Do you go deep into a chart? I am doing more and more readings and… I realize that I like only one (!) chart in my head at a time. As I write this I realize I’m the same way in love: monogamous! I look at the wheel, look at placements, begin to grasp the aspects and it’s like swimming. I sink a little. But then I MUST arrange the fish! Clarity from all those squiggles and lines and glyphs. And they talk too. Not in words… but they talk.
I have Mercury in Cancer in the 11th, Neptune in Scorpio in the 3rd. These trine. When looking at a chart, I get my information from the astrology but also from… from what comes up from the deep, and it’s better if I don’t analyze it. Moon Pluto aspects (I have the conjunction in the 1st) encourage this kind of thinking. Emotional depth. (My Mercury Mars in Cancer in mutual reception with my Moon Pluto in Virgo.) And sometimes (often) I wish I had a stellium in fire, pure pure lightening fast flashes to balance out the deep. Make it all go faster!
Today’s Inspirational Message 🙂 is that we must… accept (try try try to accept or at least not disparage, not discourage) who we are, accept the way we do it. And make adjustments when needed. But don’t hate your way. If you’re a Cancer Sun, then know that you move sideways. If you’re a Pisces Sun, then know that you are going to feel all the emotions in the room. And if you’re a Leo Sun? Well, you are King (or Queen) and that’s that!
We use astrology (to give but one example) to find out who we are, to put words to… things we’ve always felt, but… didn’t have the words for. Treat that knowledge tenderly.
Note to self: a little bit of Virgo goes a long way

I have a difficult time with synthesis. I need to look at a person’s natal, progressed and solar charts for this year and next and then add the transits on top of it all….and then I am overwhelmed and afraid to say anything.
sometimes something will jump out and be a signature about the chart, and then other stuff grows on that. oh, and I need to sit with a chart for several days, letting insights come to the surface.
I’m not very good at getting a dialogue going.
I use astrology for problem solving, going to the root, and understanding the energetic makeup of self and others.
Mia, you are right. It does cleanse. I want to write more about this later, too. I’m glad you commented, too. I wonder if posts like this even interest others, but I am fascinated by process, my own process as well as others’.
Where Virgo is,you coach.With a pluto moon there.. Go figure: really into helping others. Service, that also cleanse you. I have Mercury on Capricorn on my 10th. Not far away there is the Sun conj to jupiter+neptune on sag. Also my 10th. Pisces rising, thank my soul to chose that little but of capricorn,just where my head is. I analyse,I feel. And so do you. I look at the charts,then I create dialogs between the alignments. I create stories to imagine their interaction. And those stories stay with me. I can forget a name, but I never forget the asc. I can forget a smell of an ex, but I can’t forget how his moon in virgo and cancer rising took very good care of me.. And so it is.
