The Geeks of the Zodiac

Disclaimer: with astrology, it is possible to decipher our behaviour or to get a glimpse of the future. This is a theory which cannot be systematically tested. On the other hand, one may wish to follow an easier path, which puts into practice the principles listed in astrology textbooks. In a way, this is precisely the type of practical exercises that we suggest in this Lifestyle column.

We recommend that you follow our advice with both a light and observing mind. Beyond Geek, the aim is to understand how each of us behaves in various fields; thus, we can better define and fathom, by deduction, how we have developed our natal predispositions. In addition, why wouldn't we be able to guess the talent(s) which we could harness in the future, according to our astrological profile.

The following information is given for signs in their purest form. Depending on the case, it is advisable that you check your planetary dominant or the sign of your Ascendant, the position, quality and aspects of the significators of the area involved, and if applicable, the position of the planets associated with it. For instance, for family affairs, examine the 4th House and its ruler, as well the Moon; for romance, examine the 5th House and its ruler, as well as Venus, etc.

The large number of books we have read, and more particularly, the experience we have drawn from the study of thousands of charts, urge us to be cautious. However, we thought that it may be interesting to provide a few concrete indications, which will turn out to be accurate, quite often.

You can also read dozens additional lifestyle articles on different topics.

In your view, electronic equipment has the advantage of saving time. This idea alone sounds in a magical manner to you, you who are always rushing. You are delighted by the possibility to respond to your interlocutors by e-mail straight away, and to fulfil boring formalities just typing on your keyboard. Nevertheless, make sure you reread what you write, and do not hit the "send" button too quickly. Many Aries have already regretted their haste! Ditto for tweets, a mode of communication you enjoy because it enables you to catch people off guard with your little digs and your cutting remarks. In general, your weak point, a slightly pleasant narcissism, also finds good ways to express itself on the Internet: Facebook, mainly, helps you shine amid a wide network of acquaintances. Moreover, since you are fond of progress, you readily yield to the latest gadget, the most powerful, the lightest, and the most ergonomic ones. Well, a sudden impulse!

Which Geek corresponds to Taurus, Taurus rising, Venus dominant, or strong 2nd House

Reluctant to changes, you had difficulty accepting smartphones, and you prefer to keep your old, even out of date, device because you are very familiar with it. In real life also, you stick to old objects, but if you really have to, you choose the same brand or the same digital environment. Your pragmatism prompts you to acknowledge that electronic items are handy. They provide a better quality of life when used appropriately. It is obvious that people with the Sun in Taurus seldom have the profile of a pathological geek, for Taurus needs tangible reality. You know instinctively how to achieve balance and how to handle everything reasonably. Your habit is to resort to favourites, especially for your recipes, and links to cultural or e-commerce websites. You could also run a blog, since you are generous and sharing. You excel at finding good and aesthetic bargains.

How did we live before the Web 2.0 era, or worse, without the Internet? Today, how long can you resist without a wi-fi connection? It is true that you are among the geeks, no use denying it.

In addition, as your whim takes you, you turn your tablet into a mobile TV set or into a mixing desk to act as a DJ. You love to try everything: Facetime calls, new promising social networks, even though you are irresistibly addicted to the most powerful and the most important of all: Facebook. You are also a formidable twitter, always more rapid that anyone, and you overwhelm your colleagues and your friends with news links. There is no chance that you curse the omnipresence of technology. You are clever enough to deal with everything simultaneously, doing ten things at the same time of course.

You do not hesitate to check on the Internet the variants of your chocolate fondant or of your granny recipes, which are listed manually, to be on the safe side. You are a bit wary of this digital and virtual world, and you pay special attention to the dangers Internet may represent for your children.

Micro technology is one of your sign’s fields of competence. This means that you are perfectly comfortable in this multiform and evolving environment.

On the downside, you are not driven by your emotions; so think that other people are not like you.

Since Mr and Mrs Scorpio never behave like other people, either you manage to live without a smartphone – even without a computer – or your hard disk is full of strange and hot stuff. You sometimes visit websites or forums meant for highly informed or specialised visitors, whether they are about mysteries, volcanoes, or psychoanalysis. The choice is yours!

Which Geek corresponds to Capricorn, Capricorn rising, Saturn dominant, or strong 10th House

Whenever you think of technology, you cannot help it, you immediately associate it with the world of work. You probably need to know that you can constantly control your professional diary, organise conferences via a webcam, and set your appointments with Doodle (a brilliant invention to coordinate timetables). Otherwise, your favourite social network is LinkedIn, because you can keep abreast of anything related to your trade. This is where you develop your network, and without admitting it, the purpose of your posts is to achieve your ambitions. In any case, you certainly never disclose your private life on Facebook, a practice that you find almost disgusting.

Do not live connected 24 hours a day!

Presently, you are focusing on the future, and you are prepared to try out the new electronic means of payment, or a Smartwatch, or, why not, to have a chip implanted under your skin so as to make life simpler for you (actually, to test it, but hush!). However, you do not mind an extra paradox, and you may consider undertaking a digital detox treatment for a week or a month.
