I just chewed an entire pack of Orbit gum.
What’s the astrology?
Can I blame the Moon in Taurus? The Moon rules food and Taurus rules comfort and I just ate dinner and I don’t want to snack mindlessly and there was the gum! Comfort gum! Yeah right… not the same as Bearitos!
The Sun hasn’t been in Aries all that long and I swear all I feel is Taurus. It’s like the Sun is underwater and yet Taurus is earth so maybe it’s Mercury retrograde into Pisces that feels so muddy and murky to me and I am reminded of April on the way which means Mercury direct and Mars direct.
Aries, as well, is my 8th House which is Scorpio’s natural house so that could partly be why I’m feeling the water vibe. Or is it that New Age music I’m listening to with the waterfall sounds 😉
Mercury and Saturn are inconjunct right now which means… they don’t have anything in common. Mercury is in a water sign and Saturn is in an air sign. Mercury is in a mutable sign and Saturn is in a cardinal sign. How can they possibly understand each other. Key word for the inconjunct is “adjustment.”
Oppositions can see each other across a crowded room. For example you know Aries sees that pretty Libra over there! And squares are inside you — you live with that tension. Fixed squares, for example, are the hardest to work through. Why? Because they are FIXED. They don’t move. The problem keeps coming up.
And this reminds me of a synastry thing — I had Mars square Mars with my ex-boyfriend and it did feel that we could “move through the energy” because the square was in cardinal signs. Cardinal is dynamic, creative energy that WANTS to change and grow. On the other hand… Mars in Aries vs. Mars in Cancer? Ouch!
But back to the inconjuct: Mercury and Saturn together in this aspect could mean that… you don’t know when to speak. Not that you don’t WANT to speak. It becomes a matter of timing. And maybe it is what to say or how to say it. Somehow the natural communication gets interrupted. You overthink. Or others overthink what you say. Or that’s how it feels to you. That you feel like you must adjust something so basic… it’s like you need a new signature. You must adjust to yourself.
Do you have inconjuncts in your chart? Do you adjust?

Hm, good question. I think I do both, think love, feel love, think about love, rationalize it…Venus sqaure uranus & neptune too.
As for my moon, do both there too. Sometimes I scare myself, worry about myself, etc, & at the same time I accept that 8th houseness…
Do I sound like a confused person? :p
And that last analysis= ACCURATE.

(I really enjoy how you intrigue me to study my chart-not sure if that’s proper wording but I’m in a haze of energy right now)
SO, I discover that I have moon inconjunct venus. Makes sense-moon in pisces, venus in libra. & I feel this energy though I don’t know how to articulate it right now. Venus in the 3rd house, moon in the 8th- logic & prettiness inconjunct emotions & grittiness…. BAM.
I’m glad! Venus in the 3rd in Libra is very….. thinky. Rational. Do you “think” love instead of “feel” love?
And yet your Moon is spooky deep goodness! Very intuitive, absorbing, could either be easily spooked or you welcome the darker impulses within….
I feel like Venus in Libra wants it all nice-nice and harmonized and CONTROLLED and Moon Pisces in the 8th is about surrendering control or the lack of it!
I don’t know about the common wisdom of inconjuncts. It seems to me that quite a few inconjuncts DO have fundamental things in common. Both Aries and Scorpio are ruled by Mars, both Libra and Taurus are ruled by Venus, Virgo and Aquarius both have the quick-minded, adaptable Mercurial influence in common, and Leo and Pisces seem compatible. I admit that the other pairings seem pretty different, though. What do you think?
Too much gum chewing will give you a big, fat headache. I have sun in cancer inconjunct my ascendant in Capricorn and mercury in cancer inconjunct Neptune in Sagittarius. I’m not sure I know how to recognize mercury/Neptune but I definitely struggle with sun/ascendant even though they’re both cardinal, I sometimes feel I’m two different people. I have semisextiles, semisquares & sesquiquadrates, too which may contribute to the feeling of many personalities. Lots of different things not cooperating. I get the mars thing too. I had a friend with mars in Scorpio in the 12th which didn’t play nice with my mars in Leo in the 8th at all…live and learn. 😉
My Pisces Sun is squared my Sagitarius Uranus, nearly squared my Sagitarius Neptune, and trined both my Scorpio Jupiter and my Cancer Midheaven. It doesn’t interact with anything else, though, not even all that business in my first house. I do feel like the two sets of energy are in different rooms in the same house, so to speak: they can hear each others’ music and sometimes conversations through the walls, but they seem to be speaking different languages. My Mars/Saturn/Pluto/Venus stuff keeps having loud arguments about money and fidelity. My Sun tries to stick with my Jupiter, with which it enjoys quiet conversations when everyone else is asleep, but keeps getting drawn into wacky adventures with my Uranus. Sometimes, my Aries Moon tags along, but it’s usually having its own loud arguments with my Libra Ascendant and Cancer Midheaven about manners.
