Pat! You're an Aries like my late dad and my niece  ! Another fire sign - I am a Sagittarius, and Micky is a Leo, a match made in heaven  .

It is said that fire signs are very good together, and at least in our case it is very true  !

Wow, I never knew there were different systems!  Apparently (quick check of wikipedia) reveals we're talking about tropical astrology, as I would not be an Aries in the sidereal system.

Same here...I am a tropical Aries which makes me in actuality a Pisces (the tropical zodiac is actually about 24 degrees off [& getting worse annually])...sidereal astrology is based on the actual positions of the signs in the sky...tropical astrology is simply based on the equinoxes, which move over one drgree every 72 years...

Luckily, in the sidereal system my wife and I become two water signs (Pisces/Scorpio) instead of fire signs, so we can still stay happily married.

My star sign is Bibendum which I believe is a pub sign.

When I detuned my short wave radio to ask the stars, all they said was
"killthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthem
killthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthem
killthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthem
killthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthem
killthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthem
killthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthemkillthem"
I stopped listening after a while, had a nice cup of tea & pondered the single drop of blood on the ceiling.

I'm on the cusp of Leo and Capricorn. That makes me a Leprechaun.
