yes...?

Well my Sun is heavily afflicted, 3 squares and no good aspects... SOOO... Youve nothing to be jealous about =)

I'm also a happy owner of that aspect. It's joyful and bouyant. Find it and lean on it when life isn't too good - it will always be there, regardless.

HAHAHA! Yes, Luis - Amiable It certainly does ring a bell. To be honest though, I think my sun opposite uranus placement has something to do with this for me personally - i'm usually very placid and have often ended up bad situations through not standing up for myself enough, and each time that's happened *BANG* goes sun opp uranus and there's an almighty explosion that I created to rectify the situation like a bulldozer - whatever it takes! I think the venus trine jupiter really makes things easier in terms of no matter what is going wrong, how bad things are, the optimism remains and the crux of it is that it helps you ride the tide in the knowledge there will be gold at the end of that rainbow! The difficult thing with venus trine jupiter is that in order to get the best out of the placement you have to take action and utilise it on a more a concious level, otherwise there is a danger of living in a kind of 'make believe fairy-tale bubble', which is all just a bit of an illusion. It's lovely to feel the optimism as a constant state of mind with no effort, but to to feel the kind of optimism such a placement can bring when you have gone the next mile and over - ridden the lazy tendencies that this aspect can give, really puts you onto a winning streak, with truly delicious rewards, that are tangible not only to you, but to others too. It's an aspect that's all to easily used half heartedly, which is a real shame.

I am going to Venus trine Jupiter in my next solar return

I am also going to have sun trine moon in my next solar return. I have sun trine Moon natally. I am actually going to have lunar return on same day as my solar return. It's going to be a highly significant year period.

I'd rather have a Moon-Sun trine, since the will and emotions are more in balance, and the parents are more likely to have been in love when the person was born, giving them a better message about life and relationships. Not necessarily, but it is more likely. They are generally happier people.

I think that it really depends on what else is aspecting that aspect

using whole sign house system (I have permanently switched to it):
I have 12th house ruler Sun in Scorpio in 3rd trine 11th house ruler Moon in Pisces in 7th with 2'10 orb

but the opposition of my retrograde 5th/6th house ruler Saturn in Gemini 10th and 4th/7th house rulerJupiter-Neptune conjunction in Sagittarius in 4th squares the Moon - a t-square

My Saturn quincunx my Sun and square my Moon for what Magi Society calls a mystic triangle which is a 12th harmonic triangle.


so the Sun trine Moon is modified with great,significant challenges. Therefore, the innate sense of balance and equilibrium isn't necessarily the case with me. The same with the whole easy and harmony thing. If anything, I can have great unrest,instability,stress, and that's how I experienced my mother too.


I don't like reading cookbooks about certain aspects because they don't take other aspects into account.

as for the relationship of my parents.
Well, my parents did love each other.
interestingly, they both had Moon in watersign. My mother has Moon in Scorpio,and my father had Moon in Pisces like my maternal grandfather and me.
I grew up only knowing one parent,and that was my mother. My father left when I was a year old,and he disappeared without a trace.
My stepfather replaced my father as my father figure,and he's the only one that I ever knew. There was no real love between my him and my mother. It was a marriage of convenience, and my stepfather was 25 years older than my mother. He was abusive to both my mother and me. She was married to him for 12 years, and she ended up breaking up with him when I was 18 years old.
Stuff like that makes me wary about getting married to the wrong person, but I do want to be married and have children in the future.
