But fiery Sun sq Scorpio Pluto (instant heavy energy right here) and trine a fire moon makes it a strong contender

Ha, interesting. So you have a 1st h stellium in cap?

I also technically have a 1st H stellium - Saturn, Uranus and Neptune all sit there. Guess that would mute out the Leo for sure.

I read somewhere that Sag ASC actually beings out more of the "happy go lucky" Sag qualities than even the sun.

Also it might help to note Jupiter's sign & placement.

Interestingly, I think both the Ascendant and the Sun are how you see yourself. I just feel like the Ascendant is a very instinctual way of seeing yourself and describing yourself, while the Sun is more of a conscious energy and requires more confidence and will to be like that. You are your Ascendant, in an instant, while you have to work yourself up to be like your Sun.

I also have that pesky fixed square between Leo Sun and Scorpio in Pluto

For example, when extraverting, the self is projected out into the environment for exploration and engagement, it would make sense for this to be an ASc.-driven experience.

When introverting, the self is inward-focused where the seeds of the identity first began to develop, so it would make sense for this to be a Sun-driven experience.

I spend most of my time quite introverted and it is issues around my Aquarius Sun and other personal planets that I am exploring.

However, in my band, I must be extraverted as the singer, and I see more of my Libra stellium (including ASc.) qualities, as well as when I am interacting with groups or individuals in my work or social life.

Otherwise, in life generally my sun sign, Taurus (which also holds my Saturn, Mercury, and Venus - 4 planets in a sign outweighs a rising sign sometimes).

Ha, your username is Southern Sun - sounds pretty leonine to me

Hmm, when interacting with others I feel the pisces ascendant, when I am by myself I feel my aqua sun and moon more, probably because they are in the 12th house.

Do you feel more Aquarius because of the conjunction maybe?

I have a Libra Sun/Moon conjunction and I can barely identify with my Capricorn Rising. I am not hardworking, although I can seem stiff and quiet at times.

I've always really wanted to ask others about their Sun/Moon conjunctions and how it influences them.

theres a gut feeling that i was born in the early morning and i'm a libra ascendant. that would give me a 3H stellium which could explain the gemini hints

but the main kicker that gives me the gut feeling that she lied to me about being born in the afternoon = the moon.

as a female the moon is really important because it's stronger and just more in tune, like the sun in more important for men.

if i was born as my mother said = cap sun in 8th house (cap/scorp energy then0

if i was born as my gut says = sag sun in 2nd house. (sag/taurus)

that sagittarius/taurus mix makes so much more sense to me and it resonates to my gut.

also that puts my ascendant in my fathers 12th house - that bit of synastry right there = sums up our relationship like you wouldn't believe

but if i'm right - then yes to do resonate to my ASC and my MC - like for example then my cap sun in 3rd house is the foundations of a house that you don't see but you know it's there and it needs to be there, but day to day i experience the libra asc and the leo mc more often

if my mother is right = i resonate with my cap sun, not any of the 8th house stuff to be honest and the angles all equally. don't really feel like a cap moon. makes no sense to me..
