Mars/Venus: Instincts + Attraction

Your rising sign can be used in addition to your Mars sign (and house placement), as Mars rules the first house. These represent an archetype you often find yourself gravitating towards whether it be situations or people who embody these themes, you also tend to embody them yourself.

I am instinctively drawn towards…

Mars in Aries: Freedom, action, adventure, self discovery. Mars in Taurus: Security, nature, beauty, leisure, whatever reflects my values. Mars in Gemini: Variety, wit, communication, language, facts, intellectualism. Mars in Cancer: Nurturing, being nurtured, nostalgia, comfort, home. Mars in Leo: Self-expression, theatricality, glamour, romance, fun. Mars in Virgo: Self-improvement, analysis, humility, perfectionism. Mars in Libra: Relationships, aesthetics, diplomacy, sophistication, fantasy. Mars in Scorpio: Intensity, power, sex, the morbid, hidden or occult. Mars in Sagittarius: Truth, philosophy, religion, other cultures, academia. Mars in Capricorn: Wisdom, discipline, social status, authority. Mars in Aquarius: Genius, science, groups, rebellion, the unconventional. Mars in Pisces: Spirituality, sacrifice, sensitivity, isolation, escapism.

Your descendant and 2nd house can be used in addition to your Venus sign and house placement, as Venus rules both the 2nd and 7th house. The Taurus or 2nd house side of Venus represents an archetype you value while the Libra/7th house side represents what you often attract into your life through others.

I tend to value or attract people who are…

Venus in Aries: Invigorating, courageous, competitive, selfish, bullying, naive. Venus in Taurus: Dependable, artistic, beautiful, stubborn, possessive, greedy. Venus in Gemini: Clever, talkative, curious, intellectual, immature, dishonest. Venus in Cancer: Nurturing, gentle, domestic, needy, moody, irrational. Venus in Leo: Confident, fun, creative, romantic, egotistical, attention-seeking. Venus in Virgo: Health-conscious, helpful, analytical, humble, critical, anxious. Venus in Libra: Polite, charming, elegant, flaky, co-dependent, unstable. Venus in Scorpio: Powerful, perceptive, deep, manipulative, destructive. Venus in Sagittarius: Profound, cultured, optimistic, arrogant, blunt, foolish. Venus in Capricorn: Ambitious, disciplined, wise, repressed, intolerant. Venus in Aquarius: Friendly, unique, rebellious, detached, unpredictable. Venus in Pisces: Compassionate, poetic, imaginative, lacking boundaries, delusional, fragile.

the pisces pain can be this recurring and gnawing inability to cope with present reality and the harsh world as is. emotions can feel physically painful, and the senses can be easily overstimulating. pisces can desire to be somewhere else so badly, at times feeling so exhausted they could sleep until death

Aries risings long for something lively and peaceful (Libra ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when they come on more strongly than they mean to.

Taurus risings long for something intimate and deep (Scorpio ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when they act more materialistic than they are. 

Gemini risings long for meaningful relationships and philosophical conversations (Sagittarius ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when they appear shallow and small minded. 

Cancer risings long to be protected (Capricorn ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when they always seem to be the one people come to for help.

Leo risings long to look at the bigger picture (like universal consciousness) (Aquarius ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when everything always seems to circle back to themselves. 

Virgo risings long to let go (Pisces ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when they’re always uptight.

Libra risings long for something thrilling (Aries ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when they always seem mellow and not interested.

Scorpio risings long to find something that can’t be destroyed (Taurus ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when they always seem to sabotage their relationships.

Sagittarius risings long to understand everything (Gemini ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them can’t shift their mindset or focus on the details.

Capricorn risings long to be nurtured (Cancer ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when they don’t let anyone in.  

Aquarius risings long to be adored (Leo ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when they always appear aloof and focus on others. 

Pisces risings long to be more grounded (Virgo ruling the 7th), so it can be frustrating for them when they can’t focus on reality.

what your moon sign says about you

the moon sign is so important.  it’s the first thing i want to mention to people learning about astrology, because although your chart is much like a jigsaw puzzle, your moon sign is one of the biggest pieces.  much like the sun sign, it makes up a vast amount of who you are.  your moon sign rules over your emotions, your impulses, and the deepest, most personal version of you.  your sun sign is who you are when you’re in your element, most comfortable, around the people you trust.  your moon sign is the inner workings of you every single day.  the decisions you make, the way you perceive your emotions, and your viewpoint on the world are all products of your moon sign.  so learn a bit about yourself!

☽ moon in aries ☾ : if your moon is in aries, you’re quite a character!  passionate, impulsive, and excitable, you are fast paced and see nothing as impossible!  you’re bound to have very strong emotions, be them good or bad, and you let them rule your every decision (though your decisions can hardly be called decisions; you just do what you want).  nothing is ever boring with a moon in aries around! good qualities: passionate, spontaneous, ambitious, optimistic bad qualities: impatient, moody, hot-headed, dramatic

☽ moon in taurus ☾ : if your moon is in taurus, your personality can be best described as warm.  you are affectionate, patient, and kind, and you’re a slave to routine.  you want every day to be predictable, because you’re most comfortable following a pattern!  your love for your family, close friends, and partner is gentle and unwavering, and you will stick by the people you care about through thick and thin. good qualities: kind, loyal, frugal, fair bad qualities: stubborn, materialistic, unforgiving

☽ moon in gemini ☾ : if your moon is in gemini you’re one of the most fast-paced moon signs.  sociable, funny, and friendly, you’re much like aries in your impulsiveness, but unlike the fire sign which is unwavering, you’re an ever-changing person.  you probably find yourself taking on traits of those around you, and constantly reinventing your style, because you can’t stand being the same person every day! good qualities: interesting, funny, organized, intelligent bad qualities: noncommittal, restless, rude

☽ moon in cancer ☾ : cancer moons are the most in-touch with their feelings of all the moon signs.  if your moon is in cancer, you always know what you’re feeling, and always know what the people around you are feeling as well.  you have great intuition, and that combined with your maternal nature makes you a wonderful friend, partner, and parent. good qualities: caring, empathetic, loyal, nurturing bad qualities: pessimistic, insecure, finicky, self-absorbed

☽ moon in leo ☾ : if your moon is in leo, you’re incredibly generous. you express your emotions by giving all you can to others, especially those you love. you enjoy showering those around you in gifts, compliments, and affection, but you expect to be treated the same! you love to help others, and give some of the best advice. you feel your best when surrounded by people who care about you, and probably hate being alone.  good qualities: organized, loving, generous, responsible  bad qualities: dramatic, needy, bossy, materialistic 

 ☽ moon in virgo ☾ : if your moon is in virgo, you’re obsessed with detail and simplicity all at once.  you like to keep a routine that’s to a t, but prefer to walk through life without doing anything incredible.  you’re happy just blending in with the crowd, and doing small things to make a difference!  you show your love in tiny gestures, like packing someone’s lunch or doing their laundry, and prefer not to get too sappy about it.  you’d rather not make a big splash about anything! good qualities: reliable, organized, selfless bad qualities: insecure, withdrawn, apathetic

☽ moon in libra ☾ : if your moon is in libra, you want someone by your side at all times.  you feel most comfortable when you’re in a relationship and quite insecure when you’re alone.  you usually want everything to be perfect, almost unrealistically so, and you stress a lot about the little things.  you have great social skills and likely lots of friends, and love being surrounded by them. good qualities: adaptable, charming, sympathetic bad qualities: overindulgent, indecisive, dependent to a fault

☽ moon in scorpio ☾ : if your moon is in scorpio, you’re intense in everything you do. from your interests to your relationships to what you eat for dinner, everything is a big deal. you probably like horror, mythology or astrology, and take great interest in the strange and the unknown. you have a constant thirst for excitement, and if there is none, you’ll create it. your presence is unmistakable. good qualities: passionate, charismatic, ambitious, complex bad qualities: possessive, dramatic, hot-tempered, may be disloyal

☽ moon in sagittarius ☾ : if your moon is in sagittarius, you are a free spirit. a sagittarius moon loves adventure, excitement, and change in their life. if any sign is likely to be a modern-day nomad that lives in a camper and crosses country, it’s a sagittarius moon. a sag moon living a conventional life is the type to pick you up at three a.m. to take you to mcdonald’s. they can’t stand doing things the same way twice. good qualities: fun, fast-paced, spontaneous, passionate bad qualities: irresponsible, flighty, rude, unreliable

☽ moon in capricorn ☾ : if you have a capricorn moon, you are an old soul. you’re practical and constantly striving for success, and you’re so driven that you’re bound to get where you want to be. emotions are not your strong suit, and many capricorn moons may remain single throughout their life, simply because they’d rather worry about themselves. reserved but not selfish, a cap moon is not very social. good qualities: ambitious, intelligent, logical, even-tempered bad qualities: insecure, unaffectionate, anxious

☽ moon in aquarius ☾ : if your moon is in aquarius, you march to the beat of your own drum. an aqua moon feels set apart from others, and tends to act as an outsider looking in; they don’t believe anyone can truly understand them. they’re funny, independent, and kind, and their intuition and observance makes them some of the best therapists, case workers, and even lawyers. good qualities: independent, intuitive, idealistic, funny bad qualities: egotistical, moody, distant

☽ moon in pisces ☾ : if you’re a pisces moon, you have incredible compassion that’s unmatched by any other sign. you identify with everyone in some way, because you have a sense of empathy and don’t struggle to walk in another’s shoes. you’re dreamy, optimistic, and romantic, and sometimes you lose touch with reality. you may be referred to as a “sponge”, because you soak up the emotions you’re surrounded by, and it’s easy for you to lose yourself in others’ problems, forgetting to take time to care for yourself first. good qualities: empathetic, selfless, thoughtful, idealistic bad qualities: impracticle, dependent, sensitive, may be a doormat

When I said that Pisces is everything yet nothing is because Pisces is the last sign followed by the first. Pisces is the thin line between having it all and having nothing, to exist and to vanish. To be present and absent, to be awake and to be dreaming. Pisces is the word “almost”, you feel like you have only few steps to go but yet seem to take a long time to reach them.

Constellations.

Detriment/Fall

Libra Sun is the harmonizing cheerleader, lending their mirror to exaggerate the strengths of others. They outline your best features in their finest cosmetics, and send you off with kind words and confidence in your purpose Aquarius Sun is the pioneering humanist, glowing with idealism in the lives of others. Fixed in their convictions, the float to and from their peers, landing where they may make a difference in the lives of those who need them

Capricorn Moon sees your emotions, and feels their own. Yet when it comes down to it, there is a goal to be achieved, and if their emotions don’t fit within the structure they allow them simmer under the surface so that they may build a place where they may feel freely, without judgement Scorpio Moon feels your emotions, and your emotions perpetuate their own. They burn and sizzle into embers waiting to be reignited; they will put out the fires burning within others and harbor that ember valiantly, drowning the pain in water, so that others may have the peace that they so desperately desire

Sagittarius Mercury is the preacher reciting their sermon in front of the eager crowd. There is little listening, but still there remains a sense of universal unity; they sing with the choir, and love those in the pews, but only truly listen to their God Pisces Mercury hides within the currents, elusive and fluid in their expression. Though they cannot organize their thoughts into words, they can understand your words effortlessly - knowing that your reality is the same as their reality, although distorted through the reflection of the ripples in the water

Aries Venus fights valiantly for their love, idealism seeping through their feelings for you. Quick to spark the passion of romance, they sizzle out if you do not fan their fire; but their love for you will always remain as pure as a child’s love, wishing desperately for a playmate that shares their excitement for life Scorpio Venus digs within the depths of your psyche to find the dark places that no one sees; it is uncomfortable, and ugly in expression because it has been hidden, but they will soothe the burns with their cool waters and accept those demons that you keep locked away - as long as you accept theirs

Libra Mars floats into their dreams and charms their way toward their goals; they harmonize themselves with others who embody what they want. Although uncomfortable with asserting what they want, they will surround themselves with those who want the same thing, and in their harmony with others their partnerships can bring them success Taurus Mars is not agile, nor interested in the fight that entails victory; instead, they are the tortoise, challenging the hare with their constant work and stability. They will work at their own pace to achieve, and in turn, find more satisfaction in their endeavors; they’ve done it in their own way and in their own time, never losing sight of that finish line Cancer Mars is motherly protection - an emotional outburst caused by the threat of their inner world. They defend valiantly themselves and the ones they care about, though abrupt and haphazardly; they weed out those with impure motives, scaring off the vultures with their cardinal anger so that unconditional love may permeate their lives
