I'm a biology major and feeling really overwhelmed by everything. There's a lot of pressure from many sides and I'm trying to make the best decision.

King of Wands - 8 of Cups - 6 of Wands
8 of Pentacles - 4 of Cups

I did a 5-card spread for you.

Current position: I can see you are overwhelmed and confused at this moment. Not knowing what to do. Feeling sorrow and perhaps a bit down even. So I would advise to wait a bit longer before you are deciding. Otherwise decisions are being made from this feeling of loss. Not sure if those feelings are all related to your study though. I expect there might be something playing your mind are in the background that actually isn't related to this issue. This overwhelming feeling will pass. It will not be as bad as it seems/feels at this moment.

The core/reason for asking: the need for balance in your life. But as a second I feel that you also feel you would need this chemistry major in your career. It would fit well 'into the mix'. Is that correct? I had the Temperance card here. Another card showing cups in the recent past. I'm linking this with fluids and your chemistry classes also. Does it feel like a gift or a privilege to being able to study this? Basically what I also saw in the Temperance card. It is the page of cups, so clearly related to learning. Potency found in this situation: another page, the real student, page of pents. I think it is advising you to stick with it a bit longer. Contemplating on it a bit more, because having this chemistry knowledge will bring you forward/it is something you can build upon. I also see that in the advice/outcome position: 3 of pents. It will help you master your current study. So it will pay of to continue.

Extra: also because two three's showed up, I¦m interpreting this as a 'take it into the mix'/hold on to it: it will be of advantage, enables you to create something new.

Hope this is of some help to you.

Hanna- yes there's a lot of pride lol. I hate asking for help bc I don't want others to look at me like some charity case, or think that I can't handle something. Quiting would be admitting I couldn't handle it and that all these younger kids would be another step ahead of me. There is help, free tutoring, and at this point I'd have to work really hard and bc I slacked at the beginning my hope lies between a C and B-

Twirl- as a biology major you need chemistry, I can't progress without it and for what I would like to do as a career there will be chemistry needed. The other sad thing you're likely picking up is my home life. I live with family and it adds to the burden tremendously in ways I don't want to get into right now. It's just not a healthy place. The last day to drop a class is in a few days which is why I asked this question, so technically I can't wait too much but I agree that in making decisions like this a clear head is needed.

I actually pulled Temperance when I read for myself but I wanted an objective pair of eyes to read for me. I also pulled knight of pents which made me correlate it to the 8 of pents in terms of perserverence/not giving up. Interesting take on the 3s, I usually take that to mean multiple people in this case extra help.

For the help bit on your reading: I never really look at that, but that is also of a conviction that there is always the help out there you want and need (as goes for the 'right' information on a topic), but it sometimes is a matter of locating it.
I don't now what your school system is like, but perhaps you can also discuss the chemistry subject with a mentor/teacher.

Okay, here's my chart. My question is about material goods/money, lol. In general I don't really care about it and I always manage, but it's getting a bit annoying. I chose to work as a freelancer and I'm your typical 'struggle 4 the arts' kind of person. But that only explains to an extent the ups&downs in income. I have the credentials, portfolio & receive the praise, but not the money! 12th house taurus & jupiter (29th degree)in it might explain it and I have an empty 2nd (and 10th) house :-/
What do you see? Where's the money (some material base), Little Cloud? What steps to take?

Thanks

I did a CC

you/situation- knight of cups
crossing- 4 of swords
bottom- High priestess
left- 7 of wands
top- queen of cups
right- star
10 of pentacles- king of discs- the world- 9 of discs

Clearly this started out all nice and romantic and then suddenly nada...stupid knight of cups. He's cute, but flaky. Ok with the 4 of swords I take it you guys are currently not speaking that it was more of a simmering down type of thing rather an argument...or is a simmering down type of thing... With the HP followed by the 7 of wands I feel like he has/had/is going through some type of internal balancing act. He's got some issues that are holding him back from achieving his goals.

and I know that technically this spread looks nice but it feels more like a peaceful ending..

I worry with the way the HP and Queen of cups are placed...It makes me feel wary, like there is the possibility of emotional manipulation... I think perhaps after some time he will give you some type of hope. The King of Discs shows him having matured and completed his inner battle. Maybe there's another girl? (I'm speculating at this point, the cards don't really indicate another girl. at least not to me)

The 10 of pentacles tell me you wanted this to be something long-term? Or at least expected it to be something long-term..even if it is/was friendship. Followed with the King then the World I feel like you will get some type of closure, this phase will end you can trust that. But then the 9 of discs at the end...I think you'll be content on your own. I've around on here how this is the single girls card but to me it also means that you're waiting for the fruit to ripen, for the right moment.

can you re-post the chart using equal house system? leave the original up...sometimes I like to compare. I'm not really good with transits, but I'll give it a try. I'm better at telling you the potential in your chart.

posted April 11, 2013 02:21 AM            

Here's the other one with equal houses. I would just be really interested in what you see generally (or just the natal chart), because I know so little of astrology. But the 'material goods' question does interest me. I thought I might have to use my Saturn more (and I'm doing that), but I really can't stand the Saturn energy. Restriction & doing things within an existing structure really annoys me.
What did you do with the chemistry?

If this doesn't resonate I'll try another one.

I'm gonna stick it out. I won't get an A but a C or even C+ is good enough for me right now.

Ok..I'm not gonna sugar coat it...finances don't look easy for you. Your second house ruler is moon conjunct chiron, square your 8th house ruler Saturn which is the apex of your t-square. The opposition to Uranus also makes it very unstable. Since squares indicate some internal struggle I'm going to say that you likely grew up modestly, not rich but maybe not completely dirt poor. For something stable you will have to struggle A LOT. I think your best bet is to try to network and avoid getting up in romances that drain your wallet, exciting as they may be. As well as any long term partnerships, legal issues as well. If anything happens legally makes sure your ass is COVERED! You've got neptune on the dsc (7th house is also legal stuff) and it is being tightly square by venus which means that you tend to overlook the flaws expecting others to be naturally good. How I wish that was true.

Try networking through older friends or relatives, maybe aunts and uncles even if you're not particularly close.

I think that the best advice I can give you right now with my little knowledge of financial matters in the natal. I'm always better at delving into the psychology of matters. If you have more questions let me know, and if I think of anything else I will post it for you.

Thanks Little!
Good you chose to stick with it!

And for your interpretation; yeah... That sounds about 'spot on' unfortunately, lol. This: 'you tend to overlook the flaws expecting others to be naturally good' is very true also. I normally get away with that placement (in the end), but perhaps also because Jupiter has my ass ;-) (or it makes me have an extra positibve outlook, lol - I have closets filled with 'pink glasses'.
I have a good network, I'll try to use that more. Getting stability is an annoying struggle.

Thanks Little

My next one is why does AZ dislike/hate me so much? I've barely spoken to this girl in the entire year that I've known her yet she's always fairly abrasive to me. Other girls say she's a bully but the guys seem to be able to deal with her better (I think at least).

---

Ace of Wands - 6 of Pentacles - 5 of Swords
Base: 10 of Swords

To me I don't think AZ is aware of her behavior. These cards tell me the way she speaks is definitely abrasive but I think that's just how she raised herself. She seems used to being alone and understands why she's alone but not how to change her behavior so that everybody is happy, you know? Seems like she is just naturally competitive and stubborn and that it doesn't really have anything to do with you. Just a lot of doubt and insecurity so she feels she has to prove herself.

Anyway? What time frame did you have in mind for the near future? I haven't really figured out a way to tell time through tarot so I usually stick my own time frame in the question. 3 months?

---

It sounds bad but she reminds me of how I act or feel on the inside. It's just walls and mistrust, she's probably actually super sensitive, no?

As for a time frame - 6 months? I don't like putting time frames on readings only because I feel like that sets up expectations when things happen in their own time. I don't mind them, just offering my reasoning.

I understand being protective of oneself, I'm that way too but she takes it to a different level where she ends up gloating about how much better she is and how pathetic others are. In a situation where you're training with other people and have to trust that they wont hurt you, she seems to like hurting others because it means she's somehow better. It's just really negative.

What if I phrase it, in the near future, within the year? That way it's more open ended.

---

OH. She's like THAT. LOL. Those types of people are very insecure about their own position in life. How does she end up tagging along with the crowd? Bustling her way in, or does someone in there genuinely like her?

you/situation- wheel of fortune
crossing- 8 of wands
bottom- 2 of cups
left- 3 of wands
top- 8 of swords
right- 8 of cups

seven of discs- six of discs- six of cups- 9 of cups

Well it definitely does look hopeful!!
You basically want to speed up the process. I have a "can we just get to the good part" feeling. But at the same time you know things can't be rushed. So I'm think there was some type of relationship that you were feeling out and seeing how things would play out and it didn't go to well...or at least wont. There's a fear and uncertainty holding you back. Once you can move past these feelings you can go on to the seven of discs. Obviously it's very passive but it'll give you the time you need to find what you truly want. Like see what's out there and make sure you don't settle, and pick the right guy for you. You may even have 2 guys to choose from or someone will be generous with their love for you (doting). Either someone from your past or someone that filled you with innocent joy, like remembering how it was when your first fell in love. With the 9 of cups as the outcome it definitely seems like you will get what you wished for.

BUT first you Must get rid of those fears, and uncertainties. Give them a voice. Say them allowed to someone or to no one and just leave them out there to be released. The universe will take care of that for you.
