the femininity of shani (what we can learn from pushya) 🌷
🌷 monica bellucci: pushya chandra
🌫️ The mystical tundra of Shani is often overlooked by its restricting feminine complexity and misconstrued for the nature of Buddha (the tantalizing serpent of Ashlesha). While their indirect submissive natures are similar in comparison, it is often natives of Mercury who use this explicit behavioral pattern for more materialistic, perhaps conniving, matters at hand. In this exploration of Shani’s ancient connection to divine femininity, I want to purposefully disclose that their submissive, seemingly “neutral” expressions are not the same. Buddha is the snake of binding to the collective for the intent of freedom and entangling or ensnaring their victim for the purpose of disempowering. Shani is the snake of binding to the contemporary nature of society for the intent of cooling the darkness of ego and empowering the higher collective. Buddha bestows the intelligence of the material aspects of the subversion into the intellect of worldly matters. However, Shani is the intelligence of the occult undertones which control the very essence of the material plane and the union of what is to come after we conquer the very shadows of the tenth house (the rashi of capricorn who will be the awakening of the realm, once we are released from Kali Yuga) to the hidden truths of the eleventh house, the supposed house of personal ties and fulfillment.

☔️ There is a specific air of mystery around Shani and the graha’s corresponding nakshatras, bhavas and rashis. Much of the information provided is rather repetitively regurgitated from varying sources and of surface nature. My goal with this exploration is not to specifically delve in the expressional aspects of Shani, but to focus on the graha’s distinct involvement in the path of divine femininity. My hope is this exploration will awaken the serpent of knowledge within you, to explore the more niche archetypes within the vata umbrella that is Saturn.
🌷 miranda kerr: pushya lagna
⛩️ Vata dosha is most synonymous with cold, bereaved individuals who search this earthly plane longing for sustenance. It is the cold hands that seek to grasp the tangibility of spiritual words, it is the homeless widow who was once filled with wanderlust now bereaved, it is the drowsy feeling that surmounts when you look upon the rain beating down on your window pane. It is the dosha characteristic of the feelings we most disdain and wish to shy away from and simultaneously the realm of Shani, Chandra, and Rahu. We have heard the tales of the greedy, insatiable spirit of Rahu; the forgetful, lusting of Chandra; and the forever dried and cold spirit of Shani. Having repeatedly heard the rhetoric of these respective deities, a certain air of weariness has surrounded them respectfully. But you must continue to remind yourself of the necessity of attaining equilibrium and leaning into each graha’s meanings, teachings, and significances. If you are dominant in either of these vata grahas, know that you are more than the sterile or greedy archetype that has been placed upon you, as Kali (Shani) was equally as ferocious as she was creationist, Chhinnamasta (Rahu) was equally as violent as she was self-sacrificing, and Bhuvaneshvari (Chandra) is equally as intimidating as she is the supreme being of the earth, atmosphere, and heavens.

🩸 In a similar fashion, the ethereal air of vata is equally as destructive as it is light, cool and dry. It governs all movement and processes in your mind and body (such as blood flow, breathing, and the coagulation of thoughts in your mind). This rulership of movement is why Shani is so astute and articulate within the realm of femininity. Shani is able to manipulate the vata element to attract and constrict around those we long to unite with. These elements of constriction are often associated with Ashlesha/Buddha, but significantly vary from each other.
🌷 gisele bundchen: pushya surya
🐍 Think of the Pushya nakshatra, the “Kula” star, resembling the flower of the snake gourd. Similar to Ashlesha, Pushya is also associated with serpentine movement. It is the maternal snake before it enters the stage of selfishness. It is focused on laying its cosmological eggs, whereas Ashlesha is the mother after this stage that abandons the cosmic eggs of Brihaspati (carefully crafted in Punarvasu) to never return or protect her young again. Ashlesha is leering into the gandanta knot spirituality of disempowering the collective, coiling up to rest in preparation for the spiritual shedding that awaits in Magha. Pushya is leering into the birthing of the collective itself. With the knowledge of vata dosha, Pushya is able to tap into previous experiences of destruction and coldness to relate to others. Using those previous experiences to further divulge into the mystified unknown that often longs to be hidden.

💒 This is why the cancer rashi is essential for developing cosmic energy and harnessing/wielding it. The cancer rashi is ruled by Chandra, of which is correlated to the Kamala Mahavidya (the vata being whose symbolism is comparable to that of Aphrodite or the Christian Mary). The primary “devastating” nature of vata is what sprouts fertility and purity, as the dirtiest mud will produce the freshest lotus. It is recommended in order to celebrate her, devotees engage in eating spicy, hot foods, as they ignite passion. These spices may include cinnamon, garlic, saffron, or chili peppers due to heavily spiced foods having the ability to bear this Mahavidya’s luscious energy. These same foods are associated with the vata Shani, in a similar fashion, Shani and Chandra are considered enemies but respectfully hold the cosmic keys to one another through the likes of Pushya and Shravana. The metaphor for the consumption of extreme vata spices that one earns the ability to celebrate and veneer the Mahavidya in her idealistic form is comparable to the narrative of sacrifice one must engage in to witness beauty (spiritually and physically). Aphrodite was offered sacrificial doves (bird’s being Shani’s primary vahana: vehicle) and smoky incense (smoke being ether in nature which is of vata dosha) in an attempt to receive love, fertility, and union. Whereas, the Virgin Mary was deemed pure due to her great sacrifice when she offered up the life of her Divine Son Jesus using her “Immaculate Heart” (similar to Kamala’s abundance in the anahata/heart chakra). In “A Prayer of Praise to the Blessed Virgin Mary” by St. Ephrem, he sang: “….Thou indeed art our only hope, most sure and sacred in God's sight, to whom be honor and glory, majesty and dominion, for ever and ever, world without end. Amen.”. Similar to Kamala, Aphrodite, and the Virgin Mary, so too must the masses work to earn the right to witness Shani’s femininity due to its premiere selectivity. This is why Pushya births the highest grossing models and revolutionary actresses in history [e.g. Halle Berry, Twiggy, Marlene Dietrich, Selena Gomez (who is now the most followed woman on Instagram) etc.], as the masses find pleasure in working to witness the mysticism vata bestows.

🍷 This mysticism is often deemed “odd”, “exotic” or “unique” and this is exactly where we can learn from the Mahavidya Kali. The darkened Mahavidya Kali breaks conventional stereotypes of feminine beauty and sexuality in Hindu goddess mythology. She serves as the dominant sexual partner straddling the prone Shiva (the master of poison and medicine, the great yogi, overlord of time, the cosmic dancer) and the wild warrior goddess drinking demon blood. She is originally depicted as a symbol of uncontrolled fury emerging from the fair, beautiful goddess Ambika (goddess of supreme power, energy and invincibility), in the battle with the demons in older Vedic texts. Thereafter, she gains independent existence both as the dark, mysterious and sexually demanding version of the more benign and auspicious Parvati and the primordial goddess power pre-dating the Hindu trinity of male gods, the Universal Mother Force which embraces both good and evil, gods and demons in the Kalika Purana. Unlike other texts which emphasize Kali's role in the battle against the demons, the Kalika Purana's focus is on her sexuality and her darkly sensual beauty. Equally it is on the heterodoxical rituals associated with her worship involving blood and flesh offerings, wine and the use of sexual intercourse as opposed to Vedic rituals.
🌷 dakota fanning: pushya chandra
❤️🔥 In Kalika Purana, Daksha’s daughter Sati, born fair, assumes the fearful visage of Kali and the other Mahavidyas to terrify Shiva into submission. At Daksha’s yagna, her father attributes her dark color to constant proximity to the wild-mendicant Shiva, causing her to give up her life in sorrow and humiliation. In the second portion of the Purana, she takes the dark and beautiful form of Parvati, similar to the appearance of a blue lotus. She was born to serve the gods’ purpose of luring into domesticity the stern, austere hermit-like Shiva to preserve the cosmic cycles of creation, preservation and destruction. It is only later, piqued and jealous of Shiva’s propensity towards fair-skinned goddesses that she emerges from her kosa (sheath) of darkness to become the golden-hued Gauri. Yet her darkly alluring and compelling sexuality is highlighted in the text as opposed to the prototype of a domesticated wife and mother like Candi in the Candi Mangal Kavya. John Stratton Hawley in his Prologue to “Devi: Goddesses of India”, noted that Kali in a strange way mediates between the transcendent goddess, the generic Devi who has supremacy over all forms of life and the consort goddesses like Lakshmi and Radha. Hawley wrote: “On the one hand, Kali unquestionably manifests herself as supreme—whether as a mother demanding submission or as an uncanny, uncontrollable force—but on the other hand, her supremacy is paradigmatically measured by the power she exerts over her consort the great god Shiva”. He detailed an example of her sexual dominance, the iconic representation of Kali dancing wildly on the prone, ithyphallic corpse of her husband Shiva. The Kalika Purana initially projects her as the manifestation of the universality of divine femininity, Mahamaya, who is Visnumaya and Rudrani consort of both Visnu and Rudra (Shiva). She is Savitri, Saraswati, through the power of her maya (illusion), incomprehensible to all who are ensnared in her power of illusion. She is Visnu’s Yoganidra, his state of cosmic sleep or stasis. She is Yogamaya/Mahamaya, who ensnares the cosmos in her web of illusion, she is Mahamoha, the fatal enchantress and the Supreme Trinity itself is not immune to her mysterious lure. Another goddess text, the Sri Lalita Sahasranama calls her Mahabhoga and Bhogini implying her rajasik-rupa (dynamism, also material grandeur) of being steeped in worldly luxuries. Yet she is the path to mukti (salvation) for beings trapped in the worldly and materialistic which is all part of her cosmic illusion. The Sri Lalita Sahasranama also states that she is Mohanasini, destroying the moha (bondage) of her devotees and Pasu-pasa-vimocini, releasing them from the inferior, coarser earthly bonds. She is Vidya (knowledge) for the householder who desires mukti (salvation), and Avidya (ignorance) who binds the universe in bonds of material desire. She is the primeval Demi-Urge, the Adyasakti that activates the inert maleness of Shiva into the dynamism of the Shiva-Sakti or Purusa-Prakrti union for without Sakti, Shiva is but a sava (corpse). Among the Sakta devotees it is Kali amongst the many manifestations of the divine feminine who is recognized as the Adya-murti, the original goddess manifestation. In the text, Kali alone can awaken the virility within Shiva, for on the one hand, she is a yogin to participate in his yoga and on the other, it is her eroticism, wild and uncontrolled, which is the perfect counterpart to his dominant sexual urges.
🌷 marlene dietrich: pushya chandra
🦶 Kali is feared in Hindu mythology as the negative stereotype in goddess cults and paradoxically revered as the Universal Mother. In a similar fashion, Pushya natives serve as the nourishing udder they are symbolized as, flowing with the golden knowledge of Brihaspati; yet their propensity for awakening occult knowledge and powers within their partners is hidden within the little knowledge the public has on this nakshatra. Kali’s iconic delineation, girded and garlanded with skulls and limbs while her hand is raised in the abhayamudra (gesture of reassurance from fear) indicates both chastisement and benediction. As a dark, complex, mysterious and alluring figure, she breaks conventional stereotypes of feminine beauty and sexuality, combining the beautiful with the fearful. Thus, explaining Pushya’s propensity for both embodying and challenging feminine stereotypes in the media (such as Paris Hilton’s hyperfemininity, Marlene Dietrich’s well-known portrayal for characters challenging the submissive standard of the 1900s, Halle Berry’s intimidatingly complex “Storm” character). In a traditionally patriarchal society and an androcentric religious order, Kali emerges as a rebel; dominant in marital and sexual relationships, ferocious, and bloodthirsty on the battlefield. Existing on the fringes of the dharmic value system and Vedic ritualism, the Kali-centric myths teeter dangerously on the extreme peripheries of social and moral acceptability in the iconic projection of her black nudity, voluptuous breasts, bloodstained, her foot on the prostrated corpse-like body of her consort Shive, and the sacrificial blood and flesh rituals associated with her worship.
🌷 angelina jolie: pushya lagna (note her films are wonderful examples of the nature of Pushya, from her Maleficent character’s sheep-like creature (the yoni of Pushya) to her dominatrix role, symbolizing the dark sexual subcultures of Shani in B*SM)
🍒 Kali conveys maya as seen from the “other shore”. She illustrates what the world of appearance looks like to the one who has seen beyond her overall presence (which is described as frightening) and her dwelling place lying within the cremation ground mocks the ultimate significance of a world grounded in the ego. In her “mad dancing, dishevelled hair and eerie howl, there is made present the hint of a world reeling, careening, out of control”. In conclusion, Kali, in integrating absolute binaries of the terrifying and the beautiful, the compassionate Mother and the blood-thirsty demon destroyer, the consort of Shiva and the sexually dominant partner draws a more comprehensive image of non-duality that is beyond the reductivist social and religious definitions of what is acceptable or what is heterodox. So too Pushyas embody life as it is in all its wild and abundant complexity, not as it is selectively made out to be within social and religious peripheries. They embody divine femininity in all its complexity; serving as the slivering synthesis of both the auspicious and benign goddesses, the wild, and uncontrolled. Like the Adyasakti, the primeval cosmic force, they represent both the good and the evil, the godly and the demonic of which the cosmos is composed, all of which arise from the intersection of the nakshatras in cancer rashi (as detailed above).
👄 It is important to note that the dominant female sexuality, the prolonging of intercourse in the Shiva-Shakti union, is not an exercise of power associated with the sexually dominant partner. Its ultimate purpose is the awakening of the dormant kundalini shakti (vital energy), which rises up the spine through the various chakras within us to culminate in the sahasrara (the thousand-petalled lotus) on the top of the head, the psycho-spiritual center. It envisages the path from pravritti (intense activity) to nivritti (cessation of desire) in this act of sacred sex. It defines a path of realization through indulgence without bondage (associated with Shani) to the senses (that of rahu/chandra), rather than through deprivation and denial of the sensory experiences. The myths and the cults of worship associated with Kali therefore strip life of its absolutes to envisage a more comprehensive and all-inclusive vision.
* all of these placements were found using astrotheme/.com and/or astro-charts/.com. it is important to note that some chandra (moon) placements may be off by up to 6 degrees and lagnas (ascendants/rising signs) as well, due to the fact that many websites do not have 100% accurate birth times for the given celebrities.

signal boost!!! celebrate women’s history month by donating to a Black mother in California!!!
https://gofund.me/a1999417
“Help a young, Black single mother and community activist afford a natural at-home birth. In America, giving birth can be traumatizing or life risking for Black women. Medical “professionals” often disregard the concerns of Black women due to misogynoir rooted deep in our society. She is a prominent activist working every day to fight against racism and injustice in her community. During this time, she has experienced police terror first hand, and was arrested over THREE TIMES on unlawful charges and forced to pay expensive legal fees. The father of her child, who both physically and mentally abused her, is absent for her, and the child’s safety. She deserves to feel safe, heard and cared for during her labor procedure, and to not be subjected to medical racism or expensive hospital fees.
Funds raised will be used to cover the cost of at-home birthing procedures. Thank you for your support and love!”
this woman has done so much for my hometown community with tireless protests against the local PD and mutual aid organizing–– in one of the most racist communities in northern California! i know the good people of tumblr can spread the word (-:

astrology life hacks
-becomes friends with people who have planets in your 12th or 8th house, they’ll be able to teach you things about yourself and life you’d never be able to see. especially the 12th house as this is the house of the unseen, the vast cosmos, and ones own undoing
-find pluto in your chart. whatever house pluto resides in is the area of life you can receive most money from. ex: pluto in the 11th would suggest one might receive money from friends or their community
-learn about your North Node! please! your North Node is what you should try to embody in this incarnation of life to feel fulfilled and to grow. your South Node represents the way you were unbalanced in your last past life. if you live out your life from your south node you likely won’t be treated kindly or be wholly fulfilled. learning about the Nodes is a game changer
-if your planets fall into another persons 7th house they’ll probably love you, hard. they might also be a tad difficult to ever get away from haha. remember though, the 7th house also rules enemies. love and hate both share passion
-make connections to people who have the same moon sign as you. you’ll have a natural understanding of one another and being around them brings a silent sense of sweet comfort
-at work, find out the sun sign of your boss. work is usually an ego driven environment so the sun sign is easily expressed there. knowing their sun sign will help you understand the best way to approach them in most any situation

Asteroids have a rol in synastry as well as in the birth chart?
Absolutely.
Look for conjunctions & aspects between the asteroids. Also aspects to Sun / Moon / Ascendant.
Pysche [16], Amor [1221], Cupido [763], Eros [433], Iris [7]; (I read this on Lindaland), indicates soul mate connections.
(Not an asteroid) but the Vertex is VERY significant between partners. I read an article online about this ages ago about Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie. - Even though Brad had many positive aspects with Jennifer Aniston, he had a Vertex conjunction with Angelina; his vertex conj. her anti-vertex & her vertex conj. his anti-vertex.

studying astrology has brought me infinite source of self-awareness and self-acceptance of my nuances, faults, quirks, and strengths. it has taught me it’s okay to be complex and it’s okay to contradict myself-- because of that, i am closer to the universe as i reflect her woes and triumphs.

What kind of stuff in a person's chart indicates talent in singer or just music in general?
I did quite a bit of research on this… One of my favorite topics, astrology and music. Both are gifts to our world. Both are languages to help us understand energy and what energy feels like.
The entire chart plays a significant role in someone’s ability in singing and music so I will try my best to illustrate everything as I hate leaving information out.
The information I’ve collected is from other astrologer’s opinions and charts of different types of musicians I’ve looked into.
I’ll start with the houses that have importance to this ability, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th house.
The 1st house, I believe for the most part, dictates the style in which a musician goes for. So why would the 1st house play a role in the style of music a person goes for? Well, the ascendant is pretty much our doorway between the inner and the outer; how we present the inner to the outer. Our style would come from the 1st house directly.Take a look at someone like Björk (Icelandic singer) and her chart. She’s got her 1st house starting in Scorpio. If you listen to her music, the style is very Scorpio inspired; it’s strange, penetrating, and unconventional. She has no problem expressing the energy a Scorpio represents in her music.Now lets take another singer with a different ascendant, perhaps someone like Freddie Mercury from Queen or Robert Smith from The Cure; their ascendant is in Leo. Their sound is in no doubt very different from each other, but they seem to fit in that category of the dramatic Leo. Almost all of Robert Smith’s songs express the loving lion a Leo represents, its essence is of what Leo/5th house expresses. Then if you look at Freddie Mercury’s music, it is dramatic and theatrical like the Leo.So looking at all the different ascendants, a person’s musical style (disregarding the rest of their chart) may be whatever energy that sign represents. An Aries maybe angry and raw and a Pisces may be hippie and psychedelically inspired. Maybe… This is my opinion on it, subject to change though.I wouldn’t mind hearing other people’s opinion on the ascendant and how it demonstrates a person’s style in music. To get your minds thinking, here’s a random range of artists and their ascendant…Rihanna - AriesJohn Lennon - AriesMariah Carey - TaurusLana Del Rey - TaurusLady Gaga - GeminiBilly Idol - GeminiTchaikovsky - CancerAnnie Lennox - VirgoKurt Kobain - VirgoBeyonce - LibraJared Leto - LibraLudwig Van Beethoven - ScorpioAretha Franklin - ScorpioPrince - ScorpioElvis - SagittariusKesha - SagittariusBarry White - CapricornTom Jones - CapricornAriana Grande - CapricornTaylor Swift - CapricornAdele - AquariusNicki Minaj - AquariusDavid Bowie - Aquarius Michael Jackson - Pisces
One last note before I move onto the 2nd house; I also noticed that almost all of my favourite singers had their ascendant in Leo which is funny because my ascendant is in Leo… We pick music that best suit our style. What are your favourite artist’s ascendants and can you relate to them?
The 2nd house rules the throat. The condition of the throat itself will impact the sound of someone’s voice. Having many beneficial planets in the 2nd house would be good for a singer, some singers even have stelliums in the 2nd house. I know some other people made some really good posts about the 2nd house and its affect on voice so I won’t go too deep into the 2nd house and what planets do what to your voice. To sum up the affects of planets in the 2nd house, it’s pretty much what you would assume; Mars in the 2nd house would give a powerful or even masculine voice whereas Venus in the 2nd house would give a soft and feminine voice. So think of the planet and what it represents to know what it does to a person’s voice. I do however want to however talk about whatever sign is cusping the 2nd house and its impact on a person’s voice.Lets talk about the elements itself; what might a fire voice sound like? a water voice? an earth voice? an air voice? I’ve been trying to put my finger on this exactly, semi-stumped still; don’t really know how to put it to words.I do know for sure the air voice. These are people who have an unafflicted 2nd house in an air sign. Their voices have the potential of singing at operatic levels. Their voices are light, high note reaching, and quite literally I would describe them as airy. Just a few examples of people with an air sign as their second house; Joan Sutherland - Gemini (opera singer), Annie Lennox - Libra, Ariana Grande - Aquarius, and Mariah Carey - Gemini.For the fire voice, this was difficult to put to words. They seem to put a lot of emphasis on the words and sounds they make. Some of them even sound like they are straining their voice or really pushing the sounds that they make. Their voices can be strange, raw, or even penetrating. Some examples of fire voices; Robert Smith from the Cure - Leo (he also has Pluto in the 2nd house) and again Bjork - Sagittarius (she has quite a few planets in the 2nd house including Mars, Venus, and Mercury). For an actual example to listen to as I am bad at explaining things, here’s Robert and here’s Bjork. Adele also has her second house in a fire sign, Aries. She is influenced quite a bit by other parts in her chart, but she definitely has the crackly fire in her voice. For the earth voice, I think is grounding yet dynamic because each of the earth signs are very different from each other in my opinion. Freddie Mercury for example has his second house in Virgo which is the essence of dynamic earth (ignoring the fact that he has many planets that are in the second house in Libra). It’s almost as if Virgo is also influenced by air because it is so mutable and changeable. The earth voice is usually light and pure. It’s smooth and vibrato. I believe Taurus is the richest earth voice of them all as it is grounded and ruled by Venus. So the examples for the earth voice I would say are Freddie Mercury - Virgo, Elvis - Capricorn, and Louis Armstrong - Taurus. Finally for the water voice, to put it simply their voice usually has a LOT of soul. Some examples, Lady Gaga - Cancer, Barry White - Pisces, Tom Jones - Pisces, Beyonce - Scorpio.
Moving onto the 3rd house briefly. Now the 3rd house doesn’t have much to do with how your voice will sound, it is more of the mental side of communication. So things like lyrics and composing music would come from this house. Also because the 3rd house rules the hands, it may also dictate your ability in playing music.
And onto the 4th house. The 4th house is similar to the 1st house in such a way that is dictates style again. It Is actually sort of a mixture of the 1st house (who we are) and the 3rd house (how we communicate that), but the 4th house also reveals our emotions, the songs that come from within. The 4th house will show the root and meaning of songs; the feeling. Naturally water signs/planets can easily express emotions versus the air signs who may have some difficulty, but fun fact; the best poets/musicians usually have both air and water very prominent in their chart.
And the 5th house plays just as important part as the 4th house does. It’s creative potential. So if you can express your emotions through the 4th house, you need to creatively use them in the 5th house. Some of the best musicians have the 5th house prominent in their chart.
Pulling away from houses now… I want make a quick note about the blessing of how having a good balance of all the elements in a chart really can help a musician. Fire = passion/drive, Earth = rhythm, Air = intellect/skill, and Water = emotion. Obviously not all musicians have it all, but it really helps to have a good balance of them all.
Good placements for singers/musicians
-Venus in the 2nd or 5th house-Venus in its ruler or exalted sign-Venus in conjunction with the ascendant or midheaven-Venus having harmonious aspects to the ascendant or midheaven-Venus, Moon, and/or Neptune is prominent in the chart-Moon is not afflicted-Moon in Libra or Taurus-Stelliums in Libra, Taurus, 2nd House, or 5th House-Good aspects between Sun, Moon, Venus, and Neptune.-Good as aspects/placements in the 3rd house (will help indicate if there’s ability to play instruments)-Quintiles and biquintiles can show hidden talent. See if there are any between Venus, Mercury, Moon, or Neptune. Not so good placements
-Any afflictions to Venus or planets that sit in Taurus/Libra/2nd/5th can cancel out singing ability.-Any afflictions to the Mercury or planets that sit in the 3rd house or Gemini can make learning musical instruments difficult.

Asteroid Iris • The Rainbow Goddess ⭐🌈✨

Asteroid Iris(7) is the symbol of female intelligence (intuition) & is overlooked by so many astrologers. Where Iris sits in the birth chart shows where you must retain hope, be truthful & search for unity and healing. She symbolizes the light of pure consciousness in the astrological chart. A strong Iris connection is also a soul-mate indicator due to the authenticity & intuitive understanding of one other inherent in the bond it creates.
Iris in Aries/1st: Here, Iris denotes great beauty. She gives a swift, gentle, wise & versatile energy. Your communication style is very individualistic. Iris indicates having beautiful eyes & being able to communicate through them. (which are said to be the windows of the soul). You can communicate feelings telepathically just by gazing into your lover’s eyes. The Iris person is harmonious, intuitive, truthful & authentic. (Sasha Grey) / (Marilyn Monroe)
Iris in Taurus/2nd: Here, Iris teaches you valuable lessons about the transient nature of material possessions. As a result you place a high value on personal relationships, social issues & spiritual values. You’re likely to be an inspiration to others. You offer a hopeful perspective of opportunities for everyone to be sustained by the world’s resources. Your intuition is grounded in what is solidly real; you’re driven to ground an ideal vision. (Rachel Weisz) / (Queen Victoria)
Iris in Gemini/3rd: Here, Iris is concerned with the illumination & intuitive mind (right brain thinking). She represents hope, vitality & the power of communication via spiritual channels with the divine. You have an unusual mental connection & are able to easily intuit the real meaning behind words. Often, like the “Freudian slip” your own slips of the tongue, may reveal an unconscious truth ready to be revealed. (Kate Beckinsale) / (Ava Gardner)
Iris in Cancer/4th: Here, Iris seeks the promise of an exciting life somewhere else away from home. Her dreams are inspired by memories from past lives. You’re the intuitive psychic of the family, weaving eternal bonds amongst loved ones, subconsciously. You’re able to connect ancestral memories within your own psyche - immortalising yourself forever. You use your intuition to guide you to happiness. (Hedy Lamarr) / (Adriana Lima)
Iris in Leo/5th: Here, Iris is a brave explorer of the inner & higher realms. Your creativity is driven by a restless, questing preoccupation with the things of the mind, which can make you incredibly productive if you have a clear sense of what you’re doing. You spend your time in the delights of creating wisdom & in showing others how to imagine. Iris denotes great intuitive artistic talent. She also grants you unusually intuitive children. (Miley Cyrus) / (Lana Del Rey)
Iris in Virgo/6th: Here, Iris is inspired by the arts. Music plays a key role in tapping into your intuition. The harmonies & lyrics of favourite songs can instantly inspire you. You have a love of words and how they’re communicated. You’re intuitively interested in configurations, synchronicity, mysteries & patterns. You recognise that there’s a grand design & a destiny for humanity for which you detail meticulously in the landscape of your imagination. (Ella Purnell) / (Miranda Kerr)
Iris in Libra/7th: Here, Iris brings qualities of receptivity & awareness, and is strongly linked to the concept of Temperance – bringing harmony into an individual’s life based on the ability to adapt quickly & with conscience intelligence to bring the heart into balance. There is something very spacious and accommodating about your mind. Iris also points to truthfulness in relationships. You’re able to communicate authentically & with intuitive illumination to your lover. (Angelina Jolie) / (Amy Winehouse)
Iris in Scorpio/8th: Here, Iris is alive in your inner world with intense thoughts and feelings & it’s colours are many interesting hues of dark. You may feel, or think (sometimes it can be almost the same thing) that you’re responding to forces beyond your control. [The subtle realms of desire.] You can gain much insight into the deeper layers of the psyche, but this often involves pain, & may make you defensive. Your intuition is very powerful. (Margot Robbie) / (Eva Green)
Iris in Sagittarius/9th: Here, Iris expands the illumination of consciousness. You have the ability to embrace & comprehend everything. Of course you can get a bit carried away with fantasies about how you want things to be, instead of realising how they are. But truth will come out, sooner or later, & you have the grace to recognise when you’ve been wrong. You’re an idealist & a traveler, and can help to fire up others with the quest to explore & know. (Gene Tierney) / (Isabella Rossellini)
Iris in Capricorn/10th: Here, Iris is on top form, her communication skills are fantastic & a source of great potential for worldly success. You have a particular gift for listening & being present, and taking in everything around you. Your intuition is most powerful when you are subordinate over others. This enables you to tune your responses to situations with particular skill & sensitivity, winning approvals & opening doors. (Princess Diana) / (Grace Kelly)
Iris in Aquarius/11th: Here, Iris is an original thinker. You’re an empathetic and caring friend, ready with advice and comfort. You’re popular with people from all walks of life. You’re a leader because of your ability to intuitively predict future trends. This makes you a brilliant psychic or an astrologer, or any field that requires intuitive thinking & new perspectives. You’re a true genius, a pioneer & others need time to catch up to you. (Elizabeth Taylor) / (Queen Elizabeth the 1st)
Iris in Pisces/12th: Here, Iris has another symbol; the Caduceus. She uses her capacity to illuminate the mind as a symbol of healing & divine communication through which the kundalini rises with serpent-like energy. This, together with her rainbow symbol, indicates the capacity to bridge the lower & higher self in the evolved individual. Iris also gives the ability manifests through dreams & describes your capacity to give & receive messages in dream states. (Britney Spears) / (Bella Hadid)
*If Iris is [for example] conjunct Venus; read Libra/7th, too, or if Iris is conj. Pluto; read Scorpio/8th, too, etc.

Psyche in Astrology

Asteroid Psyche (16) in the natal chart shows where (house) our soul feels at home, what (sign) makes it feel at home. If you’ve ever felt like someone just gets ya, is one the same wavelength as you, you might have the same Psyches or have aspects with Psyche in synastry.
Psyche in Aries/ 1st house: my soul’s raw, childlike, chasing fireflies late in the summer night, with not even the wind being able to catch me; I don’t hide my soul behind a hundred layers of bullshit, which is why it has collected some bruises along the way.
Psyche in Taurus/ 2nd house: my soul belongs among the flowers, under the trees’ shade is where I feel most at home; city lights & city noise seem too bright, too loud for me; I wanna run barefoot on the grass, hear the birds singing, taste sweet honey, be at peace.
Psyche in Gemini/ 3rd house: my soul’s dancing with strangers at strange places, but are they really strangers if I know them all? I wanna hear music forever & wherever, want laughter & noise to never cease; my soul’s a library full of the knowledge I’ve gathered from all the places I’ve seen, all the people I’ve talked to.
Psyche in Cancer/ 4th house: my soul lives in my memories, moments long gone but kept alive inside my mind, whenever I’m alone I dream of home, the family that watched me grow, the people who were with me through it all. my soul never leaves the ones I love.
Psyche in Leo/ 5th house: my soul comes alive when the lights go out in the theatre, when I hear “And action!”, when I can feel all eyes on me; I am most at home when I get lost in art & forget about the world around me, when I let emotion guide my hand, voice, body.
Psyche in Virgo/ 6th house: my soul’s at peace whenever I spend time with my pet; out of all beings, animals understand me the most, words aren’t needed to communicate; I need a purpose, something to push me forward in life, to make me feel like I belong & am alive; a wasted, meaningless lifetime’s what I fear most.
Psyche in Libra/ 7th house: my soul’s wherever love resides, I speak love’s language & see it in every being, every flower; I’m forever searching for a familiar soul to spend my life with, I know we weren’t created to be alone & love alone, it’s a gift made to be shared with the world around us.
Psyche in Scorpio/ 8th house: my soul’s a one-way mirror - if I keep my side pitch-black while I look at the illuminated world through the mirror, I could see everything without being seen. if I step out of the shadows, stop seeking truth in the darkest of places, adjust my eyes to the light, I may find me a spot in the illuminated world. but I will see nothing.
Psyche in Sagittarius/ 9th house: my soul’s a nomad, it belongs nowhere & everywhere, it’s running beside antelopes in Africa’s wilderness, singing among the Amazon forest’s macaws, catching penguins with the polar bears (wut?). I’m a wandering soul, I dream of places I’ve never been to & wanna see the sun rise from every hill on earth.
Psyche in Capricorn/ 10th house: my soul’s walked through these places before, seen all these faces, no vice or virtue come as a surprise to me. I know that one must guard his soul to survive the frigid winters of the world, the savages that’ll tear you apart once you show weakness; it’s rare to find a place where it’s safe to reveal what’s underneath.
Psyche in Aquarius/ 11th house: my soul’s been looking for a home even since I came here; I keep asking the same question each person I meet, every place I go to - is it you is it you? and there’s never an answer. I speak to the stars, ask them why did you send me here, why do I feel like an exile, isn’t this supposed to be my home, and I only hear my own voice echoed back.
Psyche in Pisces/ 12th house: my soul’s climbing up the Beanstalk towards a castle in the sky, swimming in the clouds, going to places where time & space don’t exist, where you’re hearing a distant melody but it’s like a half-forgotten dream, far away & untouchable. my soul’s searching for something that will reach me through this world I created.

obscure moon sign matches🌙✨
*typically incompatible moon sign matches i have a soft spot for*
aries moon & scorpio moon🍷
these two will often feel drawn to each other. they are both ruled by mars and are filled with passion. both can have emotional outbursts, which the other can be understanding of. if scorpio moon falls in love with aries moon, they’ll be in it wholeheartedly and scorpio moon’s endless passion will keep aries moon interested.
taurus moon & leo moon🍑
these two moons value emotional loyalty above all else. both of these moons are naturally generous and value security. leo moon’s fieriness can spice up taurus moon without it being too much and taurus moon can calm leo moon like no other. these two moons are often more similar than one might think.
gemini moon & capricorn moon🍕
these two are quite the opposite. they both have trouble expressing their emotions. capricorn moon’s directness and gemini moon’s fun loving spirit can ease the emotional blocks and possibly even open up the conversation of how they are feeling. if they can get over their differences, they can truly open each other up and be a force to be reckoned with.
cancer moon & sagittarius moon🧁
both of these moons feel intensely and want to experience their emotions. cancer moon gives sagittarius moon comfort they refuse to acknowledge that they need and sagittarius moon opens cancer moon up in ways they never considered. their natural acceptance of feelings and beautiful attitudes can be a magical pairing.
virgo moon & aquarius moon🥑
aquarius moon’s taste for excitement allows virgo moon to dip their toe into things they would normally experiment with. aquarius moon can understand the caution and take things slow initially. as long as virgo moon is willing for the ride it should go swimmingly. also virgo moon’s eye for detail can notice aquarius moon’s overly rebellious and impulsive actions and stop dangerous decisions before it’s too late.
libra moon & pisces moon🍬
both of these moons value peace and harmony. they both hate conflict and know how to avoid it in a relationship. pisces moon can adjust to libra moon’s limits and libra moon will be fascinated by the dreamy and intuitive nature of pisces moon. libra moon brings pisces moon practicality and pisces moon brings softness to libra moon.
