So, searching through the search and being bored has lead me to start this thread that probably won't be wicked popular but it's something I've been wanting to do.
Now, I have a "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Astrology: Fourth Edition" by Madeline Gerwick-Brodeur and Lisa Lenard that I have taken a particular interest and reliance in. It's very informative and descriptive and the people who I've told what their Sun, Moon, and Ascendants mean say it's very accurate.
However, I understand that it's so "accurate" because it's so vague and know that it is a Pseudoscience. This is an interest in me, like making hemp bracelets/necklaces and singing.
I'll give you a little intro into my personality and will be willing to do the same for others if they give me the correct accurate information. This will be long, and since spoilers aren't up, I'll put in the words if you want to skip it.

So, let the conversations begin

Sun: Pisces
Mutable water: from solid (ice) to liquid to gas (vapor). This is the character is Pisces, changing according to outside conditions. And yet Fishes live largely in the world of the imagination, the realm of dreams, where objects and events seem to have no connection to outer reality. What's going on here?
The last sign of the zodiac is truly universal. Pisces creates the possibility to move beyond self into transcendence, represented to humans as the world of dreams and faith. But this also can be a world of sheer escapism, where dreaming is done for its own sake. [Fish], we could say, can either sink or swim.
Put another way, [Fish] know which way the river is running and might swim with it or against it. Swimming against it can mean that they might find a way to another stream ("hooked" [Fish] can channel their addictions, for example), while swimming with it might mean, quite literally, "going with the flow," and living intuitively.
[Fish]are highly intuitive, and Pisces is the sign that merges with others so easily that these people done always know what's there's and what belongs to someone else. As the last sign of the zodiac, Pisces carries the knowledge of the preceding 11 signs, knowing and understanding the light, dark, and shadowy in-betweens of human nature. [Fish] are frequently so sensitive to the vibrations of others that they can go into work and instantly feel how others are doing. Unfortunately, they also might unconsciously take responsibility for how others are doing, or wonder why they feel so bad - especially when they woke up feeling so good!
For this reason, [Fish] can have a hard time maintaining their boundaries and knowing what they're feeling, as opposed to what others are feeling. The reason for this boundary stuff goes back to the main point of Pisces, which is to merge with others and, eventually, the Source or God. [Fish] are in a highly spiritual sign, living in a very nonspiritual world. For this reason, it's easy for them to get off-track by merging with the wrong people and to get away from their true spiritual focus.
Above all, [Fish] are here to give, not just to those like themselves, but to anyone who needs their help, love, attention, or whatever. Pisces want to heal and will sacrifice for the great good of their families, communities, and country.
Moon: Scorpio
A Moon in Scorpio is so intense that it spends a great deal of energy protecting itself from its own emotions. Well aware of how powerful emotions can be (and never satisfied with superficial answers), Scorpio Moons can be suspicious of others and quick to judge, and can hold grudges for a very, very long time. At the same time, they have a desire to understand deep mysteries and get to the bottom of things, which makes Scorpio Moons' emotional nature both intuitive and potent, capable of stronger feelings than any other Moon sign. Scorpio Moons often seek their soul mates. Above all, Scorpio Moons feel with their intense emotions.
Ascendant: Gemini
Motion. That's what you're going to see in Rising Twins. Restlessness is the hallmark of this ascendant., and Rising Twins find their identity by making as many contacts as possible. Rising Twins are often the life of the party and, in fact, are often giving the party.
At the same time, Rising Twins are learning to be the eternal youth, free spirit, entertainer, artist, or comedian. They can also be the troubadour minstrel, court jester, trickster, or clown, or the coyote that leaves a surprise. Remember that the court jester was the only one who could tell the King the truth and not be killed for it (another form of messenger). Rising Twins are learning how to communicate truthfully without getting creamed for it.
A Gemini ascendant will appear excitable and quick - and also prone to upset. At the same time, there's an aloofness here: Twins' connections are made on a mental field which can often leave emotions out in the cold.
For those of you who don't know the difference between "Sun, Moon, and Ascendant;" the Sun is, essentially, who you are; the Moon is "your emotional self, your feelings, and your intuition;" and your Ascendant is your face, or your mask, that you present to other people. "How you come off to other people" is also a good way to describe what your Ascendant means to you, personally.
There are many more things that I won't get into now, but will if anyone has questions.
For those of you who have studied Astrology more thoroughly, here's my natal birth chart (listed).

I didn't put degrees in here because I don't know the best way to write them. Also, I don't know much about Retrogrades because I didn't find enough interest in the chapter :/...
