Hello everyone! I decided to make a short post where I address different misconceptions about astrology or astrological beliefs

Truth be told I believed in the majority of the misconceptions in here, until I eventually expanded my knowledge on Hellenistic astrology and decided to "redeem" myself by making this post in order to help others understand astrology more accurately. I hope you enjoy this post!

♡︎. "THE 8TH HOUSE REPRESENTS SEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS"

A classic misconception that constantly circles around astrology spaces. For the majority of time the 8th house was never associated with sexual encounters. The 8th house represents shared resources, inheritance, taxes, debt, loss and death itself. Notice how it doesn't mention sex anywhere in it's traditional interpretation? This misconception got popularized when the 8th house started to be associated with Scorpio/Pluto (which mind you these two are also not traditionally associated with sexual encounters). If you want to know the house and the planet that genuinely represent sexuality and sexual encounters, then you will need to look at the 5th house and Venus

♡︎. "HOUSES ARE CORRELATED TO SIGNS"

If you don't know what I'm referring to, it's basically the concept that "Aries governs over the 1st house, Taurus governs over the 2nd house etc." This misconception is probably something that a lot of us fell for because modern astrology (aka the system that a good amount of people started from) is mapped by this belief, but once you get into traditional astrology you realize just how invalid this theory is.

A good way for you to detach from this theory is to learn the traditional meaning of each house and perhaps even learn about planetary joys so that you can build a better understanding on how houses work in astrology

♡︎. "UNION (1585) REPRESENTS MARRIAGE / MONY (7782) REPRESENTS MONEY / ETC."

For me personally asteroids no longer pique my interest, but if I do use them then I'm very picky with what asteroids I choose. In fact, I believe that everyone should be picky with the asteroids that they choose and everyone should research an asteroid's name before assiging a meaning to it

Union is constantly seen as an asteroid that represents marriage or soulmate connections because the word "union" itself can be seen in a romantic light, but the reason behind this asteroid's name is not a romantic one. The asteroid was named after the Union Observatory, not after a philosophical idea of love. In my opinion assiging this asteroid to love is quite silly

Another popular example is asteroid Mony. Everyone think that this asteroid is related to Money due the fact that these two terms are similar, but the truth is that this asteroid was named in honour of Monica De Magistris (for context Mony is a common nickname for people that are named Monica). With all due respect, assigning money to this asteroid knowing that its name is supposed to be a tribute is straight up stupid

What I'm trying to say is that people should use asteroids with discernment and research the meaning behind their names first

♡︎. "THE 12TH HOUSE REPRESENTS SPIRITUALITY"

Spoilers: it does not. The 12th house was always considered a dark house that represents isolation, pain, imprisonment, hidden enemies and sorrow. If you want to find out which houses are actually associated with spirituality, then you will need to look at the 9th and 3rd house. A lot of people may argue that through painful and isolated moments you can spiritualy awaken, but truth be told the majority of people do not have the maturity needed for spiritual awakening in harsh life moments, so the idea of the 12th house being spiritual still doesn't hold up much

If this post does well, then I might make a part 2!

Hello everyone! I've decided to make a fun activity on my discord server where I asked different members what their most disliked personal placements are. After that, I've noted down these placements and I created advice based on each one of them. I hope you guys enjoy this post and find my advice enlightening!

♡︎. SATURN 1ST HOUSE

When the planet of sorrow, limitations, karmic lessons and discipline sits on the house that represents your life force, your outer shell and your temperament, self expression becomes a heavy burden. People with this placement often deal with a suppressed personality, tough life lessons, self-image issues, insecurity and lack of confidence.

My advice for people who have Saturn in the 1st house is to build a healthy sense of confidence & self-trust, remain disciplined, have patience with themselves and develop their skills no matter how tough it may be in the beginning. Even if Saturn is a malefic force, if you remain fair and rigorous then you can expect to bloom later in your life

♡︎. SUN SQUARE SATURN

People who have Sun square Saturn in their natal chart have to deal with the fact that their vitality, life force, higher intellect, visibility and success are often blocked and delayed. This placement can create a lack of energy, trouble gaining recognition for one's talents/skills, a lack of hope and vision for one's life, a turbulent/absent dynamic with one's father and perhaps even health issues related to the heart or the overall bodily vitality

If your Sun overcomes your Saturn, then my advice for you is to practice humility without suppressing yourself, to dedicate your energy into projects that are truly worth your time and to seek mentorship whenever you feel lost. If your Saturn overcomes your Sun, then my advice for you is to remain disciplined without becoming critical of yourself, to remain dedicated to your craft even if in the beginning you won't gain recognition and to wait for your time to shine without giving up

♡︎. VENUS IN VIRGO

This is Venus' toughest placement because Venus finds it's Fall in this sign. People with Venus in the sign of Virgo tend to face issues when it comes to their romantic life due to the fact they either attract critical, picky and dissatisfied partners, or they themselves embody these previously enlisted qualities in their relationships. In general these people simply cannot reach full pleasure and satisfaction in anything due to their perfectionist or reserved mentality

My advice for people who have a Virgo Venus is to learn how accept imperfection. These people must understand that they can't be perfect and they can't find a perfect partner because humans are imperfect by nature. Instead of trying to fix their partner's flaws, these people must use their hard-working and analytical skills in order to nurture their bond and communicate with their partner effectively

♡︎. CHIRON IN THE 4TH HOUSE

As everyone knows by now, Chiron is the asteroid that represents the wounded healer archetype. This asteroid in your natal chart represents the deep wound that you'll have no choice but to learn how to heal in yourself and others before you turn bitter. The 4th house on the other hand is the lowest angle of the chart which represents your private environment, home, family, father, ancestral lineage and emotional foundation. People who have Chiron in the 4th house may face a traumatic upbringing, generational trauma, lack of emotional security and a rocky/absent relationship with their father (or their family in general).

My advice for people who have Chiron in the 4th house is to address their unstable emotional world with an expert, to break the generational trauma that their lineage may have gone through and to cut ties with their family/their father if the relationship between them is unfulfilling and incapable of being repaired. As sad as it sounds, people with this placement must learn how to build their own emotional foundations from the ground even if their upbringing wasn't warm

This post is a bit more special than my other astrology observations posts, because in this post I'll add observations based on specific placements from my friend's chart

These are just my observations yadda yadda yadda they may play differently for others blehhh blehhhhhhhhhhhh you get the idea

♡︎. COMBUST MARS IN THE 9TH HOUSE

This placement belongs to one of my friends. Even if she's a dear person to me, when it comes to each other's values we can barely agree. She's not a bad person, but she's very close-minded when it comes to other people's views. She has this "my way or the high way" mindset. I remember how one time when the presidential elections happened in our country we used to debate over which person we'd vote, and she couldn't accept the fact that I'd vote for a different person than her choice. She would then go ahead and constantly send me videos of the person she supported as a way to change my mind

♡︎. MARS IN THE 1ST HOUSE

I've seen this placement in the charts of so many of my friends that are plus-sized or chubby in general, regardless of the sign of this placement. Even if I don't have an explanation on why this placement specifically could give someone a chubbier body, I've decided to add it because it became very common for me to see it. My personal theory is that Mars in the 1st house can be associated with chubbiness granted that Mars rules muscles and in some cases chubby people tend to have more muscle mass, but idk if that's a plausible explanation. If you have this placement then let me know about your personal experience!

♡︎. SUN-MOON CONJUNCTION

This is more of a synastry observations, but might as well add it here. I've constantly noticed that I tend to attract friends who have the same Sun sign as my Moon sign, or friends who have the same Moon sign as my Sun sign. I know that people keep constantly talking about Sun-Moon when it comes to romantic synastry, but I wish that we'd get to talk more about how potent this aspect can be in platonic synastry as well

♡︎. SAGITTARIUS VENUS

This placement belongs to another friend of mine. I've noticed that when she's dating people from our country she's very emotionally detached. It's almost like she doesn't even gaf about the specific guy she's dating and she's mostly talking to him just to pass the time. On the other hand she's very emotionally attached to foreigners. Honestly speaking she can only build a romantic relationship with a person that comes from another country because those are the only guys that truly pique her interest

♡︎. SCORPIO MOON

As others have said here numerous times, and as I've said here numerous times, Scorpio Moons are intense and have a vivid inner world. But, what others don't seem to mention is how hidden this inner world is. One thing that I've noticed about all of my Scorpio Moon friends is that their intensity is not visible to the naked eye. They can even come off as chill and unbothered at first glance based on their rising sign. If you want to know just how deep their heart goes, you'll have to pay attention to their words and their passions in order to see it for yourself.

(Of course, this "hidden" Scorpio Moon effect that I've noticed can be the complete opposite for people who also have a Scorpio Rising)

♡︎. MOON CONJUNCT/TRINE/SEXTILE VENUS

I have yet to see an instance where one person's Moon harmoniously aspecting another person's Venus doesn't create mutual affection and love. If this is a double whammy, then that's literally heavenly. The Moon person will always desire to show their unconditional love towards the Venus person, while the Venus person will always feel like home whenever they are around the Moon person

♡︎. VENUS IN THE 7TH HOUSE

The house person can feel like the Venus person is their ideal type to a T, while the Venus person can feel a huge desire to get together with the house person. Both people can see a strong potential for a romantic relationship between each other. In a synastry chart, this house overlay rarely stays casual or one-sided, as it creates a romantic pull for each partner

♡︎. VENUS CONJUNCT/TRINE/SEXTILE MARS

Venus represents the sweeter and more romantic side of sexual attraction, while Mars represents the more dominant and passionate side of sexual attraction. When one person's Mars harmoniously aspects another person's Venus, the Mars person wants to conquer the Venus person's heart and the Venus person wants to be conquered. This specific entanglement between these two planets in a synastry creates a sexual tension that's hard to ignore

♡︎. VERTEX ASPECTS

The Vertex is believed to be a "fated point" in a natal chart. It basically represents the fated and inevitable moments in our lives. In terms of a synastry chart, when one person's Vertex makes tight aspects to another person's planets or points it is believed that these two people were meant to meet each other and perhaps even meant to be attracted to each other. Obviously the effect of Vertex aspects can vary based on the planet that is being aspected, so what you'd like to look at would be Vertex-Moon or Vertex-Venus aspects

♡︎. 7TH HOUSE RULER HARMONIOUSLY ASPECTING OTHER PLANETS

♡︎. TEST TEST

Hello everyone! I decided to play around with a new aesthetic style for my posts. This one will be a little more simple than my past posts, but me personally I like it's simplicity. What do you guys think? Should I keep this style, or should I go back to my previous style?

For this post we are going to look at asteroid Sirene (1009) in your chart

─ ★ Sirene in the 1st house

In this case, you are the siren. You may often carry within yourself a trait that makes others tempted to pay attention to you. Whether that specific trait is something physical, something that's part of your personality or something else, people can often feel a subconscious desire to notice you and be captivated by you

─ ★ Sirene in the 2nd house

You can often find yourself tempted by stable, luxurious and refined people. A person who is materially successful, carries an elegant poise or is aware of their worth will easily be able to catch your eye and tempt you into noticing them further. You could wish to have them by your side, or wish to be them

─ ★ Sirene in the 3rd house

You understand the fact that the act of tempting goes through the mind first. You are most likely tempted by intelligent and witty people who can easily sway you with their words and allure you with their voice. Such person that embodies the traits I've enlisted can enter your thoughts and live rent-free in your mind, making you infatuated with them

─ ★ Sirene in the 4th house

This placement shows that deep down you crave people who make you feel safe and secure while also leaving a blueprint over your emotional world at the same time. You may simply not be able to resist a person that brings a sense of comfort into your life while also evoking some deep and intense emotions out of you

─ ★ Sirene in the 5th house

A wild, creative and free person with a young soul can be the person that will catch your eye the most. You could crave to be part of their lighthearted rhythm and their adventurous life, which would make you completely tempted by them. Once you find that someone who can convince you to love life and live it to the fullest, it's hard backing down from them

─ ★ Sirene in the 6th house

Temptation might not be what you're usually seeking. You could choose to focus on yourself, your discipline or your goals. Despite that, someone can still be able to tempt you, but subtly. You might slowly grow to admire a person that shares the same love for discipline, order or care as you

─ ★ Sirene in the 7th house

Throughout life you may have noticed that you tend to attract intense and hypnotizing people. Your relationships could've rarely been just casual because they were too magnetizing in order for you to keep your cool. There's always something tempting and irresistible about the partners that you had

─ ★ Sirene in the 8th house

A person who embraces their intensity, their shadow and their emotional authenticity would rarely scare you off, because you'd find them magnetic. You're probably the type of person who is displeased at the thought of having a light-hearted relationship because in reality you seek a devoted love that transforms you. You're easily tempted by a person who shares the same liking for deep romance as you

─ ★ Sirene in the 9th house

You just simply can't resist a person that's free, wild, knowledgeable and hard to pin down. Temptation for you doesn't come through intensity and heavy feelings, instead it comes through an uncontrollable thirst to find someone that embraces life as one big adventure and one beautiful lesson

─ ★ Sirene in the 10th house

You're most likely the type of person that always wants more from life, and that could reflect itself on the people that you're attracted to as well. You're unfazed by someone that lacks direction and ambition, and instead you're deeply attracted to a person that's serious, devoted to their craft and successful. You're tempted by someone who stands out in the public eye and is dedicated to their legacy

─ ★ Sirene in the 11th house

Temptation for you doesn't start from a quick hit of attraction, but from a slow friendship. You may often find yourself to be magnetized by a friend that you initially thought you wouldn't be attracted to, until something unexpected made you see them as more than a buddy. You don't want to be attracted to a stranger, instead you want to be magnetized by someone who already built a connection with you

─ ★ Sirene in the 12th house

When asteroid Sirene enters the foggy, subconscious and isolated 12th house, the art of temptation becomes less seen and more felt. If you have this placement, you may often notice that you're magnetized to people who can build a deep psychic connection with you rather than shallow things like physical aspect or status. It's almost impossible for you to resist a person who can attach themselves to every corner of your psyche
