It’s not uncommon to be confused about the significance of the
influence of the aspects of your sun, moon, rising and planets that
comprise your natal chart. The placement of the planets is determined based and the position of the earth in relation to
the sun at the exact moment and location of your birth.
Your Sun
Your sun rules how you express yourself, the center of who you are. Most of us are familiar with the 12 zodiac signs and their corresponding months, like Pisces, from February 19 through March 20. I’m a fan of Susan Miller who has fantastic extended monthly horoscopes at Astrologyzone if you want to read yours.
Let me be the guinea pig here as we take a look at Pisces. Most astrologer's describe Pisces as compassionate, musical and artistic, intuitive, gentle, timid, wise and fearful. Although there are several aspects that I do share with fellow Pisceans, no one has ever called me timid or fearful, ever! So, are all the astrologists wrong?
No, because of what I call the
trifecta, that collective of your sun, moon and
ascending signs that uniquely identify your overall personal traits. That’s why
when you listen to one of those astrology videos on YouTube, you often here
them advise you to check your moon and rising sign as well. I love concise accurate reports. and my recommendation is to visit Barbara Goldsmith and Stormie Grace. I am sure one if not both will resonate with you.
Your Moon
Your moon rules your emotions. Let’s just say that combined
with your sun sign it's your emotional modus operandi. I’m a Pisces with a Leo
moon, certainly an oxymoron for some to fathom, Pisces being so introverted,
Leo a more in your face demonstrative sign. This combination provides this Piscean
with good leadership traits as well as a very strong sense of independence and
purpose.
Your Ascendant
Your ascendant or rising sign rules how you present yourself to
the world. I have Scorpio as my ascendant. Another opposite trait to timid
Pisces, Scorpio tends to love the limelight, the combination bringing more magnetism
and sensuality to my interactions. Anyone who knows me personally can attest to how I love to be in the center of things.
Understanding the planets and where they fall in your chart helps
unlock some of the mysteries of who you are.
