Moon signs

Today, I was thinking about how Lightwands once said that Aries moons are like fairies in that they experience one really big emotion at a time. Since then, I cannot seperate aries moon from this archetype! Aries moons emotions are almost too big for their own bodies. Fairies, alike aries moons, also are mischievous and sticky-fingered.

Taurus moons can be warm and inviting, but they often come off as cold to those outside of their household. They have a limited threshold for nonsense and obnoxious people.

Gemini moons center friendships in their lives. Their friends range from casual to childhood bestfriends. This does not make them extrovert or introverted, they are a little bit of both. They are likely experiencing a social boost right now with Jupiter transiting Gemini.

I find that most Cancer moons have a creative outlet and experience bursts of creativity during their natal lunar phase.

Leo moons are like cartoon characters in real life (I think of Robert Zemeckis’ Who Framed Roger Rabbit.) They are naturally animated, expressive, and entertaining. Everybody wants Leo moon to like them.

Virgo moons are ethereal. They are like stained glass on church windows; like the light reflects the glass to create beautiful colors and patterns so is the virgo moons inner world reflected into their outward environment.

Libra moon can be conformative by nature. They need to have things in common with those around them in order to feel safe so they will take an interest in your hobbies. Very emotionally reserved people even more so than Capricorn moon.

Scorpio moons, like Aries moons, wear their emotions on their face. The difference is whereas Aries moons will use cuss words and low blows while they’re angry, Scorpio moons kills with dirty looks and rejective body language. They magnetically draw people in but they can just as easily propel you away when they chose.

Sagittarius moons have visions of grandeur. Nothing feels too far fetched for them. They philosophize their emotions, having profound and meaningful insights daily.

Capricorn moons seem tough but they’re like a raw nerve. They won’t let you see it, which makes others think they’re cold or weak. They aren’t, they just have exceptional emotional willpower. Very bruding moon sign.

Aquarius moons are like those clear/transparent computers that had an online resurgence around 2021-2022; you can see slightly through their outer shell however, even if you look closely, you will just see a complex, elaborate system that only skilled technicians can understand.

Pisces moons feel like they are living inside of a movie. I think of the song Movies in My Head by the 6ths. Like the other Jupiterian moon sign, Sagittarius moon, nothing feels out of the realm of possibility for Pisces moons.

The Sun entered Aquarius at exactly 9:45am GMT on Tuesday January 20th 1946. David Lynch was born at 3:00am GMT, making him a Capricorn Sun at 29 degrees.

Placements that inspire us

This week we lost legendary film director David Lynch. His TV series Twin Peaks has been the source of countless imitations, references and parodies ranging from The Simpsons to Soul Eater, Scooby Doo to Gravity Falls, Gilmore Girls to Clueless.

David Lynch had his Capricorn Sun at the critical 29th degree, conjunct his Venus at 26 degrees, ascending Scorpio 18 degrees, Virgo Moon at 5 degrees conjunct the Midheaven, Saturn and mars retrograde and conjunct in Cancer at 20 degrees.

Capricorn Sun have many imitators. Elvis Presley had his Sun in Capricorn at 17 degrees. Their energy makes a lasting impression that easily sways the culture at large as well as the individuals they come in contact with.

Cardinals do not always try to influence people but they inadvertently do because their confidence is infectious. Aries, Cancer, Capricorn and Libra love to lead others. Almost subconsciously, they attract others who are easily lead and could lack a sense of direction in life.

The Mutable signs are the trendsetters. They absorb elements from their environment and adjust accordingly. These are the shapeshifters, the spreaders of information.

Gemini and Virgo placements are notoriously talented in writing and communications. They have the ability to influence others with these speech, opinions and knowledge.

Scorpio and Aquarius Sun are natural influencers. People look to them to figure out what the latest thing is. As soon as people catch up to them, they are onto the next thing.

Planets conjunct the Midheaven are an indication of having influence over others. Moon on the Midheaven have an emotional impact, Sun conjunct Midheaven take over a room.

Neptune conjunct the ascendant have timeless features that are easily adaptable. Pluto conjunct the ascendant has an intimidating effect, Pluto conjunct the Midheaven, in the Tenth or Eleventh house signifies a memorable person for better or for worse.

Capricorn and Aquarius risings with Saturn in the tenth and eleventh house are highly influential in their fields. Sylvia Plath had her Saturn domicile in Capricorn in the eleventh house trine her Chiron in Taurus which loosely opposed her Mercury in Scorpio.

astrology observations 1.26.25

Moon conjunct ascendant people tend to move away from home at some point in their lives.

Transit Sun and Moon conjunct your ascendant could indicate an upgrade to your living situation; this could include moving homes or making renovations to your current home

Scorpio Venus people tend to only have a few serious partners in life before settling down. These people are fiercly committed and do not feel the need to play the field for long if at all. Messy breakups are common with this placement especially with a square to Mars in Leo/Aquarius

Venus square mars people have intense relationships with others. The relationships modeled for them in childhood effect and shape their early partnerships

Jupiter conjunct ascendant individuals have a strong pallet for aquired tastes; they enjoy eating foods from a variety of cultures

Transit Jupiter in the first house is an auspicious period of life. You will enjoy rich foods, experience beautiful enviornments and financial boosts

Aquarius and Scorpio Rising have likely lived in an apartment or communal living space at some point in their lives. These placements can be indicative of a lack of privacy growing up resulting in hermit-like tendencies in adulthood

Saturn conjunct Venus in the natal chart can inhibits social connection in youth and could indicate an awkward personality especially if aspecting the Sun

Transit Saturn conjunct natal mars is a period of necessary delays, contemplating options and longevity of plans rather than taking actions

Sagittarius Venuses are best suited for partners who are not from their place of origin

I have noticed prominent Aquarius placements in many people who identify as queer/LGBT+. Aquarians thrive on labels from a young age but likely resonate with a different label or evolve to reject labels entirely as they age.

Aquarius Risings are likely to change and evolve in coming years with Pluto crossing their ascendant. This evolution will be the natural progression of the changes you have been taking in recent years

Capricorn Risings have had a difficult time these past few years with Pluto passing through their first house. Friends have been lost, familal relationships changed forever, likely a significant death in the family happened during this time.

Over the next 20 years, Capricorn Sun and Rising will be working toward owning a home and achieving a steady, reliable form of income. By the time Pluto enters Pisces, they will likely have paid off a mortgage and own a property of their own, or they will have inherited a home, property or business

Capricorn Venus usually have a one that got away. They have a difficult time letting go of past partners

Cancer moons love going to the beach. Being near the ocean has a cleansing effect on them

Gemini placements connect with others through humor. They love to laugh at themselves. People get offended when Geminis poke fun at them, but it is all in good humor and harmless. This is just their way of connecting with you

Capricorn Moons can come off as mean spirited but they are actually the opposite; these people are very compassionate and easily hurt, they are accustomed to others disappointing them and so are emotionally guarded and reserved

Having Aries in the 10th/11th house indicates running your own business and/or being your own boss especially if the Sun, Mercury or Venus are in Aries

Sagittarius/Pisces Midheaven and Jupiter conjunct MC/in the 10th house indicates higher education, recieving bachelors, masters, or doctorate degrees

Taurus Suns are easily annoyed by people with big personalities. They can’t stand loudness or obnoxious behavior. They prefer the company of other relaxed, easy going individuals

Sun in the twelfth house tend to randomly disappear from people’s lives without a trace

Sun in the sixth house are recurring characters in others daily lives. They often run into people at the grocery store or out running other errands. A ton of household names are sixth house suns; Charlie Chaplin, Michael Jackson, John Lennon, Bob Dylan, Gordon Ramsey just to name a few

Moon conjunct Saturn experience seasonal sadness during winter months

Mars in the first house and mars square pluto people are argumentative and intense. They can turn any conversation into a ranting session

Saturn in the third house get their drivers license later than their peers

Neptune conjunct ascendant people have a close connection with the arts. Music, film, media, television, theatre, art and culture vastly shaped/warped their worldview growing up

Uranus conjunct ascendant/in the first house in Aquarius probably had unmonitored internet access growing up

Synastry: Personal Planets and House Overlays

Sun/Moon contacts are indicative of monogamous relationships or need for monogamy in one or both of the partners.

When the Sun and Moon are conjunct, the relationship is significant and mutually exclusive. The Moon supports the Sun in all of his endeavors with servitude and loyalty. If the relation is unbalanced, the Moon person begins to feel used after a period of time (if the Moon falls in a fire or air sign, this change occurs quickly, but in the Earth and Water element, it could take months to years.)

When the Sun and Moon square, the connection is intense and requires discipline and emotional commitment from both parties to make it work.

Sun trine or sextile someone's Moon is a relationship that feels emotionally nourishing. The Sun and Moon find it easy to rely on one another and have a natural chemistry.

Mercury contacts are platonic by nature. An emphasis on Sun/Mercury and Venus/Mercury contacts can be a mixed bag for someone you are romantically pursuing. The Mercury person easily falls into friend-zone terrority for the Sun and Venus person

When the Sun and Mercury square or oppose, the relationship is a significant one, but the Mercury person is easily annoyed by the Sun. Mercury finds Suns' personality to be overbearing and/or obnoxious. They feel they can hardly get a word into the conversation when Sun is in the room. The Sun person doesn't notice, at least not right away

Squared Mercuries have fundamental misunderstandings and disagreements about social matters.

When Sun and Mercury fall into the seventh house, the planet person considers the house person marriage material.

Venus conjunct Mercury are flirty partners. Going from friends to lovers is common with this contract.

Planets falling in someone's first house can breed envy especially the Sun and Venus. If the Sun or Venus fall in the first house and there are squares to the Moon, Sun, Venus, Mercury or Mars, this can indicate rivalry.

Second house emphasis in the synastry overlays could indicate a relationship that is solely transactional and material based. Eighth house overlays can be volatile if the square or opposition are involved.

A cluster of planets in the Eleventh and Third house axis emphasizes a brief but socially impactful encounter. The stellium person is opened up to a new community or social group by the house person. Roommates usually have overlays in the third and fourth houses.

The planet person has an influence on the sixth house person's health and daily routines.

When your Sun, Moon, Mercury or Venus fall in someone's twelfth house, the relationship may end on vague or confusing terms. If the planets fall under a Saturn ruled sign, this intensifies the effect.

Placements that inspire us

This week we lost legendary film director David Lynch. His TV series Twin Peaks and extensive filmography have been the source of countless imitations, references and parodies ranging from The Simpsons to Soul Eater, Scooby Doo to Gravity Falls, Gilmore Girls to Clueless.

David Lynch had his Capricorn Sun at the critical 29th degree, conjunct his Venus at 26 degrees, ascending Scorpio 18 degrees, Virgo Moon at 5 degrees conjunct the Midheaven, Saturn and mars retrograde and conjunct in Cancer at 20 degrees.

Capricorn Sun have many imitators. Elvis Presley had his Sun in Capricorn at 17 degrees. Their energy makes a lasting impression that easily sways the culture at large as well as the individuals they come in contact with.

Pluto was at 17 degrees Scorpio, conjunct Lynch’s ascendant, when Twin Peaks debuted. Pluto was at 17 degrees Capricorn when David Lynch began production of Twin Peaks: The Return, the long awaited third season of his revolutionary tv series that abruptly ended due to declining ratings while Pluto was at 22 degrees Scorpio in his first house.

Cardinals do not always try to influence people but they inadvertently do because their confidence is infectious. Aries, Cancer, Capricorn and Libra love to lead and they naturally inspire others in creative fields.

The fixed signs develop and interpret the messages and ideas of the cardinals. Taurus curates, Scorpio creates, Aquarius directs and Leo performs.

Cinema is ruled by the Leo/Aquarius axis. Fine arts and interior design are Taurus/Scorpio.

The Mutable signs are the trendsetters. They absorb elements from their environment and adjust accordingly. These are the shapeshifters, the spreaders of information. Gemini tells jokes, Virgo investigates, Sagittarius shares knowledge and Pisces develops language.

The gemini/virgo axis rules writing. Gemini writes, virgo edits. Gemini and Virgo placements are notoriously talented in writing and communications.

Scorpio and Aquarius Sun are natural influencers. People look to them to figure out what the latest thing is. As soon as people catch up to them, they are onto the next thing.

Neptune represents cinema. Neptune conjunct the ascendant have a close connection with cinema.

[capriquariusrising]

Synastry aspects: Personal planets

When someone’s Mercury closely conjuncts your moon (no more than 2-3 degrees apart) the connection is instantaneous and familiar. You feel like you have known this person for years upon for meeting.

When mercury is closely conjunct venus the relationship is flirty. In mutable fire Sagittarius the relationship is inspiring and spontaneous; in cardinal earth Capricorn the connection is serious and long lasting; in fixed air Aquarius there is a foundation of mutual interests/hobbies.

When your moon sextiles their mars, the attraction is palpable to you and to those around. In a cardinal fire fixed air connection the natives might remain flirty friends for years before becoming serious to others surprise.

When the sun is conjunct the moon the relationship is an important one in both people’s lives; the sun sees the moon as a source of emotionsl nourishment and the moon seeks to build the sun up. The problem with this contact arises when the sun takes on a dominating, superior role in the connection placing themselves above the moon subconsciously.

When the moon and the sun are squaring one another you get on each other’s nerves. The sun sees themselves as knowing better than the moon, the moon sees the sun as immature and indecisive

A mars and venus opposition is like When Harry met Sally; a mars/venus square is like Bella swan and edward cullen — I love you, I hate you, Go away, Please stay

When the sun conjuncts mars, the sun builds up mars, mars motivates the sun. Not an inherently romantic aspect

[capriquariusrising]

Mercury placements

Aries mercury complains a lot about insignificant things but has trouble discussing the larger issue at hand. Libra mercury sees the positive side of a difficult situation

Taurus mercury doesn’t mind small talk and surface level conversation. Scorpio mercury needs to get to the bottom of things

Cancer mercury listen intently. Capricorn mercury reveals more than they intend to with their words.

Gemini mercury is the gatherer of information, Sagittarius mercury is the spreader of knowledge

Leo mercury pivots every conversation back to themselves. Aquarius mercury changes the subject

Pisces mercury rewrites history. Virgo mercury remembers everything

[capriquariusrising]

Thrifty placements

Scorpio venus collects memorabilia

Pisces ruling the second house/neptune/jupiter in second house has a knack for thrifting clothes and antiquing

Mercury in the sixth house knows how to budget and take advantage of sales

Taurus suns tend to keep a close eye on their savings accounts. When their savings gets low they feel unstable

Capricorn placements enjoy collecting physical media; paying for streaming services and having a bunch of subscriptions in general feels like a waste of money to them

The moon in the second house needs to be frugal with money; work is seasonal and /or salary fluctuates

Cancer venus saves for a rainy day

Aquarius/capricorn risings and saturn closely conjunct the moon (esp when in 2h) lives a frugal lifestyle, they keep using the same things instead of buying new, they recycle, thrift and antique

Love signs

The cardinals are upfront in love. Aries initiates, libra flirts, cancer drops hits, capricorn hangs by.

Aries sun and venus are very affectionate. If they like you, you’ll know. It’s that simple with them.

Libra flatters you. They let you borrow their clothes. They say yes to almost everything.

Capricorn will want to provide for you and Cancer will want to take care of you. Text me when you get home. Come live with me.

The fixed signs are passive yet passionate. Taurus vegatates, scorpio devours, leo shines and Aquarius consumes. Taurus wants to do what they want to do. Aquarius wants to do whatever you want to do. Leo wants to show you off, scorpio wants to indulge you.

With the mutables, it is all about proximity. Sagittarius sun and venus in particular; you need to be where they’re at; to meet them where they’re at. Sagittarius lives in the moment, dating within their social circle. Same with gemini; needs similar social habits as their partner. A gemini sun/venus who is an extrovert would want to date another extrovert.

Gemini loves a foundation of friendship. If they like you they will talk about you to their friends.

Virgo loves a friend of a friend. They like someone on the same intellectual wavelength as them. They need someone with similar roots.

Pisces could love just about anybody but why would they when they could love a fire sign?

[capriquariusrising]

[capriquariusrising]

Moon emphasis

Moon energy is eerily familiar. Upon first meeting the characteristics of the moon person (moon conjunct ascendant, in first house, cancer asc) are ones that feel similar to someone we have known in our past; we may immediately link this person to someone we know or have known. The impression you get from the moon person has more to do with your relationship to whatever it is this person reminds you of; if the person, place or thing brings up good memories, this person feels like a comfort blanket. If the feelings attached are negative, you may get a bad impression of the moon person for no particular reason. You may get a bad feeling that isnt warranted; the case usually is that the moon person contradicts a preconceived idea of security and comfort.

Cancer risings and people with moon on the ascendent or first house can feel victimized by others. Others make snap judgements about them based on their personal biases leaving the moon person feeling out of control. The moon person hates to feel out of control.

Moon in the tenth house and especially closely conjunct the midheaven feel particularly watched out in public. Strangers get an immediate impression of vulnerability.

When the moon is in the first house and in a water or earth sign the native retreats into their inner world to escape the general harshness of people. This person needs a steady comfortable home environment that they have control over; if they live with parents or roommates or a spouse they need their own space to be happy, a room or rooms that they decorated, to fully feel secure. Otherwise they become irritable moody and frustrated; scrambling to control the environment around them.

The individual with the moon in the first house in a water sign is drawn to and feels comforted by bodies of water; cancer is rivers, lakes, shores, pisces the ocean and scorpio the deep seas.

When the moon falls in the first house and is in a fire or air sign the individual takes part in many hobbies, fire emotionally regulates through physical exercise, air regulates through technology and social media.

The moon is everchanging and thus so is the moon person. If the sun is in a fire sign, their outward expression and appearance changes based on their mood which is determined by the moon’s current cycle and sign. If the sun is an air sign, the appearance changes with trend cycles.

Saturn in pisces; transgressive politics, trans-panic, and the Christian revivalist movement

Saturn in pisces backslides. It regresses and rejects nonconformity. Saturn is the preserver of tradition, pisces evaporates all that it touches.

Saturn is pisces is a regressive saturn.

Saturn in pisces is the breakdown of infrastructure, floods and deep sea tragedies; The titanic submarine implosion, severe weather, record breaking floods in China.

The saturn in pisces generation will be highly sensitive to foreign affairs and negatively effected by economic strife. Recession, inflation and shrink-flation put a financial burden on the saturn in pisces generations’ parental figures.

Saturn in pisces also represents the new Christian revivalist movement which has lead to a revocation of reproductive rights and increase in trans-panic; the threat to gender affirming healthcare and attacks on the rights of transgender children.

Saturn in aries (saturn in fall) will be a period of radical individualism which could emphasize these themes or eradicate them entirely.

Neptune in Pisces – the "end times", fear mongering, and right-wing hysteria

Back in 2012, Neptune entered Pisces just in time for the 2012 phenomena; a cultural conspiracy movement which believed the world would come to an end in 2012. During the time of the 2007-2009 recession, the percentage of Americans who were unemployment doubled. Poor economic circumstances lead to more Americans attending church and we are seeing similar patterns today as inflation and rent prices continue to rise in the US.

Neptune is currently in the late degrees of pisces, and as Neptune closes out this cycle, we are collectively frustrated and disillusioned with our current systems. It is no surprise to me that with the rise in popularity of new age spirituality during the pandemic of the early 2020's came this movement of evangelicals as we are seeing today.

The homesteading community has sent my girlfriend and I straight down the conservative pipeline on both Tiktok and Instagram. With this has come a slue of videos outcrying about how we are in the end times -- a young man is close to tears as he describes a Canadian law that would "put Christians in jail for quoting the Bible" and that is was proof of the supposed end times. What this young man described was the proposed Bill C-367, "currently under review in the House of Commons, would repeal “religious exemption” in Section 319 of the Canadian Criminal Code, which critics say could open up Christians and other religious groups to “hate speech” charges over any comments or criticisms of the LGBT movement."

Jupiter and Uranus are currently conjunct in the sign of Taurus right now. The divide between the far left and the far right, the rich and the poor, and the privileged and underprivileged, has never been more palpable, and tensions are high. The two planets will exact one another around April 21st 2024, I expect some major world news/events to take place, perhaps an increase in protests.

Saturn is also in pisces. This week, the NYC governor declared a state of emergency and called in the national guard to patrol subway stations for vague and unclear reasons. This has lead many to speculate about what this could mean and understandably there is a lot of fear.

Overall: Loss of faith (neptune, pisces) in existing systems, structures and institutions (saturn) leading to belief in a higher power.

Confusing, vague circumstances surrounding security. Conspiracies surrounding homeland security. Our institutions and government systems (saturn) are lacking clear definitions and boundaries (pisces). Boundaryless authority (saturn pisces). Fear (saturn) of the unknown (pisces).
