This is only something I've really noticed in the last few years (especially this past fall), but I guess I seem to think of myself as much more outgoing than I really am. When I'm not in classes, I'm in the most empty places in the building with my headphones in and my laptop out. When people approach me I look like a deer in headlights, even if I'm not actually intimidated by them.Is there anything in my chart that explains why I'm so shy?  I just want to be as outgoing as I feel I am in my head! IP: Logged |

You have a Sun square Saturn (exact). I have it as well.Does it feel like you censor yourself? Is that why you stay shy in personal interactions? In class, is it just easier to talk because it's things you've studied so you feel more sure you're correct...but when it comes to interpersonal relations, there's too much ifs/or/maybes that makes it to uncertain, and therefore easier to stay removed?

^ Yeah and you have Mercury square Saturn (though the degree isn't close), Mercury conjunct Pluto exact, Sun in 8th house... All this makes you serious and quite intense? Private?IP: Logged |

Unfortunately, it's Saturn's fault again. (Oh Saturn!)In your natal chart you have: Sun Square Saturn (0 degrees), They are inclined to want to constantly better themselves, making adjustments in their own character when they see something that isn't working for them. Though they do get stuck in the mud. Definitely, the Saturnian influence of the strong aspects (conj-square-opp) to Sun lends itself to a serious nature that strives for achievement and has a pretty rigid personal code." Although, you Sun does receive a nice sextile from your moon, which should help you keep your emotions in check. IP: Logged |

Depending on what orb range you use, the challenging Saturn aspects may reduce.
I usually use +/- 6 degrees for a Square aspect. So your Mercury Square Saturn aspect may not be as bad as first thought. Hope this helps! IP: Logged |

Like the others pointed out, Sun square Saturn. I noticed your Saturn is in 11th house which could explain the restrictions with making friends. Ruler of 11th is in Capricorn in Cap's house 10th conj Neptune(shy energy as well). 11th house house rules friendships. Scorpio planets can be very shy as well plus 8th house Sun.You yearn to be outgoing because of the 7th planets. This is a social sign(Libra). Your chart shows the likelihood you create great ideas and it opens up more when you're around people. Maybe you can sense that part and why you yearn for it. Your Mercury/Jupiter/Pluto all in Scorpio and all in conjunction is so intriguing. Do you like to write stories or write at all? You have good indications of a great writer. IP: Logged |

Wow, thanks for the responses everyone!Seems like the general consensus is the Sun square Saturn thing. Drat! Saturn'd again! As soon as I'm around at least one person I know fairly well, I am significantly more social, but meeting new people has always been rough. I'm just never sure how to act around new people and am worried that I'm going to scare them off. I'm rather passionate about things that are typically in the categories of "weird" and "nerdy", so I usually find myself a little out of touch with people. @birdy, I feel the same way about that conjunction. I just feel like no matter what, it always seems to come back to that one pile-up. I actually love to write! I just haven't had nearly enough time to write anything non-academic in a couple years, and any time I get the time to write, I seem to get writer's block. I'm hoping to transfer to a new college soon, and potentially plan to major in writing or screenwriting - I haven't quite decided yet. I really love it, and everyone who's read my writing seems to love it, too. (I'm getting my Shakespeare teacher to write my transfer recommendation - he absolutely FLIPPED over everything I wrote for his class!) IP: Logged |
