#astro-notes

Fall is here and I've decided to rewatch Twilight, all 5 movies. The franchise is a phenomenon that most can't explain. We all know that it's very bad but also excellent and no one can deny the cultural impact it had. I was 10 when the last movie came out and I remember how everything was saturated with it. The movies serve as a time capsule and when I first watched all the movies last year, even though I've never seen them before, Breaking Dawn p.2 still catapulted me back to 2012. It's a really good way to learn recent history 😅.

Whether you like it or not, Twilight is an important part in pop history. You've obviously heard of the "still a better love story than Twilight" joke, at the very least.

Anyways, I want to analyze the movies via vedic astrology, specifically, nakshatras. We'll start with the author of the books, Stephenie Meyer.

Stephenie Myer has Sun-Moon-Rahu conjunction in Mula nakshatra.

Mula deals with everything abnormal, with horrors hidden in plain sight. It has a strong connection to animals and creatures that are considered dangerous. Overall, Twilight is still about Bella finding out about the supernatural and even falling in love with and becoming such a creature. The gloomy atmosphere of the first movie really suits Mula because of its Ketu rulership and the city of Forks really suits Ardra- Mula's yoni consort, but I'll talk about that in a second. First, let's begin with the characters.

Bella Swan

Kristen Stewart - Hasta moon (Revati sun, Rohini ascendant)

The modern myth of Persephone

In many ways, Twilight mirrors the myth of Persephone. Kristen's moon nakshatra- Hasta being tied to this goddess, she plays a convincing transition from innocence and inexperience into reaching your full potential through transformation. Hasta nakshatra is in the middle of Virgo- the most material sign, connected to the 6th house of everyday worldly matters. It's female at her most independent and untainted, either completely shutting off male influence or completely embracing it.

So, Hasta is Persephone, Queen of the dead who was abducted by the God of the dead and underwold- Hades while she was still just an innocent maiden, picking flowers with her friends.

We see Bella being defined by her surroundings and relationships, which is a common complaint that people have while watching this movie, but that's precisely why she's the modern Persephone. Persephone was loved by her mother - Demeter, but she was also rarely, if ever mentioned without her mother in mythologies as Kore, the maiden, before she became Persephone- Queen of the Dead. Bella manages to stand out with her awkwardness and uniqueness even though, by stereotypical standards, she "has no personality". Eventually, her romance with Edward triggers a deep and fast transformation, symbolized in the movies by Bella becoming a vampire, and what a vampire she became.

Bella's transformation and power

We see that Bella as a newborn vampire has impressive self control and nice skills. She also gained a power to shield. Now, Hasta in females often manifests as extreme defensiveness. It's the nakshatra of the female being closed off or completely open, and we see Bella opening up completely to Edward, his family her own family and Jacob while shutting off any other influence, thus, protecting herself and those who she opened up to from anything.

Hades is connected to Bharani nakshatra. Let's move over to the Hades in Twilight.

Edward Cullen

Robert Pattinson- Ardra Moon (Krittika sun, Bharani ascendant)

Ardra- the yoni consort of Mula (dog yonis) is known as "the moist one". It almost always rains in the city of Forks (at least in the movie version of it, lol) and it's almost always gloomy. Mula and Ardra being yoni consorts, it makes sense why Stephenie Meyer wrote about the Ardra archetype. Ardra (and rahu nakshatras in general) are connected to inherited wealth, and we see that Edward's family is most likely the richest one in town. Wealth doesn't substitute for happiness, though, and Ardras are almost always tortured souls who struggle a lot internally but maintain a cold exterior, that cracks sometimes to unleash all the angst and anger that has been held inside. Edward is definitely a tortured soul who makes things a lot more complicated then they are. He doesn't even believe he has a soul for most of the franchise. Ardra men are also frequently seen as extremely attractive by women, especially because they always have hidden depths.

Besides that Ardra archetype, Edward serves as a Hades figure who falls in love with the innocent Persephone- Bella, who, like Persephone, eventually becomes a force to be reckoned with. Robert Pattinson has Bharani ascendant, the nakshatra connected to that God and the underworld.

All the ways Kristen and Robert's nakshatras connect mythologically

Hasta and Bharani - Persephone and Hades

Rohini and Krittika - Eve and Adam

Hasta/Rohini and Krittika - The Moon and The Sun

Revati and Bharani - yoni consorts (!!)

The love triangle and enemy yonis

Jacob Black

Taylor Lautner - Krittika moon, Dhanishta sun, Krittika ascendant

The wolves in Twilight are depicted as complete opposites of the vampires. They're impulsive, forward, outwardly aggressive and temperamental, whereas vampires are characterised by more self-control, coldness and refinment.

Besides both of them being Krittika, Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson have enemy yoni nakshatras: Taylor's Dhanishta sun_ mars ruled and lion yoni, outwardly aggressive and more forward and Robert's Bharani ascendant_ venus ruled, elephant yoni, internally very selective and outwardly more compliant and refined, more subtle. None of them are better than the other, but since Bella is the protagonist, vampires and Edward in particular are more frquently painted in the positive light.

I've also seen more movies where enemies are actually played by actors or actresses with enemy yoni nakshatras. It's one of the most common patterns I've observed.

So, Jacobs's lion yoni, martian demeanor frequently clashed with Bella's and Edward's elephant yoni nakshatras. It's interesting that both of those yonis are kings of the jungle and fight for authority. Traditionally, elephant yonis are associated with authority and lion yonis are their disruptors and these films certainly showcase that in the form of the love triangle.

Renesmee Cullen

Mackenzie Foy - Bharani moon (Vishakha sun, Krittika ascendant)

I always associated Bharani females with the archetype of being born into a family where they play the role of a sort of "princess" who adopts her family's ways from an early age (I hope this made sense). You know, the chiefdan's daughter or the headstrong capricious princess in fairy tales, those are all tropes I associate with Bharani.

Besides that, Bharani is another nakshatra associated with Persephone and seeing as Jacob imprints on her WHEN SHE'S A LITERAL NEWBORN, I think we have a repetition of the Persephone- Hades myth. Also, Jacob is double Krittika and Renesmee is Bharani and the female Bharani- male Krittika dynamic is the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. Jacob being assigned to protect Renesmee and saving her life is definitely connected to that myth. Also, we have a lot of Krittikas in this franchise.

Bonus: The Volturi

Two out of the 3 rulers of Volturi have Venus nakshatra moons:

Michael Sheen as Aro - Purva Phalguni moon

Jamie Campbell Bower as Caius - Bharani moon

Makes sense since they're considered the elite and Venus is tied with elitism.

So, this is pretty much all I wanted to say. If you liked this post please interact with me, like, comment, reblog or even message me. Happy fall equinox and take care 🤍🧛🏻👩🐺

Hi,

Apologies for neglecting to respond to some asks for months.

Composite Moon Conjunct Ascendant

🍃 A pair that seems comfortable and at home with one another

🍃 Emotionally bonded

🍃 Possible emotional projection on to each other because their individual feelings become so watery and blended with the other person that the lines can be blurred between who is feeling what (you could assume the emotions of the other person)

🍃 Could bring out the "homebody" in each other

🍃 May become deeply familiar with each other

Hope this is of some help,

let me know in the comments 😅

Because when I see astrology posts talking about astroids, I usually only see people talking about them if they conjunct a planet/placement, and usually within a 3° orbit or less.

I still like to consider them important if they don't conjunct anything but still make aspects to a lot of planets/placements in one's chart. Also I still think they hold a small bit of significance in the 1st house even if they don't conjunct anything, but let me know what yall think!

° aquarius teachers love roasting their students

° hanging out with moon in 1st house individuals can be really confusing for many. their mood changes every 0.2 seconds and they make the darkest jokes with a smiley face. but nonetheless they're really endearing and sweet so go give them a virtual hug whenever you can

° having saturn in 5th house could mean that you will receive your most important life lessons through children, whether it be your own or someone else's

° mars in 3rd house people have a strategic mind and therefore they might enjoy playing chess

° mercury in 10th natives have a very fluctuating reputation. yes, they're seen as smart, resourceful and they gain respect easily. but they also have many enemies who twist their words and spread rumors about them so be careful if you have this placement

° venus in 6th house finds beauty and inspiration in very small and simple things. they are the type to look at the flowers on the side of the road for minutes with a smile on their face

° chiron conjunct venus in synastry is the "you're everything I've ever needed" type of connection but it can become codependent if both parties aren't developed

° leo placements love looking at old family albums and reminiscing their past

° pisces ic/neptune in 4th often find comfort in movies or tv shows

° saturn in 12th house people seem like they have everything under control but in reality they have many things they have to deal with behind closed doors

° cancer risings generally have curly hair, a soft voice and sleepy eyes

° mercury dominants are smart, chatty, mischievous and have plenty of nervous energy

° taurus/libra/7th or 2nd house dominant people tend to have many admirers

° virgo placements, especially virgo risings, are really photogenic

° cancer placements work hard and do really well at school

° chiron in 7th house natives learn a lot from their partners and grow through relationships

So this was the post that I wanted to put out here but due to that problem that I had I couldn’t :( This post is about sun + moon signs based only on people I know hehehe

Cancer sun + Virgo moon: It can be a good combination since it’s a mix of emotions and rationality. But the bad thing about this placements is that this person can be manipulative due to Cancer’s influence and be intelligent and smart with words: But they are empathetic (or at least that’s how they seem sometimes), caring, lovable and friend of their friends. Because of Virgo moon, this person can have anxiety problems and be insecure in some cases. They hide their emotions and they can be the type that could disappear for about a week and later on they’ll just say “I needed a break’’. Intelligent, observant. You’ll know when they’re comfortable with you.

Aries sun + Scorpio moon: I have a thing for Scorpio moons I swear to God. I like this combination but not too much. The bad thing about this placements is that mixing impulsivity with such deep emotions are not a good idea if it’s a little but undeveloped. They don’t like expressing their feelings that much, they prefer to be secretive about their stuff. They’re crazy people, but I like their personality because normally they do whatever the fuck they want and won’t care that much about people’s opinions. They could be a little bit manipulative but I can’t say much, I wouldn’t know when they’re lying or telling the truth. As I said, it depends on the maturity. But some could be naive and others don’t. Intelligent.

Virgo sun + Virgo moon: Now this is the type of combination where people are going to think: “the placements of perfectionists’’. Well let me tell ya somethin’ THAT AIN’T TRUE hehehe they’re the type of people that would put a weekly list with the things they are going to do to save everything for the last day or do everything in the wrong way. They’re loyal, humble, caring but the negative side is their rudeness and they’re sometimes a lil bit mischievous. When they’re angry, they would say hurtful things and the next day will be sorry about it. They rarely trust anybody so If they do with you, congrats.

Leo sun + Leo moon: You know what? I don’t like this placements that much. Being an Aquarius I should feel good having when being around these people, but idk why I just see them a lil bit repulsive, maybe bcz I’m dealing with an undeveloped one. They’re humble and kind and all of that, but they can be your friend and maybe, if they want, they’ll talk bad behind your back sometimes for no reason at all. They criticize people a lot and they always want to be the protagonist in every situation. I even see people sometimes seeing them as irritating. They think they know everything. I think they sometimes act this way due to their insecurities. They’re very insecure actually, they don’t like to feel alone, betrayed or ignored. They know how to be the victim. 

Virgo sun + Aries moon: Being a Virgo moon and being friend of an Aries moon is not always a good idea, but I like them actually. Not always tho. They have such strong personality, they’re ambitious, caring and very lovable if they like you and see you as their friend, but sometimes very impulsive. They get angry, mad or irritated quite easily. Sometimes they have the need to control situations and even people, and they hate the ones who have no personality or f.e they don’t have a unique style. They like being around fun, chill people who know how to live life. Mood changes easily. 

Gemini sun + Taurus moon: I just like them. That’s it. The only bad thing I would say is that they’re stubborn and will always want to do things their own way. But I love being around them. They can talk about anything anytime, they have quick minds and they’re so fun to be around! Good vibes only. They like taking pictures. A lil bit narcissists but they’re actually humble, very kind. Good liars. They laugh about the stupidest thing. When they read something they talk like a robot. Loud voices, they won’t shut up.

Mars conjunct mercury has fighting words, whatever mars touches there is activity, there is action, these never let anything stop them for what they fight for

Mars conjunct mercury known to speaks very fast, may be impulsive and demanding, they speak at fast pace, possibilities that you can’t catch up with these combinations XD

they may took a big interest into crime, weapons, military may be an significance, may not be true for everyone but there is an big interest in WWE and fights, cause who don’t like watching fights n’ debates, i do too :D

Accident-prone with their words, they can be a domain affect where these people are so known to over-talk people, tendency to be first in a persons conversation and may speak in a very vastful way that can offend others and interrupt others and they don’t mean it in that way but how they speak, they so strive to make an conversation with anyone, tends to be very fast with their active mind 

Approximately have all the answers to everything, they are very intelligent and gain information very fast, they have been those who were the ones who always raise their hand in class were the first one to already know the right answer and if get wrong answers’ that can build a awareness to these people to make right answers next time, others with this significance may cheat .. others can be impressed by the way they speak and their active mind fascinates them.

Combinations like this.. they can use it in a way to motivate others.  

even if mercury is in sagittarius, mercury in sag can be pronounced for speaking facts, must be a preacher

pretty quick-witted n’ downright honest

These don’t let anyone put them down, they strive for what they put their mind to and these can get angry and offensiveness when you try to stop these people, wouldn’t try them if i were you- 😂

will not back down from a argument, they tend win arguments with your excellent debating skills can run up a heat with their sharp-tongue.

your drive and enthusiasm drives you forward in your life and nothing cant stop these people for what motivates them for what they doing.

norm to fight for their beliefs 

💐Tauruses rarely have dark eyes ,they are mostly hazel/green/blue

💐Cancers especially Sun and Rising are very manipulative

💐Taurus Moons can gain weight really quick

💐Pisces Mercury are very dreamy and poetic and they can't limit to a number of words they always have to make entire paragraphs

💐Virgo Rising kinda covers all the bad traits of your Sun sign whatever it might be

💐Virgo in 3rd house people can sing good

💐Scorpio Sun/Rising are mysterious and they are hard to convince

💐Venus in Capricorn are one of the most loyal placements but they tend to dream sometimes on a relationship with someone else without cheating

💐Venus in Gemini are mostly cheaters but once they found the "other half " they don't even look at other people

💐Taurus and Scorpio/ Virgo somehow always attracts one another , I mean you can be a Taurus and have a Virgo child or a Scorpio that has a Taurus sibling

💐Same thing applied for Gemini with Aquarius

💐Most people with Tauruses placements especially Sun and Moon have a chin dimple

💐Aquarius are really complex people and not at all cold in feelings but cold when hurt

💐Leo Risings can spend hours in getting ready and will usually be late due to their obsession of looking the way they want
