Virgo here too--but an old one, by these standards. I'm 39--but I don't look it!

The wrong side of 38, Gemini, with a Capricorn ascendent. That means I'm groovy exterior with a seething Type-A interior. And I'm an old fossil.

You know, Virgo , like Gemnini, has Mercury as the ruling planet. Mercury ruled beings exhibit flexibility, cunning, daring, and inventive approaches (read: crazy) to problem solving. When it's ruled by air, it's more Solo-esque. But when it's ruled by earth, as is the case with Virgo, it becomes unrelenting and almost OCD: which kind of fits for Fett, when you think about it. Virgo, next to Capricorn, is the most tenacious sign of the zodiac, but because of Mercury, it becomes wiley and edgy (where as Capricorn gets mired in the details too much). You get very focused artists with Virgo, who will do what they think is right, no matter what the risk, reward, or, consequence.  Makes me wonder what sign is Fett?  Could he be a Virgo?  I imagined him more of a Sagitarius (fire and a passion for truth, along with no problem with setting people straight) with Mars rising (agression and fearlessness) and a dash of something interesting like Aquarius or Gemini in his moon (the hidden side of the self, inner child: it fits for what he was like as a kid, something of a dreamer prior to Jango's death)

Makes me wonder too what our zodiac sort favors in the fan base.

I see Boba Fett as the ultimate Virgo. Virgos are analytical, dispassionate, very focused and detail-oriented and inherently moral (though their morality may be untraditional and all their own). They are happy to work behind the scenes in their own chosen profession and are quite content being alone.

Sound familiar?

I once did a thing where I took the SW calander and put it against our own in a sense. It says in the TPM novel that Anakin was born a week or two after Boonta Eve. So, since Boonta Eve is in about the middle of the year I placed Anakin's birthday in June. And since in the beginning of the AOTC novel it was Anakin's birthday, and assuming AOTC took place over a month or so that would make it about August at the end of AOTC. Now, Boba's still 10 in AOTC, and he's 10 in some of the young Boba books. However, about two months into the books he turns 11. That would make his birthday in October. And I'm not sure what sign is in October. I used to have a rough idea of what day exactly it was on but now I forget it and I'm not sure where my calander is.

Anyway, I'm Capricorn though I really doubt it makes any difference at all.

I was one day away from being a Libra! I was born on September 21st. I was born in the Chinese year of the Boar, which is ironic because I am reading a book for school called "Year of the Boar".

i checked the stars wars time line (gold edition which has very close ties with lucas film) and they dont even know when Fett was born. i guess we should call Lucas and ask for a date?

I already said when he was born, going on official books, if I spent a bit of time at it I could give an exact date if you wanted.

I don't feel so well today, so I did some looking around my house instead of figuring it out on my own and I found my old calander and I guess it's a bit different than I remember it being. It has Anakin in the middle of April and Boba in the middle of May. o_0 My head hurts too much right now to try to figure it out.

*Sigh* I guess they didn't check their astrology charts when they made that decision.  I was ready to believe he was an OCD Virgo.

I didn't think of that, but of course, that would have to be the case! Take Kamino, the planet Boba was cloned on. It has three moons and is in a system of 13 planets. Therefore it could not have the same astrology as our Earth, since an astrological chart is based on the positions of the Earth's constellations and planets when one is born.

Too, the fact that Boba wasn't "born" at all  might mean even Kamino astrology (whatever that looks like) wouldn't apply to him anyway.

Oh well, to me he will still be the ultimate Virgo. :p

The calander was made in early 2004 (one of the reasons I can't remember my logic behind it), and was only a loose calander cause I didn't know how our calander would relate to theirs, which was why I hadn't made a specific day. I guess it can be discredited seeing as how it makes no sense to me and I made it. lol

And thanks, I do feel some better today. :)

They probably do since a different galaxy would different constellations. By the way, I'm a scorpio.

The year 2004 was the worst year of my life, and thats the year I became 14.....Although all the worst parts of that year happened when I was still 13.

I seem to remember there being some discussion of this at some point (WAY back in the day), and many of us agreeing with your date because the novelizations of TPM and AotC say that both were born in early summer.  Not that we have to go with that date, but you shouldn't feel "discredited."  Draco, good point on the astrology.  It seems so obvious now that you say it.  :)

A story about age, just on Monday night, I was at a formal Christmas Banquet at my high school and, I dont know, I realized wow, I'm in high school and I only have 4 years of (mandatory) school left!  It was a funny thought, kind of lame of me for taking that long to realize.  Gets slapped on the face and 3 and half months later, it starts to hurt.  lol

I certainly hope its different.

Although technically I class myself as a loner anyway. So it doesn't necessarily mean that I'll be surrounded with friends after school. I only have friends now so that I have somethign to do at lunchtimes.

It is. I went to TAFE (college) and the difference is very obvious. Everyone's there to learn, if you answer something wrong you don't get ridiculed. As they say you learn from your mistakes.

Also you find other friends outside of school.
