The savior complex is something 6H, 8H and 12H placements share but for different reasons - still it's something to fight against, save yourself first and then let's see what's left to help others.
6H placements = the nurse complex
Trying to help everyone healing, trying to make people have their life together by giving them love and support constantly but what about you??? Spending all your time doing that while neglecting ur own duties at times.
8H placements = bonding over similar traumas and fighting for others even if it's not reciprocated
You feel their pain so you want to save them from themselves because that's actually what you'd like others to do for you - but people just take and take then disappear.
12H placements = sacrificing everything for others even if it's detrimental for you based on some weird moral ground
Sometimes, you have to do what's right for you and it's not being selfish, it's actually just normal - sacrificing everything all the time is self-sabotage.

Astrology observations pt.2
3rd house ruler in the 12th house could mean the native speaks more than one language
I hear a lot of astrologers say that mars is not associated with sexuality and sexual desires and instead Venus does. I’d like to debunk that because mars in modern astro rules the 8th house. The 8th house can be associated with things like intimacy, sex, the merging of two individuals, etc. The verdict is that mars does indeed relate to one’s sexuality or sexual drive. Remember, mars is the planet of action, drive, energy, etc. and sexual energy is energy that we all possess.
Saturn in the 5th have karma to with their children. If they don’t have any children in their life time then their here to finish any karma relating to their self expression, inner child, ego, or relationships.
Sun in the 12th house may have had mothers that played both parental roles in the natives lives. The father role and the mother role.
Sagittarius are super clumsy and forgetful
Whoever said Virgo placements are blunt was telling the truth
Sagittarius and Aquarius are seriously the best duo imo, they both value freedom so no wonder why Jupiter is super comfortable in Aquarius/11th house
The karma for Saturn in the 12th house individuals is escapism (daydreaming, dr*gs, alc, oversleeping, binge eating, and any form of escapism really!)
Mars in the 3rd/9th house are the types to get into fights in school. Or may have dealt with some type of physical abuse during their childhood
12th housers need to be extra careful with addictions. It’s super easy for us to get hooked onto something without even trying. We all need to be careful of how much time we focus on something because that thing can easily consume us. Social media for example.
Stelliums in Virgo or the 6th house are workaholics and can never take a break. They always feel like they have to be doing something. (You dont)
Imo, Venus in the 1st house does not always indicate the individual will be conventionally physically attractive. They may just have a specific feature on their face or bodies that is deemed as beautiful by society or a lot of the times they may come off as charming, elegant, or graceful but it doesn’t always indicate physical beauty because there are certain placements that can contradict that.

ASTROLOGY OBSERVATIONS PART TWO
Tumblr media
Pisces Moons are honestly one of my favorite placements. I swear to god it is like they are operating from a different dimension and it is so funny. Oftentimes, their honesty is what gets them into trouble rather than the things they keep hidden. They remind me of little kids in school who won’t stop blurting out things during class, like they just can’t help themselves. They are naive when it comes to practicality, but they have a sense of wisdom that is projected with ease at exactly the right moments. 
Mercury in Capricorn individuals are not a fan of gossip. I think that they are good at spotting misinformation, and they do not like it when people exaggerate stories. I’ve noticed that they communicate through action. Rather than saying, they simply just do. 
A lot of people look towards Cancers to find a sense of direction. People with prominent Cancer placements fall into leadership positions because other people push them into it rather than seeking it out. People with Cancer placements radiate a sense of ease and people are very drawn to that. 
People with Venus in the 12th house seemingly have resources that come out of nowhere.. Whether that is due to stealing or luck depends, but these types need to be careful because jail time is commonly seen with people who have 12th house placements. Trying to con and cheat may lead to some substantial gains, but it is soon followed by the lofty price of karma. 
People with their Sun in the 10th house should shoot for a career in reality television, I have noticed a ridiculous amount of reality tv stars with this placement. 
Pluto in the 9th house gives off cult leader vibes. 
People who have Neptune in the 4th house are unable to see their childhood for what it actually was. They tend to rely on an idealized version of what happened. I have noticed that some sort of hidden substance addiction within the family is often involved. 
Having a Moon in the 3rd house might mean being a mother figure to your siblings, or one of you siblings was a mother figure. 
People with Mercury in Cancer are great poets, especially when writing about topics that are usually hidden away and not discussed. Their voices are comforting. 
Those who have Mars in Leo get loud when angry, they are not afraid to roar and I’ve even heard some of them growl bahaha.

what’s out: pisces/12H placements have pretty feet
what’s in:
pisces/12H placements have ethereal beauty. their skin is often really supple and they have the best chances of acquiring healthy, dewy skin.
a lot of their features are soft, or are actually physically soft like soft hair, skin, etc.
they are good at acquiring what works best for them and are naturally good at figuring out their tastes and working with variety (pisces exalted in venus + sister sign virgo). no like seriously they go with what feels right to them and often get good results and a put-together appearance that feels natural to them.
because they’re so connected to what feels right (again, sister sign virgo does the same but with a different method), they often find the skincare or beauty routine that fits perfectly for them eventually. with 10/10 results ✨
on the extreme side, they are prone to oily/combination hair and sensitive skin that they have to balance (jupiter+neptune teacher/expansion ability) like i swear pisces/12H placements i know tend to go between extremes when it comes to health, like acne breakouts, their diet and intake, hair shedding, etc etc. they go through things that help them learn what’s best for them physically because they often don’t take notice until it smacks them in the face. or they suffer from poor self-confidence and esteem and have to learn from the ground up what’s best for them.
natives could have a naturally well-proportioned body with even distribution of fat. ik you see this observation with libra risings but literally libra AC’s 6H is ruled by pisces, and that house is the body, health, routine and work. pisces/12H placements just get that for free 😤💞
alluring, mysterious aura that is mainly composed of good mannerisms, posture, and striking features or striking eyes
rosy. look, i think 90% of my observations with pisces placements is that their skin fucking. glows or shines. they just have good blood circulation or smth idk it is so pretty to me. maybe that’s where the pretty feet stereotype comes from because their blood circulation is good LOL. they look radiant. they don’t need highlighters man their skin oil does that all by itself 😭
I think with 12H placements this will depend more on the sign and the planet rather than the house giving all these attributes, but the dewy skin look + alluring mannerisms is obvious with these people
owl eyes. they’re the people with the renowned ‘sanpaku’ eyes like i don’t get why neptune aspects get all these attributes but the actual sign it rules doesn’t. Or if we don’t label them with ‘sanpaku’, they just have really round eyes that again, have that soft gaze that can be really eye-catching. you know those makeup videos where they emphasise the eye wrinkles, double eyelids and eye fat and it makes them look doll-like? they have that naturally. i know.
OR, they have that heavy-lidded, hooded eye look. that’s where you hear the ‘dreamy’ gaze from.
ngl a lot of pisces/12H placements probably look like they came out from a dream but they’re also most appeared in the charts of serial killers and murderers. like sorry to get a bit dark but people assume they’re trustworthy and naturally alluring. that jupiter+neptune influence and charm (+ renowned ‘innocence’) is deadly idk why ppl sleep on this.

12th House Placements:
“How many of us now realize that space is the same thing as mind, or consciousness? That when you look out into infinity you are looking at yourself? That your inside goes with your entire outside as your front with your back? That this galaxy, and all other galaxies, are just as much you as your heart or your brain? That your coming and going, your waking and sleeping, your birth and your death, are exactly the same kind of rhythmic phenomena as the stars and their surrounding darkness? To be afraid of life is to be afraid of yourself.”
— Alan Watts, Whereabouts Unknown

how i found my documents using horary astrology: 📁📝
horary astrology is a branch of astrology where a chart is casted in the moment to answer any given question. here’s how i used horary to find my copyright registration papers !!
THE CHART:
"where is my copyright registration?"
Tumblr media
THE TWELFTH HOUSE (12H):
given that this is the house of lost and hidden items, this was the first place in the chart i looked. the moon is exactly conjunct the 12H cusp at 24° libra, telling me that my documents would be somewhere in my bedroom (☽)
the moon also governs white objects, so one of the places i planned to look was around my bookcase, which is painted white !!
THE 12H RULER:
since the 12H cusp is in the sign of libra, that means the 12H ruler is venus !! in this horary chart, venus is in the 9H at 18° leo — because venus is placed at the very top of the chart (near the midheaven), i knew that i'd have to look at the top shelf of my bookshelf, or perhaps on top of other tall pieces of furniture.
the 18th degree is also a virgo degree, which has much to do with scripture, written insights, note-keeping, etc. so i decided to search through my notebooks, just in case i left my documents in one of them.
venus is also right next to mars in this chart, so i originally thought that i should look through my red notebooks, but i didn't find anything. but after going through one particular notebook with an aries sticker on it, i finally found my copyright registration in one of its folders !!
(notice how there’s also a star sticker here while venus and mars are both in leo, the sign of stars)
Tumblr media
book a reading !!

question for 12th housers (or anyone in general tbh! just clarify it plz :3)
(even if u dont have 12th house placements, any reposts r greatly appreciated so i can get some feedback on this!!)
for anyone with 12th house planets (or others (if so, please include this and maybe some placements that you connect to / you feel contributes to these experiences):
-have you had psychic/ paranormal experiences?
-have you ever had out of body experiences or extra sensory perception?
-do you feel more connected to the Realm of Spirit? Or this reality?
I'm curious as to what people say! I have my sun, mercury, venus, north node, and lilth in the 12th along with a pisces moon and neptune dominance!
sometimes the veil just feels so thin and im wondering about people who have had similar experiences? ive been getting into spirit work recently and i feel more connected to that reality than this one sometimes. communication is getting clearer and sometimes its a shock to my system.
hearing about similar experiences is very comforting and fascinating to me!
thank u! love crisp :)

☽ The Lunar Path of Emotions and Deception ☾
A short commentary and analysis on the dangers of ignoring our inner world.✧☾゜・。
Tumblr media
Yesterday the moon was in Hasta nakshatra, the midpoint of the moon in Vedic Astrology. I decided to prepare before hand and study in depth about this sign as I decided to do a small spell in honor of one of my spirit guides, drenching myself in the lunar energies this nakshatra has to offer. However, in the process of doing so, I found that this opened my eyes to the negative sides the moon can have in our society and on ourselves, specially if we are students of the occult. I’ve noticed that, while this warnings are something every practitioner of magical or divinatory arts have always been taught of, we tend to sometimes forget this teachings the more we grow spiritually, corrupting our practice and leading us to delusion. This post is meant to work as a small commentary and an open discussion of the knowledge I’ve gathered, however, I encourage anyone who would like to give insights on this topic, so we can all protect and grow together.
Tumblr media
Many religions and spiritual practices mention the importance of emotions as guides to both our inner and outer world, however, I first came to learn this teaching in a workshop on The Science of Acting, where my teacher through a methodology mixing psychology, Buddhism and theater showed us how, even if you’re not related to the arts, emotions and thoughts are singlehandedly the most important aspects in our experience as human beings. They define how we see the world, how we navigate through it and learn from it.
She also taught us the importance of meditation, for this was one of the most effective ways we are able to gain control over our minds, and therefore, our emotions. Before doing this, she describes we function as a car driving in autopilot, or a videogame character being controlled by someone else. This is because our inner world are our allies and friends, but require strong will and direction to function correctly, so, if they are not directed, they are the ones that take control completely. It’s this same control our emotions and thoughts take of ourselves that leads to a sense of instability, making us believe that certain emotions are bad for not being able to control them, when in reality they are just trying to show us parts of ourselves that need attention (anger being a defensive mechanism, envy showing an insecurity of ourselves we need to overcome, sadness telling us of past wounds we need to heal and let go of, etc.).
In the worst case scenario, this same lack of self-control sometimes leads to false ideas as “right and wrong” and “us against them” mentalities that mark the seed of the most dangerous ideologies the world has given birth to, and in the world of spirituality, to complete madness. Therefore, we must remember that our own senses and emotions work as tools for us to experience this reality and, as any type of tools, if you don’t learn how to utilize them or completely ignore them, they become rusty and difficult to use, sabotaging our progress.
This is especially dangerous in our modern world, when we are constantly stimulated and consumed by technology and social media, to the point in which it has become the norm to drown in them as a way to suppress or completely ignore our feelings. This is why it’s common while scrolling through Instagram or Tik Tok to find the occasional guy joking about “using every type of technology at the same time to impede any type of thought to appear”. As spiritual adepts, this type of numbing of the senses is very dangerous, for our emotions and thoughts serve as our guide while practicing any type of magical or divinatory pursuit, and, if left unchecked, they distort themselves and start showing us lies instead of divine truths. It’s in this way we take the risk of communicating lies while giving someone a tarot reading, perceiving false signs or “hearing” words without meaning in a séance, or believing we are cursed when in reality it’s just our mind making us paranoid at our own inability to accept certain faults in ourselves.
This is also why in the Tarot and in Astrology, The Moon signifies the mind, the unconscious, and our emotions, as well as lies, manipulation and any type of deception. At the same time, The 12th House in astrology, while ruling dreams, the astral, and overall spirituality, also rules energy loss, asylums and entrapment into one’s own distorted mind, correlating on how mental illness and madness are one of the possible outcomes of an individual losing control of its own mind while practicing spirituality. All this correlates to how in psychology, specially in Carl Jung’s theories, the more we don’t acknowledge, integrate and control our own mind, the stronger the hold it has on us, constantly telling us lies about the world and ourselves.
Tumblr media
The mind and the unconscious, as the constant changing moon, are very susceptible and malleable to any kind of stimulation. We can specially see this with the discoveries on the placebo effect and, most recently, the rise on affirmations related to the law of attraction, where it’s shown how the mind is especially powerful if influenced by certain thoughts and stimuli long enough to either manifest something to reality or change your worldview, even if the conscious part of the psyche disregards this type of stimulation at first.
So, if our own mind and emotions are very flexible and everchanging in nature, it’s not so crazy to say that with that same lightness and flow it can distort and show us lies if left unchecked. This is why moon ruled nakshatras, while being the most prevalent in the occult world as the most powerful or influential practitioners of magic and divination, are also the main people to be called “charlatans”, for a lot of them choose the path of deception and crime instead of one based on enlightenment. And even then, in actuality most of the revered “masters” of magic and occultism are hated because, while at first actually being able to channel divine truths and communicate said truths to the masses, they ended up corrupting their knowledge and teachings with their ego, destroying their past wisdom by tainting it with falsehoods (which is why most of them have been exposed for being racist, antisemitic and misogynistic).
However, as mentioned before, this type of delusion is not exclusive to the occult practitioner, but also to the everyday man, affecting all areas of expertise. One famous example of this is Tim Burton with Rohini ASC (the birth of the moon among the nakshatras), who at the first years of his career was considered a genius who would revolutionize the film industry, as he channeled a few of his stories truthfully creating beautiful whimsical worlds that embrace emotion by creating scenery with the objective of making them seem like a living dream (his moon rulership). However, as he grew in fame, the public started to slowly realize how his stories started to become corrupt by his closed ideology and lack of control of his inner world, criticizing his films for only creating crazy characters with the sole purpose of being “not like other people”, lacking real substance and clarity.
Tumblr media
This creates the question; how do we avoid this? How do we get to receive divine truths and not get deceived by lunar delusion?
The answer is, as said in the beginning, by connecting and acknowledging our own emotions and thoughts; to look them right in the face without judgement, accepting them and, most importantly, allowing ourselves to feel them. The mind, emotions, and unconscious (as our inner moon) need to be grounded first and cleared from darkness to be able to deliver spiritual knowledge or basic clarity. This is why the moon is said to once being one with earth, and now that they are separated, only shines thanks to the rays of the sun: without earthly grounding or solar direction, the moon completely loses herself in illusions. Whether this is done through meditation, therapy or any other type of spiritual practice would depend on the individual, but connection and direction is the key to clarity.
The next time you get to feel jealous of someone else’s success or appearance, ask yourself: why those emotions appear before you? What do they show about your inner world and past wounds? Or the next time someone angers you by showing a complete different political view than the one you possess, ask yourself: why does this anger me? Is it because their views don’t align with my version of right and wrong? Or it’s my ego wanting validation by trying to control someone else’s path?
As triggering as this acknowledgment may be to some, it’s necessary to be able to reach a higher state of spiritual mastery and overall mental peace, by training the mind to not waste excess energy in draining pursuits and to differentiate between truth and illusion. If you actually practice checking on your mind daily (as difficult as it may be) you’ll start to realize that certain emotions, whether “negative” or “positive”, will come up only at times when they need to show a part of yourself that you need to pay attention to. This level of awareness leads the path of mental clarity and heightened intuition, for if you get to know your own mind and emotions and the way they communicate in your internal world, you’ll get to realize that the practice of magic, divination, and connection with the divine suddenly seems to flow naturally, instead of being clouded by fogs of delusion.
Tumblr media
This article compared to the last one was a bit improvised, for it was birthed through late existential talks with my friends and nights of deep thinking after watching videos related to the topic (lol) so I apologize if my point it’s not as clear as I would’ve wanted it to be, but I did my best. However I got to give credit to the articles and videos made by Claire Nakti, her teachings keep enlightening me and inspiring me to pursue knowledge in a whole new way.
To learn more about the moon and it’s effects in our modern world I recommend the next videos and articles, for she expands on this on a more profound way.

Hello, do you have astrology tips for truly figuring out who you are? I have a 12th house moon and no planets in 1st house and I just feel like I struggle to know who I am for sure
There's a lot that could be happening within your natal chart, anon. I believe that our natal charts show where we might be inclined to go, but it doesn't mean that we're destined to stick to one path. Let's use the 9th house as an example. If someone has a stellium here, that person could be a professor/teacher, be deeply interested in religion or spirituality, love learning new languages (or teach them), and maybe even start a travel blog/vlog channel. There are lots of different paths to take. This also depends on which planets are connected in your chart, what house they're in, and even what degrees.
With a 12th house Moon, you might struggle with showing your emotions to others and be highly sensitive, but with the Moon being Cancer's ruler, this is a very intuitive energy. Because the 12th house represents spirituality, and with you having the Moon placed there, you could be highly intuitive or connected to the spiritual realm. You could even have psychic gifts you're unaware of (or maybe, on some level, you are aware). The 12th house is the house of Pisces, the zodiac sign that deals with dreams, compassion, and intuition. It's actually not a bad placement, anon. You could end up being someone who helps others, including animals. Do you enjoy being around water? Are you creative, or, at least, have dreams of being creative?
If you're into it, I'd ask the Universe/Source/your spirit guides to show you signs about which direction to go or what you should be doing. This could come in the form of dreams, or signs and synchronicities in the 3D. But with your deep intuition, I think if you really tap in, you'll receive the answers you're searching for. 💖

Your 12H is also about what you're scared could make you fail in life tbh so you're avoiding doing it somehow (to your detriment).
ex: Gemini? scared of stagnancy and not having enough time so they never rest (Taurus 12H) but then they exhaust themselves lol bitch, take a nap it's ok.
Aries? Scared of getting lost in their dreams and that their emotions could prevent them from being their best self/people would use it against them so they're trying to act strong all the time (Pisces 12H).
Taurus? Scared of being seen as too bold and insolent for asking for what they want from life so they try to act unbothered when things don't go their way so no scandal happens somehow (Aries 12H).
Cancer? Scared of being seen as inconsistent and acting like changing their mind about something means they were never serious about it in the first place + disappointing themselves and others in the process (Gemini 12H).
Leo? Scared of being seen as too sensitive and fragile so others don't take seriously enough, don't let them do their own things; acting like they don't need to be protected and babied sometimes when it's actually just normal (Cancer 12H).
Virgo? Scared of being seen as too much and somehow selfish for wanting to do their own things/putting work into their projects so they're trying to help others in order to balance that fear; scared of success and the potentiality of failure leading to self-sabotage (Leo 12H).
Libra? Scared of being seen as too obsessed with what they want to accomplish and accused of not treating everyone and everything equally if they show any kind of preference so they have now to say yes to everything others are asking them to do to counter that (Virgo 12H).
Scorpio? Scared of others seeing how much they actually care about others generally speaking so people could use their loved ones to manipulate or hurt them and now they have to act as being alone isn't an issue for them to protect what/who they cherish (Libra 12H).
Sagittarius? Scared of how they could react when crossed and of how much things actually impact them on a deeper level so they're trying to act unbothered and like they know everything has a purpose when it's eating them alive at times (Scorpio 12H).
Capricorn? Scared that they won't ever be knowledgeable enough to master what they need to, of actually never experiencing enough in this life and regretting it but at the same time spending too much time working to even enjoy (Sagittarius 12H).
Aquarius? Scared of being not serious enough to be able to achieve their goals because it means people won't respect them, their work and their possible legacy while at the same time claiming to despise any form of recognition from major institutions/people (Capricorn 12H).
Pisces? Scared of never actually fitting in while being attached to their uniqueness but not knowing how to express it in a way that won't make others reject them for being different which leads to them hiding some parts of themselves, claiming to be misunderstood (Aquarius 12H).

URANUS IN THE 12th HOUSE; Observations
Tumblr media
It is hard to deal with any planet placed within the twelfth house, but Uranus brings about an unpredictable energy that is especially difficult to manage. Their lives may be marked with sudden disasters and unforeseen tragedy. These natives don’t have a fond attitude towards surprises and tend to be accident-prone. People who have this placement may feel as if they are aliens, their perception of the world is often misunderstood. Their unique personality may not have been fully accepted or embraced during their younger years. Their unconventional attitude may not have been appreciated by parents and they might have been viewed as defiant and unruly. Rather than rejecting the aspects of their personality that bring about judgment from others, they lean into them fully. They are constantly being challenged to stay true to themselves, and often pass the test. At first glance, people would not expect those with this placement to be as rebellious as they are. They rebel in quiet, they do it to gain a sense of freedom rather than attention. These types have no desire for recognition, they are incredibly authentic. Even when partaking in great generosity, they would prefer to remain anonymous. During their younger years, other people may have found those with this placement to be awkward and distant. However once developed, their awkwardness is perceived as quirkiness and their distant attitude intrigues others. Those with this placement have a heightened sense of originality and because of this they have many innovative ideas. It is important for them to surround themselves with other creative individuals, this will help them feel safer when expressing their ideas. People who have Uranus in the twelfth house feel a total sense of freedom during isolation. Their sense of creativity is heightened during these periods, and they often achieve their greatest accomplishments alone. These natives struggle with regulating their sleep cycle and experience many strange dreams, some of their best ideas can be found within such dreams. They can see beyond reality and have a special connection with the unknown. Some can even see into the future. Those with this placement experience many crazy coincidences and occurrences. I’ve noticed that a lot of people with Uranus in the twelfth house have witnessed many paranormal encounters. This pushes them to believe that there is something more than meets the eye when encountering the everyday. These types embrace the impossible and move past any physical restrictions to make their greatest wishes come true. They know what it takes to bring about progessive change. Social causes and injustices are important to these individuals. They want to make the world a better place, but sometimes struggle with knowing where to start in terms of personal action. Despite this, other people still view them as liberators and curse breakers. Uranus twelfth housers crave personal freedom, and want to bestow this upon others.

hi! do you know how to find the genre of music you most like making using horary astrology?
hey love !! while this can totally be found with horary astrology, i’d definitely recommend that you look more into your natal chart and your venus persona chart
venus is the planet of music, harmony, and bliss — wherever venus is in your natal chart will give you a great amount of insight on what music you’ll enjoy making the most !!
here are a few examples:
venus in the 12H: they enjoy making music that has a somewhat erratic or underground quality. they also have an attachment to music that discusses topics like loneliness, separation, sadness, or feeling lost (12H)
venus in leo: they enjoy making music about flirting, sex, romance, glamour, and love. leo is the sign of joy and warmth, so leo venuses have a natural talent for making “songs of the summer”
venus in taurus: venus at home here makes for incredibly well-rounded and elegant vocalists. their music often revolves around food or drink, stability, recreational activity, the search of pleasure, and material satisfaction
venus in ardra nakshatra: as ardra is represented by the teardrop, these people find a lot of healing in making music they can cry to (whether in a positive or negative way). also great for anyone who wants to make music with rain or thunderstorm sounds
you can also find your venus persona chart here on astro-seek.com !! since venus is the embodiment of music, looking at this persona chart can help you fine-tune the type of music you’re looking to create :)
