What do you think about astrology and the zodiac and things? Do you know what your signs are? :o

And also... um. If you had to transform into a plant or animal, what would you want to be?

"I'm a Leo, I think. Eh, it's never meant much to me, one way or the other.

A wolf. I'm quite fond of being one. Transforming into anything other than that would be rather unsettling."

[handle_gently]

Ah! Are you a werewolf?

[bigbadfenrir]

Fenrir nods, and grins. "Last time I checked, yes."

[handle_gently]

How interesting! I've only met one other werewolf before. It's very nice to make your acquaintance; my name is Hanatarou. *bow* ^^

"I have no interest in astrology. I was born under the Libra sign -- the balanced scales. A pleasant enough one, I suppose, being associated with justice."

"I am not sure. Perhaps a horse. Or a bird; it would be nice to still be able to be in the air."

[handle_gently]

I see! I'm Aries, which I think is a sheep.
Do you know what year you are? :o

That makes sense. Do you have a favourite kind of bird, or would it be the same to you whichever kind you were?

[acolytem]

"I was born in Anno Domini 1684." Guillame shrugs.

"Doves are nice, but anything other than a carrion-eater would be fine."

[handle_gently]

Oh :o
I'm not sure which animal that was. I don't know my year, either.

I think the predictions in those are so broad that if you're looking for those things to happen, their accuracy is open to interpretation. I'm a bit curious as to how viewing the patterns of far-off constellations as they looked like millions of years ago can determine what kind of day you're going to have.

Anyway, I believe I'm a Taurus.

Animal? ...A bird, maybe. For plant, a beech.

[handle_gently]

What about zodiac in general, not just horoscopes? Like saying 'people born in the year of the Rabbit are creative and forgiving'...

What is the Taurus? (Are western zodiac signs also animals?)

Nobody else has mentioned a plant yet. I guess most people would rather be an animal... ^^()

[azoth_heiress]

There may be some truth to them, but you could find the qualities you're looking for in anyone if you look hard enough. Or your family (or yourself) try to instill those qualities in you.

Taurus is the bull, around April to May. A lot of them are animals, but there's also ones like the archer, the water bearer, the twins...

Or they interpreted the question as being given a choice between the two - I just wanted to be thorough. In any case, I like how the beech looks.

[handle_gently]

Do you think there are really people who would look up what type of person their zodiac signs were meant to be and then try to become that way? :O ... Or parents who would try to get their children to act more like their sign?

Ah, I see! That one must come right after Aries then.

Are beeches the one with silvery bark, or is that birches?

[evil_god_monkey]

"Aquarius, I think. Or snake. I never paid much attention to the whole astrology thing."

"A dragon."

"Hi, Hanatarou."

[handle_gently]

Which one is Aquarius?
I never really did, either... it was sort of pointless for me to think about it since I don't know when I was born. :>()

What sort of dragon?

Hello. ^^

[evil_god_monkey]

"Um, the one between Capricorn and Pisces?" She shrugs.

"...A silver dragon."

[handle_gently]

... Oh.
Which ones are Capricorn and Pisces?

Like, a more snake-like dragon, or more like a lizard? Or different from both of them? :o

[handle_gently]

I didn't know mine until recently, either. I still don't know my year...
But since you know when you were born about, someone who knows about these kinds of things would be able to tell you! :o

You can already transform into a different animal, though.

[handle_gently]

Ah? But you know what part of the year it was, so isn't it less specific to know which year? :o

... Though I suppose it's the same with me, since I know my birthday but not the year, either.
