The last caller for the morning has supplied his first name and date of birth during the earlier music break. Is there something specific you want to discuss? She had asked. No, the call had been made on impulse and he is surprised to have gotten through. The cover version of Ringo Starr’s ‘It don’t come easy’ is in progress.

 

 

Keely: We’re talking with Rob Reid about astrology and stuff and we’ve got Kieran on the line, Goodday Kieran, how’s it going?

 

Kieran: Oh hi, I couldn’t decide on whether to talk about relationships or work, so just a general thing about my birthdate. I was born at seven in the morning if that’s any help.

 

Rob: Hmm-mmm.

 

Kieran: and ah … yeah, if there is any relief on the horizon for being a Virgo.

 

Keely: Oh you’re stuck with it! Ha ha ha!

 

Rob: But you have an aspect of Mars from the sign of Sagittarius. I’ve talked a bit about Sagittarius this morning.

 

Kieran: I can’t stand Sagittarius!

 

Rob: Can’t you?

 

Kieran: Yeah!

 

Rob: Yeah – it gives a bit more colour to – ah well it gives a variety to Virgo – I guess they can actually – on the surface there is a conflict between the two signs because Virgo’s more practical, it likes to get lost in the details of stuff and focus on the practical side of life, but Sagittarius is a more visionary sign, it tends to think big, it’s more messy and less discriminating than Virgo, but it has a vision. A good example of someone who is – I think he’s also – yeah he’s a Virgo, no maybe the other way round, maybe he’s a Sagittarius with Mars in Virgo, but the same combination basically, Stephen Speilberg ..

 

Kieran: Oh right.

 

Rob: He’s got this sort of grand vision, he makes all these grand movies about outer space and these big,big theories and ideas and visions and stuff but the process –

 

Kieran: Not lately!

 

Rob: Not lately … as in what?

 

The caller does not like films about dinosaurs.

 

Rob: But anyway, as far as his art goes he combines a grand vision with very, very detailed technical work required to do all those sort of computer generated images and that sort of -

 

Kieran: What do you think of a match with Scorpio – for pairings Rob?

 

Rob: Between Virgo and Scorpio? They are quite similar in a lot of ways, both quite thorough signs and they have a strong sense of loyalty and duty so ther’s a commitment between a Virgo and a Scorpio, but it depends on other stuff that’s going on in the charts as well. I notice you’ve got a Venus in Leo, which is a bit different from Scorpio, it means that in terms of fun and pleasure you need positive feedback, you like someone who will pay you plenty of attention. There’s different sides of your chart and there’s different sides of a Scorpio person’s chart as well, so compatibility is a fairly complex thing. Virgo and Scorpio are fairly compatible signs, yeah.

 

Kieran: Oh right … yeah … I always thought Virgo and Sagittarius were totally incompatible.

 

Rob: Virgo and Sagittarius?

We were talking about you having both of those in your chart –

 

Kieran: Through personal history anyway –

 

Rob: Yeah they are –

 

Kieran: Ultimately incompatible –

 

Rob: No, no. The signs that are traditionally called incompatible – it means there is a tension between them. Now if you basically like the other person and trust them it adds spice to the relationship, it means you are going to have a bit of conflict, but if you trust each other and care for each other and respect each other then the conflict can be enjoyable and exciting and stimulating. Too much incompatibility leads to too much tension and it just becomes too problematic. A bit of what you call incompatibility is actually – can be quite fun – so I don’t see it as a black and white thing.

 

Kieran: all right, thanks for that. Bye.
