spiritworld-rising asked: If you have the time and are willing to do it, I would love a personal reading! Here is my info: I was born on December 4, 1991 in Ridgewood, New Jersey at 8:28 a.m.

You’re a Sagittarius with Saggittarius rising and a moon in Scorpio.

Your double Sagittarius nature tells me that you’re very versatile, philosophical, and possibly even blunt.

You are a Sagittarius, and your rising sign (the sign that is the window through which all of our other signs pass, coloring our behavior) is also in Sagittarius, your Sag behaviors are enhanced. You may know other Sagittariuses who share qualities of your personality, but you seem to have more of the described behaviors and attitudes.

You already know the drill about being a Sag; sometimes you’re too blunt, you’re more prone to picking up causes and ideologies (not frivolous ideologies, but the ones that truly resonate with you, of course), and you’re a natural explorer. (The only thing I can tell you here is to remember that you are doubly Sagittarius, and this is an important thing to remember). 

What I feel I should bring to your attention is your moon in Scorpio. Your moon in Scorpio will, inevitably, play with your Sagittarian energies.

The moon is your inner, emotional self. In Scorpio it will make you highly empathetic to others’ emotional needs. It gives you the gift of empathy, and reminds you to see others as equals rather than as subjects or as opponents (as it would in the signs of Leo and Aries, respectively).

Your moon in Scorpio lends you emotional depth, something that many Sagittarians lack. Use it to follow your ambitions farther than any ordinary Sagittarius could. Recognize your internal conflicts over other ignoring other individuals’ inner turmoil (something that may make you impatient) and embracing others’ graces (reminding you that they, like yourself, are emotional entities that are vastly complicated and -all but- impossible to understand).

missmelanieelizabeth asked: I've always wanted to know the Disney Astrology, heheh. Who would be the Aquarius(s). I always figured Pocohauntus for sure with her views coming out of the tribe and putting reason before emotion and the need to be free. Who would you say was?

Pocahontas is the perfect example of an Aquarius. Despite her differences from the settlers and colonists, she injected herself into the white man’s culture and forced them to open their eyes to new ideas.

Aquarius teaches us to destroy old ideas and notions and to rebuild our culture from the rubble. It is not interested in position or status. It cares only about improving the mindset of the people.

Other examples would be Kida from Atlantis, Rafiki from the Lion King, and Eve from Wall-E. Rationality championing arbitrary morality.

Anonymous asked: do you ever use lilith in your charts?

For my followers who don’t know, Lilith is what I call a hypothetical point - in an astrological chart, it does not represent an actual point. Rather, it represents the shadow of the moon, the apogee of the moon itself.

The apogee of a planet in astrology is the farthest point from a planet in orbit within that particular orbit - the moon’s apogee represents the farthest point from the moon’s position within the moon’s orbit that it could theoretically be from that point. It is the point of no return for the moon’s position, and like the position of the moon itself, it changes respectively for all of our natal charts.

Given that it is (in my own terms) a “hypothetical” it is not something I use yet. Lillith is not something that very widely written about. As such, there isn’t much by way of reference or source material to refer to on the subject. Still wrestling with the concept of nodes, I’m, admittedly, afraid to delve that far.

For those interested in the subject, Lilith is indicative of our sacrifices; in a sign, Lilith can tell us the way we let go of things, the way we relinquish power, or, better yet, seize power to relinquish the hold that certain matters of our lives hold over us. Lilith is about killing the old in order to handle the new.

Speculatively speaking (with what little I know about it), I would compare it to Scorpio - Scorpio is a sign that encourages us to discuss how we “die” in order to let other parts of ourselves “live”.

As I said, this is not something I delve into myself, but I encourage all of you to look into it yourselves - and in doing so, I invite you to ask me for assistance. While I don’t know much about it, I, having experience in the field of astrology, believe that I could offer help to someone who feels unsure.

1181 is the asteroid number for Lilith (if you natal chart program has an “add asteroids” function, this is the number you would use to calculate it).

a year of silence. for those who don’t remember me, I’m musks, musks, an astrology blogger. send me asks with personal astrological inquiries and i will answer them

Anonymous asked: what sign do you think is generally best suited for a virgo sun sign? x

Taurus and Capricorn are the easy answer - Pisces is more of a soulmate type. 

Cancer and Scorpio are impressive. 

Leo is a challenge and will be deeply rewarding or immensely damaging. 

Aquarius will attract you but good luck building a relationship. 

Libra and Aries are just a struggle and for different reasons. Their strong points are their heated chemistry with you. 

Gemini and Sagittarius are going to frustrate you to no end, but you will understand them more than you’d think. A difficult, yet strong bond.

Anonymous asked: do you think that a leo and an aries are (generally) compatible romantically?

I think they’re two of the most easily compatible signs of the zodiac - of course, in my opinion, every combination of signs works to a certain degree, and the more friction two signs share, the more interesting their dynamic, the more each party benefits from understanding the other. 

With Leo and Aries, we have two fire signs, and signs of the same element are said to get along more harmoniously. So as far as harmony goes, Leo and Aries are the two signs that can give each other the challenge that each feels they deserve. Both signs are ambitious and want to give their love to someone who is equally full of life.

Problems will arise when Aries and Leo begin to compete as these signs so frequently clash. Leo does not want to lose arguments and neither does Aries, so they will naturally have problems on that avenue. 

What’s nice is that these signs can generally avoid conflict because they are so in sync. Aries is fast enough to keep Leo dazzled, Leo is grand enough to keep Aries interested. The relationship will be fueled by mutual, self sufficient energies. They will love each other very deeply - examine the mythology of the lion and the lamb. 

Just make sure that one of you is willing to be the bigger person - and remind the Aries party that PRETENDING to lose in order to save Leo’s pride makes him the bigger person and, ultimately, the true winner.

Regarding your question, my calculations are telling me that your moon sign is Pisces. Moon sign generators sometimes don’t account for daylight savings times, and that could have a huge impact on the entire chart.

So you’re an aries with Aquarius rising, which tells me that you’re something of a firestarter. You’re not afraid of speaking out and you like to speak out especially whenever you feel as though some sort of injustice or untruth is being perpetrated against you or the ones you love, or even the ideals you stand for. Aquarius rising is going to tell you to say what you like, wear what you prefer, and take shit from no one.

Your chart has a semi rare aspect in it that we like to call the Stellium - the stellium refers to the phenomenon in a given astrological chart wherein three or more planets are conjunct (in the same degree, sign or house). A stellium says that you’ve got several pieces of your psyche geared towards the same sign, the same idea or vibration. Mercury, Venus, and the Sun are all snuggled right up to each other in about fourteen degrees aries, so you’re a very, very Aries personality. You’re ambitious, tall minded, and naturally gifted at handling conflict. 

With the stellium, however, there is often a feeling of an overload. For example, my chart has a Virgo stellium, and while that blesses me with Virgoan insight, an analytical  mind, it also plagues me with over-worrying, fussiness, and a tendency to doubt myself. In your case I’d say you probably suffer from over-exertion, from being too combative, from being very challenging. But by the same token, you’re especially innocent, forgiving, and fiery. Watch out for the Aries pitfall of being taken advantage of. Something tells me that you rarely look at everything before acting. 

Mercury and Venus are fine in Aries - you’re the type of person who voices her choices, who says what she’s feeling, and who knows what she’s talking about. Mercury here is all about quick decisions and capability of mind. You’re not stupid and you’re good at debating - though not so good at hearing others’ opinions, which, by the same token, reflects on you as being a poor debater. It depends on how you look at it - is it more important to win, or more important to reach an amicable compromise? 

I’m sure Aquarius rising will help you understand what I’m talking about - again, your heavy Uranus influence means that you’re good at handling bizarre concepts and thinking outside of the box. 

Venus in Aries tells me that you don’t wait for love, you seize it. You hate to fuck around with deceptiveness or underhanded dishonesty. If you like someone, you feel free to flirt. You don’t like people to be coy or unclear - you just want to hear what’s being said, process it as quickly as possibly, and move on. 

Moon’s in Pisces so you’re a daydreamer at heart. For all of your self-assuredness, your confidence, there is a little fish inside of you telling you to be careful, to tread carefully and to not make too many waves (harder to swim in, of course). This is where your Aries stellium could make trouble. You need to make time to be at peace, to just let things be quiet and not to fight the flow of nature. 

Heavy air sign influence, in Mars and Jupiter you’ve got Gemini, so while your ambitions are numerous and very different from one another, when you follow them, you will be most fortunate if you celebrate the variety in your mind. Aquarius will guide you down that path. Never stick with your guns indefinitely - always be ready to reexamine a solution, to think of all of the colors of the rainbow before choosing your favorite color. 

So you’re very Aries - very capable and strong-willed, but at the same time you’re flexible. You’ve got a versatile side most people don’t know about. As much potential as you  may have to be a conquerer, you’re going to fight much more success when you trim those Aries horns and open dialogues.
