Things to focus on/develop ~ astro observations ✨

Moon in 8th house - emotional self-sufficiency; being your biggest emotional support; letting go of old resentments, attachments and learning to move on; learning to channel your emotions through art/journaling/cooking etc.

Gemini Sun - being constant, reliable, true to your word;being honest and not lying/twisting facts; being there physically and emotionally for people you love; less over-explaining and quarreling;

Libra Moon - learning to make decisions by and for themselves; so many times I see these people always asking for advice on what to do or struggling to make decisions even when it comes to important things in their life; also learning to speak your mind instead of letting emotions build up inside you and acting all passive-aggressive; it’s okay not to agree just let us know;

Leo ascendant - and always wanting to appear polished, put-together, perfect. Lots of emphasis on being clean, well-dressed and having nice hair. Sometimes it’s okay to tone it down a notch. Many imperfections about yourself are only in your mind, very few if anybody at all notices them; also you know what diplomacy is, I guess? Sometimes it’s better to reach an agreement/compromise than to relentlessly pursue your point of view. It’ll attract enmity on the long term and people finding subtle ways to put you down behind your back, just saying.

Virgo Mercury - learning to talk about how you feel and don’t always fret the small print; being vulnerable is not a weakness;

Stellium in 11th house (especially in air signs) - accept yourself first and foremost and stop trying to fit in with crowds; some people will always judge you and not like you. You’re good at being a social butterfly and it likely brings you benefits but don’t lose yourself in always gaining other people’s approval. It’s better to walk alone than constantly clinging to people who bring you down or are just not right for you.

Ascendant square Mercury/Mercury retrograde/3rd house Mercury(possibly) - take time to improve communication skills, it’ll serve you big time in the future. Don’t hurry when you talk and think it through before you say something. Don’t just blurt out the first thing that comes to your mind; it might come out messy. Don’t butt into conversations or try to dominate them. People won’t be more interested in what you are going to say, it’ll just reflect poorly on you.

Lilith-Venus aspects(especially the square)/Lilith-Moon hard aspects - don’t blindly trust women; this aspect is said to attract both admiration and jealousy from women. It adds extra charm to your appearance but can also spark enmity/bad intentions in others. Beware.

Moon-Jupiter aspects (especially square) - take care of your weight!! Make sure to eat healthy food and exercise regularly. There could be a tendency to put on weight. You’re a connoisseur of life and very curious person by nature so it makes sense you would like to try out new delicious food/beverages, but don’t give in to excess.

Sun opposite Moon - this aspect suggests a conflict between the Ego(Identity) and the emotional life of the native. Sometimes these people have zero clue what they are feeling and if you ask them they might just shrug. Or they might suppress their emotions in favor of their intelect/rational side. This can lead to big internal turmoil, crisis and even depression later on. My advice: don’t ignore what you feel. Speak about it or write it down. It’s important to at least be conscious of what is going on with your emotional life. Is it sadness/annoyance/boredom maybe a sense of relief? Whatever it is, write it down. It’ll make you feel better, I promise.

Sun in 5th house - you cannot make up your mind about who to be with, am I right? Many people attract you and make your heart flutter for different reasons. Your interest may be short-lived. You definitely love a nice figure, beautiful clothes and an “expensive-looking” appearance. Personality-wise you like a good sense of humor, a beautiful smile, solid social skills and if the said person is desired by many others, it might awaken your interest even more! My advice to you: make up your mind. Who is the person you truly want to be with? What is their personality like, their values, interests, life-goals? Will they align with yours? How will you be supporting each other along the way? Solve the conflicts that would arise? Don’t get too picky or cocky though. Just as your chosen person will try to be the best they can be, you shouldn’t succumb to laziness, complacency either. Nobody is perfect. We got to do the best we can with what we have.

Virgo Moon - you’re way better and more than you ever give yourself credit for. Be proud of your accomplishments and all those times where you persevered when everything seemed to be going wrong and you couldn’t see the light. You’re a hard-working, very resilient and pragmatic person. You likely always help those in need especially your family/friends/acquaintances. They’ve always got somebody they can rely on to give them a car ride for example or cook them delicious food. Life is not always black and white and you’re certainly not the loser you might sometimes think you are. If only you could see the beauty I and other people can see in you!

Chart ruler in 12th house - oh boy, this one is quite annoying at times. People might just simply ignore your presence and not willingly. It’s like you somehow manage to blend into the background. Not one time have I heard people going “You’re here? I really haven’t noticed.” And it is not said with bad intentions. Your presence is calm, a little mellow and blends in easily with any crowd. Maybe you could be a spy? Just saying XD

The point with this placement (especially if you have many aspects to your Mercury, particularly the square) is to be patient! Do not raise your voice or butt into conversations you are not welcomed in. Wait to be invited, stay silent or better yet: leave. If it’s done repeatedly by the same group of people it’s not longer unintentional.

Also - protect your energy and make sure you sleep 8-10 hours. It might be that you tire easily, are susceptible to other’s energy, feel it when somebody is ill or suffering. You’re sensitive and probably empathetic to boot (regardless of other positions in your chart). Make sure you don’t overexert yourself or let others take advantage of your sensitive side.

Chiron conjunct Midhaven - it might actually be healthy and recommended for you to work! Especially if it’s the kind of job that suits you and that you find satisfaction in. With this aspect it’s possible that not having a goal/career will make you feel aimless/confused/irritated. This aspect suggests an ambitious, driven and hard-working individual that might find much more in their career than satisfaction, purpose and money. They might also find healing. These people are likely to work in healthcare and dealing with other people’s ailments and emotional wounds. But instead of bringing them down, it is where they actually find their place. Especially in the sign of Capricorn, these people don’t wish to lead easy/privileged lives, but meaningful ones where they leave a legacy behind.

People typically trust them because they sense they are trustworthy and share their problems with them.

Venus in Aries - this is not talked about nearly enough. These folks are courageous and very devoted to their loved ones, to the point where they would do almost anything for them! Venus is not just about your love life but also about your feminine side, your values and self-worth, your sense of aesthetics, creative expression, wealth&comfort and social harmony. It’d be silly to narrow it down simply to one domain: your romantic life. Sure, it plays a significant role when it comes to the way you express and accept love, what appeals to you most but it not all that it is!

A Venus in Aries person makes a dynamic and gutsy friend somebody that would go on almost any adventure with you. They could be blunt but you can be sure they will always tell the truth. They will speak up for you when needed and they could be plenty generous.

The point with this placement is to not get carried away or be too pushy. Many people are simply not ready to be as bold and honest and unapologetic as you are. They might just be unsure, more skeptical, or have a different way of expressing their attention/affection. Don’t always put demands on them or assume dishonesty at the slightest disturbance.

Edit-completion to Venus in Aries.

Hope you guys enjoyed reading my post!! Please tell me what you think and let’s have a discussion 🤗🌟

LILITH ASPECTS(deep dive)

i see somewhere that people who are lilith dominant have trauma when it comes to being accused of things

and it’s really true depending on what it’s aspecting it can show where things like this take place

mars-lilith in men or women can show accusation when it comes sex or doing things society deem as immoral like stealing from somebody

you could b doing literally nothing and someone will project that lilith on you and make you villain no matter how nice your being

you could be a virgin and someone would assume your a slut

these projections don’t come from nowhere though sometimes the mars lilith people are like this

some can do whatever they want and not care about consequences, stealing, having sex with others partners etc

this mostly happens because these things happened to them, since this happened to them they want to gain a sense of control by doing it back to other people

when they were younger they were most likely a wild child but the people around them thought it was too much so they had to get forced to suppress that side of them

repressing their sexuality, getting in trouble for exploring their sexuality or being open about it especially early on

these people can b drawn to taboo sexual experiences and taboo things, if someone tell them not to do something they’re most likely going to do it

because they don’t like people threatening their independence in any way(mostly with the hard aspects)

no matter how bad something may seem to society they don’t care they just care about what they want to do not what people want them to do they want don’t want to conform to others expectations

may either b too honest about their motivations that it comes off as too much or they keep everything inside( i see this mostly with mars opposite lilith)

mars opposite lilith tend to make the person scared to be lilith they can come off as reserved when it comes to mars things but internally they can be lilith

it can go the other way too that they identify more with lilith that people are scared by it

mars trine lilith tend to be the ones who don’t care and will express their desire and go after what they want without anything holding them back because they’re comfortable with lilith not fighting it

venus lilith aspects are very interesting especially for women

people with these can have people admire them and want them but never get approached like at all

when they do get approached or or people get a attracted to them it can be very creepy people

you could be a minor and older men or women can hit on you and even try to get with you

these people can criticized for literally anything when it comes to their appearance

they can be so magnetic and attractive to others that other put them down and humble them for literally existing

people who are attracted to you can hate you for how you make them feel it can make them feel out of control and that you have control over them

most of the time the people who are in your face hating are the ones wanting to be like you or want you

you attract love hate relationships

i see men with this aspect who wants a girl who is open sexually and very wild but then gets mad at them for being like that at the same times(with hard aspects)

they tend to want questionable people like other people can be very bewildered by the people you want

men from my experience tend to want girl who are hoes and everyone knows but they still feel drawn to them because they’re free and wild with the easy aspects they may be more ok with it but with the hard aspects they definitely hate their type

they want that but when they get it they get conflicted

women with this can be seen as a bad bitch or be intimidating to men and other women because their confidence in their femininity

women with this tend to post revealing picture of themselves and have no shame and don’t care

or it can be the complete opposite and want to no skin showing whatsoever because of trauma

people with this can get accused of stealing others partner or wanting others partners

this can be the case some of the time they could get intrigued by things that are forbidden and they aren’t supposed to be desiring

men with this i see tend to have a fixation on taking other men’s girls or taking pride in it

they can b too independent where they don’t even need their partner no matter how much they love them

can tell themselves that they don’t need others love and that self love is the only thing that matters

partners and people attracted to them being jealous and wanting to tame them

people being attracted to you while they’re in a relationship

something i seen was a man with Venus trine lilith and his partner who’s a venus square lilith and when he met her she was already posting these revealing pictures of herself on insta and he still wanted her but when they got into a relationship she continued to do this and he eventually got a problem with it even though he was attracted to that at first

mercury-lilith aspects are very interesting these people don’t sugarcoat for anything at all they always tell the brutal truth

no matter how much it hurts other people

before those people even open their mouth they can be shut off because their words have so much power

people can twist their words and accuse them of saying things they never said

could’ve exiled or got in trouble for speaking their mind

trauma around speaking their mind, which can make them always speak their mind or wanting to always be silent and keep it to themselves

these people can be very smart because they look for everything not just things that are nice and pleasant

will look for truth no matter how much pain it causes them

shame around communication overthinking whether they should say something or to just let go and say what comes natural to them

the easy aspects tend to have no problem speaking their mind no matter the circumstances

the hard aspects have problems and conflict with that and need to learn they shouldn’t be ashamed of anything they say because their words are powerful and cause change

communication style can be intimidating because they’re always challenging others ideas

refusing to be silenced

mercury-lilith hard aspects tend to cuss a lot and not like that about themselves but they continue to do so

people not wanting to talk to you because of your communication style and you might realize why people are acting weird towards you but it’s because they can’t handle the energy and think it’s too much

sun-lilith

you could’ve expressed yourself and people told you that your annoying or too much

this caused you to stop expressing yourself

or to over express yourself that it’s too much for people

you could be yourself and people think your mean or that you don’t like them

always trying to rebel against things people are doing

you can be very unique because you refuse to be like the crowd

this can cause you ti be outcasted and isolated

you prefer that compress ti being something your not in fitting in

these people can be way too authentic for others they can have no shame which is good thing but when your fully authentic people are going to hate you or love you which is at at play here

hard aspects could have trouble with their natural sexual identity if they don’t accept that about themselves other people will project that onto them

people would project bad things onto you if your not acting as lilith when it’s in opposition

people can make you the villain no matter what you do

it can make you just be ok with being the villain because that’s all people wanted to make you so it’s no escaping

(don’t have much experience with the asc and moon aspects)

SYNASTRY NOTES

Disclaimer: These are just my observations. If they don't resonate with you, simply read and move on.

Mercury compatibility is one of the most crucial factors in synastry. When your Mercury placements are in a square aspect, even casual conversations can quickly turn irritating, with both partners reacting in unexpected ways. For example, a Virgo Mercury might expect their partner to analyze, comment on, or even critique what they say, while a Gemini Mercury may simply brush it off with a “move on” attitude. This mismatch can leave the Virgo feeling frustrated. Squares between Mercuries tend to be easier to navigate when mutable signs are involved; with fixed signs, however, the clash can be much more intense.

When Mercury placements form a quincunx aspect, the two individuals often struggle to understand each other. They may offer perspectives that are entirely unfamiliar to one another, but a natural, intuitive connection remains elusive.

The Mars-Moon conjunction in synastry is often overrated. Although there's undeniable physical attraction, the Mars person can end up irritating the Moon person, turning even small disagreements into fiery battles. Of course, the specific signs involved can influence this dynamic, but generally, the intensity can be challenging to manage.

A Lilith-Sun conjunction in synastry tends to bring out the shadow side of your personality in the other person. I've observed this aspect in couples who had anxious-avoidant attachment struggle and they had Lilith-Sun conjunction as double whammy! It’s fascinating to see how closely psychology and astrology can intertwine in this case.

When one of your personal planets forms a conjunction with the South Node in synastry, it creates a sense of familiarity and often leads to rapid intimacy. There's a natural comfort and ease that emerges from these connections.

Soft aspects between Moon placements are among the best in synastry. They create a feeling of being at home in each other’s presence and lead to a deep, intuitive understanding of one another’s emotional needs.

Juno is often underrated when it comes to a man’s natal chart. Since Juno represents his ideal partner, and men tend to approach marriage with a rational mindset, it's natural for them to choose someone who aligns with this placement. For instance, one of my ex-partners had Juno conjunct my Sun, while another had it conjunct my Ascendant—while I had no major Juno connection with them.

Placements in the 2nd house can be especially telling if you value material security. Whether you’re attracted to the idea of financial stability or you’re a self-proclaimed “gold digger” (no offense), checking out your 2nd house synastry is worthwhile. It’s particularly promising if he has key planets like Jupiter, Mars, the Sun, or Venus positioned in your 2nd house.

If a man has a stellium landing on your Venus, it’s a strong indicator that you might be his dream girl. Such an alignment can make you unforgettable to him for a long time.

Hard aspects between the Sun and Saturn suggest a power struggle. Saturn demands obedience, yet the Sun naturally resists, leading to frequent conflicts. Whenever the Sun defies Saturn’s authority, the reaction from Saturn can be notably harsh.

Astrology Observations Pt. 3

materialist🔖

💋 scorpio mars/venus (and maybe some water placements too) could find sweat on their partners or their crushes attractive to a certain extent 😭

💋 mercury-pluto aspects could mean you’d want a car that states that YOU are powerful and hold some sort of importance or you could just be a car fanatic 🏎️

💋 2nd house placements HATE when something doesn’t smell pleasant, especially the moon or venus😭 if your breath be stanky, they definitely going to be making some faces 😬😵‍💫🥴

💋 10th house synastry 🤝🏻 a certain extent of idolisation with each other

💋 mars placement in synastry could indicate what the mars person likes looking at when they're looking at the house person, because the eyes are ruled by aries, and the planetary ruler of aries is mars (just a theory lmao) 👀

mars 1st house synastry and looking at the house person’s face, eyes, forehead 👁️

mars 2nd house synastry and looking at the house person’s throat, neck 🎤

mars 7th house synastry and looking at the house person’s butt😋

💋 8th house placements 🤝🏻 being superstitious 🧿

💋 virgo placements look so sexy with belly button piercings and could find belly button piercings very attractive on others too 🙈

𝔄𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔬𝔩𝔬𝔤𝔶 𝔒𝔟𝔰𝔢𝔯𝔳𝔞𝔱𝔦𝔬𝔫𝔰

And welcome to 2025 everyone!

Aquarius placements learn to detach themselves in order to feel control. For example if someone has an Aquarius Moon they often detach themselves from their emotions in order to feel as if they are more in control of their feelings. They don't like to feel overwhelmed by their feelings or like their feelings are controlling them instead of the other way around. People forget that in Traditional Astrology Aquarius is ruled by Saturn which is all about containment/restriction and control.

People talk about how Leo placmements are incredibly magnetic and often attract a lot of attention, which is true, however we often underestimate Cancer placements when it comes to their personal magnetism. They attract people in a different way then Leos, they seem less attention hungry sometimes, often its their caring sweet nature that draws people in. After all the Moon may not shine as bright buts it's still as luminary.

The smartest people you know will have Mercury and Jupiter aspects in their chart. Specifically you want to look for Conjunction, trine, sextile, quintile and biquintile. These people are not only driven towards learning and expanding their knowledge, but also wonderful at being able to teach others what they know and relaying this information. They communicate very eloquently.

Taurus Mars is one of my favourite mars placements. Though this may sound backwards as it is in detriment in taurus, I have seen how people with this placement are amazing at getting the results that they want. Though they may not be the quickest at getting things done they are the most stable, stubborn and determined. When they set their mind to something, They are dedicated.

Moon in the third house often represent having a sibling who is incredibly nurturing and caring, however you also may have seen them as very emotional, and maybe even a little moody or volatile sometimes.

Thanks for reading everyone,

wishing you good luck in the new year!

Astrology observations pt 32

-I feel like notorious and/or serial thieves and hackers would have a lot of Gemini placements or a prominent Mercury placement

-Uranus in the 3rd house can indicate being socially awkward and having trouble understanding social cues. It can even hint at neurodivergence

-Leo placements and people with the Sun in prominent houses get attention regardless of if they actually seek it or not. Whether they are receptive to the attention or not depends on their other placements (ex- water placements usually hate it and avoid it)

-Neptune in the 4th house can indicate growing up sheltered and not having an accurate picture of what “the real world” is like. In extreme cases think rapunzel and mother gothel

-mars-Uranus aspects can indicate being accident and injury prone, especially if they are conjunct in the 6th house

-Chiron-Neptune aspects can manifest literally via being scared of water/the ocean or having had an incident where you almost drowned

-people with a lot of Capricorn and Aries placements either have perfect teeth or had to have some major dental work done during their early life (including orthodontic procedures)

-having Mars in the 4th house or having the 4th house cusp in a mars ruled sign can indicate growing up in a home where you witnessed a lot of fighting or DV, or growing up in an unsafe neighborhood

All About Mercury In Natal Chart

{PS: These are my own interpretations. For entertainment purposes only. Have Fun💚.}

[Mercury in the natal chart represents intelligence, communication, thinking patterns, and how one processes and expresses ideas. It governs speech, learning style, problem-solving abilities, and adaptability in social interactions. Its placement by sign and house reveals how a person thinks, learns, and shares information, influencing everything from daily conversations to career choices. A strong Mercury enhances logic, wit, and versatility, while a challenged Mercury may indicate difficulties in expression or scattered thinking.]

Mercury in Aries

Mercury in Aries brings a sharp, quick-witted, and assertive mindset. Individuals with this placement think on their feet, speak directly, and often convey their thoughts with enthusiasm and confidence. They are natural debaters who relish challenges and can be quite persuasive with their words. Their thinking is independent, and they tend to prefer action over lengthy contemplation. However, they might be impatient with details and quick to jump to conclusions. Their communication style is bold, sometimes blunt, and they may find it difficult to fully listen to others before responding. These individuals excel at initiating projects, brainstorming ideas, and making spontaneous decisions. They thrive in careers that demand quick thinking, leadership, and innovation, such as sales, entrepreneurship, or public speaking.One drawback of Mercury in Aries is their tendency to argue or dominate conversations, often believing their opinions are always right. Their competitive nature drives them to prove themselves intellectually, which can lead to conflicts if not managed properly. Nevertheless, their passion for new ideas and fearless approach to communication make them inspiring leaders and trendsetters. They flourish in environments where they can take the initiative and express their ideas freely.  

          Mercury in the 1st House

           Mercury in the 1st house endows the native with an incisive, communicative, and adaptive intellect. The native is innately curious, ingenious, and has a dynamic, young communicative style. Mercury here makes them quick learners with a mind-set to learn something new. They have the habit of speedy communication and they blend well with most social atmospheres. Mercury in the 1st house people equate themselves with their mind, and they might have the urge to convey a powerful message to the world. They are good communicators and can succeed in communication-related professions or as writers, speakers, and teachers. They might also have the inclination towards excessive thinking and nervousness. These people tend to appear talkative and mentally active, and sometimes even restless. They tend to be analytical in life, and their mental processes guide their personality. When Mercury is well-aspected, they are very good at solving problems and making fast decisions. But if troubled, they become excessively nervous, flighty, or too logic-oriented and less intuitive. They need intellectual stimulation in their relationships and have deep conversations with their partner. They tend to be young at heart, regardless of age, since they're inquisitive and capable of being adaptable. The placement also makes them brilliant networkers who are good at relating to all sorts of people.

Mercury at 1°, 13°, and 25° 

In these degrees Mercury possesses a blend of innovative intellect, tactical communication, and creative self-expression. Mercury is direct and bold in expression, and the native is a natural communicator, willing to get ideas out there, and prompt to take charge of the conversation. It suggests a sharp analytical and methodical nature, with an interest in detailed research, logical analysis, and problem-solving skills. These degrees perform well in professions that require precision, such as law, science, or strategy-based fields. Mercury takes on a more intuitive and creative nature, facilitating insightful storytelling, poetic eloquence, and an interest in philosophy or spirituality. Together, these degrees create a dynamic synthesis of intellect, organization, and creative depth in communication and thought.

Mercury in Taurus

Mercury in Taurus tends to slow down the thinking process, leading individuals to be more deliberate, practical, and methodical in their thoughts and communication. They are not quick to jump to conclusions; instead, they prefer to analyze situations thoroughly before forming an opinion. Their speech is measured, calm, and often persuasive, as they have a knack for making their words impactful. Those with Mercury in Taurus possess excellent memory retention, particularly for matters related to the material world, such as finances, business strategies, or creative ideas with long-term value.These individuals are attracted to tangible, real-world knowledge and often have a deep appreciation for the arts, music, and nature. Their practical mindset makes them effective planners and problem-solvers, especially in areas like finance, real estate, or agriculture. However, they may find it challenging to adapt to sudden changes in plans, as they prefer stability and consistency. Their reluctance to change their views can sometimes come off as stubbornness, but once they commit to something, they are highly dedicated. People with Mercury in Taurus excel at explaining concepts in a simple, relatable way, making them great teachers, advisors, and business strategists. Their patience and practicality enable them to thrive in endeavors that require long-term planning and perseverance. 

          Mercury in the 2nd House

            Mercury in the 2nd house affects how one feels about money, possessions, and values. They have realistic and logical thoughts regarding money and are usually good at budgeting, investing, and planning for money. They are able to utilize their communication abilities to make a living, so they do well in careers such as writing, sales, teaching, or public speaking. They are very good at negotiating and business deals due to their quick minds and adaptability. They have a tendency to have an eye for evaluating the value of things, whether it is money, ideas, or material possessions. On the negative side, Mercury here can cause indecision regarding finances. Such individuals might overthink purchases or alter their financial objectives constantly. If Mercury is poorly aspected, there may be financial insecurity caused by careless decision-making. They might also be deeply interested in intellectual pursuits that yield concrete benefits. They might accumulate books, knowledge, or possessions of value. Their speech might be calculated and practical, tending to discuss facts more than feelings. In their relationships, they seek partners who share their values and intellectual interests. They can talk openly about money in their relationships and value intellectual security just as much as material security.

Mercury at 2°, 14°, and 26°

Mercury here creates a mind that is both pliable and demanding, with an ease of movement from logical analysis to intuitive perception. There is a natural ability to communicate with others through words, so that the individual is an effective communicator who can adjust their tone and approach in line with whom they are communicating. An acute attention to detail allows for accuracy in writing, problem-solving and technical skills, and they are suited for professions that require accuracy. At the same time, there is an intense curiosity about abstract ideas, psychology, and esoteric information, and therefore a tendency to go beyond the surface of dialogue. This combination makes for someone who is both socially astute and intensely perceptive in thought and communication.

astro observations⊹˚. ♡.𖥔 ݁ ˖

moon in the 12th house synastry can feel like this soulmate, otherworldly bond, where you can read each others minds. however, it sometimes can result in the house person not being appreciative of the moon, not recognizing the efforts they make to help them feel good and feeling their feelings on such a deep level.

underdeveloped cancer suns can be so annoying😭 one thing i’ve noticed about them is that they looove to exaggerate the things they’ve done for you, it’s like they just NEED the praise for “sacrificing themselves”. they also tend to tell stories in a way that just makes you doubt if it actually happened the way that they’re portraying it.

saturn square mars people can suffer from low energy levels, sometimes they just cannot physically bring themselves to do something. however, if they eventually start, there’s no way of stopping them.

mercury conjunct mars people can effortlessly hurt you with their words, it’s no joke. they also tend to have some strong opinions. my mum has this and let’s just say that i avoid certain topics when talking to her😬

moon in taurus folks are such good cooks, i swear. it’s their love language, too. they don’t mind cooking for you and making your favourite dish is their way to your heart. they are really talented at it and it relaxes them.

they also tend to have extremely good sense of smell which is kinda impressive ngl. they are picky about certain scents.

someone i know has venus in gemini and he told me that he has actually broken up with a couple of girls in the past because their conversations were dull and they couldn’t keep up with him mentally.

another thing about this placement is that gemini venuses/risings are great at wordplay. it’s like their minds are always active, constantly seeking to make a brilliant joke.

mars in cancer men get turned on by their partner being turned on. they love to give pleasure.

8th house synastry can actually become so uncomfortable. people oftentimes talk about how deep and transforming it is, but if neither of people involved want to deepen the relationship, you will just be left with this aggressive awkwardness.

mercury square ascendant people often have specific mannerisms when they talk. i also kinda feel bad for them, as people tend to focus on how they speak, not on what they’re saying. it’s like they have very interesting thoughts but they cannot present them in an appealing way to the people that they don’t really know that well.

thank you so much for reading! i’m not a professional so don’t take my posts too seriously, only take what resonates. if you would like me to make a post about any specific placement, make sure to tell me💞

[vedicpriestess]

no matter what, astrology will remain my forever true love, a burning blessed invocation of beauty. nothing can ever come close to the state of introspective self awareness, reflection and insightful observation it has given to me. the planets as reflections of my soul, my eyes the gravitational force of black holes, the constellations mirrors of my psyche. i owe my life to the stars for eternity.

★Random Observations ★ +18

☆A Mix of Astro and Life observations.

☆People who have lots of asteroids and/or planets related to sexuality/attractiveness on Capricorn, relax, you will age like fine wine, probably becoming Milfs/Dilfs.

☆This observation is personal: I am impressed that many people talk about Mars in Capricorn and/or touching Saturn indicating a small dick. I am a native of that and I think that having 7 inches is not something small.

☆The year i had Mercury in Scorpio in 8th house in the SR chart, i started seeing things, to the point that I thought I was going crazy, I saw shadows, I saw things like bugs everywhere and I felt like some dark entities or presences tried to getting closer to me (Plus is trine with Neptune and opposite Uranus).

☆As a Mars dominant person I love hanging out with people who are also Mars dominant; we tease each other a lot, there is more frank and dark humor, lot of aggressiveness in a funny way, and I always feel rejuvenated after hanging out with people like that.

☆Why i'm using choso here? Because acquaintances have told me that I look like Choso lately (Its Just my face of sleep deprivation). And i like him.

☆You can be a lot like your Moon when you where kid but when you're older it can become your red flags because they can keep running unconsciously in other forms. For example: I have Libra Moon conjunct Black Moon Lilith (h58) and when i was a kid my focus was constantly on having relationships with the opposite sex, very amorous, indecisive and a little liar. But being in square with Mars together I was very explosive at home. Older Me: Persuasive, sometimes its very easy for me to see the psyche of people, and sometimes i know how to manipulate people. Another example: An acquaintance has Nessus (7066) in exact conjunction to her Moon in Capricorn and one would think that her mother was the abusive one but no, it was her. She used to choke her sister when she was little just because and was a little Machiavellian and violent. Older Her: Cold, emotionally abusive, emotionally irresponsible, tactless, hyper-individualistic, very materialistic.

☆When you have a lot of things in the 7th house, it is difficult to take control of those energies because most of the time they are projected without you realizing it, but others can see it clearly. For example: Mars in the 7th house you can see that others are aggressive with you, but others sees you as an aggressive person. Lilith in the 7th house you can see that people are abusive towards you but it is because people see you as a threat.

☆Sorry not sorry but all Leos I know have some serious ego issues.

☆I've seen that Venus in Taurus people It is as if they were proud of the sexual partners they've had(bodycount) and they usually like to keep them close in their life, they are not possessive and loyal like Venus in Scorpio but they like to possess people they consider valuable in sensual /sexual terms, but in reality sometimes it is only for aesthetics, they can even keep their sexual partners more for aesthetics than for the inner world of the person. Sorry Venus in Taurus, but these are your red flags. ☆When you have very Uranian transits or transiting Uranus is making intense aspects with your personal planets (Transit Uranus conjunct Natal Venus/Mars/Sun/Etc), it can feel like very adolescent periods, almost as if there were no consequences for your actions, since Uranus is not very friendly with Saturn (because Saturn represents consequences/ karma and Uranus represents rebellion), then you can go through a bit of a YOLO period for like 2-3 years, but when this period is over the weight of reality will come back to you with a heavy force and if during this Uranian period you behaved very badly/stupidly and quite irresponsibly with others, don't worry because later Saturn will come to dump all the weight of karma/consequences/reality and responsibility on you. Sorry not Sorry.

｡:ﾟSynastry Observations ❣️ﾟ:｡(part 1)

❣️Venus conjunct Moon

I cannot stress enough how much I love Venus conjunct Moon aspects in synastry. It's so so wholesome. You instantly trust each other and there's so much of care and understanding between the two of you. Even in my close friendships, this is a really beautiful aspect to have because there's so much of empathy and love and something just clicks between you two, especially a tighter orb. Venus person sees right through the Moon person and the Moon person can express themselves freely and openly, being at their most vulnerable without worry about judgement.

❣️Moon opposite Moon

So hear me out... I know this might be controversial but I love this aspect so much. Two people who are so different in so many ways but at the core, they're the same. They can learn so much from each other, especially if they both have the patience to. This is a ride or die pair who are super drawn to each other and constantly find themselves in the other person's presence. My personal favourites that I've seen are cancer/capricorn and libra/aries. This can also work well for Sun opposite Sun.

❣️Venus conjunct Pluto

So this might also be a controversial one lol. It's tethering dangerous territory, honestly because it can get obsessive really quickly and as a result turn toxic but, if both individuals are mature enough, this is unconditional love and devotion to each other and a magnetic attraction, where the couple cannot keep their hands off of each other. This can work really well imo if as I said, two of them are mature enough and there are other good aspects to support this.

❣️Venus opposite Uranus

I call this one my "love at first sight" aspect. It's so so magnetic and the two are so drawn to each other, there's a pull they can't explain and they're completely fascinated by the other person. It can get unpredictable especially with Uranus being unpredictable paired with Venus who wants stability. I do like this aspect though especially, again, if paired with other good ones because it can be so exciting, constantly keeping the other person on their toes.

❣️Mercury trine/sextile Mars

The two bond over common interests and can stimulate each other's minds comfortably. They're the adventurous couple, always coming up with new and random dates where other people would be like??? seriously?? I remember having this with an ex and our idea of a fun date was reading our books together, which other people found strange but it's because we bonded over a common interest. This couple rarely falls into a monotonous routine and always tries to keep life exciting.

❣️Sun sextile/trine Jupiter

This couple loves being in each other's presence and always finds themselves in a good mood when the other person is around, especially for the Sun person when Jupiter person is around them. They're understanding of each other's flaws and can focus on the bigger picture rather than being too nit picky and irritating the other person.

❣️Jupiter sextile/trine Neptune

Apparently this is rare? I'm not entirely sure as I've only heard that recently but I suppose it's because Neptune spends a while in each sign? In any case I did have this aspect once with a partner. They're so generous and supportive of one another's goals and dreams, jupiter constantly uplifting and encouraging Neptune and Neptune inspiring Jupiter. Lovely spiritual and idealogical growth can be achieved with this aspect.

❣️Saturn trine Sun

Having good Saturn aspects in synastry is very important in my opinion because Saturn does dictate the longevity of a relationship and it represents karma. It's not to say if there's bad aspects, the relationship won't work out, but it certainly wont help, which is why Harmonious aspects here are important. There's a good balance with this aspect and mutual effort towards the relationship, paired with loyalty and confidence. You see this aspect a lot with married couples.

❣️Ascendent conjunct Sun

They find a lot in common with each other and have a lot of respect and admiration for the other person. Also something I see in either longer friendships or romantic relationships. I have this with my best friend as well. There's just similar goals and mindsets and the two can work in beautiful harmony together. There's strong physical attraction too in romantic relationships and some people also call this one the "love at first sight". They both wish to be like each other.

❣️Venus conjunct Mars

Talk about sexual attraction... this is Instantaneous "I want to rip your clothes off right here right now". There's strong romantic and sexual attraction and this aspect ensures sex life can never get boring between the two especially paired with other Harmonious aspects. This can work well platonically too because it can be exciting. This is a classic aspect for synastry I think a lot of astrologers love.

Astrology observations (part 8)- Mercury

Virgo and Gemini placements (esp Sun and Mercury) are very detail oriented

Mercury conjunct Venus know how to like convince and persuade people lol like regardless of whether they truly mean what they say or not- a positive manifestation of this would be utilizing this ability in marketing/social media jobs, and a bad manifestation of it would be manipulation

Mercury conjunct Pluto may come off as really intense for most people and so their intentions may be misunderstood as well- hard for these people to make friends

Mercury trine MC can indicate utilizing teaching/writing/communication skills to advance in career or perhaps start a business

Lilith aspecting Moon

This is a very powerful placement for women specifically. The moon, which is your emotions, connected to the unconscious self, habits, comfort and femininity is connected to the point in your chart that is powerful and dark, a part fuelled by pain, and all about transmutation. These woman often have a very intriguing essence about them. Strong and seductive. It's like you are playing with fire. She enjoys being a little off putting and knows exactly how to be enticing yet intimidating all in one.

Neptune/Venus/Pluto in the 3rd House

The third house is often overlooked when people are speaking on seduction and sex appeal in astrology. People are so focused on visual they miss a key point. Seduction includes all the senses. Someone being beautiful doesn't necessarily mean they are seductive. It's the way someone moves, speaks, the things they say and don't say, how they hold themselves along with present themselves. It's subtle.

This brings me to why the third house comes into play. It inductees how we communicate. As mentioned words can be very seductive. Having planets like Neptune and Venus will give someone a sweet and sensual demeanour when talking. Neptune is very receptive and often these people are incredible at being able to asses the needs of the person they are taking to, it's a very intuitive placement. Neptune is also all about fantasy. Playing into a role you project onto them.

Pluto in the third's seductive tactics are centred around power snd control. Manipulation if you will - not always in the worst sense. They are good at digging for information getting to the base of the persons psyche that they are speaking to. Once again it's about understanding the people around them. You can see how Neptune and Pluto have this in common but the way they use this is different.

Scorpio Rising

I feel like you guys know this one has to be mentioned. And I am sure I have written about this before. However I feel it's important to explain why this rising sign specifically holds such seductive energy. I often hear people talk about their eyes, which is very true. But it goes much deeper than just appearance. Scorpio naturally rules over the 8th house, a house that is very deep and dark. It's shrouded by mystery and taboo, along with being a sexually charged house. Now think about all of these themes being brought into the 1st house. Being at the forefront of someones being in not only the way they look, but they way they carry themselves and interact with the world around them. It's very provocative energy.

But there is more. Though people may assume that because of this scorpios may give off an overt sexual energy, its not quite as obvious one one may think. Whilst there is this air of sex appeal around them, this often doesn't come from being so open and bold about these things, but rather from holding a little something back. As we know scorpio is about the things below the surface, secrets, privacy. This creates a dynamic where people can sense this energy, however they must peel back the layers and investigate more to truly see what these people are like. This can create a push and pull, a little bit of an enigma. It piques the intrigue of people and encourages the chase.

Mercury quintile/Bi-quintile Mars, Pluto or Neptune & Lilith in some cases

Very similar to the previously mentioned third house, Mercury rules over communication, along wit the way we think and process things. Having a quintile or Bi-quintile aspecting mercury it shows us that someone has a particular skill around communication. I have already explained why having Pluto and Neptune connected to areas of your chart dealing with communication creates seduction.

I also included Mars, as Mars is a planet of strategy. Often working towards a goal these people like to win, and are very good at 'winning people over' in conversation. Mars is more of a dominant planet so domination is a tactic often used by these people. Sometimes being commanded is sexy. These people speak strongly which is sexy.

The reason why I put Lilith as a case by case aspect is because as we know, Lilith often states as a place of wounding in a natal chart. It's only after someone has healed those wounds and understood the source of power that that area of their chart is with Lilith sitting there that they can truly start to embody and experience this. Though I will say having Lilith in a quintile or Bi-quintile is often easier. When developed Lilith is a very untamed energy, a little wild and unpredictable. Two traits that are extremely enticing.
