the 3rd house is a lot of like early life learning and education and your hometown community. and i was also reading that its the building blocks for your brain, your cognition the part of your mind that is built by childhood experiences that you barely remember.
i was thinking about how that lined up with derived houses. if you don’t know what derived houses are, essentially theyre meanings of houses in relation to the meaning of another. if your 4th house is your mother and you look at it as if it had its own ascendant, your 3rd house is the 12th house of the mother
Tumblr media
following this, your “developing subconscious” house is the same as your mothers “unconscious, psychological issues” house. and i think that means we can find a description of issues or blessings a mother passes down to her child, the native, in the 3rd house

Hi! just stumbled upon your blog. nice to see another traditional astrology blog on tumblr btw!
In your posts about the 12th house you mentioned trying to fulfill the needs of planets there or even engaging with them could backfire and mess things up somehow, and ultimately those needs will likely never be fulfilled. That's an interesting take and I can agree with it. I usually hear people encouring to pursue things in the 12th house and be more proactive, trying to "master" them and bringing them to light or to the surface. I don't know how useful or successful that ends up being in practice though. But when it comes to the chart ruler being there, how could that be interpreted? it means it's better if the person doesn't attempt self-realization?
Hi! Apologies for the late reply, I’ve been on holidays.
I didn’t intend to imply that people should never attempt to deal with their 12th house placements. 12th house placements are just extremely difficult to manage, and so engaging them can have unexpected consequences. Difficult doesn’t necessarily mean “bad”
There’s no astrological doctrine (afaik) that details counselling considerations for difficult chart placements, so I’m using my best personal judgement, but I’m of the mind that difficult things are always better brought to light. Even the luminaries (sun and moon) are supposed to be helpful to 12th house subjects because they give light it like a lamp. If we want to consider Jung’s work (a more modern take ik), then it’s vitally important we address the 12th house just as he did with the shadow archetype with which the 12th house associates.
Your chart ruler in the 12th honestly means its even more important you address 12th house concerns, because the planet at the helm, driving the whole ship that is your life, is stuck in stormy water. 12th house subjects are the places in which you can gain control over your own life and find yourself. Possible methods to do that would be isolation (alone time, spiritual retreats, etc) and therapy (uncovering the hidden parts of the self).
Best of luck!

Chiron Observations: Chiron in the Houses 🍄
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Chiron is an asteroid named after the Centaur who taught Achilles, who used his own traumas to become a great teacher. Chiron is not the only place traumas can show up in a chart, but it does show up in places where trauma can be your biggest teacher if your work through it properly— those instances in your past that hurt you greatly that you can turn into your greatest strength. These traumas usually happen in early life.
Chiron in the Houses show us where your trauma shows up, more than exactly what the cause was or how it happened.
Note: you might also relate to the experiences of the house where the ruler of Chiron’s sign is. Ex. if you have Chiron in Aquarius, you will relate to whatever house Saturn is in.
1st: Being made to question who you are or who you want to be. Feeling uncomfortable or out of place physically. Feeling unwelcome in the world. The source of your basic physical needs being uncertain (food, shelter, water).
2nd: Trauma around revoking agency. Having possessions lost, stolen or broken. Issues with self-esteem. A lack of security, possible feelings of helplessness. Things challenging personal values.
3rd: Trauma surrounding miscommunication or being misunderstood. From community or siblings, or childhood traditions. Issues in grade school and with learning.
4th: Trauma from homelife, things that happen “behind closed doors”. Involving parents or ancestors, possibly generational trauma. Feeling unstable, unsafe, like you have no home to return to if things get rough, lacking stable support systems. Issues with the environment you grew up in (including home changes, political shifts where you lived that made things uncertain, etc)
5th: Issues surrounding forming a family or ability to marry. Parental disapproval of marriages. Trauma surrounding childbirth. Trauma around limiting self-expression and creativity. Restriction of fun or over-promotion of seriousness. Sexual performance issues.
6th: A sense of duty that denies the self (self care, identity, etc). Chronic health issues in the self or others. Longterm mental health issues that manifest physically. Trauma from the demands of work or school, or from the school/workplace peers.
7th: Issues with relating to people and forming relationships. Possibly a loner. Getting into relationships that repeatedly don’t work out. A sense of guilt or shame regarding how you perceive others vs yourself— dissonance between yourself and others.
8th: Trauma involving power dynamics and people exerting power over you. Being in debt. Possibility of depression or substance abuse.
9th: Trauma involving relocation and moving far from your childhood home (often to follow a career or education). Difference in belief systems, forced belief systems. Philosophical uncertainty and obsession over it. Trauma that causes interest in bigger pictures than most people at a young age. Feeling too perceptive, a wider world you’re trying to make sense of.
10th: Having an early start to your career, a career starting in childhood. Traumas that result in issues with authority and rebellions. Trauma that arises from early recognition of talents or lack thereof. Traumas that result in the desire to “make a name” for oneself and high ambition; to be the top or in charge.
11th: Being half-way in and half-way out of social groups. Difficulty finding or maintaining a community identity. Exclusion from a community, causing trauma, or vice versa. Having a community identity that raises conflict, controversy, or harm to the native.
12th: Issues that don’t feel like they were caused by a single traumatic instance, but instead feel like they’ve always been a part of you. Consistent depression, anxiety, and other mental issues that make the day-to-day difficult. The need to be secret about your life, or be secret about the struggles you’re facing. Trauma caused by reoccurring or consistent mental illness. Traumatizing hospitalizations. Trauma caused by institutes.

My reply was too long for a comment according to tumblr and I don’t really like replying from my main for this blog, so I hope you don’t mind me answering here @astrodoll2
Saturn is a lil bit of an oddball in this case, because in the 12th house saturn is in its joy, so any damage done by saturnian activities are going to be helpful for the individual to some extent. It isolates, which is difficult, but it often will give them the isolation they need to figure things out and not get caught up in the hub-bub, even if it messes up some other stuff. These saturnian acts can include the native acting with authority, setting boundaries/distancing oneself, or being grounded, realistic, and structured. For example, it could show up as being the person who gives a heavy dose of reality to people, and they resent you for it.
For the sun, basically anything to do with showing who you are or expressing your life’s story. The native attempting to be an individual with presence is what will polarize people; it keeps them from being having that story be witnessed, even though that’s what they need.

Interesting! Thank you for sharing. I guess the moon adds an ability to express the written components of Virgo, as well as the MC pushing it to be seen, so it’d make sense that you get some writing done! I do like seeing how people relate to my notes, it’s really insightful.
🌱 Astro Notes II
Tumblr media
🌱 The 5th House is related to the making of art, while the 9th and 12th Whole Sign Houses are more related to creative inspiration. The 12th is the type of inspiration that comes from nowhere, like a sudden idea. The 9th is inspiration you find in the world.
🌱 People with Venus in the 3rd are often good at singing.
🌱 Gemini risings often had to have dealt with rumours being spread about them, name-calling, and other forms of bullying.
🌱 The house Taurus is in can show you where a self care routine would be beneficial. Taurus, as a fixed earth sign ruled by the pleasure-seeking Venus, wants the stability of a regular supply of comfort and balance. If you have Taurus in the 9th, for example, you might enjoy having a daily or weekly spiritual practice as a part of your self care. If you have it in the 6th, you might need to balance your work time and your rest time better with a set routine.
🌱 Any planets in the 12th Whole Sign House represent both what needs you are lacking and what engaging with could be your undoing. That’s part of why the 12th house is notoriously difficult to deal with. If you have Mars in the 12th, you might have a hard time fulfilling your need to sever ties with people. But you also might find that whenever you try to fulfill that need, it inexplicably messes everything up.
🌱 The Scorpio experience of shame, tho. Especially Scorpio Moons, but many break from that feeling and become very intense in their expression.
🌱 I’ve started seeing people with Chiron in the 6th have their life transformed by accepting themselves or someone they’re close to as gay.
🌱 People with prominent 6th Whole Sign House placements often feel pressured to fulfill a role or a duty.
🌱 Prominent Aries placements are drawn to novelty.
🌱 Virgo’s archetype talks about the preservation of beauty, and preservation that sacrifices the function of the thing. Along with Mercury’s significations of writing, it makes me wonder how many people with prominent Virgo placements are under the curse of buying a bunch of notebooks and then never having the courage to write in them.

Hello! I thought I’d do a brief description of my practice and techniques used for anyone curious
Tumblr media
Traditional Astrology
Traditional astrology varies from modern astrology in a few ways, but the most notable is the rulership scheme and planets used. Traditional astrology only uses the first seven celestial bodies. Sun, Moon, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Mercury. Though a lot of traditional astrologers still use the modern planets (Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto) as ways to gather more information, they only use the traditional seven for their rulerships. Traditional astrology also typically uses Whole Sign Houses and does not contain the psychological aspect that modern astrology does, as the addition of psychology to psychological practices was a later development. Personal preferences and practice do vary from astrologer to astrologer, though.
Traditional Rulerships
Aries: Mars
Taurus: Venus
Gemini: Mercury
Cancer: Moon
Leo: Sun
Virgo: Mercury
Libra: Venus
Scorpio: Mars
Sagittarius: Jupiter
Capricorn: Saturn
Aquarius: Saturn
Pisces: Jupiter
Whole Sign Houses
Using Whole Sign Houses is pretty standard for Traditional Astrology. Basically, it’s only one House per Sign. Cusps like the MC, IC and ASC are depicted as floating points within the sign. Whatever sign your Ascendant falls in will be your first house, and the next sign will be your second house, and so on. The Houses are all the same size. This is how horoscopes were done in the past, because it was easy to see what transits were happening and where in a broad range of peoples charts without knowing anything else about them, so it was easier to make statements. Ex. Leo risings will always have a Scorpio 4th house, so anytime something happened in Scorpio, you could make statements for Leo risings about 4th house matters.
Me, as an Astrologer
I am not a full-time Astrologer, but I do take my study seriously. I’ve trained with Maren Altman to get me started, and now I’m studying independently through texts and gaining experience synthesizing what I see. Ultimately, I hope to help people. I know what it feels like to be so lost in life, and divination can be a powerful tool to give you information on your life. The more you know about yourself, the more you have to work with. To me, Astrology isn’t about changing the future, it’s about the acceptance of reality and learning to work with what you have. I aim to learn to use Astrology to be able to depict accurately what people are dealing with so I can help them gain some footing in their life. As such, I don’t focus a lot of time on personality traits. I focus a lot on life events and life patterns that may or may not have a psychological aspect to them. I don’t work with degrees, but I do work with Decans. I work mainly with the traditional planets, but I’ll use Neptune, Uranus, Pluto, and Chiron for more insight.
Currently, I don’t accept clients. But if you enjoy my work, consider tipping me through Tumblr or buying me a coffee through Ko-fi. I put a lot of effort into my work, I do a lot of research, so if you’re able to, please consider showing your thanks. I do a lot of my work in a coffeeshop, so you’d be paying for a nice lil day to sit and work. However, no money is needed to enjoy my work. It’s a tough world out there, and everyone deserves to engage in spirituality without a monetary requirement. I’m happy to answer questions through asks (within reason).

The moon archetype through the houses 🌛
Moon archetype:
*Remember that this is just a base, the moon archetype use to vary depending on the moon sign and its aspects*
The moon is the ruler of Cancer and the 4th house. It's associated with moon deities, specially the ones related to the mother archetype.
The moon is the Mother archetype, the one that give us security and consolation, it is associated with our comfort zone like the place where we come to find a refuge from the outer world.
It rules our emotional world and our primal instincts are associated with the moon as well. When we act in automatic mode we are living from our moon sign.
The moon can't shine by itself, it needs the Sun light to shine, that's why the moon is also our subconscious mind. It's really important to give light to our moon to light up our shadows and understand ourselves in a deeper level.
The moon also talks about our childhood and the way we percieved our mother when we were kids.
Tumblr media
The moon through the houses:
- The moon in the 1st: These natives are highly sensitive people by nature, they are energy sponges feeling everything around them. I've realized that people with this placement are persons of instincts, even the ones dittached from their intiuition knows automaticly what to do in stressful situations. These natives have a magnet for attracting people, their gentle energy makes everyone feel comfortable by their side. They use to be very attached to the mother figure or the childhood enviroment, sometimes they can loose their priorities from sight to adapt themselves to other people expectations, specially what their mum expects of them. They are very emotional people but is important to don't supress their feelings, if they do can end up in anger explossions. They are caring people with a lot of love to give, they have an strong intuition that if they listen to it more often it can prevent them from harmful situations, they can have premonitory dreams too.
- The moon in the 2nd: The feeling of security and comfort is related to their material comodities and economic security, they feel better when they know they can satisfy their basic needs. They feel very identified with their family system beliefs, apecially with the Mother oersoective of life and hardly question it even if they don't resonate with them. They tend to get attached to material things with an emotional meaning, even more if it is a family heirloom. These natives use to find a second source of incomes through lunar activities like taking care of other people's needs, taking care of children, cooking... They have an special connection with nature and a talent to predict other people's desires and needs, physical or emotional.
- The moon in the 3rd: This placement has like a telepathic radar to know what other people is thinking, this can lead to get confused between other people's thoughts and their own. They know if someone is having a harmful or negative mindset and can see through lies but they can get obsessed trying to know what's on the mind of other people. Knowledge makes them feel safe, not for power but for the comfort of knowing how things work. They are curious and open minded people with a great memory, they enjoy learning new things but they need to feel inspired to don't loose the interest. The relationship with their siblings or neighbours in the childhood could be determinant for their charater develop.
-The moon in the 4th: These natives are very united to their beloved ones, their family is very important for them. Even when they have built their own family these natives tend to go back to their origin family when they are feeling bad. They are deeply emotional but they can have too many attachments, many times those patterns comes from their ancestral lineage, also that emotional depth can lead to misundertandings with people. There use to be an strong bound with the father figure, perceiving the "Mother qualities" in them, coming to them to find comfort and afection. They need to feel emotionally comfort in their home, these natives tend to have very cozy homes. They like to learn about the past and feel very happy when they live near water bodies.
- The moon in the 5th: Very creative people, they find comfort by being the sun that warms up the room, they tend to have talent for scenic arts or physical expression like dancing. Their emotions can be very intense but they like the feeling of butterflies in their belly, like the ones we have in the first stages of a romance, this can lead them to impulsive behaviors for getting carried away with the inicial excitment, ending up with people or situations that they don't really like after a while. They can live very dramatic romances that are projections of unsolved problems with the mother figure. They get along very well with children and usually feels the desire of having their own children, they tend to be very charming and attract people easily.
- The moon in the 6th: People with this placement tend to feel comfortable in their daily habits and routines, they need to feel productive and that everything they do is useful for thwir wellbeing. They are very aware of their physical body and its needs, but they need to be careful of getting obsessed with their self care routines and becoming moody when something unexpected happens. Their emotional stage is determinant for their daily development and the way they face the daily complications. The way these natives deal with their health is closely related to the way their mother did having very similar patterns in their way of organizing themselves. Feeling emotionally connected with their work is essential for them, they are great attending the needs of the physical body through soft excersice and a healthy diet. They have an special connection with animals and a close bound with their pets but need to be careful about projecting any emotional conflict through their pets.
- The moon in the 7th: This placement has an exelent taste for what's aesthetically beautiful and harmonious. They are very social people, they like to feel accompained, they don't get along very well with solitude. They must take care of their emotions to avoid getting too related with other people's desires and needs, specially the ones from their romantic partner. The idea of marriage and building a family gives them comfort and security but they can project over this their emotional unsolved complexes with the mother figure. They can get overwhelmed by their feelings when they are in a relationship getting too many ups and downs because of their extreme sensibility, if they don't integrate this aspect they use to attract people with peculiar characteristics or expecting from the natives the care of a mother.
- The moon in the 8th: This placement gives an extreme sensitivity to all the outer energies that moves around them and use to keep under the surface, they are very intuitive and have habilities to predict what's about to happen. The moon in water houses is always an energetic sponge that absorbs every detail around them but this can be too much, that high sensitivity usually starts in their childhood when they had to keep an extra alert sense to everything that is hidden, specially what the mother wants to keep to herself. Those emotional complexes manifest in the adult life by unconscious trust issues, their first experiences with sex and death could be determinant for their character development too. They are very good with finances and usually have fortune related to inheritance, mostly from the mother lineage. They are very good at helpimg people in times of sorrows and they use to feel very attracted to mysticism.
- The moon in the 9th: These natives have an special eye to see and predict where they can find luck or fortune oportunities. They are very curious about the different cultures in the world and their perspective of life. They use to have connections with religious currents, many times inherited from the mother but they are always open to learn more about other kind of perspectives about the Divinity. They get comfort and safety through their own expansion, it can be traveling or learning about the meaning of life but they must be careful of using this tools as escape mechanism of their reality. Their view of god has matriarcal characteristics, being nurturing and caring. These natives have great habilities for oniric work because or their talent to understand symbols and archetypes.
- The moon in the 10th: This placement can be a little hard to deal with because the mother figure can be projected over the way they show themselves to the world or the authority figures of their life. They feel safe through their profession and status in their career, they are very sensitive with their reputation and it hurts them deeply if gets affected in a negative way. Most than any other placement, these natives need to attend their inner child needs although they have a big need of being loved but refuse to show their vulnerability. They can have luck and become a reference through careers related to lunar activities, like the care of children or attending other people's needs. They know how to satisfy and nurture other people but it can be a little harder when it come to themselves.
-The moon in the 11th: These are very social and friendly people, they feel more comfortable with their group of friends or any organization they feel emotionally connected to. Friendship is very important to them and they usually get the role of the "Mother of the group", the one who takes care and consolate, they are the nurturers of their friends but they need to be careful with the kind of people they attract (the aspects and sign of the moon gives more detail about the kind of connections they have). The relationship with the mother could be more like a best friends relationship than a conventional mother. They like to take care of their beloved ones but they expect the same care and devotion from them, the unsolved situations with the mother could be projected into their frienships or the organizations they are associated to. They must take care of spending too much time in social activities to avoid attend their own feelings, they can leave their values aside to fit in a group or get affected negatively by other people opinions. They are very good with writting and usually find a good therapy tool in it.
- The moon in the 12th: Everything in Neptune's house can become problematic if it's not channeled in a healthy way, the moon here gives an extreme sensibility, they have a deep subconscious world and are very connected to the collective subconscious. The relationship with the mother could be unconventional, with some difficulties to set boundaries, the problems with the mother, daughters or femenine friends has their origins in a past life. They can feel everything around them, mostly the feelings of other people as it were their own, that can lead them to look for solitude to recharge their batteries, it's very important to protect themselves in an energy level too. They enjoy helping people but they use to attract people with very deep ulsolved emotional problems looking for someone who saves them. There could be some traumatic experiences in schools, hospitals or organizations that cpuld be determinat in their personality. They are very wise people with great advices to offer, there's an special connection with the Divine, finding many answers within them, in the hard moments their intuitions tells them loudly what to do. They have talent for oniric work and spiritual channeling.

How'd you describe a libra venus in 12th house (and 12th house natal)
OOF welcome to the Venus in the 12th House club.
By “12th House Natal” I’m going to assume you want a brief description of what the 12th House means in a natal chart.
The 12th House represents isolation, institutions, and the parts of our subconscious that are our undoing. It’s things that we rather not see about ourselves and the idea of being on the outskirts of things. At its worst it’s self-destruction and sever mental health issues, and at its best it’s the transformative work of meditation or a spiritual retreat. It can also signify foreign/distant places.
The good news is Venus is in her domicile in Libra, so she’s very happy here, and it’s going to mitigate some of the hardships behind the 12th House. Venus in Libra seeks to apply value equally to all things and spread her wealth generously. This can make someone very attractive to others, because you make them feel valued and heard. Compromise and delayed action to get a consensus on what works for everyone are virtues.
However, in the 12th House, despite all that, there’s something isolating you and keeping you from the connection Venus is so prepared to do. When you do reach out for connection, it might be like they’re trying to take something from you forcibly, and making that compromise unequal in their favour. This can lead to trust issues. Similarly, it can also represent you compromising yourself just for connection. This can lead to resentment, as if when you do reach out, you give more than you can handle, burn out, and have to isolate again. The placement has a strong feeling of unnoticed value, and invested value that isn’t coming back to you (figuratively or literally). In the last decan (if I’m using the chart in your previous ask), there’s a lesson about knowing when to sever ties and when to invest more in them.

Hello! I was wondering how you'd interpret pluto opposite north node and square sun? There hasn't been much information about it at all,, thanks in advance❤️
Tumblr media
Hello! Thank you for the ask ✨
I see these aspects— with Virgo, Gemini, and Sagittarius involved— as the desire to use knowledge to outsmart forces in one’s life that feel out of their control. Since Pluto is in the Whole Sign second house, I can see that instability involving finances or how you value yourself. Sagittarius points to a possibility that you are or once were rather idealistic and very self-affirming in a positive way, but that lack of control lead to the rigidity of the Sun in Virgo and the temptation to pick everything apart and know everything with the North Node in Gemini. It’s likely that you look to the occult for that compensatory knowledge since the North Node is in the 8th Whole Sign House. It’s a very tense relationship for the Sun to be in so I can see this dynamic leading to some self-sabotage as well (perhaps another way to prove to yourself that you still have control). I can’t ignore Mars’ presence there alongside it and the idea of working yourself to the bone to gain security, financial or otherwise.

@kelsey-solan Hi! I thought I’d make a mini post about this, since I can’t reply directly from this blog. Hope you don’t mind!
The Decans are pretty much thirds of a sign. The first is 0-9 degrees, the second is 10-19, and the third is 20-30. It’s 10 degrees each technically, it’s just that 0 counts as the first degree.

Archetype 🌷 Gemini
Tumblr media
Gemini is all about exchange and choices. It’s one of the two signs ruled by Mercury— the planet of information, currency, logic, thoughts, communication, and similar concepts. Contrary to Virgo, who likes to sort, organize, and categorize, Gemini wants the free flowing of thoughts and ideas. It doesn’t much care as to what’s being exchanged, it’s indiscriminate, unlike its sibling. So long as there’s movement. This can lead to contradictions and inconsistencies, as Gemini is constantly taking on new concepts. It’s the basis for the “double faced” stereotype and the reason Gemini is one of the double-bodied signs, if not the poster child for it. It is The Twins, the idea of duality, two equal yet contradicting things being true at the same time. However it’s that same ever-changing state that gives Gemini its youthful quality. It is associated with controversy, curiosity, choices, jacks-of-all-trades, gossip, critics, betrayals, and the arts (especially performance arts).
Brief Examples!
🌷 Simone Biles. Gemini Moon in the 8th House. Her withdrawal from the Olympics for her mental health (Moon) was a hot topic of controversy for a while, but Biles used it to start a discussion (Gemini) about mental health for athletes, for which she is now an advocate (8H is often prominent for politicians and humanitarians).
🌷Lady Gaga. Gemini Ascendant (ruler in the 10th). Unlike the ever-changing Gemini stereotype, she’s very firm on who she is and what she represents. This particular decan (10 degree margin) of Gemini is known for boldness, taboo subjects, and “unprofitable words”. Her career was built from and built around taboo acts. She performed at neo-burlesques in her early career, her songs have a sort of risque quality, and her fashion sense is audacious. She’s been faced with constant criticism, but she’s learnt to take it and keep rolling, instead of falling into repression and repeating stagnant cycles, which are also characteristic of this part of Gemini.
🌷Anna Kournikova. Gemini Sun. Known for being both a tennis player and an actress, showing off both the dual nature and refusal to choose between two different choices that is characteristic of this decan of Gemini.
🌷Elon Musk. Gemini Ascendant, Saturn, and Venus. His ascendant is in the same decan as Lady Gaga’s, and we see the same theme of damning words, risky moves, and bold statements with him, but on the other side of the coin. He’s known for a lot of controversies involving spreading false information, including misinformation about Covid and claims that he had secured funding for a private takeover of Tesla (that he would be sued for). He gets himself into situations by opening his mouth, and seemingly can’t break that cycle. However, he does have the same quality of getting back up and staying in motion. He also seems to have a taste for acquiring a wide variety of companies, for example, SpaceX, Xcom, Tesla, and now Twitter.
🌷Drew Carey. Gemini Sun. Drew Carey has had a broad career. From several roles on TV shows, to game show host, to press photographer, to comedian. He tried out wrestling for a time as well. This third of Gemini loves a range of opportunity and things to try, as opposed to just two. Unfortunately, it’s also indicative of inner criticism (instead of criticism from others in the form of bullying), and we can see that in Drew’s battle with depression in his young adult years.

@moviedude87 i have no more time to dedicate to this ask, this is all im willing to offer for free! thanks for the ask, have a nice day! c:
(i would reply in a comment but this is a side blog)
What's up nice to see a new astro page...awesome!
Hi you have a nice cool informative page imo. Would you consider helping me figure a few things like my dominant planets and if i have creative/attractive placements? Is jupiter in 8th or 9th? Would moon trine venus still have influence even at 8°? Now finally in terms of compatibility, do you have women examples big 3 for me? https://i.ibb.co/FHgPPM9/astro-2gw-darren-marquardt-24316-116785.png
I wish I had money for a reading but not during this time sorry ha. While I would appreciate it, if not no problem. Thank you.
Hello! Thanks for taking an interest in my page. No worries about buying a reading, my books aren’t open right now anyway. I’m happy to give your chart a brief look over. I will be putting my own spin on this, though, because I specialize more in the events and experiences of a nativity. I am not well-practiced in synastry, so if you’re certain you want advice on sign compatibility, I’d suggest asking another astrologer. I also use a house system that definitely puts your Jupiter in the 8th, but in Placidus (the system you gave me), Jupiter is indeed in the 8th house by a matter of minutes, so make sure you have the exact birth time!
As for the Moon trining Venus, I want to note first that my program puts your Venus at 9 degrees, but that won’t change my answer, I thought I’d just let you know. The Moon’s range of effect is 13 degrees, so yes it does still aspect. However, the aspect is weak because the faster body, the Moon’s, aspect ray is cast after Venus, while coming before Venus in the motion of the planets around the zodiac. The stronger position would be for the faster body to be approaching the degree of the slower one. Ex. if your Moon was at 9 degrees instead, approaching the direct aspect with your Venus at 18 degrees. The influence is weak, but it’s still present. It has a stronger relationship with Saturn.
The strongest planets I’m seeing are the Moon (because it’s angular), Jupiter (because it’s in it’s own domicile), and especially Mars (because it’s also in it’s own domicile and in it’s own Decan). The Sun is also important to pay attention to as the ruler of your Ascendant.
Also, good news for creativity! You have Venus in the 5th house both in Whole Sign House (the system I use) and in Placidus, meaning Venus is in her joy in the house of creativity, fun, self-expression, and sex*. It is conjunct Saturn, the malefic of the opposite sect, and I wonder if you’re at all scared of art in some way. The ruler is in the 8th, so I’m curious if you’re scared of the way it might change you, or what you might find out about yourself. There’s rigidity added to the otherwise magnetizing Venus, as if she’d be reluctant to share and create. Perhaps you’re taking art too seriously as well. Sagittarius wants to explore and experience things, so let yourself do that. You have potential to grow a lot— Venus is not in terrible condition, she’s just a little suffocated. But the 8th house rulership and square wants you to get over a hump. My reading of that is that you’re having a hard time giving into the creative process and letting discovery happen, making things that maybe have no purpose other than fun. Venus, as a magnetizer, will be able to attract potential partners better, given some looser self-expression (5th house) and maybe a little uncertainty (8th house). The trine with the Moon in Leo also suggests that leaning into the generous nature of Leo might help this self expression, too, by aiding Venus directly and helping Saturn to do better work for you. The Moon is the ruler of your 12th, so I’m wondering if you’ve been a little selfish or greedy with your emotions, and that’s blocking the Moon’s full ability to connect and help out Venus? Have you been hiding your emotions too much, keeping them to yourself? Give yourself a little breathing room and remember that the people closest to you want to hear what’s going on in your mind. When someone gives you their heart, they want to see some of yours, too. Allowing yourself to connect through emotions, even expressing them with your body or physical presence somehow (1st House), will aid in Venus’s quest to create art and bring a partner close to her. Since Venus is in her joy, I have good hopes you’ll be able to make great art and have a fulfilling relationship. Your moon isn’t in terrible condition, either. Angular planets are a good thing, but it has a few humps to get over being the ruler of the 12th House.
Hope this helps!

@moviedude87 the sun is very influential on you because it rules your ascendant, but i like the condition of your mars better. your potential generosity, ability to take initiative (especially in higher learning), your determination and work ethic, ability to be adventurous, and any creative prowess you might unlock are all qualities I see in the planets that are involved in relations with others, love, and sexuality. lean into those to bring about their attractive nature. thats all i can say on the subject because love astrology is not my specialty ✨
edit: in traditional astrology you have no stelliums btw

A MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SATURN 🪐
guys saturn isn’t even a “bad” planet it just wants you to put the work in and not put out negativity to others. saturn rewards with hard work in the area of life it’s involved with in your chart and karma won’t come to you if you don’t do harm to anyone else but, y’all hoes just stay hating on others and that’s what gives you all these karmic lessons to deal with. it can be challenging but once the work is done in the area of life your saturn is involved with and you’ve been rewarded it’s worth it. if anything saturn wants to help you
i personally think uranus and neptune are the most difficult planets. that’s just my opinion though
