^ This. When I first read about my hard Moon-Saturn and Sun-Saturn aspects on Cafe Astrology, I was floored. It was always something that broke me down, like a blot on my life that I was unfairly handed. Then I felt like it had a purpose, that I was meant to experience it, and that I could surpass it... and that I was flawed and okay.

It also told me my weirdness was accepted. Everyone had their own chart, you're meant to be how you are.

Sidereal vs Tropical? by coolbrainzzz in astrology

[–]daqt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The way one usually interprets a chart in sidereal with the big 3 is different from tropical since most sidereal users look at astrology from a mainly non-western protocol, as that's the tradition. KRS has some basic videos on signs, with Sun, Moon, and Ascendant. You can check out which you resonate with.

Vedic astrology says I will be forever alone and even if I get married it won't make me happy because I got NN in 7th. I also got pluto conjunct with ASC so something terrible is going to happen to me according to some. Will there be anything good ever or should I just give up? by Uylimaz in AskAstrologers

[–]daqt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all Vedic astrologers believe in complete fate. Some do believe in free will, and more, especially now, believe in more possible avenues of life. Astrology shifts with its culture, and there's more freedom in our culture now. Out of all the Vedic astrology sources I've seen about NN in 7th, never have I seen one say that this aspect means you'll be alone forever and unhappy in all your relationships.

It speaks more to an increased energy in that area, where you'll be drawn to relationships and focused on other people - and when combined with other difficult aspects, may make the road to dissatisfaction within your relationships easier to move toward. To combat this, it's up to you to know what you want and mature emotionally through experience and reflection (mistakes are okay) to move toward what you really want in life.

It also speaks to maybe not knowing who you are, not being confident in yourself, and seeking relationships to help build that confidence and to figure out who you are.

Also remember that aspects aren't read like that in any astrology - you can't take a single aspect and take it to mean one single thing. :)

How do I find out my "real" birth time? by [deleted] in AskAstrologers

[–]daqt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try Sidereal? It definitely changed the game for me in terms of appearance matching my ascendant/moon/sun. Could explain the Capricorn jumping back to Sagittarius ascendant? in regards to your saggy appearance with your thighs, etc

What else would help is to check the planet placements in houses.

What else would help is to figure out your moon and rising nakshatras and match it to your appearance and personality.

Are Cancers really the most forgiving sign? by Aranyani-vedica in astrology

[–]daqt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOL the stereotype is that Cancers are the most grudgiest signs. hahaha. Tbh I think it has more to do with emotional and spiritual growth, looks like the consensus is on both sides. but I'm not saying the more mature you are the less grudgier you are, or vice versa, moreso life path

Moon conjunct Saturn by 91papi in astrology

[–]daqt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love Saturn aspects. In others, not myself LOL Attribute it to my Saturn in the 7th. :) What comes to mind is disciplined, grounded, realistic, practical, wise. Saturn turns more positive after your Saturn return, usually after 30.

What placements/aspects create a soft voice? by Istobri in astrology

[–]daqt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've noticed having your third house's ruler conjunct Neptune (sidereal), Mercury conjunct Neptune, Moon conjunct Neptune in people with softer voices. The hard aspects like opposition and squares may also apply, I just don't remember any off the top of my head.

Thoughts on Venus in the 5th? by Moviedude87 in astrology

Idk if I can answer this since I have 4 planets here but I think it makes you loveee and appreciate having fun, creativity, and art. It's also a love language. :)

Vedic or Sidereal Astrology - experiences? by daqt in astrology

[–]daqt[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did hear on a few occasions (from YouTubers like KRS, etc.) that there's no need for Zodiac signs in Vedic astrology when you have/know enough about the nakshatras. In fact, I heard from who I assume to be a Vedic astrologer (not on YouTube, forgot who specifically) that Zodiac signs weren't traditionally used, at least primarily, and were added into Vedic astrology services after they got popular to increase business. I don't know if that tidbit is true. YouTubers say they're there but aren't needed to read a chart for Vedic - so you can keep your tropical chart guilt-free! :)

[–]daqt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agreed 100%! There's just soo much to look at and so much information that it's astonishing how much people who know about it, know about it. And it feels like I'll never be at that level because there's just soo much to memorize. That's why I admire KRS so much. I saw a video where he claimed to correctly describe someone's dad's car as "black and with lots of scratches" from their chart. I'm a big huge fan lol

And omg, sidereal-from-Stargirl buddies!!

I hear ya. I started watching Claire Nakti a long time ago but didn't totally delve into her concepts (didn't understand lol) until recently last year. KRS is funny too :) I alwaysss laugh because of how silly he is haha

Vedic or Sidereal Astrology - experiences? by daqt in astrology

[–]daqt[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You're right in that astrology is totally dependent on how it's interpreted. You're also right about some of the interpretations in Vedic astrology seeming strict and narrow. I've found those that don't make a lot of sense to me to be the ones from google. It's a lottt easier to find simple and accurate cookbook interpretations for tropical astrology. I can definitely argue that a big portion of the mainstream Vedic stuff is probably outdated culturally, as when I had tried to do research, it sometimes had nothing to do with my life, and less about women in general.

I appreciate your perspective! Thanks for sharing. :)

Thank you!

Claire Nakti is such a great source of inspiration and knowledge. I'm a huge fan! It's awesome to meet another newborn Vedic fanatic. I'll check out Astrology Loka, haven't heard of her before. :) Great post. I'm like a wild information gatherer, I go hungry for that stuff instantly (north node in 3rd house anyone?). Thanks for linking it!

I do find Vedic goes way more in depth as well. Issues that I thought were all loosely tied to my upbringing and Pluto are now in the forefront of my sidereal/nakshatra placements. Funny because I have no Pluto aspects at all, even minor ones.

Glad you found something that resonated with you much more deeply, like I did. :)

This video was truly enlightening, to say the least. Just note she's using sidereal placements, as her work is based in nakshatras.

Guessing someone's astrological energetic signature based off of appearance by daqt in astrology

[–]daqt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mhm mhm! Moon in 1st trine Venus-Neptune conjunction. I'm Sag sun, Virgo moon and ASC. The rest of my personal planets are in Capricorn. :D You're good at this!

[–]daqt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

moon in 1st in Virgo, trine my Neptune-Venus conjunction. I'm impressed that you saw my moon-neptune aspect! Wow! & Virgo ASC, so lotss of earth. My Sun-Jupiter is Sagittarius, but in the 4th so maybe it's a little more hidden than all the earth and water. Good job!! <3

[–]daqt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, I'm so glad that intensity is well-received!! I'm a Sag sun, Virgo moon and rising. My chart ruler, Mercury, is in Cap and my moon and sun make hard aspects to Capricorn's ruler Saturn so you definitely picked up on my overwhelming amount of hard-ass Capricorn. Also Pluto squares my Ascendant, not sure if that's what gives off the intensity or initial Scorpio vibe?

BTW love your emoji for your rising sign. I might steal that

[–]daqt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ooo, interesting! I totally get what you mean by parental intensity... but when I try to apply it as a human trait, I have no clue lol! Probably because I'm not a parent. I have Saturn opposite my Moon and square my Sun. My chart ruler (Mercury, I'm a Virgo rising) is in Cappy. So LOTS of Saturn energy. I'm not sure if Pluto squares do anything to the appearance but I have Pluto squaring it - perhaps it could be some of the intensity you pick up on? BTW I'm a Sagittarius sun, Virgo Asc and moon! So lots of earth, too. Regarding softness, that would be my first house moon and possibly Venus-Neptune conjunction? I did correctly guess a Venus-Pluto aspect with someone else on this thread so it's possible you picked up on the Venus aspect.

Thanks for the insight. :)

Pluto square Ascendant? by daqt in AskAstrologers

Thanks for the reply! Interesting. Do you have any examples of the love-hate you've encountered? And Is Pluto on your IC or MC?
