For one thing, does anyone like the minimalist style of visual art or music? I heard someone speculate that minimalism is ruled by Saturn.


Is it Saturnian or Saturninian? I always think Saturninian because of saturnine...

Haha, Saturninian isn't going to catch on with me.

Saturnine or Saturnian for me.

I'd say austerity was Saturnian. Aesthetics is probably a Venus function, though? Yours is in Capricorn...

Actually I wanted to cobble together an art test, to see what kind of art people with different astrology enjoy, you just reminded me.

I like the sig on your profile page, there's some real saturn stuff in it. One of my favourite Bowie songs, and I dig the Kafka reference.

It's not Saturnine-ian. It's Saturninnian, but with one less N. Saturnininian. I admit that your (presumable) Saturninian as Saturnine-ian makes more sense.

I think aesethics is a Venus function for sure. I call it the many levels of being, or something like that. I haven't decided on the name. You can be a celebrity, or an artist who paints celebrities, or an interviewer who interviews an artist who paints celebrities.

Thank you about my signature. You should also thank Bowie, who should also in turn thank Kafka. :P

While we're at thanking, the whole world should thank us for Saturday (day of Saturn,) because apparently Thursday (day of Jupiter) is the worst day for people but Saturday is the best :P

I didn't even know what you guys meant by minimalist till now. I listen to mainstream rock and metal (mainly thrash, power and prog). Been into Pink Floyd, Dream Theater, and Yes recently.

minimalism music

Is the art test up yet? I'll help! I saw someone who was wanting to do a painting for every Zodiac sign, and it was cool, but that thread was short-lived and didn't get too much info out of people.

No Rebel, not yet. I've begun collecting pictures. I guess I'm looking for a range of different styles. Maybe you could help by collecting lots of different pictures in different art styles. I'm also wondering how to present it. I figure throwing a bunch of pics on a page and asking people to rate them out of 10 or so. And post their charts so we can see if there's any correlations.

I know a decent amount about art. I can also do art a decent amount. I think all of the pictures I've used in avatar/signature on here were ones I made (or at least edited significantly.) (One point for me living life rather than thinking about it!)

I should wait until I have a list to post, right? Oops...

I was thinking of using a selection of famous artworks in different styles.

It would be cool if we could sort or even create art classifiable by signs or certain configurations of planets.

Speaking of art and the context of this group, I wonder what influenced Goya to paint this?

I'd say that being grumpy was a Saturnian common interest

Do you like Christmas gang? Is 'bah humbug' a Saturnian thing to say? Is Santa actually jovial Jupiter in human guise?

It's all a bit too frivolous and unfrugal for my liking.
