What placements or aspects would make someone overly sensitive? Sometimes I feel like I am WAY too sensitive. I'm also sensitive towards other people, I hate seeing anyone in emotional pain.

Here are my placements in water if anyone was curious:

-Moon & Venus both in Scorpio
-Jupiter in Pisces
-Neptune in the 1st house
-Venus sextile Neptune
-Moon conjunct Pluto
-Moon trine Jupiter
-Venus conjunct Pluto

I was always too sensitive myself for better or worse. It's all about being too responsive to external stimuli(light,touch,taste,smell,sound,feelings,words,atmospheres). Another thing to keep in mind is that I have history of Dyslexia and Dyspraxia. We learning disabled people are often more sensitive than the average. Sensory integration issues tend to overlap with learning disabilities,ADHD,Autism,and Aspergers.


1. 12th house ruler Sun in Scorpio trine Moon in Pisces
2. Moon in Pisces in 6th square Neptune(Moon-Neptune double whammy),oppose Saturn/Neptune midpoint
3.Mercury in Scorpio parallel Neptune,conjunct Sun/Neptune midpoint.
4.Venus in Scorpio parallel Neptune
5.Saturn oppose/contraparallel Neptune
6.Pluto in 1st sextile Neptune in 3rd

I take cod liver oil,and it has helped decrease my sensitivity as well as just make my brain function better because of the Omega 3 fatty acids including DHA. I am not overly sensitive any more, but I am still highly sensitive.

hi Blue!

I was born under a full moon and I also have a lot of watery placements:

- Venus & Pluto in Scorpio and the 4th house
- Mars & Jupiter in Pisces and the 8th house
- 12th house cusp in Cancer
- Venus conjunct Pluto
- Mars trine Pluto
- Jupiter trine Pluto

- Sun opposite Moon
- Moon square Mars, Jupiter
- Moon opposite Saturn, Uranus


Most of those aspects are in watery houses so its pretty intense.. the rest of my chart is mostly fire though.

I hear ya about over-sensitivity though.

~shirty

edit: I also forgot I have a Moon singleton in Gemini and a Neptune singleton in Capricorn.. that have a huge impact on me.

Check also the Nodes. Cancerian South Node will make you incredibly sensitive as well.

Remember that big ego = overly sensitive.

So loads of aspects to the sun?

Moon in the 1st House certainly adds to over sensitivity.

I think she means being responsive to external stimuli. I don't think she means ego issues.


Another thing too. I don't believe that nodes in watersigns are indicators of being a highly sensitive person by themselves. It's not a personal point. It's more of a social point.

If there is high sensitivity, if it's not strong water placements(includes watersigns and waterhouses),then it's very likely to be strong Neptune placements and aspects(that includes parallels,contraparallels) to personal planets,points or a stationary Neptune. Strong Moon placements and aspects are indicators too.

my father had a Stationary Neptune that was dispositor of his Moon in Pisces,and my gal has one too.

I hear ya Blue, I have a strong moon/pluto/neptune/mercury. Mercury exaggerates the fact. Neptune is definitely the strongest influence in my chart though; I'm not as focused as a true Plutonian.

Looking at the Nodes and the placements for alot of water elements to see if there is alot of emotion/sensitivity. Especially Moon in 1st, 4th, 8th, 12th house(plus Moon in water sign)or aspected to other planets like Neptune, Pluto, and even Uranus. I am Sun sign Libra and I feel more like a Cancer than a Libra because of all the Moon aspects, plus having three planets and the Ascendant in Cancer. Would that make me more of a Cancer than Libra?

I'm a Taurus Sun, my Moon is in Gemini, and they're both in the 4th house. The only aspect my Moon makes is an opposition to my Saturn... I'm extremely moody.

I'm overly sensitive as well, not only to external stimuli and other people, but also to the weather [pressure systems have been known to give me migraines, tooth aches and ear aches], medication, foods and I seem to be very vulnerable to getting sick. My placements are:

Sun on the Aquarius/Pisces Cusp in the 12th House
Moon in the 12th House
Mercury in the 12th House
Pisces Ascendant in Cancer Decanate
Neptune sextile Ascendant
Neptune square Venus
Venus in the 1st House

And I'm guessing these could have something to do with my oversensitivity as well.

Moon square Pluto
Moon conjunction Mercury
Moon sextile Venus

I just threw out there what I thought may explain it, but I really don't know for sure.

Oh....I listed atmospheres as part of what I am sensitive to, and that includes weather. I get colds easily because I am exposed to cold weather. I get very irritable in hot weather.
I have a very sensitive immune system.

I also have a very sensitive digestive stomach. Actually my body is just highly sensitive. I react very strongly to medications to the point I get side effects. For instance, I took a trial dosage of antidepressant,Effexor,and it made me temporarily impotent. I was still impotent for 3 weeks after stop taking it. Chamomile tea can make me so relaxed that I am get very sleepy. St John's wort affected me very strongly when it came to my depression..even though it's said to be used for mild to moderate depression.

Too many doctors(especially psychiatrists) don't take into account the sensitivities of people's bodies vary and then they wonder why some people have side effects and need to get off the medications. This goes especially with psychiatrists. Often if people get side effects from medications that involve psychiatric issues,they are prescribed another medication. It's messed up. The ironic thing is that high sensitivity is often seen as a pathological trait,and it's often being medicated but they often get side effects from the drugs. I know this personally as a person who is overly sensitive and has been on SSRI's. My mother is overly sensitive like me,and she has been on SSRI's. She ended up with getting side effects that include nightmares and weight gain.

If you've read what I've read on Capricorn North Node (Cancerian South Node), then you'd understand how it is indeed a sensitive placement. I've also had it confirmed by another Cap North Noder. We feel too much, and we're addicted to emotions. I will grant that the sensitivity may appear different than other brands (mostly due to trying to suppress it), but it's still there.

By the way, Glaucus, some people have posted some pictures for you over in the Free For All section.

Do you have any other aspects that indicate high sensitivity? I just don't buy the node placements alone. I am not into easily believing in things that I read either. I read about my south Node in Leo,and I wasn't impressed. There are a lot of people with my South Node that aren't similar to me. This definitely includes people that I went to school with. I am very sure that you have significant highly sensitive placements that involve Neptune or Moon or watersigns or waterhouses. Declinations should be checked too. Those are the hidden aspects.

What's your birthdata. I would like to check out your chart if that's okay with you.


I checked the pic that you had for me. Interesting. I don't feel like I fit the image. hehehe


here is what I really look like:

Sure. Dec. 26, 1972 @ 2:34pm in Orange, California. (I live semi-near you- down in the Bay Area).

I have an 8th house Sun, and my Neptune sits on my Descendant conjunct my Venus.

You have the same birthdate as my Capricorn Sun,Cancer Moon,Sagittarius Rising aunt.

AHHHH....I knew it! Just as I thought. You do have a significant Neptune aspect.

Neptune oppose Ascendant/conjunct Descendant with 3'11 orb is definitely an indicator for high sensitivity

Your Moon trine Ascendant with 3'18 orb is an indicator for high sensitivity.

Your Sun in 8th is like Sun in Scorpio. 8th house is waterhouse. That could be a placement for high sensitivity. Not as much
Your Jupiter is in 8th house too,and that can be an indicator as well.

You have Venus conjunct Neptune with 4'07 orb that's an indicator for sensitivity.


Your Neptune is conjunct Moon/Midheaven midpoint with 34 minutes of arc,and that's an indicator for high sensitivity.

Your Neptune is square Venus/Ascendant midpoint midpoint with 34 minutes of arc,and that's an indicator for high sensitivity.

Your Midheaven is square Uranus/Neptune midpoint with 39 minutes of arc,and that's an indicator for high sensitivity.

Your Venus square Saturn/Neptune with 31 minutes of arc,and that's an indicator for sensitivity.

Your Mars parallel Neptune with 29 minutes of arc can be an indicator for sensitivity...I don't put much emphasis on Mars aspects though.


I knew that it couldn't be just your north node. I will give you interps for the midpoint configurations.


as far as my looks go,
I am not sure if it's my Scorpio.

Could be the Portuguese ancestry in me. I resemble my Portuguese grandfather.

This is from Brummond's Rulebook ...it's used for Uranian Astrology,but can be used for Cosmobiology and to check out 3 planetary configurations in traditional astrology.

I only use 1 degree orb for midpoints(conjunctions,oppositions,squares,semisquares,and sesquiquadrates)

Note: the interpretations list a number of positive and negative possibile manifestations of these aspects....a lot of these might not apply to you. They aren't necessarily true. You can always aim for the positive stuff and avoid the negative stuff. Free will is ultimate factor

Thanks! I'm pretty fascinated by midpoints honestly. Jupiter's been hanging out in Scorpio conjunct my Sun/Moon midpoint for a while. I've been trying to contain my sexiness.

I certainly see a lot in these descriptions, though the way it's written is a little unusual, especially when it just says My ____________.

I am a musician, and I've dreamed of acting (and hope to get around to it at some point). I am more intuitive than I realize. I was born allergic to just about every food you can be allergic to. I have tended toward indecision, though I've tributed that to my Gemini Rising.

I'm not certain that I have Venus opposite Saturn/Neptune midpoint. My Venus is conjunct Neptune, and opposite Saturn, so that's probably impossible.

Your Venus square Saturn/Neptune
midpoint.

sorry about that.

You still have Venus=Saturn/Neptune though


all aspects in midpoint astrology can be written as planet = planet/planet.....doesn't matter if it's a conjunction,opposition,square,semisquare,nor sesquiquadrate.

Im so over-sensitive, that I can be completley insensitive. Does that make sense?

Ive got Pisces Moon.10th hs opposite Saturn in Virgo/4th hs, both squared Neptune in Sag/7th hs.

Hey AG,
You have Neptune conjunct Venus and both are conjunct your Descend.
I have Neptune conjunct Venus and both are conjunct my Ascendant.......weird!

With Scorpio Rising and both Neptune and Venus in Scorpio; I am very sensitive to other people's energies and to my physical environment.

Glaucus your link is no longer working for your picture. I don't understand the midpoints yet, but I will study it and figure it out.

are you making this up?

The nodes have absolutely NOTHING to do with personality traits, they're not even planets they are ecliptic points that are used to determine Karmic lessons in this lifetime. The sign and house placement of the Nodes show what direction you want to go (North) to evolve and from where (South) you are coming from.

lalalinda,

You should direct your comments to Jan Spiller who wrote Astrology For The Soul. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0553378384/sr=8-1/qid=1155741554/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-1172984-9368161?ie=UTF8 http://www.janspiller.com/

I am familiar with Jan Spiller
And I'm sure she wouldn't be happy with you misrepresenting her work.

A Cancer South Node does not take Cancer personality traits

It has Cancer issues
Big difference
