, my stellium is like yours except Venus is in the 1st. You are blessed not to have your chart ruler in the 12th house, it does make it harder to express itself. The Virgo Moon in 3rd is a great placement, I bet you are a awesome writer. I like what you said about making peace with your chart. We all need to strive to love our charts because they are so intricate and unique and no one ever born will have your specific chart.
Venus in 1st? I have to try not to envy that one. 
My Venus in 12th gets a little too Piscean dreamy at times. I have to constantly pull back on its reins.
Writer, huh? It's funny that you said that because my T- square consists of Sun-Venus conj. in 12th, square Moon-Pluto in 3rd, square Jupiter in 6th, which is opp. Sun-Venus. Every astrologer that's looked at my chart has said, "You were born to be a writer."
They've all said that the point opposite the T-squares apex is where the T- square can be rectified. For me, that's the 9th house, which rules publishing.
Problem is... I must have a lifetime supply of writer's block.
I'm great at coming up with overall ideas for novels, it's pulling together all the details into an exciting flowing sequence that gets me. I do think I'd make an excellent editor, though. I can spot great writing in others from a mile away.
On making peace with our charts, I think astrology is wonderful in that regard... For accepting ourselves. It's healing psychologically to understand why we are the way we are and why we're inclined to do the things we do. Then, at least, if we do want to make changes in ourselves and our lives, we know what we're working with or what we're up against. I actually feel bad for those trying to understand themselves and others without astrology. It makes me think of an architect trying to renovate or redesign a structure without having the blueprints. It may be possible, but having the blueprints makes it so much easier. Seeing my birth chart felt like finding the blueprints to myself.
