Hi I'm a Virgo and I was wondering if you could tell me about Sun signs and Moon signs cause I never really understand them. I was born August 29th, 1994 at 12:13 AM.
Hello! I’m going to be using you as an example here. Hope you don’t mind.
How to interpret your birth chart:
Step 1: Input your birth information
Using this link, you can find the placements of the planets in your horoscope. You can use other sites, but I’ve found that this site is easy to use and understand. You’ll come across a page that looks like this:
There, you need to input your date and location of birth, and if you have it, the time that you were born.
Since the location of birth was not given, I decided to choose NYC.
Step 2: Find your birth chart wheel
Once you click the “next” button, an interactive birth chart wheel should appear, that looks a little like this.
Step 3: Interpreting each of the planets
This wheel not only shows the sun, moon, and the rest of the planets, but also shows the Ascendant/rising sign (determined by the time of birth). We can see that the asker’s moon is in the sign of Gemini. You can click on every planet shown for an interpretation. For instance, if I scroll down, I will see Anonymous’ Virgo sun.
If I click on the Sun’s symbol- the orange circle (ignore the rest of the symbols for now), an interpretation comes up for Sun in Virgo, as well as a description of what the Sun means and represents in your horoscope.
You can find descriptions for the rest of the planets: from Mercury through Pluto. Here’s another example description of Moon in Gemini.
Step 4: Finding your aspects
Once you’ve thoroughly explored the planets’ descriptions, you can start to take a look at the aspects each planet makes. You can tell this by the lines connected between each planet: red lines indicate tension and growth, blue lines indicate inborn talents and ease of expression.
In addition, whenever you click on a planet, there is a list of the aspects it makes. For instance, with Anonymous’s Sun in Virgo:
The Sun (ego, vitality, persona) is square (in conflict) with the moon (emotions, private side)- this can make for difficulty in self-expression, but if this is worked through, can make for a creative and adaptable person.
The Sun (ego, vitality, persona) is sextile (in harmony) with Jupiter (luck, expansion, opportunity). This is a very easy area of expression, and makes for a person who has an optimistic view on life, can easily try out new things, and therefore seems to be very lucky.
This applies with all the planets- and if you’d like, you can fully explore your aspects in a reading here.
Have fun exploring your chart~

the pantheon of modern witchcraft in music:
Stevie Nicks: The grand high witch, the regent of the coven. She oversees all and always will. Immortal and full of all-knowing wisdom, initially peaceful but also can (and will) kick your ass.
Florence + The Machine: Channels nature energy but isn’t afraid to dabble in the dark. Often found wandering through misty forests and open fields of goldenrod, singing lost tales of tortured spirits. Talks with Demeter from time to time.
Hozier: May be possessed by the spring goddess side of Persephone. Spends most of his time in the mossy bogs in the realm of the fae. Sometimes reappears in the human world for brief periods of time, spreading fae wisdom to the humble masses before leaving again.
Zella Day: Modern witch caught between rural and urban magic. Cavorts in the dry, desert planes of the Southwest. Frequently surrounded by crystals and succulent plants. Wears a lot of maxi dresses, wide hats, and combat boots.
AURORA: Actual dryad tree spirit. Lives deep in the woods whispering ageless melodies into waterfalls. Lives at one with nature and is friends with the deer and the wolves. Thrives off of empathy and kindness. Has plans to build a paradise haven for the exiled and rejected peoples of the world.
Zolita: Love witch, harnesses passion and desire for the forces of good. Full of sapphic energy and communicates with Aphrodite. Leader of a badass coven of LGBTQ+ witches and a slowly brewing feminist rebellion.
Elsa & Emilie: The spirits of Victorian witches reincarnated into younger forms. Literally mature beyond their years. Sing haunting harmonies of their lives and loves wrongfully lost. Reach their ultimate power when working together. Aren’t afraid to venture into the dark.
Lorde: Urban witch with untapped chaotic energy. Also mature beyond her years. Is still restless but now channels strong emotions. Uses synesthesia to literally see the spells. Kicks back with Athena from time to time.
Lana Del Rey: Fluctuates between light and dark witchcraft. Uses love magic but will also curse you. Talks to both Harmonia and Eris, also the devil. Keeps a grimoire passed down for generations in her purse.
Lola Blanc: Witch that managed to travel from an alternate jazz age steampunk timeline. Utilizes technological innovation in form mixed with traditional technique. May or may not have performed necromancy and hypnotism.
Banks: Perhaps the most chaotic dark witch of them all. Probably possessed by the queen of the dead side of Persephone, or maybe Hecate. Channels powerful energy from storms, lust, and conflict. Has a soft side she rarely lets anyone see.
That ended up a hella long. Did I miss anyone?
I recently started listening to Florence and the Machine and damn I love it!
Children playing with Barbies in media: “This is Sally. She’s the mommy. She loves fashion, swimming, and she drives a convertible! She has a baby with Ken and sometimes they kiss.” OR “Look, I ripped Barbie’s head off! Ha ha ha! I’m a boy.”
Children playing with Barbies in real life: “This is Aurora, the fallen goddess of the sky. She has been banished from her kingdom and bound to a mortal body by her sister, who rose to power by human sacrifices. She now leads an army of cannibal water spirits who eat men. Sometimes they have orgies. They dismembered a traitor and keep her head on a Popsicle stick as a warning to others. Aurora can turn into a wolf and uses battle magic to paralyze her enemies. The king of the stuffed animals developed rabies and she had to slay him to save his people, but they do not understand that it was an act of mercy and kindness and are sending assassins after her for regicide. This is Aurora’s soulmate, Crystal, but her soul is trapped in a gemstone while an evil spirit pilots her body and attempts to murder her friends.”
