I'm not sure what to make of my birth mother. She wants us to have a relationship now, she even offered to help pay for my education and honestly I took her up on that offer. I recently found out her birth time from my grandmother and found her chart to be pretty interesting

My parents divorced when I was an infant lol. He remarried a lovely woman who actually adopted me and raised me as her own child.

My birth mother is really into her career. She's very glamourous and has a comfy life. d Honestly I have no idea why she even wants a relationship now. I guess now that she's older,and I'm an adult...

Is their anything in her chart thats a red flag. I can see a trine going on with venus,saturn and uranus. Can anyone elaborate? Is that like a grand trine. Uh ironically she has a similar birth chart to my dad... Pluto, mars and sun conjuncts each other. They should of got along pretty well, same principles.

You need to do what is best for you.
What do you feel comfortable with?

Gemini is pretty accepting with human flaws
they take life in stride.
If your birth mother wants to help you with Education then that's great and it will make her feel better about the choices she's made in this life, and you will benefit.

Tell your step mother, it has nothing to do with love and she's still number one

I notice that your mother has a lot of planets in Libra, including the sun. Her chart ruler, the sun, is also in Libra, which of course makes her ascendant Leo. Venus being in the first house would add to this; my guess is that she is a very beautiful woman and that she probably has pleasing mannerisms and demeanor--very charming, attracts people easily. She has Venus in Leo, too, which would also indicate very 'high' tastes/elegance. On top of that, she has a Taurus moon to boot. I can see how she would be the 'glamorous' type. I consider myself a glamor girl and a career girl (both) and I only have two planets in Libra; in her, this would be even stronger and more powerful. Beauty and elegance are core parts of who she is and I would venture to say that they are what she seeks and desires in life, very strongly, even more strongly than the average Libra.

I notice that she has Mars in Libra, which would be drive/motivation. She would be motivated by beauty and would respond strongly to it; she would be drawn to people who are pleasant, beautiful, well-mannered, polite. She could possibly be motivated by peace and the promise of comfort or harmony, which might be why she is contacting you. However, without knowing her personally, of course, I can't say that with 100% certainty--just that it's possible.

Personally, I would tread carefully and give her time to earn your trust. It is entirely possible that she feels bad for the past and is trying to heal old wounds in her own way, but it's also possible that her motives might not be the best. I think that it would be good to go into this very slowly and cautiously and see if she is truly trustworthy.


My adoptive mother had a similar childhood to mine, She's usually very protective of me, but now is in an awkward position. Our relationship is strong though.

Yeah my birth mother use to be a show girl when she was younger. Now she works with dancers in vegas.
I just have a feeling that I'm going to be used for something. Its probably not entirely bad or anything. She just seems that kind of person who does things for her own gain. I've always had a knack for understanding peoples motives. I'm probably just being paranoid.

You're right. She probably does feel bad. Its probably weird for me since its like a distant relative giving you small fortunes out of nowhere. Yeah I've never been so big on family. Ironically I'm closer to my step mothers family.

Without really knowing her, it's hard to say, but until you know for sure, you can always just kind of let it unfold and see what happens without giving up too much of yourself or letting her get into a position of trust right away.

So, I'm not saying to definitely not trust her, but just to make sure that she earns your trust and is worthy of it.


Yeah I've been careful she's been inviting up to see her, and I've just been making excuses. She recently got remarried and I did not even attend the wedding. Its really awkward but I know I have to see her now that she's offering to help me out. I mean she can't really hurt me, since I have like no feelings towards her. :P

Its just weird, its like that woman gave birth to me, I'm essentially part of her. My grandmother told me I look just like her. Also I was skyping with my birth mother and could relate to her which just scared me. Even her mannerisms. We both love fashion, and I've probably gotten my artistic abilities probably from her too. We both have taurus moons :P
