Dark Horses – What Women Really Want

A few years back there was a question on twitter ” What are the four worst words to hear on your first date ? “

One bright spark replied ” I’m a quadruple Capricorn “.

Naturally I came back saying ” I’ll be ok then because I’ve got six placements in the sign lol “.

Responses continued to flow – ” Never mind, you’d go down a storm in a nursing home ” etc etc.

This memory came to mind when my wife Karen read an old article that I had posted – Susan Anton and Dudley Moore – Golden Girl and Cuddly Dud where I might have suggested that ” If you asked men for their perfect astrological fantasy woman most of the answers would be Libra or Scorpio. “

She therefore decided to do a spot of her own research and asked her Facebook female friends to choose their own favourite male heartthrobs.

Forty six names were put forward ranging in ages from Paul Newman to Harry Styles so we decided to put them all through the software to see which Zodiac signs came out strongest.

The results are as follows

HEARTTHROBSSUNMOONMERCURYVENUSMARSTOTAL

CAPRICORN5783528
AQUARIUS5344319
PISCES4247017

The strongest Sun sign showing is Scorpio with 6 although the trophy for all the personal planets goes to Capricorn with 28 thanks to a strong Moon and Mercury result.

I know it’s a small sample and you can’t read too much into this from an astrological perspective but there is an intriguing focus on the so called ” dark signs “.

Given that it’s not possible to have the Sun and Mercury in signs more than one apart, it looks from the above table that the ” perfect man ” would have Sun, Moon, Mercury in Capricorn, Venus in Pisces and Mars in Sagittarius.

So there we have it, dark horses for courses.

My natural Capricorn modesty would prevent me from saying where I would sit on this table but I will say that we may be slow out of the blocks but we get there in the end.

So perhaps best not to judge on a first date.
