    I have always followed my heart since I was a child to make decisions.  I didn't realize that my heart could make wrong choices if it was hurt or bruised and I needed a clear heart to make correct decisions.  I finally applied my mind to clearing my heart and I now make better decisions. I still remember my mother telling me to follow my heart when it came to situations where I had to make a decision.

    Do you follow  your heart  or your head?  When you make decisions of importance that are emotional do  you chose with your heart or your head?

    Heart: Dude! you need to let me make a few decisions.

    Head: No! the last decision you made cost us 13 years of our life.

    Heart: True! but I think this time I could do a really good job.

    Head: well, Ill have to think about it.

    Body: Can we please decide here........... Paper or Plastic..... Jeez!!

    My snap judgement is always my heart but I have learned to think on it before making a move. If ever in a situation that a snap choice had to be made, the heart would rule out everytime.

    Both. In Buddhist teachings, the heart and mind are one.

    I'm more of a gut follower, but lately I've been trying to take it all to my spine and live there.

    I used to follow my heart always, but now I mostly follow my head.

    Mostly... tho the heart can still upend me if I don't keep it on a tight leash  ;)

    If I'm smart and go with my heart, I do better than if I try over analyze everything and go with my mind,

    I follow my head first, then backtrack if I have any real sense, and follow my heart/instincts.

    Gut/RAWR.  Heart and head argue too much, so eventually something snaps and says "I don't care, just choose already!" and makes for the nearest exit.  :P

    Heart, usually, but am learning to follow my head more. This is mostly due to the fact that my emotional base is up for review (t.Pluto conj Cap Moon). My heart is too fragile to handle the entire load.

    I don't follow nobody or nuffin!  I blame my Aquarius aspects, I think.

    My heart doesn't do a good job of leading me anywhere.

    Both. For emotional decisions, I follow my heart. It's the one area I don't (Virgo) over-analyze.
