THE YOD ASPECT PATTERN

I know there isn’t a lot of information out there on Yods (AKA- Gods pointing finger, Finger of fate, etc) and I’ve had a heap of requests to make a post on this fairly rare aspect pattern. I plan on going further in-depth with Yods at a later date but for now, this is what I know…

The Yod in astrology is often found in the charts of people whose lives are colored by intensity and constant adjustment.

Yods symbolize patterns in families that have lasted for generations. Carriers of the “Finger of Fate” can also feel insecure or have trouble expressing themselves and they may often find themselves in unusual situations. People with Yods in their chart have a restlessness, like a sense of their unique purpose and a calling to be their authentic selves at any expense.

The discomfort of a Yod tends to manifest more in the mental and emotional realms. Yod people may always feel like some crucial understanding or piece of information is missing—one that would help transcend the irritating sense that things are not quite as they should be.

👉🏼👇🏼👈🏼

If you have one or more Yods in your astrology chart:

You elicit strong, recurring responses from your environment that you don’t understand

Your parents had trouble comprehending you as a child (and as an adult)

You maneuver through intense circumstances that would break other people’s spirits

You experience things “out of the blue” that are beyond general life events

What crosses your path often involves some scare, shock, security threat, or some other uncomfortable situation over which you cannot exercise any influence. Strange events simply “happen,” often out of the blue

Simply put, the role of Yod bearer is to break ancestral patterns. Yods are strange, but also somewhat mystical and fated. Those who have Yods in their birth charts are here to shed light upon patterns that have gone unaddressed for generations. The planet at the top point of the yod is the solution. When the yod is activated you have the choice to make society better or worse and your choice can not be undone. Whatever fate you choose is set in stone. No pressure.

Side note: Yods can also be a health aspect. You have 2 planets in a sextile so they get along really well and then you have the activation point…It is always a sign that is not Compatible with the other two which causes irritation.

Example: Someone who has a very long history of being ill and fighting to figure out what is wrong & why has a yod containing Mars in Aries in the 6th quincunx the sextile planets. Neptune in Scorpio in the 1st and Pluto in Virgo in the 11th. Which Jupiter in Virgo in 12th is in opposition to the Mars in Aries.

The meaning of chart patterns in astrology

Seesaw pattern: it feels like these natives are constantly being pulled in two different directions in their lives, reflected by the planets situated on the opposing ends of the astrological wheel, forming two clusters. This may lead to feeling disoriented and/or maybe attracting situations where the natives’ real values are being called into question.

Their life is characterised by duality, sometimes expressing the energies of one planetary cluster, and other times behaving unexpectedly or in a contradictory fashion (when the energy of the other cluster is being expressed).

You may also find that you identify more with one “end” of the seesaw and have the tendency to deny/reject the other part of yourself that you find less desirable.

Relationships likely mean a great deal to you and it’s only in relationships that you feel truly complete and balanced. You may be unconsciously seeking the very same energy in other people that you deny within yourself.

It’s important: to accept that there are contradictory sides to your personality and integrate them as best as you can. Aim to achieve balance. Some people may find it weird. But this is what it means to be you. And if you learn how to properly utilise your gifts, you’ll be able to accomplish absolutely extraordinary things! Look at Robert Downey Jr. and Frank Sinatra’s charts for inspiration🫶

Bowl pattern: these people have solid values, are stable and probably have a good grasp of their weaknesses. There may be a reluctance to get out of their comfort zone and they may always feel like “something” is missing from their life (the other half of the wheel). They will be looking for that special half that makes them feel complete.

They aren’t dual or contradictory like the see-saw or splay people, but rather constant and they have specific talents and attributes that are reflected in the houses their planets fall into and.

They may not be as flexible or open to change as other patterns. They are focused, resilient and self-contained typically. There may be a need to develop certain qualities that they miss.

Depending on which side of the wheel is occupied, it manifests differently in the native’s life. If the upper half is occupied: there is more focus on external activities: social gatherings, public image etc. If the lower half of the wheel is occupied, the emphasis will be on the family, home, closer relationships, the self. If the planets fall on the right side of the wheel, the person will be easier to influence, and personal relationships will be quintessential to the native’s well-being. And finally if the planets are all on the left side of the wheel, the person will be enterprising, self-motivated and with a strong direction in their life.

Special attention should be given to the leading planet, that is to say the first one that is situated counterclockwise starting from the empty space.

Dominik Cruz and Ella Fitzgerald had this chart pattern.

Locomotive pattern: these people are independent and self-starters. They have a thinking of their own and often may feel misunderstood. Their ideas are ahead of their time usually. They can be motivational and quite stubborn. They are ambitious and steadfast people who have quite a few interests. Their focus is not as narrow as with bundle type. They are energetic people who want to improve the world around them and may feel a constant sense of “emptiness”, as though something is missing in their life.

It’s important to look at the first planet that rises clockwise starting from the empty space. It will significantly influence the native’s life.

George Washington and Isaac Newton had this chart pattern.

Bundle pattern: the native’s focus is oriented in limited, very specific areas of their life, in detriment to other important areas. They are very focused and driven people who usually become proeficient, real masters in whatever activity/job they have chosen for themselves.

There could be a tendency to be narrow-minded, rigid or unusually ignorant in areas outside of their interest range with this pattern however. Obsessive thoughts and behaviours are also possible. It’s an excellent chart type for a professional athlete, politician or car mechanic for example, depending on the houses and signs.

These people are passionate, unique, strongly hold onto their identities and are relentless when pursuing their chosen goal. They might feel like “something” is missing in their life and they need someone who teaches them to think outside the box and help them develop their weaker energies in their chart.

Harrison Ford and Sylvester Stallone had this chart pattern.

Splay pattern: these people are incredibly talented and have lots of potential. Their interests are in 3-4 areas and they may sometimes find it difficult to concentrate as their attention is quite divided. They are individualistic, inquisitive and open-minded people who have the potential to achieve great things if they “pull themselves together”. Their talents could be unrelated to one another and they may fight it hard to integrate their strengths into something concrete/tangible.

Some call this chart pattern the tripod.

These natives definitely march to the rhythm of their own drums. They are adaptable people who make interesting conversation partners.

They don’t like strict schedules or being stuck into routine for too long.

The aim should be on correctly distributing their focus so that they properly develop their talents and live up to their potential.

Franklin Roosevelt and Sandra Bullock had/have this chart pattern.

Splash pattern: these people’s talents are incredibly diverse. They are open-minded, inquisitive, curious people. They enjoy exploring different ideas, activities. The love new things and probably have lots of hobbies and interests. Choosing one career option is probably very difficult for them. They don’t like to focus on one single activity for too long, contrary to bundle pattern people. Their attention is very divided. They can be forgetful at times.

They likely have mercurial qualities and can easily adapt to almost any situation. They make very flexible people.

They can be quite confused especially during their youth or feel like they can’t find their direction in life. There is a desire for self-reflection and independence inherent within this placement. Many famous thinkers such as Carl Jung and Firjof Capra had this chart pattern.

They may have trouble focusing or be scattered due to which they never develop any of their talents deeply and fully. Their outlook on life is broad and brain-oriented.

Bucket pattern: these people are ambitious, enterprising, passionate, self-contained; they pursue their goals in a realistic fashion. It’s important to look at the planet that plays the role of the handle as it will play an important role in the natives’s life (the sign and house, major aspects).

They want to be recognised for their talents and be part of society in some way; they likely focus their attention in a single direction when trying to achieve their goals. The “handle” signifies the area of their life where they invest most of their energy or where they seek satisfaction.

They could be predisposed to conflict or do their best to avoid it.

Their challenge is learning to manage the energy of the “handle.”

Like with the bowl pattern they could at times feel like something is missing in their life.

Will Smith and Prince Charles have this chart pattern.

Pluto Aspects - Why You Can't Sleep At Night

Inspired by the poll I did as I found it cool that people would be so interested in this topic. I am really into sleep and dream astrology because I get WACKY dreams

Did some of these with tarot as I haven't personally observed every one. However I find my deck to be very accurate regards personality and these all seemed to fit so as always take what resonates and leave the rest

What's more, in the modern world we identify a lot with our conscious mind and are our of sync with our subconscious and instincts. Paying attention to your sleep and tuning back into your sleep cycle can help you become more aware of this and your intuition too.

As a permaculture designer I have a lot of observations on how we are out of touch with nature and our more holistic side loosely compiled in this masterlist here.

Conjunct:

Sun - you identify too much with your dreams

Mercury - you may feel hampered or hounded by memories of things you wish you had or hadn't said

Moon - old emotions and things you'd rather not feel come up at night...

Venus - you can't stop thinking of what you want to manifest

Mars - you are too wound up during the day and carry the unconscious energy of 1000 things you wish hadn't happened

Opposition:

Sun - you feel worried by your dreams or what you might discover when your mind as no distractions

Mercury - you feel like you are out of tune with yourself and carry too many pressures from other people

Moon - you are one of the most likely ones to experience weird feelings, energies, or desires when you get into bed and try to fall asleep. sometimes there is an odd atmosphere in the room.

Venus - you feel inadequate or apprehensive about your worth and value. subconscious insecurity

Mars - you have pent up anger that you haven't released and may get too involved in fantasies where you come out on top

Square:

Sun - there is something unconfirmed, in conflict, hidden, or unfinished about your identity

Mercury - you are experiencing a subconscious or spiritual blockage at the moment

Moon - you are scared of somethig about yourself

Venus - you feel like your worth or value is judged or like you may be missing or hiding part of your value from yourself

Mars - the well known mars pluto aspect, this can keep you awake because you feel persecuted, hunted or harassed in your waking life. by focussing on your root (if you can) and grounding and centering yourself you can approach and manage this difficult aspect with more spiritual strength

Trine:

Sun - you are kept up because you have too many ideas or feel inspired. Alternatively you may be kept up thinking about what other people think of you :/

Mercury - You may be excited by new possibilities and kept up due to too much focus on spiritual things without grounding. This aspect can get REALLY deep into stuff like astral projection etc.

Moon - you may feel overwhelmed and unable to interpret your own emotions

Venus - something or someone from a past life is influencing or visiting you

Mars - you have got into an intense or dark relationship that, while fulfilling, may be overwhelming you

Aspect Patterns

Aspect Patterns are a combination of different aspects that create a clear shape or pattern in a natal chart. See the image below. These patterns give more insight into the relationship between the planets and aspects. Each pattern could truly have a whole blog post dedicated to them, but below are summaries.

T-square and Kite aspect patterns from "The Astrology Bible" by Judy Hall"

T-square: Associated with stress and challenges. This aspect is where at least two planets oppose each other and both square a third planet. This causes a lot of tension, especially towards that squared planet. While the opposition indicates clashing needs, wants, and tendencies the two planets will have frustration and potentially inner stress, worry, or anger with/towards the squared planet. The goal is to balance the opposing energies and find strength, beauty, or maybe usefulness from how different the squared body is.

Grand Trine: When three trines connect and form a pattern it indicates a lot of harmonious and comfortable flowing energy. It can boost intuition, creativity, self-confidence, decisiveness, and many other traits. The positive influence is going to greatly depend on the planets involved. However sometimes frustration, stress, sadness, and anger could be hard to express with a grand trine as there isn't an "outlet" or more challenging aspect to add depth to the dynamic of the pattern. The pattern could promote stagnation in some way.

Kite: Associated with both challenges and potential. A complex pattern with three planets forming a trine (also known as a grand trine pattern) and the fourth planet is opposed by one of the trined planets. This forms a sextile aspect to the other two planets. The trine promotes creativity, harmony, and easy expression however the rest of the pattern presents challenges to meet this. Depending on the planets involved confidence in one's expression may be challenged the most often. However the planet opposite the trine’s focal point is key to unlocking the kite’s potential.

Grand Cross: Introspection, resilience and/or willpower towards obstacles, and tapping into hidden potential and weaknesses are themes that revolve around this pattern. Here two oppositions are connected by four squares. Support and strategy are two needs for those with this pattern. Self-awareness is a must to be able to understand the support you need from others and for avoiding impulsiveness or self-destructive tendencies.

Finger of Fate (yod): This involves two quincunxes linked by a sextile. If a planet falls in opposition to the tip of the triangle the pattern forms then energy can be expressed or released. The planet at the point/tip may be a focal point or set the tone for the entire pattern. This is considered a rare pattern and has themes of spirituality, transformation, heightened intuition, karmic lessons or obligations, and unique challenges.

Grand Sextile: A pattern that has six sextiles linked together to form a circle. Harmony and cooperation may be seen among the planet's "relationships" in this pattern. This means the associations and expression of the planets can easily sync, support each other, or at least won't ever cause tension or overshadow one another. An example of this is the Moon and Mercury being part of the grand sextile would indicate emotions and intellect tend to be in balance or at least never tempt or confuse each other. This pattern is known to be favorable for creativity, intuition, problem solving, and mystic talents or connections. This is considered a rare pattern.

Finger of Fate, Grand Sextile, Grand Cross, Grand Trine

[bxtxnx]

Pro tip: If you feel hopeless that nothing is working out for you, see if you have a big red triangle aka a T-square in your chart.

T-squares are aspect patterns, made up of one opposition and two squares between planets, that bring stagnation and their apex planet (the one that forms the two squares) is the key to getting out of that stagnation and how you can find success.

I know best just how hard a T-square can hold you back, since I have two of them in my chart. I also know best how to work with them, since I've learned from experience, since very few people know what's the deal with this aspect pattern, both professional and non-professional astrologers.

[northopalshore]

Hello, hope you feel ok now (just read about ur caution back then).

I'm show you that composite chart cuz I want to ask about the unique shape that it made, Will it give other perspective rather the aspects and overlay read?

Please note I'm not worth for your reading, so no need to do that cuz I just want to ask someone who more understand about it. I'm sorry cuz maybe if it disturb you for your schedule posts (please, no need to answer it if you to busy). Thank you 😉

Ps: that's not my chart so I'm not really known their real dynamic relation but it's really interesting how the on/off situation happen.

Hello! You don't have to be so humble lmao I never meant it like that.

Aspect patterns are quite interesting to look at, because in a way, it sort of gives you an idea of what the individuals are like in the relationship but not really as much as other aspects. It can also tells you more details about certain aspects. My favourite to see is the grand trine. A perfect, symmetrical triangle with a planet occupying every 4 planets in the same element.

For example: You have Chiron in the 1st house of Sagittarius (fire) which normally means that you'll struggle with body image, but if it forms say a grand trine (blue lines usually) to Venus in the 5th or Jupiter in the 9th it's likely that you'll receive a lot of support form those areas to lessen the burden you feel in regards to your appearance i.e have a more positive, and understanding mindset to overcome it. You are also more resilient.

Grand trine

In this chart however, I'll just point out the obvious one to explain.

What a grand cross looks like: it's not in this chart though.

There's a double opposition but it doesn't form a grand cross which usually makes the planets/houses they're in rather tensed or uneasy (because they're originally oppositions with squares added). Depending on the planets involved it can cause significant issues and hard lessons within the relationship.

In this case the cross (crossing oppositions) involves hard aspects between Saturn-Mars & Neptune-moon, but soft aspects between Saturn-Neptune & Mars-Moon. There could be a lot of clash between expectation and reality when it comes to this relationship. Perhaps both dreamt of it lasting in the long run but because of their own personal goals, feelings and general incompatibility it's just not looking too good. They'll find themselves getting frustrated over the smallest things when they're together. Intense connection that works in their head, but not realistically. Not to say they're hopeless however.

The spike

It's formed by two planets being sextile to one another, with a third planet being exactly 150° to the other two points, or quincunx.

Can be a pretty good thing to see although it depends on the chart. It can show you where the relationship can manifest itself or its potential,or where it can be difficult to manoeuvre but not as commonly observed, at least to me. Also referred to as yod. Look at the planets involved and where it's pointing especially if there is a cluster of planets in one house/sign.

Also, that 8th house stellium (a.ka cluster) is also probably a huge part of that on again off again cycle as it's the cause of that karmic pull. You hate them, but you want them, they love each other but they want the other out of their life lmao. Both likely have some sort of karmic debt to repay together.

Hope this helps!

So this question is for my astrology girlies who is familiar with aspect patterns in western astrology,

What are your thoughts and observations about the mystic rectangle and the grand trine?

[neverfeltthewinterquitesodead]

thinking about an astrology lady i emailed when i was 11 because i wanted to get my chart read and she was like "holy shit your chart is crazy please let me read it its one of the most powerful (?) ones ive EVER seen" and i had to tell her i was a child and couldnt pay for the full reading. she couldve just been bullshitting me but a friend also read my palm (for free) when i was 15 and said my palm was crazy and i had the thickest Something line shed ever seen. so maybe i have a destiny or something 😇

Shining a light on “unfavorable” placements. pt.1

Within astrology, I notice a lot of people addressing only the dark sides of dark placements. These placements being considered as unfavorable and or “unfortunate”. However, tougher aspects/placements are generally considered to be gifts, though they are challenges, I see them as direct callings on what allows the individual to reach success. I am not a professional but these are patterns/observations I make from personal experience and life all around me. Now buckle up, this’ll be a long post, I’ll be discussing only planetary/object placements, next part will be aspects however, less descriptive.

-----------------------------------------------

12H & 8H Suns and Moons

12H Suns are considered to be unfavorable however, this placement is actually a gift, though the sun is “shadowed” in this area; individuals with 12H are actually here on a mission, though it is bleak to see, individuals with this placement have power and it’s not even locked potential, it’s just power that they cannot see themselves but naturally exude. 12H suns are directly connected to the subconscious, they have this “one foot in one foot out” approach to reality, they are immensely creative and are gifted with compassion at early ages, though they don’t realize it, they tend to be ahead of the game in the early stages of life

12H Moons; these individuals are given heavy emotions, probably even a transformative connection with their mother, their emotions is where their spiritual knowledge lies, they have strong intuition and are the true empaths of astrology. Those with this placement are driven by their feelings, they know the ins and outs and have all the secrets, this is more hidden/internal knowledge, similar to 12H suns, they can gain a lot of knowledge later in life

Now 8H Suns/Moons are similar to one another. Individuals with these placements have true power in them, and they are gifted with depth and intensity that people are actually afraid of. These are the type of people to get told something toxic about themselves and they hit you with a “I know.” or they will outwardly tell you themselves (If other points in the chart agree). They are masters when it comes to shadow work and they are constantly changing–if you don’t see them for at least a month and they come back, their mindset could have taken a complete 180, for better or for worse. The 8H expands everything it touches, it creates an intense amount of depth to the matter. These individuals also tend to have a lot of people that will outwardly try to put them down, whether it is directly or indirectly, they also tend to have karma on their side. Their Image(Sun) and their emotions(moon)are heavily protected and praying on these individuals' downfall is like asking for a spiritual ass whooping.

Mercury in Pisces & Sagittarius:

Having Mercury in Pisces is an unfavorable placement, these individuals could be seen as forgetful, in a constant cycle of daze, and emotionally detached. However, the thoughts that boil within the brain of this placement is insane. I mean, we have a civil rights activist and a famous genius with this placement, if that doesn’t tell you anything idk what to tell you. These individuals are gifted with a lot of creativity, their thoughts actually run a mile a minute, they are typically well versed in various hobbies, these are the type of people if you ask what they do they might not give you one answer and hang around them long enough, you will see them having a new hobby every week. The ADHD masters, they’ll tell you they never played an instrument and hop on and immediately sound like an intermediate musician. These people have seen and heard it all, they are intelligent and their words hold weight. They say one thing and it’ll last you a lifetime, their advice sits in the back of people’s minds, their words are food for the soul, everything they say is more calculated and meaningful than even they think themselves. Truly underrated.

Next my lovely Sagittarian Mercuries. These individuals could be seen as rude, blunt, obnoxious, and or lacking emotional depth but just like their jupiterian sister pisces; they are much wiser than they put on. These individuals are witty, they are intelligent, they are humorous, their words hold power as well, they tell the truth and they build people up, they’re down to earth and self-assured, they have a way of making people listen, they are captivating in their words and can be lyrically gifted, natural poets in their own way.

Cadent Dominant Placements:

Being Cadent Dominant in my learnings is considered to have most of your placements within the 3H, 6H, 9H, and 12H. In addition, in case you don’t know, cadent houses are the houses further away from the angular houses and after the succedent houses, they tend to be where the most work has to happen are seen as challenging placements to have. Now, these individuals are smart as fuck, for lack of a better term. They are gifted with an inner drive, a drive that not many people will see or understand but themselves, these individuals have the power of moving masses. Though their efforts are indirect, they tend to hit people when it’s least expected–driven, misunderstood and powerful. 3H placements are well versed in communication, 6Hers know how to get shit done, 9Hers and 12Hers are mass movers and the backbone influencers. Having these placements indicate someone important, possibly even beyond a metaphysical sense. They don’t stop until they win and their perseverance is remarkable just as their lives are.

Saturn/Uranus/Pluto Ruled or Dominance (etc.)

Talk about “fuck around and find out”, these indivudals are like the older or even the middle children in astrology, many people with significant Pluto/Saturn/Uranus in their chart, this includes being ruled(MC & ASC), having it as a dominant planet, placed within the 1H, or aspecting Sun/Moon/Asc–tend to be protected like crazy. They tend to go through a lot of inner struggle and tend to constantly have something to work on, it’s like once they’re done with one lesson they’re given another. It’s like being stuck with chores all day and you’re finally done with your last one and once you’re about to step outside or go to your room to lay down, their parents call them and ask them to do something else and the cycle goes on lol. These individuals are resilient and are hardworking, they’re unique and nothing generally gets past them, you fuck with them, you’re fucking with their team as well, and best believe the universe is ready to dish back what you sent in tenfold; this even applies to the individual, but they rarely fuck up cause they know how it can get everytime. Gifted with power, control and drive, these individuals are goal-oriented, they don’t let anything get in their way and if there is even a slight indication of a distraction about to occur, they shut it down real quick. I like this.

Saturn in Angular Houses (1H, 4H, 7H, 10H) and HM: 5H.

Saturn in these houses are hard hitting. Cracking my knuckles because I’m about to go IN. I will state the

To start, Saturn in the 1H, these individuals are constantly met with lessons that have to do with their identity, they will be put in situations where they are physically limited and their identity is limited/restricted, these people will obsess over themselves and hold themselves to a high standard. However, even through this, these individuals not only directly have karma on their side, but they are ultimately gifted with a deep knowing of self, they build their identity and it is a literal weapon to anyone who brings murky intentions into their world, simply because of how resilient they are and how much they worked through restriction in the past.

For Saturn in the 4H, they may have had issues that involved restriction with their family, this is heavy because they sat through that for their entire lives, up to 18 and possibly even further than that. These individuals weren’t able to make a house a home or generally find a proper home. In their older years, they work with this energy to make a place for themselves and others, they have the power of compassion and comfort.

For Saturn in the 7H & 5H, these individuals are known to have tough luck in love, relationships are rare and if they have many relationships, they are often restrictive and unsatisfactory. They may struggle additionally with their sense of worth and bear a false outlook on love. However, in some moments in their younger years and in their older years, they possess deep knowledge on love, they seem to take it seriously and their love is rich, they are gifted with deep compassion and the ability to be long term with other people. They have unforgettable love, and they are typically unforgettable people as a whole.

Lastly for Saturn 10H, these people could feel restricted career wise, they may feel that they’re always being attacked in their reputation and are held from their true potential, however, they actually overextend themselves more than what they were meant, they can influence and hold a lot of power.

These can also be applied to Pluto as well, with more of a transformative foundation, however, Saturn and Pluto tend to be both extremely transformative planets.

Chiron in Succedent Houses (2H, 5H, 8H, 11H)

These placements tend to fit in a similar category, they are often scarred with themes that are prioritized in life; Money, Fun, Transformation and Community. They tend to see others experience joy and balance within these themes however, they find that this is the source of their trauma and unhealthy codependency that they desire to break away from. Ultimately, these individuals are gifted with strength and influence, they are creative, influential and open-minded when conflicts are properly addressed.

-----------------------------------------------

In this post, I went into depth on placements that have more power than what is spoken about them; however, the dark tends to hold more truth about the light than the light does of itself. The placements listed are powerful and resilient, gifted with all sorts of things, and if you believe that something in your chart is insignificant, understand that astrology is a tool to access potential, it can hint at traits but it is not a concrete definition because there are other calculations that exist and have existed even beyond Traditional Western astrology. Next part will be on aspects, thank you for reading.

we don't talk about aspect patterns enough because why did I just found out I have a big ass T-square on my chart?

[astrolook]

⏳The ‘Unluckiest’ Aspects: Why Some People Always Struggle (And How to Break the Cycle) ⏳

Note: These are my personal observations over the years. The patterns I’ve seen show up again and again in real life, not just in textbooks. If it resonates, cool. If not, toss it to the stars.

Saturn in 1st - Born serious. Life said “smile later.” Grew up faster than everyone else and now wonders why joy feels like a scam. Inner child needs a hug. Might have been bullied as a kid.

Moon in 12th - You may have grown up suppressing feelings to survive. Emotional isolation follows you, even in crowds. No one knows how you're feeling because you don’t either. Emotional GPS is foggy. Cries alone and doesn’t know why. Dreams are emotional landfills.

Mars square Neptune - You swing between chasing visions and total burnout. Also, your anger either leaks out or vanishes when you need it. You’re passionate but disoriented, craving purpose without a map. Motivation disappears like socks in the dryer.

Saturn in 5th - Creativity feels like pressure instead of pleasure. You might fear being seen as silly, vulnerable, or untalented. Tough dating life or non-existent.

Chiron in 2nd - You link value to productivity, money, or external approval. Financial instability = emotional instability. Feels personally attacked by every bill. Buys love or denies pleasure. Abundance feels suspicious.

Moon square Saturn - Emotional constipation. You learned early to suppress emotional needs for safety. You love was likely earned, rationed, or absent. You judge yourself for feeling “too much” or “too little.”

Pluto in 4th - Your family may have had secrets, trauma, or control issues or felt like a pressure cooker. You are on survival mode. You might fear vulnerability because you equate it with danger.

Neptune in 6th - You could get exploited in your work place or it drained you to the core. Your body responds more to emotions than logic. Reality glitches. Could romanticize suffering as devotion to duty, in some cases.

Mars in 12th - You are your own enemy. Anger goes underground. Blows up once a year, spectacularly. You sabotage your own drive before others can judge it. Your anger turns inward, manifesting in anxiety or illness.

Sun opposite Pluto - You’re constantly torn between control and surrender. Power struggles follow you in both relationships and identity. Transformation comes after a meltdown.

Mercury square Saturn - You words buffer in real life. Your thoughts feel like they need a permission slip. You might struggle to communicate because of early invalidation. You second-guess even your clearest ideas.

Mercury rx in 3rd - You overthink your overthinking, then rewrite it three times. Early school years felt like decoding a foreign language. Words often fail you mid-sentence, especially when they matter.

Mars rx in 1st - You feel guilty for wanting things, even basic ones. Anger simmers silently or explodes after repression. You don’t fight until your identity feels erased. Initiative feels hard when self-worth is in question.

Jupiter rx in 5th/9th - Your beliefs come from within, not institutions. You’ve always questioned the rules, even spiritual ones. Teachers disappointed you, so you became your own. Faith is personal, earned, and ever-shifting.

Uranus rx in 5th/11th - You want to fit in just not like them. Seriously, friendships feel like freedom tests or social experiments. You fear conformity but crave belonging.

Mercury rx square Neptune - Communication feels like trying to text through fog. You say one thing, feel another, and mean a third. Imagination is wild but so is your confusion. People misunderstand you and you misunderstand yourself.

Weekly Dream Analysis | Creepy Dream Stuff

🌌 Sleepwalking can be common for those with any exalted planet in the 12th house. All the subconscious energies can be stro ger which makes the boundary between sleep and wakefulness, stillness and movement, much thinner.

🌌 Those who have transits of their 12th house or 8th house by an asteroid may experience sleep paralysis, especially if there is something troubling them subconsciously.

🌌 Pluto placements in a physical, visceral house such as the eighth or fifth may experience night terrors more frequently.

🌌 A medium speed planet such as venus or mars, or even a transiting mercury retrograde, can cause periods of extremely vivid, weird, or disturbing dreams if it transits a difficult placement. This could be a malefic planet like mars or saturn in a difficult sign, a peregrine planet or planet in fall or detriment, or even a planet that has a tense aspect in the chart.

🌌 Pluto aspects can influence the quality of nightmares if you get them. Pluto aspecting anything in the eighth house can make you more prone to intense dreams, e.g. pluto square an eighth house mars can lead to especially difficult dreams.

🌌 If you often wake at 3 am, you may have placements that make you more in tune with the collective unconscious. This hour is when boundaries between worlds are thinnest (supposedly) so particularly sensitive people can be influenced by things going on beyond the immediate mundane world. This includes lilith in scorpio, pluto in any interpersonal house (e.g. 3rd, 8th), south node in 12th house, and so on. This is not a definitive list, just some of the likely culprits. Basically anything that is a combination of intuition and collective/communicative energies can be woken by the '3 am phenomenon'.

🌌 This kind of astrology is all about the 12th house and very often about black moon lilith. Black moon lilith can cause strange things to happen to you at night including involutary projection and lucid dreaming especially if it aspects an exalted planet, then the dreams will take on the quality of that planet.

🌌 When is unusual stuff most likely to happen at night? Here are some of the most likely times:

You have just been doing shadow work

It is a full or new moon

There has been an eclipse

Between 3-4 am, especially around 03:33

You have been trying to lucid dream

You have been trying to astral project

If two or more of the above apply, you can be prepared for weird night time disturbances. And if you have ANYTHING in your chart whatsoever that can break down barriers between the conscious and unconscious worlds, you are more likely to experience this kind of thing.

In summary: these are partly predictions partly experience. I have lilith in the 3rd house which has resulted in a LOT of communication with my shadow. Remember 3rd house isn't just interpersonal communications and technology but also communication with yourself and with your id or shadow. I went through a phase of almost always waking at 3 am as a teenager and still experience this quite often.

Also at this point all the birds stop singing and as a result I could tell after a while without looking at a clock whether I had woken in the 'witching hour' or not and often could not get back to sleep until it was past 4.

Intuition placements 🌙

I know I haven't posted in a long time, lost some motivation and life challenging me, but for now I'm back?

most people confuse instincts and sensitivity to intuition. so for now, i decided to describe exactly solely based on intuition. for sensitivity, I'll do another post.

Please do not plagerise my post, and if you want to use some of my notes, give credit to me and DM me 🫶🏻

mercury - neptune - these people get lost in their minds mostly. their dreams can affect the way they think during the day, so their thinking pattern can vary from completely normal and empty to chaotic and foggy

mercury - uranus - creates abstract mindset full of unpredictable thoughts. in some cases, I've seen these people have random things to talk about purely based on intuition. later, when people tell them that, it might cause a shock because they didn't think their random thought could turn out to be true

moon - mercury - common aspect indicating a person can speak directly about something they feel can also apply for hard aspects, but it's lesser prone to speak correctly 🌙

moon - neptune rx - these people can have 5 book lores in one night. at this point, they dont even need to read because of how weird their dreams can be. neptune Rx is a placement more prone to intuition than direct neptune 🌙

moon - uranus rx - chaoticism in emotional balance is present, causing it to fail. these people are prone to having their moods swing a lot because of outer influence that made them feel that way. people with this placement should be careful with who they spend their time with. Also, those mood swings usually present empathy towards someone, so they might pick up their energy.

8th/12th/4th house placements - those are water house placements, and the element of water is connected to intuition.

south node - moon/mercury - althrought this placement indicates a person who will always stay in confort zone, south node is connected to past life karma so deja vus can be experienced and intuition along in recognizing someone with whom you feel like you already know then before meeting them (same goes for 12th/4th house synastry?)

direct mercury - people with mercury rx are not that blessed with intuition from my observations in real life. Only can be saved if in aspect to uranus rx or neptune rx. These people are pretty much prone to misinterpreting.

8th/12th/4th house rulers in aspect to moon, mercury or neptune - again, water house rulers in aspect to these planets indicated intuition. It is even better if the rulers are those planets and not afflicted.

all the mentioned planets in air/water signs - i mentioned air because its butterlfy energy can cause random thoughts, unpredictable. Yet, needs water placements along with it in order to make a person unpredictably intuitive.

uranus rx/neptune rx - as i read from some serbo-croatian astrology books, retrograde energy connects those planets to a divine matter, making an individual with those placements in chart prone to intuition all suddenly. However, the planets should be in aspect to moon/mercury/venus and in positive aspect to saturn and in water houses.

That's it for now. I hope you enjoyed these notes and see them as useful 🫶🏻❤️

Astrology observations 🌸🌷🌸

With Neptune Square MC you probably don't see yourself in a »typical« career. Also, other people or the public so to say has a false understanding of your role in the society, your status, career and even about your relationship with your parents. You are confused about your profession or your life path. You quite literally might need to pretend in your job (such as being an actor) or you feel like you cannot be you, but instead play a role (counsellor). There is a barrier of illusion here, because in your career you cannot be just you, but it's often a role you are »pretending« for.

Moon opposite Chiron: with Chiron hitting the Moon here, there is usually an emotional vulnerability from the past (either from the family or the mother) and you feel it comes up again and again in your relationships. You often feel emotions are »too much« or you don't feel understood emotionally enough. You have felt that it is not safe to express your feelings at home. Yet now you deeply understand other's emotions, but at the same time you are scared of emotional closeness.

Uranus square Pluto: you often feel repressed, restricted in a public job or working for another's company. You like going against the norm. You may lose your job and randomly start your own company, because you don't like to be controlled. Only when you are in crisis or chaos, you actually end up making a change.

Jupiter trine Saturn: you build things really slowly in life. You often approach it with structure and a vision with a plan. You may even help build a school or a company. This aspect is very much »start up« energy.

Pluto in the 4th house, you grew up in a family where there was survelliance of some sort or family member were too critical. This rarely means actual death of a family member, but instead you lost something very important, like divorce of your parents or loss of a healthy family dynamic. You felt you couldn't trust emotions and relationships at home, so at times you have a hard time trusting others or have a hard time building long-term, stable relationships. Feelings of safety, protection and love were not openly expressed. Or they were conditioned with power, control or sometimes even fear. One parent usually had weak control or was completely physically or emotionally absent. You may feel that you don't know who you really are when you peel off outer mask or the influence of your family. You may often move, renovate your home or quite literally lose it and build a new one. Or you destroy everything what you had and build new emotional and physical connections. You could also move far away due to feeling of releasing the burden of family legacy or to break from your heritage, inherited patterns. You may not be as patriotic too, almost like there is sort of disdain for your home country. There is an indirect transfer of trauma from a family member, you feel like you carry the weight of events you didn't directly experienced.

Lilith in the 4th house is tricky. I would say even more than Pluto in the 4th, because at least Pluto can »reintroduce« themselves and transform many points in life. Lilith here touching your roots, emotional world, family, what can end up happening is you isolating yourself a lot. You often have a feeling of rebellion or being left out like a general feeling or feeling you experience at home or with your family. But often you isolate, when you don't work through your past family patterns. Usually this placement later on builds a home and a family life completely based on their own terms and principles.

If you have North Node in the 2nd house, yeah figure out your values in life as soon as possible. Because when you don't, you end up being too giving and sacrifical to others. In this lifetime, you need to develop financial literacy, develop talents and practical skills. Your life lesson will be learning to be self-sufficient, knowing your worth and creating generational wealth basically. You probably came from emotional dependency or an environment with addiction, substance abuse problems, but you need to learn stable confidence in your adulthood.

Surprisingly, Uranus in the 12th house is that one low-key placement that could ALSO indicate having a feeling of leading a double life. And what I mean by this, you have your outter mundane, normal life and an inner life full of »aha moments«, deep transformations, secret rebellion, resentment towards the old structures or anything that you deem too conventional in community. There is this feeling that the real »you« is hidden or within you, but not visible to others. You have an inner understanding that you are different from others, but you never say that to others or share this with others, you keep quiet.

With Neptune in the 12th house, here a double life could also be found. But from much different reasons than Uranus in the 12th. There are usually troubles differenciating between what's real and what's ficional, imaginative or illusory. So you often don't say anything, because you feel others just won't understand or see you as someone »just a little odd«.
