Could we set up a database
of sorts, in our forum? Voluntary only.

Since many of us follow the planets (even if we don't understand them)

There are some threads in archives with charts. I'm wondering if we can't keep it current.
There is no obligation on the behalf of astrologers who are earning livings, etc. But some of ya'll make it a hobby.

There is such a wonderful give and take in this forum, that should not be an issue.

What if.. we got a database thread of at least three, sun, moon, rising. And of course allowed other things to be part of it.

Is that even possible on a forum such as this?

Often, pretty much always, when I'm talking to someone I like to know at least sun sign.
Is that so gauche? .. When I was a hippie / vs old hippie, it became tawdry to ask for signs.
But it has prevailed, at least for me. Everyone likes to know more about themselves. No matter the source.

We could keep a thread kicked. I need more ideas on this if anyone else is interested.

1. I like the idea in theory, votes. I wonder how difficult it will be to keep...
it in a usable format.

If we could find the right way to do it so that it remains useful, I think that it would add to the experience of visiting this forum.

:)

2. Actually; a corner of the research forum would be ideal for this.
However; I don't know that it would go over since I can hear in my head the "Well; if we let one group have a corner then ALL of them will want one!" argument.
Hmmmmmmmm.

3. uh huh...
I don't imagine the research forum would be the right space.

Let's let this gel a bit.

But I'm still dreaming of a thread (?) that gives us each other's three signs.

My brain is not big enough at the moment.
Thought it would be a nice idea. I hate to admit that anyone I'm thinking of getting involved with in any way, I want to know .. what sign is your ruler.

Right now I'm under the house of Earl. The cat, who lives somewhere else. I guess. Just heard his bell and let him in to eat. I surrender.

Back on topic. Good minds, or when mine is better, can we do this?

Oh wait. I'll make a poll :D

4. Well, I could use some help with one thing you mentioned.
I have sun in Leo, Moon in Sagittarius, and rising sign of Aries. That's a great deal of fire, don't you think?

And whatever database you choose, I would love to know the son, moon, and rising signs of individual members. It would help me know them better. Maybe that's what you meant, though.

7. What about asking Skinner to make such a thread into a 'sticky'?
So it stays at the top of our little forum, as a reference thread?

:shrug:
