I've read that it can indicate a writer and twelfth house suns prefer some other form of communication other than speaking. It's the idea of filtering. IP: Logged |

Exactly, it's the secret house.Thoughs and talents are in a higher level there, expressed through arts usually. For example if you have both Sun and Venus in the 12th house it can be a person who's talented both in music and lyrics. IP: Logged |

Oh yes, Mercury. Hah. Twelfth house sun could be included, too, but Mercury is the one that likes to communicate through some kind of filter from twelve, whether it be written, visual symbols like in paintings and other art, sign language, dancing, even composing music, or film making. A twelfth house sun and Mercury, together, would be someone who is quite content to be on their own doing things their way. Their soul wishes to express itself from behind the veil.

Only if Sun is deposited by Mercury = so the native could be expected to identify themselves with Mercurian themes, case in point - writing - . I agree that water house Suns are content on their own. IP: Logged |

Well, mine is, since Virgo is on the cusp, Mercury is inside conjunct ascendant and the sun conjuncts the cusp.

I've found that people with aspects between Mercury and Neptune are capable of being very convincing liars. IP: Logged |

I work(ed) as a journalist for (mostly women's) magazines & national newspapers. I like hardcore news stories (but in depth), but it's hard to pinpoint my 'subjects' if that's what you are asking cause it will go from heavy human interest stories till "fab interior styling". I'm basically allround. IP: Logged |

If it makes any aspect to neptune/mercury/sun it's very good  It's interesting that you have a virgo moon and gemini mars, but they are almost aspected… but just having the signs, could indicate that your language is well developed and you are good with words. Sun/neptune wide conjunction is very favorable for bringing out your creativity… when it is in sag it could also indicate other areas than writing, such as music, drama, movies I would think
My Venus is libra@19...8 degrees from sextile to Neptune and conjunct Pluto....45 degrees from saggy sun/merc, that's not much of an aspect! Lol...what is that a semi square?  IP: Logged |

Since early childhood I always wanted to be a writer. But I never really focused on it. I kept telling to myself "one day, when the conditions are right I will sit for the book" I have a very active, restless mind, full with fantasies, ideas, scenarios.. People say about me "she is living like a writer" My friends say I am a writer who does not write. It's not like I do not write at all, I do. My close pals read them, and they curse me, yell at me and beg me to sit for a book. One day I will and I hope soon. Here are some of my aspects :Sun conjunct Mercury Capricorn (4deg) Mercury sextile Jupiter Pisces (3deg) Mercury opposite Saturn Cancer (7deg) Mercury conjunct Venus Capricorn (8deg) Mercury semisextile Neptune Sag (1deg) Mercury square Pluto Libra (0deg) Sun sextile Uranus Scor (3deg) Uranus conjunct MC (0deg) Moon Gem inconjunct Mercury (0deg) Moon Gem oppose Neptune (1deg) and some other.. please let me know if you need house placements as well. Also, would love to hear your opinions on my aspects on writing. Other than my aspects, I do not think Mercury square Neptune will be sufficient enough to be a good writer unless it is supported by a square or opposition from Saturn. Without it maybe a good poet..

I know someone with Mercury opposite Neptune and she could probably get a bizarre romance book or some strange chick fiction published if she tried. She mostly writes short stories for her own and friends's entertainment. Nothing serious. She is a vivid fantasist.IP: Logged |

I was reading a Marion Zimmer Bradley writing somewhere, and she said she was against Fantasy Role Playing Games because she didn't trust that. Why weren't they at home with their tail on the chair writing about it? Yes, she had Mercury Square Neptune, which is Conjunct Moon (maybe) and MidHeaven. Wide orb, though. Major Mercury; Sun in Gemini/Moon in Virgo.
So, yes; her MidHeaven was Virgo, Neptune as well. Neptune in Virgo, how close can the two get? Funny how she had Saturn Domicile, yet all came down to a Circle of Dispositors: Mercury in Taurus Venus in Cancer Moon in Virgo. They do say that Moon in the tenth denotes fame, or at least life in the public eye. I miss Her.

Oh, they were both Angular as well.Mercury on the Descendent and Neptune on the MidHeaven. Oh, by the way; NextToNeptune, would you like me to give you a Natal Report here? http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum11/HTML/009055.html I already have your chart.

You sound a bit eccentric.. I could imagine with your sun sextile uranus… and you have very good aspect from sun-mercury and from mercury-venus, so expression through words could be easy for you… the moon opposition neptune is interesting too, helps with imagination and feelings, and you also have a lot of water as I see it…It could be nice to know what your mars is doing actually, and your jupiter too, and maybe your ascendant:P If your mars touches mercury too I could be afraid that you might be a bit too much about the facts, and not fiction Jupiter tells about your luck in these area, and expansion, and it is really good to have mercury sextile jupiter also… but is jupiter touching venus or moon? I think it could add some warmth or maybe even optimism…without it you could be a great dry capricorn though… As I see it you could have potential in this field, but I have to see your whole chart to be sure about it IP: Logged |

nexttoneptune@ thank you so much for analyzing my aspects. Yes, I am an eccentric but not a flashy one I am quite witty, I have a dark sense of humour and irony makes me laugh.

i dont know how other people would react to my writings ,but i do like writing (my problem is that i take loooong time brakes because i lack will to simply raise a pen,imagination never lacks though,i am allways inspired) I have leo asc,sun in gemini,mars in virgo,mercury conjuncting venus in gemini who trine my uranus in cap and sextile my ascendant ,moon in pisces and so on,all this indicates that i should be good in writing,and i do belive i am good,but i dont dare sharing it with others. I have also fashion blogg,i write in English wich is not my native language,i just prefere it - through blogg i am earning money (not much,but one day i hope i can buy myself shoes from it lol) In my books ,in my stories actually main characters are allways women,family backstories are important to me,i like to put them through hardships and depression and so on,so my stories are far from being romantic and easy - in each story i put peaces of my own reality, my family problems,family and friends personalities often find their way to the stories,also my experiences and emotions ,toughts about social,political and historical questions too - but i never put them sll together in one story,only bits and peaces IP: Logged |
