#astro thoughts

My question is general, but I wanted to know what you think of each of the Saturn Nakshatras, their symbolism/any tidbits you can give? Thank you!! 🌹

hi honey love !! thanks for being so kind 🥰

so the modern association of "ruling planets" for the 27 nakshatras is actually just an organizational tool used to sequence a person's planetary periods (dashas) as defined by the vimshottari dasha system. the true rulers of the nakshatras are the Devas that are individually associated with each of them !!

i still want to give you some insight though, so let's talk about:

PUSHYA NAKSHATRA (3°20 to 16°40 cancer)

the Nakshatra Devata for pushya is Lord Brihaspati, who is actually the embodiment of planet jupiter !! and one of the most famous stories of Lord Brihaspati is the story of Him and Maa Tara.

Brihaspati is known as Devaguru (lit. "the divine teacher of the Gods"). because of His role, He becomes intensely absorbed in His spiritual duties, scriptural rituals, and His prestigious position as the priest of the Gods. and even though Lord Brihaspati's work was extremely important, it consumed all of His attention, leaving Maa Tara feeling emotionally abandoned and driving Her to seek affection elsewhere — ironically, She ends up finding it from the moon God, Chandra. the very planet that rules over the sign of cancer.

hey honey !! thank you for appreciating my content :) here are my thoughts on these placements:

NORTH NODE IN ARIES

one of the more rebellious positions for the north node to be in. really resists being constrained or defined by other people, and really disliked being micromanaged or controlled. they can struggle when it comes to collaborating with people without getting frustrated easily (another victim of "let me just do it myself" syndrome), but they are extremely driven and capable due to their independent and motivated nature. aries in general likes to show a lot of initiative for the benefit of others, but not with other people necessarily being involved in the process of executing that initiative lol.

NORTH NODE IN THE 1H

highly intelligent people; have a constant craving for learning and acquiring new knowledge regardless of the subject or how "useful" the information may be to them. naturally very curious, but they can also be a bit mischievous because of it. tends to be rambunctious or restless during childhood from their insatiable need for intellectual stimulus — similar to mars in the 1H they get "problem child" treatment because the adults around them can't understand their minds or behavior.

very inventive and inspired. even when the north node transits our 1H, this is a great time to bring new ideas from the imaginative territory of our minds, straight into the flesh of the earth. with the north node in the 1H, the native is blessed with an exceptional imagination and creative potency, but they can also be super prone to overthinking and rumination because of how imaginative they are. this placement generally brings natural talent with numbers, science, computers and technology, etc.

PISCES RISING

my second favorite rising sign !! they are so generous, giving, and they have a grace that is just otherworldly to me. they can be so patient with other people, the only thing is that they are not so patient with themselves — many such cases with pisces. one of the quieter pisces placements in my experience. they may not say much, but when they do, it's always something good. i actually think they're an underrated placement when it comes to the "funniest rising signs" conversation !! i love their sense of humor, i think it's really unique.

they also tend to fit the hippie stereotype lol. very musical people and are almost always listening to music or emitting some sort of musical noise (humming, whistling, singing). they have a strong, inborn pull towards spirituality and to pursue spiritual, emotional careers; thus, they function quite well in healthcare and counseling.

RISING AT A CANCER DEGREE (4°, 16,° 28°)

their identity and self-expression will revolve around nurturance, being gentle to others, and selflessness. people with cancer influence on their rising tend to gain more energy by spending time alone or with very close friends, rather than by being out in the world interacting with tons of people every day. this cancerian influence on the ascendant can also make people a bit camera shy i've noticed !! but even if they're more introverted, they really know how to defend their loved ones from being persecuted by other people.

heavy 4th house placements, especially having more than one planet in the 4th house of the other person.

mars in the 4th house. usually the mars person approached the 4th house person or made things official.

ascendant conjunct descendant. the ascendant person presents themselves in a way that the descendant person thinks is ideal for a partner.

mars or venus in the 10th house makes the house person dependant or submissive towards the planet person.

asteroid groom for ppl who are attracted to men in 4th, 5th,6th or 7th house is a great marriage indicator.

asteroid juno in 7th house makes the juno person the ideal partner for the the house person.

mercury in 3rd shows similar ideals and thinking process, you'd understand each other and have communication.

moon trine moon or venus.

venus conjuct mars.

asteroid amor in 1st, 4th, 5th, or 7th.

sun in 1st or 7th.

hi angel, i love the moon in cancer it's actually one of my favorite lunar placements !! here's how i'd interpret this natal alignment:

THE MOON IN CANCER

family is super central to their life and personality (similarly to leo moons), and they tend to always put family first when making important decisions, regardless of if it's their biological or chosen family !! not the type to do well far from home for too long as a result. they're actually great socializers (more than they give themselves credit for), but i will say they are pretty introverted. one thing i admire about them is their desire to nurture and help other people even though they're a little shy. they are very kind people; naturally polite and considerate of others.

though, they are quite absorbent emotionally. it can be difficult for cancer moons to separate their own emotions from the emotions of others around them, especially when it comes to their loved ones. this sensitivity makes them great listeners, counselors, and caretakers, but i will say it's very important to really individuate yourselves emotionally and spiritually in life, so y'all don't feel so shaken by other people's difficult feelings !!

THE MOON IN THE 12H

this lunar placement is also quite emotionally absorbent and susceptible to adopting people's feelings for them, so they usually need lots of alone time. solitude is their healing wavelength. they tend to thrive in professional roles that are isolated, niche, or centered around the exchange of emotions. it's good for 12H moons to do things that are kinda weird to other people lol. 12H moons are such secret weirdos it's really cute, but it's also why they tend to perform a lot socially and feel misunderstood by the world.
