I have a sextile to Venus (using reasonable orbs) - I am at my best when flirting. There. And choosing among pretty things.

I excel in job interviews or anything related to jobs/business. I also do really well when it comes to dealing with authority figures. On the flip side I really struggle with spontaneous communication and small talk. For example I was in a bookstore just yesterday and got the feeling that a girl wanted me to talk to her because she kept lingering near me every aisle I went to. Maybe it was just a really big coincidence that she managed to always be right beside of me in this huge store but I definitely got the impression it was a pre-meditated thing on her part, basically it was her way of saying "talk to me stupid!"; and truth be told I thought she was cute I wanted to talk to her but I couldn't think of anything to say because the whole thing was just so random.

As if you have all these women after you. Get real man.
You must be a woman then since you seem to have all the dating power, as you say they have.
She probably was annoyed because every book she wanted to see, there you were. She's probably on fb talking about that creepy guy at the book store.
But I'm not arguing with you in Faith's thread about this. So have at it.
Get your clever last word and move on.

My mind works best when I'm thinking outside the box, writing, reading, listening to music, drawing/artistic pursuits, researching, science, computers, doing imaginative things.

Alright. Everything but my Sun and Venus touches my Mercury. So where do you want me to start?

That alone shows my ADHD - it looks awesome having that many aspects, but my mind is just always racing. I'm having some trouble separating all of them.

- Conjunct Mars in H11: Over. Active. Mind. I could end it here, but I don't want to. Impulsive thoughts popping into my head 24/7. Get restless easily, especially when I can't do something to stretch my muscles. I play with pens, stress balls, write things down to channel that nervous energy [Mercury] to some sort of action [Mars] I get my best ideas when I'm taking a walk or something like that. I'm quite soft and feminine, but my mind can handle "man's talk", so I often click well with men. Probably Mars in H11 helping here.

- Trine Moon exact. One of my favourite aspects and you actually had to point out to me how great it is! Once I can find the words, talking about my feelings is easy. It's so weird, at first I always think it's going to be hard, but once I get talking/writing... it all just flows. I actually have a harder time not talking about feelings all the time. Sympathising/showing support through talking is my thing, too.

- Sextile Chiron. Words hurt. My mind works best trying to share and teach from experience. It's so important to me to be aware of what I say and especially what not, because of how it could be received.

- Sextile Pluto. Not arguing here (lol), but once I'm really mad and no way out, I've found I can trust Pluto to give myself the power to go through with it. I often avoid or let myself get scared into backing off, so yeah. Oh, and research. So much research.

- Trine Neptune. Creativity, art, swimming or being near water gives me so much inspiration. Meditation, yoga, massage, spirituality, etc. all clear my mind. Music has a really strong impact on my mood.

- Trine Saturn. Holding back and controlling my tongue. Yeah, pretty sure I have Saturn to thank for that. Glad for that, too, I feel it balances out that Mars conjunction. Patience for listening, especially intently and while taking the other seriously. Analysing probably, too.

- Quintile Jupiter. Languages! Studying! Learning more about my interests. Yes, travelling is inspiring, too, so is talking to foreigners (or at least people from a different background). Jokes, laughing and just being positive can change my mindframe right away.

And some programs say I have a minor aspect to Uranus, too, but I forgot which one it is. They're 107 degrees apart. Wait, is it the tridecile? I guess being creative, out of the box, while using technology, alternative interests. Astrology

And Mercury in H12: Somewhere quiet to block out any noises gives me my best ideas. Calms my mind a lot, too. Dreams - as in their symbolism, what they say about my emotional and mental state. Again, I've gotten ideas for art/writing projects through my dreams, where someone would say it or I read it, or through a song whose lyrics put me on the right track. Bizarre, huh? But it always worked. Film, TV and photography are great mediums, too. And water.

I have Cancer Mercury in the 12th, Quintile my Moon-Pluto in 3rd. This creates an easy flow between my mind, spirit, and emotions. I don't have a problem talking about emotions or spiritual matters, and I am extremely in touch with my own.

Those emotional and spiritual matters are usually tied to one primary subject of thought for me, though. SEX!

My Mercury squares my Uranus 1°, which is my 8th house ruler and sits in my 4th on my IC. So, there's a link between Cancer/4th, Pluto/8th and Mercury energy.

My Mercury also forms an exact Grand Trine between my Lilith in Scorpio 4th house and my Eros in Pisces. So there's another link between 12th house Mercury and Eros Pisces energy with Plutonian and Cancerian energy.

Then, Mercury squares my MC 2°.

@Wild Horses, are you a guy?

@Comatoes, I think cookbook astrology is just wrong on Mercury square Uranus. Most of the people I know who have the aspect are very clever with sparkly minds. My own square is just complicated because it's Aqua Mercury squaring Uranus. The tension of "Don't skip way out of bounds this way, go thata way!"

@Rie, how did I forget your 11H Mars? Matching my own? No wonder we're such party animals.

I thought you always bragged (and others about you) how you have tough skin. I guess I sliced through that.
I can find you on fb if you want.

But remember...
With you being a mod and the way Randall is about his mods...
Where does that leave me if I want to stay here?

You have permission to contact me personally. (or me you, I know your fb) Everyone sees my offer.

YOU are playing the public chest puffing game. Talking about how you handle Leos and beating your brother up.
What have I done?
I've been trying to get you to "be a man" as you always like to say and spare these people.

You have my offer.

I think it absolutely contributes to me being a very strong, fearless thinker. I guess what I mean is that I'm not afraid to speak my mind. I'm honest, sometimes a little to honest, but to me I'd rather have truthful under my belt than a liar. I'm quite imaginative and dreamy, and not afraid to talk about it. I am secretive but not afraid of talking to people to a certain degree. I close up once it goes too deep, I have to trust the person or people first. Mentally I'm very balanced despite the many troubles I've had growing up. Sometimes I think people take what I write and say the complete opposite of what I meant. I'm misunderstood waaaay more often than I'd like to be and I'm sure it's all do to the many aspects I have I love writing and reading. I love Spanish and foreign languages. I looove music it does wonders for me when I'm upset or overthinking. You'd think Mecury would be my ruling planet with all of its aspects so it kind of makes me weirded out and wondering why its pluto LOL.

My biggest struggle would be explaining things to people instead of assuming that they're mind readers. I have a really hard time explaining certain things deeply, I just assume people can read it or feel it out of me, because I just so happen to do the same with them. Not sure if this will make sense. I'm incredibly intuitive and expect people to be the same, when most of the time they aren't.

I'm pretty restless and am constantly sharing and thinking about ideas. However, I have a hard time falling asleep a lot because I can't shut it down! 1st house adds to sometimes speaking before I think, but that doesn't happen too often. Very good at dealing with different personalities; I can handle talking and communicating in different approaches to anyone, even in spontaneous situations.

I approach situations in a very logical and rational manner which helps me to write and teach. I don't make decisions too hastily, so I like to carefully study situations before simply speaking up (mostly, the 1st house comes out once in a while). People think that I am too serious before they get to know me, but after talking to me for a few minutes they find out I actually have a personality!

This is where the Jupiter kicks in. I like to think there are two sides to my communication: the serious business and the lighthearted humorous side. I use both of these when I teach and it really captures the interest and enthusiasm of my students. I speak in a positive, optimistic, and energetic manner that tends to attract people and earn their trust.

On a deeper level Pluto helps me to discuss analytically and getting to the core of issues. I really enjoy having deeper profound discussions- the superficial gets old very quickly. This adds to my ability to gain influence and trust over my students as I speak with passion and depth and challenge them to push their knowledge and boundaries.

As for Lillith...hehehe. Not for this thread!

Struggles? Probably, but as a 1st house Mercury (and stellium) I am probably too self-absorbed to notice!
