୨୧ Her big 3 ୨୧
Gemini Sun —Aquarius Moon —Leo rising
Despite being a highly intelligent, cultured, and well-read woman with a personal library of over 400 books, Marilyn Monroe's intelligence was often overlooked during her lifetime. Her curiosity and diverse interests are the things that I mostly attribute to her Gemini sun a sign that is known for being a "jack of all trades." Marilyn’s love for reading was a reflection of her intellectual curiosity. However, the media portrayed her as a one-dimensional figure, focusing solely on her physical appearance and labeling her as a bimbo and sex symbol. Marilyn Monroe's Aquarius moon greatly influenced her worldview and political beliefs. She was a strong advocate for equality, even during a time when it was considered radical to stand up for marginalized groups. For instance, she helped elevate Ella Fitzgerald's career by using her own influence to secure Fitzgerald a performance at a popular nightclub. Marilyn Monroe's Leo rising was a key factor in her becoming the iconic figure that we know today. A savvy businesswoman, she was skilled at reinventing herself to capture the public's attention. Her Leo rising was an extreme example of the placement, a placement associated with glamour, fame, beauty, and self-expression. Scorpio in the 4th house in her chart may have contributed to her difficult upbringing, including living in foster care and having a neglectful, alcoholic mother and an absent father. These challenging circumstances may have influenced her tumultuous love life. What I love about Leo risings in general is that no matter what they’re going through they’re able to wear a persona that shows the outside world otherwise, an example of that was when Marilyn came out of the hospital smiling to the photographers after she had a miscarriage.

✥ Key aspects in her birth chart ✥
A tumultuous childhood
Chiron in the 10th house —Pluto in the 12th house house —Saturn in the 4th house
Chiron: an individual’s greatest emotional wounds.
10th house: public image, reputation, structure, father, fame.
Pluto: an individual’s path to the dark night of the soul and through it. Destruction and regeneration.
12th house: solitude, institutions, confinement, mental illness.
Saturn: an individual’s accountability to their responsibilities. Restriction and limitations.
4th house: home, family, mother, roots.
It is absolutely fascinating to see that Marilyn had these placements in her chart. Chiron’s presence in the 10th house shows that she had to rely solely on herself for parenting and may have felt unwarranted guilt over her father leaving the family. This contributed to her never experiencing a normal childhood and being burdened with an excessive amount of responsibility at a very young age. Her struggles and troubles were evident to the public (the 10th house). The 10th house looks at the 4th house where her Saturn lies the planet of restriction, lessons and struggles in the 4th house the house of home family and the mother which offers insight into her home life and parents. Unfortunately, marilyn’s mother was mentally unstable and struggled with alcoholism, leading to her being institutionalized and unable to provide a stable home environment for Marilyn. As a result, Marilyn never felt safe in her home and lacked a consistent parental figure to rely on. Finally, Pluto in the 12th house, Pluto is the planet of transformation, destruction and rebirth, having this intense planet in this house was really difficult for her she struggled with her mental health all her life this Pluto placement in the 12th house indicated that she had to be put in a foster care because she had no one to take care of her. She had to bear an unreasonable amount of responsibility from a very young age.

Neptune conjuncts her ascendant— Lilith in the 1st house
This placement could help explain the public’s obsession with her and could be a driving factor behind the media’s portrayal of her as nothing but a beauty queen/sex symbol, often neglecting other qualities and talents. Since Neptune could indicate illusion, it’s possible that the way people idolized Marilyn was more based on a fantasy and imagination than reality— merely a projection of her but not the real her. Unfortunately, this skewed depiction of her is the cause of the public’s objectification of her which was deeply dehumanizing and debilitating for her mental health. Lilith in the 1st house might have felt to her like that her deepest wounds, insecurities and shame were crystal clear to her and were things that she might have been aware of constantly all the while being unmercifully sexualized by the media. She is naturally alluring that is what these placements essentially convey.
Tumblr media
Mars in pisces
This particular placement is another placement that furthermore made the media and the public objectify her. The Piscean influence in her chart highlights certain characteristics such as a tendency to repress anger which may led to her depression as reported by the close people around her that she would stay in bed & eat, that she wouldn’t shower for days and that her bed would contain food crumbs from all the times she ate on her bed without having the physical and mental strength to clean the room due to her depression. She had a perceived sense of victimhood she felt defeated by the media and the terrors of her past haunting her. Another angle of the illusion that this Piscean placement shows is people’s perception of her, the way they viewed her as a sex symbol despite her stating that she hates sex.
Tumblr media
Moon square Saturn
Having her moon in the 7th house squaring her Saturn in the 4th house shows how she tried to fill the void that was caused by her early childhood traumas by clinging onto the men that she was involved with. She might have looked for love in those men but also for her identity. She was an intelligent woman and she was enamored by her husband Arthur Miller who was a playwright who happened to be the first man in her life to validate her intelligence and took her and her hunger for knowledge seriously. Another man who happened to meet her and spend time with her stated that her whole life was a search for identity and that her sexual persona was a complete lie.

Super specific placements astro notes/rants
Usual disclaimer: take this with a grain of salt and only what resonates.
You can look at Chiron and the planets it touches to see conflicts/trauma regarding family remembers or people in general
Sun - father, masculine figures
Moon - mother, feminine figures
Mercury - siblings/cousins (not sure with this one)
Venus - feminine figures.
I want to elaborate on this one. I personally don't like assigning gender to placements, but energies. Feminine and masculine don't directly point to gender, only behavioural characteristics.
Mars - masculine figures
Jupiter - masculine/mentor figures
Saturn - authority figures (you may also look at the midheaven for this one, although its meaning is a little distorted)
That moment when you even hint at mercury-uranus, mercury-saturn, mercury-mc, mercury in the 1H/3H/6H/7H/9H/10H/11H that they are stupid 😀🔪 I am calling myself out with this one.
Mercury-uranus makes someone's intellect their pride, what makes them stand out. Mercury-saturn go through a lot of wrestling with how intelligent they are.
Mercury-mc suggests that they are known for their smarts, and they are truly pragmatic(they look up to intelligence as well).
Mercury in the 1st house makes intellect part of their core identity, meanwhile mercury in the 3rd is in its home, how can you insult something in its more comfortable place?
Mercury in the 6th may doubt their intelligence a lot, despite how logical they most likely are in their day to day life.
Mercury in the 7th brings rationality in their relationships, and its also something they are recognized for.
Mercury in the 9th, I have this one, really ties intellect to personal beliefs. Insulting their brains is like Insulting what they believe in.
Mercury in the 10th, just like mercury-mc. And mercury in the 11th house is also probably thought of as rational as well. Their friends know it, their community knows it.
Trines are lazy. These aspects give so much potential but it's so easy to lose focus with them, this is why I prefer sextiles over trines.
Your 12th house represents your dreams. Whatever you have on your 12th house can point to how your dreams are.
F.e I have moon in the 12th. My dreams tend to include lots of feminine figures and emotions. I also have capricorn on my 12th house, so routine and constant reminders of my responsibilities keep popping up
Scorpio on the 12th house may have nightmares often
Gemini/Sagittarius on rhe 12th may have very bizzare dreams.
Libra on the 12th may dream a lot about relationships
We tend to turn towards the opposite house we have our Chiron in.
9th house? The person may turn towards facts, logic and education (3rd house) to make up for their wounded beliefs (others may have said they're too drastic or simply stupid, or religious trauma etc)
1st house? We tend to turn to others (7th house)
4th house Chiron can indulge too much in their career or public image(10th house)
Not much of an astro note but, any other Libra venus in the 8th house here? I swear I could have been such a flirt if I had it in the 7th house or 9th, LMAO. 8th house venus kind of hides the venus sign's traits. Only when you get to know me I truly display the Libra qualities. Until then I am like :|
Also, talking about libra venus, I saw it get a lot of hate in the community despite it being one of the best venus placements objectively.
If anyone here has Virgo sun in the 7th, please focus more on yourself and less on what others think. It is indeed a quality to be considerate, but you also have to not lose yourself
The ascendnat doesn't only represent looks amd first impressions, but also your identity and self. I don't think ascendant aspects in synastry get a lot of credit, being shunned as superficial and simply physical attraction. I believe they are the representation of how the people involved see each other and shape their identity, what sides they bring out of each other.
I think that the best compability is shown by asteroid Juno. If someone has major or prominent sign placements as your juno sign, then you are most likely a good match (especially if it's mutual)
Mars in pisces may be passive, but don't confuse that with weakness. I noticed that most of the time these people tend to brush off or try to forget conflict, which in the end can actually be beneficial (most of the time, there are moments when confrontation is needed). While some may describe them as fickle, when developed they can be very resillient ngl.
You don't relate to the physical descriptions of your ascendant? That's totally fine! There can he multiple reasons for this, first one being that astrology cannot determine how we look, genetics do that, and second you should look at your ascendant aspects and other planets you have in the 1st house.
I have aquarius rising. Most descriptions say thay we're tall, meanwhile I'm here at 5'2, buuut I also have neptune in the 1st and ascendant conjunct chiron. I don't mean to discredit people who do these descriptions, they're actually accurate! My friend also has an aquarius rising and Uranus in the 1st and they look exactly like that--
I personally love the 5th house in astrology. Mine is empty but I've met some people with stelliums in it and my god they're so fun to be around!
5th house stelliums are naturally focused on hobbies, fun activities, children and the self (not necessarily inna selfsih way lmao). They are most likely very artistic and knowledgeable in their interests.
Many squares to the midheaven can point towards difficulty in reaching dreams, but also lots lots of potential. I've read somewhere that squares are blessings in disguise, so people with an extremely squared mc will have to go through a lot but it will definitely be worth it in the end.
Not much of a note again but I have an empty 10th house but a lot of focus on the 9th and 11th house. If anyone has these as well, are you career/project oriented but very little interested in the public eye?
If you really want to get into astrology, I recommend checking out your vedic chart. You get introduced to a bunch of new aspects and systems, but in the end I personally found the analysis I got very accurate. (You can check out @meandmypeace their blog is very insightful!)
Taurus risings are really down to earth, but I noticed they tend to space out a lot
Oh, you have a Leo venus? Let me tell you how cool you are. My bestie has this placement and my god they're one of the best people to offer comfort and affection. Their way of displaying it is very cute but also rather intense. It makes my libra venus go <3 they love attention and praise but they deserve it too lmao- when healthy they really care for the people close to them and are truly protective of them. Also side note, they may or may not pride themselves in the relationships they have
And that's it. Thanks for reading!
