Mercury Observations: Our Anxieties & Getting Through the Day.
*DO NOT plagiarize my writing or repost on other forms of social media under any circumstances.*
*these are my PERSONAL opinions, ideas & interpretations on how these anxieties could manifest on a surface level. Keep in mind, other aspects, are also factors.* ʕ•́ᴥ•̀ʔっ
Mercury is the messenger of the gods and is the natural ruler of the nervous system;therefore, its location in a person’s chart is a crucial predictor of their nervous system’s health, resilience, and stress tolerance. This also explains why many mercury-dom individuals are often anxious and prone to shaking. Mercury also rules the third house, symbolizing the conscious mind, perception, thinking patterns, relationships, communication, neighborhoods, and family. In contrast to the 12th house, which may reveal our unconscious fears, wherever Mercury is in our charts (or Mercury’s signs such as Gemini and Virgo energies) can reveal anxiety and mild fear that is much more prevalent in our everyday lives. ⋆⁺₊ ⋆⁺₊⋆ ⋆⁺₊ ⋆⁺₊⋆ ⋆⁺₊ ⋆⁺₊⋆ ⋆⁺₊ ⋆⁺₊⋆
Gemini in the natal chart might represent areas where we tend to over-explain and share excessive amounts of information.It may also reveal parts of our lives where there is frequently so much gossip or where it feels impossible to escape someone’s opinions. Finally, it may also indicate where you might initiate gossip or drama or engage in it.Since it’s mercury ruled it can also show where you tend to be nervous, for ex: gemini in the 3h might feel anxious (gemini) when driving (3h).
For instance, with Gemini in the fourth house,you may discover that your family is frequently talking about you or they love to gossip in general. You could overshare many details regarding family drama or issues with others. Or Gemini in the eighth house,where people comment on your body, sex life, and even finances. You might be continuously questioned about these topics. With Gemini in the seventh house,you may find that people are always reaching out to you and being nosy about your romantic or business relationships. However, you might also overshare regarding your love life and relationships, so be mindful of who you vent to. Gemini in the second house might cause you to reveal too much about your finances, resources, and possessions. People may discuss your possessions (e.g., “Oh, see how she has this or look at his new car! ”),OR they may question your beliefs and what you stand for. Gemini in the sixth house may cause individuals in your everyday life to ask you intrusive questions or always appear to be scrutinizing your actions. WithGemini in the third house,your siblings may continually pry into your affairs (or you may gossip with them as well lmao), and your neighbors may be very nosy, peering through the blinds, criticizing you, etc.
On the other hand, Virgo could show where we are trying to keep things together. But we find that our need for perfectionism or even keeping up a specific image makes us feel even more frustrated or stressed. These problems could also lead to health issues or poor management of your routine/ care for your body due to that stress.
For example, Virgo in the 7th house and you could be very picky when it comes to picking your partners and be concerned with the image the relationship projects into the world. Virgo in the 10th housecould overthink when it comes to their reputation and career or even be cautious and concerned about the opinions that the figures of authority in their lives have of them. Virgo in the 1st housecould be very critical about their appearance and what people think of them off first impressions. Virgo in the 6th house could be particular in their routine, in general, and at work. They could also analyze or criticize almost every aspect of their physical body. Virgo in the 9th house could be very strict with themselves about their philosophies; the thought of their pre-existing beliefs being brought into question could make them panic. If in higher education, they could strive to be as organized as possible and have the best grades. Virgo in the 12th house, and you could constantly contemplate your fears, worry about every little thing you did throughout the day, or even berate yourself for your mistakes right before bed. Virgo in the 3rd houseand you could be very critical about the relationship you have with your siblings and family members, constantly wanting to keep up a well-liked, orderly and polite image in your neighborhood and within your loved ones and peers.
SinceMercury governs the central nervous system,its placement may suggest where we require specific reassurance or tend to be more readily overwhelmed by these concerns than in other areas of our lives.
For instance, Mercury in the 12th house, and you could find yourself lying awake at night thinking about your fears. There could be a sensation of feeling voiceless or like there is no point in speaking up for yourself since you feel like no one will listen to you anyway. So you would need a lot of reassurance that your fears and concerns are valid. And that your words are as well. Mercury in the 10th house, and you could care about what the authority figures in your life have to say, or you could worry about your reputation and career choices. So you would need reassurance that you don’t have to micromanage your image or constantly have to be ten steps ahead with your life choices. Mercury is in the 11th house, and you could get very nervous when it comes to the opinions of your community and friends and what they have to say about you and your goals. So you would need reassurance that you are free to be whoever you want to be without the need to ask for permission or live up to this image for others. Mercury in the 5th house, and you could feel anxious about nurturing your hobbies, inner child, and romantic interests. You could need reassurance that you are free to express yourself in the ways that seem most genuine to you, not to please others. Mercury in the 7th house,and you could feel like you have to be there to listen and consistently communicate in your relationships, both platonic and romantic. You would need reassurance that you can take time to set boundaries in your forms of communication so that you don’t have to feel like you’re hesitating or beating around the bush all the time. Mercury in the 9th house and you could become anxious when reflecting on your personal philosophies or beliefs, asking yourself am I truly standing up for whats right? You would need reassurance that no one is born knowing where they stand on certain topics or issues, especially societal and cultural ones. You create your own through series of mistakes, learning and unlearning.
You can use your mercury aspects, if any, whether they are harmonious or challenging, as ways to release that energy most beneficially to you; some examples:
Mercury-Sun aspects: When you live your life in the most authentic way possible (sun), you will find that you would need less reassurance from others and can communicate (mercury) in a much more direct, confident, and honest manner.
Mercury-Saturn aspects: When you find balance and try to be more stable, structured, and disciplined in your life (Saturn) without it becoming restrictive or limiting, you will find you get much less backlash from others, and you gain much more respect when you communicate (mercury). You can be truthful without being cruel, and in turn, people will seek your wisdom instead of resenting it.
Mercury-Venus aspects: The more you invest in your image, beauty, fortune, relationships, and pleasures (venus), the easier it will be to be diplomatic, charming, and relatable when speaking and relating (mercury) to others. You could benefit from writing poetry as well.
Mercury-Mars aspects:the more you learn how to be a powerful and assertive leader in a healthy manner (mars), the easier it will be to mobilize people or lead your peers with your words (mercury) and actions (mars) without being looked at as being overbearing (mars). you could be an amazing motivational speaker.
Mercury-Jupiter aspects: the more you begin to embrace your out-of-the-box ideas and visions (Jupiter), the easier it will be to communicate them and share them with others (mercury) as long as you reflect and make sure the energy remains insightful without becoming unrealistic.
Mercury-Moon aspects: The more you practice and reflect on becoming an emotionally intelligent individual, the easier it will be to comfort (moon) yourself and others without your words (mercury) being harsh or critical in the moments you are feeling overwhelmed. you could also be great at writing poetry, short stories and songs.
Mercury-Pluto aspects: The more you pride yourself on your deep and complex mind and nature (pluto) without demonizing it or behaving through an extreme perspective, the easier it will be to transform (Pluto) your views (mercury) and also the mindset of others without it being seen as threatening or dogmatic. Those with squares and oppositions should learn that there is also a time and place for their comments as not everyone will take your bluntness so lightly (I say this as someone with a mercury square pluto aspect, and my mouth has gotten me in trouble many times lmfaaaoooo).
Mercury-Uranus aspects: The more you channel your inventive (Uranus) and thrilling (Mercury) mental energy into more practical forms of expression, the more you will feel able to express your genuine self without feeling censored. Embrace the chaos without allowing it to overwhelm you.
Mercury-Neptune aspects: the more you accept that you see the world from different perspectives & hone your intuition and spirituality (Neptune) the easier it will be to enlighten others through your ideas and words (Mercury). The key here is to be able to nurture this imaginative energy without it spiraling into an illusion. another placement that can benefit from poetry or songwriting, practicing tarot and art that nurtures your spiritual side.
There are so many concepts that Venus-Saturn aspects can represent and how they can manifest themselves. For example, it can mean you are interested in someone older than you when it comes to romance. Or sometimes you can be the older person in the relationship. You could have an interest in vintage items or products of quality. There could be an exquisite and refined manner to your demeanor. The list goes on.
In their early years, though, Venus-Saturn placements can feel like the ugly duckling. I’m not suggesting they were unattractive, but they could have viewed themselves as such or felt uneasy about their features, even those with the harmonious aspects. There may have been a sense of awkwardness or restriction (Saturn) in their sense of style, appearance, or charm(Venus). Or a dread(Saturn)of Venus-related issues, such as flirting, dressing up, dating, romance, creativity, or even the presence monetary and financial difficulties. These fears could have led to isolation, whether the individual did it to themselves or felt that way in their relationships.
Those with Venus-Saturn aspects, however, age beautifully and gracefully over time. As these individuals get older, their skin may appear clear and wrinkle-free, and their bone structure may become more prominent. When you’re feeling down this placement can serve as as a reminder that life is not done showing you how much better it can get—even the squares and oppositions. Squares can suggest friction; however, it also dictates action. And oppositions represent a push or pull moment, it’s a challenging or “hard” aspect because the energies are at odds. It represents a sense of polarity. But once efforts are made to find more balance and redirect harsh aspects, Saturn will reward.
Therefore, those with Venus-Saturn aspects should refrain from speaking negatively about themselves or bringing themselves down. Saturn willalways reward effort, even if it is awkward or you don’t get the hang of things; the more you experience and explore in life regarding your relationships, appearance, and personal preferences, the more you will begin to comprehend how to fully step into your truth. Even if it’s just baby steps or you stumble a bit, experimenting is always worth a try. At first you could feel a paralyzing fear, but once you have reached maturity, you may attain outstanding professional achievement and recognition. You will continue to improve year after year.
If you have this placement you will notice that as you age, you stand taller, speak with greater certainty, and have better connections or fortune. In addition, you will begin to feel more confident in the way you dress and wear the clothes you could have felt too insecure to wear when you were younger.
With this aspect, consider how your tendency to restrict yourself (Saturn)impacts your relationships and appearance(Venus)by examining the sign and in what house the planets are located in.
For example, if you have a Venus-Saturn aspect with Venus in the 7th house and Saturn in the 3rd, then look at how you restrict(Saturn)your self-expression and how you communicate(3h) and how that directly affects your relationship with others (7h). For example, are you holding your tongue? Are you repeatedly self-sabotaging (Saturn)yourself in the forms you communicate and express your versatility (3h)?
Once you start nurturing those parts of yourself and committing to expressing the most genuine aspects of yourself, even if it’s awkward or not consistent at first, you will find that you improve when it comes to venus-related matters and your self-confidence as well.
pluto-ascendant aspects, pluto in the 10th house, pluto in the 1st house, Scorpio rising, Scorpio moon, pluto- sun aspects, pluto-moon aspects, pluto-venus aspects, 8th house placements (especially moon, sun and Venus).
these individuals give off, “you can never kill me. I will never fall” energy. ⚔️
Attempts made against them to destroy or harm them ultimately fail. It will simply replenish them over time. They are ultimately compensated for their pain. They have an overwhelming need to climb up to the top, whether they’re covered in sweat or their hearts ache from the journey. even after being shunned, defamed and slandered by the public they will not crumble. similar to the way a snake sheds its skin, they become new over and over again. and it’s glorious to watch them. To change, some people require a catalyst.. someone to guide them through it. But these individuals don’t need anything at all. Off willpower alone they transform.
Often times, they are not even aware of just how powerful they are believe it or not. They could stare at their peers in confusion, wondering, why are they looking at me like that? I had to get back up. I didn’t have a choice. And in many ways it can feel like they didn’t for them. They can’t remember a period when they didn’t experience some sort of upheaval in their lives.
There could have been weeks or even years where they lived in survival mode. After spending so much time in the shadows, they don’t even understand how dazzling and beautiful they are until they emerge from them. When they walk into their full power and not only recognize it but also comprehend how to utilize it in the healthiest and most successful manner, get out of their way. Or you will be brought to your knees by their success.
Wherever Saturn is located in the natal chart, it might seem like an enormous weight on our shoulders, yet even if we wanted to get rid of it, it would somehow feel wrong. This is due to the weight, the pressure, and the expectations that have been imposed on us from an early age. Saturn is wise, but his hand is heavy, and it might seem as if we are collapsing under him when he clutches our faces forcefully and demands more. We may feel as if we are being held hostage, and at some point in our lives, whether early on or much later, we surrender. In spite of how much we try to fight back against the world and all the pain it has caused us, certain scars are ours to bear, no matter how much we scream, weep, or detest it. Saturn is the physical representation of the sense of commitment and duty culminating in the heavens when we all drew our first breaths. At first, it feels like the agony is raw in our hands, and there is no reason for us to endure. However, Saturn will emerge from the shadows to reveal to us how powerful we have been all along.
Saturn went retrograde on the 4th, and it will end on the 23rd of October. Saturn retrogrades once a year, spending roughly one-third of the year retrograde. These retrogrades typically last four and a half months. It’s nothing to be afraid of, but it’s also not something that should be taken lightly. Saturn retrograde periods are also excellent for revisiting pattern or structure and determining how something can be built to last the test of time.
Wherever Saturn is stationed, those are the themes on which we should reflect and focus. Saturn, for example, is currently retrograde in my 12th house. Our unconscious fears and trauma are ruled by the 12th house. Many memories have surfaced as I am prompted to reflect on the coping mechanisms I currently use. Saturn is asking, “Can you do more?” Are you making an honest effort? It’s more complicated than learning a lesson for being “bad” or being rewarded for being “good.” It’s about facing the facts and trying not to grimace or flee when the truth, no matter how annoying or frustrating, comes to the surface.
We sometimes try to cope by sugar coating, rewriting our reality, and dismissing current (and unhealthy) behavior. At the time it can feel easier. It can make you feel safer. But that comfort is merely temporary. Bad shit happens all the time. Life can be difficult. But the good news is that we are brave enough to recognize that. After all, we are all here right now, despite having endured incredible adversity in each of our complex and very individual lives. Respond to your fears by drawing logical conclusions. And also by giving yourself grace. The point isn’t to punish yourself. It’s to make things easier for yourself in the end. Sometimes the only way out is through.
“Only a few find the way, some don’t recognize it when they do – some… don’t ever want to.” - Lewis Carroll
Neptune: Fading into Obscurity
*do not plagiarize my writing or repost on other forms of social media under any circumstances. These are merely my personal opinions, notes and observations. *
I was reading the Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk, and this paragraph on losing your Body reminded me of Neptune:
“The lack of self-awareness in victims of chronic childhood trauma is sometimes so profound that they cannot recognize themselves in a mirror. Brain scans show that this is not the result of mere inattention: the structures of self-recognition may be knocked out along with structures related to self-experience.”
I am in no way equating or reducing childhood trauma to astrological placements. However, I was reminded of Neptune’s influence as a person interested in astrology. Like the other gas giants in our solar system, Neptune doesn’t have much of a solid surface to live on and has the most extreme and bizarre weather in the Solar System. It experiences massive storms with powerful winds. Its atmosphere features revolving patches of darkness and clouds that undergo rapid transformations.
It makes sense to consider how rapidly Neptune’s spiritual, creative, and imaginative energy can transform into an illusion, delusion, or lie. Neptune can generate a fog that obscures our view, leaving us vulnerable to manipulation. However, it can also reveal instances in which we deceive others and even ourselves. The mist can obstruct our view of other individuals and leave us unable to determine their true identities. But it can also envelop us, detaching us from our sense of self and leaving us with bodies that feel light, as if we can never rightly plant our feet on the ground.
As someone who is Neptune-dominant and did not have the best childhood, I had always thought that not recognizing yourself in the mirror was normal—feeling estranged from oneself because practically all of one’s time was spent molding yourself into the person your parents expected you to be. I’ve also seen that for somePisces risings or Neptune in the first house individuals, the mother or family may have viewed the birth of that child as someone who would heal a previous wound—already born into the world, hoping that your presence may alleviate suffering.
For example, I am a Pisces ascendant, and my brother passed away before my mother gave birth to me. Growing up, my family would tell me how fortunate I was to be able to alleviate some of that agony for my mother, but at times it felt more like a burden. My closest friend’s younger brother is also a Pisces rising; he is the rainbow baby, as his mother had a miscarriage before he was born. As the youngest and only boy, in the mothers eyes, he was a source of healing for the family and is her treasure. However, from the child’s point of view, a statement with that much weight and expectation can still be quite challenging to hear, even if they are said with the best intentions.
This expectation of filling an emotional void can also be applied to the other water-rising signs to a certain extent. For instance, Scorpio ascendants may have been born at a period when a family member passed away or when their mother underwent an intensive and drastic transformation. For example, my cousin gave birth to her child after her mother’s death and at a chaotic and perilous time; her baby is a Scorpio rising with Mars in the first house. Scorpio ascendants may feel as though their mothers or parental figures attempted to feel more secure by dominating them, which is unfair to the child. On the other hand, Cancer ascendants may have been born during a period of profound emotional transformation in the mother. The authority figure may have anticipated the child to restore peace or security to the household in some manner. However, this may come at the expense of the child’s mental health and with unreasonable expectations.
But anyways, back to Neptune. In the book, the author emphasizes that you can only be fully in control of your body if you acknowledge its visceral reality in all of its dimensions. We must feel comfortable and secure with all of our potential feelings. But then, how can you be expected to look in the mirror and know who you are if you are not permitted to build your sense of self? If you never got the chance to process those emotions? They do not just go away. When Neptune is involved, they dissolve into us, into areas of our life.Moon-Neptune,and they can merge into our relationships with our mothers or caretakers. Venus-Neptune,and we find that our perspectives of relationships can quickly become skewed, leaving us heartbroken. Mars-Neptuneand our anger could unravel us and leave us completely confused. When it comes to houses, Neptune in the 7th and we can become disillusioned by our relationships. Neptune in the 3rd house, and it feels like communication is always cut short, like a faulty signal, where you speak and others can’t seem to hear you. The energy can manifest in dozens of different ways.
Neptune can grant us the potential to produce the most hauntingly beautiful art from our sorrow. When we bring to life what has been lingering in our imagination, we prompt others to contemplate. If you have an aspect to the moon, you could be an extraordinary songwriter or poet. Aspect to Venus, and when you create art about love, it is magnificent; you might also be an excellent makeup artist. Mars in aspect to Neptune stimulates the vitality and drive of others, as well as your own.
Chaos can ensue, though, if we are not cautious and continue to dwell in our fantasy worlds without attempting to live and actively participate in the material and physical world. Our comfort zones can just as easily hold us hostage instead of provide us with safety. Especially when we try to dive in headfirst. This can lead to drug or alcohol abuse or even self-harm. Trapped in the fog, hoping for the best despite reality… denying reality.
Inthe Astrological Neptune and the Quest for Redemption, Liz Greene explores the complex nature of Neptune and states:
“Neptune can symbolize the highest and most exalted manifestations of love, grace and creative vision of which human beings are capable in those moments when the earth bound illusion of separateness is replaced by recognition of ultimate unity. Equally, Neptune can embody the most desperate and destructively devouring impulses of which human beings are capable, when they have not dealt with the fear of loneliness and death. Which is true? Probably both. Sadly, it is often those individuals with the greatest imaginative gifts who, at the same time that they desperately long to manifest their potential, sabotage with the left hand what they seek with the right.”
12th house placements, especially moons and mercury, are the people that give really great advice and then someone is like “eh, yeah I’ll think about it” but then someone else repeats the EXACT same thing the 12th house person just said and the person is like “wooow! great advice!” stop fucking ignoring the 12th house placements when they speak also I’m gonna talk a lot about 12h placements again in this post.
Virgo placements, especially Virgo moons and Virgo Venus will get turned off by the most minor things and it’s always something very specific. They’ll be like “yeah i can’t go on a second date anymore I saw his buttcrack when he got out the car”
also my virgomoon bestie venting about a dude she’s talking to “idk the way he pronounces certain words grosses me out” I screamed
also the way in which mercurials (Gemini and Virgo placements) start vibrating once they drink coffee, you know like those toys where you turn the little key in the back and they start moving… like girl… be calm. Drink some water baby.
mercurialscould also be the type to have certain compulsions, running your hands through your hair, constantly shaking one leg or cracking your knuckles, twisting your fingers into your shirt, turning your ring over and over or touching your necklace, chewing or clicking a pen, tapping your fingers on the desk, biting your nails etc. Some could even smoke because they have an oral fixation (I could also apply this oral fixation to Taurusplacements as well)
Saturnians (saturn aspects, aqua placements, cap placements) also have this penchant for sitting very still lmfaoo they remind me of lions. My friend has Saturn in the first house, and she will sit very still with her back straight and when you’re talking to her she pays a lot of attention to you. Same with my Capricorn sun friends. I think they’re amazing at listening to you. And when they feel fully comfortable (which will take some time so be patient with them) they will open up as well. labeling saturnian placements as boring is wrong, like maybe they just don’t trust you idk.
Sagittarius placements, especially moons and risings, really get turned off when you’re not willing to go on their crazy adventures with them. After a while they’ll just stop asking you (which is understandable but then other times it’s like im sorry i don’t wanna skydive with you and land on top of a cliff and then jump naked into the sea for a swim).
earth moons get turned off by loud ass people. Earth moons are the people that in high school looked at the ones yelling & having loud convos at 7am in disgust lmfaooo. I think earth moons are also the people that politely tell their guests to go when its past 9pm haha
air moons can be very charismatic. these are the people that you’re with them and when you turn around they’re having the most interesting conversation with a stranger. Its only when they feel like it though bc when they’re not in the mood… they’re really not in the mood.
I’ve noticed that a lot of water moons have had to re-parent themselves in some ways & their parents or family used them to vent emotionally to them constantly. I bet its very draining. WATER MOONS GET BEHIND ME I will make eye contact with you across the room and notice when your social battery has died and you want alone time.
I think moon in the cadent houses can also get overwhelmed easily or just need breaks from people (moon in the 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th house). The cadent houses symbolize aspects of life that are characterized by human relationships and numerous transitional events. People with the moon in these houses may feel pressured to continually perform and therefore unable to change their minds on some issues pertaining to home life, values, roots, tradition, and coping. These individuals should be allowed to develop their own social identities. And if no one else is giving you this space, give it to yourself with grace.
fire moons get turned off by boring people. if you don’t have them feeling energized and excited to see u they’ll be like yeah imma head out. That’s why I think it’s so cute when fire moons date each other. I like watching the chaos and fun (from a distance)
water placements not speaking and instead staring at their crush until they notice them and form a telepathic and spiritual connection
fire placements bullying their crush to see if their crush isn’t boring and can handle them
earth placements consistent acts of service for their crush that they pretend is no big deal but hope their crush will acknowledge them
air placements debating with their crush so they can have a good time but also secretly analyze just how smart they are
who has experience dating someone who has their mars in your sister sign? My friend is a taurus mars dating a scorpio mars and she’s living her best life. I bet the energy can be very complimentary and challenging at the same time. it sounds like a good time So does that mean my leo mars has to find an aqua mars? I’m scared but also intrigued haha
4h, 8h and 12h synastry is mentioning something briefly or making a comment and much later it gets brought up as a problem or concern. And it can leave one person wondering, like “wow was it really that serious? It was just a small comment. I can’t believe they remembered that.” But with this synastry what you say to each other can have an intense and much deeper effect in comparison to other lighter synastry.
If you’re moving somewhere new you can check the synastry you have with the countries birth chart. Its interesting to see how that energy manifests, for example where I use to live the countries mercury was in my 6th house and the people were very social (mercury) in my daily life (6h), constantly greeting each other and chatting, whether at the market or neighbors. (you could find the birth chart of the country online. You could also do a relocation chart. I also made a post on astrocartography as well) ✈️
whereverMars is in the chart is where you need to stop bullshitting. You need to be assertive in those areas or it’s going to suck feeling unsatisfied at the end of the day bc you didn’t stand up for yourself. mars in the 6th house and you need to *kim k voice* get off your fucking ass and work. I’m kidding but with mars in the 6th house, don’t be afraid to be assertive in the work place, when setting goals with your body or working out, or just standing up for yourself throughout your daily routine, the day is YOURS so conquer it. Mars in the 7th house, and you need to be direct when you speak to people because when you’re not ppl are just gonna try to twist your words. Mars in the 1st house & sometimes ik it’s nice being humble and being the bigger person but don’t let people play with your accomplishments and image either. Mars in 8th house and assert your needs when it comes to sex and also the way in which you handle your finances. Mars in the 11th house *squints* do NOT LET people try to bully you, especially in group settings when they’re trying to show off so stand ur ground. Mars in the 12th house and do not allow people to project onto you and take their anger out on you, INTERRUPT THEIR ASS MID SENTENCE. You get the gist though.
whereverVenus is in our chart can also show where we are assertive but in a much more “diplomatic” way. This could be where we can silently take note until we have all the pieces together. It’s where we don’t reveal our hand. For example, Venus in the 7th house will watch for peoples reactions and word choice in their relationships. These are the people that can tell others to fuck off and still sound polite. Venus in the 8th house could see right through peoples bullshit and not let on a word but for sure the other person will FEEL it. Venus in the 1st house could be good at pretending like they’re a ditz in a way, like letting other people underestimate them only to then prove them wrong. Venus in the 4th house could make others feel at home, could make them feel comfortable enough to reveal their secrets. These are just examples/ thoughts.
duringAriesmercury transits & mercury-mars aspects in transit you should be very careful with driving. One my friends got in an horrible car accident during a transit where Mars (accidents) was conjunct her natal mercury (cars). she’s okay now though thank god. I’ve also got into an accident during a mercury-uranustransit in my chart but it was also during a mercury retrograde. If you have this in your natal chart, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t drive, just take more precaution, same with Pluto or Saturn in the 3rd house. Those with mars-Uranus should be careful when working with machinery, using knives etc, you can easily hurt yourself. I have a Mars-Uranus aspect and I use to work in a restaurant and the amount of times I was near close to chopping a finger off pls.
people with Gemini VenusandMercury-Venusaspects will write the most beautiful and poetic shit and be like oh that? I was just playing like Shut-up and publish the book please.
ppl with Venus in the 10th house could find that people love to take pictures of them or in events they tend to draw in attention, appearing in photos and not even knowing. They could also be very photogenic.
the planets you have in the 12th house can manifest its energy through your dreams. Neptune in the 12h and you could feel like you have dreams that predict the future or can send you warnings. You find hidden messages in your dream. Mars in the 12th house and if you internalize your anger throughout the day you could have violent dreams where you’re fighting and standing up for yourself. Uranus in the 12th house and as you’re falling asleep, you could suddenly have epiphanies. Moon in the 12th house and your emotions could be released at night, you could have dreams of confrontation with someone who hurt you emotionally. You could cry at night as well to release what you held in throughout the day. Sun in the 12th house and you think about how you want to present yourself at night, you lay awake and fall asleep dreaming of how you truly want to represent yourself in your daily life.
speaking of the sun in the 12th house I was reading a book called the 12th house by Karen Hanmaker-Zondag and I was blown away when she stated that someone with a sun in the 12th house could have had a father who was overshadowed or was talked badly about by the mother. In a sense that figure of authority isn’t quite clear in the household. It’s like hello? Whose the adult here? That made so much sense to me!!! I know someone with 12h cancer sun opposite his 6h cap moon and both the son and father are def intimidated more by the mother who puts her foot down.
^ with that logic, Saturn in the 12th house could represent a father figure as well that was talked down badly about the family or called a deadbeat or just been accused of being emotionally or physically absent. Moon in the 12th and your mother could have been talked about a lot. She could have been found intimidating and emotionally absent as well and could have clashed a lot with your father.
In the book, she also recommended that 12th house placements keep a dream journal, which sounds like good advice. She stated, “Insight into and understanding ones dreams can provide powerful support in everyday life. Also in any situation in which we are very relaxed and not under any stress -but receptive and free from the desire to do things- is a good opportunity for experiencing the power of the 12th house.”
I think if you want to do some shadow work and reflection, focusing on the angular houses is important as well (the 1st, 4th, 7th and 10th house). Looking at your Chiron, Pluto, moon and Saturn placement can also provide you with a lot of insight.
Chiron might make us feel as if we are looking into a broken mirror, where we cannot see what others see. And the separation can be distressing. For instance, with Chiron in the 1st house & no matter how many compliments you receive and how many times you say “thank you,” you feel like you don’t completely comprehend or realize the beauty or greatness they express about you. Chiron in the 9th house might make it feel futile to connect with your culture, religion, or spirituality, as if you will never know “the truth.” Chiron in the 6th house could make you feel confined in your daily routine, as if the universe is making your decisions for you, despite the fact that you have complete control. With Chiron in the 4th house, you may be urgently attempting to restore the relationships in your home and with your family, but you may feel as though nothing will ever change. Wherever Chiron resides, we must be willing to view things differently, even if we are initially skeptical, weary, hurt, or disheartened. Just try anyway, as there is nothing to lose when confronting our deepest pains. We can only learn something from it. Chiron reminds me of the quote, “Face what you’re most afraid of and you will be free.”
Also, I’ve made a post on Scorpio through the houses, how other people can sabotage us & what we should keep private. But without a doubt, looking at the 8th house,whereScorpio is in your chart and Pluto,can also provide insight into our fears. Plutonians(Scorpio placements, 8th house placements, pluto aspecting personal planets) can be very good at self-sabotaging. Speaking from my sun-pluto aspect, sometimes it feels like “well, you don’t have to ruin this for me because I will destroy it myself” energy, especially when I was younger.
cont: I try to note down ways in which I can redirect the energy by looking at the sign, the houses, etc. But sometimes, we just need to learn about what one thing means and start reflecting on it before learning how to cope more healthily. For example, 8th house in Libra, write down and reflect on your fears with partnerships and relationships and your image. Pluto in the 2nd house and what worries do you hold about your confidence, the way you assert yourself, and your relationship with your money. Do you feel like you have to be frugal? Or Scorpio in the 7th house, do you self-sabotage when it comes to your relationships? Scorpio, in the 3rd house, do you focus intensely on finding the more profound meaning in everyone’s words that you forget what’s right in front of you? Believe people when they show you who they are. Again, these are just examples of how it can manifest.
*these were all just random observations, ideas and opinions based on personal experiences. take them with a grain of salt as placements and aspects can manifest themselves in numerous ways.*
Depending on our natal chart, astrocartography is the study of how the positions of the planets affect the energies we feel in various places we live or visit. You may determine which line you reside on by searching up “astro.com astrocartography” and inserting your information (it’s easier to look at it on a laptop but your phone can work as well). When you click on the lines you can see what lines you live on or nearby and what they mean.
Here’s an example, with the lines and the explanation of living on the Neptune line:
On top of those explanations, there are numerous websites that also provide additional meanings to what each line and its corresponding planet and its energy will bring into your life. Other useful websites such as this one discuss what it’s like living on the ac, dc, mc, and ic line.
However, overall I found this response on Quora to be very straightforward and accurate on the planetary lines. The authors name is included in the screenshots as well. ✈️
Personal notes & opinions
You can use astrocartography to choose the ideal trip destinations. For example, do you want to feel beautiful? Enjoy the scenery? Then look where you have your Venus line! Or you are in search of where you can have the most success with your career, then look at where your MC, aka midheaven line, is. It’s easy once you sit down with it and is just fun to study.
However, learning about astrocartography also provided me with a sense of comfort when I understood that there are occasionally other forces at play that can impede our objectives or plans. I believe that we can always be the master of our fate, but without a doubt, our environment can make accomplishing our goals a bit more complicated or, at times, infinitely more accessible.
I used to live on my sun and descendant (DC) line before I ever heard about astrocartography. I felt entirely supported by my family, particularly my male family members, such as father figures (sun), felt very confident, and dressed up a lot (Leo energy, haha). I honestly did feel like the star of the show and incredibly energized. I got a lot of compliments and could feel and see peoples interest in me. The sun line, Venus line, and Jupiter line are often seen as advantageous lines on which to reside. Additionally, you can examine your chart to determine what is activated on these lines. Consider, for instance, the sign of your Venus, the house it resides in, and the aspects it forms if you intend to live on your Venus line. Another example, if you were to live on your Jupiter line, the aspects of Jupiter in your natal chart would be activated as well, so if you have squares and oppositions learn about that energy first.
After moving with my family to another country, it made so much sense when I found that I am living on my mars line. I realized the continual pushback I was getting. Without a doubt, the energy of Mars may provide vitality, drive, and ambition. But it can also bring hostility, car accidents, arguing, aggression, and unwanted male attention, among other adverse consequences. And it feels like my life has been on fast forward for the past year. There have been a lot of achievements but so much conflict as well. And it feels good to know that I can fucking do it, but every accomplishment feels like I have to fight tooth and nail. Aspects in regards to mars in my natal chart were also activated, for example with my natal Mars-Uranus aspect I have noticed that I have been a bit more impulsive (Uranus) with my energy, assertiveness and even anger (mars) in my current home.
I discussed this with a friend who was born and raised on her Chiron line. As the previous screenshot demonstrates, living on your Chiron line can also indicate emotional, bodily, and mental trauma, particularly throughout childhood. Living on her Chiron line has wounded her in numerous ways, but she is resilient as a Scorpio dominant individual and wise beyond her years. So that’s why if you’re living on your Mars, Saturn, Pluto, or Chiron line and if you’ve been there for years or grew up there, nobody can tell you shit, okay You’ve gone through the worst, and now you know where you can go to discover what the world has to offer! ✈️
I can’t wait to one day be able to travel more and see what it’s like being on my Venus line. I miss feeling like a queen on my Sun line. But, on the other hand, being on my Mars line teaches me how to be more resilient and work smarter and not harder.
note: It is not necessary to live EXACTLY on a line to experience its energy. When viewing the lines on astro.com, you have the ability to zoom into a specific place, and clicking the “show details” checkbox will display the “power lines.” These lines are close enough for you to still feel their influence. The website states, “Your point of contact need not necessarily be exactly along a line but can be experienced within 200 km. The closer you are to the line, the greater it's influence.”
“We are born with the bare bones of certain innate predispositions and expectations, but our experiences as children add layers upon layers of flesh to these.”
- Howard Sasportas
We can all agree that a firm foundation must be established before anything can be safe and secure in our lives. There must be a sense of consistency and assurance that what we are cultivating, be it relationships or habits, is rooted in emotional, spiritual, and mental wellbeing. And when it doesn’t, it’s easy to see how our structures can tremble and eventually fall apart over time. When we begin to reflect on our childhoods, our foundations typically become unsteady as we are unearthing memories and experiences that we subconsciously could have buried for years. Were you allowed to decipher your values? Did your parents make you feel safe? Were they consistent in their routines? Did they hold high expectations for you and expect you to behave in specific ways that they were not doing themselves?
The 4th house is the nadir, the lowest point in our chart. It represents our home, value, family, roots, upbringing, heritage, ancestry, and traditions. It’s our private life, and even when we try to explain just how chaotic or bad things were growing up to others, it can feel like others don’t fully understand because it’s hidden from their perception. The 4th house is, “well, honestly, you had to have been there to understand,” energy. It’s opposite the very visible house of our career and reputation. We can see that Moon-Saturn Axis come to life as you cannot have stable and prosperous structures (10h) without emotional wellness (4h).
“The 4th house represents where we go when we settle back into ourselves- the inner center- where our ‘I’ returns to rest before launching into activity again. It is the base of operations from which we meet life. As opposed to our public side, the 4th house describes what we are like deep inside. Becoming conscious of the origins of our attitudes allows for the possibility of changing them. Delving into the 4th house, which shows the archetypes activated in the early home life between ourselves and the parent in question, can greatly aid this process.”
When you look at the sign and planets in the 4th house, you can see both the positive and negative ways in which energy in your upbringing could have manifested.
For example, Gemini in the 4th house, could have parents who valued education’s importance and encouraged the child to learn. Still, on the other hand, the child could have felt silenced, like they were not able to fully express their opinions or originality, especially if planets such as Saturn are in the 4th house. The parent could have valued the child’s education and wit, but never when used to critique their forms of parenting. Pisces in the 4th house and the parent could have tried to be welcoming and nurturing but in very unhealthy ways. The way they parented could have completely dissolved boundaries between the parent and child. This could have profoundly impacted the child’s psychological development as the child now feels responsible for the parent, knowing they cannot entirely rely on them. Aquarius in the 4th house and the child could have faced rejection from the parental figures, feeling like the only way to “keep the peace” would be to conform and be like everybody else in the family, suffering in silence. Leo in the 4th house and your parents could have been overly dramatic and self-centered, more focused on how others saw the family in an unreasonable manner. Virgo in the 4th house and your parents could have been overly critical and emotionally unavailable. They could have spent more time judging others instead of focusing on self reflection.Aries in the 4th houseand there could have been constant chaos in the family and with siblings, your emotional needs could have been met with impatience.
cont:Sagittarius in the 4th houseand the parental figures could have been shallow in response to the child’s emotional needs, leaving the child feeling like their caretakers are too flighty and inconsistent. Cancer in the 4th house and the child could have felt like there was never a right time to express their needs or feelings; the parental figures could have been very touchy, moody, or constantly nagging. Capricorn in the 4th house and the child could have always been expected to be polite, mature, and responsible, never given the room to scream, cry, or truly express themselves. Scorpio in the 4th house and the parent could have been controlling and vindictive, making the child feel like they have to keep a tight leash on their own emotions, as their parent’s emotions were already overwhelming them a lot. Taurus in the 4th house, and the child could have always felt roadblocked when communicating emotional needs with the parent or family. It could have been expected in the family to pretend things never happened or not speak of them. Libra in the 4th house, and the child could have felt like there was always this need to keep up this image within the family and pretend like everything is lovely, fair, and peaceful even through the most hectic moments.
It is never too late to find healing from harsh or neglectful childhood experiences. When you confront these events, you will find the freedom necessary to establish yourself in other areas of your life and commit to holding space for your emotional needs. When you examine your fourth house with a magnifying lens, you can determine how to redirect this energy. For example, Gemini Saturn in the 4th house and you could feel like your voice and self-expression (Gemini) were silenced (Saturn). So now you must allow yourself to express yourself in all aspects of your life; even if at first it feels awkward or you’re scared to say the “wrong thing,” say it anyway. Practice journaling, writing poetry and stories, and creating with your hands in general (Gemini) to boost your voice. And watch how over time (Saturn), you will feel more confident and at peace. Suppose you find yourself running into people committed to misunderstanding you, yet these are people who cannot name one thing regarding your passion and talents, and ideas. In that case, conversations with them do not truly matter, do they?
Howard Sasportas emphasizes that the 4th house suggests the conditions surrounding our second half of life and that “What is most deep within us comes out at the end. The 4th house, like our past, always catches up to us."
However, it is essential to recognize that the collapse of these structures should not be viewed as a defeat.It is okay when relationships or opportunities do not work out. Especially if, at the time, we were using coping methods that were no longer effective or healthy in our lives, and we didn’t know it yet. But afterward, we have the opportunity to apply our knowledge and improve things for next time. Being a healthy version of oneself is not synonymous with being a perfect version of oneself. This is impossible and ineffective. Healing means making room for all the previous versions of yourself and honoring them, accepting them, loving them and learning from them.
You can also look at your 4th house ruler to determine how you can establish these secure foundations that you might not have received in childhood. We always have the opportunity to reflect on our values and adjust boundaries.
For example, 4th house ruler in the 7th house? Then make sure you establish healthy relationships where the energy is reciprocated, and it’s not just you doing emotional and physical labor for others. Your relationships have to feel SATISFYING, and if they don’t, you shouldn’t force yourself to keep toxic people around out of guilt. 4th house ruler is in the 3rd house, and you need to make sure that the neighborhood you’re living in and the people in your vicinity are not emotionally draining you. You need to make space to express your needs and ideas throughout the day as the 3rd house rules our conscious mind. 4th house ruler in the 9th house, and you can rely on spiritual and religious practices as forms of comfort. And you can also feel more secure the more you grow when it comes to your education. Your knowledge can liberate you. It could also be helpful for you to travel. 4th house ruler in the 8th house, and you can’t be afraid when it comes to acknowledging the darkest aspects of you, the thoughts you are ashamed of, and the relationships you have with your body, finances, and sexuality. Are you willing to sacrifice yourself for everyone else? Will that genuinely make you happy in the end? 4th house ruler in the 10th house would do you good to have conversations with figures you admire and respect who can provide you with sound advice. And so on. You know best how specific energy manifests in your own life and what you truly desire.
people with the samesign into both the ascendant and the 12thhouseprobablydon’trelate to their rising sign. that’s because the traits of that sign are hiddenandprivate in the 12th house, it’s a side of us that we’re not aware to have.
♂️ in a solarreturnchart,virgorising may indicate weightloss. it’s a year that sees major healthimprovements unless mercury, the chart ruler, is badly placed or aspected. overall, the virgo rising individual will start taking more care of themselves, hence they may go on a diet, organize a workout routine, anything that makes them feel better.
people with scorpiodegrees (8, 20°) can be much darker than usual in that placement. it doesn’t matter whether the sign at a scorpio degree is the bubbliest, most outgoing sign of the zodiac, it will make you more secretive about it. for example, I have a 20° sagittarius ascendant; sagittarius rising makes one extremely warm and outgoing, while I’m literally the opposite. I have a rbf, and people always tell me that I look sad, angry or mean lol.
✨neptune/pisces in the 3rdhouse have very dreamyvoices. they may be particular, and sometimes notexactlyclear as they tend to be quite nasal, but they’re very pleasant to hear. also, I’ve noticed that people with this placement tend to sound extremely different in real life vs in videos.
venusandneptune in the 8thhouse can make one interested in dark topics in books,movies,tv series, etc. more specifically, the venus person may feel more interested in sad, dark literature and books, and they may also be incredibly fond of thrillers. they may also be into more maturemusic, like the weekend for example. neptune, on the other hand, prefers the graphic type of horror, hence they may love dark movies,tv series,anime,comics/mangas and also art.
there’s this stereotypethatlibra is the most diplomatic sign of the zodiac. well, that is partially true. partially. technically speaking, libras are supposed to be very charmingandkind with their words, they also have a softvoice in addition to that that makes them look very well-spoken. but personally, all the libra suns I’ve met, minus one, aren’t like that at all. that’s because libra suns may have their mercuryinvirgoorscorpio, which are two of the most bluntandrude signs to have in mercury. virgoislogical, and finds it hard to express their thoughts without coming off as a know-it-all.scorpio, on the other hand, is very sarcasticandbrutallyhonest. they’re very trasparent, but they can’t handle the weight of their own words, ending up saying mean things. they may also manipulate you into agreeing with them, they’re very subtle.
chiron in the 10thhouse may make one prone to get a lot of criticsmonline, perhaps through social media. in fact, most celebrities with this placement don’thaveasocialmedia account, probably because they want to avoid reading hurtfulcomments. if they do have an account, they don’treallyuse it often, but just to promote their new works or other important matters. also, they may feel insecureandprivatetoshare content and communicate through social media, they’re more traditional. some examples are angelina jolie, sandra bullock, harry styles, emma watson…
☄️ another stereotypeaboutlibra placements, is that they are indecisive. at first, it may seem like that. but actually, they just like thinkingdeep about all of their decisions, they don’twantregrets later and want to make the right choice. they could be the type to ask for advice to someone else, and then they endupdoingwhatevertheywant anyways, because they got to their own conclusion that seems the best to them.
scorpio placements ladies usually have problems with their periods. they may be very painful and they could suffer from cramps, or perhaps their cycle is irregular. e.g they may often skip a month or more. they could get angry very easily during their periods, and they may as well suffer from pms symptoms. also, to give birth they may have to undergo a c-section.
leorisings may often be sexualized, they constantly have people making sexualfantasies about them. that’s because they have pisces, the sign of dreams and imagination, in the 8thhouse, the house of sex appeal, that combined with leo energy makes an individual very attractive.
warning: remember, to precisely determine fame potential you need to have more than one of these placements, I would say at least three or four of them. I’ll make other parts of this series though, so don’t consider exclusively this post.
ruler of the 11th house in the 11th house
the 11th house rules achievements, as well as fame. people with the ruler of the 11th house in the 11th house can get extremely famous, this is the hollywoodtypeoffame. in fact, celebrities who have this placement are globally well-known: angelina jolie, johnny depp, al pacino, lauren jauregui, kylie jenner… to check if you have this placement, look at the 11th house in your birth chart. which sign does the cusp fall in? let’s suppose it’s virgo. if you have virgo in your 11th house, then you must have mercury placed there, as mercury rules virgo and hence the 11th house. if you have pisces, neptune should be in the 11th, if it’s sagittarius then it’s jupiter and so on.
neptunein the 1st house,neptuneconjunctascendant,ascendantinpisces
I noticed that many celebrities have prominent neptune in their charts. first of all, neptune is the planet of art in all of its forms. people with this placement are usually naturally skilledinartistic fields, hence they could get famous for their singing or dancing skills, or even for acting. next, neptune rules dreamsandillusions, and celebrities aren’t what they seem after all. we see them as higher, perfect people with totally different lives from ours. yet, it’s obviously not true, they’re humans just like us, and we’re aware of it after all. despite that, we still keep idealizing them and judge them from what we’re able to see. in fact, models also have prominent neptune in their charts, exactly for this reason. last but not least, neptune also rules images,covers, and hence someone with prominent neptune may often be featured on magazines, ads, social media, etc. examples: ariana grande, ellen pompeo, marylin monroe, billie eilish, whitney houston, anne hathaway, eminem, tom cruise, scarlett johansson, paul mccartney, freddie mercury…
personal planets in the 10thhouse
our personal planets are the sun, the moon,mercury,venusandmars. having them in our 10th house, especially if conjunctthemidheaven, is a common placement in celebrities’ birth charts. in fact, having a planet in a house means that we make that trait of ours more visible, it is the focus of our life. the 10th house rules career and reputation, so you do the math. the planet you have in the 10th house also describesthecareeryou’llpursue. for example, actors will most likely have mercury (words, communication) or mars (action, movement, charisma), like selena gomez, marylin monroe, kathy bates, jessica lange, etc. a singer will have mercury (words, lyrics) and perhaps the moon (feelings, emotions) like adele, celine dion, lady gaga, christina aguilera, billie eilish, jim morrison, chris brown, liam payne…
leosun,moon,risingormidheaven
leo is aquarius’ sister sign. hence, it loves being in the spotlight. leos naturally crave attentionandcompliments, they feel comfortable being at the centre of attention. they’re also blessed with an incredibly strong charisma that makes people attracted to them. in addition, they’re gifted with creativity as well. just think of some of the most successful and famous celebrities out there: sandra bullock, kylie jenner, jessica lange, daniel radcliffe, lucy hale, blake lively, will smith, adam levine, nick jonas…
partoffortune in the 2nd,5th,8th,10thor11thhouse
as you can imagine from its name, the part of fortune indicates a point in your life where you’re naturallyskilled, where you’re able to make the bestfortune. in the secondhouse, the part of fortune brings easy money, and we all know that most of the time fame makes one extremely rich. the fifthhouse is leo’s natural house, and hence it rules creativity,dramaandentertainment; an individual with their part of fortune in the 5th house may be naturally inclined towards creative outlets and being in the spotlight. the 8th house is another money house, even though it’s a fame that is caused more by others. that is, if you have this placement, your #1 fortune would be your fans. also, many people with this placement are recognized as sexsymbols, which influences their fame a lot. as for the part of fortune in the 10thhouse, it is the house of career, bringing natural easeandluck at work. last but not least, the 11thhouserulesfameandgoals; people with their part of fortune in this house are the most dedicated to their goals, and they have the chance to achieve great fame and success for their achievements. examples: timothée chalamet, kurt cobain, angelina jolie, johnny depp, billie eilish, bill gates, gwyneth paltrow, zendaya, adriana lima, kobe bryant, mariah carey, sophia loren, vin diesel, brad pitt, steve jobs, amy winehouse, j.k. rowling…
ruler of the 10thhouseaspectingneptune
the10thhouse is the house of career. having it in pisces, or having the ruler of it aspectingneptune is an indicator of artisticfame. the stronger aspects are the hard ones, hence having neptune conjunct,squareoropposite the ruler of the midheaven is a major sign of fame and arts in a career. examples: jessica lange, sarah paulson, brad pitt, sandra bullock…
Virgo placement’s offend people on accident a lot. They’re super blunt and honest, because of that people tend to misread what Virgo intended to be helpful as rude.
Scorpio Sun’s can also have a problem with accidentally offending people but I feel like they’re more aware of it. Scorpio uses their critical thinking skills and people don’t like when they rebel against traditional thought.
⭐️ Underdeveloped Libra placement’s can be so self-centered, thinking that they have it the worst. Almost priding themselves in how bad they have it??
I’ve noticed quite a few non-monogamous Sagittarius placement’s.
Capricorn Moon’s are so good at mirroring your traits and masking their true selves, ya’ll scare me-
⭐️ Aquarius Sun = Super chill n calm. Aquarius Moon = Super on edge/agitated. Aquarius Sun + Moon = Suffering combo.
I know a chef whose a Taurus Moon, but this is highly based on stereotypes so please take this observation with a grain of salt. (Pun intended heheh)
Gemini Moon’s… What do you guy’s do? Are you okay?? You just randomly appear and then go away with no sign or warning. Ya’ll just be there- Where do you go?
⭐️ Leo Moon’s I promise that the vague, in no way related to you, statement someone made to someone else is not a hint about how much they hate you.
In a less detailed sense, you take things way too personally-
An old friend of mine was very skeptical, analytical, critical. He was a self-proclaimed “man of science” who also had a strong disbelief in astrology. He’s also a Virgo Moon.

Close your eyes, take a few deep breaths, then let yourself observe each pile. Choose whichever one you feel drawn to the most, you can choose multiple if you’d like however I would not recommend picking more than 3. It is also possible none of these piles are for you!! Take what resonates; leave what doesn’t.
Pile 1
You may soon attend an event where there will be lot’s of food, you may be surrounded with food, possibly you work at a restaurant?
Some of you are very protective over your possessions, maybe even some people in your life. You’re scared to lose all that you’ve accumulated, all that you’ve worked for, and the things/people you care about. Possibly you’ve lost something very dear to you? It has lead to you feeling as if there is no light ahead, feeling hopeless and stuck. You have recently decided to let go, move on from something you felt very strongly about. You feel like you wasted so much time all for nothing… I’m seeing some of you are ending a friendship or romantic relationship going back to one, or trying to decide if you should keep going or go back.
Some of you have PTSD or have gone through a traumatic event.
You guys are approaching a huge transformation. You have let people step on you in the past, you’ve given someone or something so many chances but they just keep taking your recourses for granted. You’re thinking “Why me?” “What do I have to do?” “What am I doing wrong?” You’re done. You’re not going to let people use you anymore. You’re a very generous individual and I don’t see that changing however you will learn when enough is enough. You may have a lot of repressed/suppressed emotions. Remember it is safe to feel, all feeling does is heal you. Vent to someone, journal, do whatever you need to let it out.

Someone’s is gorgeous, beautiful, you’d want to stare at them forever. This could be you or someone else. I’m feeling that some of you are jealous of someone else, envious, and you feel upset when you are reminded of them. Your thought’s get really nasty when it comes to them.
There may be a lot of arguments at home or with friends recently.
Ya’ll are scared of something, something you’re trying to avoid. You don’t want to be reminded of it and the thought of it makes you feel negatively,, anxious, panicked, confused? This is something you’ve been holding off for a while now.. Don’t you think it’d be better off to get it done and over with instead of feeling stuck in this?
You are quite stressed, remember to take it easy. Unfortunately things take time and you can’t change that, so don’t get down on yourself when things aren’t perfect or things couldn’t go in the exact timeframe you’d like it to. You’re trying your best, divine timing is by your side.

Pile 3
Okay so for pile 3 I got a bunch of different messages so I apologize if the formatting is a bit messy
Someone is being bold, sneaky, up to something they shouldn’t be. Very toxic, making false promises and forming shallow bonds in order to get things from people. Is this you or someone around you? Someone is misleading you, or being vague about something you’ve been wondering. You don’t feel good about it at all.. you’re feeling confused, annoyed, impatient, you may even feel like giving up altogether. This person is not worth your time and I see you growing tired of their bs + calling them out.
You have a lot of work to do and you’re very bummed out about it, not looking forward to it whatsoever however you still understand it needs to be done in order to get through with life. Very responsible. Some of you will be traveling to do work. Possibly you have a dangerous, secret, private, illegal, or unconventional field of work. Some of you are very artistic, someone’s working on some sort of artistic project… a song, album maybe?

Some of you are really deep into your feels, like you need someone by your side but at the same time you wish everyone would just leave you alone..

Pile 5
Lot’s of studying, learning, your education is rather important to you. Some of you may be taking a dancing class, an art class, tutoring or seeing a tutor. Pile 5 very much reminds me of Daria, you guys give off a very serious “don’t f with me” vibe. Someone is binge watching netflix a lil too much. I’m seeing someone put on a show while they’re crocheting, doing homework, eating. Multitasking. Someone chews a lot of gum, it’s like an action of comfort. A stim maybe? You may be involved in a lot of group activities and communities, I’m seeing specifically at school. Do you like Breaking Bad?
Hmm someone is being sneaky. Please do not steal from individual people. Someone is being bullied and I don’t feel it being you.. you may be in a very toxic time of your life, you may also have this victim mentality. The way you’re being treated is deserved, people treat you this way because you treat THEM that way. Some of you have seriously betrayed someone’s trust and I see some of you being very egotistical, maybe you feel like you’re superior to others. You’re not. There are definitely people in here who need this wake up call.
For the rest of you I see you being very work/school oriented, it may get in the way of your personal connections. Someone you care about feels as is if you’re neglecting the relationship even though it’s not your intention. You care about the people you love, I see you putting in your all.. you do a lot for those you care for. Maybe sometimes you feel as if they take your love for granted? Maybe sometimes you feel rejected by them but try to brush it off and say that you’re okay.. My loves your feelings are valid. I’m sorry people miss all the things you do, you’re very strong and resilient. Possibly you have a secret admirer, or people that admire how you’re able to do so much and still be okay. Someone struggles with communication, remember communication is key!! it’s okay to be honest about how you feel. And those who are really good for you will support you and try their best to be understanding.

Pile 6
Some of you are trapped in your head. Zero motivation. Feeling like all has been lost. Some of you may be wanting to start a new project? Or maybe you’re moving homes, jobs, schools, some sort of connection may have ended recently. The loss of a loved one? A breakup? Whatever this is, I see you starting new. Opening this new chapter in your life. I do see SOME of you entering a new relationship, quite a few of you have been fantasizing about entering a new one. Spirits saying not to get any ideas?? While there is this new change, something is in the way. You lack motivation and/or the necessities to go for this thing. Some of you are hopeless, lack confidence… Some really want to do this thing while others have to do it in order to get by. Have you been feeling insecure?
Someone is feeling worn out, someone here helps others a lot and is starting to lose the energy to be as helpful as they once were. And it’s okay!! Please try to rest as much as you can, some of you have been through some really messed up and possibly traumatic situations. You’re quite self-reliant and strong. You don’t like to ask others for help do you? Spirit is telling me you should take it slow, easy. Things take time, you can’t get it done all in one night. You’re highly stressed, sometimes breaks and rest aren’t always possible but if it is possible then resting a bit is highly suggested.
Some of you have limiting beliefs, too careful, too cautious. The truth is you can do whatever you want. You could throw a rock at the nearest window right now if you really wanted to, though it will have a consequence.
Someone is really scared to do what they desire, don’t run away from your fears. Face it, get it done and over with. It’s scary but you deserve what you want, you really do. Possibly there is a deadline? Or a time you wish to get something done? Trying to manifest something? It’s definitely coming, divine timing is by your side. Trust that things will play out when they’re supposed to.

Pile 7
I’m seeing someone is angry, they’re done living their life unfulfilled and letting people walk all over them, missing opportunities, being so humble to a point it’s degrading. Is this you? Other’s of you (or maybe you resonate with both) feel stuck in your head, I hear screaming. You are really going through it, and you’ve lost all hope.. You feel you can’t be saved, like everything has been ruined and that nothing can change. You’ve gone through a lot and you’ve tried for so so long. But nothing seems to change or go your way, “What am I doing wrong?” “What more can I do?” “I’m done”
Overall the theme of pile 7 is being done. Some in a motivated and passionate manner ready to assert themselves and be free, others in a hopeless depressed state ready to give up. For those feeling hopeless spirit is saying that there are good things to come. I know it seems impossible at this point but it’s true…. as long as you try your best to stay hopeful. Which is hard, you can’t just do that on your own at any time; if you could you would’ve done that as soon as you felt thing’s were getting out of hand. I truly sympathize with this pile, ya’ll deserve a warm drink, blankets, and a hug. Spirit wants to remind you that you’re strong. You’ve gone through so so much, things that others couldn’t even conceptualize,, yet you’re still here, alive.
Have you been inside a lot? In bed? Not living much? Spirit wants you to go outside a little more, even if it’s just sitting in the grass for a few minutes. I’m feeling it would benefit you to reconnect with reality a bit, do you miss it? The truth is you can’t get better all of a sudden, the possibility is certainly there but unfortunately it can’t come from nothing.. And I’m intuitively feeling that going out in nature, engaging in human interaction, participating in things you’re passionate about like a hobby,,, even if it’s just for a little bit, will help you to feel just a bit more alive. A little more hopeful, possibly even grateful. You have lots of potential pile 7, way more than you think you do.

Pile 8
Are you in love?
Pile 8 this reading definitely involves important and sacred connections. I see some of you getting married, meeting your future spouse, maybe you’ve already met them. Others of you may be falling in love or yearning for someone you already love. Some of you have a secret admirer, someone with a hidden crush… if this is the case they love you so deeply, they feel as if you’ve brought a light into their dark, like you’re the last piece to the puzzle. It could be that YOU feel this way about someone else.
It is important not to take this love for granted, it is life changing. It is a big deal. This love will be a big part of your life. Remember to express gratitude to those you love, appreciate every aspect of them and appreciate that you still have time left to spend with them.
Someone is going on an adventure in nature??

Leo Moon/Venus become OBSESSED when they’re in love. The type to call and ask how the meal is when you’re eating out with a friend,, the catch is that you never told them that you were going out to eat with a friend.
Insecure + underdeveloped Libra placements LOVE to give backhanded compliments.
⭐️ Underdeveloped Leo placements refuse to be wrong, literal evidence doesn’t matter to them. The sky is green if they say it is, you can’t win.
Pluto dominants and Pluto in the 1st aren’t all that intimidating or like Scorpio’s at all. However they have a very intense and big energy you can’t help but to pick up on, and I have noticed that I can’t help but to have strong opinions about these natives.
Underdeveloped Aquarius placements also refuse to be wrong. However Aquarius will genuinely believe that they’re right while Leo knows deep down that they’re wrong.
Leo’s: The sky is green.
Aquarius: Wdym the sky isn’t green??
⭐️ Cancer Sun’s are oblivious. The amount of time’s i’ve had a crush on one and they thought I hated them-
Like I’ve tried to subliminally message multiple Cancer Sun’s and the way they completely miss it is hilarious,, tbh even if you directly told them they’re still so filled w doubt. </3
Taurus Sun’s are so so secretive. It’s hard to get close to one.
Not an observation but I love all Cancer Sun’s, ya’ll are so sweet and care too much n you make me feel safe. <33
⭐️ Leo Sun’s are extreme in the way they present their traits, if they’re good they’re really good. If they’re bad they’re insufferable.
hi everyone !! requests are finally open again :) I had to stop and slow down during the last few months due to studying, but with christmas break I can surely take a few more requests! I won’t be taking many though, and I decided to only interpret birth charts for now as they’re easier and take me less time :)
# WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM A BIRTH CHART READING?
- in my readings, I focus on the psychological matters of an individual. I analyze their ego, emotions, outer and inner reactions, wounds and approach to the world. I also take in consideration your physical appearance, your way of loving and receiving love and affection, your way of reasoning and expressing your thoughts and even your fashion sense, as I find that it’s influenced by your mind and ideals after all. I also describe your childhood, your love life, your friendships and even your approach to school and career. I don’t want astrology to feel too complicated, even though it is. I try to explain these topics with simple words, giving you advices to break free from restrictions, limitations and challenges in your life to live peacefully.
- I’m also going to do a few predictions about who you’re going to marry/date, and even about your children. If you’ve yet to choose your permanent career, I can also address you towards what you’re skilled at and offer you a few suggestions. I’m going to analyze your current transits and mood as well, in order to help you dealing and overcoming eventual bad feelings.
- another topic I like talking about in my readings is past lives. after all, anyone would be interested in knowing who they were in another body, right? I find it just as interesting as you, therefore I decided to add a section exclusively related to this topic. I’m also going to inform you about your purpose of this lifetime, in order to achieve the best of luck.
- I also like giving advices to increase your psychic abilities and manifest anything you desire through the law of attraction based on your birth chart.
- I write my readings in a pragmatic and neat way. I like pointing out which aspect I’m analyzing, and I take everything in consideration in your chart to make it yours. I don’t limit myself to tell and explain you what effects your placements have in general, I dive deep into your chart to link them to your childhood, relationships, hobbies and just you. let’s suppose you have difficulty opening up to others; I seek for clues in your chart that may explain why you act in that way, in order for you to understand your behaviour and eventually correct it.
# HOW MUCH DO I PAY FOR A READING?
each reading costs €25. I think it’s a reasonable price, considering that I try to write and analyze as much as I can about a variety of topics. an astrologer usually asks way more, at least around €40 - 150. I’m willing to make these more affordable, as my main goal isn’t exactly earning money, but helping people understand who they are. I’ve grown up way faster since I’ve started learning about astrology, and it even boosted my self-esteem. I want anyone to feel this way, without having to pay hundreds of dollars.
# HOW DO I BOOK A READING?
to book a reading, you have to click on the link I’ll leave down below, which will take you to a reliable website called ko-fi. you can send me money using the ‘support’ button. the payment is managed by paypal, therefore the transaction is completely trustworthy. once your payment has been sent, you’ll have to send me a private message here on tumblr with your birth info (date, time and place) and your pronouns too (he/she/they).
# WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY READING?
a reading usually takes me around ¾ days to be completed and corrected if I’m not too busy. understand that there’s a lot to look at, and I need concentration. this time may vary, based on the amount of commissions I get. you should be able to get your reading in maybe a month when I’m busy, but I repeat, it may vary. I will keep you informed about it though, and will tell you when I officially start working on it. I’ll start reading them in the order I get them.
if you’re not totally sure yet, you can take a look at the reading I’ve done for my first client here. you can read it, see if you like how I interpret birth charts and then book your reading. :)
Exaltation is one of the dignities of a planetary position, in fact a very preferred one. Rachel Lang says “A planet is strongest in a sign in which it’s exalted. [Here] it can achieve it’s highest expression and potential.” So when we look towards Venus, we see it finds it’s highest expression in Pisces. Why so?
How does materialism and spirituality mix? I thought I dive in deep to discover what gives such a standard then.
Let’s see. What comes to mind regarding Pisces? Resolved, footless, cathartic, ethereal, joyous, idealism, emulsive, devotional, ascended, anarchic, ecstaticity, Aphrodic, Dionysian, adorned.
What is Love? Boundless, romantic, selfless, imaginative, fantastical, spiritual, rejuvenating, universal, unconditional, sacrifice, transcendence, nirvana. It is the sea of tranquility.
Rachel Lang further states that Venus is a planet that seeks harmony, balance and empathy. Further research proves that it craves freedom as well, under desired capacity to live their ideal self expression (a note as to why Venus finds it’s Joy in the 5th House) . You’ll find this may perfectly fit for the “mature archetype” of the mutable water sign.
(Victor Gabriel Gilbert, venus pisces 8°)
This placement at it’s best suggests that a captivating union stems from empathetic connection; a shared vision. You (native) may even seek to (figuratively) find God in them (your beloved), to submerge yourself in the rivers of love. At it’s worst however? Escapism and saviour-complex rooted in selfish conduct. Self deception becoming your key drawback.
“Love recognises no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at it’s destination, full of hope.” (Maya Angelou, 21° pisces venus conjunct mercury)
Pisces is an enigma isn’t it? Traditionally ruled by Jupiter, co-ruled by Neptune, exaltation of Venus, symbolised by two fish. It’s a mutable water sign alluding to it’s elusive nature. You can’t resist it’s beauty either. There’s an intuitive “knowing” all forseen without the need for words, thus the debilitation of Mercury itself.
(Model attented to by designer, Christian Dior, pisces venus 15°)
Goddess Aphrodite wanting to be worshipped to return the favour in abundance; the greek deity who was deemed untouchable yet completely irresistable. Married against her wishes yet never could come to loathe her repulsive husband Hephaestus, her matrimonial union was never soiled with hate on her part. On the other neither was loyalty upheld since aphrodite’s thirst for affection and romance never seemed to be quenched, thus frolicking into multiple dramatic affairs.
This would be where I’ve seen people, understandably, question the legitimacy of monogamy for pisces venus natives. My counter argument is plain and simple, the structure and foundations for romantic commitment is seen under Libra, the 7th house. Simple as that, marriage is just not for those who want no bounds and shouldn’t be forced to uphold them either. The sign fully ruled by Venus but also the exaltation point of Saturn. Are we clear here a bit?
Monogamy, polyamory, lust, sexuality, philandering these can be seen under Libra or Leo and of course, the Taurus-Scorpio axis. Pisces has it all and yet none.
(Frank W. Benson, pisces venus 0°)
Now this is not to say Pisces has nothing to do with any of the above mentioned traits, trust researchers when they admit it will indulge in bedroom pleasures when it wants and with enthusiasm as well. And that’s it. They enjoy sensual and/or erotic attention but it is not enough for them to prioritize a specific mate or small group, it’s not enough for them. What i want to inform you is the piscean’s necessary need for the freedom to live with unconditional love towards birds and carnivores alike, from shrubs to the marshland insects, the sick and vagabonds.. The desire to be one with nature and love all living things included whichever holds the breath of life. It is the primary Jovial attribute where abundance is found.
In Vedic, Shukra is the most occult and mysterious of the heavy planets. What the metaphysicians call the Divine Love pervading all forms of creation, is in fact the expression of Venusian impulse. Shukra produces attraction for physical well being and social status but it is also appreciative of spiritual knowledge.
Pisces represents the calm before the storm, the repose before the beginning of the whirlwind of the next cycle of manifestation. As such it’s not at all uncommon for people with this sidereal placement to go through many karmic events, in a repeatition too, and with venus in particular relationships become that prime theme. The key point to always remember about them, is how a pisces never gives up on what their love (noun), never stifle, always giving and try to enrich with it.
