Ok, I'm new here, and although I've read a lot about my planetary positions separatly, I still think it's difficult to look at the whole picture. When I read about my Moon in Capricorn, I sound like a totally different person than the one with Venus in Aries.... What is most important when it comes to describing myself as a whole person?

And, if someone could reply by using me as an example I would be most grateful...

I'm born 03/08/75, Oslo, Norway, at 5.20 pm,
that should give me:
Sun in Pisces
Moon in Capricorn
Asc. in Leo
Venus in Aries
Mars in Aq.
Mercury in Aq.

Thanks so much!

I'm new here, too. I have a question for you ... I'm guessing that you went to astro.com and got your natal chart, right? When you did that, did you notice in the box just above and to the left of "Continue" that it listed several locations for Oslo?

But I need to be in love - if I'm not completely into it, and the other person shows that he is, I definitely lose interest.

Cecilie,
I'm still learning, so ...
but I've got your chart in front of me now, so I'll try to give you some ideas. (Actually, I keep reading that you have to consider the "whole" chart, not just pieces. This makes sense because, if you think about it, you aren't just a female, you're a female born in a certain era and country, in a particular family ... etc.!)

I, too, have the Leo ASC, Moon in Cap, and N.Node in Sag. My spouse has Venus in Aries.

I don't know about you, but I balked when I would read that Leo ASC is the actor, performer, center of attention. I really objected to the "cold-hearted" interpretations of Moon in Cap. (I also have Venus in Cap, that gets stereotyped as the "gold-digger" ... ha! you should see my bank account ... you'd know different!)

Leo on ASC is also about your appearance ... there may be something noticeable about your hair, maybe long like the lion's mane or "poofy" (not slicked down).
I asked an astrologer once, if "acting" had to be on stage or, if "putting up a front" rather than showing our real feelings could be considered "acting." She thought about it a minute, and agreed it could.

Cappy Moon -- I associate that with "structured emotions/feelings," and a strict mother. Don't know if this will make sense to you, but I "think" my feelings rathe than "feel" spontaneously. I consider "what" I will allow myself to feel in given situations.
(With Venus in Cap, I also consider to whom I will give my love before I rush head-long into a relationship.)
With your Moon being at 29Cap, some people would say you may have some of the tendencies of Moon in Aq, as well.
With your Moon in the 6th, you may need to keep your emotions in reserve with the type of work you do. Or, maybe your emotions fluctuate based upon your health or work.

Venus in Aries -- I read the posts concerning this. I have to agree, as for my spouse ... I'm not how it would be if he didn't also have Sun and ASC in Gemini, though, but he definitely wants what he wants NOW! (On the second date, he was telling me he loved me ... course my Cap planets were saying, "You don't even know me!")
Venus in the 9th -- perhaps you find beauty/love in foreign, intellectual, religious, or legal things/situations? (the 9th house is the natural house of Sag.)

Pisces Sun -- I think is generally thought of as the psychic, sensitive, or emotional person that likes films, fantasy, illusion. Yours is in the 8th house -- other people's money; death, birth, regeneration (including sex). -- (I'm not as familiar with this placement, so don't want to go into details.)

Your 1st house is 16 degrees wide with no planets in it, so I'd guess that you aren't overly concerned with how others see you ... you're probably comfortable with your appearance and how you "come across" to folks.
Perhaps you have/had some illusions/confusion about your home or past which is reflected in your sense of self. With that, you may have learned to retrict your emotions to some extent.
This could cause some problems/aggravation with your tendency to go after the object/person of your desires.

Your Mars is in Aq., and I'm not real familiar with that placement ...

Maybe this gives you an idea of how to synthesize the different interpretations. Again, I'm still learning and I don't know you (which is difficult for me in interpreting), so keep that in mind as well!
