I've heard claims from a Cancer friend that I'm too much like a Gemini but I laughed her off since my mum is a Gemini , I thought it's logical that I might have picked up many traits from her ( we're like buddies ! LOL! ) . However , I started to look up my chart recently and saw my Descendant in Gemini so I filled my info into astrology.com web . Guess what , I got an amazing description how I am and what I look in a relationship !
Ascendant and Descendant seem to be more influential than my Sun sign ...

Your Attraction Factor
Gemini Descendant

If Gemini lies on your Descendant, you're searching for a partner who will help you to see the trees for the forest, someone who will deflate your rhetoric with their keen view of reality. Since you have Sagittarius Rising, you have a tendency to want to roam the world endlessly, to continuously question your life's path and explore your every whim and curiosity. Being tied down frightens you, and you instinctually seek out partners who will make you aware of the smaller picture, someone who will want to keep moving around as much you do. When it comes to love, you paint with broad strokes, idealizing the notion of love and expecting your lovers to live up to your high intellectual expectations. You'd be happiest with someone vibrant and youthful; they must mentally stimulate you yet not congratulate you for your occasional arrogance and preachiness!

Hmmm I asked a similar question on a different website a couple of weeks ago because My Ex-Cancer Friend told me that my Sun Sign should have been Cancer because I was so moody and I was wondering why I attract so many Cancer Sign Men. Well My Rising Sign is Virgo and My Descendant sign is Pisces. I read somewhere that the sign that's in the "Seventh House", is the zodiac sign of ppl you are the most attracted by, you also easily get along with & you are most likely to start a love relationship with, if backed up by other zodiacal aspects.



Your Attraction Factor


Pisces Descendant

If Pisces lies on your Descendant, you wish for a romantic partner who is as tuned into the universe's rhythms and to the joy and transcendant possibilities of love as you are. Since you've got Virgo Rising, people often see you as serious and meticulous, as needing to quantify everything and be in control, someone who enjoys being needed; you may seem like the type who views love as way to security rather than as a mystical and exciting experience. When it comes to falling in love, you are at first hesitant, cautious and businesslike, quantifying your potential partner's qualities to discern whether or not they're worth your time. But it's all quite to the contrary once you're intimate with someone; in love you're actually looking for someone with whom you can share intense emotional connections and perhaps a common spirituality, someone who can read your mind and intuit your needs. A mate whose open mind and heart will free you from fears or reservations will make you the happiest.

From here : http://www.astrology.com/

AquaLuv4ya , I think that's the general description of Descendant ...But I think it affected a person more than that ...It's like the missing piece of his/herself or perhaps what a person truly is ...I am not so sure...
Here is another definition I got on the net :

The Descendant
The Descendant is a point opposite the Ascendant. It is the degree of the zodiac residing on the western horizon at the moment of birth. In the chart this point marks the cusp of the 7th house and the beginning of outward expression. Houses 1 through 6 have had a personal tone, but now they will begin to relate to our interaction with others. The Descendant suggests how you relate to those nearest to you. The seventh house is sometimes called the house of partnerships and marriage. It is very fortunate when your partner's Ascendant is in the same sign as your Descendant because this mirror image of each other produces the most constructive spousal relationships.
