I have some of the aspect they considered to be a "artist".
Moon in Libra 3rd House
Moon Square Uranus
Moon Square Neptune
Mars Square Jupiter
In my Progress chart i have:
Moon Trine Jupiter
Sun trine Jupiter

I dont considered myself and artist but i do love art and literature deeply. I love graphic designing i use to do it a lot when i was in Middle School and have such love for video games. One of my favorite past time is looking at photography and movies. I always wish i was a painter because i always have this mental images that comes to me rapidly and wish i was be able to draw what i see.

How about you guys?

Basically the ruler of Venus is Taurus & Libra, but from experience, libra is more written arts, where as taurus is the earthy touchable art. venus is exalted in pisces, many can express what they can't in words through pictures, photography, paintings.

sometimes leo or 5th hosue placements add a bit of flair into the art too.

cancer adds emotionality, often of a longing looking into the past nature.

Yeah i have venus in pisces in my 7th house and its ruler in my 5th house with Mercury and Uranus there which can explain why i have different hobbies. Having venus is pisces and it's ruler in my 5th house can explain my love for art and fantasy especially dreams i always had a fascination for dreams. Usually the art I'm into usually have a universal love theme especially with a individual which probably have to do with my Venus in the 7th house.

My venus is in the 5th. I appreciate art but have been neglective of it mostly. Therefore I am no artist. Albeit I do turn my dreams into reality. That is proven!

"Sun trine Jupiter. Yet another Jupiter contact. This can signify the ego expansion the artist realizes when their work (and the artist) gains acclaim. Jupiter give the opportunity to expand the self, and this can be expressed through art.

Sun trine Ascendant. This can be artist leaving his or herself on the canvas (or in the marble). What you see is what you get – the inner self and the work are one. The Ascendant is also the first point of interaction with the outside world – the mask the artist wears.

Venus square Neptune. Venus, the planet traditionally associated with art, squares Neptune – the planet of dreams. Squares show action, activity, and a driving force. Perhaps the Venus square Neptune shows the driving force to display artistically the dream world."

I've been drawing my whole life. My drawings are very unique and look vaguely like Edward Gorey's artwork, and he happens to have Pisces Moon like me!

Moon in Aries,the stressed Moon by outers; H3/12 Moon; Moon in contact with Jupiter

• The sign of the moon is not an imperative,yet alone an Aries one - while art requires emotional independence and action,the sign of the Moon is often only a part of an artistic signature,rather than project or the body of the piece; Moon is one of the top 3 indicators,yet not a conscious force. Moon is the need,and while an artist can not be anything else other themselves,it is their path that makes them so,rather just a sentiment. Having a Cardinal Moon helps,but the advantage of this position is small,and having in mind that Cardinal Moon is a structuralist,and good at specific moments in history (the birth of new directions in art,innovation),one can see why a Fixed Moon can,in course of present art currents,do more! They may be misunderstood,but nevertheless,leave a mark in present time,no matter how in the century or two they will be respected. Innovation can prove to be futile(cardinal),and no one may remember the person who rocked the scenes for the decades(fixed). So,it is really a weak point to single out a sign of the Moon - Moon rules senses,and is always in tune with environment - so one has to find a source of artistry in connection with outer planets,they practically catapult the Moon's potential.Outer planets gives both individuality and intunement with the generation. Giving slight preference to conjuctions,but all hard aspect,as a rule. Would mention as well Moon in aspect to Saturn,opposition especially,but from different reasons. They are those type of artists that Freud calls the imbalanced,trying to heal themselves by doing art,succeeding,but only the the eyes of observers - to them it is life long journey and impetus,Saturn thriving in situations that resemble its exaltation,strong,going,cardinal energy + soothing touch of Libra.
• H3 Moon is fortunate,used position for an artistic Moon,H12 Moon : collective unconscious + personal impact = an artist that is in the tune with wishes,mentality and state of spirit of the masses,often a beacon of the right notions concerning the given generation ; they are heroes,they are respected.
• Jupiter is,oddly enough,underrepresented in the charts of artists. Art is always a rebellion,the streak of cynicism,so no room for Jupiter there.They are THE influence.

The Sun : in Pisces,trining Jupiter,Asc

• Again,bad business in singling out the sign. BUT,do artists group? Oh,yeah. Virgos novelists,Cancers painters,Leo conceptual artists. Certainly,they have to find the position that it's the best for them to outpour the emotions - Sun knows how to shine,when,why. Would I give more importance to Pisces Sun? No,I think there is a strong difference between Sun/Nep and Pisces Sun. While every Sun/Nep is an artist of sorts,not every Pisces Sun can say the same.
• Sun in aspect to Asc - artists are charismatic enough,but this pertains to their personality only,not really the work they do.
• Sun/Jup similar to Moon/Jup,maybe just with underlined bohemian traits,which again does not make an artist,but they do make them cool.

Venus square Neptune,Asc

• Venus square Nep in an artistic chart is very challenging. They don't click well the contemporary,they can be blurred/mistaken about the new movements. One would need an easy aspect as a jail free getaway card in connection with this aspect.
• Venus/Asc square : "The art becomes the person; the person become the art" Theoretically,I can see this being a good trigger,but I still don't find substantal number of examples. But,what mattes more,being or seeing? Do we need an artist? Or is it their view on the world we need? In regards to Venus in conj with IC/MC,there is a difference in being artistic and being an artist.

Mars in Taurus,Leo; Mars square Jupiter; Mars semisquare Uranus

• Actually,it is the Cardinal Mars that runs stronger here,Taurus is heavy when paired with Venus,Moon. Leo,hell yeah,but they ring the appealing-to-masses-cuz-Imma-fly-like-that bell often,except for the art of film : Neptune in Leo and the birth of the film and its expansion; The planet of art made a sand pool for Leos to play.
• Mars square Jupiter,I haven't noticed this...
• Mars semisquare Uranus,yeah,these two in contact,the brilliant,odd child,enfant terrible,but in a major aspect.

Jupiter in H9/11; Jupiter sextile Saturn;

• House 9 isn't prevalent,however,it is strong with people who make a philosophy out of art - what an artist needs to do in order to be a symbolist,for example,but those people aren't really artists. More like critics with a vision.(an artist of sorts,but that's not what we are talking about here); House11 is visible only when you observe the themes artists concern them with.
• Jupiter in aspect to Saturn,yes,an extremist energy,however not so prominent.

Saturn in H11;Saturn quincux Uranus

• Saturn,prominent,yeah,but not as part of H11.
• Why quincunx,I wonder??? I haven't researched this,and right now I am too lazy,I have packed H9 by transits,all I want to do is to get away and have adventures

Pluto in H9; Trining Asc;

• Again,what's with the H9?? Pluto can create shitstorms one can be forced to vent,raw inspiration,but,you need more!!!! Pluto has to be major player in the chart.

Asc in Cancer; MC in Aries,Cancer;

• The best planet for Cancer is Mercury,art-wise.
• Sure,Aries(pioneering),Cancer(intuition,knack for waves,currents,trends) Libra(beauty) Capricorn (the machine) on MC is great,but not exclusively and necessary in the arts. I have always thought that if one wants a star component in their art endeavours,Fixed MC is a better start.

Btw,I find it shocking how the author underplayed Mercury!!

H9 Moon contacting most of my planets. Generational ones too. I agree, H9 planets are important for artists.

I have Jupiter in the 11th conjunct Venus, trine Saturn... Neptune contacting most of my personal planets. Sun sextile ASC. Mars isn't semisquare Uranus, but I have it in opposition.

Years ago an astrologer pointed out that I could be one because of where my Uranus is placed and aspects it makes.

hi T!good to know you are into arts too!as far as i am concerned i see myself as a full artist,music,poetry and painting are my main focuses...

i think it is important to look for venus and its placement will tell to what degree you are an artist.my venus is right next to my north node in leo,in my 11 th house.so its very obvious that venus is my lifemission and it will always lead me to be active with arts.my first house is in libra too! and my mercury-pluto in libra is exactly sextile my neptune and my neptune is trine my venus

...my uranus is in scorpio,my 2nd house...and once i heared that if uranus comes to be in your second house,then one earns money in unexpected ways
