Is there any difference between your core personality and how you are when you are alone, at home, etc?

I think so because I'm a Pisces Moon and when I'm by myself in my room I'm just in my own world and my imagination. I listen to music and watch tv .

What's your core personality like? How you are here? On the internet?

hmm .... well lets just say I can sit and talk online and say anything I want to behind a keypad. My sun sign is Virgo . I'm more introverted and don't get along with peers but I have always seemed to befriend older adult women espically in the work place that are around my Mom's and grandma's age. I don't talk to the opposite gender because I'm shy and scared of rejection and I assume I'm not their type anyway.

I don't know, sounds like your inner world and core persona is the same. Maybe i'm overlooking something. Or maybe i'm just not understanding something.


Always thought the Sun represents your natural persona. While the ascendant was about how you represent yourself to others or how others may see you. And the moon is about your inner needs and desires. But what do i know? It's all fun n games either way.

Personally I believe in Astrology and Numerology . I have found revelations about myself . Of course many find it not to be accurate or just for entertainment only Also
In addition to overlooking the importance of the entire chart, people also forget that one's environment and upbringing probably has more impact on our personality than placements/signs ever could.

Your Ascendant (Rising Sign) reveals the ways in which you present yourself to others, as well as the ways in which you immediately respond to the world around you.

How you present yourself is more ego than actual personality. It could also be attitude. This is why people should read their chart. Lots of great insights. How you see/feel about yourself (sun/moon) is very very rarely how other ppl see you (rising)

The rising sign is the sign that all your other signs are "filtered" thru for a lack of a better word. It...influences all your other placements. So this is why when folks say "oh I'm nothing like a gemini" it's likely because of their rising sign. Which will influence all your other signs.

That's the more logical approach to it. I agree.
