I've been studying retrograde planets lately because I noticed a slight pattern involving someone's personal planets and their retrograde planets.
According to my light research, having a retrograde planet in the natal chart means you turn the nature of that planet inward. So does that mean they don't identify with this planet at all or at least they try not to? Out of the guys I've dated, the ones who had a retrograde planet aspecting a personal always seemed to deny that part of themselves or at least appeared as if the flavor of whatever planet is retrograde, doesn't exist in their personalities. Are they consciously aware they're hiding this aspect of themselves or is this the reason they attract those types of people?
For example:
A Taurus man with a Taurus moon. He has both his Sun and Moon in opposition to his Pluto in Scorpio retrograde. We dated for about a year and a half until he told me he loved me back for the first time since I first said it a few months before that. Right after that conversation, he vanished for 8 months until I recieved a reply from the many texts I sent and he simply said I was too involved. Was that fear? or was I just too passionate and intense for the steady, reliable BULL?
Should I blame retrograde pluto or those double taurus placements?
I am a Scorpio female with a stellium in Scorpio. My chart ruler is also Scorpio which rules my 7th house.
How can someone who is so plutonian (The double Taurus guy with both in opposition to pluto in scorpio retrograde) reject so much plutonian energy? I was too deep and too passionate. He never really got involved while leaving me helplessly in love.
He also has Venus in cancer in opposition to Uranus in Capricorn retrograde. So that could be a factor as well.
My main question is, How can comeone with so much of a retrograde planet's energy reject that same energy in another? I thought they could relate since in fact, that is a part of their personality.
