Can I just point out that you are not just your Sun sign - you have nine other planets and two major points to consider. Basing your judgement of tropical astrology solely on superficial, cookbook interpretations of Sun positions is like deciding a cake is delicious because the icing is a nice colour.
Can I also point out that astrology uses geocentric positions of the planets because we are all born and live on the Earth, not the Sun.
I was typing up this same thing just now. Except much more wordy, haha.
The thing about sidereal astrology that i don't understand is that the constellations aren't even all 30 degrees wide. So why are sidereal signs 30 degrees wide? It just seems like sidereal is hailed as being THE accurate picture of the sky and... it's not.
Regarding my own sidereal chart, if you ditch the signs, then i'm almost as Plutonian and Saturnian in my sidereal chart as i am in my tropical chart. After all, all the aspects are the same, and all the planets are still in the same houses. The signs are just different- and i don't agree with where they are!
I saw someone mention how some astrologers don't use the signs as much in sidereal, what was that about?
EDIT:
Also an interesting article on House systems that posits Topocentric as the most logical system, well worth a read. I think you'd enjoy this one, Uranian;

And thanks for posting this, Zonark. I use topocentric (or prefer it) because i like how it doesn't fall apart at the poles, and what little i could find about it made sense, but i could never find much.
