Anna (aries)

"I never liked the food at Burger King when I was a kid, but I loved to get the crown and wear it... and wear it at home." 

Aries like to be in charge like kings and queens of everything.  They enjoy being revered as the best.

Jason (virgo)

me: "But that doesn't make any sense."

Jason: "But those are the rules."

Virgos appreciate rules and often abide by them religiously.  

Jessica (sagittarius)

"My life needs to be more exciting and interesting. Must find an adventure."


Sagittarius people will always seek adventure and act impulsively.  An adrenaline rush or some kind of excitement is the perfect prescription for a bummed out man-beast. 

Hayley (scorpio) ...again

Me: I have a secret to tell you.
Hayley: Yessss!!!

Scorpios are known for being secretive.  They tend to collect secrets because others sense that a Scorpio will never tell.  The inner detective inside every Scorp loves to collect data.

Hayley (Scorpio)

In reference to her cat who just stays outside all the time:

"I wish he loved me and stayed home more.  He'll come in and get some food and then he just leaves again.  I got him to be a pet.  I wish he would be one."

Scorpios are never comfortable not knowing where their loved ones are and what they're doing at all times.

Myranda (gemini)

In reference to the topic of saving one's virginity for marriage:
"You gotta try that right out.  It's just like buying a Subaru."

Geminis are famous for their friendly spirit, open mind, and casual attitude with intimate topics.

Jim (leo) (my dad)

"They've been talking about using fuel-injection in race cars in the future.  I don't know how to work on cars like that and I don't feel like learning it.  If they move over to using fuel-injection, I'll probably quit."

Leo rarely drops out of a race, figurative or literal, except when he's certain he'll lose.  Leo is used to winning or at least placing in the top.

Jennifer (cancer)

"I always freak people out because I predict things before they happen."

Cancer is one of a handful of signs (pisces, scorpio, sometimes aquarius) that is known for having an extremely strong intuition and ability to pick on vibes.

Julia (capricorn)

"When people expect things for free, I'm like, What???"

Monique (cancer)

Me: Hello, Monique.  How are you?
Monique: Pretty good and you?


Monique is happy.


5 minutes later...


Me: Monique, are you mad?
Monique: Yeah.


silence....

Cancers are known for their mood swings.  It's best not to prod when you see that a cancer is down or angry.  Just give them their space.  They'll come back around on their own.

Regan (a little Leo girl)

Regan's Written Pool Game Rules, (word for word): "No being rood to the person that made up the game. No wining. No getting out of the pool when I don’t say so."


Leos love to compete, but for the act of competition.  While they love to win, they also like to see everyone win in some way.  Leos don't cheat.  They work to include everyone in the game and give credit where it's deserved.  They are best at leading.  They prefer to be in control. 

Karl (Leo)

"I make the rules.  This is my kingdom!"

Leo is known for having strong leadership skills.

My Grandma Jo Ann (sagittarius)

"Remember that work is necessary, but hard work can sometimes get too constant.  Be careful."

Sagittarius is known for having a fun-loving, adventurous, and spontaneous spirit.

Arika (virgo)

"I always pay in correct change without even thinking about it til after the transaction."


Virgo is known for perfectionism, being somewhat compulsive, and working naturally well with numbers.

JAK (pisces)

JAK: "Yeah the smoke hasn't been too bad lately."

me: "What? It's been really smoky all day... where have you been?!"

JAK: "Oh, I was sleeping."


Pisces is known for needing more sleep than other signs.  They're also likely to dream. 

The next set of treats:

Since astrological knowledge swirls around in my head at all times, and since I have a knack for remembering a person's sign, I often relate distinctive things people say to what their sign is.

As I hear these quotes, I'll post them and we'll see if you can make the connection.  Hopefully readers will begin to see the astrological experience that forms in my head each day.

The last sign I noted was capricorn, so I'll respectfully quote one of my capricorn coworkers, D.J.

"I hope I get a whole hour for my break.  I really want to go look at putters."
