So...what aspect of a chart would make a good cook or a bad one? Is it Mars, Ascension, or perhaps sun?
My guess is that it's about the Mars placement-my sister's Mars is in Taurus and she is a natural when it comes to cooking-I, on the other hand, have Mars in Aries-and I'm a total disaster when it comes to the kitchen-I once managed to make an omelette with some purple highlights. Seriously.
On the other hand she has a Cancer ascension and I have a Libra ascension...so I'm not totally sure...

Taurus and Cancer definitely love the good food! I have Moon c\onj Venus giving it a kind of Taurean Moon flair and I do love to whip up the magic in the kitchen.

Have never heard of Mars influencing tho! Mine is Libra, and I do always like to make certain that it looks -good- ; maybe theres something there.

On a mundane level, I would attribute cooking to the 6th house - simply another task that has to be done in the course of the daily grind - We must nourish our bodies, afterall.

However, I think a 5th house mooner would probably take the simple concept of nourishment to an art-form.

A 10th house mooner may make a career out of cooking.


Hmmm

Cooking - 6th house
Eating - 4th house
Cooking for a living - 10th house moon or Venus
Eating for a living - 6th house Venus?

Or maybe it's all 4th house. Maybe it depends on how you feel about it.

Ok, I'll admit - I don't know! Good question, though.

I love to cook and am quite good at it! I seldom use "recipies" and it is a creative outlet for me. I have a Pisces Sun and Venus in the 4th house and a Taurus Moon in the 6th.

Strong Taurus and/or Cancer will make one a good cook.

Hippichick-My sister is also a pisces sun, and she has the same attitude for cooking...maybe it's a sun thing?

I seriously love to cook, since I was nine years old...my Mars is in Sagittarius in the 12th, Ascendant also in Sag, my Venus is in Libra in the 11th...sooooo go figure. Oh, and I'm also a 1st house Sagittarius Sun...

It could be that my Moon in Aquarius is in food & security-loving 2nd house...

I'm a really good cook. Not sure what aspect to attribute it to. My 6th house is empty. I have Mars in the 5th conjunct the Sun. Libra rising. Cancer MC. 4th house Capricorn Moon.

I was always trying to cook stuff, even as a child.

I consider myself to be a good cook but I really don't think it has anything to do with Mars placements (Mars in Scorpio 6th house). I have a Taurus Ascendant and Taurus moon in the 1st house and I love good food.

My parents are AMAZING cooks. My mom (Cancer Asc, Cap Sun, Gem Moon) is more of a recipe cooker however. She doesn't feel right not following the guidelines and is far too worried that it won't come out right if you add that extra pinch of salt... So she often doesn't add too much extra or innovation to her dishes... and I'm like my dad (Leo Asc/Taurus Sun/Leo Moon). - He just puts in what "feels" good. It's like he doesn't need a recipe book to tell him how to cook/bake. He just instinctively knows.

I get confused reading step by step instructions. All of my cooking-the measurements, time, and extra additives are all pretty much my judgement. And I've been told that I'm an *amazing* cook. Too bad I don't do it for anyone but myself.


What I found interesting is that my Dad and sister both have Venus/Mars in Cancer. And they only bake, and generally refuse to cook. AND the cook exactly the same even down to their *special ingredients* but teh thing is....they have a horrible relationship and never ever talk to each other even though they live under the same roof so it's kind of a subconscious thing. The only difference is that my sister (Gem Asc, Gem Sun, Libra Moon) still follows the guidelines like my mom just not as intensely, she takes the basics of making a cake then jazzes it up her way. As opposed to my dad who just breaks out the basic ingredients, throws away the box, and gets to work.

I was thinking about cooking as a career, I think one day I may do it as a hobby... not ME cooking of course, but people cooking MY recipes.. maybe have a restaurant, or two, or many

My Moon's in the 10th house

My mom is an awesome cook; she loves to cook very "homey" southern dishes. She is a Cancer Sun, Taurus Moon, Leo Ascendant.
As a matter of fact, she won a cooking contest last year.
My brother and I both love to cook, but more gourmet fare...... I am a Libra Sun/Scorpio Ascend. and he is a Scorpio Sun/Libra Ascend.

I love cooking and learning about food. I literally spent hours browsing the shops, Gourmet Garage and Dean and DeLuca when I was in NYC. NYC is heaven for gourmet and dining out.

I have moon in cancer in the 2nd house/3rd house - oh it's right on the cusp (confusing to me). I have a cooking diploma and was trained in french classical cuisine. I was in a restaurant industry for several years and decided to get out of that - Now I'm inthe human services field.

Most of the people around me find that I'm an amazing cook and make such delightful goodies to eat.I get asked to go over to people's houses to cook for them.......that was in my younger days and now my only food critic is my preschooler - sadly she doesn't like my food......
