Has anyone used this? How accurate do you think this is? I was kinda shocked by the results and I have gotten different ones with other sites. And is anyone willing to post their results and say if they were surprised or not (if you have never tried this)? I'm nosy. Example: And I may have to go to asteroid area for this one, but what is vesta?

Never saw this color profile thing, but about vesta:Keyword: Self-sufficiency Vesta The asteroid Vesta was the last of the four major asteroids to be discovered, in 1807. The mythology of Vesta (or Greek Hestia) is as follows: one of the sisters of Jupiter and Juno, Vesta chose to remain a virgin and not marry. She was the goddess of the hearth fire, which was of utmost importance in ancient times, connoting hospitality and the basic vitality of the home or city-state, and her astrological symbol is the flame. It is interesting to note that Vesta is the brightest of the four asteroids. Her symbolism also suggests the “vestal virgin” temple priestesses of the ancient Geek world, and their commitment to no man, but to their own inner flame of service to the goddess. Their service might even be of a sexual nature, but they remained untouched by any sexual intimacy with another person. In accordance with its mythology, the asteroid Vesta is involved with both the signs Virgo and Scorpio. In the astrology of Vesta in an individual chart, these issues of sexuality and completeness unto oneself predominate. Possible associations are the woman (or man) who chooses not a mate, but as a nun or monk takes on a higher purpose than normal family life, also issues of sexuality and who is ultimately served in the process, self or other. Thus when Vesta is prominent in the chart, there may be issues with purity, singleness and sexuality either by abstinence or by one involving oneself with multiple partners which yet leave the individual untouched by relationship. The placement of Vesta by house and sign also indicate the area of life where these issues may manifest. IP: Logged |

Not really I figured mercury would be dominant.

This is very interesting. I haven't even read about mine just yet. Thanks for bringing this to our attention! EDIT: I read the sample. Wow... total accuracy! My Mars and Mercury are Conjunct also. IP: Logged |

Why is Mercury so low and Chiron so high!? Is this dominant planets? Are they using Chiron as Virgo's ruler? I don't get this, someone please help, lol. No wonder why I act so Virgo like, even though I only have a Virgo Sun, lol. IP: Logged |

I'm not exactly sure what they are using to get this. I can't say for sure. But for example, mine, has Mars at #1. My DC is Aries, my Sun Decan is Aries, Mars makes some strong aspects (conjunct Asc and Mercury, square moon) I don't know if they use even fixed stars at all, but I have some fixed stars conjunct points that are of Mars influence. So, like I was saying, I don't know what all they take into account, but it could be some of those things. Possibly Decans, etc. IP: Logged |

Well I have a Virgo Sun in Venus Taurus/Venus Decan, Chiron isn't even in Virgo either. It's in Libra. It is conjunct my Sun and Venus though. It's weird. Mercury should definitely be higher though. Chiron is also square my Gemini Moon, trine Uranus and sextile Pluto. It also has a very wide 10 degree opposition on Saturn and 8 degree trine with Neptune. What do you think? IP: Logged |

Yeah, this whole thing is weird. I was beginning to think it had to do with aspects, but maybe not. IP: Logged |

Moon in 3rd place? I have no Cancer placements! Lol. And only Pluto and Jupiter in the 4th house. Vesta (they use it for Taurus's ruler) should beat Moon because I have so many planets in 2nd and Taurus MC. I have Sun, Venus, Vulcan, Pallas, Vesta, Chiron and Ceres. IP: Logged |

Maybe it's primarily the Sun's aspects? Because I have Sun conjunct Chiron and Venus (3 way conjunction) and they're Chiron and Venus are the 2 main planets in there. But what about for the other planets? Moon and Ascendant aspects? IP: Logged |

This method does not give much importance to aspects and house position, inaccurate in my case.IP: Logged |

The sample reading part for me was pretty accurate (but there isn't much to read lol). I would love to know what they use. I'm so confused. Everything seems somewhat balanced, kinda like my chart but I'd never thought of or seen in other chart drawings uranus as dominate for me. I've looks at other's charts and they seem off the wall except for one but that person has so many planets in one sign it is a given. It seems I am not the only shocked one tho. xD I would think by Mercurian's name there'd be a higher mercury showing haha. And thank you for the vesta description.

You ain't kidding. I have a Virgo Sun, Gemini Moon, Mercury in the 3rd House and Mercury sextile the Ascendant. My Ascendant's depositor is in Virgo too. (Mercury ruled sign) So why in the heck is Mercury so low?!?! This is completely false, it has to be. Although, I feel that my Virgo influence is very strong, yet i only have a Virgo Sun, Pallas and Vesta, but in this it says Chiron is Virgo's ruler and Chiron is my dominate planet, so that one shows why I feel very Virgonic. Do they not take in Mercury as Virgo's ruler as well?

That is a lot of mercury influence to have such a low showing. Is your moon heavily aspected? Hmm... And I realized, I have no aqua in my chart and somehow uranus is top. IP: Logged |

Oh and thanks Also that test didn't even make a big thing if Mercury was in the 3rd House, but they made it a big thing if in Virgo or Gemini. That test has missed a few things for a Mercury strength test. So inaccurate test. The lowest possible score I got was 27. The highest if I count Mercury in 3rd as 10 points like they did for Virgo or Gemini, then it would be at 34.

I have Uranus and neptune in the 6th House. Not really I don't think. Moon's trine N.Node, square Chiron, Sun and Venus. Then wide orbs such as trine Mars at 8 orb, 10 degree trine for Mercury, lol,. Also an interesting one is quincunx Uranus at 2 orb.IP: Logged |

Maybe it's because I have an afflicted Mercury? Mercury square Mars, Jupiter and Saturn opposite Asc, Uranus and Neptune trine Pluto & MC conj. North Node

LOL! 61 points not factoring other things like nodes, asteroids, etc. I was sure not to count anything twice, such as Venus in Virgo as other planets when I had already counted it as chart ruler. IP: Logged |
