The Picture Board!

[Arian Maverick]

I created this new thread to serve as an extension to the Rising Signs and Physical Characteristics Board, where we can post pictures of certain physical characteristics we possess and explore the possible astrological influences upon them.

So far, both 23 and I have posted a picture of our eyes on this board...I will upload my own picture here in order to begin discussion, but I do not feel comfortable doing this for someone else without their permission. Feel free to add to the growing collection!

My Eyes:

Jeez, WAY too early in the morning for me to be taking pics of my eyes! LOL. Plus it's that time of the month so I'm a little of a water-retaining side - heh, we Piscean are great at retaining water (another physical characterstic ). Maybe later.

 

[Summery Joy]

Cool idea, Beth. Although I don't have a picture of me on this computer. I'll try to add one later. A few on my pictures could be found at the link in my signature.

By the way, I think that if you post a pic of your whole face I'd be able to tell if your ASC is in Aries or Pisces.

That's kind of a big step for me...do you think you could tell if I posted a baby picture or PM'd it to you?

[Summery Joy]

AM, PM it to me if you like. I promise I'll delete it afterwards.

 

[sam]

Beth, you have beautiful eyes.

 

[Arian Maverick]

EDIT: I just sent you a more recent picture of myself, sorehearted

Beth, you have beautiful eyes.

Thank you! I didn't post the picture just to get compliments, though...and keep in mind these were my eyes when I was six year old. I suppose they don't really change much, though

Arian Mav - in relation to my eyes, yes I am an Aquarian. I was reading somwhere Aquarians have dreamy eyes. I have been told that I have dreamy eyes many times but I think maybe having neptune trine my asc might have an effect on the appearance of my eyes. Otherwise, I have very expressive eyes and my moods can be easily read from them. I have very happy eyes when I am happy but I can give incredibly nasty looks and express fury when I want to (asc opp pluto and moon?). I have been told that when I cry, I of course look upset but when I stop, they clear up very quickly. And here is another Aquarian's eyes, who was known to be magnetic:

I remember seeing pictures of him as a kid and being rather petrified.

 

[Summery Joy]

Who's that? When you first look at his pic, he's scary!

 

[Lunar Pisces]

Rasputin - i didn't know he was an Aqua. He does look like one though.

I always thought dreamy, spacey eyes were more associated with Neptune and Pisces, which makes a lot of sense.

 

[EvilPixyScorp]

heres my mug..going through a "phase" at the taking lol..anyway, Okay...I did think I had a Sag. ASC...But recently changed it to Cap after talking to Maverick.
I'm the shortest of my family, they are all 5'8+..Saturn shrunk me... Capricorn rising= greyish, "older" eyes, deeper set eyes than sister.
Mars conj. ASC= scar on face, Check!

Rasputin was a notorious monk in Russia and the parmour of Tsarina Alexandra.

I remember reading in Encyclopaedia Britannica that his birthdate was 22 Jan. Whether this is old or new style calendar, I don't know. But as far as I am concerned, he definitely has Aqu traits and must have something in Aqu - famous for corrupting and charming people. While the spirituality and monkness must be pisces or a powerful neptune which probably has been afflicted in his case.

LunarPiscean - that's what I thought too and it still might hold ground. A read a few websites a few hours ago and most comment on the dreaminess of Aqu eyes, eyes that don't quite fit a face, that seem a bit remote but not necessarily absent as well.

For example from http://www.astrologyguidance.com/sunsigns/aquarius.shtml

As it is natural for them to live on a slightly higher plane, Aquarians will tend to reflect this in their physical appearance by projecting a look of remoteness. This is especially evidenced in the eyes, which will often be dreamy or other-worldly in appearance. The eyes, in fact, may convey the peculiar Aquarian trademark of appearing to not belong to the native or of somehow seeming to not go along with the rest of the features. Consider how the crystal-clear blue eyes of Aquarian Paul Newman stand out strikingly from the rest of his features. His faraway eyes, full of an undefinable compassion, have long been his trademark, but would one expect them to go along with his otherwise rugged features and impulsive manner? Even if their appearance, behavior or mannerisms do not always show it, Aquarians' eyes will never fail to convey their true humanitarian natures.

but Pisces (from same site):

The eyes similarly, may appear to bulge with somewhat of a sleepy or dreamy expression, and in them you can get the distinct impression of wisdom, mystery or spiritual depth. For this reason, Pisces' eyes are perhaps the most beautiful in all the zodiac.

EvilPixyScorp - your eye shape is defintely scorpio to me...

What sign influence would lend to longer than average fingers & toes?
Or "monkey toed" people who pick up stuff off the floor with their feet instead of bothering to bend down? lol

 

[Arian Maverick]

What sign influence would lend to longer than average fingers & toes?

I'm curious about this as well, since I've possessed long, thin "piano fingers" since I was an infant...yet my natal chart is almost exclusively Arian in all of its main influences, and I've never heard of this being a typical characteristic of the sign :?

[Summery Joy]

Rasputine? Oh wow. I hadn't seen a picture of him before. He looks.. wow!

But I sort of figured that with all the corruption he caused that he must have had some strong Scorpio/Capricorn placements. People with these placements usually have a great effect on the people around them.


About the whole spacey eyes issue. Pisces eyes are dreamy giving you the impression that they're not there with you while Aquarius eyes are distant giving you the impression that you only have a part of their attention. Both are spacey though

 

[Amazon1963]

8 Degrees Sag rising, Gemini Sun, Pisces Moon. Hazel eyes, auburn hair, fair skinned w/ some freckles. I think I 'fit' some of the description of a Sag rising and a lot of Gemini physical characteristics as well. I am 5'8" and athletic. Individual sports interest me more than team sports, ie; marathons, diving, hiking and so on. The Pisces physical influence escapes me though. Although, the 'emotional' aspects of having a Pisces moon is certainly in place.

birth data: June 14, 1963 @ 6:25 pm, EST in Augusta, Georgia, USA

[Lunar Pisces]

Your birthday's a day before mine....although I'm 8 years younger than you. I'm a Pisces moon too (Virgo rising - I'm defintiely not 5' 8" LOL!).

You look a bit like my best pal, who's a Sag rising, and Gem-Can cusper/Scorp moon. I'm surprisesdyou don't have any Cancer planets, giving given your description of yourself. My pal's not athletic - definitely more of a Cancer homebody with a strong dislike for physical exertion, but she's a very fair-skinned redhead, with grey eyes and tall (6'). Very Cancerian in that way - the "Nicole Kidman" thing (Gem with Cancer rising). Her Gemiminess comes out more in her love of books, words and schmoozing.

Both of you have a same basic face shape, but she has more Cancerian eyes - yours are defintiely more Saggy eyes there.

ArianMav - long fingers are commonly a trait of Cancer-Cap axis, bit sometimes associated with Aqua. From my experience:

- Can/Cap influences lends to very graceful, elongated hands,feet, toes and fingers that are attractive or refined in appearence. Examples: Nicole Kidman (Cancer rising) or Jim Carrey (Cap Sun).

- Aqua influence lends to hands, toes, arms, and longs that seem "stretched" or abnormally long or thin, disproportionate to rest of the body, "knobby," or in someway odd-looking, perhaps even deformed. Examples: John Frusciante (Aqua moon - very disproportioned arms and hands. Makes for a good guitarist, I suppose) and Paris Hilton (Aqua Sun - and I don't mean to be mean, but she has pretty freaky looking ankles and hands.)

23 - there seems a bit of fuzziness here. But to me "remoteness" which I'd associate with Aqua, isn't the same as "spacey" which I associate with Pisces. However, I'm sure others may disagree.

As for Rasputin's birthdate, it seems widely disputed. I googled it an came up with anythign from 1864 to 1872, from Jan 10 to June 17! So I suppose we just don't know. He was born in a small village in Siberia in abject poverty - I doubt they managed to keep an accurate record of his birth. Add to this the man was notorious for lying about himself to increase his mysique. Other mystical frauds have lied about their birthdate to give themselves a more astrologically impressive chart - I wouldn't put it past Rasputin to have done the same.

Lunar Pisces,

you are right about Rasputin's birthdate. Some time ago I got one his most recent biographies (2004 or so) written by a russian historian using newly found archival material. I have read that there were different opinions about his birth-date, which was not taken by anyone. His parents were illiterate, and he was-semiliterate and had a very uncertain, childlike handwriting.

Height, long fingers, etc. = air signs.

I'm 5'9, have long legs and arms, long fingers (typical and good for a musician). I have lots of air on my chart. 8)
