I've lurked on this forum for a few years but was too anxious to join. I decided to bite the bullet and do it.

A few years ago, I was part of a starseed site and that's where I first encountered IQ and he told me that I'm a "cosmic wanderer". I've thought about that on and off, even got an interpretation of my natal chart with my starseed markings from a different astrologer later on, but now I'm feeling a more urgent need to remember why it is that I'm here.

I've been doing some research into galactic astrology lately and I do have at least one interesting aspect: Neptune in my 1st at 13 Sag conj GA.

If there is anyone here who can take a look at my natal placements and starseed markings, may I ask for an interpretation or if you don't wish, point me to some good research materials outside LL?

My info:
DOB: August 5, 1977
TOB: 14:27 EDT
POB: Riverhead, New York

Thank you very much in advance.

may I ask, my dear, where you are studying galactic astrology? you are definitely affirming to me my suspicions that I am being guided to learn this!

Oh, just gleaning various articles by Phil Sedgwick and others. I feel that the standard natal astrology is a bit limiting, you know? So I was curious as to what other bodies in the natal chart may signify and went to a search engine.

I'm mostly self-taught, I'm afraid. I've written natal chart interpretations for a few friends who've asked. I'm merely an amateur.

If you go on astro.com and input your data details. They can produce a chart for you.

And then you can link the chart to your post and I will look at it.

I prefer looking at Asc/Sun/Moon/Merc and Venus/Mars. These are the placements I became familiar with when starting out.

The aspects I came to learn as I went along and am still uncovering as to how they play out in my life. Lol

Welcome

I barely look at those. Save for Juno/Chiron lol . But for now let me start with the Sun to Mars.

The Asc is the outer energy one expresses that is the "being" of the individual. And is not controlled or can be turned "off". It just is.

It is the 1st impression people get when they interact with you and is known as the 1st house energy. Any planets near the 1st house will influence its expression and mitigate what is said below;

Asc in Scorpio- The default face one has with this energy on the Asc is viewing things with X-ray vision.

To this Asc there is always more than just what is apparent. And what is hidden always matters more than what is showing.

To others you appear like you are distrusting, snoopy and even invasive because they feel like you try to get " under" their skin when in truth you want to get to know their hidden selves which you are convinced is their "true" identity.

You yearn to bond deeply with others but ironically sometimes the energy you put off can be off-putting to those who are more casual with people and are not looking to "bear their soul" etc. Or even those who are shy,timid and self conscious.

So with these types you can loathe interactions with them as it seems insincere and shallow(especially the former). Because you see them as "weak" and unable to face their true selves etc.

Mars and Pluto rule the Asc. And so the planet Mars and Pluto sign energies are important.

Mars is in Gemini- mental agility, ability to think on one's feet, can create a nervous disposition, easily rattled, very busy mental process and restless when doing nothing. Always enjoys having more than one iron on the stove.

Gemini Mars has a sharp wit,mimicking skills and a dicey tongue. Enjoys a lively debate, wordplay and clever comebacks. Its a lively Mars that can be an intellectual and industrious powerhouse who is very popular with others. But also quite argumentative when roused.

Your DSC is the opposite of your Asc and speaks of the people who are instinctively drawn to you because of the energy you put out(Asc).

The DSC energy often draws close partners,friends, relatives you are close with and romantic/marriage partners.

Again,planets on the Dsc cusp will affect the type of people whom you are drawn to & colour the nature of relationships you have.

Your Dsc is Taurus.

You tend to draw in or be attracted to steady, dependable types who are the same today, tomorrow and always.

You tend to dislike surprises in relationships or any upheavals. So the more you get to know someone, the more you favour peaceful relations between you and them(especially when they have 'revealed' their soul to you)

You are not one to chop and change close relations and will often keep long held contacts for years(even when they don't really serve you to keep them).

So being a bit of a hoarder,possessive of close friends or partners is likely as you do consider them valuable and "yours". And you fear loss of both the psychological and tangible kind.

Many times your partners in marriage tend to be concerned about their security financially So its likely that an attraction to someone who is doing well money-wise is strong.

That kind of resource suggests SECURITY to you (which is important in your close relationships and love prospects)

You are no " gold digger". But you do expect your partner to be able to take care of you (sexually or financially. But ideally both)

The ruler of the Dsc in Taurus is Venus in Cancer.

Venus rules relationships, attractions,money, pleasure, how we show affection, our creative outlets,and all that you think is beautiful.

While the Dsc deals with people we attract from an instinctive,default level. Venus deals with those attractions that we are conscious of or invite purposely

Venus is in Cancer and this suggests that the nature is one that is sensitive to the needs of others in relationships

One often acts as a maternal mother figure and fusses a lot on those they care about around them through cooking for them, cleaning after them or attending to their emotional well-being.

It can suggest an attraction to sensitive people(with the addition of the Dsc energy). But also the inclination to dress in a manner that is more classic, vintage and traditional than flashy.

Cancer Venus can be the type who loves traditional roles in relationships and can prefer for the mate to assume a somewhat rigid role of provider/caretaker.

Moon in Taurus- The Moon speaks of our emotional perspective on life and subjective life experience.

The Moon rules our emotional mind and how we not only expect others to nurture us. But also how we nurture or self soothe.

When in Taurus, it is exalted (well placed) and speaks of emotions being stable, steady and controlled(without being stifled like Cap Moon).

When Taurus is here we expect nurture to come in the form of tangibles or stuff. So Taurus Moon can be a collector i.e the more stuff they have, the more secure they feel.

So this "stuff" could be assets, a stable job with a steady income, a wealthy spouse, a regulated routine, an allowance etc.

Taurus Moon believes in a comfortable life and as long as that is not tampered with, they are the epitome of serenity,calm and peace.

However should there be disturbances on that front(loss of income, spouse or "stuff"), the nature can progressively get insecure, agitated and even downright violent.

A long walk in peaceful nature is sometimes much of what Taurus Moon needs to assure them that all is well and that the absence of " stuff" is not the beginning of chaos. That all is still well with the soul.

The phrase "Be still and know that I am God" and "It is well with my soul" could have been written for a Taurus Moon. Lol.

Well, I did post the link as attempting bbcode and HTML didn't work as I would have wished - I suspect it's because I'm new. I didn't include Juno I. The drawing, but the position is 16 Sco 9.

Quite accurate so far:
Strangers act as if they're afraid of me - I read an article about Mars-Pluto aspects that explained that pretty well. On top of the scary Asc. As for the yearning deeply to connect, that is true. I have a deeply traumatic past and major trust issues, but sometimes I feel like shouting, "I mean you no harm!" I can't stand shallow people. It's like expecting a sandwich and only getting the bread and no filling.

My Mars...my Mars...I love bantering, wit, and am curious about everything.

Spot on about my moon, though I ignore the desire to hoard. I almost go to the other extreme - live light, travel light. I don't like clutter. And yes - I am attracted to dependable types as I am dependable. Also, because I grew up watching the women in my family be the primary financial support, and not by choice. One of my sisters is in this situation now. I do desire that any partner pull their weight - I am not built for that martyrdom.

I'd say I'm pretty calm most of the time - my Moon keeps me from flying off the handle most of the time. I am very patient however...once I've had it, I've. Had. It. I've been told I have a calming effect on people and called a "security blanket".

I crave peace and serenity - and I want others to have the same. Grew up not having my emotional needs met and abused, so. I've lost so many people that I just have resigned myself to it in that I do fear it, but it doesn't really surprise me when it inevitably happens.

Venus - I do fuss over and "mother" those I care about. I worry about my loved ones and am a giver. As for traditional roles - I do sometimes want that, but it's more important to me that my partner is themself. As long as I have a choice - otherwise, I'm gone.

I'm just feeling the urgency and it's a bit uncomfortable. I'm almost antsy.

Sorry.

Mercury in Virgo - strong planning and coordinating skills. Ability to sort information and arrange it in ways that are easy to process. Looks at the details and specifics a lot more than the generic. The mind is focused on how to fix or solve issues or towards things that may cause issues.

Leo Sun position is a personality that prides itself on being open, generous, confident ,bold and wise.

Leo has a strong authoritative aura that is not austere like Cap nor overwhelming like Scorp. It usually is the type of authority that makes others automatically assume "this is the person in charge".

Leo paints with a broad brush and shares Sag ideals as well as Aries enthusiasm for life.

But they differ from the two mentioned in that the focus is not on becoming "special" through intellectual pursuits(Sag) or winning(Aries). But remaining in the vicinity of what they know they ALREADY are...special.

Even when Leo "loses", it means little to them. Because they inwardly know that they are not required to "prove" anything to anyone.

But should Leo in the same breath " win", it is usually not very surprising to them either as they see themselves worthy of the spoils.

So either way, Leos pride and self assurance is rarely toppled and remains intact.

Some call it arrogance or conceit. To Leo it is not waiting for applause from others but looking in the mirror with the surety that one is amazing.

Contrary to popular belief,Leo does not "need" praise but loves appreciation. Because Leo represents the God force of life that is symbolically represented by the Sun.

Mistakenly people "praise" God. As if God has need for praises & is forever looking to to gratify the ego.

What God really wants is "appreciation". And that is the acknowledgement of all the things that life experience brings forth: the good and the "bad"

Notice how good you feel when you start to appreciate your life and everything in it? That is Leo energy at work.

In that this energy calls us forth to be appreciative and stay in a state of gratitude for ALL of life. This is the ultimate secret to a long life. Accept all life and accept yourself "as you are you are enough".

So in no way does Leo put themselves on a pedestal "above" others. But it is usually OTHERS who perceive the Leo to be on a pedestal.

This is because Leo demonstrates the conscious energy of loving, appreciating and being centred in the self.

The world may label that "self centred" way of living in a negative light. When they really want to say " appreciation of oneself without waiting for others to do it is a rare quality'"

I was talking to a friend about that. I hear or see, "Halp!" and my response is, "I can halp! Or if I can't I'll find out who can." I don't like giving pat answers or leaving someone standing unhelped.

Yep. It would make me feel all kinds of uncomfortable if people worshipped me. Just...*shudder*

1. Gratitude is key to keeping grounded. Too many of my fellow Lions get too wrapped up in ego and praise and begin to lose their footing. It is very seductive, flattery, but it is also very empty.

2. Yeeeeaaaahhhhh...I'm the last person who should be on anything like a pedestal. I'm clumsy and I have Vertigo.

3. I've been accused of being "self-centered", "trying to find myself special", etc because of trying to learn more about myself. Those accusations came from people who didn't like that I had the "nerve" to not focus on them all the time. Our society really hates introspection, self-examination, and introversion. And if you have gifts but refuse to let some corporation or alphabet agency exploit them, people act as if you're "wasting talent". Nah - I'm good.

Thanks Randall. Its all good.

Yes I do know IQ. Just need to be formerly acquainted with asteroids myself first. Then I will ask questions as I have no clue when it comes to those-save for Juno,Chiron and Pallas Athena.

Yes. Absolutely agree with you there. I think its your earthy grounded Taurus Moon that encourages this self awareness too. As Taurus above all seeks to be self sufficient.

In that way, nothing can ever disrupt their sense of inner peace ;not breakup, nor financial collapse,nor death, nor drought,nor home related issues etc. Nothing.

From an intrinsic level, I understand Taurus Moon. As that is my Draconic Moon placement.

It took me a while however to truly understand the Leo energy beyond the bravado and pompous nature it is famed for.

Even Linda seems to worship the Lion as her descriptions of the Leo in " Love signs", painted a picture of an energy that is glazed more in colours of admiration than clarity.

I have Mars/Pluto/Saturn and DSC in Leo in the Draconic chart. And I struggled to see myself as vain/proud at all.

But then I had a romantic fling with 2: The first being the more "wounded" Leo with Mars/Pluto conjunct and an afflicted Moon in Sag-very difficult individual to understand on the whole.

The other was more loving Scorpio Moon with Venus/Mars in Virgo conjunct.

As I spent more time with the latter, I realized we had tons in common. But I didn't see him as "proud" nor "vain". Even though he was goodlooking.

It could be his Virgo placements toned things down. But I did notice the " self centred " nature spoken about. And how he was very much like Taurus(mostly) but with little less handle/grip on the materialism side of life.

He liked to have fun,entertain people, have long make out sessions lol and was a sweet endearing soul all in all.

The Scorpio moon jealousy would show itself up when I had visitors and he couldn't see me. Afterwards he would question me about the visitors in a sort of interrogation style lol.

The only thing I did to get myself out of those moments was to assure him of how awesome our connection was(which it truly was). And how stupid I would be to wreck it etc.

The only reason things didn't get serious between us was because he was still wanting to remain closeted. I didn't want to put pressure on him or turn his world upside down because he came from a strongly conservative background.

Had things worked out otherwise however,this Sag would have definitely committed to that Leo. And I am talking in the serious marital sense of the word. Imagine that
