Ami - I think the Cancer in you loves the Scorpio in you -- and that love is mutual.However, the Gemini in you (which is strong) only *likes* Cancer.. and not Scorpio. Gemini is quincunx Scorpio which can be an aspect of uneasiness and tension. IP: Logged |

quote: I was allowed and encouraged to be the sweet Cancer moon but shamed and humiliated for the strong Scorpio
I just thought of something else. Your M has several Aquarius planets and a Taurus Mars (that is incompatible with Scorpio). It makes sense that she didn't understand this side of you. In particular.. there are many differences (in several important areas of life, not the least of which is sexuality) between Aquarian detachment and Scorpionic intensity. IP: Logged |

You are so sweet to me (((Dyn-a-mite)) That makes so much sense. My Scorpio parts were made to feel so unacceptable and I have suffered a great deal from rejecting them. Thank you SO much for your insight. It is invaluable! Ami

I have mercury in cancer and venus in leo. I love mercury in aries. They are the best to talk to and it also sextiles my gemini moon and falls in my 7th house.I also love sag mercury but not so much leo mercury which is conjunct my AC. Theyre not as fun. IP: Logged |

I have Mercury in Libra, 3rd house. It's also my chart ruler which probably makes it even more significant for me and in general I tend to react more strongly to Mercury placements than I do to Sun. Mercury aspects and (it's placement) are among the most significant indicators in relationships - at least for me personally. Generally I enjoy air and fire Mercuries, Scorpio and Pisces are also fine, Virgo a bit critical but ok. I have a really hard time dealing with Mercury square Mercury, particularly Mercury in Capricorn. It feels like they misunderstand me all the time and we just don't "click", it can be problematic even if the rest of the aspects between our charts would be fine. *sigh* I wish it wouldn't have be that way...

I used to think everyone thought in the same way too. They definitely don't.  With Sco, it feels like everything on the surface is a metaphor for what's going on underneath. I'm perceiving that inner layer first and foremost. It's like I'm emotionally merged with the other person. At parties and during most social situations, I use my Mercury as a tool to foster a good time. IP: Logged |

Missa -Oh, that makes sense. I was wondering why the lack of harmony with Cap Mercuries saddens you. Your Virgo Venus trine Cap must love the Cap Mercury placement, so the incompatibility must hurt.  I guess you don't feel yourself communicating through your Venus as well? Since it disposits your Mercury, your Venus may be able to function in a Mercury way. IP: Logged |

Dear Jane Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your post on Pluto/MC/IC. I am so grateful to you that I have no words. I was feeling embarrassed about how I kept repeating myself on LL about the same thing. I was trying to find how how and why. Thank you for taking the time ,effort and care to put it together for me. Love you Jane, Ami IP: Logged |

Your insight here is magnificent, too, Jane. I managed to maintain my sanity for as long as I did and even stay somewhat sane now cuz I could see under the surface. If anything saved my life it was the Scorpio second sight. Ami

Jane, both my Mercury and Venus disposit each other and they also form a semi-sextile, so there is probably some kind of mutual reception, but haven't noticed that it would affect my "Mercury preferences" much. I do like Venus and Mars in Capricorn, Sun is also ok (they all trine my Venus), it's Mercury and Moon I've found to be incompatible (and they both square my Mercury and Moon). IP: Logged |

I'll answer better when I get a new computer keyboard tomorrow. Got a new computer that only accepts USB keyboards, and the keyboard that came with it is defective. Using on screen keyboard at the moment. I'd probably be faster on my phone.Love Craig Ferguson. He's just so intensely charming and likeable. He's excited about hosting Shark Week currently.

I don't know which percentages exactly. Now I'm starting to second guess whether I would be close. I'm pretty sure I was last time, but I always come down on the side of introversion. quote: Someone who only knew my extro side met my intro side. Another friend came along and said to him, "Oh, that's just how Jane is. You have to catch her in the right mood. The right one and you'll feel like you're in heaven. The wrong one and you'll feel like you're an obnoxious troll."
I like that. I can be like that, too. There are times when a person I'm living with's sparkly happy demeanor will annoy me, because I'm not in the mood to play along, and it won't be a matter of being angry per se. Just don't want to go there. quote: Do you think your d. Pluto on your Mercury gives your Mercury a Scorpio feel?
After reading an interp, yes. I think there may be a limit, though. I don't delve into everything (almost wrote everyONE; interesting slip) with the full force of my curiosity, especially where the metaphysical is concerned. IP: Logged |

missa -Wow, I would've expected more compatibility with that mutual reception going on. Is this a strong trend for you with Cap Mercuries or has it only been difficult with a few of them? teasel Your post is making me think that with aspects the element needs to be paid attention to. You mentioned that your convos can get heated. That must be the fire influence. Even though they're trine, the energy soars. Harmony can be hot. IP: Logged |

Exactly! At times I don't want to interact bc I know I won't be fully present on that social level. About your d.Pluto... For you, I'd guess that you're cognizant (Mercury) of Pluto issues. It's through your conscious thoughts that you know where your Pluto's been and where it's going. And I'll mercifully stop with the draconic talk now since you forewarned me that your full curiosity won't be going here. I love that you're a Craig fan too. Now that I know you'd probably like my SO, I can daydream about what it would be like to have you over for dinner. That fantasy may sound tame, but **Spoiler Alert** once the cannoli come out for dessert the evening takes a skinemax turn.  IP: Logged |

Oh no! It wasn't a warning. I'm just saying that there's a lot more in the world of metaphysical things that I haven't gotten into. For instance, I'm not at all excited about Lexigramming. To me, the amount of cleverness required to plan something like that out precludes it from being viable. The originators of language would have to be super geniuses to work out a language that works very specifically on two levels. A lexigram is an attempt to make literal an additional meaning from an already literal language. The fact that I brought up my own draconic chart would mean that it is something of interest. My draconic placements are kind of fascinating. Edgar Cayce was a Pisces with Leo Rising. IP: Logged |

AG -Sorry, that was mostly Sco humor. It's not the best.  I did wonder how far into draconics you were interested in going, but that was actually all I had to say about the subject then. I'm sure the mood to ramble further will strike me eventually. I'll get you yet! My SN persona chart is similar to your Draconic. In it, I have a Leo Asc and Pisces Sun. (Taurus Moon.) I'll have to look into Cayce's chat. A few months ago I saw a program about him. Knew little about him beforehand. He seemed like a class act.  IP: Logged |

Jane - amazing me as usual! quote: Since it disposits your Mercury, your Venus may be able to function in a Mercury way.
Does that mean my Neptune could function in a Mercurial way? (since my Mercury is Pisces).. I know a man who has Virgo Mercury exactly trine my Neptune (& Mars) in Capricorn (opposite my Jupiter in Pisces by degree and opposite my Mercury by sign-only). So far hmmm -- the conversations we have are full of Mercurial trickery and Neptunian evasion.. on and on. It's a bit tiring. I'm not what you would call a "talker" around him.. I feel like drifting into secrecy out of distrust. He is a HUGE talker around me but he talks about things I find a bit "useless" and unnerving.. Also, his tone is a bit patronizing and "know-it-all". I feel like saying "you're just a little spec of dust in the scheme of things - you simply don't know it *all*" lol I hope we overcome this.. I'd like to work well with this person, if it's possible. Our Suns are "trine" but not closely.. 12' Aries and 19' Leo. I don't *feel* it - sadly. I find him robotic.. His life consists in two things: His work -- and -- All of those pesky annoying things (emotions, desires, needs, other people, family, friends) that keep him from achieving his full-working capacity.
