Some basic information about me:
I go by she/her/hers pronouns. I am in my mid to late teens. In tropical astrology, I am a Virgo Sun, Capricorn Moon, and Aquarius Rising. In sidereal astrology, I am a Leo Sun, Sagittarius Moon, and Capricorn Ascendant. If we add in Vedic nakshatras here, I have Magha Sun, Mula Moon, and Uttara Ashadha Ascendant.

My favorite color is black. My hobbies are reading, writing, playing the piano, and trying to make astrology observations.

So you listed some of your strongest Signs, but having been at this astro thing for a rather long time, what is more interesting and telling is often a person's strongest Planets.

For example, I have a Cap Sun, Leo Rising, barely Libra Moon, Aqua Venus, and with a Mars Jupiter conjunction in Virgo along with N. Node and Saturn (ruler of Sun and Mercury Signs) also in Virgo.

But Jupiter is retrograding back into my 1st House and is the Planet closest to my ASC. Hence, Jupiter is a particularly highlighted Planet in this chart (this general pattern repeats in various ways, such as the ruler of the 9th is conjunct Jupiter, Angular Pisces South Node, ruler of the Sign that Jupiter is in is trine Jupiter within about .5 degree of separation, etc).

In many ways, strong Jupiter describes the more deeper and consistent parts of self than Cap, Leo, Libra, etc.

We have a Vedic Astrology forum here too.
Not too much traffic there-- as many are struggling beginners, like me.

Some of us here are bi-lingual as far as Tropical Zodiac, and the Sidereal is concerned.

This is the next level of astrology after learning about and focusing on Signs. Anyways, what about yourself? What Planet(s) are most highlighted in your chart?

I don't remember what is tropical astrology versus sidereal astrology. Is your sun sign Virgo according to the so-called "familiar" western system? (Meaning: were you born between the end of August and the first two thirds of September?)
Your hobbies are similar to mine, though it has been years since I played the piano. I used to, though, as a teen, and also took singing classes. What music do you like to play?
There is a creativity forum here, For Yellow Wax And The Ants, and of course you're welcome to share there some of your writings if you so wish..
Until later

The planet most highlighted in my chart is definitely Uranus. It is in my first house (second house in whole signs), my tropical ascendant is in Aquarius, and it opposes my Sun, Mercury, and Mars alongside a sextile to my Moon.

Thanks for the explanation. Yep, you definitely sound like a Uranian extremist type fo sho.

You may find some of the Edgar Cayce excerpts about Uranus to be somewhat interesting (taken from multiple psychic readings).

quote:

---

"In Uranus we find the extremes. Thus the entity in spiritual, in mental, and in material things finds periods when it as to the mountaintops and again in the depths of despair." Excerpted from Reading 3706-2

"From the Uranian influences we find the extremist. And these tendencies... will develop especially through the early teen age years, when there will be moods and...wonderments... These [Uranian tendencies] make for also the intuitive influences and the abilities for the development in the very psychic forces of the entity." Excerpted from Reading 1206-3

"In the urges from the astrological aspects we find Mercury, Uranus, Venus, and Jupiter as the influences through the entity has received an awareness.
One of high mental ability, yet one very extreme in many ways. Oft...too easily discouraged. Hence....it will require that the entity set a purpose and a goal, and not be deterred from same." Excerpted from Reading 2572-1

"Those of exceptional abilities with the Uranian influence may be well said to be mean exceptional abilities to err, or to be led astray in the direction not best for... self's development" Reading 38-1

"...for with the entity under these influences, with the exceptional conditions as come from influences of Uranus, we find the entity's manifestations in the present plane will be exceptionally good or very bad." 143-1

(For a very young child) "The entity is not only a Uranian but an Atlantean, and the combination will be something to deal with! As to temper, as to having it's way; for it will have it's way irrespective, for the first fourteen years... As for the aspects in the Uranian influence, we find the extremes. The entity will be at times very beautiful in character--at others very ugly; very beautiful in body and mind--at others the other extreme. For these have an influence, and the entity will be an extremist through the first fourteen years of it's experience.
High mental abilities. One will that make a study of how to have it's own way...do not break the will...rather give the lesson by precept and example." 1958-1

"In the Uranian influence...the extremes... For their will be periods, natural to a Uranian, when for a few hours or a few minutes or a few days it will be very, very morose...These will arise...out of nowhere..." 2005-1

"In...the Uranian influences...periods when there seems to be every condition imaginable awry--whether business relations, social relations, financial conditions--every condition seems awry. Again, there are seasons of, most things come too easy." 5-2

It results from the Expanded self level rolling together a Soul from a very contrasting and different set of energies/memories/patterns from other Souls and lifetimes within it's database.

One set of energies is very fast vibratory, loving, spiritualized.

The other set is very slow vibratory i.e. very ego, selfish, materialistic, etc related.

They don't get "blended together" like in Venus, but stand as warring, contrasting levels and extremes within.

Hence the tendency towards extremes and swinging from one far end of the pendulum to the other far end. In that sense, there is something a bit bipolar like about Uranus and very strong Uranian attunement.

Edgar Cayce himself, was a predominant Uranian, who had it conjunct his ASC. Boy did he fit it to a t. That combined with his powerful Pisces, strong Neptune and Jupiter, he was very psychic, but he was a personality prone to extremes. For example, he really liked movies. So he would go out multiple times over a period (over doing it), and then go long periods of not going at all. He was like this in many areas, went from one extreme to another.

Towards the latter half of his life, with the help of meditation, prayer, spiritual attunement, being part of a positive service oriented group, etc, he eventually started to stabilize, balance and become more centered. He was using his free/spiritual will to change from Uranus to something else. But not completely, as his extremest tendencies led to his own death. His guidance recommended only 2 readings to be given a day because of his increasingly frail health, but he was literally was receiving bags of mail constantly from the height of WW2 to near its end, and he felt burdened by not being able to get to all the people suffering and asking for help. (So he gave multiple and worked himself eventually to death).

Anyways, the Expanded/Original self level, chooses to create a Uranian attuned Soul (mini, self aware, freewilled extention of itself) for the purpose of balance and becoming more aware of, and attempting to integrate, its shadow side. With the hopes to take those slow vibratory patterns and speed them up so that we can reach "escape velocity" as Bob Monroe coined it.

And what does "escape velocity" lead to?

To our true destiny and purpose. To become Co-Creators with the Source and the Oneness of the Whole of other realities, other Universes, and other Expanded selves to grow up in same. Artists and musicians beyond compare, weaving structure, form, harmony, vibration, into a raw consciousness state, creating ever more unique creations and expanding the creational process. Why, because its enjoyable. Feels dang good to create from a space/place of Love.

House systems: So far I lean to a combo of equal house combined with placidius. I see the cusps of placidius to be sensitive areas, worth paying attention to, but also see some merit to the equal house system. And since its so important, I always give the 1st House a full 30 degrees no matter what.

But I can't say that I have that aspect/area all completely figured out. I'm open to revision. I got into this whole thing back in 93'. But am not as old as I probably sound. (40).

In Synastry, I have noted that Planetary connections don't even need to be within typical orbs. Often times, especially with same and opposite Sign connections, just being in those same and opposite Signs is enough.

I haven't known too many people with Venus conjunct Saturn, but I fell in love with a woman with same about a year and half ago, and good lord she has all sorts of walls and defenses around her heart.
