect Pisces would care more about the world than Scorpio and Cap...but I say that because Pisces is more likely to express such sentiments whereas Scorpio is more secretive and Cap more Saturnine who generally doesn't see a point about rending their garments as that doesn't change anything, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they care less. And I've known Scorpio and Cappies who decided to make a different to the world (at least a segment of it) beyond their immediate circle of friends and family, and they were typically effective about it, probably because they know how the real world works (as opposed to expecting the rest of the world to be idealists, a mistake all too many idealists make) and once resolved they'll meet it head on. 'Course even then you won't see them rend their garments much and they'll probably expect those helped to put out some effort themselves (unless they're little children) or "otherwise you're gone because we can only help so many and others out there are willing to actually make an effort so we won't waste our time on you." Which makes sense to me. 'Course the Pisces is still more likely to share their pizza and compassionate understanding with a stranger and that can sometimes have an unexpected ripple effect (and such kindness without asking for anything in return can spark a lost flame in one's heart to do better for one's self and others and to believe that there's good in the world again) that causes a lot of good that some organization run from a desk that has people to pay and rules to follow to cover their own collective butts and otherwise not get burned can manage. ![](http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/wink.gif) Sorry, I'm rambling, it's early, I haven't had breakfast, and I shouldn't...what was the word?

We could just not be so sensitive to negative stereotyping. Realize that for example I may seem uncaring to one cancer and not another. We could understand that not everything on LL needs to be taken literally. Rather than this thread being a technical exercise in which we scientifically dissect each sign, think of it as an open door to individual expression of how different people feel about the way other signs care, or don't care. We all have different needs and I'm thankful for that. It's a shame that we can't just express ourselves without every word having to be something positive. Is this some kind of mental health workshop or what? "Ok Rhonda. It's your turn. Say something nice that you like about Billy." IP: Logged |

I'm a Gemini and I show that I care by solving your problems. I will sit for hours and listen to someone talk about their situation, but I will ask questions and put together a plan to solve the problem. If someone just wants a shoulder to cry on while their problem remains unsolved, then I am the wrong person to go to. The least caring person I've ever met was a Sag sun with a Cancer moon. Very psychotic and I saw some sociopathic tendencies. Interestingly enough, the most caring person I ever met was a Libra Sun….can't remember the moon sign. IP: Logged |

Or we could instead seek a greater understanding by comparing/contrasting types of caring to get a more nuanced understanding of how all the signs care. I know this is a radical concept for some, but some of us really do want a greater understanding rather than playing Oprah. (Granted, I don't like when some signs are given flack, but not because "it's mean" but rather because it's inaccurate when speaking generally--all signs have individuals who care and those who don't.) Even the OP didn't understand her own question (as I asked for a more specific one and the OP was unable to articulate it). If I was going to ask the question on who was the most to least caring then that would have to be defined as there are different ways to care and people care about different things, so as a general "who is the most to least caring" the question is unanswerable. Failing at that then I'd have to examine how all the signs care to compare/contrast, and what I did above was a start on that. Eventually I'd have to move on to moon signs and such as well, but hey, it's a step in the right direction. So much better than gross generalizations made just because you happened to have a mother or someone from work who had that pattern and basing that on "how much the signs care." You have your way and I'm sure you'll stand by it, just as I have my way that I'll stand by as well.

You missed my point entirely. Again with the technical, literal, and quite serious analysis. Lighten up! Sometimes it's ok to let others express themselves however they wish without taking it so seriously or as they mean to represent the thoughts of many. If they have had bad experiences with Leo for example and express how Leos are uncaring then it would be quite intelligent of us to understand that they are expressing their very personal opinion, and nothing more. So again, you completely missed the entire point and insist to dissect this whole thing as if your searching for a cure to some disease. Some of us are just trying to "have a conversation with friends". Many of you are just flat out too serious. This is a forum for discussion and sharing of THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS, not a classroom. (Though we do learn a lot and sometimes it's that kind of conversation. It's not the only thing we do here and not EVERY thread needs to be so serious) IP: Logged |

And I'm not welcome to your "discussion with friends"? Fine, you're not welcome to my "discussion with those who want to explore it from a technical point of view to gain a better understanding." I'm certainly not stopping you from doing it your way, but you sure seem to want me to stop doing it mine. And that's not going to happen, even if it makes you uncomfortable. And btw, I'm not searching for a "cure for the disease," I'm searching for a greater understanding of astrology, humanity, and the whole bit. I gave up on finding a "cure" for anything on a mass scale many years ago. But for people like me there's pleasure in the learning (as opposed to commiserating, though I can do that as well from time to time), and I like sharing with others who can understand that pleasure.
