I've always loved being in front of the camera. I'm really reserved, but I have this burning desire for acting.

My Neptune's in my 5th House and so, that indicates acting abilities.

But, is there anymore?

Also, can anyone relate?

You can almost say you're prolly really good at manipulating if you can act. :P

natural talent will only take you so far with acting.
you need to work your butt off, and that will determine your success. you should read "An actor prepares" by Konstantin Stanislavski, "The technique of Acting" by Stella Adler, "Sanford Meisner on Acting.

Well, besides working your butt off, which we all know, what other aspects and placements give you this gift naturally?

I mean, I agree. This natural thing can only take you so far. Of course, you must work hard. Nothing is easy.

But, that Pisces Moon makes a lot of sense. Plus, who knows what aspects it has with other planets and which House it's in. But, a Pisces Moon alone would make sense. A lot.

Also, I've heard that Virgos can be very good at acting because they can analyze mannerisms and emotions. Can you or anyone extend???

Thanks!

I have this as well, conjunct Uranus. I think I have acting potential...performance potential overall, actually. I kinda like dance lmfao! I have plenty of emotional energy too which I can tap into and manipulate...can you cry on cue? I can if motivated.

Leo Sun, Moon, or Ascendant (dramatic, showmanship, charisma, ability to work a crowd)

Sun or Moon in Cancer, Scorpio, and/or Pisces (empathy, compassion, very emotional, puts self in others' shoes easily)

Aries Sun or Moon (spontaneous, authentic, follows impulses easily like a child - key acting elements)

Gemini Sun or Moon (role plays very well, can become a different person easily, expressive)

Aspects between Sun and Neptune (changeable sense of self) or Moon and Neptune (extreme imagination)

Aspects between Moon and Pluto (strong and intense emotions, psychoanalytical, understands human behavior instinctively)

Holy! That sounds kind of amazing. Do you have that? Does anyone have this? Any actors have this?

Oh! What about Moon in the 1st House?

Don't forget about Mercury for effective communication. Mercury conjunct MC, maybe?

Neptune in the First House:
You might express yourself artistically, and come across as gentle, sensitive, and dreamy, especially if Neptune is close to the Ascendant (within 10 degrees). You are extremely sensitive to your environment. Others tend to see whatever they want to see in you, and you thus can come across very differently to different people. You might tend to encourage this, even without knowing. Your appearance and mannerisms tend to be chameleon-like. You are a peace-loving person. While you don't come on strong, you can be subtly alluring and intriguing. Others can be drawn to you and feel that you understand them. You can be moody and your first reaction to problems might be to escape or to feel sorry for yourself, or helpless. You may not feel a strong sense of identity and struggle with your own impressionability. Like a sponge, you absorb the moods of others. Your imagination is powerful. You have an easygoing manner - a "what will be, will be" approach to the world.

Neptune in the Third House:
Dry, cold facts are hard for you to absorb, so traditional academics might not appeal. However, you are talented at visualization and whole-style learning. You are perceptive and dreamy, although you often have your head in the clouds and might miss important details. Sticking to schedules can be difficult, and so can tending to errands, communications, and other necessary daily activities. You might "tune out" when you hear specific directions, and consequently miss helpful details. You might as a result frequently be late for appointments or miss them altogether. In your communications, you can quickly put others at ease, as you seem to intuitively understand them. You express yourself creatively, imaginatively, and with great charm. However, you might also encourage, without even knowing it, misunderstandings, as you rarely are definite in what you say. Learning, especially when young, can be challenged only because you might lack discipline or the style of learning is not creative enough to hold your interest.

Neptune in the Fifth House:
You are an imaginative and creative person with a strong sense of drama. You are inspired by art and feel compelled to express yourself in a fantastic or dramatic manner. You could be an excellent actor. You might also be an especially creative teacher or caregiver, perhaps drawn to helping children with special needs. You have an exceptionally strong need to be appreciated, particularly on romantic and creative levels. Your love life involves a lot of fantasy, and often your deep need for drama can lead you to see things that you want to see. Your romantic perceptions may not be accurate as a result. You might attract unusual, chaotic, or secretive circumstances in your love life if you are not spiritually content. You might be attracted to lovers who you feel need to be saved somehow, but you could end up with people who are confused, distant, noncommittal, or dependent. Keeping a high level of drama in your love life is important to you, but it can also be exhausting over time. Finding a balance will be vital -- keep your ideals, but try to avoid expecting far too much from ordinary people.

Neptune in the Eighth House???

Neptune in the Tenth House:
You have exceptionally strong intuition when it comes to current trends, business, and what the public wants, and you are likely to bring much creativity, vision, and artistic sense to your career. This position is good for a career in the arts, with the media, in the helping professions, and involving charity work. If challenged, Neptune here can point to drifting without a clear direction or a lack of clearly defined goals. You may find it hard to find a "calling" in life, perhaps because of fears that a particular profession will be less than ideal, or due to fear of your being less than perfect. You might want to examine whether your expectations are inflated or unrealistic. Some of you might fear taking responsibility for your lives or for others' lives. You may have received confusing or chaotic messages in your childhood or from a particular parent, and subsequently find it hard to take a definite direction or path in life, or fear taking responsibility. In your career, you may not always get due recognition, which can also stem from a problem with assigning yourself worth. Others might take credit for your work, or you could have problems being recognized and rewarded by your superiors until you truly believe in yourself and your abilities and talents. You may not project yourself clearly and you should be cautious about your reputation. While you often prefer anonymity, try not to encourage others' misperceptions about you.

Neptune in the Eleventh House???

Neptune in the Twelfth House???

I also have Leo Mars and AC, and Leo/H5 energy is generally associated with entertainment, drama, and performance. So two of each for me!

Oh! I have that Uranus conjunction too! Woot woot.

But, my ASC is in Virgo and my Mars is in Sagittarius. ^^

Yes, Leo is such an amazing sign. It has such great meaning and whatnot. Lifeeeee.

Yes! I can! Heh. Sorry, I was rather proud to discover that. It's not Method so much as just really getting into the character.

I also suggest looking at the relocated chart. Most of this was rather latent and became very evident when I moved to LA. Prior to that, it was just a natural gift with little application. Here, Neptune is exactly on my 5H cusp, and disposits to my Jupiter in Virgo. It makes some nice aspects, too: Sun sextile, Moon semisextile, Venus quintile, etc.

The asteroid Actor is also on my Scorpio stellium, right on Mercury, which rules my MC.

I only really begun landing great roles recently. I guess Saturn hitting it has actually been realising, rather than restricting. Granted, it's sextile my ASC-Venus now, too. That's helping.

I think the reason for Neptune predominance is the gift and knack for visualisation. For me, that's been everything. My ability to REALLY 'see' whatever I'm supposed to be seeing, (I've done a fair bit of green-screen / ChromaKey work) as well as quite literally imagine dialogue in my mind. I'm told it translates quickly to my face, giving me a great method for TV and film - even though my training is mostly in theatre.
