Hey there! 💕Oof what an interesting question??💕💕 Personally I don’t really know much about familial signs and how it’s passed down ancestrally. I think there’s a few studies going on about it, but as far as I know most seems to point to several similarities a person may have to their parents/ancestors. 

In your chart -- there’s indications of your parents, children, neighbors, teachers, boss, friends, acquaintances, siblings, grandparents, in-laws, spouse. Besides the basic ones in the natal chart you can also use ‘derived’ houses to focus in on other people in your life (like clicking an ‘expand’ on a shortened post) -- but rulers of the houses will be important to see ‘what’ is happening there 💕Technically, you can use it to see others. 💕

There’s also the idea of -- your chart essentially being an ‘event chart’ of your parent’s relationship around the time you are conceived at ‘casted’ when you are born (your manifestation). You essentially become an accumulation and ‘internal look’ at what they are going through, what’s transpiring during the phrase you are conceived. And if you have siblings, checking their chart to see what transpired before/after can also help piece things together as well? 💕

On another note -- since the ask is about compatibility between family members -- you can also check aspects between Sun, ASC, Moon, Saturn, Uranus, DSC, IC-MC to see where you all ‘fit’ together and where tension/certain circumstances might lie. 💕

If you Mum/Dad is a certain sign, you can also check which house they rule in your chart and if anything is placed there (or where their rulers are). Aspects to that (i.e. your mum is a Capricorn and you are a Capricorn rising) and also indicate relationship from their side as well perhaps? 💕

Dispositions are important when checking chart rulers cause it can give more details on what’s happening, how, etc. But-- yeah, there’s a lot going on skjdsksk 💕💕

 Another thing to note is that the people you grow up with (social conditioning) also tells you what you take on/adapt and prefer in other people as well. I don’t have any strong Leo/Libras in my chart, but my best friend is dominated by those signs because I have Libra in the 11th (friends)

I also have Leo IC in my Draconic Chart -- so the way I would LIKE to be nurtured in my childhood-- I mostly got it from him. I also have Leo Ceres in my Natal -- the way I was conditioned and learnt, knew how to nurture is in a very Leo way.

Growing up with him, I find myself understanding and relating to other Libra/Leos in my life as well. 

Looking at your Ceres, Pallas, Juno and Vesta might help. I usually look to them for guidance when it comes to familial matter and also the IC/DC. 4th house and Moon signs, family stuff is included and expand on in astrology so profoundly (as far as I know, but there’s so much I probably can’t include them all in detail in this post). 

Synastry between two siblings is just as equally important as synastry between lovers or friends. Because it shows compatibility there and what still has to be worked through in relationships/dynamic between two people (especially with Chiron in 3rd or aspecting Mercury, or Saturn/Pluto somewhere)

Another thing to keep in mind is how limited astrology might be as well when you think about it (like, once you stray past the concrete side of thing). 

From our sun signs, our mercury is +/-1 signs away from what our sun is, and our venus is +/-2 signs away from our sun (mars is +/- 4).  If you think about 12 months in a year, and having a family unit of possibly 4 people (you, your mum, dad, one sibling) that generally covers a range of +/-4 signs that can tend to intersect each other just because your sun might share a similarity/difference to someone else already. So it’s personal, but also relatable to others as well. 

Happy belated birthday!! 💕 First of all I hope you had a great day and is enjoying this Virgo season! 💕 You didn’t bother me at all no worries! :) I’m glad you’re loving your astrology journey so far💕 I’m going to try to explain this, but feel free to let me know if you need clarification on anything ok? 💕

hello there!!!! uwu 💕 im answering this second ask first just because the first one is deeper in my askbox but skdjfn 💕💕 thank u for sending them in ;u; im always happy to hear from u and like interact/talk to u 💕

[Below Cut: Personal thoughts on Asteroids/Minor Planets]

A good place to start is with what I personally find interesting: Chiron, Juno, Ceres, Pallas, Vesta 💕Personally I try to get them down first just because they mean something to us personally/individually and I think of them as directly affecting us (like not just as an aspect of our lives, but influencing us in total as well). Of course with asteroids, the orbs/value is very important. Try to keep the aspect it has to another planet lower than 2′ (make sure it’s really tight).   

I try to start off with those and the hit on the others that interests me (the karmic stuff). So Lunar node, True Node, etc. 

And then the asteroids I have a growing interests in: Vertex, Psyche (‘16′ - on astro.com), Chaos (19521), Persephone (399) Nymphe (875), Lust (4386) and Sappho (80)

A good place to start finding interests in these asteroids would just be to consult someone who’s already interested in it/invested in it somehow? 💕

If you search the asteroids/minor planet tag on tumblr, there’s a few that would show up!  💕 Honestly it’s more of a ‘learn as I go’ kind of deal, I just kind of pick it up whenever I have time but I don’t actively spend insane amount of time studying them in depth. I kind of just makes inquiries and notes as I go.💕 

I hope this helps u somewhat!! You don’t have to force yourself to learn about things that don’t interest you 💕 So just take some time to figure out what you like/want to learn about, even if it’s not ‘mainstream’ 💕 That’s the point with asteroids, it’s also studying the time/events that occurred during it’s transit so most of the time-- if you’re just focusing on yourself you can look into things that’s relevant to you, for you instead (like you don’t have to make academic guesses/observations about things all the time or observe/make notes if you don’t want to-- it’s just easier to focus on things that you’re invested in because you can)  

Hey there!! 💕💕💕💕 Thanks for dropping by, I miss you but you know that!! 💕💕 But now I have it recorded on this blog as well! 💕

As for twins, you know that feeling when you share the same sun sign as someone? You get that your core came from the same place of understanding, but it’s so similar you feel like side-eyeing them instead of getting to know them instead? 

It depends on the person ig, but a lot of the time-- people who have the same sun sign as each other don’t necessarily get along because they can see the flaws in each other/themselves even clearer. That drive to get away from each other is what draws them apart, and it’s also what draws people with similar placements apart from each other as well. 

There’s protectiveness there sure, but the signs themselves encompass a lot of content you can pick and choose to be different to each other from. A Libra Sun might find interest in spirits, while the other might be a total critic of it. 

Sharing placements/signs with someone doesn’t guarantee that you are like them or will like them. There’s a lot more pulling them apart than together, but there’ll always be concealed understanding and frustration with each other because they see themselves reflected right back at them even if they don’t know it immediately.

Anyways, with twins. You can find them encompassing different parts of their charts even if they have the same chart. Which is why its like-- no one chart is the same as each other because it doesn’t work the same way for everyone y know?
