When you finally have access to things like healthcare, therapy, and medication that helps you function and have made a to-do list that includes doing taxes and calling your insurance company and somehow none of it makes you anxious at all. What the HEEEEELLLLLLLL, HOW IS THIS NORMAL????

Where are the very slow tigers that are chasing me??

I'm. I'm not excited about anything on that list but I'm not not excited???? It's just things to do, that I gotta do, and I'm gonna do them because I can? I can!!

I'm making this a good luck post. May you get one big step closer to healing/recovering/gettinf the proper treatment and diagnoses for whatever is ailing you. Whether that's mental illness, chronic illness, disability, or simply a hardship you have to endure, may good things be on their way to you swiftly ❤️💕

[icarcissus]

You know, I stayed because I had enough love in me to endure you. And with love, I had hopes that you'd change. And with those hopes, I gave you chances. More than I can count and more than what a sane person would allow to be wasted. Spent, exhausted. I burned myself out trying to light your path towards the change you promised. But you never did.

[icarcissus]

What did I want to be?

Not this one. Not this one.

What is your Moon sign? The Moon through the Signs

Associated by emotional need.

Arguably, the Moon is as important as the Sun in astrology.  The Moon’s position determines your Moon sign, the same way the Sun’s position determines your Sun sign. It takes the Sun roughly 30 days to pass through a sign, it takes the Moon takes 2.3 days. Your Moon sign represents your emotions, fears, instincts, dreams, and subconscious. It represents the hidden repressive feelings that we are unwilling to admit or that of which we may not be aware. For these reasons, Astrologers have always looked to the Moon in drawing natal charts and horoscopes; with as much emphasis as looking at the Sun.

The descriptions below associate each moon sign according to its emotional needs, desires, motivations, challenges; and also offering important suggestions for each.  To determine your Moon sign, click the link below:

Link to find your moon sign

Moon signs:

Aries Moon: The emotional needs of an Aries Moon are impulsive, independent, and first in line. These pioneers act out their needs with no pretext and what they want becomes absolute, for a brief time before moving on. Their desires come from a fiery inner passion, but they are short-lived. New feelings discovered with a child-like innocence, instant gratification, playing with fire, and extreme competitions all fuel their motivation. Aries Moon people are impatient and present themselves bold, real, and forthright. For these people, the present moment takes precedence; and life is seen as a series of endless challenges. Yet despite their domineering attitude, their self-confidence  also waxes and wanes. If crossed or slighted, they take things personally, become tempestuous, and ignite like a flamethrower.  They do not hold grudges or extend aggression beyond immediate defense mechanisms. It is important for those with their Moon in Aries to use impulse and confrontation constructively, to seek healthy outlets for their emotions, and to find value in consistent stamina.

Taurus Moon: The emotional needs of a Taurus Moon are simple, strong, and sensual. These steadfast people seek to collect and satisfy their needs with the familiar. Their desires come from a grounded position and with soft affectation, but rarely extend outside comfort zones. Secure feeling gathered by conservative approaches, providing foundations for safety and security,  and collecting meaning possessions fuel their motivation. Taurus Moon people are romantic, enjoy material possessions, and seek time-tested reliable pleasures. These people are tied to the dependable physical world and rarely act on spontaneous impulse. Although responsive, loyal, and capable of protecting themselves; they can be very stubborn, immovable, and passive. They tend to be slaves to routine and have difficulty dealing with change. Determined and patient, these people value serenity, stability, and relaxation. It is important for those with their Moon in Taurus to use their unwavering affection for less possessive ends, and to find the value in adaptability.

Gemini Moon: The emotional needs of a Gemini Moon are curious, varied, and conversational. The twins need endless stimulation, and they satisfy this need by learning, considering, offering, and sharing multiple perspectives. Their desires come from a inner charm; often light-hearted and carefree, but also changeable and restless. Socializing, analyzing, joking around, spending time in crowds, reading, and thinking all fuel their motivation. These people see life as a perpetual work in progress; always shifting, always offering something to know and think about.  They have a boundless imagination, a cynical, trickster-like humor, and a way with words in dealings with people.  At home, however, they can become moody and irritable. Gemini Moon people are open to ideas, but rarely decisive; they spend more time talking about feelings than actually feeling; and they are easily bored with routines. As a result of their duplicitous feelings and mutable behaviors, they often seem flighty and misunderstood. It is important for those with their Moon in Gemini to use their quick wit, intelligence, and charm for more substantive ends, and to be confident making commitments.

Cancer Moon: The emotional needs of a Cancer moon are subjective, sensitive, and domestic. These sentimental people need to feel secure, so they cling to familiar things like the home and people they care for. Their desires come from a delicate solitude, never detached, birthed from memories and past impressions. Feelings for them are stored in a vast chamber, categorized and revisited frequently, and never forgotten. Peace and quiet, a loony sense of humor, and accommodating others fuel their motivation. Cancer Moon people desire to provide nourishment and comfort to those they consider family. No other Moon sign is so intuitive to understand the maternal needs of others; they often assume and welcome a motherly role. Despite their depth of feeling and caring sentiment, they can be extremely fearful of rejection, adeptly manipulative, and wrapped in themselves. It is important for those with their Moon in Cancer to find ways to compartmentalize their turbulent emotions, to let go of the past, and to mother themselves as much as they do others.

Leo Moon: The emotional needs of a Leo Moon are proud, gregarious, and creative. These entertaining people need many friends for showing off, dignified respect gained from courageous actions, and to be the center of attention once they are comfortable. Their desires come from well-developed sense of fairness and optimistic light that finds inspiration from their own story. While not necessarily outgoing, they can assume the role of an actor or comic within familiar groups. The need for lots of love and care, artistic expression, and an inner mission to set things right all fuel their motivation. Leo Moon people may become too prideful to expose their feelings to others, but are not averse to sulking in private when things do not go their way. They tend to be quite vain and concerned with image, but never sacrifice their integrity in both character and appearance. Leo Moon folk use humor to both mask and reveal their feelings; and they are adept at breaking uncomfortable silence by making themselves the subject of a joke. It is important for those with their Moon in Leo to avoid lazy self-indulgence, to rely less on needing attention from others, and to find value in humility when acting brave and courageous.

Virgo Moon: The emotional needs of a Virgo Moon are practical, unassuming, and pure. These people need to make logical sense of their feelings, to be of service to others, and to organize emotional desire in such a way that yields productive results. Their desires come from analytical, body-aware reality that aims for a simple, uncomplicated existence. Being useful or needed, taking care of life for others, adhering to a steady routine, and purifying toxic elements within them all fuel their motivation. Virgo Moon people have a tendency to lack self-confidence, become easily overwhelmed by stress, and worry needlessly about everything. They may appear shy and reserved; but it is because they prefer to be self-contained, and because they are intensely self-critical. Trust is earned for them; and despite their often nagging criticism, they value the reliability, loyalty, and pragmatism in others. They find much comfort in offering service to others; hospitality and “fixing” things comes natural to them. It is important for those with their Moon in Virgo to learn to be comfortable in their own skin, to foster their boundless curiosity and analytical mind for fun as well as work, and to introduce emotional sensitivity into their calculus of personal care.

Libra Moon: The emotional needs of a Libra Moon are interpersonal, balanced, and refined. These gentle people need partnership to best understand their feelings. They need to be engaged in social groups, surrounded by artistic beauty, and promoting peaceful accord. Their desires come from an elegant idealism, shimmering with playful charm and an innate sense of fairness.  Tranquility, mental rapport, socializing, and sharing all fuel motivation. They have an instinctive understanding of aesthetics, and thus have a deep respect and appreciation for all forms of art. Libra Moon people run into the danger of become co-dependent on another person, or crippled by feelings of discontent when alone. Separation can feel as though their life is being threatened. They are natural thinkers, skilled at debate and sophisticated conversation. Winning an argument, for them, is fun; but not if it creates dissention or discord. They shy from aggression and direct confrontation. Music is very important for the emotional stability of these people. It is important for those with the Moon in Libra to be decisive when confronted with indecision, to advocate fairness inside and out, and to be comfortable with emotion independently before sharing it with others.

Scorpio Moon: The emotional needs of a Scorpio Moon are passionate, sensitive, and intimidating. These perceptive people need privacy to explore the depths of their feelings and to master their intense emotions. Their desires come from an intuitive, often psychic, ambition to unlock the unknown and cut to the core of human motivation. Their innate understanding of human nature and piercing gaze can make others uncomfortable; as they are extremely perceptive and can easily see through facades. Loyalty and trust is crucial when revealing their own feelings to others. They may appear shy, yet still radiate a wildly attractive presence. Keeping secrets, investigating  unknown truths, empowering sexual attraction, and undressing layers of thought all fuel their motivation. Their subconscious operates on an all or nothing drive; and they will not engage in any action unless it is sanctioned wholeheartedly. Scorpio Moon people contend with a powerful subterranean force within them that may lead to repressed feeling or defensive reaction when confronted with perceived threats. It is important for those with the Moon in Scorpio to avoid self-destructive tendencies, and to accept both beginnings and endings as necessary for transformation.

Sagittarius Moon: The emotional needs of a Sagittarius Moon are visionary, expansive, and optimistic. These wandering souls need personal freedom and space, friendly competition, and the endless quest for truth and knowledge.  Their desires come from a curious, restless spirit with an instinct for following meaningful paths. These people fear being caged in and their helpful spirit is uncomfortable with routine. Different cultures, travelling to distant lands, varied social calendars, and the outdoors all fuel their motivation. They are fun, upbeat, outspoken, charismatic people who often assume the role of a teacher; imparting the wisdom, humor, and information they’ve acquired from their travels. Their rapid stream of  subconsciousness may lead to forgetfulness and irresponsibility; but even when they are unprepared, their sharp insight and cheerful attitude will carry them through hopeless challenges. Sagittarius Moon, though risk-takers and seemingly always on a mission, also tend to run away from their problems.  It is important for those with their Moon in Sagittarius to remember the value of patience, to appreciate feelings of constancy, and to rely on their blind faith for worthy aims.

Capricorn Moon: The emotional needs of a Capricorn moon are structured, tangible, and paternal.  These ambitious people need to feel useful and productive, drawing clear boundaries in pursuit of their noble endgame. Their desires come from well-protected interests, willing to give up short term gratification for long-term goals; never ceasing until the peak has been summited. Mountains of strength, almost authoritative, they are less interested in the messy emotion of the subconscious mind. They may appear cold to others; but this is because feelings frighten them, and they are just not comfortable with letting go. Most are too hard on themselves to benefit from letting their guard down.  Planning tasks, being successful, providing for others, and feeling worthwhile all fuel their motivation. Capricorn Moon people manage their emotions to keep them in check. They tend to cloak their true feelings with sarcasm or even silence; but this does not mean that they are any less emotional. They express their affections towards others in practical, provisional ways. It is important for those with their Moon in Capricorn to be less fearful of disorganized emotion, to be less hard on themselves for feeling sensitive, and to learn non-material ways of providing for others.

Aquarius Moon: The emotional needs of an Aquarius moon are humanitarian, progressive, and idiosyncratic. These independent people need to act with super human aspirations for the greater good, to understand the behavior of others, and to fight for the rights of others. Their desires come a non-conformist spirit willing to break order and rules in favor of new forward-minded systems for the better of all. They are trend-setters by instinct, often unknowingly predicting waves of interest on the horizon. Shocking others, asking why, studying human nature, and playing on the fringes of society all fuel their motivation. With an unpredictable and often eccentric subconscious, they need to be accepted for who they are. These folks are warriors for high ideals, willful and uncompromising; but, in their care for the collective, they tend to neglect the individual. This may make them seem distant, aloof, or even insensitive to the feelings of others. Aquarius moon people are sociable, but loners at heart. They pride themselves for being above base emotion and may alienate others with their strong egos. It is important for those with their Moon in Aquarius to value compassion, sensitivity, and process in the pursuit of the greater good.

Pisces Moon: The emotional needs of a Pisces Moon are dreamy, sacrificing, and fantastical. These empathetic people need imagination to escape from daily life and plenty of space to daydream. These people are psychic sponges, absorbing the moods of others involuntarily. They need solitude to feel their own energy, separated from others’. Their desires come from a romanticism that knows how moments feel without actually experiencing them, and that sees life as barren when stripped of meaning. They often seem spaced out or not in touch with reality, but life operates with guiding psychic vibrations that are invisible to others. Interpreting dreams, alleviating human suffering, expressing affection through art, and retreating from reality all fuel their motivation. Their tendency to self-sacrifice urges them to adopt the martyr role, but often to their detriment when unnecessary. As a result, they are easily taken advantage of by manipulative people. Pisces Moon people are old souls, filled with a reservoir of aged wisdom that appears to them instinctively when needed. These people are quite moody, and in their desire to escape, may fall prey to a variety of addictions. It is important for those with their Moon in Pisces to set emotional boundaries to avoid losing themselves in others, and to be as compassionate to themselves as they are to others.

Signs as my favorite Greek love stories pt. 2

Aries, Pisces: Galatea and Acis

Galatea was one of the most beautiful Nereids and she fell in love with Acis. Acis felt the same and they started a relationship. One day they were at a field where Acis was signing Galatea a love song, unfortunately he was heard by Polyphemus, a cyclops that was also in love with Galatea. Upon seeing them he was filled with rage and picked up a huge boulder and threw it on Acis. After seeing what happened, Galatea took his blood and turned him into a river and his spirit became an immortal river spirit just like she is. The stones which Polyphemus threw became the Cyclopian Rocks in Sicily.

Taurus, Libra: Philemon and Baucis

An old married couple that lived in Phrygia. They were very poor and barely even survived on their own, but they always welcomed the guests that came at their door. One day 2 strangers showed up and needed shelter, they took them in right away and served them. The strangers were actually disguised Zeus and Hermes. After realizing that they are gods the couple offered to sacrifice the last thing they had, a goose. Touched by their kindness and love, Zeus and Hermes took them to a near mountain and then destroyed their village as punishment for everyone who turned them down. He offered to grant them any wish they had. The only thing they ask for was to die at the same time so the other wouldn’t have to suffer. When the time came that’s exactly what the Gods did and they turned them in trees, oak and lime. So they can stand next to each other for all eternity.

Gemini, Leo: Penelope and Odysseus

After the Trojan war, Odysseus, king of Ithaca was ready to come back home. Unfortunately he angered the God Poseidon and his journey prolonged to 10 years. During that time his wife was getting numerous offers for marriage, at the beginning she managed to turn them down, saying how her husband will be back soon, but over time that excuse wasn’t enough. A lot of suitors showed up and demanded her hand in marriage and she was powerless to stop them. She promised that she will marry someone right after she finishes a burial shrug for Odysseus’ father. For 3 years , she would weave during the entire day and then at night she would undo one part of the shrug and then in the morning she will have to start all over again. Finally Odysseus showed up and dressed as a beggar he entered the palace and killed all 108 Penelope’s suitors.

Virgo, Capricorn: Paris and Helen

In one occasion Paris got on Aphrodite’s good side and she promised him the hand of the most beautiful girl in the world, Helen. Unfortunately she was already married to king Menelaus. Paris sneaked into Menelaus’ chambers and abducted Helen (some myths say that she left willingly, because she fell in love with Paris as soon as she laid eyes on him) As a result Menelaus gathered an army and set attack on Troy, Paris’ kingdom, thus starting the Trojan war. In the war Philoctetes mortally wounded Paris and Helen took him to his first wife, nymph Oenone, hoping she could save him. But bitter over the fact that Paris left her for another women she refused and Paris died.

Scorpio, Cancer: Hyacinth and Apollo

Hyacinth was (probably) a prince of Sparta and a lover of Apollo. But Zephyrus, the god of West wind was also in love with Hyacinth. Hyacinth chose Apollo and that angered  Zephyrus. Unable to spend time with him, Zephyrus always watched them, hoping for an opportunity to be together. One day Apollo and Hyacinth were throwing discus. Apollo threw it and Hyacinth ran to catch it, trying to impress Apollo. But in that moment Zephyrus changed the wind direction and the discus hit Hyacinth in the head, killing him. When it was time for Hyacinth to go to the Underworld Apollo wouldn’t let his soul go, so he turned him into a flower from his spilled blood. That way they can stay together forever.

Sagittarius, Aquarius: Perseus and Andromeda

Andromeda was the princess of Aethiophia. One day her mother Cassiopeia committed hubris by saying her daughter is more beautiful than Nereids. That angered Poseidon and he sent a sea monster to ravage the coasts of Aethiophia. After consulting the oracle they found out that the only way to stop him was to sacrifice Andromeda. So they tied her up naked to a rock. In that moment Perseus was coming back from his quest and saw her. He took out the Medusa’s head and turned the creature into stone. He freed Andromeda and took her as his wife, but, she was already promised to someone else, her uncle Phineus. At the wedding Perseus showed up and turned Phineus into stone . He and Andromeda sailed away together. She followed him through all his quests until they finally set in Argos. There they started a long dynasty of Persidae. They lived happily together until they grew old. When both of them died Athena put them into the sky and turned them into constellations.

why you keep getting hurt, based on your moon sign

ARIES: you may find yourself doing the hurting in your relationship. love for you is supposed to be exciting, and when you’re not excited about the relationship, it’s easy for you to let go. but hurting people doesn’t feel good. not many people realize this, but aries don’t intend to hurt people. they just naturally put themselves first. it hurts them when people close to them hurt. you may have a lot of trouble finding someone who understands you and your carefree attitude about relationships. maybe love isn’t for you, you begin to think. 

TAURUS: you have an intense loyalty to the people you love. so much so, in fact, that you stay in situations that you may be better off walking away from. to you, a partnership is a long term commitment and any problems that may arise can be worked out, if people are willing to work at it. the problem is, you’re always willing to work on it and the other person may not be so willing. people take advantage of you. you don’t like to fail. when relationships end for you, it causes you a lot of pain because you feel like you failed. you start to think about all the things you could have done to make things work, but you can’t change someone else no matter how hard you try. 

GEMINI: you’re very hard on yourself. you have this weird war going inside you. a part of you thinks “im in a v srs relationship, this is srs business,” while the other side is wanting to have fun and gets bored staying in one spot. you can be hard on others too. you have these ideas about what a good partner should be like and what a serious relationship is supposed to look like, so you tend to dwell on flaws that may not even be deal breaker worthy. finding a balance and learning to let go of preconceived ideas about relationships is a challenge for you. if you don’t find a balance, you’ll feel lost and like no one is out there for you. 

CANCER: you care SO much about people. you always do incredibly thoughtful gestures for the people you love. maybe your partner made an offhand comment once about liking this super niche movie that’s hard to find, and you go out there and buy it. it’s hard for people to match your insane effort. the thing is, you want someone to treat you how you treat others. you want someone to remember that story you told about your favorite vacation as a kid and then they surprise you with plane tickets for your birthday. people show love in all sorts of ways, but it’s hard for you to accept love in a way that’s different from the way you love. if it’s not these insane, sentimental gifts, it’s not enough for you. you feel unfulfilled. 

LEO: you put people on a pedestal. you have high standards, or you at least like to think you have high standards. when you’re into someone, you’re like “oh my god! finally someone who is everything I’ve been looking for!” you begin to see them as this vision you had in your head of the person you pictured yourself with. but fantasy is not reality. when this person doesn’t live up to that fantasy, you get hurt. you’re a hopeless romantic and very grandiose in the way you express your love. everything about love to you is a fairytale. you’re setting impossibly high standards for not only potential partners, but even yourself. 

VIRGO: we live in a society where reminding someone to put their seatbelt on is nagging. to you, this is an act of love. you’re a perfectionist with yourself and your love life. you love through constructive criticism and communication. never mind the fact that people just can’t take criticism these days, people instinctually become defensive. you don’t mean it to come across as critical and naggy, you genuinely want you, the other person, and your relationship to be the best it can be. you feel misunderstood and you probably have begun to give in to thinking there’s something inherently wrong with you.  

LIBRA: love for you is more than just emotions, it’s a conscious decision you make everyday. this will cause you to stay in situations that aren’t right for you. once you’ve decided to be with someone, you’ve decided and now you have to deal with this commitment. pair that with a need to keep the peace and you can drive yourself crazy, dealing with other people’s bullshit that you shouldn’t have to deal with. you bend so much to the needs of the other person, because you’re adaptable so you can be the one to compromise to keep the relationship harmonious. but by doing this, you neglect your own needs and you become blind to how you truly feel and what you truly want. 

SCORPIO: not many people realize it, but you have very high standards. this comes from your overall pessimistic view on people, which probably stems from going through a lot of disappointment in your past. you are insanely loyal to those you’re with and you love HARD. you may often feel that no one will love you the way you love them. you don’t even always express just how deeply you love someone. you don’t like to admit it, but you get deeply attached to people. when someone inevitably doesn’t live up to your standards, this causes you a lot of pain. 

SAGITTARIUS: people fucking suck. everyone has skeletons in their closets and baggage. people take themselves and relationships too seriously. you just want to have fun with the person you’re with. you have a hard time dealing with the human side of people. why does everyone else have to be so negative, you think. love is an amazing thing! and we should have fun while we have time on this earth together. much like aries, you may have begun to think love isn’t for you because everyone else is out here taking the fun out of love. 

CAPRICORN: there’s an inherent loneliness than comes with being a cap moon. you come across as cold to others because the way you express love is so different than everyone else. emotions take a back seat, you love through providing for your partner and becoming the best at what you do to ensure a comfortable life for yourself and those you love. people see that as putting your work before your loved ones, but that’s not your intention. failures in your love life have caused you to completely stop seeking out potential partners, even if you would really love to be in a relationship right now. 

AQUARIUS: the person you’re with is not only your partner, but your best friend. but isn’t that a good thing? it can be, but you have the tendency to detach from the emotional and romantic side of the relationship. you’re afraid of your emotions sometimes, and you’ve developed this ability to completely detach. people you are with may feel like you don’t love them, they’ll begin to feel more like your friend than your lover. but that’s not how you mean for it to come across! you just have a hard time expressing love in a way that others can understand. 

PISCES: you give people too many chances. you see people how you want to see them, rather than for who they truly are and you usually default to seeing the best in everyone. you gravitate towards relationships where one of you needs saving. if you’re the one who needs saving, you put too much of that responsibility into the other person. if you’re the savior in the relationship, you have a hard time realizing that you can’t save someone who doesn’t want to be saved. 

let’s all have a group hug <3 astrology is a wonderful tool to not only understand yourself, but to understand others. treat each other kindly and embrace differences in people. 

this is based off of my very first series on twitter. you can follow me @classtrology_ for more frequent astrological posts! I am not accepting full birthchart readings at this time, but simple questions and brief sun/moon/rising combo readings can be done through my ask on here.

ASTRO NOTES: Synastry Edition 💍💋👅

1. Jupiter in the eighth house can indicate having a large quantity of sex with a partner (think quantity over quality) but can be good for having joint finances and sharing.

2. Having Saturn in a partners fifth house can be challenging. You may feel that the partner is boring or like you don’t have anything in common, but because Saturn is the teacher, you can learn to like the way the other person does things. It all depends on how Saturn is aspected.

3. Having Venus in a partners first indicates a huge physical attraction (especially for a man because Venus represents a mans point of attraction) it is up to the couple to keep the attraction alive though! Check how Venus is aspected.

4. A large quantity of planets falling into the fourth house can indicate marriage or feeling happy living together.

5. Positive Pluto aspects with a partner can mean that you have a soul connection.

6. A man’s Moon in a woman’s first house can also indicate marriage. The man feels that he can share his inner feelings with this woman.

7. A partners sun falling into the 12th house can be positive or negative. The 12th house holds your unconscious fears, so when your partner illuminates that, it can be kind of scary. It’s up to you if you want to face those fears though.

8. Pluto conjunct a partners ascendant can show an instant attraction. Make sure this is a healthy attraction that doesn’t turn into obsession!

9. Moon in the 9th house can show long distance relationships.

10. When a partner has Venus in the 3rd house they like to write love letters, poetry, songs and other forms of artistic expression about the partner. They like to use their mental abilities to impress the partner.

Astrology: The 7th house and the relationship partner

Our ascendant sign indicates how we distinguish ourselves as an individual. It depicts the characteristics we project into the outer world and how we proclaim our “I am”.

In regards to this, our descendent then indicates who we declare as “They are”. The sign here indicates the type of people we attract or are attracted to as they provide contrast to who we define ourselves as - Ever heard “opposites attract”?

The 7th house is often associated with romantic relationships, however this is commonly the simplified modern interpretation of this house.

Essentially what the 7th house represents is any situation where you are in ‘contract’ with another person in a one-on-one circumstance. You come to agreements here, and this is why this house is associated with the marriage partner (and also business relationships and deals, as well as law and close friendships).

The sign here indicates the characteristics attractive in another person, and also indicates who is drawn to you. It is often 9 times out of 10 that we have our longest and most successful relationships with people who have the sign on out descendent on one of their personal planets or their rising sign.

Many other factors can alter this such as:

The ruler of the sign on our DC (sign/house and aspects play a vital role in interpretation)

Venus house, sign and aspects

Juno house, sign and aspects

Looking at the ruler of the 7th house and its condition is very important if you 7th house is empty!

No…this does not mean you’ll live alone with 9 cats and a parakeet called Charlie…your 7th house ruler will give you more information as to the nature of your potential future relationship partner.

In fact, if your 7th house is empty, the bond you can create when someones planet falls into this house can strengthen your connection with them as their presence seems to ‘complete’ you in a way you find magnetic and romantic.

Check the sign on your descendent + the sign the ruler is in (regardless if you have planets in the 7th or not) as this will highly indicate the most likely people you’ll form relationships with.

Note* This will also indicate how you will act in relationships with other people! (This will greatly depend on if you subconsciously project these characteristics onto another person/if they have planets in this sign)

Also take note of any planets in the 7th house

* The house of the 7th ruler (+ aspects) will also have an influence - for advanced readers

“If Only The Sky Would Disappear” by Cameron Gray

[ayyries]

Saturn focuses on the quality of things, not the quantity. In the House Saturn resides in, you may not have a lot of certain things you want. You may not have as much friends as you like, or as many talents as you wanted. However, you’ll find out that whatever you do get from Saturn will be highly valued. Saturn will make you appreciate the hard work taken to get or make something of quality. Saturn will make you see behind the scenes because you will be behind the scenes. You will feel every movement, every struggle, and figure out every nuance.

You may feel discouraged early on because you lack abundance, but you’ll realize later on that if you were blessed with abundance earlier, you may take very important items in your life for granted. Saturn teaches that you don’t need everything to be happy… you just need one thing that is lasting, helpful, and of high quality. Saturn will make you work for it so that you’ll appreciate it when you finally get it.

[icarcissus]

Chiron in 1st: wounded sense of identity. (ex: you were most likely never taught to build up an identity or even to be anyone, to define yourself clearly, and to be assertive and projective). A wound may exist around your appearance, or your general presence. (ex: people may see you as the embodiment of something wounded because your wounds have become etched onto your whole being and appearance). It's now easy to associate your wounds with your identity. You can be a powerful and compassionate healer, when you stop connecting past wounds to who you are today.

Chiron in 2nd: wounded sense of security and self-worth. (ex: you were made to feel unworthy, ridiculed for things that made you feel secure, or security was taken away from you or was at the very least threatened in some sense). A wound may exist around the things you own and consider yours. (ex: your belongings may have been stolen, damaged at various times, etc, lack of respect for your things or your security. Also, people didn't build up your self-worth but may have tore it down instead, and you now may be insecure).

Chiron in 3rd: wounded sense of intelligence. (ex: you may have been made to feel stupid and less intelligent, even if you knew things.) You have a fear around communicating what you know as a result of this wound. A wound may exist around being openly communicative about difficult things. (ex: maybe you tried to talk about things but were shut down a lot).

Chiron in 4th: wounded sense of identity within the family of origin. (ex: family wounds can exist, most likely your identity here is somewhat undefined or weak, you felt different, you were scapegoated). A wound exists around your mother, your roots and foundations. (ex: you most likely were exposed to harsh emotional realities too soon, and the innocence of childhood stopped quickly). You have caring capacities within you, and must build foundations that sit upon a place of healing, not wounds.

Chiron in 5th: wounded sense of self-expression and creativity. (ex: you were not encouraged to express your gifts, talents and what made you special, it may have been ignored or suppressed). A wound may exist around love and the giving and receiving of it. (ex: you might not feel worthy of it or there may be constant romantic rejection). You have a lot of love to give, don't lose it just because some people don't want it.

Chiron in 6th: wounded sense of duty and service. (ex: you were made to feel useless, unneeded, that your help caused more of a mess). A wound may exist around a health issue, and around work. (ex: an ongoing health situation, not having a job and being excessively judged for it). You have a karmic responsibility to heal and look after an animal.

Chiron in 7th: wounded sense of love. (ex: you married someone or were with someone early in life who showed you all your wounds, through their own wounds). A wound exists around relationships. Since you've had painful experiences in relationships, you close off from them and refuse to enter into them. Relationships always hurt and always will a little bit, but you have to find your strength through them, or risk being alone forever.

Chiron in 8th: wounded sense of trust and intimacy. (ex: someone who you were intimate with, who you invested everything into, people you trusted in general, may have disappointed you in some way, broke and abused that trust somehow). A wound exists around betrayal, and you tend to hit the self-destruct button constantly because of your pain. Transcending pain is essential.

Chiron in 9th: wounded sense of perspective, hope and belief. (ex: your view of the world was shattered and wounded at an early age, you didn't get to see how good the world is, only how wounded it is). A wound exists around your faith in life as a result (ex: you might never have been encouraged to believe in anything, so you can feel stifled, cut off from higher powers). You have idealism in you, you just need to connect to it.

Chiron in 10th: wounded sense of success and recognition. (ex: your achievements may have been overlooked or didn't get as much attention or recognition as others). A father and authority wound. (ex: an absent father, a father who rejected you, authority figures that lied to you). Now you may feel inadequate or unworthy of success and achievements, but you are. You must be successful as your leading example will be healing for others and encourage them to do the same.

Chiron in 11th: wounded sense of belonging. (ex: you were never accepted or welcomed in by peers, you were made to feel like the black sheep, alienated in groups at school, generally unpopular). No one seemed to want your friendship or include you in anything. But you have the gift of friendship and fairness, you just need to find those ones who will be good to you now.

Chiron in 12th: wounded sense of compassion. (ex: you were compassionate for something or someone in your childhood, but it was unacknowledged, rejected, unwanted). The suffering you have gone through in your childhood has left wounds which lie in the subconscious mind; you know something plagues you but it's invisible, it's elusive. You need to be honest with what has hurt you, with this position of Chiron, and work on healing those wounds. When you do, you're able to be a healing influence towards others just by being. When you focus on the bigger picture, it's a healing influence for you and others.

NOTE:

1: Transiting Chiron through the houses will manifest these situations as well. It's the transiting wounded healer, so wherever Chiron transits will expose where you are currently dealing with some insecurity or wound, but also where you have healing abilities too.

2: Look at your progressed chart and see what house Progressed Chiron is currently in. This shows where you are also, perhaps for a while to come and a while already, wounded in some sense. Relate this back to your natal Chiron position too.

3: Look at aspects to natal and progressed Chiron - what planets does the wounded healer aspect, and what house are they in? Those planets and houses are touched by Chiron's wound.

4: Chiron is a wound that hurts. In Greek mythology, Chiron was the centaur that was renowned for his wisdom and knowledge of medicine and healing. He was renowned for being "the wisest and justest of all the centaurs". This indicates that he has powerful healing abilities. Your Chiron can therefore be a strength - see it this way and you will be able to help others with similar wounds, and it may even alleviate some of yours.

Ascendant square Venus

There is a tendency here to show that the pursuit of security and happiness in life is very different then the outer behavior and way a person approaches the world.  To find happiness basically a person needs to be aware of how they behave.  They need to ask if it is really helping promote that need for happiness they seek?  

If Venus is in the 4th house can show the family needs and balance and harmony to achieve that security.  If Venus squares the ascendant, then how the person behaves can have an impact on how they achieve that balance in life that is needed for emotional security.  The “outer self” is almost always at offs with achieving those personal needs.  Same with Venus in the 10th if that is responsible for the square.  The inner self needs happiness through building a reputation, yet the outer behavior conflicts with the needs for security in the mature years.  There really is a need to focus and meditate if your attitude about life is responsible for your lack of happiness; and it probably is.

Moon square Venus

What a person needs for emotional security is at odds with where they find happiness and pleasure in life.  Since Moon rules over how we think and take life in there can be issues with perceptions and involvements with relationships. There can be a tendency to push people away out of fear of being vulnerable. The same can be said for pleasure in general.  Anything that can bring happiness through emotional attachment can be kept at distance.  There can be a general issue with thinking through what is needed to emotionally content and balanced.

The simple answer is understanding what Venus represents; values.  With this square you need to learn about what you value, so you can understand what that is will make you happy.  This is much preferable then chasing things that might make you happy or give into the needs of others.  What is valued is important for avoiding the nasty trap of disconnect this square can bring.  If you pursue more of what you happy and initiate and get your butt moving in that direction, you’ll feel less include towards settling or wasting resources, time and money on things that don’t bring you any satisfaction. 

Since the Moon can rule the mother or early home influence in life there is a need to separate her perception of happiness versus your own.  It’s ok to “independently happy” and be your own person to find pleasure.  She may of told you or forced upon a certain perception of kind of partner or things you needed to own.  The reality is you don’t need those things, you just need to start doing what it takes for you to be happy.

so many people overlook the genuine love of friends. how platonic relationships sometimes are more permanent. friendships like “hang on let me send you a nude i want you to tell me if this underwear looks good”. friendships like no, don’t, the peach looks literally so much better on you, you pop in peach. friendships like dump him but i understand why it’s hard for you to let go of deep relationships so i’ll be here until you do dump him and i’ll be the only one not to say “i told you so.” friendships like call me at three in the morning because of a spider, like hey saw this and thought of you but it’s a spongebob meme, like people think we’re dating and we honestly haven’t corrected them, like tell you the truth even if it’s a hard one to hear, like trust you with my life. friendships like wait i have the perfect outfit for you to wear on your date i’m driving the 45 minutes so we can play dressup and talk about flirting. like i know when to comfort you and when to distract you. like you’re kind of my favorite person but like also don’t tell anyone i said that i will deny it you’re gross and a jerk. like i know you’re sad come over i made cider and halloweentown is queued up and ready to go. like i will use your body as a shield between myself and the scary movie but i have also jumped someone for speaking badly to you. like you’ve been my rock my sword and the person who drags my drunk ass home. like that love that’s just two people who can sit in a room together with a bottle of wine in our bodies talking about how directors make poor color choices in movies. that’s love. don’t write it off because they don’t make movies around it. but that’s love.
