BC: Breath players are described from the Extended Zodiac as...

“above all, expansive. Flexible and driven, they leave an impact wherever they go. Like the breeze itself, they are able to sweep others up to carry along in their wake, but also like the breeze, they can be difficult to catch hold of or tie down. Although Breath-bound do make very good leaders, breath tends to be a very personal aspect. Often, heroism comes along as an offshoot of them pursuing their own personal stories. They lead by example, and will routinely be surprised that others look up to or feel inspired by them. They have a tendency to underestimate themselves, and not always out of poor self-esteem. They were just doing their own thing. At their best Breath-bound are motivated, adaptable, and forward thinking, but at their worst they can be volatile, avoidant, and gullible.”

BC: Breath players are the free spirited type of people. The tend to do their own thing, often by themselves. They are likely to be introverts, but may also just enjoy time by themselves as well as time with others. Breath players at a leaders stand point are the type of leader who leads by example. Since the tend to focus on themselves, they tend to be the prime example that you can trive to be. They are definitely the type of person to just show you want to do then really telling you. Because of their disconnected nature Breath players my struggle with actually connecting with other people and struggle with telling people what to go. They more of the type of people to be told what to do than really tell people what to do. Because of they are more will to do things that other people what to do since they just want to “go with the flow”, but this may cause them to be a bit of a push over and seem gullible. Breath players need to learn to stand their ground and be able to connect with others in order to lead their team and themselves to victory.

BC: Blood players are described from the Extended Zodiac as...

“draw their strength from bonds, from the trust and camaraderie that blooms among a group of people who all share a single vision. Blood-bound are absolutely leaders, but they inhabit more of an inspirational role than a commanding one. They are prophets, rather than generals, giving others the strength and motivation to keep fighting. The Blood-bound can dispense excellent advice even when their own lives and interpersonal relationships are disasters. They can be very "do as I say, not as I do" types. A Blood-bound can often be found on a sinking ship, forcing an endeavor forward with sheer stubborn force of will. No matter how bad things go, a Blood-bound can always count on friends and allies. At their best, they are charismatic, uplifting, and magnetic. At their worst they can be sullen, unkind, and set-in-their-ways.”

BC: Blood players are born to be leaders. They are the type of people who are more than will to help anyone out and, deep down, care a lot about other people. They cherish their connection, wether that being their family or friends. As a leader, they may not be the best at whatever they are leading, whether that being a sport or other thing that needs a leader, they are the ones who knows that their doing and know how to make other people better. They are more focused on improving others instead of themselves. They are more inclined to tell you how to do something then really show you. They are also more their as modivation and there to help you. But because they are more will to tell you, they are more likely to think that they are right. They believe that they know best, and because of this they can come off as inflexible and set in their ways. They can also be overbearing, always critiquing others all the time instead of themselves. Blood players need to learn to stop being so overbearing with other people and step back. They need to be able to improve themselves inorder to be the best leader they can be. You need to be able to improve yourself before you improve others after all.

BC: Players bound to these aspect are the ones how bring truth to the group. The ones how help keep the team moving and know when it’s right or wrong to stop.

BC: Hope players are described from

The Extended Zodiac quiz as...

“... driven first and foremost by their convictions. They do right for right's sake, and are quick to come to the aid of anyone they deem to be experiencing injustice. That said, their views of the world can be quite black and white, so what they see as the "right" thing may not always be the universally accepted view. They put great value in the power of the imagination, the ability to dream up a better and more beautiful future. If anyone could dream a better world into existence, it would be one of the Hope-bound. They may sound like all sunshine and rainbows, but they aren't adverse to a little destruction, especially if they think they can replace it with something better and more just. At their best, Hope-bound are positive, caring, and warm. At their worst they can be narrow-minded and selfish.”

BC: Hope players are those who put their believes first. They tend to have big dreams for the future and have an exact idea on how it should be. Because they hold their beliefs so strongly, they tend to come off as stubborn or selfish because they only believe in their own truth. They are likely to motivate others because they believe that they can do it. Hope players have a strong and high self-esteem and believe that they can do anything. Hope players believe in themselves so much that they can lose track of how possible the thing they are trying to achieve really is. Hope players need to learn to listen to other people and understand not everything is possible, don’t let hope blind you from the truth.

BC: Rage players are described from the Extended Zodiac quiz as...

“... bringers of chaos. They posses great contempt for lies or false ideas, including the stability that false ideas can impart. To them, the true is far more important than the good; they would tear down a system just to destabilize it if, by their reckoning, it is built on faulty premises. Often the Rage-bound prefer anarchy to any of the alternate forms of civilization, which they believe to be riddled with lies and foolishness and obedient masses. They are bringers of confusion and doubt, and they can be frustratingly difficult to convince otherwise when they have attached themselves to an idea. If they sound dangerous, they are. The Rage-bound tend to be most volatile and unpredictable of the aspects. At their best they are original, revolutionary, and fearless. At their worst they are cruel, uncompromising, and vicious.”

BC: Rage players are those who bring doubts to your session. This isn’t to say that they are there to basically ruin the whole game, they are just putting a more realilic point of view on the matter. Rage players are the type to say, “Are you sure that right?” or “I don’t know if that’s going to work.” They are their to being attention the idea that not everything may go the way you want it to. They may seem cruel, but this is just their way of showing how much they care about you. They are just more willing to take the path that they know is right than walk down the path of hope blindly. Rage players need to be able to have faith in certain situations and be able to know when it is the right time to step in and question the situation around them.

Heart and Mind

BC: Heart and Mind are the aspect related to decision making and ways of thinking. These player have the job of helping your team on the big decisions the you’ll have to making during the session.

BC: Mind and Heart players main focus is what path they must take. They are always wondering what path to take and what they are capable of. They both deal with judgment and how it should be done in each of their aspects own way.

BC: Heart players, as described from the Extended Zodiac quiz as,

“... very concerned with their favorite subject: themselves. It wouldn't be a stretch to call them 'self-obsessed', but not necessarily in a negative way. They simply want to understand the one thing we all are stuck with for our entire lives, i.e. our own minds. Forging an identity is extremely important to the Heart-bound, and every decision and action goes toward building a coherent narrative of their own story. That isn't to say Heart-bound don't care deeply for their friends and allies; they just have a tendency to assume that everyone is as concerned with identity as they are. They are excellent at putting on and taking off masks as the situation calls for them. At their best, they are competent, imaginative, and steady. At their worst they can be overbearing, inflexible, and cold.”

BC: Heart players are simply described as self reflective. They tend to analyze themselves and look at every part of their personality. They like to understand why they make certain descions and why they make them. They are more concerned of why then really how or what descion to make. They tend to rely more on instinct than to over analyze what descions to make. Heart players also tend to care deeply about their relationships with other people, and will act different way around other people to please them. They care about how they present themselves and what others think of them. They will act upon how they would normally act in a certain situation than what would be the more reasonable thing to do. For example if they are in a interview, Heart players are the type to be too honest and show every part of themselves reguardless if it’s good or bad. Overall Heart players need to learn to think about the descions that they need to make than to go with their instincts and try to understand others and not just themselves.

BC: Mind players are described from the Extended Zodiac quiz as...

“... great thinkers. But don't for a second think that means that they have all the answers. They are very concerned with remaining rational, and they have such a firm hold on the constant conjunction of their thinking that it's easy for them to see the multitudes of the choices laid out before them, which often leaves them frozen and unable to act. That said, when a Mind-bound finally launches into action, they can execute a plan with unbelievable grace and precision. Their identity is fluid-it can change from day-to-day, from thought-to-thought, from interaction-to-interaction. Remaining logical is more important to them than building up a solid foundation of "self." At their best they are great innovators, architects, and creators. At their worst they can be nasty, inflexible, and indecisive.”

BC: Mind players are the rational thinkers of the group. They are the ones who everyone goes for advise since they always know what to do. They are the type to really analyze the situation and understand what the consequences are before making a descion. They like to plan things out before acting. Mind players also concern themselves with what others are doing and how they will effect in certain situations. They would be great team makers. They may not have a very fleshed out personality since they are more concerned about what they need to do and not about why they should do it. They tend to analyze others then themselves. Mind players would be the type to plan every step on how they should act instead of being their true selves. Mind players need to learn to be more self trusting and understand themselves more so they can be more willing to act on their instincts then to over analyze.

Time and Space

BC: Time and Space aspects are probably one of the most important aspects out of all of them. Without these two aspects a Sburb games session is impossible to win. So having a Time and Space player on your team is very important.

BC: Time and Space both deal with the idea of the process of something, which can anything from creating a painting to perfecting your skills in a sport. They define the setting of a story, whether that being the time it takes place or what part of the world or even planet you are on. Both also have connections to a timeline with time being the past and the future and space being the present. In this, a player with the time or space aspect may think about on a daily basis.

BC: Time players, as described from the Extended Zodiac quiz as...

“...fighters, full stop. Their lives are often marked by struggle, not so much because fate has it in for them, but because they are fundamentally incapable of just accepting things as they come. They value action over passive acceptance, even if that may not be the wisest or safest choice. Don't try to tell a Time-bound to sit still and look pretty. They are very goal-focused, and tend to value the destination over the journey, and you won't find them making that journey in any traditional sort of way. To quote cheesy posters found on many a guidance counselor's wall-"impossible is just a word". If you need a miracle, they are who you call. At their best, the Time-bound are empathetic and relentless problem-solvers. At their worst they are ruthless, defensive, and impulsive.”

BC: On another note, the are people who won’t stop until they have achieved their goals. They are the people who are using every bit of their time to perfect their skills. They are people that are always trying to get better not matter what. They are never satisfied with what they have now. Time players may also be the type to talk about their goals in life, they are definitely dreamers. They have big expectations for themselves and will do anything to achieve that. Time players along with Space players tend to be artists. Perhaps they are musians or dancers, they have some other talent that takes time and dedication to do like a sport like baseball or martial arts. Because they like to spend their time on thing they will help them reach their goal, if they are in a situation that will cause them to “waste time”, it’ll cause them to come off as impatient and irritable. Time players are also more intended on the final out come of their goal than on really how to get their. They don’t care how they get there as long as it’s fast and that they eventually get there. But time players need to learn the slow down and not just plan on the future, but on how they will get there in the present.

BC: Space players, are defined from the Extended Zodiac quiz as being...

“... concerned with the big picture. They are patient, masters of the art of 'wait-and-see', and are inclined to take things as they come. That isn't to say that they're pushovers or willing to let injustice lie-they just choose their battles wisely, understanding that sometimes you have to let something burn to the ground in order to build it back better and stronger than before. To this effect, they tend to be innovators, concerned with creation and redemption. Catch them recycling the old to make the new, the fresh, and the beautiful. For the Space-bound, the journey is as, if not more, important than the destination; how they do something is as important as what they do. At their best, they are steady, impartial, and creative. At their worst, they can be detached, apathetic, and vague.”

BC: Space players are more concerned about how thing should be would rather then how they will end up. This doesn’t mean they don’t have any goals, rather that they more willing to wait for it to happen then for it to happen as soon as possible. While Time is the type to want to be CEO straight out of college, space players are more willing to climb the ladder to achieve their goals. In this they may come off as they don’t care how they end up or what happens to them, but they simply know when they are ready. Space players pay more attention to the process of something rather than the end result. These type of people tend to be great artists because of this, because they understand the process of how to create a master piece. Space players lives more in the present and are less concerned about the past and the future. They maybe more interested in what they should change about themselves right now, whether that being their outfit or how they are acting in the certain situation. Space players need to learn that what they do now will effect them in the future and to learn to be more driven in their persuits.

Aspect Pairings

BC: As I would assume all of you know that each aspect has a relitive pair which can be seen from the wheel from the Extended Zodiac. Each pair corispond with each other and are seemingly opposites of one another. The most obvious pairing would be the aspects of Time and Space...my aspects is you haven’t already noticed... Time being rhythm, timing, consistency, endings, and most notably destruction. Space being randomness, begenings, change, and creation. So they corispond with each other...

BC: Other pairings include:

Time-Space

Light-Void

Doom-Life

Blood-Breath

Rage-Hope

Heart-Mind

BC: Each pairing corispond with each other and will always be with each other in every action associated with the given aspect. Similar to how every action as an equal or opposite reaction. You will never see one aspect with out seeing the other in another point of view. In this context you can see that nothing can purely be one aspect, but simply we are notice the action of one more than the other. For example, in the context of Time and Space, you can not create something without it seeming like you are destroying something, like coving a piece a wood. From one angle you are creating a wooden chair, on the other you are destroying the piece of wood. Each pairing will always be with one another...

BC: On aspects on a more personinality level, the aspect that you lean more towards is topically who you see yourself and could or could not be how others perseve you. It all depends on which side you allow yourself to be seen. This topic will go further once I talk more about classpects and inversion. But for now I’ll leave it at that...
