I barely look at those. Save for Juno/Chiron lol . But for now let me start with the Sun to Mars.
The Asc is the outer energy one expresses that is the "being" of the individual. And is not controlled or can be turned "off". It just is.
It is the 1st impression people get when they interact with you and is known as the 1st house energy. Any planets near the 1st house will influence its expression and mitigate what is said below;
Asc in Scorpio- The default face one has with this energy on the Asc is viewing things with X-ray vision.
To this Asc there is always more than just what is apparent. And what is hidden always matters more than what is showing.
To others you appear like you are distrusting, snoopy and even invasive because they feel like you try to get " under" their skin when in truth you want to get to know their hidden selves which you are convinced is their "true" identity.
You yearn to bond deeply with others but ironically sometimes the energy you put off can be off-putting to those who are more casual with people and are not looking to "bear their soul" etc. Or even those who are shy,timid and self conscious.
So with these types you can loathe interactions with them as it seems insincere and shallow(especially the former). Because you see them as "weak" and unable to face their true selves etc.
Mars and Pluto rule the Asc. And so the planet Mars and Pluto sign energies are important.
Mars is in Gemini- mental agility, ability to think on one's feet, can create a nervous disposition, easily rattled, very busy mental process and restless when doing nothing. Always enjoys having more than one iron on the stove.
Gemini Mars has a sharp wit,mimicking skills and a dicey tongue. Enjoys a lively debate, wordplay and clever comebacks. Its a lively Mars that can be an intellectual and industrious powerhouse who is very popular with others. But also quite argumentative when roused.
Your DSC is the opposite of your Asc and speaks of the people who are instinctively drawn to you because of the energy you put out(Asc).
The DSC energy often draws close partners,friends, relatives you are close with and romantic/marriage partners.
Again,planets on the Dsc cusp will affect the type of people whom you are drawn to & colour the nature of relationships you have.
Your Dsc is Taurus.
You tend to draw in or be attracted to steady, dependable types who are the same today, tomorrow and always.
You tend to dislike surprises in relationships or any upheavals. So the more you get to know someone, the more you favour peaceful relations between you and them(especially when they have 'revealed' their soul to you)
You are not one to chop and change close relations and will often keep long held contacts for years(even when they don't really serve you to keep them).
So being a bit of a hoarder,possessive of close friends or partners is likely as you do consider them valuable and "yours". And you fear loss of both the psychological and tangible kind.
Many times your partners in marriage tend to be concerned about their security financially So its likely that an attraction to someone who is doing well money-wise is strong.
That kind of resource suggests SECURITY to you (which is important in your close relationships and love prospects)
You are no " gold digger". But you do expect your partner to be able to take care of you (sexually or financially. But ideally both)
The ruler of the Dsc in Taurus is Venus in Cancer.
Venus rules relationships, attractions,money, pleasure, how we show affection, our creative outlets,and all that you think is beautiful.
While the Dsc deals with people we attract from an instinctive,default level. Venus deals with those attractions that we are conscious of or invite purposely
Venus is in Cancer and this suggests that the nature is one that is sensitive to the needs of others in relationships
One often acts as a maternal mother figure and fusses a lot on those they care about around them through cooking for them, cleaning after them or attending to their emotional well-being.
It can suggest an attraction to sensitive people(with the addition of the Dsc energy). But also the inclination to dress in a manner that is more classic, vintage and traditional than flashy.
Cancer Venus can be the type who loves traditional roles in relationships and can prefer for the mate to assume a somewhat rigid role of provider/caretaker.
Moon in Taurus- The Moon speaks of our emotional perspective on life and subjective life experience.
The Moon rules our emotional mind and how we not only expect others to nurture us. But also how we nurture or self soothe.
When in Taurus, it is exalted (well placed) and speaks of emotions being stable, steady and controlled(without being stifled like Cap Moon).
When Taurus is here we expect nurture to come in the form of tangibles or stuff. So Taurus Moon can be a collector i.e the more stuff they have, the more secure they feel.
So this "stuff" could be assets, a stable job with a steady income, a wealthy spouse, a regulated routine, an allowance etc.
Taurus Moon believes in a comfortable life and as long as that is not tampered with, they are the epitome of serenity,calm and peace.
However should there be disturbances on that front(loss of income, spouse or "stuff"), the nature can progressively get insecure, agitated and even downright violent.
A long walk in peaceful nature is sometimes much of what Taurus Moon needs to assure them that all is well and that the absence of " stuff" is not the beginning of chaos. That all is still well with the soul.
The phrase "Be still and know that I am God" and "It is well with my soul" could have been written for a Taurus Moon. Lol.
I will return to do the Sun and Mercury soonest. Meanwhile ,digest what is said above and tell me what ya think.
