I was actually wondering about my Sun-Mercury-conjunction in comparision to the Sun-Moon-conjunction at the same place, that a guy, a performer I sort of know, has.

From my observation (very mercurial!) he acts on instinct. He feels something and that transfers into spontaneous acting.
He never stops to think about what to do, he simply does and acts. Very straightforward, very quick, very spontaneious and instinctual.

I am completely different (though we BOTH have Sun on GC in SAg!), and it must be my Mercury conjunct Sun instead of Moon conjunct Sun.
I am acting on thought (most of the time). I am analysing my selfexpression, he kind of "feels" it I think.

When we first met, he was suddenly sniffing me because he thought he sensed a certain fragrance (well, it was just me, not wearing any perfume that night, which he refused to believe. lol) - that was him, instinctually acting, without thinking about what I might think of it, or if it was appropriate to do so (I never heard about sniffing someone within 10 minutes of meeting. lol).
And I was acting mercurial,a s I was "racking my brain" why he was doing it, what he did think, what kind of thought made him doing it.

Sun conjunct MC- feel it is my destiny to be successful on a large scale. I have to be remembered.

I guess whatever planet is on the MC will want to (need to) be projected on to the outside world.
Is that right?
So you want to leave your mark(Ego) on the outside world.

What would moon conjunct MC want to do?
Belgz--you have that .

I am glad you are interested in my train of thought lol

Whatever conjuncts the Sun melds with it in a way that they are Siamese twins---in a way that it just IS .

I was trying to get the sense of it.

I think the sign and house must be a be factor to flavor it, too.

My mother has it in Aqua in the 12th house.
Her ego and thinking are too close.
She is a hair trigger without much detachment.

Ami
PS Your friend with the Sun/moon conjunction would be very sensitive as a person I think.
I could see a teddy bear type of person--warm, welcoming, kind.

Is he?
What sign are they in?
I do not know what GC is?
Is he a Sag like you?

I don't see how Jupiter conjunct Ascendant can be a spiritual maverick.

Jupiter is one of the social planets. The planet of physical boundaries,Saturn orbits beyond Jupiter.

Jupiter is known as the traditional benefic too.

In Vedic Astrology, Jupiter would not be viewed as something maverick. They even viewed Saturn as more the outcast because Saturn is the most outerplanet in their system. They viewed Saturn as the malefic.
On the other hand people strong in Jupiter would be viewed as more acceptable.

Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius which is the sign associated with religion. Jupiter is said to be the planet of religion.

My mother has Jupiter conjunct Ascendant.
I can tell you straight up that she's no spiritual maverick by any means. My mom is Roman Catholic. My mom is part Portuguese on her father's side of the family. Our family has been Roman Catholics throughout history.

I'd be considered a spiritual maverick. I've never been baptized. I am not a Roman Catholic nor am I Christian. I never felt comfortable with organized religion. My beliefs fit with New Age,Unitarian Universalism,and New Thought. I'd say that they also fit with Neopaganism. I am a member of an interfaith unity church.
These things are connected to my overall liberalism - both political and social.
For instance, unlike majority of Christians here in USA, I believe homosexual marriages should be legal throughout the whole USA. I believe that church and state need to be completely separate. I believe that there are too many self righteous hypocrites that run rampant in USA and infringe on the rights of others ,twisting religion to support their bigoted views. They did that with blacks and other ethnic minorities,and they are doing that with homosexuals. I support the mosque being built near the World Trade Center. Islam doesn't equate to terrorism. Just because a few people of a certain kind did something terrible doesn't give mean that the whole kind should be held accountable. USA made that mistake with Japanese Americans,putting them in internment camps after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor during World War 2.

I have a hard time figuring what planet is doing what since all the outer plants- Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto are aspecting my Sun and Moon.

Saturn Trine Moon, square Sun
Uranus Opp Moon, semi-sextile Sun
Neptune inconj Moon, Conj Sun
Pluto Inconj Moon, sextile Sun
Sun inconj Moon (grr)

I do like moving a lot (but that can be the Saggie in me or Uranus/Moon)...

my jupiter/ascendant conjunction is also conjunct neptune and square my moon. so its a bit more for me.
jupiter is nebulous, magnetic and gregarious...its bigger than life. neptune is similar. its ethreal, boundariless and mystical. i think this conjunction definitely makes me a spiritual maverick.

i was raised pentecostal. my great grandfathers, biological and adoptive, both started churches and were preachers between 1920 and 1945. my family in my city is a part of one of the largest churches in the city... a mega church. my aunt is assitant pastor. my uncle is the choir director and my grand father was deacon for 50 years before he died.

although i am not a a christian. my spirituality is more about taking aspects from different practices, christianity included, because i believe that all is one. so i just do what works for me. my family and community that i grew up with very much believe in jesus and that he is literally going to come back to earth and take them to heaven. i reject no religion. i accept them all.

i am definitely a spiritual maverick. the fact that i am very much into astrology, and other occult practices. also because i am a teacher, i am able to relay these concepts that i discover to people and they are always surprised and tend to be open and receiving.

maverick: someone who exhibits great independence in thought and action. irregular, independent in behavior or thought.

ah...I see

Neptune conjunct Jupiter/Ascendant makes a big difference

My mom's Saturn in Scorpio in 5th trines her Jupiter/Ascendant conjunction in Cancer.

My retrograde Saturn in Gemini is in 9th, but it is in opposition to Jupiter-Neptune in Sagittarius in 3rd

I think my Neptune aspecting my Saturn in 9th modifies any conservative,rigid religious tendencies......dissolving them

I am wondering what Pluto conjunct ASC is sometimes perceived as "good" by the person i.e easy and sometimes "hard"

You have it Meta and you experience it as hard.
What do you think?

Anyway, he comes across as warm and kind, and teddy bear like and enthusiastic and spontaneous and sometimes almost annoyingly funny and silly. Well I like it, but others have commented on this.

Yes, he has Sun-Moon-conjunction on MC in Sagittarius (he seems to show a lot of himself in public situations, somehow he comes across as "genuine"), funnily his Sun, Moon and MC are also conjunct my Sun and Mercury, which I find fascinating. I must admit.

Deliverance,

I love your description of Venus opposite Saturn. Sits very well me me.

Do you find your also attracted to those who appear the same way? Self-sufficient and stand-off-ish? The quiet ones always do me in!

---

Meta,

Venus opposite Saturn is a cool aspect!

I do think self-sufficiency is a very attractive & admirable attribute, I also have a quiet respect for people who maintain boundaries (they can appear stand offish.)

I have a thing for men who are either really preachy (not-repetitive) or crisply concise - wouldn't date them tho. The quietly confident men are cute as well

So, I see it as being seen as either an easy aspect or hard for the person.
That was what I meant.

I would think a Sun/moon conjunction would make a warm person.

For me--the warmest interchange between two people is moon to moon which is really heart to heart.

I don't know any Sag moons but I do love the Leo moons I know so a Sag moon is probably a warm moon ,too.
