I'm becoming more and more into music but I have natal placements that support it.

elixir, what kind of music do you want to experiment with? Good luck btw.

By the time it left I've studied, two quantum physics courses, (for which I received certificates, thank you muchly), one in music production, songwriting, another in thinking mathematically, studying logic, international criminal process, the business of mental health, helping kids with math deficiency (and mild dyscalculia), and inspiring leadership - developing greater empathy in terms of management.

So ... from February 2012 to March 2013, I studied all of the above via MOOCs.

Go Jupiter, huh?

My 9H is ruled by Venus, incidentally, in my 12H; and Jupiter rules my 4H. I worked at my own pace, in the seclusion of my own home. Perfect!

Neptune is definitely a factor. While the QP was something to which I'd wanted to return since I studied astrophysics in college, (just as a minor), there was a very practical reason why I started studying with Berklee Music, as production is something at which I've wanted to become more adept in the digital age. t-Nep began opposing my natal Venus just as I began studying with Berklee.

So, Venus, Neptune - it's all involved. Definitely the 9H and 3H, too.

@i'm so cappy do you do anything with music, or sing maybe?

That's mostly Mercury, right? I know that Venus and Neptune have a hand in things, too. Music obsesses me. If I'm trying to deal with something, I usually go through an intense songwriting period - or just do a lot of singing. I'm rather theatrical - for a Scorp Merc, (in the 3H, though; I'm also a dramatic writer) but that might be the conjunction to Eros. I love singing intense, passionate stuff, and emote very strongly through my singing. It kinda floors people. Heh. For someone who's practically Spockish, I just come alive in my music (or my acting; I'm a very versatile actor, too.) It's like I hold onto all of it until BAM - it comes out in my music, or my writing; my creativity in general.

I landed the role of Harley Quinn for a Batman musical in development when t-NNode hit my Merc-Eros, with Psyche bouncing about on my Moon and t-Venus trining everything and opposing my natal. How perfect is that? I ended up gutting the character, too, and digging in deep. The producers were thrilled. Hey, that's what happens when you give a character to a psychotherapist. We're going to delve like mad into that.

I also ended up developing a very unique voice for her, too. Reminiscent of Ellen Greene's Audrey from Little Shoppe.

Well a friend sent me some links to download programs where you can make your own music. I thought that was so cool. I have always been intimidated by making music because some people seem so good at it. I want to try it out and see if I can do it in the future. For now, I will just stick to learning the guitar though.

Don't hold back, elixir. My father's a hell of a songwriter, and so I was always naturally intimidated. But when I came to LA, I shocked myself by writing dozens of songs in the last few years - most of them in very intense 72 hour periods. Like, 3 songs, in 3 days. Crazy. All over the place, too: rock, musical, alternative, soulful, kids music (but that one was inspired by my cat) - whatever.

I actually begun writing when I was approached by a musician looking for it. I thought, and I quote, 'okay, but I can't write music.'

15 minutes later, I had my first song. Seriously. Actually, what I was saying was, 'I can't write a techno song.' You'd be AMAZED at how easy it is to write a friggin' techno song.

So, don't hold yourself back. Grab something that records you can hold in your hand, (I use my iPhone) and keep it handy when you're 'in a writing cycle'. And good luck! If you can make it as a songwriter, man, the royalties are glorious. Everything back-end. Sometimes, you have to sell yourself slightly short to get a deal with a label, but the best advice is to always hold out for the royalties. Even if that means you're getting nothing up front. That's okay. In the future, you can. And to ridiculous tunes of tens of thousands of dollars. PLUS royalties.

Jupiter and Mercury in the 5th, nice. Neptune and Uranus in the 10th - the potential to work in the music industry...electronic music?

For the techno song, I literally just popped the song into my iTunes, and ... the words just came into my head. I was dealing with a rough relationship at the time, so I'm sure that helped. (Man. He has SO become That Guy. You know. The one that the chick singer rants about in her music? Augh. I'm such a cliche.)

It used to be that I was a straight lyricist. But recently, I've been able to write actual songs. For that, the music was composed, and I was just writing the lyrics and main melody. I'd be happy to share it with you as an example. It's hardly great work, but not bad for literally one hour of my time.
