I'm a newbie who's interested in attending the NORWAC that will be held next year, in May 2025. Have any of you ever attended? Do you know when registration begins (currently, the website only shows registration information for this year's conference in May)? Any tips about going there? Did you feel it was worth it? I appreciate any feedback you might have. I'm interested in learning more, and especially in being surrounded by people who are also deeply interested in astrology.

I've heard that Scorpio is one of if not the most powerful signs (not a Scorpio) but also that it has it's own phases. Do other signs also have phases or why does Scorpio seem so blessed (which like anything can be a double edged sword) by the heavens?

How does one see if there’s a natal void of course moon in a chart? Is there a certain span of degrees it would fall in? I’m having trouble finding this online…

Just curious.

I am brand new to astrology, trying to wrap my head around how I would go about associating the eclipse to my chart.

Im new to the Astro game but looking to mix my love for data with my parenting skills. I come from a big ecommerce focus so when it comes to "knowing your customer" this is just as important when trying to get to "know your Child!" Astrology helps paint this picture for me in a few ways where I'm now interested in diving deeper. Any recommendations are appreciated 🙏✨

How does one's individual constitution affect their responsiveness to astrological forces?

For example, some people are more sensitive to external physical stimuli, like a noisy urban environment.

How does this work? Could this be related to biology?

I would like to understand more how that works.

Was there a specific event or something that happened in your life which was so unequivocal that there was just no questioning it after that?

Every website I visit gives varying star signs. Which dates do you use?

I've been keeping an eye out, it seems unusual that it's the 31st and no forecast. Has anyone seen any updates, is Chris okay?

What mac friendly software can I use to draw a chart for 700 BC? All the ones I've tried so far don't go past 1 AD at most.

Hello. Does anyone know of an app where you can search for specific transits to see at what points in your life you have already or will experience them?

Hello,

Recently I have become more interested in astrology and I would like to understand it better. However, I'm very bad at researching and thought it would be a good idea to come here and ask for some books and other resources to start learning more about it.

I've done my birth chart and have tried following videos on YouTube and TikTok, but I have no idea what any of what they're saying means. I really need a book that will really dumb it down for me. If you have any recommendations, I would really appreciate. Thank you :)

Hi! I wanted to understand more of how the eclipse affects your natal chart? I never really focused on eclipses before so tbh I'm unsure how to look at it

I'm very curious about this yet I can't find any information.

Wanted to see how to gauge driving a car or any vehicle in astrology.

Which houses rule it? How to find out what kind of vehicles one might own? For example, someone is very wealthy yet never owned one. Meanwhile someone who wasn't rich had a few. How would you explain this phenomenon?

How would you differentiate driving yourself or being driven by a driver or a chauffeur? And what kind of vehicles? Budget luxury etc? People driving planes for non-income generation or leisure purposes?

Hi everyone ☺️, i’m pretty new to astrology and recently i have seen a lot of posts about astrocartography - there was one post on X (twitter) discussing Kim Kardashian’s astrocartography chart.

It really tapped my curiosity, can anyone please explain the concept to me and how do you go about reading it?

Thank you ✌️

What planets and aspects were involved?

I've been trying to track down some really detailed answers to this but find a lot of people don't know or they aren't very forthcoming with why this stuff works.

I kind of assumed astrology played off confirmation bias for a while but after going through readings for a lot of relationships I've had in the past I'm shocked by how accurate yet different each comparison is.

I just have no possible explanation for how the positions of celestial bodies have anything to do with human psychology even though it seems there is a strong connection.

So, if the 7th house is about public or more serious relationships with others, whether enemies or friends, and the 8th house can be associated with the occult (or practicing in it) and the supernatural, would you be able to associate the 2nd house with your public enemies or friends practicing occultic/voodoo, etc stuff on you for whatever reason, using derivative astrology? I'm not sure if that's how it works or if i did the calculation correctly. How would you even interpret a house's planets with the added technique of derivative astrology for that specific house (any examples, perhaps)?

How does the shadow self manifest in a chart? My understanding of the shadow self is those repressed or denied elements of a person (often subconscious) that when integrated into one’s consciousness allows them to feel whole. (Please correct or modify my understanding if I’m off!)

My guess is the 12th house but the 8th house also seems relevant. Intercepted houses might also be at play but not everyone has an intercepted houses in their chart. Maybe a particular aspect? What are your thoughts?

Who knows anything about nessus? How to work around the issues it gives?

So I’m curious to know what signs/placements would indicate someone who’s athletic/brave/mentally tough

If you're using Placidus as your house system in Medical Astrology, are the houses as significant as they may be in the Whole House System?

If you could recommend one single book for somebody who is not an astrology beginner to learn more about concepts like charts beyond the birth chart, life event transit correlations (for example, specific things to look for that indicate pregnancy or marriage or death of a parent), etc, what would you recommend? I prefer classical whole sign astrology.

I was wondering if anyone has mapped it, what sign will be on the other side of the sun, what sign does it point through the earth, and if any planets will be in those signs.

For example, if two planets are in a sextile by sign, but a square by degree, would the sextile soften some of the tension expressed by the square?

Bonus points for anyone who knows where the line of totality was located, and if any historical events happened within it

I've been studying about combustion and I am confused because a lot of informations diverge. Basically, all the material that I have found is of Vedic astrology, and Classic astrology but it diverges also.

1 - Combust can happens between different signs ? Ex: Sun in 28 Capricorn, Venus in 2 Aquarius, both in the same house . This would be a combustion ? I know that Lilly denies that, others say that could be a combustion. I used to think that Vedic astrology considered that combustion could not occur in different signs, but I saw different opinions about it.

2 - Combust would still happen when a planet it's in his own house/domicile or exaltation ? I don't know what to think about because here, the combust planet is in its largest force. However, the sun (mallefic) its the strongest planet. I know Hellenistics considers that a chariot. But u guys considers this a chariot ? Is chariot a real thing ? And if the combusted planet, which is exalted or in its own house or in its domicile, is in a different sign of the sun ? What effect we have on that tipe of case ?

3 - How to interpret aspects with planets that are combusted ? I know that combustion always weaken the planet (its energy goes to the sun). But if the combusted planet is receiving good aspects of other planets (for example if combusted Venus is in trine with Jupiter, or conjunct to moon) this good aspects will be gone ? They just don't exist ? How does this works ? I've read book saying that in this case all good aspects between other planets would be affected and weakned, and the good things would be turned into bad things. Others, said that good aspects make the combusted planet strongest and minimizes combustions effects. I particularly don't like this first version a lot, because around 33% of people has planets combusted (its a common thing between Venus and Mercury) so they are all destined to a miserable life ? No matter what ?

4 - Is that true that in air and water signs, such as Aquarius, Cancer, Pisces, Libra (some people even mentioned Capricorn, I don't know why) because sun is weakened that would be no combustion or combustion would loose its effects ? I don't agree with combustion would not exist because the combusted plane stilll won't be visible. But what about weakening the effects of a combustion ? This is a real thing ?

5 - Why modern astrologers ignores combustion ?
