SunAscendant | This girl who is new to astrology insists that I, someone who has studied astrology for awhile doesn't know what natural houses are. She said she's a Cancer rising and has Venus in Aquarius which means Venus is in her 11th and I told her that Venus is in her 8th not 11th, her 11th is Taurus. As a Cancer rising myself and someone who knows way more than her I think I know the BASICS of astrology. Smh just because you have an Aquarius Venus doesn't mean it's in the 11th house; Aquarius NATURALLY rules the 11th but in her Cancer rising chart it is in her 8th house because Aquarius is the 8th house for a Cancer rising smh. Stupid b*tch. I'm ****** when people try to dispute me on basic astrology you learn on day 1. |

JourneysRoar | She is right though. The natural house system puts Aries on the ascendant, therefore Aqua is the natural ruler of the 11th house. If she is a Cancer rising, Aqua rules her natal 8th possibly, but that doesn't negate the natural house system. |
hypatia238 | Yes but it doesn't mean she has venus in aquarius in the 11th house, she has it on the 8th. |
Selenite | Lol this is when I realize I know way too much about astrology so I just nod and smile and try to do something else with my time for a while.. Used to happen to me all the time haha (Also not saying it's bad to know about astrology but it has pretty much nothing to do with my life goals and I spend a lot of time thinking about it) |
JourneysRoar | Yes, you're right. I misunderstood what was being conveyed. My apologies. |

Yes I realize her having Venus in Aquarius also have a flavoring if you will of an 11th house Venus since Aqua naturally rules the 11th, but as a Cancer rising Aqua is her 8th house, so in her chart Venus is situated in the 8th house but has the very subtle influence of an 11th Venus because of it being in Aquarius. The girl was trying to say that Aquarius was not in her 8th even though she kept saying she was a Cancer rising; I mentioned that Cancer was the first house meaning the 8th is Aquarius. I told her that I was also Cancer rising and gave her an example. My sun is in Taurus and for a Cancer rising to have a Taurus sun that means that the sun is in the 11th house (using the basic Placidus house system and not whole houses); sure Taurus naturally rules the 2nd but being Cancer rising I have Leo on my 2nd not Taurus, so I told her in my example that my Sun is in Taurus in the 11th house but also has a light flavoring of it as if it were a 2nd house Venus. |

Lol no hah. I just saw her post it on Twitter. She mentioned in her post that she didn't understand astrology, so that's why I attempted to help her understand her Venus placement. She didn't post her chart though. |
