New place, new thoughts.

I for one think that everyman should embrace and accept his feminine side. Perhaps you would like to spend time looking into your lunar returns for this new year and seeing and contemplating how each month brings you new blessings and opportunities. I think it is very valid and worthwhile work, this lunar nudge you are feeling.
I espically think it would shed a different light on your aversion to your Sag. Sun sign. Go for it. It certainly cant hurt. All self exploration and examination is good.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Thu Jan 03, 2019 9:38 pm

I don't necessarily associate it with feminine energy but rather a smoother more receptive energy, however i will say it is required for self balancing.
I don't know if it is a push toward Sagittarius energy (as its very solar) however it is a reflection on my capricorn energy.

I've been much more gypsy esc since just before new year, baggy yoga and harem pants getting high more being more mellow and more wild.

I could use some advice and I want to take astrological note of this as well. It is a reoccurring theme where people are surprised at my willingness to be forward some love it some hate it (this is becoming one of the first things people say or notice about me).

Of course Mars in Capricorn keeps stuff underpass but generally the Sun/Jupiter Venus and Pluto undertones make me rather open (and Mars Mercury).

Tue Feb 05, 2019 8:45 pm

People are surprised you're forward?
Can you be more specific? What kind of people, under what circumstances. Do these people think you should be shy or something?

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Tue Feb 05, 2019 10:06 pm

Mostly romantic interests, but also new people in general. They dont think I should he shy, Its more like people feel like they are talking to an old friend the first time I communicate with them, which for some I guess is weird.

I would call Moon background. It's exactly in the center of the 8th house (mid-quadrant) and I count this as part or the background zone.

Neptune is middleground, 20° below Ascendant.

Other background planets are Venus (exactly in the middle of the 11th house, mid-quadrant); and Pluto, precisely in the degree of the cadent 12th cusp, which makes it your most background planet.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Sun Feb 17, 2019 10:54 am

Thanks Jim. Pluto being my most background planet is ironic as it is one of my strongest (,however it does aspect a luminary and my sun signs angular ruler, in addition to the Novien Pluto being on nat. angular Jupiter)

As for Venus it makes sense that it is in background as it's not in the foreground of my personality, for me I'd say it's like a slow low burning flame that never wavers. Venus does have some luminary pull over the moon and is touched by Novien sun, I do feel it's a rather personal intimate planet that I guard showing to others, however its still something I feel strongly.

As for the Moon I don't understand this planet on a personal level at all, background, anti-thesis to my Mars sign and anti-thesis to the Sun and the sign placement the moon is in. That being said I'm not unemotional but rather emotionally volatile.

Post by **Jim Eshelman** » Sun Feb 17, 2019 11:40 am

Your Pluto is a loud active factor in your nature regardless of angularity because of the Moon-Pluto aspect which, btw, is also consistent with emotional volatility.

By itself, a background Moon would mean that the need to adapt and mold yourself to your environment and the people in it (to chameleon-like shift and reshape yourself) would be one of your weakest needs. Moon represents our plastic adaptation to our physical, social, and psychological environments.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Tue Feb 19, 2019 10:46 am

Thanks for further clarification Jim. It terms of plasticity on an emotional level I do take shape of the emotions in my environment, to the point that sometimes I do know if the feelings in feeling are mine or not.

Using Willemstad (but it's all about the same), it's not a great place for you. The most angular planet is Neptune on EP. It has an exact mundane square to a widely angular Saturn. I would read that as primarily Neptune and secondarily Saturn-Neptune.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Wed Mar 20, 2019 10:59 pm

Thanks for the reading on that Jim. I was looking ahead in the next few weeks and I saw an interesting transiting aspect will be occurring around April first in my chart. Transit Moon will be approaching natal Mars, and Tranist Mars will be aspecting Novien Sun. Intrested in seeing if anything come from this on that day and excited for the incoming month.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 8:27 am

Just a thought. I realized last night that sex was a very impressive part of my life, in fact more so that even religion and many other things in into. My Venus sign description is dead on accurate (with venus Mars/Uranus as well as possibly solar aspects). It makes sense for Venus to be active do to the energy attached to it. Therefore the reason why I associate with Venus-Scorpio (Mars/Uranus, Sun) isnt because I am a Scorpio but because I use that energy the most regularly. Even doing astrology is an aesthetic thing and therefore I see it through the Venus lense.

Remember that your very close Venus-Mars square is more or less the same symbolism - and a much stronger factor - than Venus in Scorpio. After your Moon-Pluto square (1°01'), Venus square Mars (1°28') is your closest dynamic ("hard") aspect.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 8:47 am

Yes Haha I remember it. I have a whole list of people that I've slept with and started recording phallus issues/injuries (which stem from before I was even sexually active). Pluto is a corporal underlying tone that I have, Mars(/Uranus)-Venus seems to be at the forefront of my personality, which is perhaps too why some people think I'm a Scorpio when they meet me (I've found out to that I am just as action hungry and a risk taker as a Mars/luminary or Scorpio luminary as well).

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 9:04 pm

Was looking at Uranuian astrology again (mostly because of your mention of it in your node post). I found only one thing worth watching with one of their theoretical planets they call "Zuse" its square my sun in a partile and therefore at my zenith due to my Suns placement. Dont know if that means anything of course.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 10:07 pm

Hmm, not the words I would use to describe myself. I read that they tie it to transformation and creativity as well which I could relate to. I think too that I lack the ability to recognized Solar/jovial/zuse energy at least in myself.

Poseidon squares Neptune in my chart.
Novien sun sits in the middle of Venus and Cupido (which are 8 degrees apart).

Mostly what I'm finding is the planets and theoretical planets are somewhat counterparts or different names for the same energy. What bothers me the most is that from what I see they use only myth to back up the theoretical planets (and while the irony of them matching energy from actual planets shows up in my chart, I'd call it little more than a coincidence). Not saying that the form they use is invalid, just not exactly seeing validation.

Post by **Jim Eshelman** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 10:11 pm

Neptune-Poseidon lasted for years. 8 degrees is too wide. I quoted the founder of Uranian astrology in my summary (I keep Witte's RULES next to my computer.)

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 10:22 pm

I'm not evening getting at anything except that some of this stuff seems very immeasurable.
Novien sun stirs in the middle if 2 planets that from what I understand are basically Venus is what I was saying about that portion.

I'm not trying to argue with you Jim lol.

On a side note I also havent found angular planets to be as strong as they are in my chart as they come in my personality (offline). Even running through all the little things(like zeus, and ceres) I'm finding my aspects are much more prevalent in my everyday life. Zues could play a role possibly because of that solar aspect and being on zenith, however between Mars-Venus (Uranus) angular sun and Pluto Mars moon that planets given traits are covered.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Thu Mar 28, 2019 3:09 pm

Question on Novien planets aspecting natal planets. Would 45 degree aspects be at all valid? I'm thinking that it would be so..

I asked because of Nov Mars semi square natal sun. The orb may be to wide however borne planets are very energy oriented [1.16 orb].

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Sat Mar 30, 2019 11:54 am

Another on midpoints. What is the potency of a midpoint in a luminary? I have Venus/Uranus=Sun. I don't recall if I asked this before ir where the conversation is if I did..

Post by **Jim Eshelman** » Sat Mar 30, 2019 12:16 pm

It's roughly the same as having a Venus-Uranus aspect. (More exactly, it's a Venus-Uranus principle joined to your Sun). It's most specifically the fusing of the Venus-Uranus principle (freedom in love, emotional renewal, birth) to your identity.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Sat Mar 30, 2019 12:43 pm

Thanks Jim. I was wondering if anything else colored my solar energy more potently or at all?

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Sat Mar 30, 2019 5:10 pm

Also found an interesting aspect to midpoint Mars/Sun

Mars/Sun, 90° from Jupiter, 45° from Pluto, 135° from Moon.

Not sure of how valid this is or what it does if anything.

Danica · Post by **Danica** » Sat Mar 30, 2019 6:34 pm

Each aspect represents a direct connection (inter-relatedness), in your psyche, of the needs & corresponding traits/tendencies represented by the planets involved.
When you look at a planetary cluster, or group (structure, including several, and all inter-connected, aspects between two planets), prioritize them by orb and by Luminary involvement, to see the core picture of it; and reflect on how it relates to the: Luminary signs, as well as the aspects of the Sun & Moon, and Angularity, to see its 'place' in the whole of the chart.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Tue Apr 02, 2019 11:19 pm

Thanks, Danica. The only big one I spot is Uranus/Venus on my Sun. Possibly Sun/Pluto-Mercury. Are direct midpoints the only valid ones, and is a midpoint between 2 angles valid?

I had a difficult day on April first, at 6:26 PM hyde park, NY I failed a really important cooking practical for the second time. Coukd someone check my angles for my 7:28 and 7 am birth charts? [I don't quite know what to look for on this one.]

Chambersburg PA 12/27/1999 is the data that I'm sure is on file somewhere. .

Notes from friends on energy.

Today my friends decided to tell me how my energy cam across.

One of them says that I was this ball of contented concentrated energy that slips out every once and a while.

The ithe describes me as aggressive but defusing. Like an atomic bomb going off but the bomb squad is there trying to defuse it.

Both these friends (one a Aries Sun/Mars, Scorpio Moon that's conj. Angular Pluto) the other (a capricorn sun moon + 2 outers, angular Pluto and Mars in Uranus) I feel like have more of a reputation for being waring and aggressive. Why would I come across more this way than them?

Veronica · Post by **Veronica** » Wed Apr 17, 2019 5:22 am

It may be
That its not that you come across " more" like this to them then anyone else.
But that they have the gumption to tell you as honestly as they can how you come across.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Mon Apr 22, 2019 12:38 pm

Intresting view point. I also realize being in curacao that I'm less aggressive towards new people because I don't want to let them in. My pot smoking hip slightly sadistic likely Sagittarius chef thinks I hop rail roads and stuff like that. Its eaiser for me to be wild down here I'm very much myself.

Noticed something about myself today. I don't keep people especially males who are uncomfortable talking about sex in my life. In fact I think I'd rather die than be able to orgasim. Funny how priorities work.

Also lately I've been walking a very Pluto line but underneath I'm starting to feel Mars boil..

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Sun May 05, 2019 11:03 pm

This place is very Saturn for me. I haven't felt so connected to the planet more than now.

It's like a giant flash back not that I'm afraid of that but I've tried so hard to hide this dark starun energy that's promoted by my Moon and by Capricorn Mars.

Feels like I'm malting. What happens to me here on this island I expect to stick hopefully. Also hoping to stay Saturn through life and have it energies emergie in me in a fully Qabbalistic form...

Requestioning angularity in my chart once again. The more physical implications of having a mercury more angular are showing up. Even at work every one first notices how jittery and spastic I am.

Random angle test last night probably 3am ish I was by the water here on curacao and one of my coworkers bet me 20 bucks to strip down into my underwear and go out into the sea. I am still going to collect the 20 but I really did it because why the hell not.

Looking at the chart near 7:30 birth time on the day that I took that wonderful ocean dare Mars was near my dec. angle.

I'm noticing I'm rather sensitive towards Mars's transits. Could it be due to its slight dignityor its exaltation in my natal chart?

Post by **Jim Eshelman** » Tue May 28, 2019 1:52 pm

Everybody is sensitive to Mars transits. That's basic to what Mars does, hit hard, trigger events, etc.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Wed Jun 26, 2019 9:29 pm

Thanks Jim.

Off topic now. I am curious about something, I read a post about Pisces and the devil. In it it talked about boxers (a statistical high in Pisces, Gemini, and Capricon) the degree in which most Capricorn boxers Suns were right around the exaltion of Mars.

Although I rarely act on it there is a deep rooted violence in my psychi. Normally people call me a spaz in the kitchen or call me dominant in the bed room, but I've realized it all comes from the same place. At the end of the day many times I just want to smash the hell of of something (be it a person or a coconut I'm cracking). Is this possibly linked to Mars being at its peak?

Post by **Jim Eshelman** » Mon Sep 16, 2019 11:33 pm

Maybe indeed.

In general, I've always sensed a great anger in you. While there are things that could feed or reinforce it (like Saturn and Pluto aspecting your Moon so closely), I think the best expression is probably Mars in late Capricorn exactly square Venus. (There is enormous emotional force in that: Break something, {bonk} something, kill something... in one sense, it's all the same.)

Do you have Mars in Capricorn? It's rather Priapian.

Soft Alpaca · Post by **Soft Alpaca** » Tue Sep 17, 2019 12:00 am

BIG DICK ENERGY lmfao!

As for the break, kill, {bonk} something. It's a blessing and a curse. I'm glad to have outlets because lets just say I wouldn't want to be the person on the other side of me.

I think too that it is all those things Saturn-Pluto on my Moon, Venus-Mars etc. That make Mars in Capricorn more expressive (perhaps why the sign stands out to me, versus my luminaries, where the sun is a little more gentle and the Moon,is well basically as the kids say "what are those").

Besides this the realization of Uranus as a factor where would your rank planetary energys in my chart now?

Jovial, Uranus, and Pluto being the biggest three?

These are wild times. I sat down today in a car traveling to another state to go get my aunt and my cousin because my cousins dad molested her.

Within the last 3 weeks I've lost an extended family member to the virus. I've lost a young dog to a sudden Pancras rupture from a unknown cancerous tumor. I've had a friend go from 70k a year to homeless overnight and I've had another friend try to take his life. Another uncle relapsed on drinking and was caught cheating on my aunt.

Over the last few months i've been all over the country (Ohio, missuori, kansas, texas, Okie, colorodo, new Mexico, Pennsylvania, Virgina) in a few weeks I'm headed to California.
I myself have seemingly danced across the nation often high or headed towards chaos but all seemingly around the virus. It makes me ponder many things about existence.
