The ffxiii fandom is lowkey my safe space when I see drama in other big fandoms I’m in. The ffxiii fandom may be small and we don’t get content like other fandoms do but it’s welcoming and people kinda just do their own thing and it’s fun and I love it so much, just coming after feeling the stress of other fandom drama and vibing with you all over the dumbest things, it’s such a nice feeling

vincent solaire’s zodiac chart

alright this is becoming a series now!! here is what i think vincent’s possible astrology placements could be (loose character analysis and astrology ramblings under the cut as per usual, i will try not to be repetitive in my explanations of different aspects of a chart but i want these posts to be as accessible as possible to people who dont know about astrology! that being said, if anyone has any questions or wants a further explanation please reach out and ask! i love talking about this stuff and being able to go into further detail about it is a treat <3)

masterlist to the series

sun- leo

moon- taurus

rising- sagittarius

mercury- cancer

venus- leo

mars- scorpio

before diving into the individual placements, i think its fitting here to look at the chart (and vincent) as a whole. vincent is The flirty vampire. he started as this flirty fuckboy-esque guy and has since shown himself to be So domestic and So mushy towards lovely. it’s important that his fuckboy placements know how to commit and it’s important that his domestic placements know how to be noncommittal. to be clear, the domestic placements are his moon and mercury and the rest i would consider to be fuckboy placements but ill go into that as we go!

vincent is a very much a leo sun. he is outgoing, friendly, loyal, and cares deeply about his loved ones. i know the leo stereotype is that theyre self-obsessed, and i think vincent definitely has his moments about his appearance, but leos are so much more than that. (plus the leo sun sets up the mercury and venus nicely) having the sun in leo means its in its domicile (meaning that leo is ruled by the sun which means its at home there!) and leo suns are very bright, not in an intelligent way (although they certainly can be smart) but i mean in a sunny way. they tend to be people whom others are drawn to.

dear sweet vin and his taurus moon <3 first and foremost, him and lovely cooking together is definitely a taurus moon’s way of showing love and spending time together. the big stereotype that tauruses complain about is them loving food, and i agree that its an overgeneralization BUT i know so many tauruses and i hate to say its true to a certain degree. taurus moons are very stable, emotionally speaking, and often act as emotional supports for people around them.

while the other placements i talk about in these posts are physical planets/luminaries (thats what the sun and moon are called, as they aren’t considered planets), your rising sign just refers to the sign that rules the first house of your chart. there are twelve houses, each ruling over a different aspect of your life/self/experiences. the first house is the house of self. it rules your basic identity and can have an influence on your physical appearance. it can also influence what kind of first impression you leave. that being said, vincent scaring lovely as a way of flirting with a stranger is such a sagittarius rising thing to do. ive talked before, in gavins post, about the duality of sagittarius. they can be impulsive and have a tendency to live in the moment to a negative extent. however, they also are super smart, adventurous, and love to learn. i think this is the perfect fit for vincent’s rising.

due to the nature of mercury, it can only be one sign away from the sun sign (or the same as the sun sign). this makes the options for a leo sun a cancer, leo, or virgo mercury. cancer mercuries are emotionally intuitive, which i think suits vincent. they care deeply about their loved ones and can be sensitive. they are also sentimental. they are in touch with their emotions. leo and virgo mercuries just dont have the same energy and wont suit vincent as well, in my opinion.

venus has a similar restriction to mercury in that it can only be the same as the sun sign or the two signs before or after. which makes the options gemini, cancer, leo, virgo, or libra. venus rules over love, relationships, and a persons sense of aesthetic. considering vincents entire character, his venus needs to be one that is both flirty and domestic. to me, the signs that would fit that criteria from that list would leo or libra. these are both very romantic signs, and either could fit to be honest. i personally prefer a leo venus for him, leo venuses are very showy with their love and affection and love to show off their partner. they are generous, warm, and quick to love.

if theres one thing about vincent, he is not afraid to fuck a bitch up (especially if lovely is involved). scorpio mars people can be very intense, this is because mars is in its domicile with scorpio (although mars is only the traditional ruler of scorpio, its modern ruler is pluto. mars is also the ruler of aries). scorpio mars are persistent and loyal. in my personal experience, they are slow to anger but once they are, it is a deep anger. (plus scorpio mars are stereotyped to be good at sex and i think thats canon for vincent)
