Random Astro Observations

Random Astro observations

-Leo suns with fire moons are just really talkative and social a lot of the time. At least the ones I have met so far. I have met people who react to small things with a big reaction who happened to all be Leo suns and an Aries moon. Sometimes I’ll have their sun conjunct my rising and I think that attracts them to me. I also blame having my ascendant aspecting my sun, Pluto, and Venus. It also has aspects with my Neptune and Lilith. So I’m used to people assuming that not trying to get to know me and just having a playful conversation with me bonds us somehow.

-That is another thing i swear I will do something just to see how long it will take for someone to adopt that mannerism. Honestly I have people at my work greeting me with 🤙🏻, and that’s mostly because I would just do that with them. Actually I wouldn’t even always use it with them, like I would deadass do it with someone else or even just randomly. I swear this isn’t the first time this has happened. Throughout most of my life I would just exist and the reactions people would have are interesting. I’m pretty sure they think my blank expression is me “trying to act cool” but really I’m just chilling in my own world since I’ve been entertaining myself a lot since I was a kid. Sometimes I’m just people watching like you can talk to me but again I’m just existing in this room. I’m not trying to do anything else besides what I need to do. Sorry for the long ass paragraph about myself. Truly a Leo rising moment I know.

-Sag mercuries will say shit just for the reaction of a person. I personally don’t really say stuff just to say stuff but I can understand the reason they do it sometimes. They just want to learn more about people. Idk it’s my main theory so far. As an Aries Mercury I will talk to myself more than others. I find sag mercuries entertaining for sure, but I know that if I said anything too blunt I could harm them. I wonder if my lack of words influences this as well idk tho.

-A person with a scorpio sun and a Capricorn moon will have a special place in my heart. Like with their sun in my fourth house and their moon in my sixth house. Idk I just really enjoy their presence and I want all the attention from them. I will get upset if I have to talk in a group with them because why should anybody else get the attention that I deserve. It’s such a childish thing so I try my best to avoid these situations but it just happens a lot.

Alright that’s it for now. Hope you guys enjoyed this random ass post

Libra Venus

-Some of the prettiest people in a relationship idk how to explain it. They (like an Aries Venus) will be there for you like it's just you and them. You are their bestie pretty much. -Libra is all about balance right? I find it funny because most libra venues I have met (sometimes just libra placements as a whole but it varies) will match the energy in communication but especially through text or any kind of communication that isn't face to face or a call. Like I know two libra Venuses and they have that dynamic of "if I text you and you reply after two hours...I'm going to text you back in two hours.". It is kinda petty imo but I understand the logic behind it. I find it petty but also I respect it because honestly in some situations you gotta remind people that your time and words are precious and that they shouldn't be wasting it ya know?

Unlike my Aries ass (Aries sun, mercury, and Venus) who will double text. I don't care if it took you two hours to reply I will reply when I see it to remind you that I act the way I act because I want to. Cause sometimes people will try to play mind games or whatever with me and then get confused when I don't act the way they thought I would (sometimes people do shit just to get a reaction out of me so I've had to deal with this shit a lot lol). If it takes you two hours to reply to my text, I'll reply quickly then if I remember something else I wanted to say I'll double or even triple text. I'll say something and if you choose to not reply like at all that tells me something about you and how you view me. Or even say you give a reason for why you took so long to text back (imma keep a mental note of it tho) that also tells me something about you and how you view me.

-I bring this up cause talking is person is a completely different thing for me and libra Venus. Like if we are cool with each other I have no issue with talking a lot in person, but sometimes...people got a placement like libra Venus but their mercury sign is in a sign like sag or Virgo. Then it is kinda difficult to talk to them a lot of the time, and I don't know why but something about them makes my brain stop working. Like I swear it isn't me consciously ignoring you like I deadass don't know what to say and my mouth is not moving or making any sense. Yet libra Venuses seem to never have an issue with this shit bro. Like unless I'm the one they are talking to then it would be a mutual thing ya know? It's funny cause most times communication is rough for me but it's for so many reasons and I'll talk about that another time. Like when I post about Aries mercury or something like that.

-Question of the post (I guess lol idk I kinda wanna start doing this out of curiosity): Do you think libra Venus would act differently based on someone's mercury sign in their chart? Like a person with a libra Venus and a sag mercury would express their libra Venus differently than someone with a Leo or Scorpio mercury.

Just a small roast of some placements

If a person has Leo and Aries placements then that Virgo Venus means meh imo. Idk I’ve met so many with that and they don’t act like people with Virgo Venus that I’m used to. The impulsive and dumb manner of us fire signs are a moment. I can roast these motherfuckers cause I got all three fire signs in my chart. Quite literally a fire dominant with a Virgo moon. That Virgo moon is fucked but she is trying her hardest. I think if I didn’t have my Saturn in my tenth house I probably would have a shitter work ethic than I do now. I have no proof but ehh fuck it.

Also cancer placements don’t pack the punch I thought they would have. Scorpios aren’t mysterious they are just dumbasses who know how to keep their mouth shut. Yeah I said it! Plus Pisces I got nothing for you sorry. I got Pisces in my eighth house so you guys are confusing to me. I can’t roast without proper interaction. Like you guys are delusional but so are us Neptune dominants.

All the fixed signs have an odd stubbornness which is to be expected from them. And yet it surprises me how much it’s there. Mutable signs have the fun parts of going with the flow and all the lovely vibes of not properly dealing with their emotions especially mutable moons. I don’t blame us for wanting to try new shit but dealing with our emotions in a “healthy” manner is not one of the ways I’m going to be trying. I have to deal with my trauma first before I even try to grasp the idea of crying in front of people unless I intensely trust them. Don’t even get me started on the idea of comfort while going through a mental breakdown. I try to take care of my shit before I get to that point because it’s either that or having a mental break and being extremely exhausted but still having shit to do. Like bruh how can I get better if I have to depend on others emotionally? The Virgo moon is busting out of me rn. Like I know it sounds dumb asf but I feel like ranting and roasting at the same time. This is how dumb we sound but it’s just the brain functioning like it has to.

To sum it all up emotionally we can deal with it later cause other people need a good/easy time. Sag moons do it by staying positive and fun and I love them for it. They just gotta learn that crying your eyes out can be fun. Just make it a game you fools! Geminis have a similar vibe but idk how to describe them. I think they are more likely to have a decent upbringing compared to sag moons. Idk most sag moons I’ve met have some of the worst upbringings oddly similar to cap moons. The key difference is how they cope with those emotions. Cap moons can be workaholics whereas sag moons probably can but not really ya know?

-I am wondering how people can say moon square moon in synastry shows short term. I can grasp it to a certain degree but general this aspect can stay together. It just seems that the common theme is that they have something shared like a child or a pet. Maybe even a business but ehh. For instance my own parents have squared moons and stayed together for years before their divorce. They argued a lot sure but in the end, shit moved on. Traumatizing a little bit but overall could have been worse for sure imo. Oh and they were together for 20ish years but married for 18 of them I think.

That’s it for now

solar return guide

㋡ hiiiii everyone i am back with some more solar return content ! in this guide, i will dive more into everything i’ve learned about solar return ♡

disclaimer. not a professional astrologer, just passionate about astrology <3 i’m still learning but i want to share what i know with yall (*´∇｀*) + these are not my photos and gifs

➤ i highly recommend you check out my “introduction to solar return” post before reading this if you haven’t ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

what is a solar return chart ?

a solar return chart can give you insights on the general themes & events that might happen in the year ahead

it’s only valid for a year when the sun returns to the exact degree of your natal sun until it goes another round and returns there once again the next year (in which you’ll have to generate another chart)

some things to keep in mind #

since the planets’ movements through the signs are limited (except for mars) & outer planets move sooo slow, house placements are seen more important as they bring more significant differences each year

remember !! planets are energies, signs are qualities, and house are areas

planets show what kinds of energy

signs that the planets fall in show how those energies are expressed

houses where they’re at show which areas of life those energies are applied to

you can already feel your SR year during three months prior to your SR birthday. for some it might be a bit later, but generally what happens near the start of your SR year can predict the overall theme of that year

ascendant

your approach to life, first/immediate reaction to situations and people, suggests the main theme of the year, health issues, problems and matters throughout the year, the part of your personality that will rise to the surface

your ascendant will be the first energy/change that you’d feel when entering a new SR year. SR and natal planets in 1H and/or conjunct with SR ascendant will influence this as well

the natal houses that the SR ascendant falls into will show some issues from the area that will be highlighted, as well as the types of people that would be prominent in your year

ex. 3H siblings, 6H coworkers, 7H relationships & business partners

it’s important to note the SR chart ruler, aka ruler of the ascendant.

aries & scorpio ruled by mars

taurus & libra by venus

gemini & virgo by mercury

cancer by moon; leo by sun

sagittarius & pisces by jupiter

capricorn & aquarius by saturn

those are traditional rulers. for modern rulers, the only changes are scorpio by pluto, aquarius by uranus, pisces by neptune, and the rest are the same. again a preference thing, see what relates to you more

༺☆༻

RETROGRADE PLANETS. planets that are more internally focused, need review & reflection, need to pay attention to

mercury rx – pay attention and review how you communicate and learn, process information gathered, how you transport (by car, train, etc)

venus rx – review how you love, your values, self-worth, how you indulge in pleasure

other planets take longer to go in retrogradation, so take notice when it changes direction in your SR chart (direct to retrograde/retrograde to direct)

༺☆༻

timing

the sun stays in a sign for approximately a month. check the transitioning sun to see which house and sign its in, as well as the planets it conjuncts, to see when an event may occur

for example,

this (non-existent) person has their solar return birthday start when the sun transits into libra, making late september & early october the first month of their SR year

let’s say they SR saturn is in scorpio, which means they will encounter a karmic experience around the next month when sun transits into scorpio, especially when it conjuncts SR saturn

and it would be in regards to the area of life determined by the house that SR saturn is in. so 7H SR saturn = karmic lesson in relationship or business partnerships, 11H SR saturn = lesson in friend groups or social network

tips and resources

SOME TIPS THAT NOBODY ASKED FOR !!

reading a solar return chart is just similar to interpreting a natal chart. the more you learn and know about general astrology the easier it is to read a solar return chart

instead of changing the settings to generate a solar return chart everytime, create a natal chart using your solar return info so you can compare them to the transits and also make a synastry chart between your natal and SR charts (to see aspects easier)

look into past solar return charts to see in which way does the planets personally affect you

RESOURCES BECAUSE THEY SCARCE ASF !!

Astro observations

Sister signs are the funniest to look at sometimes, because much like sisters there will be the similarites. For instance, Leo and Aquarius are both cocky asf but you know what the difference is between them? Idk if it's just the leos I've met or what but they will say they don't care what others think of them and yet when you say something about them all of the sudden they in their feelings. I can say this as a leo rising too cause bitch, no puedo mentir....if you talk about my looks I might feel some kind of way lowkey. Mostly because it is one of those things that I take seriously about myself so it feels really odd when someone who (in my opinon) doesn't look as good as me and disses me on the way I look...I'm going to be acting (with a lack of better words) like a bitch. I think this is why I get along with libra placements so well because I swear if a libra calls you ugly, you know they can say that shit with no worry of pushback. Like have you see libra placements...motherfuckers rule Venus for a reason (taurus are also pretty but it is definitely different if you know what I mean, I jsut wanted to point that out since Taurus also rule Venus and I didn't want any confusion). Moving on what I wanted to point out is that Aquarius (at least from the ones I've met) honestly don't seem to care. Like I think depending on the placements of the person it could change some stuff up but overall most Aquarius I have met in certain things say they don't care and they won't. Like if you say shit about something they don't care about...they simply won't really react as opposed to thier sister sign leos (fire signs can't help it, it is me I am the fire sign).

Literally Leos it's okay to care about shit...like own up to it. It's better than contradicting yourself. And yes ranting a whole bunch about something does count as caring about it. I'm sorry to break the news to you (i know breaking news people care about things). I do wanna repeat that this is based off my own personal experience as a leo rising with my sun in aries (17 degree) and my venus in the fifth degree (if you don't know those are leo degrees), so I am calling myself out a bit when I wrote this.

Moving on, I might write more about the sister signs in another post

Is it just me or are a lot of Pisces suns I've met happen to be left handed? Like I assume being left handed and a Pisces is one of the biggest coincidences I have experienced in my life. It's even funnier cause I remember meeting a person who was ambidextrous and they had a Gemini sun, libra moon, and a Pisces mars. I asked them if they were left handed and just had to learn how to write with their right hand (apparently left handed is connected to Satan or something like that) , but actually they just decided to write with their left hand as well because it felt more balanced to them. I find it funny because of the whole thing of doubles in these three signs. Gemini= Twins, Libra= Scales, and Pisces = two fish.

Alright final thing, mercury in the fifth house in synastry is definitely a moment to experience. It is one of my favorite house overlays in synastry from usually being one of the most fun conversations I have had with someone with this overlay. Generally speaking air house overlays with mercury is great but something about the fifth house really goes for me. I want to assume it's because my fifth house is in sag and I already have a ninth house stellium natally plus a sag mars. Plus my Aries mercury is helpful in this as well but ehh.

Anyways I would love to hear you guy's thoughts, or even any suggestions on what I should talk about next.
