Tumblr media Tumblr media
take what resonates leave what doesn't!!
ur venus sign + house and aspects maybe even deegres can show ur love language ! (i will do maybe a post abt this in future with explaining :3) ☆°
mercury conjunction pluto/scorpio mercury/8H mercury are very interesting peoples tbh i love them sm im pisces mercury hehe and ... they are just so cool but they tend to not telling so much abt themself ! unless u have a gemini placements or smth that will causes oversharing ! ☆°
parallels/contraparallels are aspects that are not talked much abt and its so sad?? parallels are like conjunctions and contraparallels like opposition they are powerful major aspects i dont think that they are less powerful i have myself 0° degree sun parallel pluto, 0° asc parallel pluto, 0° asc parallel neptune, 0° mc parallel pluto, 1° mc parallel neptune, mercury parallel pluto 0° and i relate alottt to them !! and yes i read parallels like conjunctions and contraparallels like oppositions u can find which parallels/contraparallels u have on a astro.seek website ! have fun ☆°
gemini venus are not mean that u r a player/cheater in relationships i hate when peoples are talking shit when they dont know anything abt astrology 🚶🏼‍♂️🚶🏼‍♂️
2H can tell u what type of food u like eat for example a mars 2H/pluto 2H can enjoy spicy food but neptune 2H/moon 2H can dislike spicy food and uranus 2H can enjoy "weird" food or can be very open to experiment with different types of food but jupiter 2H can enjoy food from different cultures ! ☆°
2H also can tell u what u like to buy for example pluto 2H/neptune 2H maybe like buying spiritual/witchcraft stuffs like crystals, tarots or smth that have to do with psychology, astrology, paranormal, true crime ☆°
2H can alsooo tell u WHAT TYPE of people buying things u r for example virgo 2H will be very picky when its comes to buying things 2H capricorn/2H saturn can do this too hm but having 2H mars/2H aries/2H scorpio/2H pluto can mean that u r very impulsive when it comes to a buying things ! ☆°
helpp its gonna be a 2H observations or what .. but anyways 💀 .. i notice that people who have a cancer mars/4H mars/mars-moon (esp hard aspects) (hard aspects are : square, opposition, sometimes conjunction and quincunx (inconjunction)) u can tell when they are mad at u lmao idk i know so many cancer mars for example my ex is one and he was always very "dry texter" when he was mad at me 😭😭 and when i ask him if he is mad at me he was always saying that everything is ok 😡😡😡 ...... he was having also 11H mars ... so maybe u can relate when u have 11H mars/aquarius mars/mars-uranus too
11H saturn/11H chiron/11H neptune/11H pluto/11H lilith are very lonely placements.... u can have very small group of friends or no friends (its common with 11H saturn) with 11H neptune u can have many friends with some kind of addiction to smth or friendships that are fake but will act like they like u .. u can giving so much to a friendships and u can try help the wrong people with 11H chiron u feel like u dont belong to the group u r maybe always rejected when in group or u feel that way .. u was experience rlly bad friendships with 11H lilith its pretty much simillar and lastly with 11H pluto u can attract people who are jealous of what u have and what they dont literally maybe people hate u for no reason people maybe gossip alot abt u when u dont do nothing u can also attract very intense, self destructive and with mental health problems friendships at the worse scenario u can even experience a death of friend but yk what the all placements have in common feeling very lonely and empty even if u have so many peoples around u ur still experience loneliess and also bad experience with friendships are common in these placements :--( ☆°

Astro notes — 1.
Natal planets, degrees & asteroids.
Jupiter-Saturn people usually have big teeth. BTS Jungkook has Jupiter sextile his Saturn.
9°, 19°, 29°: all these degrees may have the tendency to be impulsive, as in going for all-or-nothing situations. the difference between 3 degrees are that the 9° has an impulsive nature, as in they value freedom and like spontaneity. 19° are willing to sacrifice stability for their ego/ their own satisfaction (e.g. to prove themselves). 29° people are willing to sacrifice their emotional needs, or the community for their all-or-nothings.
24°: escapsim.
25°: art. artistic abilities, particularly drawing. anything related to visuals, performing, portraying.
26°: seeking harmonial environments.
27°: illusion, subconcious work, intuition, imagination
28°: long-term effects. TW traumas surrounding parents, mother/fatherhood, the public. mother/father could be old or not prominent in one’s life.
The more Neptune is involved one has in parallel/contraparallel aspects, the more gossips and talks will wander around your reputation. It is supposed to give you a little effect on society.
Most billionares have Cancer placements in their charts.
2H suggests relationships that bring width. 8H suggests relationships that bring depth.
Asteroid Eri (1402) tells you what blessings you bring into life.
North Node aspects in Synastry
Sun-North Node: A relationship that’s meant to make each other shine. North Node person helps the Sun to recognize their worth, while Sun person teaches NN person to follow their own path.
Moon-North Node: A relationship where both parties experience deep feelings. Both parties teach e/o to deal with their emotions, whether to be more vulnerable or to stand up for themselves.
Mercury-North Node: A relationship where words are needed. Both parties teach e/o to word themselves. They help each other gain more knowledge. A fast-paced relationship.
Venus-North Node: A relationship full of attraction. While Venus is known for her romantic nature, she can be pretty demanding and has high standards. This is a relationships where partners keep spoiling each other, and teach them valuable lessons regarding relationships.
Mars-North Node: Definitely indicates tension bewteen two parties. They inspire each other to do what they want in life, and also standing up for themselves. Could indicate either a very passionate bond or, negatively manifesting to having lots of conflicts. Might workout together.
Jupiter-North Node: A relationship that was meant to expand both parties. North Node person feels like their motives become clearer with Jupiter’s help, and Jupiter person feels like they are able to achieve so much just by being around the NN person. A relationship where philosophies and discussions happen, may travel together a lot, but can be superficial.
Saturn-North Node: A relationship where both parties establish boundaries and discipline. Saturn person helps North Node to find their sense of responsibility, while North Node person helps Saturn to acknowledge more about themselves and the circumstances in their life. May indicate a long-term relationship if Saturn is not afflicted.
Neptune-North Node: A nostalgic relationship, is what best to describe this aspect. A relationship where it reminds you of memories, or create ones that seem a bit.. foggy or perhaps, dreamy. A relationship where both parties encourage each other to have wilder thoughts than just the current reality, a relationship where things might be unclear but you are so attracted and attached to it somehow.
Uranus-North Node: A relationship where sudden changes happen the longer it goes. Kinda like a best friends to lovers trope in books, these two people enjoy having eccentric ‘things’ in their bond. Eccentric dates, approaches to life, conversations, etc. Both parties will teach each other to be flexible and sometimes reckless.
Pluto-North Node: Feels like a deep soul connection. Lots of transformations happening surrounding the two people and also within themselves. This could lead to obssession, manipulation, over-stimulation whether it’s the Pluto person (usually) or the North Node person.

how would you describe my future spouse?
⅄ ◌ 🐏 ˖ Your future spouse ♡
Cards: the seven of pentacles – the nine of cups (reversed) – the queen of wands.
Your future spouse is definitely very hardworking, they never really give up and know how to persevere. They have a vision for the future and pay attention to details. They're definitely someone worth investing in. They might have gone through a phase where they really hated themself and they might come off arrogant at first, I'm pretty sure it's because they're shy. They might feel like their hardwork doesn't pay off the way they'd like it to :(. The both of you might be a very romantic couple, I'm also getting really deep attachment. They might be perceived as someone self centred and selfish, I'm not getting them being like that though infact I think they're really selfless, they just end up acting like they cannot get hurt to protect their pride. I'm not getting them trying to be a macho alpha man or anything but it's more like they don't like receiving pity, they feel like people are making fun of them. They might have a really bad love life, I'm getting they might have venus opposite or contraparallel pluto, they end up going after unavailable partners so that they don't really have to commit completely and can have a certain level of independence and freedom. "I had all my motives, I didn't know they wouldn't mix with your emotions, I just had to reach my goal, never knew I needed you though." Damn, this person seems to be a high achiever in general but especially when it comes to something that they really love. They care a lot about how other people perceive them. They're also kind of never really satisfied 😭. It's funny because people think that they're a high achiever and lazy at the same time. They seem to fear your person's ambition and might feel inferior to them but at the same time think that they don't work hard? I'm getting your person really moving in silence. They care a lot about the superficial things in life like the way others perceive them, how good their partner looks, how much money they have, how rich people think they are and stuff. They might be someone who hustles to get what they want and when they get it, they realize that it's not fulfilling ☠️ I kinda feel bad for them, ngl. People might often abuse their generosity, however, they unconsciously do the same 😭. They try to be as fair as possible though. Yk, people tend to poke them and try to provoke them until they lose their calm and when they eventually burst, people act as if they're the bad person. They seem to be really self aware though. I'm getting them being fine with being a villain in someone else's story as long as they think that they did the right thing. They're actually very helpful and kind too. They're confident and try to be as independent as they can. They will likely be in a stable place when you meet them. They might have had a dominating mother figure, might have been a grandmother though. They are pretty strategic, they treat everyone well but they especially try to flatter people who are a form of guaranteed helpfulness in any way. They try to be a good friend and have good social skills. They love money, power and status. They also desire control. They are confident and are there like "I know who I am, why does how others view me matter so much?" That's how they feel about others hating on them for useless matters, like things they've never done, people talking shit about them and stuff, however, they want to be seen as powerful, good-looking and respectable even by people who hate them.
⅄ ◌ 🐏 ˖ Your aura/personality ♡
Cards: the six of cups (reversed) – the knight of pentacles (reversed) – the knight of swords (reversed).
You might be someone naive regardless of whether or not you see yourself in that light. You also have unrealistic expectations especially when it comes to people. You might have not had a solid emotional support while growing up, I'm getting you being really dreamy as a kid? You might have imagined being born in a different family, etc. I'm getting you really longing to fit in, right from a very young age :(. I'm getting you also feeling really homesick. You might have let others take advantage of you atleast up to the age of fifteen, very specific but lol. You have a personality where it's easy for people or events from the past to stir up your emotions. You might have gotten betrayed by someone in the past. You might be slow when it comes to taking actions and might be physically as well. You go to extremes, all work, no play or all play, no work. You might be actively trying to change it though. You might be impatient and might struggle with finishing what you started? You might sometimes end up acting kind of mindless. You might feel restricted by routine but at the same time kind of want it? It's like you want to feel organized and stuff but want to live really freely at the same time. You also seem to be a perfectionist. You might come off kind of arrogant too. I feel like you are a good manipulator. You might be seen as someone who can really hurt people with your words. People don't know what to expect from you. You come off very passionate and reckless. Also your energy seems to be all over the place, I think it's because you're focused on multiple things. You might be good at arguing, I'm not sure if you know it though. People think that you're constantly on the go and don't mind stepping on others to get what you want, however, you don't seem to hold personal grudges against anyone which really intrigues people.

parallels & contraparallels
A planet’s declination is its position in northern or southern relation to the celestial equator. Declinations add another layer to the natal chart, beyond the Zodiac wheel / ecliptic, and come with their own two major aspects: the parallel and contraparallel. These aspects are virtually identical to conjunctions and oppositions both in energy and calculation, except they exist on the north-south axis (above/below celestial equator) instead of along the east-west (Zodiac).
A contraparallel takes place between two planets whose declinations are at approximately the same degree on different sides, one north and one south, whereas a parallel takes place between two planets whose declinations are at approximately the same degree on the same side, both north or both south.
To locate the parallels & contraparallels in your natal chart, you can use the chart calculator on astro-charts.com (select “Show Declinations” in settings).
The reason a 1° orb is used for declination aspects is because they present themselves on a much more limited plane than Zodiac aspects; the former only has a range of 47 degrees, while the latter has 360 degrees, where orbs of up to 10° are realistic and usually necessary. Contra/parallels are naturally extremely potent, within such a small field of variation, so in order to gain any meaningful insight from their presence, it’s crucial to keep the standards high. If the orb was increased to, say, 3°, you may find that every planet is in a contra/parallel in one’s natal chart. It’s obvious how & why that becomes inapplicable.
Most astrologers interpret parallels & contraparallels in the same way you would a conjunction or opposition aspect between planets in the Zodiac, and that’s valid, but it’s important to note that the meaning of conjunctions & oppositions is based in the relationships between archetypes, while contra/parallels are free of Zodiac influence -- they focus completely on the planets themselves. Because of this, you may have (for example) a contraparallel in a pair of signs which border each other in the Zodiac. It’s important to synthesize your declination aspects with the rest of your natal chart to offer context for their contact. In addition, it’s also helpful to recognize that when separate from the Zodiac (which represents the 12 fundamental manifestations of human consciousness), the planets aren’t as personal; they become less like forces of personality and more like forces of circumstance or reality. For this reason, sometimes parallels & contraparallels are not expressed as intensely in a person as they are in their life story / the themes of their experience (though they still may have strong impact on either).

Mercury Pluto Aspects
Taken from the Late, Great and disabled Astro Arena, not my original work but impossible to find on the web these days. If anyone knows if the former owner of the Astro Arena blog has a Tumblr or link I can give credit to please DM or comment. I haven't been able to access their writing in many years and any information on where to access it would be appreciated.
I wish to look in detail at the Mercury – Pluto combination, which in keeping with allapplications of Pluto evinces a range of difficult effects, most especially because until the behaviour is recognised and reconciled it creates a compulsion, which will be especially uncomfortable for the subject. Inevitably this difficulty and discomfort will affect important relationships too and ultimately – as with any Plutonic contact – the aspect must be transformed to prevent it becoming ultimately destructive. Aspects to Pluto from any of the personal planets are profoundly problematical, but as ever, the first and most effective step on the path to cure must be to recognise the behaviours and take responsibility for them. Owning up to our Plutonic compulsions, shining light upon them – uncomfortable though it may be – is often powerfully effective in transforming them: indeed, in many cases an “instant cure” is entirely possible.
Mercury Pluto, in keeping with other applications of Lord Hades deals with hidden, sinister and subtle aspects of communication and of course the mental processes that underpin them. Indeed, the entire arena of interpersonal communications is fraught for Mercury – Pluto, usually because of an early childhood that is characterised by difficulty, cruelty or power-games in communication matters. We shall explore these causal themes in the ensuing discussion, but first I would like to examine some of the specific effects.
Mercury Pluto is the aspectual manifestation of Mercury in Scorpio, which is renowned for being either verbose or rather monosyllabic. This implies nothing about the underlying mindset or facility for language or mental processing, but only the willingness or unwillingness to reveal the self. This is reflected perfectly by the aspects between Mercury and Pluto, most especially with the conjunction and to a lesser extent the easy aspects there is a loquacious response to the contact: these people talk, often exhaustively although without necessarily revealing much of substance about themselves. Conversely, those with hard aspects are not likely to give too much away, or at the very least – while they may talk freely – they are never comfortable talking about themselves in a way that is particularly incisive or revealing. In either case it boils down to a profound fear of communication and a sense that somehow words can cause pain and lasting damage. With the easy aspects there is not the same urgent sense of danger, but nevertheless there is a need to control the conversation which is engendered by the same mindset as the individual with the hard aspects. Often the Pluto conjunct Mercury person will talk exhaustively and exhaustingly, and the ‘listener’ will often walk away feeling tired and somewhat overwhelmed by the experience. In any case, the process of communicating, with easy aspects or hard, is uncomfortable for both parties involved in the dialogue.
It should be remembered that any aspect between Mercury and Pluto will evince one or other of these effects. For my own part I am extremely familiar with Mercury – Pluto as I have Mercury in Scorpio, peregrine and semi-square, contraparallel and in mutual reception with Pluto, I can speak from experience as to its effects.
With the hard aspects especially, the sense of difficulty with communication creates an observer rather than a participator. Here is somebody who is aware of every subtle nuance of communication and is typically deeply distrustful of words. Usually it will be found that Mercury – Pluto grew up in an environment where truth was taboo, and one or both parents will have been the murky wellspring from which this skewed sense of things was first experienced. It is also possible that an older brother or sister was the cause of the problem or some difficult secret in connection with that sibling or one that haunted and tainted the family environment in some way might be found to be in evidence. On a fairly simplistic level, the Mercury Pluto child will have learned early on that words were not to be trusted at face value. The resentful and controlling mother who would tell her child: “of course I love you darling, more than anything in the world” while evincing no genuine or believable warmth is one good example of this effect. There is then a dichotomy here, between words and more subtle forms of non-verbal communication that have poisoned the child’s perceptions. Body language, ever a reliable indicator of true feelings, is therefore valued much more highly than any simple verbal statement, but this again is fraught with difficulty. The Mercury – Pluto person is formed in such away that they are innately suspicious of any communication: this is very often sensed by others, who feel that they are “on the spot” somehow, and their body language will betray their discomfort which will in turn set off the ultra-sensitive radar of Mercury – Pluto. This can create a cycle of suspicion, distrust and interrogation that is especially exhausting within close relationships later in life.
Therefore, the Mercury – Pluto type is often handicapped in life by being too perceptive and it is through this mechanism of not being able to take things at face value and exhausting oneself and others by continually investigating the most subtle of interactions that the damage is done.
The child learned to do things this way because of the unreliability of close family communications. Language may have been used to damaging effect by a parent or sibling, secrets were kept and wielded almost politically within the early home environment and this actually characterises very neatly the quality of this combination for the afflicted. Words cannot ever mean what they say, there is usually a hidden agenda, an ulterior motive, a secret being kept: indeed this is exactly the case in the childhood home, but the problem is that the child grows up and takes this same understanding out into the world and applies it indiscriminately to every relationship in the whole of life from then on.
But there is a more profound realisation here too. It is not actually so much what is said that concerns Mercury – Pluto, but indeed what is  not said. This creates an anxiety about communication that is really very disturbing: this is why the native talks so much (in the conjunction or easy aspect), not because they have anything much to say, but because they are terrified of the silence and what it might mean. The child will no doubt have been controlled with lack of communication as much as the use of ugly, brutal or cruel language. A parent or sibling may have ostracised or ignored the child as a means of creating an emotional anxiety, or made vague, open-ended threats which would have created a sense of foreboding and impending anguish all with the express purpose of eliciting control.
There is too a legacy of damaging secrets in the early home which would have reinforced this sense of anguish, very often there are half-brothers or sisters who are kept secret or in some other way separate from the rest of the family. There may also have been other secrets relating to siblings which, when revealed created anxiety in the native: I have seen cases where a more favoured sibling is secretly given money or some other treat or benefit by a parent unbeknown to the Mercury Pluto child and when this is learned the assurances by the parent that they love their children equally become hollow and suspect.
At its best, and transformed, Mercury Pluto makes an excellent researcher and psychologist. Able to delve into the deeper and more innate realities of interaction they can often see cause where others cannot; they see the subtle motivations that are in fact pre-cognitive, and in a very real sense they do not need the words to arrive at an understanding. In fact, the Mercury – Pluto person can often be frustrated at the depth of their understanding because words are ultimately a rather blunt instrument when trying to convey the profundity of their insight and this creates another signature of the contact of course: Mercury Pluto despises the superficial and capricious. Intense and insightful, but with a need to avoid obsessing, Mercury Pluto is a natural researcher and student of human nature and motivation, they make excellent counsellors and – once the aspect is transformed – powerful and persuasive communicators who are able to see into the heart of any matter.

Hi Scorp! I just have to tell you I've been on this site for a while and I'm so glad to come across someone's page that breaks astrology down so succinctly and in a fun and personal way. I wish more people we like you- you're a gem! I'd like to get started too and want to know in your opinion what the signs of a good astrologer are and how one can become one? Your help is as always so appreciated! I really admire you!
Thank you, love- Good Question
Signs of A Good Astrologer
1. They Understand Multiple Systems
Now, not every astrologer will use them. Some are more comfortable with Vedic, others Placidus, some Quadrant or Draconic and a few Horary or Equal House. Regardless, they’ll be able to entertain all kinds even if they subscribe to another/one in particular.
2. They Can Read A Natal Wheel
I know this may sound like a given but some folks who get into astrology just use a calculator or generator to pull up aspects and chart patterns. They won’t actually look at the wheel and see where planets land or how to work their way around the circle. They may not understand the red lines from the green or blue. It’s important to not only rely on a calculator but understand the wheel as a blueprint. You can catch many things and see many aspect patters [T-Squares, Grand Trines Yods, etc] with the naked eye. The natal wheel is the birth chart in its raw form. Anyone studying anything must begin with the basics. The wheel, fresh-faced is the best place to start. From there, the 101′s of Astrology become easier to grasp
3. They Do Not Rely On One  App Alone
The sign of any good astrologer [or anyone studying anything] is citing multiple sources and cross-referencing them. As we all know, technology, though an excellent modern tool is imperfect. It too can have glitches and miscalculations. For that reason, it’s important as an astrologer to at least have 2 to 3 calculators [including their own brain and hands] to break things down. This gives a better-rounded view of how charts work and can even introduce you to aspects you didn’t realize existed [parallels, contraparallels, etc]. Cafe Astrology is good for beginners but does not show you minor aspects [Quincunxes, sesquiquadrates, noviles or bi-quintiles] or chart patters like Astro.com does. Co-Star is good for millennials who are just starting and does a fantastic job of giving you a daily horoscope as well, but can really f-things up house-wise. [They are based out of NY and I rejected a job offer from them because of it.] Alabe.com is Ok but they make you input longitude and latitude which not everyone has access to and sometimes it just won’t take. Still, without cross-referencing you’d never know. Cast your net wide so you can get the best return.
4. They Understand Natal, Synastry, and Composite
While it’s important to understand how someone’s natal chart functions and relates to them as a person, or placements in general, we as Human Beings are social creatures. We operate in tribal, familial and unit systems. As a result, it’s important to know how people operate with each other as well as individually. A good astrologer will understand Synastry [aspects/energy between people] and Composite [midpoint and Davison, which is the Astrology of the relationship itself] in addition to Natal patterns.
5. They Have a Good Grasp of History
Mercury, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto? All names of Ancient God’s. When we understand the origins of these Planetary names, we can have a good grasp as to why they’re attributed to said planets/points. Modern planets are named after Roman Gods who all have ties to ancient Greece/India as well. When you understand the myths and stories you’ll already have a head start on why Venus is named after Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love, since Venus rules love and what we appreciate. Mars [Aries] is the planet of war, sexual drive and action as is the Hellenistic/Roman God. Lilith is Adam’s first wife in Hebrew tradition and her hypothetical point in astrology embodies her traits. Make sense? Even the asteroids are named after minor gods and characters in the classics. Studying up on these can really help with understanding the planets as a whole.
6. They are Patient
Let’s face it, understanding astrology is not something that comes over night. It is also quite difficult to find in-depth classes for the study. Because of this, it is important for you or any astrologer for that matter to take their time. Don’t rush. Some can spend a lifetime studying and never know all there is to know. I myself learn new things everyday that I share with you all on here. Take your time. Be patient. Astrology is deeply metaphorical, philosophical as well as mathematical. Some may have a stronger grasp with one than another [as a former humanities major, I personally detest math but I’ll be damned if that makes me give up- I keep trying]. A good astrologer will give themselves and others grace to really grasp the concepts they are learning and know that it is not a 24 our crash course.
Red Flags 
With the good comes the bad/things many can work on to improve. The sign of an astrologer not living up to their full potential are:
1. Astrologers That Only Say Good Things About Your Sign
Let’s face it, astrology is not a study for those who like to sugar coat. The reality of life is that everything has a dark and light side. Just like every zodiac sign has positive and shadow traits. [Though I am a Scorpio and very loyal to my sign and people, I feel it necessary if I am to help others, to make them understand the under-developed traits of Plutonians/Martians in general.] You gotta keep it real. It is important to be honest. That is the only way to get to your sign’s final form. To understand what traits you/your sister signs/cousins are prone to. 
2. Astrologers That Point Out Troublesome Placements Without Telling You How to Remedy Them
Big No-No. Astrology is about activism and altruism. It, by nature, is a study quite akin to Psychology. One of my heroes, Liz Greene actually based many of her astrological studies off Jungian psychology. And what is astrology if not psychology with a cosmic twist? ;). A good therapist will isolate your issues but the point in hiring them is for them to aid you in fixing the issues you’re struggling with, no? Same with a good astrologer. They’ll tell you when something is an issue, yes, but they will also give tips and pointers on how to handle the energy or steps to reconciling the energy within your self and others. If someone is simply pointing out that you’re a Capricorn with a Taurus moon and therefore, have pessimistic tendencies, but don’t tell you how to balance that, then they are not doing the best job they can for you.
3. Astrologers That Demonize a Single Sign or Placement 
Or astrologers who are inherently judgmental about your tendencies [many Boomers unfortunately I’ve seen have a habit with this *sigh*]. This is also a No-No. Look, we are all entitled to our own opinion and there is dark and light in each astrological placement. But someone who says “all Pisceans are whiny-crybabies”, “all Virgos are obsessive compulsive critics” or “All Leos are egotistical cheaters” is not someone you want to take very seriously, lol. Sounds like these people got hurt by one of the above and as a result, have a war on everyone with these placements. By proxy, they use astrology to let out their frustrations which is a very twisted way to go about things. We all vibe with one sign or placement more than another of course, but even your fav may have a Mars placement in a sign you though you hated. It is best to be impartial and look at ALL aspects and ALL signs with fairness. The point of astrology is to understand. Once you understand someone or something it’s quite hard to be judgmental [if you’re really going about it with an open-mind]. Just like traveling or spending time with others different from you makes it impossible to be a racist or a bigot. Why? Because you took the time to really connect.
Anyone can become an astrologer with the right discipline and a good amount of grit and curiosity. I think you have the right attitude on how to go about it ;). Here are a few helpful resources to get you started:

sorry to bother u, could u explain why persona charts aren’t real?? i tried to answer the question myself by googling but i couldnt rly find anything.
Hey thanks for being so polite. You can ask me anytime. I appreciate you trying to google as well. I just reblogged some stuff that kind of cinches in how minute this part of astrology is: To the degree many long-term astrologists don't use or know what this is. I swear I had a post of a twitter thread speaking of the origins of persona charts being very vague and overall like an accident that barely means anything. But if that doesn't mean anything to you, that's fine. Use it as you like I'm not the police by any means.
I will put the astro.com def for you here, so I can just talk about my opinion after: "We can treat this horoscope like a normal horoscope, but we have to keep in mind that it is not our chart, but the chart of this one person within us. We have to take care not to take this horoscope for the whole. Persona charts are horoscopes of independent personalities - we cannot stress this often enough. Personalities inside me."
What are you chasing after in astrology? I like to believe it's a greater understanding of yourself. Seeing yourself and your struggles written somewhere so you can feel like everything I've felt in my life has a language and words for it. Granted, perhaps people can see that in their persona chart. But as the definition states, persona charts are Not Our chart. It's a piece of a brick that could mean anything and it's "in you" or whatever it means. I personally don't believe it.
Astrology has the greatest and deepest meaning through the interplay of your entire chart. We all subscribe to some sort of cookbook astrology bc you can't read everyone's details for them online for free. However, everyone who has been studying astrology is still working out how all of these positions, aspects, orbs etc play with each other to make the unique experience of Your life. It's not about the ingredients. Its about the chemistry between them that make you.
In any other field, like psychology or medicine, your doctor will tell you that one symptom is not going to mean you have this. You need 3 or more symptoms and how they react with each other to mean something significant. Perhaps it's my ignorance to be fair, but what are the persona charts telling you?
One persona chart is a small factor in an overarching field of astrology that is entirely based on your unique interplay of everything having in your chart. And there is so many factors in astrology recognized already that you have to consider: orbs, modalities, aspects, houses, interceptions, detriments, contraparallels , etc. But they all have to do with reading the same chart, reading the important connections that see you. Why are you reading a chart of one part one factor of your chart? Just don't lose yourself in a tree to forget the ecosystem of the forest. Lawl is that how the saying goes. Anyways, yea I just don't subscribe to it.
There's also a part of me that thinks persona charts are ego based. Wild thought.

i have moon square & contraparallel uranus both at 0°, is there really no reconcile between these two energies..? i feel like these two cause a large tear inside of me, but i’m not sure if i can ever fix this especially taking uranus into consideration
re: moon sq and cp uranus anon — my taurus moon is in the 1st and aquarius uranus is in the 10th so yes.. this is kind of big for me 😬
Yknow, this is a really tough one. You’ll figure it out in your own time though. I can’t really give you an answer regarding Uranus though because the solution to its “problems” will always be highly individual for the native. Something that I’m going to point out though is that since Uranus has ingressed into Taurus you’re going to be given a unique out due to the exacerbation of the aspect. The coming years are likely to be quite uncomfortable for you unless you can learn to embrace change and instability. Astrologer Kelly Surtees says that under a heavy Uranian transit you should be wary of making plans too far into the future. Instead think in increments of the next few months and leave yourself wiggle room rather than boxing yourself into a corner at any point. At the very least this transit will shine a big ol’ light on what you need to do in order to deal with this stuff long term… whether or not you pay attention and integrate those lessons though.. that’s up to you.

HEARTBREAK TRANSITS
Misunderstandings abound during Heartbreak Transits.
Transits refer to transiting planets which are the planets in the sky at any moment and how they relate to the position of the planets when you were born.
There are two types of Heartbreak Transits.
One involves Saturn and one involves Venus. Both involve Chiron.
Chiron is the planet of committed relationships, emotional ties, reputation, publicity and charisma. The Magi Society says it represents marriage and career.
Some transits are easy. The 120 degree (trines) and 60 degree (sextiles) angles made from planets in the sky to your natal planets are transits that enhance your natural abilities. The time period when these transits prevail are as comfortable as sitting in front of the TV in your favorite rocking chair.
Difficult transits however show a conflict of some kind.
Difficult transits are angles formed by transiting planets to natal planets that jar you out of your comfort zone. Angles of 90 degrees (squares) or 180 degrees (oppositions) from a transiting planet to a natal planet are an experience similar to someone handing you a scalding hot, filled to the brim cup of tea as you are rocking back and forth in your favorite rocking chair.
It is necessary to possess a great deal of poise and balance to deal with difficult transits and avoid a painful mess.
SATURN AND CHIRON – THE HEARTBREAK TRANSIT
The best known Heartbreak Transit is a difficult transit from Saturn to natal Chiron, but could be a conflicted transit from the Saturn/Chiron midpoint to the natal Sun or Chiron. This represents a time when you can be viewed in the worst possible light by others and are in danger of making major mistakes.
This is also a time when past mistakes can be brought to light and cause problems that impact your reputation.
For instance, the telephone bill you forgot to pay may show up on your credit report.
Or the speeding ticket you received 10 months ago prevents you from getting the best rates on a new car insurance policy.
Since Chiron rules your ability to attract publicity and charm others you may be in the spotlight during these transits. You are more likely to be criticized and censured because every flaw is highlighted. If you break the rules you will receive attention but it won’t be good attention.
For example, if you exceed the speed limit on the highway you are more likely to receive a speeding ticket. Your ability to charm others is severely hampered so you won’t get off with a warning.
Your career or job can even be at risk if you do not fulfill commitments to the letter.
There is another danger with this type of Heartbreak Transit when emotional or romantic relationships are involved. During a Heartbreak Transit the people you love may treat you badly or only see your least attractive side. You may feel that the commitment and trust between you and another person has been compromised or vice versa. You run the risk of overreacting. If you slam the door on your way out that door is very likely to be locked when you try to return. You or a loved one may wish to break off a relationship when loyalty and commitment have been tested and proved to be lacking.
A very good relationship can survive, but it is important not to initiate anything of great importance or make drastic changes during a Heartbreak Transit.
If you break off a relationship under these conditions it will be much like Humpty Dumpty and all the king’s horses and all the king’s men will not be able to put it together again.
VENUS AND CHIRON - THE BREAKUP TRANSIT
The other type of Heartbreak Transit is a transit of Chiron that makes a difficult angle to natal Venus. This is called a “BREAKUP” transit because you or a loved one may wish to break off the relationship when it has been demonstrated that loyalty and commitment have been compromised.
The main issue of this difficult transit is one of trust.
Once trust is broken it might not be easily repaired.
This transit disturbs the harmony of social ties as well as emotional ties. It represents misunderstandings and the possibility that key relationships –both romantic and business -will experience severe ups and downs. A business partner or boss might find your impulsiveness or social activities to be less than desirable.
During this transit your social instincts are off base. Because you may be attracted to the latest fads and have a yen for excitement you might be drawn to people and things that are simply not good for you. Meanwhile, you are repelled by those people who are good for you.
You might even have the urge to break off a good relationship to try something new which will disrupt your life and create heartache.
During this Heartbreak Transit your reputation can suffer and your charisma is at a low point. This is very poor time to ask for a promotion, to change jobs, or to take major steps that could impact your career or reputation.
This transit is less likely to cause long term damage than the Saturn transit to natal Chiron, but it can shake up even the best relationship or career and cause a rift and adverse publcity.
A very good relationship can survive a Break Up Transit, but it is important not to initiate anything of great importance or make drastic changes.
WHAT TO DO
Throughout any Heartbreak Transit your charisma and ability to impress the public is at a low point. Take no risks with your heart or your money.
The best advice is to sit on your hands, avoid giving in to impulse and wait until this difficult transit is over before beginning anything new, making drastic decisions or significant changes.
WHICH OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHER?
It is necessary to differentiate a transit from Saturn TO natal Chiron from a transit of Chiron TO natal Saturn.
Likewise, there is a difference between a transit from Chiron TO natal Venus and the transit of Venus TO natal Chiron
These are not the same.
Transiting Venus makes angles and difficult transits TO natal Chiron several times in the course of a year. These last just a few days. For lack of a better term it can be called a “BAD HAIR DAY” transit as you are temporarily in a charisma downturn.
But the transit of Chiron TO natal Venus can take a month or more, therefore this is more significant.
In a similar way transiting Chiron may take a month to complete a transit TO natal Saturn. It is still problematic, but it is not a Heartbreak Transit. Saturn moves much more slowly so its transit TO natal Chiron, which is the Heartbreak Transit, can sometimes cover months.
Additionally a difficult transit from Saturn to ANY natal planet always has the potential to create serious problems and setbacks.
A transit from Chiron TO natal Saturn represents passing impulsiveness and attractions that can create additional burdens or point out a lack of self-discipline.
EXAMPLES
REPUTATION SMASHING SCANDAL: A public scandal for Illinois Democrat Governor Rod Blagojevich (born December 10, 1956) erupted when he was arrested on corruption charges on December 9, 2008. Transiting Chiron was square his natal Venus. Impeachment proceedings were begun within few days.
BAD TIME TO FILE FOR A DIVORCE : Super Model Christie Brinkley filed for a divorce from architect Peter Cook in early September 2006 while Saturn was contraparallel her natal Chiron. The divorce proceedings made headline news and the top ten lists of the nastiest celebrity divorce cases. Brinkley filed for divorce after she learned of Cook's affair with his 18-year-old assistant. The breakup got even nastier when Brinkley insisted on public coverage of the trial. It took until October 2008 for the divorce to become final.

Astrology Cafe Daily Astrology ABOUT TODAY DAILY MONTHLY CHART You are here: Home / Daily Astrology / Astrology of Today – Wednesday, January 10, 2018 Astrology of Today – Wednesday, January 10, 2018 Jan 9, 2018 by Annie Leave a Comment  The Moon is in Scorpio. The Moon is waning and in its Last Quarter phase. The Last Quarter Moon occurred on the 8th and the New Moon will occur on January 16th. Mercury ends its post-retrograde shadow today. **Times are Eastern Standard Time (EST). Horoscopes Aries  Aries The Moon spends the day in your intimacy sector, dear Aries, and you feel the need to connect more deeply to your innermost feelings, to a person, or to a project. It’s a time of the lunar cycle for pouring concentrated energy into something relevant or meaningful to you. You’re in a particularly good position to see a project or relationship more clearly today. You’re likely to get news on a matter that pushes things forward after a long wait. Taurus  Taurus This can be a particularly relationship-focused day for you, Taurus, and those things that have come out of balance can be set right, as you see them more clearly. You are inclined to seek out harmony and peace now, and you’ll go to great lengths to achieve these things. This is also a time for catching up on matters related to loans, debts, and relationships, as new information comes in or blocks are released. Thinking is clear. Gemini  Gemini You’re inclined to want to put things into order today, dear Gemini. It’s a good time to deal with the details of your plans or the daily routines that keep your life in smooth working order! Also today, there is good energy for seeing a relationship matter more clearly. You may get word or a clear sign that things are moving forward now. Conversations can also clear the air or bring better definition to current affairs in your life. Cancer  Cancer This is a good time to feel confident about your plans or to have a sense that things are moving forward, dear Cancer. Decisions that were a long time coming might be made now with a clearer mind or all the right information. Delays on a matter, mainly related to work or health, may finally lift. The Moon spends the day in your fun and creativity zone, however, and this transit encourages a playful approach to the day. You’re in an excellent position to create something unique or simply to enjoy some extra leisure time. You’re likely to feel more decided than usual now. Leo  Leo You’re taking your duties and chores a little more seriously today, dear Leo, making it quite excellent for straightening out an area of your life that needs attention or for setting goals for health and wellness. Today’s thinking is unusually clear and realistic, and a matter related to fun, romance, or children may be clarified. Decisions feel easier to make than usual now. The Moon spends the day in your home and family sector, and this inclines you to play it safe and familiar, in a good way! Virgo  Virgo You’re in a good position to harmonize with someone special or to feel good about your relationship choices or situation, dear Virgo. You’re also communicating exceptionally well now, and thinking on a home or family matter is much brighter or clearer than it has been. In fact, you may finally have the information you need to make an informed decision, or an endeavor moves forward, and you no longer feel stuck in a place of limbo. This is also an excellent day for clarifying or defining your feelings about a person or project. Libra  Libra The Moon in your resources sector all day can have the effect of steadying you and your emotions, dear Libra. You’re in a good position to see your life in a clear, realistic way, and this is especially the case when it comes to money, resources, talents, capability, family, and home affairs. A communication block or a delay is likely to lift, and this may involve communications or transportation equipment as Mercury returns to its position in the zodiac where it turned retrograde back in early December. You may be working with more information that aids decision-making now. Scorpio  Scorpio The Moon entered your sign yesterday and spends the day in Scorpio today, dear Scorpio, and this can serve to excite your emotions and senses. You tend to play things by ear today, and you’re more inclined than usual to trust your intuition. Even so, there is some serious energy surrounding your projects, interests, or studies today, and this may mean you have a conversation that helps you define things or aids in decision-making. Your thinking is practical and realistic today. Finances or a business matter are likely to move forward after a delay or a period of uncertainty. Sagittarius  Sagittarius The Moon spends the day in your privacy sector, and you need a break from the usual, dear Sagittarius. This can be an anonymous time in some manner – you’re operating under the radar, and this is good for you at this point in the lunar cycle. Activities that refresh and heal are the most satisfying and useful right now. Even so, today is excellent for your practical affairs, especially for seeing the true value of things. Your judgment with money is particularly sound. Capricorn  Capricorn The Moon spends the day in your friends and wishes zone, dear Capricorn. While the day holds lighter astrological traffic than the past several days overall, you’re still in a good position to connect with others and with your own needs, desires, and wishes. This is a particularly good time for seeing yourself and your capabilities more clearly. Judgment is excellent now, and others tend to find you valuable and mature. Aquarius  Aquarius The Moon spends the day at the top of your solar chart, dear Aquarius, and it’s a more visible time of the lunar month for you. Even so, generally speaking, you’re in a more retiring or quiet, low-key mood as you gear up for your new birthday year. Today feels a little lighter than recent days, but you’re taking something quite seriously nevertheless. In fact, it’s an excellent time to set goals and make plans, as your vision is crystal clear. Pisces  Pisces The Moon spends the day in your sector of growth, spirit, and expansion, dear Pisces, and you’re in an excellent mood for gaining perspective on your life. You’re not inclined to worry too much about the details or practical side of your life just for now, and instead, you think about the bigger picture, which is helpful. Today is particularly strong for seeing matters clearly, particularly those related to long-term goals, career, and education. * Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign. If you don’t know your Ascendant sign (and you know your birth time), you can look it up here. If Your Birthday is January 10th, If Today is Your Birthday full horoscope here. Astrology of Today – The Details: If you’re astrologically inclined and interested in the details of the Astrology of today, here are some of the factors considered in the forecasts (for the astrology of the week, see This Week in Astrology): Planet Color Key: The longer the bar, the slower the aspecting planet and the longer the duration of the planet’s transit.    Date & Time: Jan 10 2018 0:00 am Event: Moon in Scorpio Description: The Moon in Scorpio Contemplate the deeper things in life. Avoid unnecessary conflict, but if it’s going to improve your life, go ahead and make waves. Tune in to your intuition. This is a good time for investigations, looking into a matter further, doing research, connecting to others with a shared passion, solving a mystery, and devising a strategy. When the Moon in Scorpio is strained, we may take our passions too far. Date & Time: Jan 10 2018 5:00 am Event: Tr-Tr Mon Cpl Ura Description: Transiting Moon ContraParallel Transiting Uranus Date & Time: Jan 10 2018 10:17 am Event: Tr-Tr Mon Sqq Chi Description: Transiting Moon SesquiSquare Transiting Chiron Hurt feelings may be opportunities for healing. Now is the time for building bridges, not burning them. Date & Time: Jan 10 2018 10:58 am Event: Tr-Tr Mon Sqr Jun Description: Transiting Moon Square Transiting Juno There may be clinging or controlling behavior if we are driven by our fears. Hypersensitivity and moodiness are possible. Tread lightly with tricky emotional issues. Date & Time: Jan 10 2018 2:39 pm Event: Tr-Tr Mon Tri Nep Description: Transiting Moon Trine Transiting Neptune This is a feel-good time if we allow ourselves to relax and tune into the subtle aspects of life – art, nature, beauty, dreams, and spiritual realms. We absorb things easily, our senses are in good form, and we more naturally accept things and people as they are. There is no need to look for definite answers right now. Date & Time: Jan 10 2018 7:47 pm Event: Tr-Tr Mon SSq Mer Description: Transiting Moon SemiSquare Transiting Mercury What feels right clashes with logic today. What people are saying may be a misrepresentation of their true feelings/emotions. It’s better to think before we speak, or misunderstandings can follow. Date & Time: Jan 10 2018 8:44 pm Event: Tr-Tr Mon Sqr Nod Description: Transiting Moon Square Transiting North Node This is the trigger for out with the old and in with the new. We could feel at odds with others on an emotional level. Public relations are not as favorable now. Plans could need reworking. We could feel temporarily out of the loop. Date & Time: Jan 10 2018 10:08 pm Event: Tr-Tr Mon Sqr Cer Description: Transiting Moon Square Transiting Ceres There can be conflicts with loved ones, or we could be feeling unsupported. People could seem insensitive or uncaring, or our own needs seem to be at odds with the needs of family and friends. Date & Time: Jan 10 2018 0:36 am Event: Tr-Tr Sun Sxt Mar Description: Transiting Sun Sextile Transiting Mars We can be furthering our goals and desires without apology. A time for getting ahead, taking action, and solving problems, and some healthy self-centeredness. Competition. Taking the lead. Strong Signs, Elements, Modes BALANCE OF SIGNS SCORPIO STRONG Intense, magnetic, penetrating perception, power to confront. Can be destructive, vengeful, jealous, overly dramatic. CAPRICORN STRONG Disciplined, responsible, reliable, industrious, conscientious, practical, achieving. Can be pessimistic, overly conventional, rigid, materialistic, callous. BALANCE OF ELEMENTS EARTH STRONG We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting. AIR WEAK We may have a difficult time being objective or detached. We may not be especially communicative. WATER STRONG We are more compassionate, emotional, and intuitive than usual, and we may react emotionally to situations, possibly at the expense of logic or practicality. BALANCE OF MODES The modes are balanced in this chart. LUNAR PHASE: THIRD QUARTER Moon from 90 to 45 degrees behind the Sun. We have strong beliefs and are likely to put them into action. We have the wisdom to know when to act, but sometimes can be inflexible. The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on January 10th: Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected–or will perfect–in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies. Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today). **I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime). THE MOON THE MOON IN SCORPIO You have an emotional intensity, and a strong need for drama. Under stress you will create drama and intensity in your life. You may have been born at a time when your mother experienced a crisis, or your birth may have been traumatic. Your mother may have been possessive and intense. 11TH DEGREE OF SCORPIO Part of Body: Penis, Labia majora Sabian Symbol: A drowning man rescued.

This could be a person, a vocation, or an artistic hobby. SQUARE URANUS Orb 3°51′ Applying You are restless and lack commitment in your personal relationships. You are wilful and see anyone else’s claim on you as an obstacle to your freedom of self- expression. You need to learn to compromise and enjoy your partner’s unique contribution to your life. CONJUNCTION PLUTO Orb 1°37′ Separating You want intensity and drama in your personal relationships. You are consumed with love and passion and expect your partner to feel the same way. You are disappointed when others fail to soar to great emotional heights and plummet the emotional depths by your side.

ASPECTS OF URANUS SQUARE PLUTO Orb 5°29′ Applying A time for making sweeping changes and for adapting to changes in order to progress. This is a time for revising, altering, overhauling, and purging.

NEPTUNE NEPTUNE IN PISCES A long-term influence in which fantasy, imagination, compassion, and spirituality are in stronger focus.

Hi! I love your blog 🖤 How much, if at all, do you utilize declinations (parallels/contraparallels)? I was curious, what’s your opinion regarding their significance on planetary placements? Like for example, if you have a Venus in Pisces and your Venus is also parallel Pluto (tight orb of 0 degrees), does that cause the person to embody more Plutonian traits regarding love? Thank you so much for your insight!! 🖤🖤
I haven’t worked much with them (purely because I always forget to check declinations lmaooo) but I do find them helpful. They work the same as conjunctions and oppositions, which offers another layer of insight and complexity to a chart. You can read about conjunctions and oppositions in the place of parallels and contraparallels, but remember to do so through the lens of the archetypal relationships you’re dealing with – aspects are based on the arrangement of the Zodiac, and that’s not consistent with declinations. For example, you can have a planet contraparallel another planet in a neighboring sign, creating an “opposition” interaction that isn’t possible with basic angles. The tension and conflict are there, but the nature of it depends very heavily on the signs involved. Along that same idea, the tension & conflict are less about energy or “personality” and more about space; for example, if you have a contraparallel in neighboring signs, the conflict will arise when the planets are working for the same goal or participating in the same experience, whereas with an opposition, the conflict arises whenever one of the planets tries to express itself in a different direction than the other, in any context. I hope that makes sense lol. Declinations create very specific conditions whereas aspects are much broader & more fundamental to the native’s life.
