Sun in Leo, in the Sixth
There are many information-rich posts waiting to be written. But I want to do a good job, so, of course, I procrastinate. In the meantime, I sent a message to my friend Evelyn Roberts and the subject line read, “Confessions of an Astro Nerd.” What a good title for a blog post, I says to myself. So here are some of mine. Send me some of your and I’ll add them to this post.
- My Moon is in Scorpio. In its fall. I don’t care. I love my intense Moon. Intensely, of course.
- My Venus falls in Virgo. I think I’m envious of people with a strong, happy Venus. Okay, I might be jealous of them. Fine, I’m jealous!
- When I look at someone’s chart, anyone’s, the first thing I see is how it links with mine. I have a friend whose axes are so strongly connected to mine that I have difficulty getting past that and actually seeing her chart.
- The nodes of the Moon fascinate me. I don’t know why. I suspect it is because my natal chart has Mars conjunct the south node and Moon conjunct the North.
- There are two kinds of people in the world for me: astrologers and non-astrologers. I’ve recently heard the latter referred to as “civilians,” and “muggles.” I like using “civilians.”
- Astrology proves the existence of a greater design. Of a Higher Mind. Think about it a bit, it proves the existence of a Higher Force. ::She whispers, “Of God.”::
- There’s enough Virgo-Scorpio in me to find a good use for everything. Even my grief. You’d think I love astrology so much because it’s so useful. Nope. I just love it. It’s the only love in my life that’s inexplicable.
- I know one of the purposes of my life is to promote astrology. I’ve got enough Jupiter to do it, too. Yeehaw!
- I did my masters in psychology and I agree with Dr. Glenn Perry that psychology and astrology need to combine.
- I fantasize about a place where everyone is dressed in white robes. It’s a university. (It’s a planet, actually. But I didn’t want to say that.) And where astrology and healing are taught. I want to go there. It’s probably my Neptune in the ninth in Sagittarius.
P.S. I love you.
P.P.S. When I wrote this, Tr Moon was exactly conjunct my natal Moon.
Sweeet!
That is a truly Saggitarian dream – a university with white robes…do you think you were in Ancient Greece perhaps?
I have Neptune in the 9th too and in Saggitarius, I just finished reading a book about Mythology. It fascinates me to no end.
And as I studied Psychology at University I couldn’t stop thinking how Astrology would be such a fantastic helping tool.
Hi DM,
Dr. Glenn Perry and Dr. Richard Tarnas teach astrology. Michael Lutin is an astrologer who studied communicative psychoanalytic psychotherapy so that he could add counseling skills to his work as an astrologer. Donna Cunningham is a MSW (she studied at Columbia) and a fine astrologer. Jeffery Kishner studied psychology at Cornell and CIIS and is one of the younger astrologers. May their tribe grow!
Funny that you ask about Greece. I’ve often wondered. It may have been Rome though: I’m too decadent to be Greek!
Love,
Neeti
love this! I’m a Scorpio Sun, Scorpio Moon, Scorpio Mars and Scorpio Pluto in the eight house! I also have a Venus in Virgo. And Jupiter in Virgo(6th house). Do you do chart readings? I’m almost 18 and I’m deeply considering studying psychology.
In Spain there are many shops where psychology meets astrology. I hope it gets popular here in the U.S as well.

It’s not a fantasy. This is the soul memory of the “time before”, of before you came into this existence. It is probably where we, and all the other astrologers first met, the school where those with an especial talent for parsing the stars went for our first and our continuing lessons. It is why when we meet an another astrologer there is a sense of recognition, that somehow we know this person.
Sssshhh, don’t tell the other children. Most don’t remember this at all.
That explains why I love you all so much. Because I do. Love you all so much.
Terry cloth?
Or silk. Whatever feels best.
Happy lunar return fellow nerd! Oh, I popped you onto my blogroll… no idea why I didn’t have you there earlier! Much love.
Thank you! Been reading your blog and enjoying it: it nice to see you’re posting more often. Much love back!
