I was reading up on Aspect Patterns and had a quick look at my chart and there it was staring at me in the face!!

It's between
Pluto 0/Sco/09
Neptune 1/Cap/01
Chiron 2/Gem/10

I was reading this website http://www.therealastrology.com/HTML/FAQS/AspectPatterns.html

"Yods tend to represent a crisis in timing. What usually happens when a Yod is triggered is that we tend to react too quickly with the first sextile planet, and then we tend to wait too long to respond with the second sextile planet. The release point, the time when it is truly appropriate to take action, is the point opposite the Apex planet, which is also the midpoint of the sextile. When a Yod has been integrated and when we actually learn when and how to respond with it, the sextile planets tend to work together to stimulate a significant shift in how the apex planet functions."

I'm not sure how to interpret this as the energy involves Chiron at the apex point! If anyone has any insights into this, it would be muchly appreciated

Please let me know if you would like me to post my chart.

I also noticed that one of the planets sits on the antiscia axis and the article suggests that this can help balance the quincunx effects?

I think Chiron being one of the planets has thrown me out and I don't know how to interpret it lol .. so any help is muchly appreciated XD

neptune 19 sag
pluto 20 libra
moon 20 taurus

interestingly my uranus is 20 scorpio (oh my poor moon! nevermind the other squares to it!) so my uranus IS the midpoint. i'm not sure exactly how to work this through either, but it certainly seems key!

i'll think about how else chiron might figure into this and get back to you later!

It's a really transformative period for me, and on top of the eclipses.. it's all getting a bit much! I haven't even gone through my Saturn return yet! XP

So I'm trying to focus on what I have learned from my past failings/hurts if that makes sense... and try and make changes within myself so I am better equipped for the future. I hope that's sort of balancing the yod out (I was trying to do this before I read up about it anyway). It's a very confusing and frustrating energy to work with by the sounds of it. I read up on tChiron-nSun aspect - which is about learning to love yourself and building self respect ... so with tChiron also activating this I am learning to have much more self-respect and learning not to have to prove myself to people I guess. It's probably more apparent now as the yod is being activated by tPluto.

I think I am finding this hard to interpret because of all the activity going on for me at the moment and my mind is going a bit cloudy hehehe .. so thanks again for replying, it sort of just helped kickstart my brain into making more sense of all of this! (Though I am far from figuring it all out lol)

woah city,

Synchronicity eh!!

If you go to the link I posted above, just underneath the yod description is an explanation of a boomerang. This is what you are describing. This is like a yod but your sextile midpoint it focused already by the third planet opposing the quincunxed planet, making it a bit easier to sort out.

Because Neptune and Pluto occur through a generation, I'd tend to believe that the "harmony" of those planets occurs through your peer group, and your particular "wounds" and ability to heal are hard to relate to others' ideas of transformation and spirituality. Look up what Capricorn and Scoprio stand for, and see how different they are from Gemini, and also see how these three signs might find some common ground.

I have found that yods can actually be really powerful tools. I have a total of 5 quincunx in my chart so that whole balancing act is nothing new to me. In a way it makes having a yod easier.

I had to count it myself. They are at 154 degrees from each other. Is that too wide or something? I read a description of this aspect from astroweekly and it is way too accurate...

That's an orb of 4 and generally thought to be too far for a quincunx. Personally, I only count a quincunx if the orb is 0, 1, or, 2. Any larger then that and the effects to which it is felt drops off pretty significantly.

Just because somethings describes you well, doesn't mean that it has to come from that aspect. My jupiter and mercury are 9 orb apart from each other, which is just too far for a conjunction. Nevertheless when I read the description of that it fits me super super well. Yet, that doesn't mean I have that aspect. What that aspect explains can actually be found through other aspects and placements that I have in my chart elsewhere.

Beware the forer effect.
