What do you think my placements are? For this experiment, I only describe my expression of the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars. The purpose of this experiment is to see which placements I openly express and which ones I do not. It is possible I express all 5 personal planets openly, but if I do not then after seeing everyone's responses I will know which ones to study. The experiment involves me stating reality, not a description of the placement. If I just described the placement, I wouldn't have any reason to start this thread. I understand the meaning of the placements themselves, just not the expression and reality of my chart. Through this experiment, I intend to get a better understanding of what I'm like to other people and learn more about myself. So just focus on what sounds right more than what is right, because I guarantee I am not just describing placements but myself as well. Secondly, I deeply apologize for how long these descriptions are. I just wanted to have enough details for people to work from. I hate giving vague answers more than anything. ---- Anyway, here is my description of how I express the planets: Sun (General identity; basic personality): As a whole, I am stubborn, lazy, and deceptively quiet (as in, I can be talkative). I am also detached from the physical; however, I can responsibly indulge in physical pleasure and material items. I love computers, writing, and almost anything that's considered different. I'm good at managing money and spending wisely. I get bored easily and work at my own pace. My most negative traits are jealousy and possessiveness. Sometimes I am creative. I am extremely logical and at times cynical. Moon (Emotions; needs): Emotionally, I need mental simulation or I get bored. I am not emotionally expressive. It takes a lot for me to show someone my emotions, but when I do I can be surprisingly sensitive, caring, and kind. Not many people know how I'm feeling and I usually deal with things on my own. I have severe trust issues. Expressing my emotions takes time as opening up is not easy for me. Although it doesn't seem like it, I need emotional connection and depth in my life. I do not like superficial things. My connections have to be real. Do not betray my trust or it takes a long time to get it back. I do not forgive people easily when they cross the line and I can put up with a lot from other people. I have heard that I'm hard on myself both emotionally and mentally. Mercury(Communication; learning style): When I communicate with other people, I am typically straightforward and blunt. I try to be considerate of other peoples' emotions, so I do attempt to communicate without causing anyone harm. However, my honesty can be painful to hear. I consider myself open to new ideas as long as they do not interfere with my freedom to choose. I enjoy learning things, but my memory is awful and I tend to forget stuff if I don't write it down. My learning must be fun and mentally stimulating or I get bored; this is why I do not do well just learning in the classroom. I learn by doing first and observing second. Venus (Tastes; values; romance): I value beauty and visual appeal. Before I am able to love someone, I must first be attracted to them physically. However, I also value intellect and shared interests. I do not pursue someone that has just looks. Since I require mental stimulation, someone must be able to appeal to that too. In romance, I expect loyalty, passion, and intensity but with that intensity I need some degree of stability. So, no arguments 24/7. I like someone who is responsible and dedicated. They should be good with money. Overall, I value complexity and getting to know someone gradually. Mars (Drive; passions; expression of anger): It takes a while to get me going but once I am going you can't stop me. When I want something, I tend to go after it almost obsessively and I tend to get it too. My anger is often times self-destructive and directed inward. I do not often express it openly. When other people are exposed to my anger, it is verbal and explosive. My passion is strong and well-expressed. ---- Now that you know how I express the personal planets, I'd like to know what you think. Which sign is each personal planet in based on my descriptions? Let's ignore reality for the time being. IP: Logged |

That's the other Mercury I thought of but... hmmm Sagittarius and Virgo can be even more blunt than Aries at times. I think Aries would be my third guess, if it's not the other two! IP: Logged |

I like this challenge. Sun: Aquarius. The jealousy and possessiveness do not fit Aqua but can be explained by the moon sign. Moon: Scorpio. The need for mental stimulation may be due to Aquarius sun. Mercury: Since I picked aquarius sun, mercury can either be capp, Aquarius, or Pisces. I choose Aquarius. Venus: never too far from the sun, could be either Capp, Aqua, or Pisces. has to be Capp. Mars: taurus or scorpio IP: Logged |

i think it would have been helpful to know the ascendant, as it can color all the other planets. IP: Logged |

Sun - Taurus (maybe a Cappy... maybe you have Cappy rising?)Moon - My gut instinct says Sag, but that thing where once betrayed you're done, sounds a little Pisces. ??? Mercury - Virgo / Edit: "My learning must be fun and mentally stimulating or I get bored" sounds like an Aries, actually. Venus - Aquarius? Could be Taurus as well (the slowness in relationships) Mars - Aries, classic Aries Mars. ------------------ “Most people would rather be sheep than stand on their own with antlers on.” IP: Logged |

Hmmm... Now I'm curious why everyone is guessing a transpersonal Moon sign. I didn't get that impression. They have a "vibe".. that's.. yeah.. "transpersonal-ish" loll I'm not sure how to explain that in so many words. IP: Logged |

I found everyone's guesses interesting. I typed up an analysis of the results and found out a lot of information based on what everyone said.The experiment was a success and if anyone is interested, I can post the results. In the meantime, here are my real placements for those that are curious about their accuracy: Sun in Taurus Moon in Gemini Mercury in Aries Venus in Taurus Mars in Aries Ascendant in Scorpio And I wonder what the Rooster is like in Chinese astrology. I'm actually a Monkey. IP: Logged |

The Scorpio ascendant colored every one of the personal planets. I think that's what threw me off.

I can see I guessed all your placements youhoo with the exception of the Moon, I saw it as Virgo instead of Gemini. But I sensed it to be in the 8th...is your Moon by any chance in the 8th house? Thank you ------------------ I seem to have loved you in numberless forms... AstroMandala Summer Readings IP: Logged |
