Those hard aspects had to come from somewhere!For example I’m Uranian and was a latchkey kid. My parents were busy putting food on the table, my dad especially worked super long hours. I was always left to my own devices. As a kid I’d cook, clean, iron then zip out the door for school all on my own. My parents gave me permission to fake their signature for school stuff because they didn’t have time for that. I was my own parent 
I never wanted to burden my already stressed parents with my problems, so I toughened up for them and dealt with my own problems. This is probably what “programmed” me into becoming Uranan. As far as being *weird* hmmm my family are weird so that could be where I get it from.

I have moon conjunct neptune which can indicate (on a low vibration) having a mother/maternal figure who was not really there in some way. Can be someone who had a drinking/drug problem. I had a mother who had a drug problem. My moon (as well as my sisters') is in Aquarius which even more enforced us to HAVE to be independent under circumstances. Aquarian moon can indicate your mother being more of a friend than a parent.IP: Logged |

Interesting question. Pluto dominates my chart. I grew up in a manipulative environment. From the outside everything looked fine in my family, but there were lots of skeletons in the closet. I learned to read between the lines. I realized that the morals, ethics, religious values they talked about were pure BS, just a mask they put on for others. I got to witness their hypocrisy live. I think it created trust issues in me, recently I have been able to trust again and I feel like a weight has been lifted off my chest. Pluto in 1H, Pluto/Sun, Mercury/Pluto and Moon in 8H in my chart might be responsible for this. Financially my parents were well-off, they gave me what I wanted, but emotionally, there was nothing there, no warmth, affection. To some extent, I was lucky, my grandparents were there for me to provide some warmth, but they had their own issues to deal with. So, I had to learn to support myself on an emotional level, I had to learn to accept myself, love myself. Astrologically, I'm not sure what would be responsible for this, Sun conjuncts my Saturn exactly, but I think Moon would deal with the warmth part, Moon trines my Saturn widely, I also have Saturn in 4th. I do view my parents differently now, they too are human beings and we all have our flaws, I think I expected them to behave like ideal parents, perfect in every aspect. Another thing I learned was not to unmask people if they're not ready for it. I used to call people out on their BS during my childhood, and it got me in lots of trouble for obvious reasons. These days, I don't interfere much, its their life afterall, they're free to live however they want. For this Pluto-Sun, Mercury-Pluto and Pluto in 1st might be responsible. Even during my childhood, I used to feel the urge to get what I wanted no matter what, by hook or by crook. I remember myself crying for hours infront of a toy shop because my grandparents refused to buy the toy I wanted, well, in the end, they bought it for me. For this, Mars/Pluto and Mars/Nessus might be responsible. Even these days, I feel the same urge at times, but I act on them far less. I still remember telling my parents that they dominated me just because they were more powerful than me. For this, NN conjunct Pluto in Scorpio might be responsible. Other than all that, I was an easygoing Pisces kid who loved having fun, lol. I have plenty more to say, but this much for now, this was kind of like a catharsis for me  . Nice username btw, cottonball. IP: Logged |

Not sure where to start. One thing perhaps though is that my parents were always studying and my mum was very obsessive about it (studied all night and would spend hours on a tiny detail) because she had a fear of exams and also, being a libra, was a perfectionist. My dad otoh was very intuitive and would absorb and turn things over without much organisation - it was something more inward, almost religious about the process.This probably combines my merc opp Pluto, Venus square Saturn and somehow, but can't unpack it properly, moon/Neptune opp Jupiter. Can't really untangle the effects of each. I've a kind of perfectionism myself - different to my mums - where there's this horizon of almost getting to some sacred truth I.e. Involves a lot of belief, puzzles, work and often in an artistic or even love scenario. IP: Logged |

Moon in Pisces in the 3rd house square Jupiter in the 6th H.I was a slow learner growing up and a chubby kid, I've yet to fully shed that awkward chubby kid that was bad in school. IP: Logged |

I was abandoned by my father so my mother had to work multiple jobs to put food on the table. I grew up as a latchkey kid and looked after myself. My mom later told me that I was the most responsible teenager that anyone could imagine: I didn't sneak out, did my homework, volunteered and worked. The thing that I regret is that I missed out on so many childhood and teenage experiences because I was so busy trying to survive. I've felt like an adult for pretty much my entire life. My childhood amplified my 10th house saturn and made me extremely ambitious. My capricorn rising and capricorn moon reflects all of the hardship I faced IP: Logged | |
