I think all over the place, total scatterbrain working a million miles a minute with very little focus. I have 6 windows open atm, two spreadsheets, 2 pieces of correspondence and several billing statements. Multi task is not even the word for it... LOL ]

I am getting a bit better at this!

I think quickly and with great focus. I can get to the root of a problem with ease, and come up with a variety of solutions (lucky really, as that's my job). I used to think that the reason people couldn't keep up with me was down to laziness or lack of intellect, but have recently realised that I have a real gift. I am working on trying to slow down, to take people with me, but I do find it frustrating.

I am not an intellectual. I don't seek out knowledge unless I can use it, and then generally discard it once it's served it's purpose.

This is how I explored my thought processes without the use of signs and houses but focusing on the following things
that are outside the norm of Mainstream Astrology

A 21st Century Astrology which embraces the recent discoveries of Astronomy when it comes to transneptunians and centaurs as well dealing with astronomical coordinates of Declination and Right Ascension that astronomers use unlike astrologers which use Ecliptic Longitude.

Magi Society,Cosmobiology influenced me to work with declinations
Theodor Landscheidt,Zipporah Dobyns,Jeffrey Wolf Green,astronomers influenced me to work with Geocentric Planetary Nodes
Carl Tobey Payne,Pamela Rowe,Roy MacKinnon influenced me to work with Heliocentric Planetary Nodes
Diana Rosenberg, Bernadette Brady influenced me to work with Fixed Stars
Jonathan Dunn,Roy MacKinnon,astronomers influenced me to work with Right Ascension
Zane Stein,Jonathan Dunn,Mark Andrew Holmes,Roy MacKinnon influenced me work with transneptunians,centaurs
Johannes Kepler influenced me to work with quintile,biquintile,sesquiquadrate
Cosmobiology,Uranian Astrology,Kepler,Magi Astrology influenced me work with semisquare,sesquiquadrate
Theodor Landschedit influenced to work with Golden Section Aspects
a lot of astrologers influenced me work with Asteroids
Cosmobiology,Uranian Astrology,Kepler,Magi Astrology,Theodor Landscheidt influenced me to work with only aspects, ignoring signs and houses.

Golden Section Aspects
gs1 21'15
gs2 34'24
gs3 42'29
gs4 47'30
gs5 55'35
gs6 68'48
gs7 111'15
gs8 124'22
gs9 132'29
gs10 137'30
gs11 145'37
gs12 158'45

Eris,Pluto,Makemake,and Haumea are transneptunian dwarf planets aka Plutoids.
Ceres is the only asteroid dwarf planet
2007 OR10 is a transneptunian scattered disk object like Eris. It is smaller than Sedna but larger than Quaoar which is larger than dwarf planet, Ceres. Therefore, it easily makes dwarf planet criteria. It is the largest unnamed discovered object in our solar system.
It's a dwarf planet candidate along with Sedna,Orcus,Quaoar,Varuna,Ixion,2002 AW197,2002 TX300, 2003 AZ84,2007 UK126

Transneptunians and Centaurs tend to orbit well off the ecliptic, and so their orbits diverge from the orbits of planets that tend to orbit on the ecliptic. male centaurs like Chiron,Pholus,Asbolus have more eccentric orbits compared to female centaurs like Chariklo.....so they will be more nonconformist
so Transneptunians and Centaurs in aspect to Mercury could be associated with divergent thinking
Centaurs are said to actually originate in the transneptunian region

Transneptunians orbit beyond Neptune, and so they are highly metaphysically oriented energies, ......in aspect to Mercury.....the mind can be highly metaphysically oriented including being extremely sensitive to subtleties which can also include sensory defensiveness like in sensory integration issues

Heliocentric Nodes of all objects are move very slowly, and so have to do with collective connections,associations,meetings,karma
Geocentric Nodes of the inner planets, asteroids move relatively quickly, and so have to do with personal connections,assocaitions,meetings,karma
Geocentric Nodes of Jupiter,Saturn,centaurs,outerplanets,and transneptunians move very slowly, and so have to do with collective connections,associations,meetings,karma

Regular Aspects (Ecliptic Longitude and Right Ascension)
5 degree orb for conjunction,opposition,trine,square
3 degree orb for sextile
1 1/2 degree orb for quincunx,semisextile,sesquiquadrate,semisquare,quintile,biquintile
1 degree orb for golden section aspects

1 degree orb for declinations

Geocentric, Heliocentric Nodes of Planets
2 degree orb - ptolemaic aspects only

Fixed Stars
1 degree orb - conjunctions only

I keep the orbs smaller for transneptunian dwarf planets(includes Pluto),asteroids when it comes to all types of aspects

1 degree orb for geocentric,heliocentric nodes
3 degree orb for conjunction,opposition,trine,square
2 degree orb for sextile
1 degree for quincunx,semisextile,sesquiquadrate,semisquare,quintile,biquintile
30 minutes of arc for golden section aspects

30 minutes of arc for declinations

Geocentric,Heliocentric Nodes of asteroids,transneptunians,centaurs
1 degree orb - ptolemaic aspects only
(I didn't look at asteroid nodes,centaur nodes)

Fixed Stars
I don't use with minor objects

Now Looking at my Chart:

In Ecliptic Longitude
Mercury
in 18'21 Scorpio - emotional,feeling-oriented,intuitive,sensitive
in 3rd house - areas of communications,mental activity, siblings,early education
Mercury in the constellation of Libra - The Scales,formerly The Claws of the Scorpion........justice,judgment

In earlier times, Libra was represented not by a balance, but as the claws of a scorpion. The reason is a confused translation of the words zubānā in Arabic and zibanitu in Akkadian, which mean both 'weighing scale' and 'scorpion'. In ancient Mesopotamia, a weighing scale was often the arm and the pans without a stand, and was hung up by a string tied to the midpoint of the arm, resulting in a close resemblance to a scorpion hung up by the end of its tail with its arms stretched out.

The double meaning of zibanitu resulted in the constellation being called Chelae Scorpionis (the scorpion's claws), and it originally formed part of the claws of the Scorpius. The modern Libra is the youngest of the Zodiac signs and the only one not to represent a living creature. In Greek mythology, Libra is considered to depict the scales held by Astraea (identified as Virgo), the goddess of justice

travel rate - 1 degree,30 minutes - so fast Mercury......information from my environment comes in quickly, could indicate quick thinking, but also restlessness,high strung

standard aspects to Mercury:
conjunct Venus in 21'47 Scorpio - aesthetic mind, communicates sweetly (as in sound of voice)
oppose/conjunct Heliocentric Mercury Nodes in 18'00 Taurus/Scorpio - collective connection with communications,intellect,versatility (MAXIMUM EFFECTIVENESS)
oppose/conjunct Heliocentric Mars Nodes in 19'21 Taurus/Scorpio - collective connection,associations,meetings with passion,assertion,anger,violence
sextile Geocentric South Saturn Node in 18'00 Capricorn - collective connection,associations,meetings with discipline,structure
sextile Geocentric South Venus Node in 18'53 Virgo - personal connection,associations,meetings with aesthetics,love,harmony,relationships

extra aspects to Mercury:
conjunct Zuben Hakrabi in 18'22 Scorpio - Nu Libra star, with it being in Libra contellation, it has to do with justice,judgment
conjunct Zuben Elschamali in 18'58 Scorpio - Beta Libra star, according Bernadette Brady - social justice,reform
square Makemake in 16'20 Leo - named after Rapanui Fertility Creation God
square 2007 OR10 in 16'35 Aquarius - it's a transneptunian dwarf planet candidate
sextile Geocentric South Pluto Node in 18'18 Capricorn - collective connection,association,meetings with intensity,transformation
biquintile Eris - '06 - diversity,dialectic process,controversy,discord,equality-oriented,advocacy
47'30 (Golden Section Aspect) Pluto - '00 - transformation,intensity,penetration,secretive can be obsession,compulsion

Heliocentric Nodes of all objects are collective because they move very slowly
Geocentric Nodes of Jupiter and objects beyond are collective because they move slowly

In Declinations
Mercury 18'24 South
parallel Venus 18'10 South - aesthetics,communicates sweetly,relationships,partnerships,love,harmony
parallel Neptune 18'57 South - imagination,visualization,receptiveness,idealism,inspiration, nonlinear but also confusion,disorientation,deception,illusion,distortion,absentminded,disorganized (fits with issues of neurodivergence)
contraparallel Saturn 19'02 North - structure,discipline,pragmatism,practical,logic,linear

In Right Ascension

Standard Aspects:
Mercury in 15'32 Scorpio
conjunct Venus in 19'22 Scorpio - aesthetics, communicates sweetly,relationships,partnerships,love
square Geocentric North Neptune Node in 15'49 Leo - collective connection,associations with imagination,idealism,inspiration,mysticism,but also deception,confusion,disorientation,illusion
square Ceres in 18'09 Leo - practical,pragmatism,nurturing,caring,food-related,wants to provide for,possessive
square Lunar Nodes in 12'56 Aquarius/Leo - connections,associations,meetings
21'15 (Golden Section Aspect) Jupiter - '10 - expansive,philosophical, optimistic, but also judgmental,excessive,indulgent,preachy

Extra Aspects:
conjunct Zuben Elakribi in 14'51 Scorpio - Gamma Libra star - justice,judgment
conjunct Nekkar in 15'13 Scorpio - Beta Bootes star - custodianship and responsibility for the safekeeping of assets
conjunct Brachium in 15'36 Scorpio - Sigma Libra star - justice,judgment
conjunct Zuben Hakrabi in 16'15 Scorpio - Nu Libra star - justice,judgment
trine Chariklo in 16'03 Pisces R - centaur orbits between Saturn and Uranus, wife of Chiron, could relate to relationship boundaries
square Asbolus in 17'07 Leo - centaur that links the orbits of Neptune and Pluto...named after a diviner....could relate to foresight
biquintile Chiron - '43 - a centaur that links the orbits of Saturn and Uranus, has a Saturn-Uranus quality about it..maverick,healing,teaching
55'35 (Golden Section Aspect) Haumea - '19 - creative,metaphysically oriented...transneptunian named after Hawaiian Fertility Creation Goddess
111'15 (Golden Section Aspect) Pholus - '03 - a centaur links the orbits of Saturn and Neptune, has a Saturn-Neptune quality about it, it could be about grounded idealism,controlling addictions, structured imagination

I focus on strong themes.

I have very strong Mercury theme with Mercury oppose/conjunct heliocentric Mercury Nodes - so strong emphasis on communications,intellect.....can be very nervous,highstrung,restless....overactive nervous system
The fast travel rate also adds to that
Mercury oppose/conjunct heliocentric Mars Nodes could indicate more emphasis on the overactive,restlessmind

I have a very strong Mercury-Venus theme with 3 Mercury-Venus connections through Ecliptic Longitude,Declination,Right Ascension,Geocentric Planetary Nodes - aesthetic,relationship oriented as involving diplomacy......I do sound a little too sweet,softspoken

I have a very strong Mercury-transneptunian theme with 5 Mercury-Transneptunian connections through Ecliptic Longitude including Geocentric Nodes and Golden Section Aspects - so very strong emphasis on highly metaphysically oriented,divergent thinking as well as intensified evolutionary lessons fits with neurodivergence...extreme sensitivity to subtleties, can fit with oversensitive nervous system like in sensory defensiveness in sensory integration issues common in neurodivergence - can be mistaken for psychotic

I have a very strong Mercury-centaur theme with 4 Mercury-Centaur connections through Right Ascension including regular aspects,golden section aspects.......so very strong emphasis on metaphysical orientation,nonconformity,divergent thinking.....not as pronounced as the transneptunians though.

I have a very strong Mercury-Libra theme with Mercury in the constellation of Libra and connected to 2 Libra stars in Ecliptic Longitude including the Beta star and 3 Libra Stars in Right Ascension - judgment,justice

I have a strong Mercury-Neptune theme with Mercury-Neptune connections through Declinations, Right Ascension Geocentric Planetary Node - a very imaginative,visualizing,receptive,idealistic,metaphysically oriented mind but also oversensitive nervous system like in sensory defensiveness in sensory integration issues, can be prone to confusion,distortion,absentmindedness,disorganization and misunderstandings fits with neurodivergence and psychiatric misdiagnoses....in Medical Astrology, Neptune rules misdiagnoses and drugs,medications
Mercury-Pholus aspect which is like a Mercury-Saturn-Neptune could also add to the Mercury-Neptune theme

I have a strong Mercury-Pluto theme with Mercury-Pluto connections through Golden Section Aspect and Geocentric Planetary Node (both in Ecliptic Longitude) - intense,penetrating,deep,subtle,hyperfocusing mind, but also obsessive,compulsive......can also fit with highly metaphysically oriented mind, oversensitive nervous system like in sensory defensiveness in sensory integration issues common in neurodivergence with it being a transneptunian.....can be mistaken for psychotic

I have a strong Mercury-Saturn theme with Mercury-Saturn connections through Declinations, Ecliptic Geocentric Planetary Node - logical,practical,linear mind that involve structure,discipline.....but can also be skeptical,rigid,insecure of intellect,pessimistic (especially with Mercury contraparallel Saturn which is like Mercury oppose Saturn)
add the strong Mercury-Pluto theme, can analyze,be skeptical,critical,needs proof and will investigate,probe, can be rigid,not budge,obstinate

The combination of my very strong Mercury-transneptunian theme,very strong Mercury-centaur and strong Neptune theme overpower the strong Mercury-Saturn theme to the point that mind is far more nonlinear than linear. The very strong Mercury-Venus theme with it adds to the rightbrainedness of the combination of the very strong Mercury-transneptunian theme and the strong Neptune theme, but adds to the tactile learning (needing to touch things) of the strong Mercury-Saturn. ........can be mistaken for psychotic

this site is good for the work that I am doing.

i am very jittery and can't sit still for long periods of time. my mind is light years ahead in conversations. i space out often and go to other places(that could be the aqua sun or neptune and jupiter on top of my ascendant)

[Quote My Mercury is in Pisces...and for most of my life I have always told people what I thought they wanted to hear. I was the guy that would wait in line when someone cut him off just to keep the peace because I was always so aware of everyones thoughts around me. And I used to be and still am when I listen to my egos voices....sooooo needy...needing love..from every thing and everyone, and that was so rough..not realizing I had enough love inside for myself and when I gave to myself I had an infinite amount to give to others.
I debate often with my fellow Astrologers the belief that Mercury is in detriment in Pisces and I guess this is true..One must learn how to have a strong connection to ones soul, in other words you must always be making an effort to "know thy self", as we are constantly changing as we grow, but at the same time one must have a very loving connection the themselves too, only then does one find fulfilment in an unconditional devotion to something greater than oneself, because a Pisces Mercury was meant to merge with the Universe around it and gain strength through that Oneness. Knowledge of the microcosms fit into the macrocosm.

So I think the gift of Pisces in Mecury is also its weakness...and that does create a sort of detriment..as the balancing edge is always razor sharp.]

Even world's foremost astrolloger Noel Tyl and others into Noel Tyl Astrology use the 24th harmonic aspect of 165 degrees which Noel Tyl calls "the quindecile", Robert Blascke calls "the contraquindecile"
It is also known as "the johndro"

Noel Tyl thinks of it as major aspect, and even includes in midpoint pictures.
I don't agree with his view of the 165 degree aspect. Robert Blaschke doesn't either.

in my own chart:

The 11th harmonic is very prominent in my chart.

according to astrologer, Robert Blaschke in the book, ASTROLOGY A LANGUAGE OF LIFE VOLUME II - SABIAN ASPECT ORBS,
The Eleventh Harmonic symbolizes the disruption and the restoration to wholeness of the spiritual vibrations of any group that has been profaned,betrayed,deceived,or wounded by an individual member. By logical assocation, the astrologer can presume that individuals with these aspects between planets can either be agents or ruin of healers within groups,first by observing the group dynamics, then by exerting a subtle spiritual force that either serves to polarize, or to reunify and make whole the organization or association. This further elucidates the number eleven and its correlations with Aquarius the eleventh house and participation within groups.

Mercury triundecile Mars - '37
Mercury quinqueundecile Saturn - '25
Mercury undecile Uranus - '19
Mercury quinequendecile Sedna - '07
Mercury biundecile Ascendant - '33

Mars triundecile Saturn - 1'02
Mars quadraundecile Uranus - '18
Mars biundecile Sedna - '45
Mars quinundecile Ascendant - 1'11

Saturn quadraundecile Uranus - '44
Saturn undecile Sedna - '17
Saturn triundecile Ascendant - '08

Uranus quinquenundecile Sedna - '26
Uranus undecile Ascendant - '52

Sedna quadraundecile Ascendant - '26

Sedna is a transneptunian dwarf planet candidate (larger than dwarf planet, Ceres),and so it will soon join Pluto,Makemake,Haumea,and Ceres as a dwarf planet. It has the greatest average distance of all the objects in the Solar System, hypothesized to be an Inner Oort cloud object. With Sedna involved, there is the the divergence,nonconformity,highly metaphysical orientation, "Way Out There"

Mercury,Saturn,Uranus,and Sedna are in a 11th harmonic isosceles trapezoid with corresponding midpoint pictures of
Mercury oppose Saturn/Sedna - '16
Uranus oppose Mercury/Sedna - '17
Mercury/Uranus oppose Saturn/Sedna - '03

Uranus,Mercury,and Ascendant aspect each other in 11th harmonic with corresponding midpoint picture of
Uranus conjunct Mercury/Ascendant - '36

Mars,Saturn,and Uranus aspect each other in 11th harmonic with corresponding midpoint picture of
Uranus oppose Mercury/Saturn - '13

Mercury,Mars,Saturn,Ascendant aspect each other in 11th harmonic with corresponding midpoint picture of
Mercury/Ascendant oppose Mars/Saturn - '23

so Mercury,Mars,Saturn,Uranus,and Ascendant aspect each other in 11th harmonic with corresponding midpoint picture of
Uranus = Mars/Saturn = Mercury/Ascendant

Mercury,Mars,and Saturn are in 11th harmonic triangle with corresponding midpoint picture
Mars oppose Mercury/Saturn - '50

Mars,Saturn,and Ascendant aspect each other in 11th harmonic with corresponding midpoint picture of
Saturn oppose Mars/Ascendant - '27

other aspects that are 11th harmonic
Sun undecile Jupiter - '12
Moon triundecile Midheaven - '07

I was born on the 29th, and so the 11 is big part of my personality traits, I am in 11th 2nd cycle also known as productive that last that started when I was 33 and ends when I turn 60 years old
My rational thought number (my way of thinking derived the summation of the first name and day of birth)is 11.

so there seems to be a correlation between Numerology and Astrology when it comes to my personality and how I think.

I believe that my prominent 11th harmonic involving my Mercury,Mars,Saturn,Uranus,Sedna,Ascendant reflects me as a person that doesn't neurologically conform to the norm aka neurotypical. It also fits with my path of being advocate in helping understand and accept neurodivergents as equals and my future of forming a nonprofit neurodiversity organization. It fits with my desire to push for education reform that includes replacing auditory sequential teaching methods with multisensory teaching methods to make sure that neurodivergent students don't have problems in school, don't get unnecessary diagnosis of "learning disabled",and don't get placed in special education programs,and unnecessary medicating. It fits with my desire to push for psychiatric reform that includes psychiatrists having their patients do neurological and psychological testing to differentiate neurodivergence from psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia to cut down on psychiatric misdiagnoses and unnecessary medicating.

I have an 18th harmonic aspect

according to Robert Blaschke:
these aspects define the journey of those willing to go into the wilderness of the unconscious to unite the lower and higher selves, achieved through an elevated state of spiritual consciousness after battle with the lower mind

Mercury seminovile Jupiter - '03

I also have Sun seminovile Uranus - '03

I have a planetary picture of
Sun/Mercury conjunct Jupiter/Uranus - '03
(planetary pictures are used in Hamburg School/Uranian Astrology,Magi Astrology,and David Cochrane's 21st Century Harmonic Astrology)

To the Cancer Mercury's --it seems you are dreamy,imaginative, very intuitive.
Do the hard parts of Cancer play a part in your mind ,too, like indecisiveness and fearfulness?
I am Cancer moon and like it but it has it's hard side, too.

Quinnie,

we both have Mercury in Scorpio

Your tendency to daydream could be indicated by your Neptune in 3rd which I share with you. I have other other things that add to the theme include Mercury parallel Neptune, Mercury square Geocentric South Neptune Node in Right Ascension, and Mercury conjunct Sun/Neptune midpoint.

I daydreamed a lot in school, especially when I was bored because the school material seemed dry,didn't understand what the teacher was lecturing about, or all of the above.

Neptune in 3rd and similar signatures can indicate a person who has a receptive,imaginative, visualizing type of mind. keyword - dissolution in the areas of the mind,communications.

That's how I am. I think in pictures all the time, visualize in my mind's eye nonstop,and have extremely sensitive nervous system.

another thing

there is already scientific studies confirming that daydreaming is connected to problem solving

I overthink things. I find it hard to stop & focus on just the one thing, so when there's more than one thing to be done nothing gets done

When I have a big task to finish I see the big picture, all and everything that needs to be done at once.
It's like I can always see the mountain ahead but I find it difficult seeing the steps I need to take to conquer it.
I have to sit down with pen and paper and break it all down into bite sized bits just to get to the point where I'm not overwhelmed and can say, 'maybe I can do this'.
I also find it hard knowing where to begin.
