Just saw your edit on Aries, what does 'boil' mean? Doug Weller ( talk) 20:15, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
Hello, here are my written sources for my Taurean description: The body type is usually robust or can be lanky which is what Linda Goodman says in her famoue book "Sun Signs"; whereas the Grecian nose and Rubenesque body for females comes from Talila Stan, a brilliant Israeli astrologer whose book is entitled " Cast Your Own Horoscope". Now for the part about the swan neck-well those are my words taken from another physical description of Taurean women which I got from Alan Oken's "Complete Astrology" in which he states that the women are "beautifully proportioned with wide shoulders revealing a well-formed, arched neck. They are extremely graceful in their slow movements and exude airs of deep sensuality, amazing drawing powers, and tremendous magnetism". Now doesn't that sound like an apt description for these famous Taurus women: Lucrezia Borgia, Anne Boleyn, Lady Hamilton,Catherine The Great,,the Grafin von Konisgmarck, Empress Eugenie of France,Eva Peron, Koo Stark,Italian singer Anna Oxa,models Linda Evangelista, Leaticia Casta,actresss Michelle Pfeiffer, Anne Parillaud, Uma Thurman, Penelope Cruz and the singer/actress Cher? All Taurean women. jeanne ( talk) 06:19, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

The date syntax is: {{Fact|any other arguments|date=September 2008}}, but if you leave the date off it will be added by a WP:BOT. (Note refers to The Moon (Tarot card).) Rich Farmbrough, 19:58 4 September 2008 (GMT).
Hi Jeanne, I removed the material because there is a policy on Wikipedia that asks that people don't make lists of people that are not famous for being associated with the list's topic (in this case being of a certain sign). For example the Aries celebrities are not famous for being Aries people, but for being musicians, artists and politicians. This is the policy I am talking about, you can read about it: WP:NOTDIR.
This kinda makes sense, because there are too many "celebrities" in the world, and one person's famous guy is not famous in the eye of another. This means that a list of famous people of a certain sign may be never-ending. You can soon see the addition of thousands and thousands of people that you and me would not even consider famous or even interesting. This will easily overload the article with trivial information, instead of focussing on the more interesting discussion of the actual sign and its natives :-)
This issue has also been discussed on Gemini's talk page and on Aries' talk page. -- Nathanael Bar-Aur L. ( talk) 03:39, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
I actually tried to add a list like that on the hebrew Wikipedia but it caused a mess and was removed :-) -- Nathanael Bar-Aur L. ( talk) 05:45, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
I'm not sure I'm the best source for information about it. I dislike religion in any capacity as I consider it interfering with the pure spirituality I seek and believe in. I did undertake some Kabbalah courses and found that Astrology is often used in Jewish mysticism, even though conventional Judaism has a rather negative opinion of it. The approach to Astrology, as well as to the more controversial Tarot cards, really differs from Rabbi to Rabbi, so it depends on the dogma of the day -- Nathanael Bar-Aur L. ( talk) 03:54, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
It's wonderful that your priest has an open mind like that. I actually prefer Christianity to Judaism, just because I am a great believer in the holiness of self-sacrifice. The only thing I took from Judaism was "love thy neighbour as thyself", although it is seldom practised here, and I guess is also very close to the philosophy of Christianity. On the other hand I'm not sure the religious labeling helps bring humanity together. -- Nathanael Bar-Aur L. ( talk) 16:29, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
There are still fundamental differences. Christianity is more Neptunian in nature, Judaism is Venusian at best, seeking balance of giving and getting (also symbolised by the star of david). To the best of my knowledge there are no significant martyrs in Judaism, therefore there are no role models and no inspiration for people to get beyond their little selves. I see way too much hatred here, and it is often endorsed by the local religious figures. Did you see Israel's chart? Pretty harsh stuff -- Nathanael Bar-Aur L. ( talk) 04:39, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
Judaism also has Saturnian qualities, but scarcely any Neptunian ones, and I consider Neptune (on its positive side) to be the ultimate bridge to God. The Talmud is actually a collection of material by Jewish wise men, and not part of the Old Testament, and yeah these people are revered in Judaism :-) -- Nathanael Bar-Aur L.

Perhaps the Holocaust itself was, in a way, but never the people. -- Nathanael Bar-Aur L. ( talk) 04:37, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
I am not proficient in religions and especially in the forms of Christianity, although I would say of Islam that it may well be somewhat Neptunian, but in a more Plutonian fashion. The word "Islam" means "submission" (to God) which is a rather Neptunian thing, however its extreme inclinations, obsessiveness and sentimental-ruinous overreaction is also Plutonian. -- Nathanael Bar-Aur L.

Hi Nathanael. A lot of your edits, if not all, seem to involve edit warring on sources. Can you explain this? I would like to remind you of Wikipedia:Edit war, which applies, as well as Wikipedia:3RR, which applies to everything but "simple vandalism", poor sourcing not included. Magog the Ogre ( talk) 13:12, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
Nathanael, I am sure you must be aware of Crowley's treatise 'The Book of Thoth' however it might benefit from a re-read regarding the alchemical implications of The Magus, Art, The Star, etc. Crowley devoted quite some thought to certain major arcana cards from an alchemical perspective in his work. The Magician of Rider-Waite therefore became more of a divine juggler with Lady Frieda Harris' pictograms and symbols reflecting Crowley's insights. True - one could pour through copies of 'Equinox' ad infinitum but I think the aforementioned treatise might help. Just a thought, en passant. Ernstblumberg ( talk) 12:33, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
some months ago(better said in 2008) a lot of information was available about astrological signs. as i observed the main contributor were you. there were maid a lot of vandalisms around there , people which don´t agree with astrology , and bla bla bla. Isn´t it supposed that wikipedia is a free encyclopedia were you can write anykind of information , while it has a source and it´s somesort reliable?(a lot of people have written books about astrology)
anyway , what i would like to say is : i somesort apreciate your works and currently i´m browsing the history of all those pages ,just to rescue that information.
