We are both VERY loyal to family, and both she and I have a strong sense of responsiblity. Madame Foster, on the other hand, strikes me as being quite unpredictable and spontaneous, more like what you said about Aries people.

I can't say that I find Uncle Pockets to be funny or humorous. He's still kinda creepy to me, and his "humor" often seems tempered by some barely-concealed threat. My aunt is a Sagitarius, and while she is giving and definately has a sense of humor(notorious for practical jokes), she HATES travel, and is very much a home-body.

No person in my own experience came as close to matching Wilt's personality as my grandfather, yet he was an Aries. My mother, whose birthday was just four days later, was about as close to Duchess as any real person I've ever known, but much more violent and unpredictable. Few people could have possibly been more different. In fact, MOST of my family are Aries, yet not one is anything at all like Bloo, personality-wise(thank goodness for THAT). My late first cousin, who was killed in a small plane crash just three weeks shy of his 17th birthday, was almost Mac personified, very intellectual, often very serious and a bit of a "nerd", almost obsessed with science and technology, and he, too, was an Aries. EVen the name, Max, was similar. My father's personality is almost exactly the same as my cousin's, but a bit more helpful and giving, like a combination of the best of Mac and Wilt, but he is an Aquarius.

I wouldn't say that I take horroscopes terribly seriously myself (particularly the sort you find at the back of newspapers and magazines, which just reek of being made up on the spot). But I have an interest in them nonetheless, because, reliable or no, they have their entertainment value.

I also find Uncle Pockets to be somewhat creepy, though it's more to do with the passing resemblence he bears to a certain candyman who gave me nightmares as a kid. But he seems to hold a certain sway over the other IFs, Bloo excepted.

Oh yeah, and Mr. Herriman's personality is closest to Virgo (orderly, controlled, fussy perfectionism).

(It goes without saying of course that I'm just trying to match the characters to the established ideas of each horroscope's personality, not actually predict where their birthdays fall.)
