I've been wondering this for a while now, but how much does our Venus and Moon sign influence our personality, after the Sun sign?I have a Gemini Sun, Cancer Venus, and Taurus Moon. Lately, I've been reading a lot of descriptions concerning the Cancer woman(not the Venus descriptions, but of the Cancer female personality) and I find a lot of it definitely pertains to who I am now, maybe even moreso than Gemini does. It's the same with Taurus as well. Is this true for anyone else? IP: Logged |

Read up on progressed Sun. Your sun has probably progressed into Cancer by now, which can explain why you feel Cancerian. Also your Moon is venus ruled and Venus is in Cancer, can explain relating to the Cancer traits.IP: Logged |

The Cancer female personality can be similar to Taurus. What is your Asc? Maybe your chart ruler emphasizes Venus in Cancer, which would indicate an important part of your personality. Also look for planets in the 4th house. Your Gemini can be downplayed by that Taurus Moon. Many ppl w that moon become emotionally dependable and grounded ppl. They esp. appear to be so.. Sun in Gemini would just make you more sociable than the average Taurus or a person w/out Air. IP: Logged |

Thanks for that. I'm still pretty newbie on astrology, though I think I'm slowly understanding everything :3. I'll check that out.IP: Logged |

I'm not sure how to post pics here @__@ but this is a pic of my chart if anyone wants to look (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v401/Kanna21/astro_2ast_02_just_me_lol8492149141.gif ).My Ascendant is in Capricorn, so is my Mars. I see already that my Moon lands in my 4th house lol. Everything's starting to make more sense about why I feel more grounded in general.

You should look at what sign your Saturn is in and it's house, since Saturn is your chart ruler. More than anything, this suggests that you have a Saturnian approach to life. Much more serious and responsible than the average Gemini. Of course your Taurus Moon will add to that in terms of stability. You're probably not comfortable with expressing your emotions, but you feel very deeply. Gemini paired with your Capricorn influence will give you the potential of using your intelligence toward your ambitions. IP: Logged |

Saturn is in the 11th house in Sagittarius.How might that affect my personality? Sorry if I'm asking too many questions @__@;;.

"I have a Gemini Sun, Cancer Venus, and Taurus Moon.

It's the same with Taurus as well." Wow hey, I know excatly what you mean. I think you should take a look at your Asc first; and especialy any signs that form a conjunction/square to it(by 5 degrees or less) as this tends to influence the projection of your ascendant. I see that you have a fixed Asc and Moon sign. This is extremely telling in the way that you come across and how you see yourself. You may relate better to having a fixed, consistant, reasonable personality than the Sun sign position may describe. Where is your Mars sign? I often find that Moon/Mars often influence the personality greatly too(in especially when both aspect the ascendant) As pertaining to you Sag being in the 11th house, this could mean that you have very many friends( usualy from a differing culture/race/family cultural background than your own). You find it easy to converse and realate with people who are from a different walk of life than your own. Saturn there however does influence the free-flowing energy of Sagittarus somewhat. So, you may come across a little more rigid and opinionatedabout your own ideals. You may find it hard to merge your own understanding with the vieqws of others. It is especially important; with the 11th house, to have friends and associates who share your deeply held ideals IP: Logged |

Capricorn Mars.Yeah, definitely love having friends from all walks of life. It makes my life more interesting learning about theirs. I can get pigheaded at times with my beliefs. I've been working on trying to be more open with my beliefs so my stances don't choke off other people's expressions.

Perhaps you stumbled across a "cold reading" of your sun sign. IP: Logged |

I personally don't do "progressions" and I don't really feel more like my Venus and Moon in general.However, I definitely feel the color and influence of my Venus and Moon positions in the context of their placements. That is, I feel them in those areas of life. I feel very Scorpio-ish (Venus, in the 12th, conjunct Pluto) when it comes to relationships (and whenever I say "relationships", I don't mean romantic or sexual ones; I mean friendships or other types of acquaintances and use the term "relationship" as a catch-all). My moon sign, Cancer, comes out with my emotions and how I deal with them. (I have it in the 8th). However, my sun sign, Libra, is ever-present. I'm a Libra through and through. One way to think of it is like food (my moon is Cancer; of course I'd pick food lol): your sun sign is your basic dish. The different placements/other planets are like seasonings or sauces. The basic dish is always there, but how you season it makes a big difference. If you take like a bar of chocolate, for example, you can add nuts to it, orange, chili, coffee, keep it as it is, etc. So, likewise, the other places in your chart will have their flavors, but the main dish is never gone entirely.

I wouldn't doubt it. A lot of astrology descriptions have painted Gemini femmes unfavorably over the years.I still love the descriptions written in Sun Signs and Love Signs about the Gemini female .

Lol, I love food too :3.I really like that analogy and it makes perfect sense to me(it's funny chocolate is used as an example because I have a Libra friend who was ranting on another forum that chocolate is better than men lol). Thanks for that ^__^.
