Hi Aquarian Girl,

This is your thread sweetie, the one we'll be working on. Nice chart, Libra rising with your ruler Venus conjunct Neptune in the 3rd house. You're aspect is pretty exact so its strong but in a cadent house (3rd) this impact isn't as strong as say Pluto which is in the 1st and has a lot to do with the part of you that the world sees.

Venus conjunct Neptune


(Haydn Paul)

This conjunction of Neptune and Venus indicates that there is likely to be a high degree of idealisation in the spheres of romantic relationships, images of 'perfect lovers and partners' emanating from an overshadowing by either the anima (if male) or the animus (if female) inner patterns arising from the unconscious mind. When evoked by powerful emotions of love, lust, passion and attraction to another person, these images of perfection are projected onto the loved one, forming a glamour which is quite bewitching - until frail human nature eventually reasserts its presence and the image collapses through a phase of disillusionment, when the lovers fail to conform to that pattern of perfection which has been superimposed upon them.

Essentially, you'll have a simple, trusting attitude, which can become unwisely gullible at times, resulting in consequences of deception and exploitations. This emotional sensitivity makes you extremely vulnerable, and is often the source of difficulties in your personal and intimate relationships. You hate confrontation, tending to be more passive and giving, and will shy away from any emotional aggression and insensitivity shown by anyone. Part of your ideal relationship includes refined culture, art, music and literature as common interests or personal talents, and where the concepts and environments of harmony and beauty predominate in a peaceful and tranquil lifestyle. You have an appreciation of the more subtle delights of life, with a sensitive and perceptive aesthetic sense, and your standards of partner and lifestyle will be quite high and demanding.

There will be an active and vivid imagination at play, looking to see or create harmony and beauty, perhaps reflecting in an artistic manner contemporary fashions in art, music, literature, fashion and culture. Your heart will be soft and tender, and often that sensitivity will be unsuitable for many of the more jarring and discordant environments of the modern world; you will hate having to rush around jostling in large groups of people. You prefer those sophisticated cultural scenes, with perhaps a small grouping of successful and intelligent people. Being delicate in the modern wold which is swept by powerful collective changes can be a disturbing sensitivity.This is why you often wear those rose-coloured glases, so that the stark reality and grim harshness of certain aspects is not clearly perceived or is kept at a distance. You can't avoid the wholeness of the world, and such abrasive experiences often stimulate disturbances in your life, as if trying to force you to look at them without distortion. This tendency continues into evaluating others in a realistic manner, especially when projections are evoked; often you are disappointed when their true natures are revealed.

You can be too impressionable at times, especially through that emotional empathy with others, and can revert back into being an impractical, idealistic and ineffectual dreamer if clarity and focus are lacking. You may need to learn to stand on your own feet, and be less reliant on others. Some can succeed in expressing degrees of universal love, healing through their spiritual understanding and acceptance of others; but in treading this path, there is also the crucifixion of the heart, and a willingness to share in the world's suffering.

Hi
yes your Saturn in Virgo and Mercury in Capricorn make a mutual reception. Read them both its a trade off an unconcsious understanding of how to use these 2 planets to your advantage.

We haven't done your Ascendant yet, so lets do that

(Howard Sasportas)

Whereas Aries rising calls for wilful, decisive and self-assertive action, Libra on the Ascendant requires deliberation and carefully chosen action based on an objective and fair assessment of any situation. In other words what others need or want will have to be taken into consideration. Reflective judgement is a keynote for this Ascendant: various alternatives are weighted in the balance, and the most appropriate mode of being or acting is selected. However, the capacity to see another person's point of view as well as the ability to look at any situation from all its sides can be crippling to action. Hence the vacillation, the indecisiveness, and the sitting-on-the-fence reputation of Libra rising.

Choices are more easily made if we have a system of values on which to base them. The responsibility to establish a set of values, standards and ideals upon which action can be gauged rests heavily on the shoulders of this Ascendant. It would be so easy just to let another person decide for him / her. And even if Libra rising bases its actions on what is believed to be true and just, is there any guarantee that it will all work out beautifully in the end? A friend of mine is an avid sun-worshipper. On those rare days when the sun shines clearly and brightly in England, rather than spending the day at home in her back garden, she acts on her better judgement and dutifully drives to the office. As a reward we might reasonably expect that 'the gods' should smile down on her for such an honourable decision. But why does it always rain on her day off? Libra rising must learn to make choices and then to take the consequences for them.

Libra rising also means striking a balance between the 'masculine' and 'feminine' sides of life, between mystical urges and practical notions, between 'head' and 'heart', intuition and logic, and most of all between what we want and need and what others want and need. Libra on the Ascendant searches for the perfect relationship, the ideal philosophy, and for that which is harmonious and pleasing. There is often an interest in the arts and an attraction to such abstract systems as politics or mathematics, which offer symmetry and completeness of concept. Many of Libra rising's beliefs and ideals may be too high-minded in relation to the harsher realities of life. At the same time, this Ascendant can be very critical when something does not meet what is desired or expected. And those with this placement can be very tough: 'In the name of harmony you had better see it my way or else'. (Could this be Aries creeping in?)

Relationships are very important to Libra rising, and needed for personal evolution and growth. If Libra is on the Ascendant, then Aries is on the Descendant. In one sense, meeting Aries in the sphere of life associated with the partner elicits Libran qualities. If a partner is strongly self-centred and assertive (an Aries type), then the Libran Ascendant will have to learn to adjust and make concessions. However, if the other person becomes too unfair, pushy and demanding, then Libra rising learns to stand up for the self and demand the Libran traits of equality and balance. Opposites have a way of turning you into one another. If the Libran Ascendant doesn't like the way you are running the show, you will soon know. Libra will fight for its philosophy or political ideals with ferocity, quashing whatever doesn't fit into its vision of harmony and perfection.

Most textbooks attribute Libra rising with physical charm and a well-proportioned body, but with the stipulation that there is a tendency to put on weight due to laziness or over-indulgence. Air signs on the Ascendant generally have a refined rather than coarse look about them.
