Also, I’ve read some scary stuff online about saturn in the 8th house and now I’m curious, could someone please be kind enough to provide some information about that placement, and if it’s somehow connected to the loss of friendships?
My chart has all these intense and dramatic placements and aspects, then there’s little Libra Venus just barely in my 3H. I think part of what confuses me is that since Libra is domicile in Venus, it can be difficult to understand what defines a Venus in Libra versus Venus in general. For example, I hear often that Libra in Venus loves love and is always in relationships. I do have a dreamy romantic streak, but it’s more fantasy. In reality, I’m picky, I think too much and I’m too focused on building myself up.
The most I see this placement is that I enjoy and admire Libra Suns, some of whom give me gifts?
What does it mean to have a strong placement, and what makes a placement strong?
With Chiron conjunct the descendent, Neptune and Uranus in the 11th, Saturn in the 1st, and Pluto conjunct my Sun, I feel like my chart has a lot of indicators of loneliness and being unable to truly connect with others.
I’ve recently been studying the Lot of Fortune and think it’s interesting that it’s in my 7th House. My mind immediately goes to it being a placement that indicates taking advantage of others - is that true? How do Chiron and the Lot of Fortune work together in the same house?
I’ve recently noticed that I struggle with constantly deferring to people. I’m otherwise a very confident person, I just struggle with speaking with authority at work, trusting my own decisions, and stay in relationships that I know are wrong for me. I’m often waiting for someone to give me permission to do something rather than taking initiative.
I was recently persuaded by some of my work friends to pull up my start chart so they could analyse me. I’m not much into astrology myself, but I can’t help but be intrigued by some of the things shown here. One thing in particularly is the fact that the majority of the planets, as well as most of the other stuff, seem to be below the horizon line. I’m not sure if that means anything, but if it does, I’d love to know. I’m also curious what the influence of having so many fire signs has, particularly from Aries it seems, on a sun sign that’s water.
Beyond those two questions, of course, any other insight will be greatly appreciated. If there is anything that jumps out at you and you want to share, please do!
Another site, which I've read is inaccurate, said I had both in my chart but I am not seeing it. I am hopeful I have something interesting going on in my chart lol
I’m trying to Google and search but a bunch of teen vogue articles overtake any information. I was able to find diets to follow for each zodiac. But really I’m trying to record even beyond just what fruit each sign rules. I’m trying to find every little thing the sign may be connected or corresponds to or rules it. Overall, the one thing I cannot find in particular is the dang fruit!
I know the third house can indicate communication and siblings, each of my siblings ruling planet falls in my 3rd house, but what does it show about communication? I want to improve the way I talk to people, but every time I do i feel like i just went backwards :(
i’ve been dealing with OCD since early childhood so i’m assuming it can be seen in my chart—i just don’t know where to look.
i was also wondering if our charts can tell us why our mental illnesses manifest in the way that they do—in my case, my OCD. for example: there are subtypes of OCD. i personally have “just right” OCD, AKA symmetry/ordering OCD. if you don’t know what that entails, basically, my compulsions aren’t really driven by a specific fear (ex: i don’t really think “if i don’t do this, my house will catch on fire”); there are just a lot of things i feel like i need to do in a certain way. i also struggle with hoarding as a symptom. in short, i reallyyy struggle with change.
so, could my chart tell you why my OCD might look like this as opposed to having specific intrusive thoughts (not that i don’t have those, but they don’t really lead me to compulsions)? i feel like subtypes might directly correlate with our personalities and i know astrology can tell us lots about our personality, so i’ve been curious
A little context: Throughout my life, I faced constant themes of rejection and polarization(?? best word I can describe) from others even if I am the most polite or essentially did do anything to promote harm or suppress someone. I am incredibly perplexed? Like, today, I smiled at someone and they grimaced while the same action was done from someone else and they hit it off like fireworks. Any advice is welcome and appreciated.
I would appreciate it if you could offer me some guidance on how to improve my motivation to take action. Perhaps there are ways to compensate for the tense aspects wigh my moon, including the conjunction with Algol.
I find myself "stuck in my head" over thinking, questioning everything, overanalyzing which then exhausts me so I end up not taking action. I also get stuck in depressive episodes and have trouble developing a positive mindset. Thank you so much!
In some cases I also feel as though I’m expected to slave around for people, and as if the rules that apply to everyone else don’t matter when it comes to me.
Is it my Neptune conjunct my Sun and Mercury? Is it my Sun or stellium opposing my Ascendant? Or my multiple planets in the house of service? Or a wonderful concoction of all things listed? I’m so fed up.🫤
My family has a history of alcohol addiction and I was wondering if anything in my charts indicates that I'm vulnerable in that aspect
I really love meeting people and talking with people but often afraid I look stupid or have said the wrong thing.
Hi there! I would love to get some more information from my chart to see where I might be at in my journey to find love. Here’s some context that I hope might be helpful:
Relationship History & Patterns: I have had one relationship in my late 20s, and my partner was abusive. It took a lot for me to leave the relationship, and my primary fear was that this would be my only opportunity for love. I have had a lovely casual connection with someone since then, but nothing romantic. Since I left that relationship, I have put in a lot of work to learn how to be alone and sit with the discomfort that it brings. One of my biggest patterns is that I tend to put more into relationships (romantic and other) than I receive, because of fear of abandonment. I’m working really hard in therapy to change this and I feel like I’m at the best place I’ve been in a very long time. I am not someone who goes on dates to just really date, and I feel like I’ve really gotten a better sense of what my red flags are in relationships
life changes: I made a large shift in my life in November (career change, health changes, etc) and I feel like I’ve been on a positive trajectory since then. I feel like I’ve experienced significant changes in the energy around me and that if there was a time for love to enter in, it would be now or sometime this year
My Personality: I’m definitely an introverted extrovert. I love to chat and be the life of the party when I’m with friends, but I need my alone time and feel like I’m my truest self when I’m alone. I’m very driven and ambitious, sometimes stubborn, and can be very determined. I am often someone who has been in positions to make difficult decisions and has been in leadership roles. I would like a relationship where I don’t have to take on the burden of that all the time.
Struggles: I feel that my trauma and getting burnt out from dating apps has made me a bit bitter when it comes to meeting new people. I am worried that I am not putting myself out there enough because I am afraid of incurring more violent behavior from men. As a plus size woman, I feel like the dating pool has been narrower for me and I haven’t found the people who have shared my values.
Any advice or insights would mean a lot to me. A huge thank you in advance!
Basically, what the above says. Any help is appreciated or any additional general information that you can glean from my transit chart is appreciated, too.
Can someone explain to me pleasewhy do i have so many sags placements inmy chart for the love of god ?!!
Sorry if I sound inexperienced or redundant, but I'm definitely trying to learn more. Just wanted to ask how important minor aspects are in the natal chart? I'm expanding my research, but trying to not get overwhelmed or confused by so much information at once... the list I was running down also included up to 6° in transits between luminaries, planets but also chiron, ascendant and MC. I'm curious if I should probably omit the extra stuff for now? Thank you for your time and consideration!
I’ve been told throughout my life that people dislike me upon meeting me (even before they have had a conversation with me to get to know me). Is there anything in my chart that indicates why?
Hi all -
Wondering how you use the most recent prenatal lunation and why you use it that way - per ancient authors or another reason.
I noticed that today's new moon in Aquarius bears a striking similarity to the new moon in Aquaurius which happened a few days before I was born. In today's new moon, all of the personal planets are in the same signs with the exception of Jupiter and Saturn, but both Jupiter and Saturn are making important aspects to natal planets.
There are other interesting confluences. In today's new moon, Mercury is at the degree of the lunation in the prenatal syzygy. Today's new moon takes place conjunct my natal Mercury. And my natal Mercury is getting ready to station retrograde by secondary progression. Have attached both the pre-birth lunation and today's new moon charts - not too keen on posting my actual birth chart, but I am a Gemini rising, and today's new moon takes place inside the house currently activated by profection (9-Aquarius). Would appreciate any insights. Thanks!
