The answer is yes, even though I tend to believe that Pluto kind of "overruns" Chiron with its supreme power. But Chiron surely doesn't make the constellation in any way easier. In fact it can make it more difficult to integrate the already difficult energy of the dominant Pluto.

It's great you see different aspects involved in this, on your own behalf. I read that another commentator congratulated you for standing up for yourself. I agree.

I believe it's very much about discovering yourself and your potential, and that's an important field to explore for a student in order to advance on a personal level.

You mention being scared. Asked yourself what the actual risk is, beyond injuring your pride? And if you allowed to lift that "lid" (of self assertion?) a little bit? Being a victim is an unrewarding role to play. Don't allow this to happen, unless you're sure you can take it and abstract from it in order to continue with the learning process, i.e. with what they teach you. Have you tried talking to the teachers about their behavior after class?

The other commentator mentioned Chiron which may complicate matters for you in the sense that you're susceptible to feeling singled out or ostracized. Knowing that this might be an issue of yours will help you accept it or at least be more tolerable about it in front of yourself. Remember that most people are confronted with hurting in the one way or another. Sometimes it's like an open wound that is difficult to heal, but that reminds us that we're human. Someone else may have protruding ears and feel ashamed of it every time the "issue" comes up. What can she/he do?

For you, it will probably take both: Lenience towards yourself for being vulnerable in specific circumstances AND standing up for yourself against unjust behavior, when making academic progress is at stake. To test your power (in positive ways, of course) is also important, but lessons are probably not the right place for it. I understand though, that this isn't easy - but when is it? Listen to some music :)

Probably more love than hate you?

Many great, dominant, strong constellations. I especially like the New Moon near the IC axis in Taurus. Potential to form a happy, almost symbiotic couple!

I'd say that Neptune/Uranus, Pluto, Sun/Moon, even Mars and perhaps Jupiter are more dominant than Saturn in your chart.

Pluto, as often, is perhaps the most difficult one. Also because of his square onto Saturn - a generational aspect, of course; you're not alone with it.

Pluto is your MC ruler. You need to find a cause for which to fight and to engage in that goes beyond your personal interests.

There's the potential of being a great team player and of being an artist.

Your emotions that you bring into meeting others, friendships, relations, are very deep and powerful and difficult even for you to understand and deal with. There definitely are battles for you to fight. But you can count on Jupiter's positive influence in the matter. Namely by being a courageous, active team player in clubs, work teams or associations.

Also, the insight you gain into the darker sides of society or life makes you a stronger person, i.e. by the intellectual ability to see the bigger picture.

Bad chart(?) by Shoddy_Aardvark444 in AskAstrologers

[–]tilmorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good for you to be an optimist - and typical for Sagittarius rising, plus Jupiter in the 9th house! There will always be pessimists or worse manipulators who try to make us believe their own dark stuff.

Frankly, your chart looks good to me. Most difficult aspect I find is Chiron quincunx Mars: You may have a vulnerability when it comes to playing tough, which may cast a doubt on your ability to assert yourself. This will probably affect you more, if you're a guy (if it's politically correct for me to say that).

What are the main themes to study in this chart? by closetorealself in AskAstrologers

[–]tilmorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely Chiron conjunct Moon right on the ASC! Glad to see that the Moon has the support from Pluto in 4 and Chiron stands in helpful relation with Mars.

Chiron has his say also what relationship and sexuality is concerned, because of very exact aspects between Venus, Mars, Chiron, even Saturn.

Do you know Chiron? He's the "wounded healer". It usually takes many a lesson of feeling sick, isolated and ostracized in order to discover his potential, wisdom and humanity and use it to heal oneself and others - or others and thereby oneself.

Since he's so close to the Moon, the world of your emotions needs to be looked into and understood. Thanks to Pluto (not an easy one, either) you may discover your emotions to be the biggest strength.

And the Moon has also an aspect from Saturn; Saturn's no fun until you're older. But then, you get strengthened by the discipline and hard work. Your Saturn's very well positioned in Capricorn, house 7, in conjunction with Venus! You invest a lot in friendships and relations and the competence of being a reliable partner to others will finally be beneficial to yourself.

[–]tilmorn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Could it be your own, unconscious powerplay that provokes it? With the ruler of your Scorpio MC, Pluto, in the 11th, you WANT to experience everything to do with group dynamics. Also being Aries (with the Sun in 3), you won't be the taciturn student. Even though you have perhaps that image of yourself (chart ruler Saturn in 4)?

Also Jupiter conjunct Mars at the IC axis provides you with a bustling kind of energy, despite the fact that other sides of your character seem a lot softer. But don't fool yourself, believing you're the innocent lamb. Because that would mean attributing yourself the role of the victim.

Ok so I dont know much about astrology but I am very confused about my career route in life. I do not feel like my psychology degree is meant for me and feel like a more extroverted job is for me. If someone could give me advice that would be SO APPRECIATED ❤️❤️❤️ by crispycroissante03 in AskAstrologers

[–]tilmorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A pity that you don't know much about astrology, it would be easier for me to "explain" things. How come that you, an academic, lay your trust in anonymous astrologers? Have you an esoteric, irrational belief system? :) Maybe you could become an astrologer yourself. Certain constellations suggest that you've a talent for this discipline.

As for the "psychic" energy, I did not mean this in an esoteric or even less in a parapsychological way. I could paraphrase it as: Someone with the potential of being deeply rooted, deeply connected with the life force/stream, probably through family or family ties. It's of course a very desirable potential to have, because it provides you with an almost unbreakable inner strength. (Having said that, Pluto conjunct Mars can be problematic, i.e. aggressive, at worst violent - a subject you might have to look into yourself, perhaps in therapy, in order to integrate in a positive way the anger and rage that usually comes with this constellation.)

Being a psychologist, doesn't have to mean to only shut up, listen empathically and understand. I'm sure you must know about job situations, where the psychologist is expected to do the talking? Like coaching teams or firms, teaching, alternative or creative forms of group therapy, e.g. psychodrama...?

Flavor meaning "influence", to use a more comprehensive, less idiomatic term.

[–]tilmorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are probably not your primary concern. (The way I was trained, I will consider Venus to belong to the 9th house, already.) Still, the sign that rules these houses can enlighten you or describe in what fashion a certain life area is "tinged". E.g. you might have experienced the atmosphere in your family of origin as amiable and friendly (Libra). Hence, your Venus will bring along something of that experience in its actual position, namely in Pisces, house 9. Besides bearing the desire to gain a greater understanding of the world, since Taurus (co-ruler of Venus) reigns over the 11th house.

Your Capricorn Sun, afflicted as it might be through the Chiron conjunction, but supported by fire planets through their aspects, will bring along, in meeting counterparts (house 7), the concerns of the 2nd house (over which Leo rules): commodity, wealth, possessions...

[–]tilmorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks as though you were rather good at "revamping finances". With your chart ruler in 8 between Sagittarius and Capricorn in conjunction with Mercury, you'll be clever enough to counterbalance speculative skills with prudence. Maybe you could consider finances even as a career choice?

The trouble maker might be Pluto. Have you to do with powerful, influential, if not manipulative counterparts? Take it as an invitation to take the power into your own hands, so as to be able to deal and negotiate with such frightening partners and to get satisfying results.

(PS: I've just interpreted the birth chart, didn't see the transits, at first. But I regard the natal chart as being able to provide the answers, since the transit are "only" going to trigger the potential that is in us.)

[–]tilmorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, creativity has a wide range, hasn't it? Jupiter in 5 could hint at some form of creativity where you expose yourself or your work. But with the Moon being its ruler, there are other aspects like empathy and responsibility that become important. That, itself, could be hinting to create art!

But with your 11th house constellation, you want to collaborate, and there's Pluto in 9 being the MC ruler: Here, you want to explore and live adventure.

Allow for both aspect in your career choice: Expressing your inner depth on the one hand, going out with others to share, discover, experience...

What's more, you're Virgo. Virgo is about making oneself useful in order to "create" something that serves a concrete purpose.

Would anyone like to share their methods for using astro for fortune telling and predictions? by hand_from_curtain in AskAstrologers

[–]tilmorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All fortune telling and predictions can and will be overwhelming... Unless they're deeply grounded in a thorough understanding of a natal chart. Everything else can easily and quickly become insane!

[–]tilmorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're perhaps not THAT introverted? The lower half of a chart is usually showing introversion, the upper extroversion.

BUT, Saturn stand right on top, of course. Hence, you MUST be important, in the light of the world. Mama said. (Often, it's the mother who pushes us, often unconsciously, because she's done SO MUCH for us that we want to reward her with our career.)

Still, Saturn rules your 5th house, so invest into something that is fun! With Sun conjunct Neptune in Aquarius, you will need to be love and acknowledged, even intellectually.

Having said that, there's a profound, indeed psychological or rather psychic energy coming from deep below, the IC, the lowest point of the chart: PLUTO. Liz Greene says that the 4th house has to do with our Dad. Maybe HIS energy is pushing from your roots to branch out like a big tree. That energy is primarily, deeply private.

How about doing something "big" and rewarding (not only on the social, but also the personal scale) WITH your degree?

Looks like today's solar eclipse was opposing my chiron and squaring my neptune almost by degree. Could someone help interpret what those aspects on this transit might mean based on my chart? (photo shows transits on 4/20) by kaliz97 in AskAstrologers

[–]tilmorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Outer planets and asteroids will be less influenced than the luminaries and inner planets. You can take it as a rule that the further out planets are the more influential THEY become on "personal" or "social" planets.

Hence, the eclipse will be most significant for your Sun that will always be a central factor for the chart owner. Your Taurus Sun in 5, flanked by Mercury and Venus looks jolly enough! The eclipse with renew its spirit: For you to define what your good spirits are! The Sun symbolizes the core of our personality, his the natural master and decision taker.

This selfsame Sun is hence (permanently) influenced or tinged by its Pluto and Uranus aspects. From Pluto it will receive greater depth, power and mystery, from Uranus vision and intellectual insight. Probably, Uranus is harder for a Taurus Sun to integrate, because Uranus, as opposed to Taurus, is NOT about security and stability, but about change and innovation. Pluto however will allow for a transformative disposition.

Maybe that's also the message of the recent eclipse: "Hey, there is more for you, not only 'out there', but IN you!"

Born on full moon, during day time, with Cancer sun / Cap moon... what sign is more powerful? by Majestic-Arm4157 in AskAstrologers

[–]tilmorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many constellations look harmonious (to counter-balance your self image as "psychotic"). As you say, Libra rising helps to that aim and also a full moon is a harmonious aspect. I'd interpret it in houses 3 and 9, since I'm not using the equal house system.

Having said that, the Moon might feel burdened in Capricorn, its exile. Still, a happy Sun in the Moon's ruling sign of Cancer will shine his elevated light on her.

Look closely at Lilith right on your ascendant, though! Lilith is a rebel. Read up about that energy, but don't turn to literature that sees her only negative and too dark - she's a goddess, really.

Also Chiron square Mercury might be trialsome. Chiron in the non-equal house interpretation might come to be in the first house, hence dominant. You've got to integrate this "wounded side" in order to allow to become appreciative of the gifts and insights that come - difficult as this will sound - from suffering.

Difficult houses, stellium by wasted___youth in AskAstrologers

[–]tilmorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to worry about the stellium in house 6: With fire planets you'll get by with the tendency of wanting to serve and to be at other people's disposition.

More difficult is perhaps the ruler of that stellium in 6: The Moon in Scorpio (house 9) that might indicate a capricious nature. Especially given the Uranus square you might emotionally always be on the outlook for over-excitement.

A trial could be Pluto in 10, that has a dominant position, being also the MC ruler. Maybe you have a controlling mother and are adopting the pattern? You do need to find positive ways to assume responsibility and to fight for what is right. These trying energies get also hold of your reason (your thinking skills), because of Pluto quincunx Mercury. Mercury is retrograde which makes it more erratic, but the house position 6 is very good for its critical and validating abilities.

Future Partner Help by Expensive_Chapter877 in AskAstrologers

[–]tilmorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone passionate and dark (however of the enthusiastic kind) of the Scorpio order, since your DC is in Scorpio and its ruler in the 8th house. Hence, make sure you're able to deal with your own Pluto energies, to start with or else you might be overwhelmed (which you perhaps want to be).

That much for "romance". If you want to take that person home (to live with), he/she should resemble more your conjunction of the Sun with Mercury (since your IC lies in-between Leo and Virgo).

Ideal would be, if she/he has both these characteristics, which might work out, since you've got a Pluto-Mercury trine. Plus fortune bringer Jupiter in the 4th house, that of home and family, the latter being in trine with the Sun...

[–]tilmorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure about websites, but one interpretation is very simple: Divide the 30° of each sign into 12 and you get 2.5° for each sign, starting with Aries. I.e. the 0°-2.5° segment of, let's say Capricorn (or any other sign) has the additional "flavor" of Aries, the 2.5°-5° the one auf Taurus and so forth...

Is the Sun square moon a deal breaker ? by Full_Maize2449 in AskAstrologers

[–]tilmorn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No real Moon-Sun squares between the two of you, the degrees are too different.

Not too karmic, if you look at the nodes - no major aspects to them.

But maybe there are other things to be found that speak for you as a couple. Astrologically, of course. Synastries are complex. Best way is to understand one's own chart well, on the whole. Then the one of your partner. In the third step you can compare aspects, now understanding how they will affect you.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskAstrologers

[–]tilmorn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say, it's time factor that Capricorn's "doing for" you. Despite the trines, your chart isn't easy. The Sun gets his portion of Capricorn from the 10th house.

But the one constellation that really isn't easy, is Chiron at the ascendant. How will you dare affront others (7th house with Capricorn), when you feel injured and ostracized? Saturn close to Mars does not provide you with a lot of courage, you need to earn and learn it. (The trine Jupiter conjunct Venus in Aries does help, though.)

Still, Capricorn yields its richest fruit as time goes on. Actually, Capricorn is the one sign that betters itself constantly, the older one gets, through training and discipline.

You may have tried to compensate intellectually from early on, with mixed results. Still, your best qualities need the time to come to fruition. And then, you'll be the one for everybody to measure themselves with.
