I hate to ask, but can anyone experienced read my chart.

I am really bad at astrology, I'm better at intution. I really feel like I need some sort of guidance right now and I think a real reading of my chart would help.

1. did you know

You can read a chart intuitively? That's how I do it. I get a little of it from the angles and aspects but I really am not good at the angles and degrees stuff.

I do the same with handwriting. Although I studied graphology for a few years, I still get it from intuition.

I'm sure you'll get some insightful comments from the resident astrologers here but I thought I'd pass that along to you.

2. Yeah I've given that a shot a few times.

More than a few. I know some things. But I just wanted to hear a comment or two. Nothing too detailed just some thoughts.

3. hold on dear

I'll take a deeper look very soon but you did recently last early August have a Saturn transit to your Mars. The metaphor I often use for that is that it is as though you have to go carve Mt.Rushmore and all you are equipped with is a plastic butter knife.

It's a bit daunting.

But the higher octave poses the question: how am I effectively using my energy and how am I pissing it away???

It's ultimately supposed to make you redefine your motivation so you can direct it more effectively.

This is just the immediate issue that jumped out at me.

Also Neptune is opposing your Venus. That can make a person somewhat disoriented but inspire one as well.

I'll post more when I get over the current argument I'm having with my printer. I want to look at your progressions. Hang in there.

4. Oh Stella thank you!!!

And what you said about last August was right on the money. Major upheavals in my life started then...

5. Here's something...

Right now transiting Neptune is exactly squaring your natal Neptune/nodal axis and, as Stellanoir said, opposing your Venus. Transiting Uranus is moving toward opposition with natal Uranus. You are in the midst of what is called the "middle age" transits (the last one is Saturn opposite Saturn which will happen in a couple of years). These transits are associated with what is generally called "mid-life crisis". While they may not necessarily bring crisis, people usually undergo re-evaluation and reorientation in life at this time.

Additionally, transiting Pluto (your chart ruler) is beginning to square natal Saturn. Life may present unexpected challenges at this time.

Please note I have mentioned just transits, and not all of those (no time, sorry)

6. thanks for the backup sofedup

still arguing with my printer. arghhhhhhh

[stellanoir]

7. okay still arguing with my printer but what the heck. . .

Sorry for the extreme delay.

What sofedup said about mid life crisis is absolutely true and it truly only manifests in terms of crisis in the lives of those who have an extreme disparity between their inner and outer realities. It is a significant reorientation though. Especially for those born with Uranus/Pluto conjunction opposing the Saturn/Chiron.

In this regard one must be mindful of all the breakthrough energies that were occurring around your year of birth. Breakthroughs in terms of civil rights, women's rights, the beginning of the peace & hippie & environmental movements, the sexual revolution, the importation of Eastern mysticism into Western Culture all are reflective of the transformational power and intensity of those conjunctions.

In terms of other transits and progressions . . .

Six to eight months ago your progressed Moon conjoined both your progressed Jupiter and your natal Mars. I wonder if you made any significant decisions around then, over reacted to something, or had a largely significant encounter. Ideally this sort of manifests as a major motivational recharge (or reboot.) The problem is that transiting Mars was probably either wobbily, stationary, or retrograde at the time. So it may have been a bit awkward.

Mars transited, retrograded over, and then transited again over your North Node in Taurus between last September and this past January so that may have felt like your life path had temporarily morphed into "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride." Kidding sorta, but you would have ended up with a clearer sense of your direction, life path, and a deeper sense of appropriateness.

Over the last year or so your progressed Mars conjoined your natal Mercury. That could have lent to tremendous bird's eye clarity and sort of an "aha" moment and one can often purge negative mental limitations under that influence as well.

In 7 months the progressed Moon will conjoin your Midheaven which may signify a career opportunity depending entirely on your field of work. It can also signify help from a female having to to with work and even greater emotional clarity.

Transiting Uranus would have hit your natal Moon in late February, early March , late September, early October, and most of December '04. Your crown chakra may have felt like a satellite dish at that time. Intuitive breakthroughs are common under this influence. You may have learned a great deal about yourself and released some emotional baggage as well. Reflection on your emotional revelations, and well being during that period of time will be helpful for your lasting happiness.

Jupiter transited your Ascendant last Christmas week and again over the past week and will do so again in late August. From that point forward expand your horizons as "the world (will be) your oyster." It'll also conjoin your Neptune and South Lunar Node shortly thereafter. This can be both profoundly inspirational and cleanse some old wounds, disppointments, and disillusionments. This expansive period will last until early next year. Then it transits to your second house for an approximate two year period of financial opportunities. Reinforcement of your self worth can potentially ensue.

In two to three years your progressed Mars will move from Leo to Virgo and you will more than likely be seeking greater meaning in all endeavors. More on that later.

I hope this has had some resonance for you. Let me know if you require further details.

A chart is as vast as a life so to think one can do it justice in several paragraphs is kind of looney toons. Gave it a shot anyhow.

best and sorry again for the delay,

8. Stella thank you

That was completely right on!


Last Dec my entire life turned upside down... I'm still trying to figure it all out. That is exactly why I asked.


I wanted to know when all this craziness would settle down.
