I have no idea what sign my therapist or pdoc are, but I'm an Aries -- and believe me, I am an aries. It's not only my sun sign, though: about three other planets are in there, too. And, typical Aries fashion, I'm very skeptical about it all.
That said, yep, I'm an Aries in therapy, because I'm an Aries everywhere. A little larger than life, most of the time, which is really frightening when you consider my physical size. At 5'9", I'm not exactly small and meek, so expanding beyond that emotionally is a little frightening. Then again, with my Anger Issues, when my emotions get stronger, I get quieter and more intense. (A lot of people have made the mistake of thinking that I'm not very upset because I'm not yelling. Advice: don't make that mistake...)
Funny thread, and interesting.
On the other hand, there was this guy out here in CA 20 years ago who did an experiment about astrology. He did a double blind test to see if astrology worked, and it came back negative. I was at a talk he gave to the Astronomical Society of Stockton years back, and while I thought some of his methodology was flawed, it was still very interesting. He also was involved when James Randi exposed Peter Popov as a fake (faith healer who had a guy in the back reading him info from index cards filled out at the door about all the people Popov was 'healing' so that he seemed to be getting info from Beyond.) So, like I say, skeptical.
