As a female this has caused me more trouble in my love life than I don't know the hell what! Not only am I attracted to bad boys, but they have to be tough and wild and sleeved out with tattoos, and many times dangerous. I'm a white girl from an upper class christian family in the suburbs. If a gorgeous man off the cover of GQ wearing a 5,000 suite passed me on the street I wouldn't look twice. I swear! What is my freakin damage? From my knowledge of astrology I'm gonna attribute this to a Uranus affliction maybe? I've got mars in sag conj uranus in scorp angular in my 7th house. Uranus also conj mercury, sextiles my sun, and closely semi-squares my moon. For the dark, dangerous thing that drives me so wild I'm gonna guess that's my sun conj pluto almost exact. Does anyone else have a simular problem like this? Please share!

I am not attracted to dark and dangerous ... I've known too well a couple of them maybe, no mystery for me there anymore but unusual people do get my attention, but only if they are naturally unusual (not those who try to be so on purpose) and truly unusual people mostly dont know how unusual they are lol

I think that it's not just Uranus

but also the centaurs like Chiron with their highly eccentric orbits......those are nonconformists

it could also be the transneptunians like Pluto with their highly inclined orbits...they tend to orbit well off the ecliptic unlike the planets. Pluto is a plutino,and has a highly eccentric orb. They tend to be on the otherworldly side because they orbit beyond Neptune which is the planet of dissolving the boundaries


I am attracted to unusual women myself with Moon,Venus in aspects to transneptunians

I have no Uranus aspects to my Moon nor Venus.


if I remember right, your Ixion-Quaoar is conjunct your Descendant.

Ixion is a plutino, and it was named after the father of the centaurs. It's a mythological badboy.....a king that was the first murder in greek mythology,and who was punished by zeus for his lust for hera. Ixion mated with a fake hera that zeus made to test ixion. That resulted in the centaurs which are wild,lusty creatures just like their father.

Quaoar is a transneptunian that is cubewano which means classical kuiper belt object,orbits beyond Pluto, and it is named after Native American Tongva tribe creation god.

I have Moon trine Sun-Ixion-Quaoar conjunction myself.


Your Sun conjunct Pluto also fits the bill. With a transneptunian conjunct the Sun, you can attract nonconformist type of men.


I think that you would be better off with spiritually oriented partners though. That's a positive of transneptunian energy.

I am interested in only spiritually oriented women. I want the type of gal that I would meet at my interfaith unity church,intuitive healing arts fair,or some type of spiritual seminar. I have been involved with those wild,badgirl types when I was in the navy......one of them was a daughter of the owner of RH Philips winery, and she was a gal that drank and did drugs. I got rejected by her for an exbf in prison.

transneptunians are evolutionary intensified objects.

so it seems that you are going through evolutionary intensified relationships with men just like I have evolutionary intensified relationships with women.

Yep Raymond, Ixion is conj my desc exact, Nessus is square my sun 1 deg, and Chiron is in my 1st conj acs and opposing mercury 1 deg. I also attract a lot of attention, I tend to magnatize others to me and people always tell me I am different, though I don't try to be or try to look it(ie I don't have tatts, piercings, or pink hair).
I think maybe your really on to something.. And Lara I know exactly what you are going through! I've purposelly Made myself date several average joe, super responsable types and I'm falling asleep in 20 minutes for god's sake.

"Nessus is square my sun 1 deg"

Nessus is THE BADBOY of the centaurs too.
that could be in synchronicity with you attracting bad boys.

I have Venus quincunx Nessus myself.

If I remember right, Lara's Sun is conjunct the heliocentric North Eris Node in Taurus. That's like having Sun conjunct Eris, but the heliocentric Eris Node is very slow moving like all heliocentric object nodes (up to 1 degree per century),and so it has to do with the collective. Therefore,it's more significant than having Sun conjunct Eris. I have Sun conjunct the heliocentric South Eris Node in Scorpio myself.

Her Sun conjunct heliocentric North Eris Node
That could indicate her attraction to nonconformist,divergent men which could be controversial,troublemaking,and intolerant of diversity,not believing in equality.

but if she wants to and chooses to do it, she can attract men that are spiritually oriented,tolerant of diversity,equality-oriented,and even and advocate who fights for a positive cause like equal rights. Those are positives of Eris.

To me, Eris is like showing people who think their sh-t doesn't stink really does stink. I felt that she did that when she threw her golden apple at the wedding and the goddesses went after it,claiming it to be theirs, exposing their petty vanities. Eris was seen as the troublemaker of the gods, but the thing was that gods were also troublemakers and did bad things. Heck..she didn't cause the Trojan War either. Aphrodite promised the married Helen to Paris for the golden apple. After all,she didn't care about her marriage vows. She was having sex with other men (both immortal and mortal) while married to Hephaestus. I think Eris probably had issues with Aphrodite. She was supposed to be the twin sister of Ares,but she never got appointed as one of the 12 major deities of Olympus even though she's the daughter of both Zeus and Hera. She was said to be an ugly goddess. On the contrast, Aphrodite has no parentage in connected to Zeus or Hera,but she was made a major deity of Olympus. All because of her astounding beauty. is it a coincidence that Eris' perihelion is in Libra and Eris' North Node is in Taurus?

Eris can be about stirring up stuff and raise hell,but it can be to shake up an unfair status quo. Civil Rights advocates are perfect example. Martin Luther King Jr. went to jail many times for disobeying the Jim Crow laws. He was an advocate of civil disobedience to get those racist,segregation laws abolished. He had a stationary direct Chiron conjunct heliocentric North Eris Node in Taurus. His wife,Correta had Sun conjunct heliocentric North Eris Node in Taurus, and she was also a civil rights leader.

From what you've described from your chart, Scrappydog, I can definitely see why you are attracted to unusual types. Look at your transits too, because if, lets say, Uranus is being triggered by transit this can even heighten the fondness for eccentricity.

lol I totally relate! Though I dont normally go for bad boys as such, just people who are unusual ... though I have been with people who have done bad things in their past, which I don't admire at all! (I don't mind tats and all that, I just don't go for ppl who break the law eg shoplifting, vandalism, etc where other people are hurt by it).

The Nessus/Ixion info is definitely worth researching more

Nessus is sextile my NN but also conjuncts my sun/moon mp (2), venus/pluto mp(1), venus/saturn mp(5), moon/chiron mp (3) and opposes my mercury/saturn mp (2)

Ixion is conjunct my MC (1), Mars (3), Saturn (5), mars/saturn mp (1), opposes my Sun (5), Venus (5), trines Lilith (exact), squares venus/mars mp (1)

Idk, I like guys like that too. I don't think it's an "affliction." There's just something attractive about it. And in your case, you're also attracted to people who come from different backgrounds than you (Mars in Sag?). I have Mars in Sag, too with Uranus conjunt the DSC. Although if a male model type in a $3,000 was walking down the street, I'd definitely look twice lol.

I recently got broken up with and so I've decided to either date skateboarders or straight edge kids (A+ if they are both). These types tend to have tattoos and the straight edge kids tend to be violent.

I'm told that my being fascinated by people somewhat transgendered (the 80s provided many famous examples of women dressed like dumpster diving men and also of men--even the ones playing tough guys--who wore long hair, flowing clothes, and lipstick) is from my Pluto in Libra. By fascination, I don't necessarily mean sexually attracted to or romantically inclined toward (but it helps). It may influence why I seem more into women than men, too, but given that there have always been lesbians and blesbians (bi women more into women, which I consider myself, but usually just say "lesbian" for simplicity's sake), I hesitate to point to that. But Pluto in Libra may have affected my own appearance since I was usually tomboyish in appearance for a long time (without thinking about it--for example, by keeping my hair short, it was not only easier to take care of but minimized helmet hair from skateboarding and from sitting by open windows in vehicles without AC under the hot Texas sun).

Aside from that, I'm also drawn to the unusual, though not really the "bad guys." 'Course given my background, a guy off GQ would be far more unusual for me than some tattooed biker. But overall, I don't really have control over who I find myself attracted to (and I haven't noticed that much of a pattern, it seems almost random to me, like rolling dice to see how I react--really frustrating to me sometimes).

In your case, it could be you're drawn to these guys because they speak to something repressed within you. Maybe they represent personal power, individuality, or the like, which you may subconsciously feel repressed in yourself, and being drawn to these guys is a manifestation of that (I think Jung described this in detail, IIRC). Not that you necessarily wanna pull a "Thelma & Louise," but maybe you'd like to trash the expectations foisted on you and become who you really are rather than the person your family & community expect you to be.

Btw, I was born in Houston in October, too (Oct 21, 1982, very close to 3 AM, IIRC)

ETA: I also have Mars and Uranus (and Moon) in Sag, for whatever that's worth.

Wow, I have this issue as well!! I hate pretty boys, anyone who lacks originality or some sort of outward uniqueness!... anyone who lacks spontaneity or excitement... anyone that feels too "safe" .... and well this has landed me in some pretty tough situations over the years I blame my Aries Venus for this!

Bad boys?? Been there, done that... got old REALLY quickly... It's not necessarily that I go for bad boys with sleeved out tats or anything like that, It's just that I purposefully look for people that are a little left of center... maybe because I feel that they are the only ones that will be able to handle MY eccentricity?

I have:

Ixion opposite Sun
Quaoar opposite Sun
Ixion exact conjunct Quaoar
Ixion biquintile Venus exact
Ixion trine Mars
Ixion sextile Saturn
Ixion conjunct BML
Quaoar trine Mars
Quaoar biquintile Venus
Quaoar sextile Saturn
Quaoar conjunct BML
Nessus trine Sun exact
Eris conjunct Venus exact
Eris quincunx Pluto
Eris square Neptune
Eris square Chiron
Chiron trine Moon
Chiron conjunct Jupiter
Chiron square Venus
Chiron opposite Uranus
Chiron opposite Neptune exact
Chiron trine Pluto

I'm not quite sure if those are all relevant or not, but which aspects would account for the craving for originality in a partner? What would account for the eccentricity in myself?

@ scrappydog

I'm just like you - almost exclusively attracted to unusual people: bad boys, artists, musicians..., people who strive for independence and who are capable to remain free. Uranus is very prominent in my chart - conjuncting ASC ( exactly ), squaring Venus, opposing Moon. Also in trine with Mars ( my chart ruler ) - Jupiter conjunction.

But, I think I like it

Sun trine Nessus,Sun oppose BML-Ixion-Quaoar conjunction and Mars trine BML-Ixion Quaoar conjunction could indicate the attraction to nonconformist men.

all the centaur,transneptunian aspects that you listed....especially involving your personal planets,angles can indicate the eccentricity in you

true black moon lilith is also nonconformist type of energy but is also a female,feminist type of energy. I have Sun conjunct true BML which trines my Moon.

Thanks Glaucus! So is that why I always attract people who are unusual as well?

It's like Lara and scrappydog and others have said... I've tried dating a stable, regular person and it just doesn't work! I get bored

Venus-Eris conjunction square Chiron,quincunx Pluto would also fit with lovelife,relationships that are nonconforming.

Just out of curiosity, would those into "bad boys" above as they're "unusual" also be into an artsy goth? (NOTE: NOT referring to those who cut, drink blood, openly practice S&M, etc, that fill the popular imagination but seem to me to be true of only a few.) Such guys are unusual, but many are feminine in appearance and often easygoing in attitude. But your mother would still freak if you brought him home at his most flamboyant.

Mainly, I'm curious if it's into "unusual" you like, or "dangerous."

Also, it seems to me that the romance genre is filled with "bad boys" (maybe a rich bad boy, but bikers to pirates are also known) being reformed by women. 'Course erotica seems to love making various supernatural men who are dangerous (typically vampires, but also others) the focus, and such typically has a wide female readership. Not so much with less dangerous unusual types, like elves (though that does also exist, just not on the best seller list).

Btw, lots of guys seem drawn to the "dangerous women" (as opposed to "unusual"), too. Just take a look at their video games and comic books. (One web site had a lot of men saying they wanted to "marry River" from Serenity after she hacked a part a bunch of Reavers with blades, but she'd long been unusual before the crew & audience found out she'd been driven crazy as part of a government program to change her into a living weapon. That is, it wasn't that she was unusual that attracted them, but her ability to hack apart monsters coupled with a somewhat psychotic disposition that made her unpredictable & potentially dangerous even to those close to her.)

Well... what I notice with men specifically... is this attraction to danger is more to do with a sexual level of attraction... It's a fantasy they have. I've spoken to many men about this and time and time again, they've told me that the reason they're attracted to these kinds of women is because they're usually really "wild in bed."

For me, it's not on a sexual level that I'm attracted to unusual types. I find that it's more on a mental level. I just find them exciting to be with on an every-day basis and they're more intellectually stimulating as well.

How so?

Btw, I grew up around "bad boys" of all kinds. My ancestors include Wild West bank robbers and outlaws and today has many tattooed rednecks who are on the wild side, won't hesitate to kick some butt, and make the kids ride in the back of their trucks (one more reason I liked to keep my hair short back then) while their guns rode in the front. I've also been around many, like at 15 I was in a krew of runaway kids which included a few adults and some adults who mixed with us and also used us to help them in their own crimes or swindles. At 16 I hitchhiked from TX to CA, meeting all kinds of druggies and dysfunctional people on the journey. And I could go on.

The point being, I'm not just ignorantly assuming that they're all mentally slow because they're "bad." From my experience many of them are pretty much just as smart & dumb, dogmatic & creative, kind & cruel, honorable & dishonorable as anyone in straight society, the differences being more cosmetic and/or socially enforced rather than substantial. But I also don't know what you mean by "intellectually stimulating."

Do you mean them specifically (what they say)? Or just that they bring a different perspective and/or seem a little exotic? If the latter, then you're saying you'd find a peaceful skinny goth who is also exotic (and often smarter, in my experience--probably has to be to keep from getting beat up all the time ) just as you would some outlaw type?
