So there is always a dilemma when comparing how signs against planets in regards to your personality. I just want to know which one holds more weight to you. Let me use myself as an example:

I'm a triple Mercury sun/virgo moon/gemini ascendant/virgo..Mercury is also in virgo more me. My chart is basically a splash with mostly earth/air signs . Looking from the zodiac perspective my personality would be wayyyy off if not for planetary aspects.

Planetary aspects: for some reason i imagine Neptune and Uranus hand in hand gripping a unbreakable chain on Mercury, with Pluto riding mercurys back lol. I have Neptune & Uranus trine Sun/Asc/Mer and conj each other. Those two outer planets are like two big boulders on mercury lol. Then pluto has the nerve to be sextile my sun/asc/mer/neptune/uranus.

The aspects of those four planets describe me wayyyyy better than just a basic zodiac placement. Im creative, spiritual, intuitive, have a love for new age, space, scifi, astrology, goth, punk ANYTHING creative and unorthodox. Horror fantasy etc etc. now where could u find that explanation with my good ol sign placements? You'd think i was a combo of aquarius virgo Pisces and scorpio...dont get me wrong mercury is still there as far as my high intelligence. But Pluto has me deeper thinking.
&& i dont give a crap about perfection, socializing and communication (im an introvert) or serving people lol ive been a very rebellious uranus person forever.

Not to mention when I was 8 years old and first read i was an earth sign, i felt they were completely wrong and out of sync. Im a ocean lover since i could remember. Nothing is more spiritual and close to my heart than the element water. Thanks Neptune!!

Please share your experiences :-)

Indigo,

I have ZERO planets in Aquarius in my chart. However, my Sun is trine Uranus. So that does explain why I'm such an Independent Thinker. I come to my own conclusions about things & I refuse to be brainwashed. And I am VERY protective of my right to be that way!

Here's a great description from Cafe Astrology:

96 Trine Sun - Uranus

"It is natural for you to question tradition. You are, above all things, an individualist. You naturally rebel against that which is established. It doesn't mean that you consistently break all the rules, but you definitely do question some of the rules, especially those that simply don't make much sense. You possess a huge distaste for routine. You work best when you have some say as to when and how you get things done. You possess much self-integrity. You avoid labeling people and are most offended when others attempt to label or stereotype you.

You easily embrace new ways of doing things, you stick up for the underdog, and you express yourself in unique and inspiring ways. You don't have to try to stand out as unique--you are original, creative, and progressive without trying. You are far from pretentious. You value honesty and truth, and you avoid putting on airs. You believe in the equality of people, and easily relate to people from all walks of life. You possess an unmistakable enthusiasm about life, and generally your life is interesting because you invite unusual or adventurous experiences into your life. You are generally appreciated by others because you are open-minded, fair, and not judgmental. Nothing really seems to faze you! You take things in stride, and are rarely shocked or taken aback by human behavior."

I'm an Aries & I'm definitely not afraid to do or say things FIRST -- to hell with waiting on *someone else* to get the balls to do it!. So in that way, I'm true to what Aries is all about.

However, I feel my Moon in Cancer very strongly at times. I'm sensitive & very in tune w/ people, family, and my surroundings. Also, my Pluto aspects are felt as well (see my thread about Pluto Aspects!) So the Scorpio in me ADDS to the Cancer intensity, while helping me to have better CONTROL over those emotions. Scorpio is excellent at self-control even while seething underneath the surface. Which is exactly why I find aspects related to this sign to be so SEXY!

Lastly. I heavily identify with my Venus in Taurus; I'm solid, sensible, sensual, stubborn & sexy in the Love Department. Totally Taurus in that area!!! My Venus is also trine my Mars and the descriptions of that aspect completely fit me.

I think planets are more stronger, especially if you have one in your first house or majorly aspecting your sun, moon & etc. In my case I have a stellium of sun, ven, merc & mars in Sagittarius. So according to my chart, I'm supposed to be loud, outgoing, life of a party.
Wrong in SO MANY levels. I have Saturn in the 1st house & I feel MUCH MORE saturnian than sag. I am shy, reserved, cautious, pessimistic & etc. which is the oppoaite of optimistic party lover sagittarius.

I have saturn/moon/uranus conjunction in sagittarius in 4th house. With sun in taurus and mercury and mars both in gemini in 10th house. I feel like the saturn/moon conjunction in 4th house is controling my life and i feel more saturnian/capricorn energy in my life that sagittarius or gemini. I don't understand how can I even have mercury/ mars gemini when I am the least chatty person in the world. But then again they are in the 10th house (saturn) , so some of that saturnian energy must have affected them. I think it's all because I still did't reach my saturn return ( in december 2016). I think after that other parts of my chart will become more visible. I hate saturn.
