hi, hope you're well! i'm genuinely still learning about my chart, and have been reading about pluto. my natal pluto is in capricorn at 0°, in the 10th house. it's also in retrograde 😭
i've always felt responsible for paving the way for others, setting an example or like just wanting to creating positive impact on others through what i do.
it also conjuncts my sag mc. sorry if i'm asking too much, i've always found your interpretations clear and really accurate! thanks 🩷
thank you for your ask and I hope you are well.
firstly, Sagittarius over the Midheaven can suggest traveling for work or working with people from foreign backgrounds. there is a real essence of "truth and leadership" here, so it may make sense why you want to work with others (especially from around the world) and guide them towards living their truth and freedom. look to where Jupiter is in your chart; this can help you further determine how your career will take shape in your future. as a whole, however, this placement can promise a very spiritual career in which not only you work for your own spiritual needs and goals, but possibly with the goals and needs of others
secondly, Pluto tends to do quite well in the tenth house because of how Pluto can exercise its desire for power and authority. because the tenth house is the house of work and social status, Pluto, more positively, can be a great leader with great potential for power in one's workplace or society. wanting power and authority is not a bad thing, if done right. having strong morals and being driven by fairness and justice is reflective of a good Pluto in the tenth house. there is also a strong awareness of one's responsibility or moral obligation in the workplace or society as a whole. Pluto in the tenth house can offer an easier way to achieve political or social success through having a natural knack for things such as social justice, politics, equality, and so on, which are felt on a deep level, and thus give you more of a purpose to achieve something in your life. having a spiritual perspective on the workplace can also help you make your own life more fulfilling, as the concept of work isn't seen as something as daunting as a 9-5, but a more fulfilling means to achieve a greater goal in this world, possibly fulfilling a personal or spiritual prophecy of some kind. in 0º there is definitely a curiosity or willingness to be more daring and courageous here, and having Pluto in Capricorn can be very symbolic of a rebellious energy who wants to dismantle "the system" to pave way for a new way of doing things
whilst Pluto is more of a generational planet by sign, it can still be hugely effective in one's chart. for those born under the Pluto sign of Sagittarius, they will be more driven to achieve spiritual fulfilment and prophecy in their lives. their own truth and meaning will guide them towards what type of lives they should live. this is the age of the internet and social media, so connecting the world together, literally. for those born under the sign of Capricorn, this manifests as having a social awareness of "the system" and its outdated functions. in saying that, then, natives with this placement will feel more determined to break down what is old and traditional and stuck, to rebel against what no longer works, and create a new system for equality and fairness
I hope this answered your question 🫂
hi🤍🤍 i really enjoy reading your insights :) and i was wondering if you could please help me learn more about my 11th house leo venus (23°) conjunct saturn (22°) opposite my 5th house aquarius moon (19°) conjunct neptune rx (21°). chiron is also there at 14°😮💨😮💨
if you're reading this, thank you so much for your time<3
thanks for your ask and I hope you are doing well.
Venus and Saturn in conjunction with one another almost always suggest a poor self-esteem or a lack of faith/confidence in oneself, so it may be that you struggle with a general sense of inadequacy within yourself. this can influence how you behave and thus form relationships with others, both platonic and romantic. with the Moon in the fifth house, you tend to place a lot of emotional emphasis on your relationships, and you may even borderline rely on them for some level of emotional comfort or stability. with that, you may have a hard time being alone or you may have a hard time feeling lonely or ostracised from others. perhaps you are very aware of how others think of and perceive you, and you base your identity on the opinions and values of others
the Moon in the fifth house can positively express its emotions through relationships and through pursuing more emotional and creative outlets. it's not enough for the Moon to feel happy in relationships or in love. the Moon has to authentically express its feeling in a way that is dignified and stable. the Moon in the fifth house is heavily liable to being codependent on the validation and attention of others, as all Leo placements are. Leo Venus natives tend to also feel their best in relationships or in love where they can express their loving qualities, but they are equally susceptible to turning reliant on these relationships for meaning and expression. Chiron in and Neptune in the fifth house can not only delude your sense of creative and emotional expression (i.e. make understanding your emotions hard), but also provide a way for healing in these areas. as Chiron is symbolic of our wounds and areas for healing, Chiron in this house can suggest being more creative in your own way, and pursuing your own identity and authenticity, as a way for healing. gaining autonomy in who you are as a person, and eliminating your reliance on the validation or company of other people, is the first step to being more stable and content with your own self.
Saturn in the eleventh house can often suggest feelings of social awkwardness or nervousness in social settings. perhaps you never felt as though you truly belonged anywhere, and maybe your friendships or relationships are experienced more tumultuously than others; perhaps you want to be loved by others and you want to love others, but you do this in a way that feels intrusive or needy
these various conjunctions only heighten the emphasis of the qualities of these planets. the Moon, Chiron, and Neptune conjuncting one another can suggest a wounded self-perception and a wounded way of expressing oneself (i.e. lacking confidence, values, and boundaries) but also a fantastic imagination that can express one's emotions and deeper thoughts on a profoundly creative and spiritual way. you may even have an interest in pursuing something holistic. you may be interested in drawing or writing as a way of expressing how you feel. the consensus here is following a creative medium that allows you to understand yourself more through expressing yourself and thus coming to terms with who you are now, and where you want to be in the future. friends and such can help you, but they will only be able to do so much before you have to follow your own path of being ⭐️
I hope this answered your question!
#0050 the concept of opposite ("sister") signs in astrology
the idea of opposite signs, or sister signs, encompasses the concept of polarity and duality in astrology, which is essential in understanding and maintaining balance within a birth chart. as a whole, the birth chart is made up of twelve houses and twelve signs, with each sign having its opposing force. it works as follows:
for aries (1h), its opposite sign is libra (7h)
for taurus (2h), its opposite sign is scorpio (8h)
for gemini (3h), its opposite sign is sagittarius (9h)
for cancer (4h), its opposite sign is capricorn (10h)
for leo (5h), its opposite sign is aquarius (11h)
for virgo (6h), its opposite sign is pisces (12h)
and vice versa. the qualities of these signs and houses, also, compliment one another in the following way: fixed signs will always oppose other fixed signs; mutable signs will always oppose other mutable signs; and cardinal signs will always oppose other cardinal signs. soft and hard aspects don't matter; these aspects can oppose any sign and/or quality.
we can expand on this and see how planets may be influenced by these oppositions.
with mars ruling aries, mars will experience its domicile in aries. mars will experience its detriment libra, aries' opposing sign. mars will also experience its exaltation in capricorn, and its fall in cancer
with venus ruling taurus and libra, venus will experience its domicile in taurus and libra. venus will experience its detriment in scorpio and aries, their opposing signs. venus will also experience its exaltation in pisces, and its fall in virgo
with mercury ruling virgo and gemini, mercury will experience its domicile in virgo and gemini. mercury will experience is detriment in pisces and sagittarius, their opposing signs. mercury will experience its exaltation in virgo, and its fall in pisces
with the moon ruling over cancer, the moon will experience its domicile in cancer. the moon will experience its detriment in capricorn, cancer's opposing sign. the moon will experience its exaltation in taurus, and its fall in scorpio
with the sun ruling over leo, the sun will experience its domicile in leo. the sun will experience its detriment in aquarius, its opposing sign. the sun will experience its exaltation in aries, and its fall in libra
with mars and pluto ruling over scorpio, these two planets will experience their domicile in scorpio. pluto and mars will experience their detriment in libra and taurus, the opposing signs of both aries and scorpio. whilst trans-personal planets aren't really associated with exaltations and falls, some argue pluto experiences its exaltation in leo, thus experiencing its fall in aquarius
with jupiter ruling over sagittarius and pisces, jupiter will experience its domicile in sagittarius and pisces. jupiter will experience its detriment in gemini and virgo, its opposing signs. jupiter will experience its exaltation in cancer, and its fall in capricorn
with saturn ruling over capricorn, saturn will experience its domicile in capricorn. saturn will experience its detriment in cancer, its opposing sign. saturn will experience its exaltation in libra, and its fall in aries
with saturn and uranus ruling over aquarius, these planets will experience their domicile in aquarius. they will experience their detriment in aquarius and capricorn, their opposing signs. whilst trans-personal signs aren't really associated with exaltations and falls, it's usually interpreted for uranus to be exalted in scorpio, thus experiencing its fall in taurus
with neptune ruling pisces, neptune will experience its domicile in pisces. neptune will experience its detriment in virgo, its opposing sign. whilst trans-personal planets aren't really associated with exaltations and falls, it could be interpreted neptune is exalted in cancer, thus experiencing its fall in capricorn
the reason why opposite signs exist in astrology is to represent a more fundamental and profound need for balance and duality. aries and libra, for example, are two cardinal signs; they exist as two separate entities with two different personalities, but once merged together, create a closely symbiotic relationship whereby their differences actually create a shared ground from which to grow further from. all of a sudden, these two wildly different personalities become one dual nature. this is because aries, ruling individuality and action, balanced libra's need for duality and diplomacy. the two create a common understanding of needing to be independent and whole in oneself (aries) but to also have a social and romantic presence with others, thus becoming one with the crowd (libra). this dynamic is also seen in the birth chart wherein the first house (ascendent) must be balanced with the seventh house (descendent).
the need for balance is even found with planets such as pluto and asteroids such as the lunar nodes. pluto, first of all, represents the area(s) of our lives we may experience the most change and loss in. despite being in one house, though, pluto will still influence the opposing house. for example, if pluto is in the 5h, it will still influence the 11h because of pluto's need to change and transform the 5h to balance itself with the 11h. the lunar nodes, also, will sit in opposite ends of the birth chart. for example, the south node could be in the 6h, but the north node would sit in the 12h. more information on what kind of change and transformation will occur depending on the signs and houses involved, and also relevant aspects. the overarching understanding here, however, is that both pluto and the lunar nodes, for example, are literal proofs of the need to use these opposing signs to establish better balance and change in oneself.
an example may be as follows: pluto is in the 7h, but will experience its polar opposition in the 1h. the message here is that, despite inciting change and transformation in the 7h of relationships and marriage, the 1h is relevant in the sense that these 7h changes bring about new epiphanies and values that revolve around 1h themes of individuality and independence. this means that natives who are drawn to having relationships will experience change and loss in their relationships to teach them about the value of their own individuality and personal freedom.
another example for pluto can be: pluto is in the 2h, but will experience its polar opposition in the 8h. the understanding here is that pluto will bring about change in 2h terms of money and personal values, but the 8h relevance here is in these natives embracing a more spiritual way of assigning themselves value, as well as their approach to money. where these natives may be obsessively driven to make money and prove their worth with money and material things, thus assigning their value to how much money they have, pluto will incite loss in this area of life so natives think more spiritually (8h) about who they truly are without money and material things. the balance here is found in natives pursuing money for the sake of having an easier and more luxurious life, but perceiving themselves, their worth, and their money as a way of improving their spiritual experience, rather than using money as a way of justifying their existence and personal purpose.
when it comes to the lunar nodes, an example may be as follows: the south node is in the 4h, and the north node in the 10h, perhaps suggesting a future direction towards society and the outside world (north node) by leaving behind the familiar past (south node). the balance here is found in natives leaving their comfort zone and establishing their own values and power in society. rather than following a legacy and values set for them by others, they find their own purpose and legacy. it must be noted, however, that despite these natives leaving their family and legacy behind, they still honour where they came from. they don't completely forget and neglect their roots, but honour them in a way of remembering how their past has helped shape them, and where they shouldn't be returning.
in certain planetary aspects, too, this opposing quality can be seen. mars and venus are the most potent examples because of how aggressive and action-oriented mars is compared to the diplomatic and slow-moving venus. if these two aspect one another in a chart, whether through a conjunction, hard aspect, or a soft aspect, there exists an inherent need to balance the aggressive with the peaceful. the two can be used synergistically to pursue sex and relationships in a way that is driven (mars), rather than overly complacent (venus). similarly, mars can help strengthen the boundaries of easygoing venus, and venus can smoothen the rigidity of mars. the two can work together in a very nice way. of course, in more negative aspects, there may be clashes of personalities, but that's to be found everywhere; the reward of balance, however, is often more noteworthy than the struggle in achieving it. as mars associates itself with assertion, and venus personal values, it could be interpreted that mars-venus aspects actually indicate a defensiveness or possessiveness of one's values. one can assert (mars) oneself's values (venus) in a way that is fair and responsible. this is the whole idea of balance and a great example of how two opposing forces (mars and venus) can have a positive relationship with one another.
with the sun and uranus, there is an opposing factor in the sense of: the ego (sun) craves individuality, whilst uranus craves the collective. it's why leo will always think of its own needs and own methods of self-expression, and uranus will take charge over large groups of people. the two find purpose in different ways, but merged together, create an energy that understands oneself really well (sun) because of how well involved they are with others, which helps them further grow alongside other people (uranus). the ego is strengthened by these principles and this broader concern for humanity, rather than hiding inwards in its own ego (sun).
ignoring these calls for balance will be what lets us down in changing and healing ourselves. we may not get along scorpios because we are a taurus sign, and similarly we may not get along with aries' because we are a libra. these opposing qualities we meet in other people are the qualities we lack in ourselves OR that we look for in other people. it's why our descendent can be so enlightening when finding the type of partner we want to attract. the traits and qualities of our descendent sign will invariably match the sign of our ascendent because these qualities are things we innately seek for in our lives. as an example: for scorpio risings, their descendent will be in taurus; thus they will search for somebody who complements their need for deep and stable love, but will also teach them the value of thinking more materially about things. scorpio risings tend to internalise a lot of things, thus stirring a lot of their feelings up and not being able to physically process them. with the taurus descendent, these partners will offer them a different way of processing and expressing their intense emotions. thus, scorpio risings will learn a lot about their purpose and own lives by engaging with those who are more rational, driven, principled, stable, and physical in nature. it's also why in some synastry charts we may be attracted to certain uranus aspects, for example, or maybe even mars or moon qualities. they may oppose us in some way but they also, more fundamentally, complete us
we should look at all planets and asteroids in our chart and see where our oppositions are. the co-existence of these oppositions are what will further drive us towards changing and healing ourselves so that we achieve the balance we strive for within us ✨
Hii please help me understand my placement better. I have sun in libra 9th house and Aries moon in 3rd house. I feel confused most of the time because of the Sun opposite Moon.
thank you for your ask and I hope you are well.
firstly, the Sun in the 9h tends to be very happy, as the Sun's qualities of ego, purpose, and identity is positively reflected by the 9h's need for purpose, identity, and movement. the Sun will feel more spiritually and emotionally driven here, and you may even feel more spiritually or holistically driven in your life. with a strong desire to understand yourself, others, and the world, your desire for education and learning is positively upheld by your Moon in the 3h. the Sun, however, experiences its detriment in the sign of Libra, meaning the Sun may feel less secure in its identity. typically, a negatively aspected Sun (such as in Libra or opposing the Moon) suffers from identity issues in the sense that you feel more emotionally vulnerable, insecure, and directionless. there is a direct disconnect between your ego self and your emotions. in an ideal scenario, the Sun and the Moon work together to form a harmonious dynamic between one's sense of self and one's emotions. there is a direct structure of feelings and rationale, and pursuing things is easier because there is a mutual understanding of what the ego wants, and what the intuition wants. when this lacks, however, there is an uneasiness about what you genuinely want and feel. you can't express yourself emotionally, and if you try to, you might be the dramatic type that implodes with a variety of different emotions and thoughts at once. with that, your ego itself may feel very vulnerable to what others have to say about you, because you lack the emotional security and personal validation you need for yourself
with the Moon in Aries, you definitely desire freedom and purpose in your life, as well as authority and autonomy. without this freedom, you will feel restricted and bored in your daily routine. Aries wants spontaneity and movement, so maybe you could also work on expressing your emotions better, perhaps through a creative or physical outlet? traveling, exercise, etc.?
I feel with the Sun and the Moon in 9h/3h you possibly lack a real and solid spiritual connection to yourself, so maybe you feel conflicted in your purpose as a person, or you don't feel secure in how you perceive life to be on a spiritual level. maybe you have doubts about who you are or what your purpose is in the world. you could be the type to overthink things, or maybe you are simply just more prone to outbursts or periods of moodiness. I think a good way to overcome this is by investing more time in discovering what it is you want out of life, rather than following social norms. I think with the Moon in the 3h there may be, to some extent, certain social dynamics through the early home or siblings that may have influenced you to live life a certain way. I think you should try and find your own way of living, as well as your own spiritual values and beliefs. this will help you discover what it is you want out of your life, rather than thinking about what you should want
I wish you the best of luck going forward and I hope this answered your ask 👋
hello! you have very interesting interpretations and today i’ve found myself falling down this rabbit hole of your posts 🙂↕️
i got really interested in jupiter and i was wondering if you could share your thoughts on my aspect Jupiter in Cancer 15 degrees 4th house and the vedic version is Jupiter in Gemini 21 degrees 4th house
thank you for your question and I hope you are well.
Jupiter experiences its exaltation in Cancer, meaning it will manifest in its more favourable expressions in the sign of Cancer. this means that you will have an easier time expressing this placement, especially as it sits in the fourth house, or the house naturally ruled by Cancer.
in terms of "expansion", Jupiter in the fourth house can bring spirituality, faith, and travel to natives with Jupiter in the fourth house. it could be interpreted that there is a strong element of religion within the family or at least a very strong belief in the spiritual, occult, or metaphysical. of course, hard aspects to Jupiter could suggest difficulty with faith, such as agnostic or atheistic beliefs, but the overarching understanding here is that there is a very strong and integral element of faith within the family
natives with this placement tend to be very driven family-wise, so they may be very protective of what they term family, but very good natured parents as well. the sign of Cancer is very ambitious and strives to be stable in oneself, so there will definitely be a lot of comfort with Jupiter in Cancer/fourth house. some natives with this placement will honour their family legacy through following their family routines and traditions, and others may even inherit their family business, land, or property
in terms of "fortune", Jupiter in the fourth house could be seen as a favourable placement for going into the domestic scene; so, buying and renting property or generally having good success in things such as interior design or construction. with Jupiter in Cancer, there is fortune to be found by being more nurturing and creative in your life; to have more things that make you feel emotionally happy and secure.
Jupiter in Gemini can generate expansion and/or fortune by being more communicative and observant with the world. there exists a natural curiosity to things, and natives with this placement can definitely generate more success in their lives by tapping into their interpersonal skills and networking with others to upskill themselves and connect with people from different backgrounds. with Jupiter in Gemini, Jupiter will experience its detriment, but will equally experience very enlightening experiences all the same, as the drive for truth, knowledge, and a personal philosophy to relate to will still run quite hot here
15º is a Gemini degree, and so Jupiter in this degree will naturally want to expand itself communicatively, looking for others to network and connect with, all for the sake of learning and expanding one's mind and perceptions. likewise, this placement will want to learn about the self through being more explorative with life, i.e. taking on more risks, being more creative and spontaneous, and wanting to pursue more education. I have seen in some interpretations this degree can be quite fatal in the sense that there is often disabilities with this placement, such as mental or learning disabilities
I hope this answered your question!
#0049 planets through the houses (12h) n.03
the twelfth house or 12h is the house of spirituality, loss, intuition, travel, healing, and our sense of responsibility towards the world as a whole (humanitarianism).
any planets in 12h become spiritual, imaginative, and incredibly gifted, though usually at an expensive cost of loss, trauma, or some form of healing. as both jupiter and neptune rule this house, it may be quite a lucky house, should it be aspected that way, but will, most often than not, pose some form of elusiveness, hurt, or need for healing for individuals that have twelfth house placements.
the twelfth house is an introverted house, even though it is regarded as a day house, thus internalising the planets sitting in this house. where planets in 1h or 5h may become quite social and opportunistic, planets in this house become quite shy, more introspective, and observant, with a huge emphasis on their inner world (emotions, intuition). the twelfth house will always pose a crucial and permanent theme that encompasses a crucial lesson to be learned in this lifetime, though what that lesson is will revolve around how this house is aspected

#0027 planets through the different houses (9) n.01
#0045 planets through the houses: (7h) n.02
the sun in 12h –
if your sun is in the 12h, then your identity will revolve around how you come to understand yourself, others, and the world as a whole, typically through establishing your own faith, intuition, and understanding of your spiritual/religious beliefs. naturally, there may be a fondness for spiritual, religious, or occult teachings, or anything that helps these natives understand life on a more intimate level. it's safe to say they may not be the overly rational type, and instead view life from a multitude of perspectives through personal experiences, knowledge, and other observations. to some extent, this can be a good thing because of how cultured they are in almost anything and everything. in finding meaning through different cultures, traditions, values, beliefs, and knowledge, these natives may find their sense of belonging and identity. for these natives, it's important they feel they understand themselves on a deeply profound level; to understand why they are the way they are, and how they contribute to the world, and what their real purpose within the world is. the issue with this placement, however, seems to be in their tendency to ebb in and out of different beliefs and values, often embodying various characters at once, and never feeling truly at home within themselves. for some, they may live their lives constantly looking for answers to who they are, only to ever find themselves mirroring something disingenuous to them. as a whole, the theme of identity seems to be a vague and elusive thing.
other traits with this placement may be that these natives enjoy traveling and learning from different cultures or backgrounds. they may be the type to attract a lot of foreign people and friends. they could also believe in moving abroad to find themselves. in general, despite being quite introverted, it's very likely these natives will pursue traveling and moving away as a way of discovering themselves. they will most likely pursue their lives alone. despite this, they may find a lot of satisfaction working with others, perhaps in humanitarian or social groups, where they can express their generosity and genuine care for others in a way that is healing to them.
where loss and healing may occur for these individuals may be in their childhoods where, for some, they may have lacked confidence or inner worth as a result of a poor family or environmental dynamic. possibly moving away a lot, or experiencing inconsistencies within the home and friendships, could have caused these natives to retreat and rely on themselves emotionally. despite being emotionally resilient and, in better manifestations, confident in themselves, they may habitually talk down on themselves because of their more negative tendencies of picking on their flaws.
the moon in 12h –
with the moon in the 12h, issues with the mother may arise. on the one hand, the moon in the 12h could symbolise a mother who is deeply spiritual and intuitive in how she lives her life. she may be holistic or very spiritually driven. she may also be humanitarian to some degree, possibly working with humans and animals that are endangered or impoverished. generally, there is a large awareness to the suffering of the world. she may be deeply sensitive and emotional in this regard. in childhood, she may have taught you important values pertaining to your spirituality, religion, or general sense of purpose. she could have been a crucial guide in your life as you grew up. she may have enjoyed traveling or she may have been a foreigner in your birth country. whilst this is an ideal scenario, the moon in the 12h often symbolises something more difficult, though unique all the same.
the moon experiences its loss in the 12h in the form of: the mother dying, being emotionally absent, or being a victim of abuse in some way. the link between the mother may have been severed by life's circumstances that caused you to grow up early. there may have been a moment in your life where you realised you had to rely on your own emotions and initiative. with that, you may have left home early.
personally speaking, the moon in the 12h could suggest a very strong liking for spirituality and religion. one could expect to live a life very holistic and spiritually driven. one could also expect to enjoy traveling and learning through interacting and engaging with others. with very private and mysterious emotions, you are not the type to open up easily to others. you may struggle with controlling your emotions to an extent. in this regard, loss can actually manifest as not understanding your emotions or finding it difficult to connect with your emotions and intuition.
mercury in 12h –
if your mercury is in the 12h, then much of how you think about, process, and believe in things will strongly revolve around the piscean qualities of imagination, creativity, intuition, and spirituality. as mercury experiences its fall in the 12h, natives with this placement may feel as though they have no and all depth to their personalities. on the one hand, they may be very expressive in their beliefs, opinions, and ideas. they may be very empathetic and compassionate in how they perceive things and thus in the ways they express their emotions. this way, people can understand them very easily. this is where the assumption of little to no depth comes from, though mostly in positive interpretations where these natives wear their hearts on their sleeves and have no issue in communicating their feelings and thoughts. on the other hand, these natives may feel somewhat burdened with their feelings and thoughts, perhaps feeling as though they have a huge emotional and spiritual responsibility to understand themselves, others, and the world around them. there may be a habit to both rationalise and to intuitively observe their surroundings, thus suggesting a conflicting energy in how they come to analyse things – logically or creatively. because these natives feel so deeply, they may feel plagued by their never ending thoughts and feelings, and they may overthink a lot, thus causing a lot of mental, emotional, and spiritual stress on themselves. for some, the concept of work and responsibility may be crucial for their happiness – perhaps they feel somewhat pressured to perform a certain way to feel productive in their lives. they may also be highly critical of themselves. in general, however, this placement suggests an intuitive way of thinking and communicating, where these natives are not afraid of confronting their deeper, more intuitive impulses and letting these impulses guide them in their lives.
other traits with this placement may include a fondness for traveling or learning. because this house is ruled by both neptune and jupiter, these natives may enjoy expressing themselves through creative forms of art and self-expression. they may speak their emotions through their words or their careers and hobbies. along with that, they may enjoy learning from different cultures and traditions. there may be a very spiritual perspective on life. in more ideal manifestations, there is a desire for a more spiritual way of living, but this is balanced with a rational and responsible desire for stability and success in life, too.
where loss and healing may occur with this placement may be in these natives understanding very little about themselves, perhaps because they feel so conflicted in their own headspace. their mental, spiritual, or emotional wellbeing may be jeopardised in some way, perhaps through previous experiences that have challenged how they think of and perceive themselves and others. they may lack communicational boundaries, i.e. avoid confrontation because they fear disrupting harmony. in essence, their healing will come from enabling their intuition and taking more action in understanding themselves, rather than letting themselves wallow in despair and self-pity. they must use the power of their creativity, too, as this is what will help them truly express and understand their deeper emotions
Hello! I hope you are doing well! With Neptune and Saturn moving on to Aries, how would that look like in the 7th house? I understand that Saturn moving into 7th house in Aries means being more intentional or serious in developing relationships, but I'm not sure how that looks like with Neptune's energy mixed in. I will also be experiencing my Saturn Return; does that manifest differently from others experiencing these planetary shifts in the 7th house?
Thank you for your time! I'm sure everyone here appreciates your insights!
thank you for your question and I hope you are well.
with a Saturn return, you can definitely expect a different experience to others, especially if they are not going through their Saturn return. it's mainly because your Saturn return will be highly personal to you and your chart, and a lot of your life will change depending on Saturn's placement within the chart as a whole. during a Saturn return, especially if in the 7h, can definitely highlight matters surrounding a marriage or potential relationship, but whether it will be positive or negative, will also depend on the planet's relevant aspects 🤷♀️ some people advice not to go into a relationship before your return, whilst others don't care. some blogs or articles I've seen will say during your Saturn return you will find a new connection or a current connection could be deepening commitment wise, whilst others say there are a tough set of lessons to learn surrounding your relationships, and that a return will definitely call for more responsibility in your life regarding your love matters and even your own personal goals or ambitions
Aries in Saturn in the 7h could definitely pinpoint seriousness towards commitment. there tends to be a very slow-moving, though equally determined and disciplined, energy towards making a relationship last. in this context, an Aries Saturn may definitely be the slow-burn type of love, where commitment comes gradually, but the relationship is deeply passionate and sustainable going forward. of course, more negatively, can highlight the tendency to be insecure in relationships, possibly because there is a lack of purpose from within; there needs to be more drive and stability from within, to make relationships and etc. last longer. for natives with this placement, they may simply lack the confidence or the vision to make things last, simply because they don't know how to sustain their energy in their relationships long-term. anyhow, Saturn in the 7h experiences its exaltation, so Saturn's manifestation tends to be quite easygoing. with Neptune mixed in, however, there may be issues with commitment or with boundaries and personal values, where one's vision of a relationship is blurred for some reason, possibly due to a lack of values or a self–esteem, or maybe it could be as simple as not knowing what one wants in a relationship. I think it also matters if Neptune and Saturn aspect other planets in this case because there may also be more inadvertent influences there
I hope this answered your question and best of luck going forward!
Hi! I have a 5th house Aquarius stellium (Sun + Venus + Jupiter + Uranus) with Venus trine Mars, sextile Saturn and Pluto. Mars retrograde in Libra in the 1st opposes Saturn in the 7th, and Moon in Pisces squares Pluto. I’m almost 30 and mostly had short-term relationships so far. I’d love any thoughts on my love life!
thank you for your question and I hope you are well.
I find Aquarius placements are full of principles and truth, and with you having a stellium in the 5h, it could very well be that you follow a "truth" to your relationships and your own sexuality, but whatever that truth is, is completely dependent on you. with Venus trining Mars and sextiling Saturn, there could be the potential of having very strong boundaries and values here, that you strictly adhere to in all of your relationships. it may also be that there is a strong knowledge of your sexuality, perhaps through previous experiences that taught you how to rely on yourself more. you could have went through dynamics that were codependent or made you feel undermined by your partner(s). as Mars in the 1h opposes Saturn, however, there may be an inconsistency to where you want to pursue your individuality and relationships. there could be a wobbly sense of what you want out of your life; perhaps you feel under pressure in some way, or you feel you have to follow some sort of social mould, to marry somebody. Saturn is exalted in the 7h and Mars experiences its domicile in the 1h, but when these two opposing forces negatively collide, I think it's simply a fact of "do I want to be with me, or do I want to be with somebody?" Mars in Libra typically suggests a lack of trust in what you want, especially when it comes to relationships; you might even attract men who are more feminine or "mawkish"; i.e. they are emotionally elusive and quite hard to pin down. with Mars being in retrograde, there may definitely be a struggle in expressing your individuality to others
with your Sun, Venus, Jupiter, and Uranus in the 5h, there usually is a very deep connection to one's sexuality and creativity, especially as love or sex is used as a way of expressing one's creative drive. you may feel drawn to relationships, casual or not, but also feel impulsive to follow your own way of doing things. the understanding here is clear: you will keep attracting the same low-level experiences until you finally follow your own version of the "truth"; i.e. your principles. what is it that you actually value in relationships, and how do these values reflect in your relationships, if at all? more positively, too, Venus positively aspecting Pluto could very well suggest the potential to have very strong values in your relationships; to take them with seriousness and devotion, should these relationships truly align with what you want out of your life. they should not be seen as a replacement to your individuality, but as a way to improve the quality of your current lifestyle. Uranus in the 5h could suggest a nonconventional approach to your relationships, possibly having a different outlook on relationships as a whole, and finding it difficult to find somebody who can reflect this outlook. on the other hand, however, Uranus and Jupiter in the 5h could suggest a natural inclination to express yourself a certain creative way, but what this way is, will also depend on the signage of these planets. Moon squaring Pluto in the 5h could introduce feelings of uncertainty or anxiety when following or expressing your creative drive. perhaps there are past events, possibly even with the mother, that has altered how you view expressing yourself creatively and sexually to others
thanks for the ask and wishing you the best moving forward! 👋
trusting the process can be hard when things go quiet, as our minds automatically assume something is wrong.
no updates, signs, or visible movement can feel like stagnation. whilst silence feels like absence, that does not have to be the case. quiet phases are integration phases; phases that are indicative of shifts happening beneath visibility. they are the phases that are moving us from where we are to where we want to be.
updates and signs feel reassuring. we want movement because we prefer stimulation. without movement, we feel a loss of direction or progress. a lack of movement creates the feeling of a lack of control, creating a deeper sense of doubt and anxiety. constantly monitoring for change replaces trust in the self and divine. trust is not a feeling, but a decision to remain steady in one's intuition and goals. the decision to remain fixed and determined is what differentiates failures from successes. perseverance and grit are necessary to achieve the things we desire most in our lives; and whilst action makes up a large part of our manifestations and successes, it is the fundamental belief in our direction and ability to attract success that brings us the most abundance.
continuing to stay calm in stillness allows progress to continue, even without being seen
#0048 the importance of the first, fifth, and ninth house in your chart
the first (1h), fifth (leo), and ninth (9h) houses within a birth chart belong to the fire signs (aries, leo, and sagittarius), and represent the spiritual sides to our lives. they exist within the four zodiacal quadrants, with the 1h belonging in the first quadrant, the 5h belonging in the second quadrant, and the 9h belonging in the third quadrant.
quadrants typically have different meanings.
the first quadrant (houses 1-3), for example, is an introspective, impulsive, and identifying energy within us; an energy of self-preservation and compulsive behaviours.
the second quadrant (houses 4-6) is other-oriented and concerns itself with our relationships with others, how we function in our work lives or within friendships, and our our internal wellbeing is reflected in these dynamics.
the fourth quadrant (houses 10-12) is self-formed, authoritative, yet introspective; these are the houses where we establish ourselves in our environments. it’s why these houses are typically referred to as our social calling. it’s the balance of our internal selves vs our external selves.
we may break this down further.
the 1h represents our basic identity and overall purpose; in some contexts, the 1h can also represent the physical body
the 5h represents our creativity and sexuality; how we creatively express ourselves to others, and our sex drive/romantic relationships
the 9h represents our faith or personal philosophy; travel, spirituality, and/or education and knowledge. to some extent, spiritual purpose as well.
the fire houses are usually interpreted as spiritual and creatively driven houses. the fire houses constitute our most basic personal, creative, sexual, and spiritual identities, with all of these identities having their own beliefs, values, and overall purpose. it's clear when the 1h is seen as our physical bodies and appearance, as well as who we are at our core, and where we are headed in our lives. it's also clear when the 5h is seen as the house of creativity and sexuality, where we express ourselves through creative and sexual means, whether that be in the form of actual art, or in the form of romance and children, from which we feel our purpose complete. lastly, identity and purpose are clear in the 9h when faith, religion/spirituality, and travel are concerned, particularly because these are the things that open our materialistic views into the metaphysical, making us question what our real and true purpose is; who are we beyond what we see? as the 9h involves travel and education, these are the things that help educate us on a variety of metaphysical matters that ultimately constitute our broader perception of the meaning of life
whilst all of these are correct, these three houses are very much connected to the other houses of the chart in lesser observable ways. there exists much more to these houses than just the basic appearance, creative drive, and spiritual identity. we can look at these houses more individually and see how they connect with all other houses and elements of the chart.

#0032 the importance of the second, sixth, and the tenth house in your chart
the first house (the cardinal sign of aries) –
the first house is the beginning of the zodiacal wheel, and is oftentimes called the ascendent, rather than the first house. this is the first house of the angular houses. the ascendent refers to our overall life direction as well as our approach to the world. in more modern interpretations, the ascendent is seen as the impressions other people receive from us – how we look and express ourselves to others.
the cruciality of the first house exists as the first house is indicative of our very life force and direction. this is where we find and express our drive to use our physical and mental forces to go through life and achieve all the things we want to achieve. in some respect, the ascendent is our real and true personalities, or who we wish to become as time goes on. the ascendent is our identity; who we relate to, and what kinds of values, boundaries, standards, and experiences we have in our lives as a whole. your ascendent is what you answer with when somebody says, "who are you?"
lacking a knowing in our identity will inevitably cause trouble as we may lack in other areas of our lives, such as in our professional or romantic lives. if someone asks us, "who are you?" and we respond, "I don't know," then there exists no real personality to share or relate to with others. people who have no knowledge of themselves, or a desire to experience things, will lack in strong and defined values and principles because they have no life experience to build their identity and character off of. it's why some people may express some narcissistic traits, whereby they subconsciously pick up on the traits to others, hoping, and possibly believing, that this is who they really are. the reality is that they are not the traits or characteristics they pick up from others, but rather a fake copy of something they wish they could be. likewise, somebody with stronger values will answer, "this is who I am, and this is who I am not" when somebody asks them the same question. this way, the native can give an accurate representation of who they are, what they want, and what they do not want.
when it comes to the seventh house, or the descendent, the first house plays a key role in dismembering two individuals from a partnership. as the first house is an individual house and the seventh house is a dual house, the first house may inevitably run into issues if there exists no knowledge of one's identity. this means if we enter a relationship and have no real trust or knowledge in ourselves, we will simply go with the flow of our partners, possibly losing ourselves in them as we pick up on who they are and what they want, rather than who we are and what we want. this is indicative of a codependent relationships whereby two people rely on each other for emotional support and reassurance, rather than already having emotional stability from within. relationships should be pursued as a healthy addition to one's life, rather than a complete replacement for one's identity or purpose. if we think about how neptune, for example, affects the seventh house, then we may accurately envision a weak first house influencing the seventh house the same way. we may become completely reliant on the attention and validation of others, and our purpose gets lost within the person we are trying so desperately to keep in our lives. if we had a stronger self-esteem or inner worth, these issues would never emerge, because we have strong and dignified values and boundaries that keep us away from these harmful tendencies, and the inevitably loss of self through loving other people.
the location of the first house (ascendent) ruler can help provide an additional insight into the formation of one's identity, and what kind of experiences they will go through in their lifetime – their overall life direction and themes. if the ruler is found in the 5h, for example, then their overall life direction will revolve around the ascendent sign + themes of play, creative expression, love, sex, and so on... meaning a major theme in their life will be the 5h. similarly, the ruler being in the 10h will revolve around the ascendent sign + themes of work and society (social status), money, the father, and so on... meaning a major theme in their life will be the 10h. in all cases, however, the ruler of the first house being in (x) house will help direct natives to where they should be in their lives, or where they wish to be.
the connection the first house has with the fifth house and ninth house is in this way: all three houses are connected to purpose, ambition, and intuition. the first house is one's cognisance of the identity; the fifth house is the individual creative expression of it; and the ninth house is the further divine exploration of the identity. as the first house is domicile in aries, whatever planet is in this house will exhibit more arian qualities, with those being more spontaneous, driven, and self-aware.
hey your descendant post was really nice to read!! I wanted to ask you about which placements sort of lie to themselves about what they’re feeling without realising they are lying to themselves? Like in their head they think they know what they’re feeling but there’s a disconnect between their words and actions because they’re not being truthful to themselves..
thank you for your question and I hope you are well.
this can be a tricky one because people are influenced by a lot of things, and there will always be factors that ultimately affect how people think, especially as it may pertain to what they think they want.
I think as a whole, significant Venus, Neptune, or water placements can definitely manifest as elusive or not cohesive in their overall desires.
Venus or Neptune aspecting the seventh house, for example, may over-idealise love or sex. in more negative aspects, these two forces can become very delusional in love, possibly forming an array of wishes and expectations in their minds that are simply impossible to match up to. with that, Neptune over the Ascendent may suggest a lack of trust or realism within oneself, and this could inevitably affect the quality of their relationships. I would love to say the Moon too, but I think the Moon would try and look for reassurance and protection more than an idealised image of love. likewise, I think Pisces in a compromising position, whether over the 7h or even the 5h, could introduce some level of delusion.
Jupiter tends to add an inflated sense of whatever it touches, so I definitely think Jupiter over the fifth or seventh houses, or in aspects to planets such as Venus, Mars, or Neptune, can inflate what relationships mean to oneself. there is a natural pride that comes with relationships but also a tendency to almost worship love as something more godly than it really is. moreover, this placement tends to lose its realistic footing as it struggles actually maintaining a level ground for love, i.e. failing to compromise on things, or being overly delusional about things, having very high standards and values that are unrealistic, and attaching a divine element to love and one's partners that are untrue, all for the sake of seeking some form of redemption or justification for that specific relationship
a lack of strength in one house can inadvertently cause a lack of strength in another house. it may be that an afflicted Saturn in the 12h or 4h has put pressure on a Moon or Venus in the 2h, 1h, or 7h, thus making the native feel more reliant on their feelings, and perhaps lacking the emotional strength to actually follow and express these emotions clearly... thus without any sort of emotional restriction, they are more likely to act out on emotions that, in the moment, feel right, but are not right at all. double points if Mars is also added into the mix, as there will be a more impulsive and emotionally charged approach to things. this can be a good thing at times, but overall, can be hugely misleading or negative, as the native may drive themselves towards things they don't actually want to be in, all because they were so caught up in a dream they were so certain about
I hope this answered your question and I wish you the best! 🤗
#0047 your imum coeli ruler in the different houses
the imum coeli, or the fourth house, makes up one of the four angular points in the birth chart, directly opposing the midheaven, or the tenth house. where the ascendent represents our individual identity, the descendent represents our duality in our relationships; where the imum coeli represents our inner family circle and childhood, the midheaven represents our social standing and our careers. the imum coeli, or the fourth house, then, is a very significant energy in our charts, as this angular point represents our relationship with our mother and our early family dynamics. where the ruler of the fourth house is, can help determine some underlying aspects that further affect and/or influence this fourth house.
to find your fourth house ruler means finding the ruler of the sign of your fourth house. if your fourth house is ruled by pisces, for example, then your fourth house ruler will be neptune. if ruled by aries, then mars. if scorpio, then your fourth house ruler will be both mars and pluto. your fourth house ruler will always oppose your tenth house ruler and, together, they make up a significant fraction of the relationship between the past and future.
this post will analyse fourth house rulers in general; it will not include single planetary rulers.

when the fourth house ruler falls in the first house –
with the fourth house ruler falling in the first house, much of how these natives perceive themselves will surround their early family dynamics. for some, they may have felt their identity overlooked or undermined in some way, perhaps because the household was, to some extent, very controlling with how these people expressed their individuality and/or independence. maybe these natives felt very aware of their bodies (and perhaps even sexualities) and just how influential their family is on them. growing up, they may have struggled with asserting themselves or following their own path.
with more positive aspects, there may have been a very uplifting dynamic wherein their independence was positively reinforced with support from their family. the extremity of this placement can range, but usually these natives learn, or have to learn, a lot about following their own path in life, and establishing their own values and principles based on their experiences with their family. this also means that, for some, they may completely disregard their families when older because of the newfound freedom they have, that they never had when younger. with that, there may be feelings of wanting to leave the home early to find oneself. whatever the case may be, these individuals definitely perceive themselves a certain way because of how they grew up. their self-esteem will vary depending on their experience with the mother
when the fourth house ruler falls in the second house –
with the fourth house ruler falling in the second house, much of how these natives perceive their personal values and own approach to money and material things will stem from their childhood dynamics, most notably if their mother was absent or involved in their development in this regard. some natives experience a good and stable financial dynamic within the household but lack immaterial values and a sense of understanding of oneself. this means that despite having their needs taken care of, they don't actually have any real values or sense of worth that extends beyond material meaning. it may also mean that they intentionally pursue material things thinking it gives them the validation they want. for others, they may have had a solid household dynamic wherein their creative and emotional needs were fulfilled, and thus understood themselves well, and have very strong values as a result of their childhood experiences.
some natives with this placement have a strong attachment to their family home, especially if the home was positive. they may be tied to their material things, possibly having very fond memories of their younger years and relatives. if the moon is here, for example, there most likely exists a very emotional attachment to the mother or the early childhood, where nostalgia is very strong
when the fourth house ruler falls in the third house –
with the fourth house ruler falling in the third house, education and/or knowledge becomes of paramount importance. there may be an element of foreign-ness here, possibly due to the family being foreigners or from a different political background. there seems to be an emphasis on education and knowledge because this is what the family terms as important, and these natives inevitably start believing in good grades, high academic performance, and so on. depending on what planet the ruler is in, there may be different influences here also, as jupiter can sometimes suggest being a part of a monastery or going to a religious school; uranus can suggest being home schooled, so on and so forth. the understanding here however is that school makes up a good chunk of the family dynamic. along with that, the fourth house ruler in the third usually suggests a close relationship with siblings; perhaps siblings were very important to the upbringing of these natives in some way.
travel may be seen here, though is often more emphasised in the ninth house, as the ninth house is more indicative of foreign travel. still, however, the third house is still representative of movement, and natives with this placement may have travelled a lot or shown interest in cars, planes, etc., or even writing and education, which is something they may pursue in their own families going forward
when the fourth house ruler falls in the fourth house –
with the fourth house ruler falling in the fourth house, family definitely becomes an integral part of these natives and who they are. most commonly, these natives continue their legacy going forward, possibly even being part of a family business or career lineage that honours their heritage and/or family history/reputation. there generally is a tight closeness within the family, though this will depend on the planet in the fourth house. if negatively aspected in some way, there may be strife or conflict within the home, that has deeply impacted these natives in their own perceptions of family. the mother may have been very important to the upbringing of these natives, often having an umbilical-like connection with her, and whether this be through love or trauma will, again, depend on the natives' own experiences
there can be a matter of wanting to stay at home for a long time or wanting to maintain a similar family dynamic as these natives grow older. they typically have strong views on marriage and family, good or bad, but will act accordingly to their experiences in childhood. how they view children, to some extent, will also stem from their experiences in childhood. more positively, however, there tends to be a deeply profound connection with the mother or within the family; she may be wise, perhaps, or just very knowledgable, and this is something these natives appreciate in their own lives
I was watching some videos on sedna in gemini and her conjunction with uranus in gemini in june of 2026 that will follow into july 2027.
as sedna is representative of very deep change, I think collectively, she will have an impact on our communicational and technological affairs. her orbit is only around 11,500 years, meaning she has never come this close to the earth since the neolithic era! so her impact for this coming season will be felt. I think with the release of "the files" last year, and with the alien information coming out, there will most likely be more on the way regarding similar things.
natally, I think we should look to where sedna and uranus is in the chart. I think where sedna is will tell a lot about where we will experience change and transformation for the next year or so. changes to our career, love life, school life, or social life will be impacted, but in a way that is more evolutionary and smooth, than something like pluto, which would be something more sudden or mournful.
what do we think?
Hi! I hope you’re doing well. I wanted to ask if you do birth chart readings?
I can answer any question you have through the asks or through my messages, but if you want a full chart reading you can always buy one with me on ko-fi!
a general reading will give a brief overview of your chart and planets, ranging anywhere from five to even ten pages. more comprehensive readings will give a more in-depth review of your chart, planets, aspects, strengths, and weaknesses; this can range from anywhere to 35-40 pages. 🤗 thanks!
i‘m not sure if you already have posts about this, but what can you say about afflicted venus?
my venus is exactly conjunct lilith and pluto in the second house. it squares saturn in the 11th house and uranus in the 5th house, venus is in a tsquare here. (few good aspects aswell tho like sextile to neptune and moon).
i wonder how a venus like this with heavy aspects affects/shows up in one‘s love life or attraction?
thank you for your question and I hope you are well.
Venus conjuncting both Lilith and Pluto could suggest issues with your sexuality in the sense of: you might simply not know your real orientation, or maybe you feel ashamed of your sexuality, or perhaps you just don't understand your sexual identity well. it may be that you are actually very aware of your sexual identity, perhaps through youth where you were potentially exposed to an environment that promoted sexual things. as a whole, this combination in the 2h could suggest issues with your personal values and sexuality; maybe you lack concrete sexual values to relate to, and maybe you have a poor self–esteem as a result. maybe you tend to attract relationships that polarise you in some way, perhaps making you believe you want a relationship but actually don't because they make you feel restricted or because you have issues embracing your sexuality and confidence. I think this combination can manifest in a variety of ways, but the overall consensus here is that your sexuality will be of question here, and more particularly how you express it in your relationships. Saturn in the 11h may suggest feeling lonely or overlooked in society, perhaps difficulty making friends; Uranus in the 5h could suggest wanting to embrace your creativity and sexuality, but feeling restricted or at a loss in how you should, and who with
I have also observed with Venus aspecting Lilith or Pluto that there usually comes an abuse of one's sexuality, either by having one's sexuality abused or using one's sexuality to seduce and/or abuse others. just some very toxic sexual experiences here in general
if past dynamics are of any relevance, particularly the childhood home, Lilith conjuncting Venus could suggest early issues surrounding your sexuality and general femininity. you may struggle embodying your "divine feminine" because it is wounded in some way. conjuncting Pluto, there often is a series of lessons and transformations you will learn pertaining to your personal values and sexuality as you experience more and more relationships that try and liberate you from your comfort zone (Uranus in the 5h). you may be the picky type with your relationships but almost to the point of completely ostracising yourself from certain experiences. if on the contrary, you may be very insecure and jeopardise your own self–esteem to please others, almost like you are trying to prove your worth somehow to other people
some other "side effects" from an afflicted venus could be: attracting or being attracted to insecure people, being the "healer" for wounded people, or looking for people to heal you; also, trust issues, codependent patterns, or power dynamics between you and others may also arise
I always see Pluto-Venus aspects as relationships with a Plutonian nature, like these relationships will always embody some level of obsessiveness, control, and lust. perhaps your relationships are very intense in nature. whilst the Venus-Lilith-Pluto combination suggests a very strong sex appeal and beauty, you may inadvertently misuse it to get your way OR simply not utilise it enough because you are insecure deep inside. more positively, Venus aspecting the moon and Neptune could suggest a very imaginative and caring personality, especially in love, where you seek to care and provide for others; ideally, you are in tune with your sexuality and emotions, and you have a broad awareness of your partner's needs. you will attract relationships based on solid boundaries and values. negatively, you will attract partners that validate your insecurities and make you feel more secure in yourself, especially if material or financial matters are involved. there may be, to some extent, a refusal to change because of how ingrained some beliefs are. relationships will continually present similar lessons if you do not learn the first time round. if there are any negative experiences from childhood that are not acknowledged and healed, they may also show up in your relationship dynamics. as a whole, however, I think with Uranus in the 5h, there is a more innate rebellious energy that wants to embrace its more unconventional creative and sexual energies. there is simply a lack of understanding what one wants on a sexual and creative level, to express oneself more authentically
I hope this answered your question and I wish you the best!
#0046 when planets have no aspects
we always see interpretations of planets and asteroids with aspects, but what about those with none? does a planet or asteroid have any more or less influence is they have no aspecting bodies? planets and asteroids with no aspects can be interpreted differently, with a different energy field to those planets or asteroids that do have aspects
to have an unaspected planet is quite uncommon because of how imperative it is for a planet to be aspected in some way, either through minor aspects, a connection with the angles of the chart, midpoints, and so on. but to say a planet is unaspected is to say that the planet in question has no real major aspects within a reasonable orb to influence its energy. the general understanding with this topic is that planets or asteroids with aspects have a more controlled expression of energy. soft aspects will encourage harmony between planetary bodies. hard aspects will discourage harmony because of the conflict that arises when these two opposing personalities meet. on their own, however, these planetary bodies will most likely have no real expression of energy, apart from their signage and house. astrology may feel that whilst not necessary weak, these unaspected planets do not integrate easily with other components of the chart because of differing and often conflicting qualities that clash; yet at the same time, remain very distinctive in their nature because of how "individual" they are compared to those placements with major aspects and influences.
what is the better way? it depends on personal opinion. with a planet with no aspects, it's apt to concentrate its energy in one emphasised area. there are no blending of principles or qualities that elevate its innate expression. whilst the planet is encouraged to express itself more clearly, there still exists a lack of connection with other, more influential energies within the chart.
if we take the sun and uranus, for example, and see just how influential an aspect between these two can be. with the ego (sun), there exists a need for a personality to relate to. there needs to be a set of personal values, boundaries, and principles to relate to. there needs to be something that "lets me know this is who I am and can guide me to my real purpose and self." there is a real need for meaning and justification in life. without an ego or personality to relate to, the sun may feel very purposeless and not driven to achieving anything. life simply lacks meaning. if aspected by uranus, for example, there comes a real drive to establishing one's presence because of how objective and humanitarian one becomes. the sun believes its purpose is found through its relationships with others, more particularly the collective, where it can express its desire for knowledge and justification. suddenly the sun becomes hugely principled and finds its truth by expressing itself in its communities. it becomes individual, totally bound by its strong belief in the self. these aspects can be hard or soft, and reaching this totally individual state can largely depend on other aspects and influences. but for simplicity, the existing aspects to both can help identify other themes and influences that help shape the other.
if it was the case that the sun stood on its own with no real aspects in the 11h, for example, it could mean that the sun is largely influenced by its social groups. there could be a vastly general feeling of purpose, and maybe these people express vaguely uranian qualities. without aspects, the sun is not encouraged to express itself in a multifaceted manner of aspected planets (i.e. using mercury to express its ideas, or maybe mars to encourage movement and action), but in a way that is very narrowly focused. there's no real drive in achieving something specific, but maybe a focus around the collective and social groups only, which give these natives a satisfactory meaning to life. on the surface this sounds great, but turning more inwardly, this may suggest that these natives have no real internal connection to their own intuition and sense of purpose of self-expression, meaning they tend to follow the rules of others, and seem to think and participate in a collective hive mind. add mars or pluto to the mix and you have somebody who is driven to enact change and create healing for others, perhaps through advocacy groups. add mercury to the mix and you have somebody with objective and creative skills. the identity becomes one with multiple layers; there is a lot more depth this way.
if we take a look at mercury and analyse the way in which we think and express our opinions, we will see our mercury is largely influenced by its signage and house AND its aspects surrounding it. mars, for example, encourages a more spontaneous and robust way of thinking. negatively aspected, there may be some element of anger issues or an easily irritable nature. more positively, this aspect can create a very driven and determined learner; somebody who wants to excel in education and in the communication realm. somebody who has good networking skills and can easily make friends wherever they go. this energy of action further motivates mercury to act more driven and principled; to be more action-oriented towards things, and to be more challenging in the sense of, questioning different opinions and reasons for why. if mercury is aspected by venus, there comes a very impartial and lovely way of thinking about things; these natives want peace and harmony, and will think very positively, in general. thus when our mercury-venus is expressed we may be more social and optimistic in nature. mercury on its own, however, will have no real depth to its thinking; it may be impartial, but also very boring. different planetary aspects offer a diversity of interests, opinions, and beliefs that can enrich the way these natives approach life. as a whole, an unaspected mercury can feel disconnected from their own mental sphere, and in their social sphere with others, where they might operate in a hive mind process.
things can get a lot more nuanced with planets such as jupiter, neptune, and pluto are concerned. for one, jupiter is a hugely expansive planet, with a desire to broaden and understand something on a more philosophical level. the house and signage of jupiter may suggest where in our lives this expansion happens. when jupiter is harshly aspected there may be difficulty in asserting the balance between delusion and reality as there often exists a compulsive need to go big or go home. it's why gambling is such a popular interpretation of jupiter. when jupiter has no real aspects, this desire for expansion can get out of hand and traverse a multitude of areas in life that don't need expansion. things can get dramatic really quickly. if jupiter's energy was to be focused in one area only, there would be a lot more success. when jupiter is aspected by something, say venus or the moon, there is a desire to understand oneself and others emotionally; the family or friend groups will be big, because this is where these natives find their purpose and emotional fulfilment. it's what spiritually completes these people. with uranus, the jupiter may find spiritual fulfilment in being more humanitarian and traveling. there seems to be an innate desire for more principles, education, and knowledge. experience, as a whole, is what's being sought for by these planets. this co-existence can work in a very positive and profound way where these energies are mixed and used in a way that is clear and cohesive.
if we take venus and mars, we can see this partnership work out miraculously well, despite being opposing forces. without aspects, venus tends to be very submissive and emotional. there is a difficulty in forming a concrete romantic identity or sexuality. there will be a leniency on peace and harmony; action will be seen as disruptive. laziness will be the default living arrangement for this planet. if aspecting mars, then, there may be a desire for peace, yes, but mars will move and act to create this harmony and peace. the sexuality will be defined because of how these natives understand and express their sexualities. their relationships will be more passionate and driven because of how mars and venus compliment one another. where mars craves action and fire, venus wants peace and consistency. with the two, they work together to create a very stable, yet passionate, duo. if mars has no aspects, this energy will simply be too difficult to handle, and there will be a lot of misdirected energy and focus. mars, depending on its house, will have some form of direction; but without the correct stimuli (such as uranus, the sun, or moon) there exists no real purpose or "challenge" that enacts change from within. when mars is negatively aspected there is tremendous difficulty in doing something or getting somewhere but, with the right perseverance and determination, the fight is always worth it. harsh aspects are crucial to building oneself, which a lack of aspects totally counteracts.
the presence of aspects can truly help gauge the challenges and the gifts we have in our lives. harsh aspects will always show where the character development is; where we might experience the most difficulty, but also where the most amount of reward exists. softer aspects show us the natural gifts and rare qualities we have; what works for us naturally, and how we can use these soft aspects to our advantage. a lack of aspects can, in one way, be a good thing; in another, however, be very misdirected, purposeless, and simply difficult to access.
