#chart shapes

i think elemental (fire, earth, air, water) and modal (cardinal, fixed, mutable) dominance in a chart play a huge role in how you come across. Besides planet and sign dominance, my first impression of people always relates to their most dominant element+mode in their chart. How they act, think, speak, even look like, very much relates to these two dominants in a chart since it is their general aura.

Planet and sign dominance, in my opinion, relate more to your life themes and what you’re focused on in this life. This of course shows through in what your life revolves around as well as what always seems to happen to you, regardless of the element+mode dominance you have.

I also think you can have up to 3 dominants for sign OR planet dominance! People are multifaceted after all, and the top 3 for each are highly likely to be your life themes. Also keep in mind many aspects to a planet (though it should be one of your dominants if that’s the case) and singletons. Any singleton (single planet in the ONLY element/mode in your chart) is bound to have a HUGE impact in your life, what you will learn, and what you are pushed to do in this life. For that planet, keep in mind the themes of the planet, the sign it’s in, and the house, because it will clue you in on the major themes of your life.

Hello!

Primary focus is on the shape of the bucket, and the opposing energies here. The handle is the focal point in the bucket chart pattern, because it represents the energy that 'challenges' what's obvious and lies on the surface (hence, your 1st house stellium). In your case you have two planets as the handle. You can interpret the aspects normally, just keep in mind that the themes of Jupiter and Saturn (more precisely in said sign and house).

I was just wondering if there was anything here that caught your eye? I honestly have no idea what to ask for so any kind of guidance you’re willing to give, I’ll be grateful for. Fame?(ick) Stability?(please) I got no clue.

Hi!

First, you have a locomotive shape with Jupiter as your last coach and Pluto as your first coach. Pluto here guides you and provides information on the overall themes and dynamics in your chart. With it being in the 5th house, I see how you might seek to express yourself creatively as this "pulls the rest of the coaches" so is the way that you move forward in life with the behavioral patterns displayed in your natal chart. It can be the moving force in your chart. You may feel like being your truest self and admitting to your darker sides is a fuel to your energy. It's too tiresome to always hide, you like to embrace your weird and dark and intense. You might not shy away from taboo topics or sharing how much money you make, for instance.

The last coach, Jupiter, here may feel like the weakest part of the group. It may show where restrictions lie and where you can be held back. Ironically, Jupiter is the planet of expansion. So seeing as it is in your 1st house, your world view may be holding you back or limiting you in your expression.

Regarding the overall theme of your chart, there is nothing else that would change how your placements work. You have no retrogrades, unaspected planets, interceptions or otherwise crucial aspect to your chart. I recommend you learn about each placement and then put it together. You actually have it easy here haha because you don't have to really look for anything when analyzing aspects (like people with interceptions do for instance, because a placement intercepted has a whole different meaning than it does when it's not intercepted etc.)

The best way to understand how your chart works is to really learn about every detail and then put all the puzzle pieces together. You will then also recognize which reoccuring themes there are and what you can work on.

Generally, oppositions are hard aspects which mean ''you vs me'' (you can look into sister/opposite signs for this too for more insight). Basically Cancer and Capricorn are the opposition of work and home life. Lilith is the dark moon and aspect in astrology that specifically analyzes jealousy and revenge.

Now putting that together, you can say that you may seek revenge when it comes to endeavors in your work life or plan revenge instead of jumping right into it. I can't really say a lot about the stellium because I don't know which celestial bodies are included, but you most likely feel or express to be opposed to revenge while you can treat Lilith as the ''taboo'' part of your psyche. You can read up on certain aspects like sun opposite lilith natal on several aspects if you want the information in detail.

Interceptions can be found when you look at the houses. When there is a sign that isn't on the cusp of a house (for instance when the 6th house starts in Libra and ends in Sagittarius like with Chan, and with that skips a sign, then you have Scorpio intercepted in the 6th house). When you found one intercepted sign, it's always the opposite sign that's also intercepted. Duplications are essentially just two houses stating in the same sign (Chan's second house starts in Cancer and ends in Cancer which also has his 3rd house starting in Cancer)

A planet in retrograde can be found by simply looking at the chart and locating celestial bodies with an R next to them.

Not everybody has interceptions or planets in retrograde natally, although most have planets going retrograde somewhere in their chart (the nodes are usually in retrograde). Most people, in fact, don't have interceptions. Moreover, when you use the whole house system, you can't have interceptions.
