Yeah, NESSUS conjunct NESSUS is par for the course, when you're less than a few years apart. That's just keeping it within 0º-1º orb, too.

I have a close friend who has Nessus conjunct her MC exact. To the minute. I've seen this play outin two ways.

First is a very literal translation of this asteroid. She was raped by a young man in college. She woke up to him raping her. She took this experience & is now very focus on women's rights, rape culture, etc. she is currently wrapping up higher ed with a goal is to counsel women who have been raped or sexually abused.

However! She sees everything as abuse. Everything. It's as if she is obsessed with abuse, especially rape. I can't have a conversation with her at times, without her turning my words into some kind of weird abusive thing, where I'm having to stop and say "sweetie, no I was not a victim here, I'm not even talking about an abusive situation!"

When I first met her, she told me the whole story of her rape & how sexual abuse runs in her family. I thought this was strange to tell someone upon meeting them but I have that effect on people. A few months later I introduced her to a friend of mine, within 2 hours she was doing the same "abuse story" thing. Like this is something she does to gain a sense of notoriety. It's super weird.

I've sense distanced myself from her bc this aspect, in combination with her Scorpio Asc & my ascendant sitting smack dab in the middle of her Sun/Moon conjunctiom became just WAY too weird for me. I was raped & it was as if she unconsciously loved that I was.

I think the MC/NESSUS is her 'high profile' connexion to abuse. As to the rape -- are you sure she doesn't have DEJANIRA (157) in close aspect to a personal point?

DEJA-BML (0º) for me is, I think, largely responsible for my developing a very Lilith personality in response to abuse -- especially a history involving sexual abuse as well.

As a quick edit: I just read that you were, too. I'm sorry to hear that. I wish it wasn't as prevalent as it is. And yet, the chances are high that just about every woman is likely to experience some form of sexual abuse by the age of 20. This shouldn't be the world in which we live.
