Bluelight Astrology Club :)

I'm not trying to be a hater here, but I must admit that whenever astrology is brought up, I tend to cringe. Whenever people ask me what my "sign" is, it really angers me; how many reasons to arbitrarily categorize people do we really need?

I think that astrology is a good example of pseudoscience (much like chiropractics). I really dislike how in astrology books they borrow lots of legitimate scientific ideas and use lots of big words in order to make it sound more realistic to people with no scientific training.

Personally I think its nothing more than one big logical fallacy dressed up as some type of legitimate discipline.
word i agree every single word, awesome post<3
 
time, place of birth?

3:00 AM in northern nsw, Australia (the East-side, very close the most easterly point)

thankyou... i'd appreciate any input ~ I find Astrological readings are often laced with insight
 
Mariposa- I had asked in the lounge astrology thread about the theory you are working on- maybe it would be more appropriate to place it here.....? I am really curious as to what you are trying to figure with mars and venus and parents.... It isn't often mentioned in books but i do notice a strange connection........ one thing i found in myself is that- though my mother and i are friends and get along well- I have alot of issues with her and I always wondered if it was venus or my ic line squaring my pluto in the first that brought on such plutonian issues with my mom.... Venus does conjoin my IC but there have been certain events in my life where a planet was conjoining venus but not my ic (i use a 5deg orb) and things with my mother had come up......

Sometime I read all of the horiscopes in the paper or whatever. Usually, 10 out of 12 can apply to me. Will someone do a reading for me, though? I'm interested in getting one that's not in the paper if ya'll feel me. I was born 11:36 PM on 8-27-88 in Savannh, Georgia (southeast USA). Any other info needed?

Random fun idea.
Take a picture of yourself with the theme of your sun sign
Butting_Heads_by_Blue_56.jpg


Yes, I know from where I come!
Insatiable like the fire Do I glow, consume myself.
Light is everything that I seize,
Ashes everything that I leave:
Fire am I without fail.

"You must want to burn up in your own flames"
 
I have a question in regards to interpreting charts.

When there is mention of a planet is in a weak position what does this mean. IE the sun is in a weak position therefore their ascendant will be more prominent.

Does it mean if the sun is in a small or high degree. Like if the sun is 27 degrees and the ascendant is 1degree does it mean the ascendant is strong and the sun is weak?

How do you work out which planets are strong and which are in weak positions?
 
No- The degree 1 degree vs 27 degrees does not show whether a planet is weak or not......
A planet in detriment, isolated or in fall would be considered weak.....
The planet in sign of fall is said to sort of resist the planets nature....
Like Mars in Cancer is in fall.........
Mars is a naturally passionate-a leader-authoritative and active-
Where as the sign of Cancer is more timid-more of a follower-emotional and in need of comfort.....
Mars is typically seen as male-Cancer/Moon female........
So Mars would have a difficult time being its natural self in a sign so dramatically different from its own nature......
(not wording this right??)
In detriment the planet is in the opposite sign of its home sign.....
For example- the sun (Leo)would be detriment in Aquarius......
So- If say the sun was weak you would look to the ascendant because the sun is the base of the personality and the 'life force' in a way and the ascendant is the self, how you present yourself to others....among other things.....


*****Mariposa and Enki are much better with words- they may be able to explain this better......

my star sign is in mars and it ascends into saturn...im a bit confused by that..
Aries ascending into capricorn.
does this have anything to do with mars and saturn?
Oh and I found something interesting...
I have 2 sagittarius parents.
I am an aries ascending into capricorn

a friend of mine has two leo parents
shes a scorpio ascending into capricorn

both scorpio and aries are mars now correct?

is there any connection between having parents with the same sign and having the same rising sign if you have the same planet as your star?

Oh and I find astrology funny because honestly I really have a hard time developing any feelings for someone, but the one person I do, when I checked natal compatibility, everything actually had positive outcomes in terms of its interpretations of the combo.
every other person i tested myself against came up sorta like "Well...theres all this shit you will need to work past...but it can be good" or "You are likely to fall into terrible fights and conflict and but you can also have really intense attraction and bonds in other areas"
The one person I actually do like, everything basically was much more positive, much more consistent in the good things too, and the negatives weren't so drastic.

Heres how we compare

____ ME ____ Her
sun Aries ____ leo
moon taurus ____ capricorn
mercury pisces ____ leo
venus pisces ____ leo
mars taurus ____ leo
jupiter aries ____ aries
saturn sag ____ sag
uranus sag ____ sag
neptune capricorn ____ capricorn
pluto scorpio ____ scorpio
lilith cancer ____ cancer
ascending node aries ____ aries


think it seems like a good match anyone? :P
 
Okay- I'd like an opinion on the upcoming mars uranus conj. on the 15th-
This conjunction happens in my brothers first house trining his saturn and squaring his mc-
It also makes a wide square to his mercury-(in the 9th)

Mars/Uranus squares my Neptune in the third......
Pluto is also transiting my third right now......
I normally really don't jump to negative assumptions but I've been worried about him lately.......Anyone have an opinion?

My primary work is not in synastry (analysis of relationships by aspect) but I'm quoting you so your data remains intact.

Aries cannot be on the cusp of Capricorn. I expect this is a terminological thing.

I'd like to see the degrees of all of this.

Ocean, the transits you describe are not alarming. Pluto is beating my IC too. You may well be worried over what will prove to be nothing though you are right to be concerned. Nice astrological eye. <3 I expect, tentatively, that your brother will be just fine. Favorable Mars-Pluto aspects certainly take no prisoners. As above, so below. Your brother is going to be fine and it won't be easy, but life can't do a Mars-Pluto ruled person in. <3

I'm waiting for Venus to go direct.
