Hehe yes, you're right! Means "sweet dream".

Aww I can see better now.
Sounds like a tough one, but you're aware of it and yay for Jupiter! for helping you out.
It's so interesting that you should say that because you have an Aqua Moon and usually Aqua Moons aren't described that way at all.. but from my experience, you guys are big softies inside. I've known quite a lot of Aqua Mooners and when you first meet them ("you" lol) you'd never think that you're the sensitive or caring type, but most of you are. But the shell is always there, aye. I think in that sense there's often a natural inclination to Saturn (traditional ruler of Aqua) because you often appear reserved and "cold" but at the same time, there's a "neediness" and seriousness to your emotional side, which you keep protected/hidden.

I think your Jupiter in Pisces makes you vulnerable also because Piscean qualities are what your Jupiter aims for, unconditional love and forgiveness, obviously you wouldn't want to be taken for granted with that one..

Quintiles REALLY interest me, and in the grand scheme of things I actually don't think they're all that "minor," even though we (myself included) generally tend to not focus on them much. I think by "gift" you mean that quintiles point to talents/potential not necessarily indicated by major aspects in a chart, correct? I really like the idea of quintiles as being connected to the number five in Tarot, or the "unleashing of the expression of self" and "dispensing knowledge." Pulling from all of this, I always come back to this definition of quintiles: unique "gifts" and ways of linking information, ideas, and concepts that are entirely your own.

I only have one....well, no. I have two quintiles, but one involves my NN and I don't really care about my NN haha. The quintile I do care about is between Jupiter and Neptune.

Jupiter is in 1H, and Neptune is in 10H. The themes here are expansion, philosophy, consciousness, mysticism, transcendence, my self, and my destiny/public image. On a scale which I can understand, the quintile manifests in that I have TOTAL and complete faith in fate (power of an unseen force/capacity for unknown guidance). I'm also blindly optimistic, so I guess a "talent" or "gift" would be my ability for positive (Jupiter) imaginings (Neptune). I think the quintile also really speaks to my interest in astrology--as a system of thought and way to organize and thus understand the self/spirituality.

Venus quintile Uranus would indicate an innovative and unexpected artistic streak. It can also make you someone that the opposite sex is drawn to because you exude a sort of "different" or "oddly attractive" sensuality than most people. It can have anything to do with quirky/revolutionary Venus things, though: maybe you're interested in fusion cuisine or perhaps you have a vision and desire for making the world a better place by way of sense perception (such as creating something like "green" architecture that is also visually appealing, or designing beautiful clothes and giving a percentage of profits to a charity).

Venus Q Neptune is indicative of someone with a glamorous or mysterious image, and as far as talents/gifts it would probably make you both compassionate and intuitive, so maybe something in psychology or counseling might suit you?

EDIT: looking at the houses the planets are in can give more insight to where exactly in your life the quintile plays out.

Very cool Yeah, the thing to remember about the quintile (well, everything in astrology, but particularly the quintile) is that it's just an indicator of "potential." A lot of the time these talents or gifts they demonstrate are going to be something we don't readily see in ourselves, or something we take for second nature.

When someone has multiple quintiles, you'll find that you often "vibe" better with one over the others...just like it seems you do. Having Venus in 11H and Neptune in 9H adds these themes to the quintile:

love, beauty, art, sense perception, fantasy, enlightenment, compassion, intuition, friendship, collectivity, organizations, expansion, understanding, discovery, ethics

Since you vibe with the Venus-Neptune quintile more, I'll expand on that one: Are you the person in your friend group that everyone comes to when they need to vent or when they need advice? I have a feeling that you're probably seen as sort of the "sensitive romantic" in your group as well--I would imagine maybe advice seekers often come with questions about love and relationships. I would be weary of a tendency to want to "save" people though--although the quintile indicates "gifts" or "talents," I bet your ability to bond with and understand other people's specific psyches and problems makes 1) people flock to you who need help or advice, 2) for a person who thrives on establishing and mapping out people's emotional histories, but that 3) you feel somehow obligated or like it's your duty to smooth our their emotional wrinkles (this is why it would be good as a profession, because you need to maintain some distance when it comes to these matters). Neptune adds a youthful "naivety" to aspects, so you might be prone to becoming wrapped up too much in everyone else's drama and losing sight of your own needs and path.

What you said about anger rings true for me too! And also what watermonkey said. I can convey everything I need to with a look and few words. My Scorpio ASC, Sun, Mercury, and Venus friend knew not to make me mad upon meeting me and we weren't even that close. I don't know what it is but it must be a vibe we unconsciously give off (or maybe me moreso than you since my Mars is in the 12th.) That's fine though, at least I've never been consistently bullied by anybody like some unfortunate others.

I don't know about Mars in Gemini much, I know that my virgoan Mars makes me a very goal oriented practical person. Am also attracted to practical guys who know where they are going in life. Even if am very attracted to someone I would want to set milestones to the relationship LOL

I'm by nature NOT a nagging person, I can handle various tasks at the same time and I'll handle them fabulously well because I'll probably have a mentally well written detailed methodical way that I'll use to do them. When I have to do my shopping in a supermarket,I'll mentally ear marked each section,I'll start my shopping methodically from my must-buy list. I know this annoys a lot of people in my surrounding because I refuse to change the way I do things

I don't like when I'm taken for granted,I can turn into a very nasty person in a matter of seconds if I have cause to believe that I'm being taken for granted.Am a very very territorial person, I don't like changing routines,like I said I don't like changing the way I get things done because it's my productive way to get things done efficiently...I'm at my best when I have a task/chore to do! Even if it's an uninteresting thing as cooking, it's still a task that I enjoy and therefore will give my all,if I have to prepare dinner, I'll prioritize everything in my head...ya I know it can quite annoying to be around me...lol..I am extremely attracted to guys who share the same characteristics

I don't know how this is different to Mars in Gemini?

Yes, pluto in libra sextile venus....I feel the scorpionic energy..

Aww, shucks....first off thank you for all the compliments I'm not a pro, but I really do enjoy astrology...so thank you! Total ego boost! At the risk of hijacking this thread that is supposed to be about minor aspects, here's my two cents on your Juno:

I asked about your Juno because she's supposed to indicate the sort of marriage and marriage partner we need or will eventually have. When Juno makes hard aspects to Neptune, we'll often idealize partners and in the process lose touch with the parts of them that are actually quite "broken", making for a marriage one stays in or is attracted to because wanting to "save" that person gives them purpose. Which is totally unhealthy, right? Having brought up the idea that being good at conceptualizing people's emotional histories might put you at risk for becoming too involved with trying to "fix" them or the problem reminded me of Juno's masochistic streak when she touches Neptune, so I was curious what yours was doing...thank gosh it's not making hard aspects to Neptune!

The prevalence of divorce/multiple partners these days makes me wonder how strong an indicator of the "marriage partner" Juno can be, so I generally think of Juno according to how she might manifest the "making/breaking" of committed romantic partnerships (I've read this in a few places, and it makes more sense to me). Juno in Cancer, 3rd house, conjunct Mars and IC... This could be a little tricky, though nowhere near as unfortunate as Neptune contact could be given your Venus quintiles. Emotional comfort and communication and connectedness are all going to be important factors (which, to me, reads as uncanny just because of your Venus Q Neptune flavorings) and conjunct Mars is really going to give these themes some added vigor. You have three hard aspects to Juno: conjunct Mars, IC, and opposite (maybe loose?) MC. Hard aspects to Juno bring out the more disadvantageous side of the bodies involved, so as far as the Mars and IC conjunctions you might find yourself drawn to someone who YOU have to nurture or constantly reassure. Which you will obviously be exceptional at and probably enjoy doing with the quintiles you have (and also not shocking that people like this would be attracted to you), but just don't lose yourself in a romance that demands your being the backbone and emotional strength for that person...relationships are reciprocal, after all, and connectedness should make us feel more attuned to ourselves/partners, not weighted down! Juno conjunct the IC intensifies this need for commitment and for someone who "feels like home"--Cancer also bolstering the desire for someone who just "fits," particularly into your ideals for home life. You'll probably be very drawn to people who you can openly communicate with, especially about home/marital-related issues...even though Mercury in is your 12H, sometimes we need someone to force us out of inhibition, and a partner we trust is the perfect person to do so

IF your Juno is opposite the MC, this "hard" aspect is actually a beneficial one: rather than presenting an obstacle, this will give you a greater push for your career, and is another uncanny placement to me. You have drive and ambition to get to the top, and I'm assuming MC is in Sag? Juno here tinges your career with themes of marriage and beauty, and Sag MC would give it a philosophical bent. If your MC is in Cap this is even more pronounced, as you'll still have a deep drive to perfect these issues for others and to care for them/have a positive impact on the world. Of course, Juno is not the BIGGEST indicator in a career, but yours might certainly have undercurrents of Juno-related themes, and "marriage counselor" or any sort of counseling that involves women/children/the home wouldn't surprise me

"ehe yes, you're right! Means "sweet dream"."
Sweet dream - I like that!

"Sounds like a tough one, "
Yes, but it makes life interesting. Along with my Venus-Plut-square.

"but from my experience, you guys are big softies inside."
Ssht! You can`t let our secret out!
Everyone thinks we are cold and uncaring, and we will never tell anyone, that we still have the picture of our first love from the walk we took, when we first realized, we were in love. Or something like that.

"I think in that sense there's often a natural inclination to Saturn (traditional ruler of Aqua"
Yes, I def. can see Saturn ruling Aquarius; well I am living with him day and night.

"I think your Jupiter in Pisces makes you vulnerable"
Yes. In my chart Jupiter is very "personal", as it disposits all my Sag-planets, is the ruler of my ASC, and is in mutual reception and square with Neptune on the ASC.
Can`t escape that Neptunian Jupiter. Maybe it is good that Saturn is there as well, soI don´t simply float away. lol

"ou're doing a great a job already"
Thank you.
I actually feel quite good about myself at the moment, and apparently are more "approachable" than I have been in years.

I play piano and guitar. Piano music: I'm especially fond of baroque music, as well Schubert, Chopin, Debussy and Fauré for piano, as well as my own compositions. On guitar, mostly Celtic music, fingerstyle folk/Americana, like Leo Kottke, or fingerstyle jazz. I'm also extremely fond of Elliott Smith and French songwriter Raphael Haroche. I also sing, although mostly only Gaelic or French music these days, but in the past I've sung in choirs and early music ensembles. I have been known to sponateously break into a round of John Dowland's "Fortune my Foe" or "Come Again Sweet Love" from time to time (or one of the silly songs I made up to sing to my pets). When I'm alone I'm almost always either compsing msuic in my head or singing.

I forgot other minor aspects in my chart.

I hear you about thse quincunxes--most exhausting aspect there is!

I have two in my chart to my ASC forming a Yod pattern. The world makes me tired.

Aqua Mars in 6th quincunx Virgo ASC: Someone triggered this aspect today--a guy who had his dog off the leash and even though I told to not let his dog near mine, he kept on with that "My dog is friendly" thing that I hate. I don't know you or you dog--if I say I don't want your dog in my dog's space, RESPECT IT. I totally blew up at the guy, over his inability to follow a simple park leash rule (Virgo/6th house) and just being a general irrational idiot who couldn't respect other people (Aquarius). The guy probably thought I overreacted, but I'm OK with it--I was protecting my dog (Virgo). It's not like *I* was possibly wrong (Aquarius :laighing: )

But that's how that quincunx often manifests--me getting very angry, very quickly with people who do things that I see as a violation or some other intolerable error and who then excuse themselves with irrational thinking, emotional appeals or some presumed privilege. ARRGGGHHH. Humans! Sometimes I hates them so much!!!

My other quincunx is Chiron quincunx ASC. This one's so much fun! Basically, my everyday interactions with the world dig up old wounds. If you ever read an interpretation for this aspect that says it leads to low self-esteem, that's why. I am constantly having my wounds dug out, sometimes with some salt rubbed in them too. This can be a mental illness aspect, by the way, and I have PTSD/depression. Howard Hughes had this aspect--he became overwhelmed by his mental illness and withdrew from the world. I can see myself doing that somedays.

I looked at my chart again and so two more quintiles I forgot about:

Sun quintile Chiron
Jupiter quintile ASC

I think these are why I haven't completely go off the deep end, Howard Hughes-style.

Sun quintile Chiron

You are very gifted at understanding subtle energies, symbolism and other dimensions of reality. You would be an excellent astrologer, healer and/or spiritual guide. You are likely to have perceptions that do not fit with conventional philosophies, and these can lead you into expanded states and a greater awareness.
http://members.wizzards.net/~magyan/Sun_Aspects.htm

Definitely my greater awareness saved me during the worse of my PTSD. During the wrost symptoms I was able to retain some amount of lucidity that got me through it. I am terribly aware of subtle energies, and aware how they can make people and animals sick or heal them.

As for Jupiter quintile ASC, I think this must be why I can take bold risks and can be pretty fearless about being open and expansive. It's hard for me to just give up and shut the world out. There's this undying optimism in me that somehow things will get better.
