Your “Big 3”
- Rising (Ascendant): Leo (≈ 9°)
How you come across: warm presence, strong “don’t-mess-with-me” dignity, leadership vibe. People tend to notice you. You’re built to show up, even when you’re running on fumes. - Sun: Cancer (≈ 19°) in the 12th house
Your core self is protective, loyal, and emotionally deep — but private. The 12th house placement often shows someone who needs solitude to recharge, feels things that other people miss, and can carry other people’s weight without realizing it.
Lay translation: soft heart, strong shell — and you need quiet time or you start absorbing everyone’s weather. - Moon: Gemini (≈ 15°) in the 11th house
Your emotional system processes through thinking, talking, writing, learning. You regulate by connecting with people, ideas, and community (11th house = friends/networks/future plans).
Lay translation: when you’re overwhelmed, your mind wants movement—conversation, research, “let me figure this out.”
The social/network signature (this is loud in your chart)
You have Moon + Venus + Mercury clustered in the 11th house (friends, groups, community, long-term goals).
- Mercury in Cancer (11th): you communicate with care and instinct; you read subtext; you remember.
- Venus in Gemini (11th): relationships need mental spark, humor, friendship-first energy; you’re drawn to clever, lively people.
Lay translation: you’re not meant to rebuild alone. Your wiring is “network + ideas + belonging,” not isolation.
Home/family axis (also loud)
- Mars in Sagittarius (4th house): you protect your home base fiercely, but you also need freedom inside it. Restlessness can show up as “I need space / I need to move / I need a fresh start.”
- Neptune in Scorpio (4th house): deep sensitivity in the family/home story; sometimes blurred boundaries, sometimes “emotional fog.” You need a home environment that feels safe, honest, and calm.
Lay translation: your nervous system has a “home” story. When home-life is unstable, everything gets harder. When home-life is grounded, you’re dangerous (in a good way).
Work/calling
- Midheaven (MC): Aries (≈ 24°)
Career direction: builder-starter energy. You do best when you can initiate, lead, decide, and move. - Saturn in Taurus (10th house): reputation built slowly and solidly. You’re the “show up every day” guy. You care about doing it right, being dependable, and being taken seriously.
Lay translation: you’re a long-game worker with a pioneer headline.
Your mind: skill, systems, and problem-solving
A heavy 3rd-house emphasis (thinking/communication/trade skills):
- Jupiter in Virgo (3rd): growth through practical skills, service, fixing problems, learning-by-doing.
- Pluto in Virgo (3rd): deep scanner mind—research, intensity, pattern-detection.
- Uranus in Libra (3rd) conjunct Jupiter: sudden insights, unconventional solutions, “I see the angle nobody else sees.”
Lay translation: you’re a systems guy. When life collapses, you start mapping and rebuilding—because that’s how your brain survives.
Key “headline aspects” (the strongest wiring patterns)
- Jupiter conjunct Uranus: independent thinker, breakthroughs, hates feeling boxed-in.
- Venus opposite Mars: push-pull between closeness and freedom; attraction to lively friction; needs balance (friendship + autonomy).
- Mercury sextile Saturn: practical communicator—good at policies, boundaries, structured writing, contracts.
- Sun sextile Pluto: resilience + “rebuild from the rubble” signature (yes, that one fits).
- Jupiter sextile Neptune: idealism with practical legs—spiritual meaning and real-world improvement.
