Sometimes when I look at pictures of people I get jealous because I'm thinking that could be me "if I just knew what style I wanted a bit earlier on"…. I can have a hard time deciding what I actually want to look like - so many opportunities… And other people seem to just develop their own personal style and look more and more through the years, where I feel i'm sometimes stuck with no identity/no special look like everyone else… What causes this in astrology? So many people seem to unite their look with their lifestyle and their overall life pretty well, whereas others as me constantly struggle with it "So what do I want to wear today - don't know" And the question keeps popping up: "Who am I really, and what do I want from life?"

Do you have prominent Neptune in your chart? Is your Sun afflicted? There are many things that could be causing this.IP: Logged |

I want to know the answer to this as well. I have the same troubles. I tend to absorb my surroundings and am easily influenced by the people in my life. I almost "adopt" their personality traits, mannerisms and opinions as if they're my own (to an extent).I have been asked before "what are you passionate about" or "how would you define yourself" and I really don't have a good answer to either question. I am the same way with my clothing style - I struggle to put outfits together that are "my own" and find clothes shopping to be overwhelming except for basic pieces. I read that if the Sun is not well aspected it can be a contributing factor. If someone wants to check my natal I am June 19, 1986 1:12pm. IP: Logged |

I knew somebody born on June 21, 1986.All I can say is wait till transiting Uranus conjuncts your Sun in Gemini, then your individuality and sense of style will come out for sure. From what I can recall, there is a very loose Sun Uranus opposition at that time and so you are being pulled towards how others are etc. Maybe following their ways and rebelling against it, could be the case. I have this natally, but once your Uranus half return starts, the unique soul that you are will come shining out. IP: Logged |

Apparently I have in my natal (in order of loosest to tightest orb): Sun oppose Uranus Sun trine Pluto Sun oppose Neptune Sun conjunct Midheaven Sun square Ascendant That's a lot going on I guess? How would I determine when the Uranus transit will occur? (Still new to this ) IP: Logged |

I have prominent Neptune but I have no problem doing my own style, I have strong Uranus aspects though. I'm more confused on what to do with my life, not how to express myself physically. Never really cared about other people's style, just did my own thing. I don't know Venus/Libra/7th house tend to want to fit in or be like others, maybe its related to that? IP: Logged |

I have this! It's my Sag sun conj Neptune H1, I'm sure. Probably combined with a Libra Mars doesn't help.

Neptune can confuse things via opposition, where your not seeing yourself straight...... I figure you have another 13 - 15 years before Uranus conj your Sun, or unless another major transit to your Sun opens things up for you. Though, you have a Saturn return coming up and that can be a strong transit that brings things up. IP: Logged |

Sun square Ascendant seems to be responsible for those problems a lot. I also get a "half the time I want to be this, and then I want to be that" from this aspect.IP: Logged |

I have sun opposite moon (and it's pisces moon) sun conjunction mars sun square uranus (but it's really wide - 8 degrees) and sun sextile ascendant (but also wide - 5 degrees)and sun in 4th house…. my neptune is prominent, but not that much… My uranus makes some strong aspects like moon square uranus and mars square uranus, but that's it! But my moon is really afflicted and it's pisces so maybe that is some of it? And I have MC in pisces too, and my neptune is not great aspected either! But I do know what I want in life, according to my career and stuff like that, but I don't know what cloth and stuff to wear on a daily basis who gives me the unique look that people will notice and remember… IP: Logged |

I have this. I thought it was some different pulls by asc sun & moon. For eg I definitely like sag relaxed style (moon), have a weakness for overall taurean-look (sun) and fabrics & like the Scorpio mask as an armour (asc). But this does then include having sun opp asc conj uranusIP: Logged |

Oh preach! Preach!!! When it comes to personal style, I am kinda rigid and old-fashioned. My sister says that I tend to be "safe". That's Venus conjunct Saturn. I really do like to keep it simple. When it comes to a question of "who am I?" and "what am I supposed to do with my life?", that's Sun conjunct Neptune. I really have no idea and am still best trying to answer this question. When it comes to where I am going with my career,that is Mars in Libra.I simply can't seem to make an affirmative decision about that at all. My contract ended with my last employer when Jupiter was squaring Mars; I've been in limbo ever since IP: Logged |

Astrology freaks me out some times OR did I write this some where else and you just quote is as your own? This is exactly me! Exactly!
