For Woman I'd say use your female intuition.I'm skeptical that people actually do find what there looking for on those sites. True story I travel on VIA Rail at least 2 times a weeks its the equivalent of Amtrack in the US for anyone thats not familiar with VIA Rail. The guy sitting in front of me one day was on Tinder looking at matches..at first I'm thinking you dirty old man traveling to another city just for a hook up..... Then I noticed he kept on hitting reject and I'm thinking your standards are to high..but your no prince either.

I had an idea about something like astrological Tinder. Like by aspects. It could be nice if you can exclude certain aspects, placements from coming close by. It’s a much safer way to make friends 🙂IP: Logged |

Very neat idea lol. (random: there's an "astro deal-breakers" thread somewhere. I've not yet/probably never will post w/ explanation...but I'll take this moment to say Rahu/Ketu-1/7. horrible(untrustworthy/unloyal) people. F seems MUCH worse than M, but I may be biased since I'm an M-seeking-F for intimate/commitment purposes.)

lol Ketu-7 = loss of faith, trust, etc, in "Others" -> Rahu-1 = focus on & concern with Self IP: Logged |

What if reversed? I have NN conjunct descendant and SN conjunct ASC. I do tend to like to be alone and concentrate on myself but maybe a relationship will bring me to my NN. IP: Logged |

IDK how to interpret it. The reverse seems really great to me, the only 'negative' in life-success terms for Ketu-1 is it may make the individual kinda inactive/passive, but there should be something more?? IDK. The NN definitely brings solace on a whole-being level, though. So "Others", agreements, alliances, contracts, etc, is definitely it for you. With the Nodes, it's a life-long journey, and the SN is what we are safe/comfortable/etc with - so forcing the NN is not the thing to do, it'll happen naturally/over time. My browser history's says I've never read this page so I don't know what's here but I assume it'll be good: http://barbarapijan.com/bpa/Graha/Ketu/Ketu_in_bhava01.htm / here's NN too (also never read?): http://barbarapijan.com/bpa/Graha/Rahu/Rahu_domain7.htm

Thank you for these links! I haven’t seen this info before and reading through now. I’ve read some different things about it but I guess what rings true from it all is a relationship does not come natural to me. And good advice for not forcing the NN. Sometimes I think I try to force it but naturally is always the best way. Venus is conjunct SN/ASC too so there is more with it. IP: Logged |

You'd think Ketu-conj-Venus would doublewhammy the Ketu-7 effect, but that site specifically said it LESSENS the badness of Ketu-7. That's a roundabout way to say I have NO idea how that added in combo for you is supposed to work lol. On paper, Leo Venus/ASC/Ketu+Ketu-1 would read extremely self-centered... but that's not how you come across here/online, so idk. SN shows us with what we have great, natural skill, so conj Venus (accommodativeness/social gracefulness) may be overpowering the Venus-1 Selfish/selfcentered Effect (Venus and H1 are contradictions, you see why now right) idk. One thing I'll add about the Nodes is the axis seems to be bipolar + a slippery slope & hard to balance. It's said a great height of Rahu may be achieved then your plateau of success will go down in flames suddenly, and my experience is you'll [want to(!)] revert to your SN hardcore. In 1-7 this would be like a person getting a relationship(7) and building self-confidence(1) from it so they finally feel good about themselves, but that self-confidence somehow causes that relationship to bust... then they enter a string of relationships after relationships after relationships without ever really feeling 'good' about themSelves; for you, 7-1, it may be like... you enter a marriage-level relationship, think you've found "The One", then the relationship fails, so you go into a hyper focus/improve-self phase. I have it 10-4 and I... when I suspect a fall from public grace(10 - public opinion) am VERY quick to re-hermit-ify(4 - core-self, private safezone, "shell" etc). So... just be mindful lol.

Tinder is not application to make friends, I think you know this. Is an application for casual dating or hoooking up.IP: Logged |

I have Venus conjunct SN, too, and my moon. I’m not feeling well, so can’t say much right now. Romantic relationships don’t come easily to me, either. I think they would have if I hadn’t had certain experiences. IP: Logged |

I don’t think you can completely predict it. However, to know what you might need to deal with - a nice option.IP: Logged |

Never used it but several of my friends have. I think it’s super sketch. I don’t know that I would ever subject myself to that kind of random happenstance. You never know who you’re talking to or what they’re really up to.IP: Logged |

Took a while to finish those articles but very good info on there! I did resonate with some of what was written. Especially the part of others projection on me. I do feel people make up what they want me to be without really knowing me. Also what was said about feeling disconnected to your body or other people rings true. My node is actually one degree before ASC so in 12th house. I read 12th house article and parts of both seem to make sense. You are right about Venus conj ASC overpowering or masking other things in my chart because I have moon sq mars tight and people don’t see that side unless they hit that nerve lol. Also the last bit you wrote about going from NN to SN is true! Even with just a breakup I tend to try to fix myself after.

In that link ULT posted there is an article about Venus conjunct SN. I can relate to some of it. What house is your Venus/SN? Wonder how that effects you. IP: Logged |

@MMarie: Glad you liked it. Unfortunately Vedic suffers from too-strict verbiage and is often outdated in modern times (there is justification for this to an extent, but that's a topic for another day). Unfortunately this means you need to really understand Astrology symbolism to get relevant/true meaning. Anyhow, if you want some fun, take a quick read of Rahu-10 there then realize Trump has Rahu-10 lol (he has Sun-10 too, which makes him want authority/power even more, which is why he's like Rahu-10 x1000).
