Glad you are enjoying them!  I was a bit worried because they are just so 
darned long!

Ohhhhh!  What a great idea!  That would be such fun!  I bet the twins are 
really fun at surprise parties! <g>  I want to see a Wizard birthday cake and 
presents that are charmed to re-wrap themselves so you can't get into them 
until you say the right spell and Wizard party games and magic indoor 
fireworks!  

<Sirius, Lupin, and TMR/V are other characters whose birthdays I'd like to 
know.>

Those would be quite interesting ... and I'd love to know Draco's of course 
and Snape's and McGonagall's and Neville's and Dumbledore's.  I think 
Dumbledore may be a Capricorn (cardinal/earth).  
 
 <Speaking strictly of sun signs, the prospects don't seem the brightest.  A 
 Leo and a Virgo?  Not in my real-life experience... I'm a Leo myself.  So 
 the charts were far better than expected.  Thank goodness for all the other 
 planets.  ;-) >

Usually signs that are fall next to each other face lots of challenges when 
it comes to relationships, but they are never completely unworkable based on 
that factor alone.  Moon signs (which deal with emotions and deep inner 
feelings) are very important when it comes to relationships, and, of course, 
so is Venus!  In my own real-life experience I've had plenty of good, happy, 
healthy relationships with people whose sun signs should have been 
incompatible with my own and some really awful relationships with folks who 
should have been very compatible according to our sun signs.  That's a big 
part of why I take it all with a grain of salt (but still find it lots of fun 
to overanalyze!).

 <The regular Sunday chatters have speculated that Ron is a Taurus.  (I 
wonder 
 why?)  In my outline, I've situated his birthday on May 15, simply because I 
 like the date and have written other characters with that birthday.  Just 
 speaking from sun signs, wouldn't a Taurus (earth) and a Virgo (water) get 
 along better?>

Taurus is fixed earth and Virgo is mutable earth.  Checking my astrology 
books, I find that these two signs are "squares" which means they are not 
particularly compatible.  However, I don't really see Ron as a Taurus.  Part 
of me wants to call him a Sagittarius, but that's partly because my boss, who 
is a dead ringer for an American grown-up Ron, is a Sagittarius.  I do think 
Ron's some form of fire sign (Leo/Sagittarius/Aries).  
 
 <<So astrologically speaking, I have the sneaking suspicion that Ron and 
 Hermione just might be the more star-crossed match.  Who knows?  Ask 
 Firenze, not I.  ;0) >>

Who knows, indeed.  I reckon H/H (fixed fire & mutable earth) and R/H 
(speculatively on my part: mutable fire & mutable earth) are equally 
star-crossed, but if we ever discover Ron's birthday, I'll post R/H ship 
charts for y'all, whatever they may say.  
 
 <<As much as I love our own Catlady, I can't see Draco as a Midsummer's 
Night 
 Eve baby.  His birthday *has* to be sometime between November and January.  
 Has to.  Such a dark-souled child could not have been born on the longest 
 day of the year.  The irony is just... no.  Make him a Scorpio or a 
 Capricorn, *please*.>>

A May 21st birthday would make Draco a Gemini (mutable/air) (or Taurus/Gemini 
cusp). I love our own Catlady too (and hope she doesn't mind this), but my 
guess is that Draco's a Scorpio (fixed/water).  Draco doesn't remind me much 
of the Geminis I know.  And I haven't made him a Scorpio because I'm one 
myself (though I am, with Moon and Ascendant both in Aquarius {fixed/air} for 
anyone who's collecting Liz trivia), but because:

1) His gray eyes seem very significant (and Scorpions are known for their 
scary/captivating eyes);
2) He can hold a grudge quite well;
3) He's a bit into the dark/occult side of things (not all Scorpios are, but 
it's another thing associated with them);
4) He's two sexy to die; and
5) I agree with Ebony that he's a fall/winter baby.

 <And why does it seem as if JKR and her fans are situating a lot of these 
 birthdays in the spring and the summer?  Is no one born during the Hogwarts 
 school year?>

But we only know 2 birthdays, so there could be lots and lots of winter 
wizard babies as well.  
 < --Ebony (who believes the twins were born on April Fool's Day) >>

*giggle*  How very, very appropriate!  That would make them Taureans 
(fixed/earth) and sensual and earthy and ....my opposite sign....
