Researching signs of serial killers...

After I began to believe in horoscopes because I had finally developed my full personality, I started to get very into researching other's horoscopes and marveling at how correct they are. Just the other week, I was watching a serial killer documentary on YouTube (I don't remember which one) and they said he was born in early August, a Leo. This particular killer was very egotistical when it came to killing, and even admitted to a few dozen more murders than he actually committed. I am a Leo and I know quite a few Leos...at the very least, they are confident. At the worst and most, egotistical and thinking they can't do wrong. So this made me do some research. I found that Ted Bundy was a Scorpio. He worked in government...had angry outbursts...Scorpios tend to experience emotion in very deep, sharp ways, while many are power hungry. I know many hate being wronged. And this guy started a killing spree of women who reminded him of the ex-girlfriend who'd said he wasn't mature enough to continue a relationship. He snapped. Then I researched Jeffrey Dahmer...a Taurus. Of course, he was also a murderer and a cannibal. No other sign appreciates the things that belong to them more...and, on the verge of being too gruesome here, he kept parts of his victims and kept them safe in tanks of chemicals and freezers. There were others I researched, but this is just to give everyone an idea. Obviously these people are not what we want identifying our individual signs...but it was amazing how much the signs had an influence on these people. It showed me that your signs affect what you do and how you do it...NOT just how you act. I've also researched the signs of presidents and celebrities...just to get an idea. Has anyone else done this? What have you found? Do you have any interesting connections to make with a certain person and their sign that many of us would know? Or is this the first time you've heard of such a thing, and does it intrigue you?

I myself have done research on the behavioral patterns of people born under different astrological signs. I have found that certain people born under certain phases of the moon exhibit the same personality characteristics. It is uncanny.

Have you as well? It's always so fun to do research on that kind of thing. You can guess and check..."I bet that president was a Scorpio!" and see if you were right. It's like a game...and after researching each person it's always an "ah-HA!" moment.

This is the first time I have read of a connection between ones astrological sign and murderers. It wouldn't surprise me in the least. I suspect that Detectives and Phsychologists reasearching the profiles of murderers have found a connection, but have not made it public. There would be too many misconceptions.. I know that astrology can be very accurate. I am an aquariun and apparently a very typical one. My ex hubby, a police officer, always said that a lot more crime was commited when there was a full moon. Interesting!

You know, that is extremely interesting about the full moon thing. And speaking of astrology, I think it connects. Very often I read my husband's horoscope along with my own (he is a Cancer) and it mentions the moon and it's pull on the Earth and how that will affect his general mood for awhile. I haven't always understood that, how that could affect us, but it does seem to. Your ex-husband brought up something very interesting. Astrology and psychic readings are used often with crime, but very rarely does it lead to something new and big. You hear about the cases that psychics find out who the killer is and lead police to evidence and bodies...those are thought-provoking, but don't happen very often. Psychics aren't always a sure thing. However, I have yet to see a horoscope personality profile that does not match the person of the sign at least 50% of the time in grown adults. I think that although my personal research on this subject proved that many serial killers incorporate their horoscope signs into the murders they commit, it can't help investigations in any way. For example, knowing Jeffrey Dahmer was a Taurus wouldn't help police catch him or even get them closer to understanding him. But it's interesting to connect the sign with the methods they used.
