ASPECTS in the natal Moon opp Venus, Moon opp Mercury

[adreena]

Hey All

Trying to understand better these aspects in the natal, specifically with these particular house placements 

Moon in 5th opposing Mercury and Venus both in the 11th AND Neptune square ASC. Been doing research online on these but there are so many interpretations of those. What's your view on them. Would hugely appreciate any suggestions. <3

So, a couple of things. First, I wouldn't say moon in 5th Venus in 11th unless you can confirm that this person really did have an ascendant of 0° Aries. I'm guessing that you didn't have access to the time of birth? That would also make any placements aspect the ascendant incorrect.

The time of birth could also throw the moon's placement off by a number of degrees, as the moon moves about 12° or so every 24 hours. In the chart shown, it is directly opposite Venus by degree, which would be the more strongly felt aspect. But if it were closer to opposite Mercury, that could change the focus.

In my experience, Moon Venus hard aspects in a woman's chart can show difficulty with the relationship with the mother, and a disconnect between the sense of what it means to be an adult woman and a "girl" in love. But that's not the only or necessarily the best interpretation. I've not seen it so much in a male's chart, but I can imagine how that might apply from his perspective.

Moon mercury is more a disconnect between the "head" telling you one thing, and the "heart telling you another. Leo moon is very romantic, idealistic, and playful, while mercury in aqua, while idealistic in its own way, is more cooley logical.

H!

Time of birth is correct to the minute and this chart is a chart of a male Wondered if this placement (Monn/Venus opposition) could mean that a person's emotions clash when it comes to how they feel internally versus how they show it to the group of people/friends/ online (11th house).

Thanks!

I can see that, yes. Leo moon is a very expressive moon. It likes to be seen. But the only real aspects it has to work with are those oppositions, Venus being the strongest. Perhaps the native was made to feel like their feelings don't count unless they apply to the larger group?

Guys, Ava, @astrokeen , should this be in the Readings section?

Hi there!

There's a lot to unpack with a chart, ofc, but I'll stick to the question.

If you're asking specifically about the Venus-Merc opposing Leo moon, I believe that does present a bit of a push-pull between wants and needs. This person may be the "cool girl/guy" of the group, and hold their friendships very dear. As much as they like being part of a social group that they adore (and that adores them), they do secretly need more affection and attention than their persona may indicate. Conversely, they probably are more possessive & passionate than they may like to come across.

Neptune square the Asc-Dsc axis, the Leo moon, and chart ruler mars in Libra disposited by Aqua Venus (-merc) together hold a big potential for creativity.

That's my 2 cents; based on the house system used here..

God I remember that full moon. What a life changer. (Just glanced at the chart, recognized the time).

12YearsABlob, I figured it was a general question about aspects so I left it here. If it starts turning into more of a personal reading, I will transfer.

[geminiblues]

Saturn in the first is going to make the native seem very reserved as well. But that's all tangled up with the mars opposition and the other 3 planets aspecting them, so that's a meal in itself to digest.

[geminiblues]

I see now what was messing me up. I'm used to seeing the ASC on the cusp. Ugh

Asc is 29 Aries, Whole sign. Threw me way off. Sorry.

[adreena]

Whole sign yes! ASC in Aries but Saturn there
