Rivalry between same sun signs?!


Question:

Rivalry between same sun signs?

Thinking back about certain events in my life, I've realised something very interesting.

Now you might want to say it doesn't matter which sign anyone is - fair enough. I agree there. But no matter what the rest of your chart looks like, haven't you noticed that between same Sun signs, there is more rivalry than between different sun signs?

I've seen this in my current boyfriend and my ex. My ex, apparently still had something for me but he never 'came and got it' so to speak. My current boyfriend just won't admit it. They're both Virgo. Even worse; not only their Sun, but also their Venus and Mercury are in the same sign. My boyfriend told me my ex had been looking at him jealously, and he himself feels awkward being in the same room with my ex. Even though they're completely different people, they seemed to have recognised each other as rivals.

This is the first time I've seen such a strange and absurd form of 'jealousy' or rivalry between two men.

They seemed to recognise each other as being the 'same' - even friends of mine told me they weren't surprised I'd go for my current boyfriend because 'he kind of has the same attitide' as my ex.

They're both Virgo - with mercury in Libra and venus in Leo.

Now, I can imagine rivalry between two Scorpio's would be generally higher than any other signs - being the instinctively jealous and competitive characters they are - but I think people subconsciously recognise same sun signs and immediately get bigger rivalry from them because they have to work harder to get the same thing - as they're already the same "ego" anyway and so personality won't be the most important way to win something.




OR is that just me?

I'm sure it'll last till one of them has what they both want... can't help but feeling flattered though!

But I swear; they're the most jealous Virgo's I'd ever come across! LOL And I thought Scorpios were bad...

PS; I wanted people to look at this from a psychological side. Rivalry becomes greater if the two people are very similar to one another (like sibling rivalry, two sisters who have had the same chances, same looks, same upbringing, trying to single one another out)

Also I wanted to see if the same thing comes up a lot in "sun sign siblings" - being of the same sun sign of course. If this is true, then... well you can make your own conclusions out of it then :)

Another PS; I'm a Scorpio... I don't care about pride when I want something - I go for it, even if someone has to be put back for it. Rivalry comes before pride :p

There's always rivalry between two (or more) people who want the same thing.

Different personalities, however (regardless of their Astrological chart, just different 'personalities') who want the same thing, will have one obvious 'winner' and a 'loser'. Because the personality would be the breaking point - if they're going for a love interest, at least.
People with the same 'personality' (also regardless of their Astrological chart for now) will both have to work harder to get the love interest's attention, because then personality wouldn't be the breakthrough point and the odds are more against the both of them. It induces competition. So the rivalry between the two will be greater.

How often don't you hear people say 'I couldn't live with myself because I would be fighting with me all the time'?

Now, my question is; this effect... The greater rivalry, is it more common between two sun signs - or better yet; is it actually greater than rivalry between two different signs?

And indications of rivalry?

Well, my current boyfriend - I can talk about an old friend who's had a thing for me and that I want to see him again, since I heard he's back in town, and he's okay with that.
I can talk about any other ex I've been with, and he doesn't mind.
If I mention my ex only once, he goes mental.
When I'm talking to very close friends -even ex boyfriends-, he gives me the room to talk to them and leaves me the time I need.
When I'm in the same room with my ex, he'll make sure my ex knows I'm with him.

From my ex's side, I only know he'd been staring at me a lot since I saw him back, but never the people I was with - only just to check them out to see what kind of people I went out with. Apparently according to my boyfriend, he gave him a very jealous and 'she's mine' look.
And my ex doesn't like it at all when I even mention my boyfriend.

They both pretend to get along. You can see it in their eyes. And they cross looks more often than is healthy.

It's kinda funny looking back on it... LOL


Answers:

...all quite interesting.

different but not completely different if they have those indicators. but still quite different.

jealousy is a human fear and not absurd. and but jealousy do not imply rivalry.

rivalry's can exist between sun-signs as they can exist between persons of no same sign.

sometimes or often a person of one sun-sign may seem to be more accepted for their own personal gifts than another sun-sign and the person of lesser acceptance and recognition will feel some loss of esteem.

and that human ability is not confined to same sun-signs.

but this do not mean there is rivaly. there is not rivalry until one determines that their selfish intentions will be successfull in spite of the conditions of relationship which they seek to change.

you have not related any information which would certainly identify one or other as rivals...

**edits**

you seem now to be under the developing idea that they both have you as their desire which may be true. i don't know. we have only your view to see. but if you feel that each desire you because that there is friction developing when your triangle is present of mind and body then there may be added incentive that the near-twin of one has replaced him and yes this could superficially complicate relationships.

but your same sun sign allusion as somehow being initial catalyst is erroneous for that would indicate they are jealous of each other moreso than that you are the desired objective.

i wonder....did you determine to have your new relationship based on prior experience similarities..? in any way..?

it would also be interesting to know for what/how you hold your self responsible to the creation of any of these relationships and to what purpose you have for your self in any also...?


be well
