I'm not doing anything different than OP, just a way more fleshed out version
Couldn't you say it's unfair that I probably know more about the person than they know about themselves? It definitely puts me in a position where I have to constantly check my motives.

People tend to see themselves as an ego. The ego may or may not be who they actually are or who we see. No I tend to think I know more about alot of people than they know about themselves. That's all on intuition and a rough understanding of psychology and sociology. Unfair? Maybe. It absolutely does depend on what you are using that knowledge for.
I'm the kind of person that does manipulate others for entertainment, because I am a weird introverted fuck that's fascinated by human psychology. But I never intend to hurt someone, nor would I ever 'push a button' so to speak that would hurt them or get them in trouble. I honestly think that it is a jacked up introverts form of finding common ground with others. If you know what I mean.
I don't get angry all that easily (at least not at a particular person), and I don't care to use people for personal gain (actually a problem of mine, I can't even talk to my boss about raises or promotions), it is just not in my nature to harm people or set them up to be harmed. Manipulation is a natural part of social interaction. How far you take it and what you do with it determines whether it is a good or a bad thing.
There will always be those who know more than others. As long as you aren't talking to their mom behind their back and being deceitful then there is nothing wrong with knowledge and awareness in the person you are talking to and adjusting the way you interact with them. Honestly everyone should do a little of this, and most do. The one and only difference here is the method.

Manipulation gets such a negative association. Everyone manipulates in one way or another, haggling or convincing someone going to the movies with you is manipulation. 
It's alright as long as you're aware and not taking advantage. Who knows, maybe she wants to be manipulated? 
Guilty of looking at my star sign from time to time and I have a birth chart which I am unable to decipher

I don't think it is manipulation unless you use it manipulate. And you can hardly do much with a sun sign anywho. I ask most everyone what their birthday is and alot of time look up their charts. It's never for a manipulated thing but more of a research thing. I like to see if people actually act according to their astrology make up. Although most of the time they don't and it's all circumstantial to their own personal growth. I find I act different than my sun sign and more like my moon and ascendant. So I am honestly more interested in those. As well as what elements are prominent in your whole chart.
Saying that though. I do find myself strangely attracted to certain signs of different sexes. Like male geminis and libras and female aries, capricorns and cancers. All my past relationships have been geminis and libras. And my current one is with a gemini. And my son is an aries... as well as my mother. Hahah
Also @Jokeshopbeard - Honey, you are not a water sign. Sorry to tell you. You are an air sun sign. Haha Pretty confusing that one is. Air and Fire usually go well together. As much as Water and Earth.

thanks for the comments that were actually relevant and for the people who replied with attacking comments, i wasnt asking for advice in regards to this girl, i was using her as an example as part of my question, my question was only to if some would say acting on knowledge of start sign, genuinely, to reach a certain objective is an act of manipulation..

I think she means the sun sign is only part of the picture and doesn't fit for everyone and to really 'get' someone you should look at their other signs too.
Ime just looking at their Mayan sign is a whole hell of alot easier.

Oh this reminds me of the one time I ever really made anyone uncomfortable doing this. I'd literally just met the dude and we were talking about the Mayan when I looked up his sign and gave him the insight. He got freaked out so I tried to go further and explain it but that only freaked him out more. I felt right bad about that. Dude actually acted like I was stalking him or something.
 So... These days I'm a little less eager to "give insight" on people I don't know real well.

LOL. Sorry about that dude Cookie! Haha I've gotten that too sometimes and frankly told them "Dude, I astrology stalk everyone.'
Which Mayan sign thing you were looking at? I only found the one that only gives you like a short paragraph about it. There's this other type of Mayan astrology. This Dreamspell one that is very interesting as well. I remember there being a thread about it years ago and I had the same on as Shroomism.
@Apollop - Yep, what Cookies said. It's such a basic thing really, like what sports team you like. There's so much information that you can get and that most people understand about astrology that is very vague. Like basic characteristics that most people can have as well as that monthly/weekly astrology stuff. To me, you can just really over analyze and assume alot about people just based off of their sun sign.

I already told you, one placement is not indicative of an entire personality, just as the stars are innumerable so is a personality, so choosing to use one facet of a personality to base your game off of is short sighted, but you don't know what you don't know, so there's no way to force feed you an understanding of what everybody is saying here

I use a chart or website to search someones Mayan Galactic Signature using their full birth date and then use the dreamspells website to get the whole deal, their compliment, subconscious self, higher self, shadows and lights. I personally like it because it's super simple while deep and as complex as a human being is. Ime if you understand it well enough you can see when someone is acting in their signature sign, in shadow or light, or their higher self. It is alot more spiritual than the western zodiac and hasn't been half as corrupted by silly teenage girls.
I can pop some links when I get home if you'd like.

I had this book for a while, lost it through moves though, or probably let someone borrow it and never got it back. Shit was spooky though because of how accurate it was.

There's been a handful of astrology threads. Most of them die out because people tend to think of zodiac as the silly mainstream horoscopes mess of these days. Or people just plain aren't interested.
This is the website I look at to look up a signature and a brief description http://www.icandosomething.com/mayancalendar/
And then this one to look up the associated signs and in depth description.
http://www.astrodreamadvisor.com/free_mayan_readings.html
I tend to find myself around alot of Moons and Blues and Whites. Strange. I especially like the first one because it helps people understand how to "tune" themselves to be happy in life.
