I do not have a house ruled by Pisces. Capricorn is the ruler of my 4th and 5th house... Aquarius rules my 6th house...Pisces is squashed in the middle of my 6th house and my 7th is ruled by Aries.

I have no planets in Pisces either.

Is this lack of Piscean influence/rulership the reason I'm attracted to Pisces men? Maybe I'm drawn to them because I'm lacking Pisces in my chart?

Aquarius and Leo, opposites attract, eh?

I think that I am so opposite with an Aquarius that I get obsessivly fascinated with them.

Thats exactly what I mean with the crushing I was talking about! Heheh.

My partner has all that I lack, I'm very spiritual and very loving, he is very worldy, historic, political, and very enlightened to many worldy truths, which is what I lack upstairs, and he is very much like my estranged father.

So yup! That's why! He's my opposite, it's like im love and he's light. It's so gorgeous. I just imagine both of us combined into one being, how magnificant I feel that would be...
Well that's true anyway, my twin-self and I, are inevitably One.
He's the Yin of my Yang, or vice versa.

For example, my Grandparents, married 50 yrs happily, were Cancer Moon, and Aries Moon, I am Cancer Moon, guess what I always choose?

I remember them so clearly, the way they would interact, we choose a person we identify with and idealize that person's ideal mate,

If that person was unhappy and always cheating, we end up in a triangle of our own,

You can control what you absorb,
Don't worry,

Of course, nobody consciously does it... sh*t, do you think I would have married a tightwad, incessant nagger, who always has to be right even when he's absolutely wrong, JUST LIKE MY MOTHER, consciously?

LMAO! No way! If someone has explained all this to me, my reaction would have been just like yours... "kill me now!"... LOL!

me, this is what ive noticed: im always attracted to aquarians, as i have aquarius on my 5th house cusp in addition to my venus residing there. and with mars in capricorn, im stimulated sexually by earth signs like cap, virgo or taurus. reinforcing this is taurus on my 8th house cusp. virgo seems to be really good for me because if i meet a virgo sun (and im dating one now), his virgo sun is opposite my pisces sun, and trine my mars in cap and my 8th house taurus cusp. my moon & mars being in the 3rd house helps to reinforce that air thing with me - along with aquarians, i love geminis. libra is also good because that's my ascendant. i also have a number of asteroid placements in gemini - juno, psyche, and anteros.

You know... It never occured to me to look to Neptune Chrissy, as dumb as that sounds! It's in the 3rd house (Sag) conjunct Venus. Could this conjunction be part of the puzzle?

I have to check for aspects to Uranus too, because what just occured to me is that with the three Pisceans... It was always a lightening bolt attraction. It felt fated from the moment I laid eyes on each of them, lol (yes, I'm aware of how that sounds... retarded... but its true). Like with my high school sweet heart, then I eloped with Pisces #2 and now this thing, this big huge thing has evolved out of nowhere with Pisces #3. Ok, I don't know about Uranus, but that's something I thought of.

and YES, that venus-neptune conjunction is a big deal. venus conjunct neptune can act like a venus in pisces. and venus is incredibly important in your chart - it's your ruling planet (libra ascendant, right?)! so the aspects your ruling planet (the planet that rules your ascendant) makes take on a special importance. placed in the 3rd house, is it? it would add a need for communication...venus conjunct neptune in the 3rd house says "i need to communicate" when involved in a relationship.

i have a great book on aspects, ill have to bring it up to work this week and give you some more info.

OK, i just checked your uranus and it is in the 2nd house (not in the 5th like i was thinking), but it ASPECTS mars in the 5th...a quintile. this is potentially important. mars does have to do with sexual expression and attraction, and placed in the 5th house in aspect to uranus...you get the picture (i hope). oh! and your uranus is singleton. only water sign in your planetary chart.

"Well, I’m gonna sit down and try to describe this to you, but I don’t have a lot to put down right away, but I’m hoping **** ’ll come to me as I go. The quintile first: I heard it described as a power aspect, kind of in the realm of how it’s seen in Scorpio. As a matter of fact, I try to think of Scorpio or Pluto when I’m trying to get a handle on how this aspect will manifest. There is a "transformationalness" to it… the bodies involved and the resulting "brew" will have a stark, stand-out, obviousness, and I think that’s why it is such a factor in auspicious events and extraordinary personality traits- it’s the nature of the aspect itself- to "rise above" or "be above", and it’s in that sense that I refer to power in describing this. Again, like I said, it’s helpful for me to think of Scorpio or Pluto- power as involved in those. A control kind of power. An explosiveness, but I like to think "nuclear blast" when I think of the explosion- it doesn’t just explode- it’s a new existence in a way. I’m trying to say pretty much the same thing as how Pluto is described as transformational- it’s that nature. The personality traits that are the synthesis of bodies (or points, I believe) combined with this aspect are bold and "overflowing with vitality"… when somebody describes another person’s "outstanding" qualities, (and that description is ripe with meaning in this case, I think), I would almost certainly expect the quintile to be involved… especially if it’s a quality that is involved in some type of fame. If you’re thinking, "Yeah, but so would a conjunction, especially on an angle", and that’s true… but a conjunction in and of itself I think of as static- it just "is". It would stand out because of it’s conglomeration… the quintile stands out because of it’s energy (and so does a septile… they’re different kinds of energy, but there is a vitality to both of them). The quintile’s energy is kind of a "devastation", where a septile’s is more "electric". A quintile is more "radioactive" (hey- you asked… this is really friggen hard to put into words J ). In transits, when a quintile happens, it is distinctive and differentiating. When a quintile happens, it HAPPENS. If you explore quintile transits or personality traits, what I try to do is- look and see what planets or points are involved, then get a mental image of what qualities they embody, then look at the person and these distinctive qualities as they are present in the person, and see "how" the result is… what "kind" of energy or presence is there, with your attention sensitive to power and even control. That’s the only way I’ve been able to get a sense of how quintiles are. Same with the septile- follow the same procedure, but be sensitive to an "activeness" or a "charged-up and running". As hard as it is for me to describe a quintile, it’s even more obtuse with a septile… but the ways I’ve just laid out to get in their neighborhoods is the best way. That, and you’ll know ‘em when you see ‘em- it’s not like a trine where you have to look to see how they distinguish themselves- these "jump out" at you. They almost yell at you."

I just looked up G's chart and the only quintile he has is his moon quintile saturn... oh boy... i googled it and it says Moon quintile Saturn: Adopting a style which involves strict control of feelings; adopting a 'hard' attitude to the world, with deliberate lack of sensitivity; dry humour; building defensive structures against the environment. Geeez Louise is that spot on! He has never told a woman he loves her. He was with his ex for 4 years! And sometimes he tells me things about his job (he's a cop) and I'm horrified and he laughs... I suppose that is to be expected though. I don't know how you would cope in that line of work without getting desensitized to all you see and hear.

Again, I appreciate your help Chrissy Really.

I am generally attracted at first to people who crave more attention than I do. That attraction lasts about five seconds, then I realize ''ugh, must be an aries or leo,'' and I already *know* that won't work out. Then a little part of me notices the quiet ones, the ones that are sitting patiently observing everything around them, and seeming to posess a deep *knowing* that my very curious side wants to hear all about. Then I find out they are usually either just kinda numb or so emotionally deep and murky that I couldn't dare get that wrapped up in it, I would drown. I think the attraction that I usually have the most success with would be people with outgoing conversation, willing to take a listen to all different points of view, (but still stand strong in their beliefs) and people with kind eyes. I have found these qualities in a Gemini, a few Libras, and an Aqua (who turned out to be spilling nothing but bollocks on me, so there ya go... was decieved once). Not that signs have much to do with it, but I'm generally put off by earth sign men... never dated one that I can recall. And water sign men, have been attracted to a Scorpio before (who hasn't, really? ) but that's it, the Pisces man I dated for a while thought he was an Aries, which seemed to not fit him at all, until he finally told me his actual b-day and I was like ''ahh haa!'' was an emotional sponge... Fire signs aren't too bad, but more like just as friends. I think it would be far too explosive (especially me with my aries rising and leo moon) for me to ever get into a relationship with one. I had a Leo bf once, but he was so 'herbally altered' most of the time, that you would have guessed he was a worn out Libra.

Gah... I should really stop trying to post today, I'm too tired to make any sense... lol

Yeah, I'll go away now.

the first thing i noticed is that your house cusps are almost the exact same as mine (off by a couple degrees). this means that your 4th house cusp is capricorn, like mine, and this usually indicates a childhood that was lacking in the expression of affection or love. usually one of the parents was a bit cold or reserved - typically it is said to be the mom (since the 4th house represents the mother), but in my case it was my father, so i dont believe in paying strict attention to the formula. look to the aspects the ruler of the 4th house makes - in this case it's saturn. it conjuncts your sun by approximately 6°. this is going to really highlight your reserve. it's going to give you a capricornian approach to things.

"A square formed between the Sun and Saturn shows strong ambitions. There is also a fear and expectation of rejection. You are naturally defensive, and in your early years you may have underestimated your potential and questioned your self-worth. Your road to success may be paved with a few setbacks that you must learn to handle and overcome. As you mature, self-assurance becomes stronger, and you develop the personal relationships that may have been difficult for you earlier. In maturity you possess the excellent business qualities of being steady, skeptical, and persistence. You are likely to carry a heavy load of responsibility throughout your life."

your mercury is conjunct your pluto by 4° (im mentioning this aspect because i believe it's an important one - both mercury and pluto are in your 1st house):

"The conjunction of Mercury and Pluto shows that your mind is deep, penetrating, and somewhat inclined to extremes. You look for hidden meanings in what others say, and you evaluate everything subjectively. You see through people and sense their motives. Once you have made up your mind on a subject you rarely change your views, and you are very assertive in expressing them. So much so you can be overbearing at times. Nonetheless, you are a spokesperson for whatever cause you engender."

your venus squares your jupiter pretty tightly, too (important as your ruling planet is venus):

"A square aspect formed between Venus and Jupiter makes self-indulgence likely, and produces some carelessness in matters associated with Venus. Too much is taken for granted, and you may lack an appreciation of the true value of things. You can be very extravagant in both your affections and your finances, finding it difficult to manage both. You are likely to resent being forced to do anything you would prefer not to do. You are suspicious of the motives of others. You feel that any antagonistic feelings between you and someone else are largely the result of the other person not understanding you. You may have a problem keeping your weight down because of self-indulgent habits."

in addition your mars squares jupiter as well:

"The square formed between Mars and Jupiter shows that in some ways you are an extremist. You can become susceptible to fanatical religious or social beliefs. When you gamble, it is likely to be for high stakes. You may not know when to quit. Moderation has to be learned; it's not a natural trait. Women with this placement have trouble with men. Your employers are slow to credit and advance you despite your capabilities and inclination to hard work. It is perhaps better for you to be self-employed."

to analyze early childhood environment and parental relations, look to the condition of the moon, house posited in, and the 4th house, generally speaking. for love you'd want to check the 5th house (remember it's associated with love affairs, among other things), the 7th house as it relates to your partnering abilities/habits, and maybe the 8th house for how you sexually relate to someone. check also the sun, moon, mars and venus for love and relationship background (in addition to the sign placement, check to see what house they're each posited in, and also what house they rule - for example, libra is on your first house cusp so venus rules the 1st house, aries is on your 7th house cusp so that's the house mars rules...and so on). venus is especially important for you because it's your ruling planet, since your ascendant (ac) is libra. any aspects it makes will be highlighted in your chart - also, the sign and house it's in will be very important.

venus in the 12th house:

"This placement shows a love of secretiveness and solitude. You have this introspective side, and need a certain amount of time to yourself. You are somewhat socially shy, causing a degree of loneliness or perhaps romantic frustration. Your emotions are subconsciously controlled, but very strong. This position usually produces a significant degree of compassion for the downtrodden or any of the less fortunate."

mars is also in the 12th house:

"The Mars twelfth house placement shows desires and actions are influenced by the subconscious mind. You have a compelling sense of mission, but most of your desires are kept secret to avoid open opposition from others. You are secretive about your work or you prefer working alone and perhaps even in seclusion. Unconscious anger needs to be brought into the open and understood."

you also have a mutual reception between mercury and venus - mercury is in libra, ruled by venus and venus is in virgo, ruled by mercury. this gives those planets dignity in your chart.

your venus and mars are very tightly conjunct (this is an important aspect for you - a focalizer - because venus is your ruling planet, and because mars is your descendant):

"The conjunction between Venus and Mars shows a strong desire nature needing expression. You are the aggressor in relationships with the opposite sex, and you are ever eager and aggressive in making social contacts, as well. Artistic endeavors may be an active outlet for your hyperactive nature."

anyway, sorry it's not more, i don't have any references available on hand, but hopefully this will give you an idea on what things to make note of.

You may feel a lack of warmth because of that, too much contact, not enough feeling, the trick is to spend time with children, animals, and projects that you feel passionately about.

Even more important you must be inspired by what you do, to feel passionately about your work.
