We did this with each other a while back, varoom, so I will let someone else have a turn with your fascinating chart.

I've never had mine done on a tribe before and I'd love to hear another opinion of my chart messiness.

exio, haven't I done yours before..?

Exio

I don't think I've done your chart before, have I?
Gonna give it quick my quick interpretation! Feel free to reciprocate if you get time.

As I've said to others, I put a lot of focus on elemental balances. Just cos I've noticed that they work.

You've absolutely no earth.
This might suggest that you are less 'at home' with menial tasks, material details and with the handling of money and resources generally. I am often convinced that we over compensate for our missing elements. Perhaps you obsess to some level on these things. I know of one guy with no earth who works for the police (typically earth type of job) and obsesses about money and wealth, suggesting he has very little of it despite being relatively well paid. A quick look at his financial habits reveal that he handles his money improperly, despite having a good capricorn wife who would happily look after it for him if he let her! There is then, the fear of instability and so you may cling strongly to your roots or to your possessions. Because the earth element is not plugged into your psyche in the average way, there is the suggestion that it acts somewhat irrationally in your life. Perhaps you feel that your financial situation is strained. YOu may over compensate and work doubly hard or horde money/possessions/food in order to compensate for that. I've often also noticed in men particularly with no earth, that there is a need to make sure the fridge is fully stocked and the wood for winter well cut etc. There is a fear of lacking physical resources.
I normally look to Saturn to see how the earth element is being used, saturn being particularly earthy. Luckily it is making a moon square which should add more roots and containment. Unfortunately you may also feel that your needs are not being met or that your emotional desires and needs are unable to be expressed properly. You may also be a bit of a workaholic. You may be sentimental or nostalgic and it is likely that there are emotional situations from the past which still affect you today, perhaps some unresolved relationships or emotional patterns. The Moon is also square the Sun, alluding, for me, to a difficulty in your parents marriage or between your understanding of each parent. Perhaps your parents are divorced or seperated or there was some arguments or disagreements. Coupled with the Moon-Saturn square it is likely that you grew up with a negative understanding of yourself, and perhaps your emotional needs were over-looked by your parents who were, to some degree, too busy with their own problems.
Perhaps because of this, you feel that your childhood was in some way 'robbed' from you. You may be looking now to reclaim that side of you. You may have had to grow up too quicly, and now that you are grown up, you may want to reconnect with childhood and find the lighter side of life. Your Moon is in Leo, and there is that childlike need for attention and creative expression that may not have been devleoped in childhood, but can now be developed in adulthood.
Your lack of earth, coupled with the Moon conjunct Mars, suggests a certain degree of impulsive behaviour and over-excitability. You may not be known for your patience and may be even a little selfish when it comes to your desires and needs. YOu want them now! Unfortunately these things aren't the most objective of placements and there is likely to be a certain degree of subjective over sensitive opinion of other's opinions or even their desires and needs when in competition or contradiction to your own. The conjunction occurring in the 7H, along with Saturn, suggests that there is some issue here with relationships. A 7H moon suggests the need for relating to others (especially with a venus in libra). There may, at worst, be a sense that the partner should satisfy these desires, and perhaps there is a failing to compromise your own feelings and desires so that you can satisfy your partners also. There is a certain sense of "but what about me" with this placement. There is, therefore, a need to integreate your own needs and desires with that of your partner and to ensure that your desires and feelings do not occlude those of your partner, otherwise relationships will certainly fail. This is further made difficult by the Moon-Saturn square which suggests, of course, that your needs and desires are not being fully realised!
You do have it in you however to harmonise this conflict, particularly so with Venus in Libra. Some inner adjustments will need to be made before you can make them in the outer world with your partner.

Your chart ruler, Uranus, is making a number of aspects in the chart, particularly the square to this moon-mars conjunction, suggesting that this conjunct gets charged in great bursts. You may come across aloof and detached, but this hides your much more highly subjective viewpoints and desires. You may come across as being somewhat above it all, but your inner self still really needs to be attended to, your Moon is in Leo, you need a certain degree of attention, especially for your self-worth, which may have been over-looked throughout your life. This creates a bit of conflict. You come across as being emotionally aloof, but in reality you need a great deal of emotional attention.

Uranus making a square to mars is suggestive of pouring your energies into humanitarian efforts, however it also brings with it a sense of unreliability with it, particularly so with a lack of earth in the chart to ground the lightning strike of Uranus. Ultimately there may be some kind of tension or struggle with asserting yourself in a way that is not aggressive or argumentative. Perhaps you have known periods where your anger or temper appears to erupt erratically. There may be some kind of fear of your own power, or a feeling that you are not in control of your own life (again backed up by the no earth). As a result you may feel that you need to keep yourself on a tight leash or tighten your grip on your life and on your passions. You may need to find ways of expressing your creative ability and channeling your anger without losing control of yourself.
Uranus also makes a square to the Moon which just adds to the emotional reactions of everything said above. There is a need and tension between needing security, and in needing freedom. Together, the Uranus square to the Moon/Mars combo (particularly in Leo) suggests that you feel that there is some 'right' to take control and have your own desires met. There isn't. Co-operation may need to be learned and it may be a difficult lesson. Taking it on the chin and admitting when you are wrong may also be difficult in your close relationships.
In short, there is a need to learn to compromise in your close and intimate relationships, otherwise you will find that cirumstance is such that your close relationships appear to fail. You may feel that your partner is not attentive to your needs or that she doesn't seem to care enough about you. Ultimately this is something that is being projected on the partner (as often happens with the seventh house) and is actually that your own inner needs and desires are not being met, but that it is not the responsibility of your partner to meet them. You need to find ways of expressing your needs and desires and fulfilling them independantly without expecting your partner to do it on your behalf. Unfortunately with Mars here too, and in Leo, one of these desires is sexual and perhaps sexual needs have been an issue in the past with your partner. Mars in leo is a particularly powerful placement sexually in a man's chart and the square to Uranus and conjunction to the moon suggests that your sexual desires are not merely desires but 'needs' and also that they may seem somewhat unconventional. There may be some kind of fetishes that feature for example, or attraction to bisexuality or some other sexual 'out of the norm', although perhaps the mars-moon conjunction in a man's chart limits this to some level.

Welcome to the nuthouse, myzil! I hope you enjoy yourself.

my birth data is 11/07/1989 10:53 Plainview, New York just incase you wanna use I different house system or something than the one I used :)

Hey Bobo I am going to take a look at your chart now and see what I come up with buddy:).

I don't think you've got any communication problems. It's more about Mercury being in the 6th house... the house of criticization, and especially self-criticization (apparently, I made up the word "criticization", but you know what I mean). And Pluto's a little critical, too. My best advice on that one is to not worry about it too much, and to realize that most everyone's got difficulty in really, truly communicating. If you stop being overly critical about how you communicate, you'll likely look around you and see that there's a general discomfort in people when it comes to communication. Then (maybe) you'll feel a little better about you're own ability to communicate. Pluto wants compassion.

But... there's an area in you're chart that's very interesting, also involving Mercury. Neptune's also there... Virgo's opposite, and just as critical. if not moreso. And Uranus is tied into that, too. Yeah... you communicate strangely. All the outer planets aspecting Mercury. But that's fine. You've got something to say. Say it. Some will understand, some won't. C'est la vie.

Volodya

I pay particular attention to things like the elemental balance. It's just my personal style.
With that in mind I notice a couple of interesting things.
You are strong in the yin elements of earth and water, but have fewer yang elements of fire and air.
In fact you have a singleton in each of the latter elements:
Sun in Aries is your only fire element
Mars in Aquarius is your only air element.
You'll notice here of course that Mars disposits your sun and both are singletons which adds some focus to them! And the two are also closely sextile.

There is a strong need here to do your own thing and express yourself freely. Mars in Aquarius is very much a placement that wants to express itself in its own way, in a unique one-of-a-kind kind of way, and so too is the sun in aries. People may consider your methods to be a bit odd-ball, but there is a curious method to your madness. Both placements have a peculiar ability to ensure that they get their own way, and although Aries is known to blow up in temper and throw its dolls out of the pram, the aquarian mars should cool this temper considerably, however having your ideas contradicted or outright denied may still cause that temper to burst to the surface. Be careful of thinking that because you feel yourself more unique or charismatic, that your way is the right way. Culture humility. The mercury-neptune trine should certainly help that.
Because you need to do things your own way, you may make life more difficult for yourself by deliberately doing something in an unconventional manner in an effort to assert your sense of uniqueness. It is also likely that, although not incapable of commitment, chances are you will likely 'play the field' for some time. There is a distinct dislike for being 'tied down' to someone. With that Aquarian Mars, you may be lead toward something which is sexually considered taboo or shocking. Your sex appeal, or sexual nature, may be considered forward thinking or just 'out there'. Perhaps there is a touch of bisexuality to you (don't take offence if this is not true, just a consideration). Behind all your more overt sexuality is an inner need to feel safer and more secure, and paradoxically a need to sort of 'lose yourself' in your lover or indeed in love itself (with venus in 4H Pisces).

Going back to your comments;
"I have a T-square with Mercury op. Pluto square my nodes"

When considering T-Squares I would normally not include the nodes. However even if you wanted to, because Mercury-Pluto opp would square BOTH the south node AND the north node, it would be a T-Square in any event.

"I know I have some difficult aspects that get in the way of my communication to others, memory, learning."

Exio has already mentioned this. I woudln't necessarily say that you have aspects which diminish your ability to communicate. A 6H Mercury is somewhat critical, and perhaps this is what you're feeling. Being in taurus, this Mercury suggests a need for a slow and steady approach to learning and to communication. Some backward astrology books might suggest that Mercury in taurus describes someone who is a little mentally slow and to some extent this is true, in that the Taurus mercury likes to know what its saying before it says it and in comparison to a gemini mercury is a little less quick-witted, but its NOT true to suggest that a Taurus Mercury is somehow stupid or thick. It just learns a little slower, but once learned it normally doens't need to learn it again. In contradiction to your more outgoing self, this sixth house mercury is a little more 'structured' or at the very worst tunnel-visioned. At best issues pertaining to health, hygiene, systems and sciences will be a natural for you. At worst all you'll notice is how 'wrong' particular systems, food types, hygience etc is, taken to an extreme you may become obsessed by hygiene and other 6H issues, particularly with that Pluto opposition. Be careful here. Mercury in the 6H, particularly with Pluto opp, might be indicative of psychosomatic illness and ill-health because of poor thought patterns or incorrect thinking. You've an amazing knack at seperating the bad eggs from the good ones. Use this discrimination lightly when you apply it to yourself. Let your body tell you what it needs don't force it because you ideologically think it SHOULD need or want certain things. You may also find that you are 'fussy' in some way with food stuff, though its difficult to tell. Perhaps there's some food types that you either are deficient in or that you are allergic to or choose not to eat etc.

You've also an interesting trine between Venus and Pluto, interesting because venus rules the sixth house and the only planet in the sixth is opposition to Pluto. Venus is also in Pisces, and your 6H Planet (mercury) is trine Neptune. I just like looking for things that connect up the chart and notice things like this (must be my gemini connect-the-dots brain). I mentinoed this briefly above. Your Mars is more aloof and needs freedom and space, but your venus needs unconditional love and compassion. There is a possibility here that you feel that no one person can offer you the love that you need nor match the love you feel for them, and so you may feel that you have been sacrficed on altar of relationships. Your compassionate nature may make you more attracted to people who have that soft-eyed heart-on-the-sleeve emotinally vulnerable type. This would play off your Aries Sun of course, and the need to defend the underdog and rescue the 'princess'. On a more sexual nature this Venus, particularly by being in pisces and trine Pluto, may show an attraction toward the inequality of power. Perhaps sexual power games ensue.

I hope some of this is accurate. I always like to stress that we all have free-will and if you dislike anything I've said here, then just make the point of not becoming that person. You're still quite young so perhaps some of it won't really resonate yet.
Let me know.

I'll give a few random points Gabby, don't really have the time for a full interpretation. The Aquarius Ascendent shows you as very upfront and objective (though I can see this from your profile pic anyway). Mercury right on the MC in Sag, a powerful communicator, particularly in public settings, though with a serious sense of quality to your words (only way I can describe the Jupiter-in-Libra-close-to Saturn sextile to Merc.) Your powerful focus (Sag Sun) is fogged up by the presence of Neptune, making career choices confusing (10th house.)
Sextiling 8th house Pluto may play into this, lending an extreme sense of life or death urgency to these matters.
12th house Late Cap Moon: quite comfortable with some serious ambiguity, Mars gives this placement some drive, Pluto adds difficulty with extremes.
A little piecemeal but should cover the basics.

My interpretation, for what its worth!

You have an over abundance of air planets, and a singleton in earth.
This singleton, Venus, is particularly important. It is your only earth planet, and it is also the ruler of your descendant. It is also conjunct your south node and is the significator. Its further significance is found in noting that it disposits all those 12thHouse Planets.

Venus therefore can be said to be the focus of a great deal of energy.
Looking at the aspect grid, we see that Venus square quite a considerable number of 'important' planets. Particularly it is closely square Saturn, but also square the Moon, Pluto, and Mars. Pluto and Mars being the Chart ruler, and all of which are diposited by Venus itself. Venus then is disposited by Saturn, Saturn is diposited by Venus in a mutual reception and both are square.

Rather than going through all the venus squares individually it would be enough to suggest that the venus squares are indicative of intense emotional struggles (particularly to Pluto) and may indicate feelings of jealousy, emotional trauma, intense emotional upheavel, there may be an intense need for a partner (backed up by all that 12H Libra energy and that venus rules the descendant) and there is the possibility that internal emotional battles get projected onto the partner and experienced through them.
There is a dynamic here between the airy intellectual 'above it all' attitude of the Aquarius Sun and Libran Moon (who are the extemities of the bowl chart and therefore important) and smooth aspect between them and all the air energy in the chart. There is the feeling of being above such petty emotional problems and attitudes, and yet, there, stuck in teh middle, is your poorly aspected Venus causing all sorts of mischief.
The liklihood is that these emotional traumas and dramas will be experienced through the partner, either your own internal issues being projected onto the partner, or the attraction to a partner who will trigger off these things, or, if you prefer, that it is the partner that is at fault, and you, of course, are innocent. There is a sense with Libra that any coarse or disruptive emotional energy is not 'becoming' of them, and aquarius likes to 'blink away' any emoitonal distress. Together these signs are fantastic at repressing emotional energy or just projecting it onto others, especially Libra, the sign that of balance. To me, Libra is in the act of balancing, it is not balanced. Strong LIbra types, in my opinion, are those who seek to be balanced. Nobody who is already balanced seeks to be balanced, and it is my experience that they often swing from one extreme to the other before finally reaching this tentative balance. Underlying all this is the sordidity of negative emotion, conveniently heaped onto others rather than foundn in themselves. Because feeling such things would be unsightly or unappealing to their intellectual ideal, any feelings of jealousy, anger, emotional intensity etc. 'must' be caused by the 'other'. This is a common form of projection amongst the strongly airy, particularly libra, which in my mind is similar in many ways to the opposition, it being the first sign of opposition in the chart.

In summary, I would look to that Venus and ways of integrating it into your life so that it no longer acts as unconcsiously (12th House) as it might currently do. Undoubtedly it is an important focus in your chart.

Hello! I'm new to this tribe, and would really appreciate if anyone would take a look into my natal chart. Thank You!!!

Great interpretation! You should consider doing this professionally if you don't already

"So that Scorpio-Taurus opposition seems like it would be intensified"

...and also my nodes are in the scorpio-taurus axis, there's just no getting away from it!

"But 2 different ideas on how you "serve", one pushing toward an emotional/spiritual type, while the other pushes for a more practical/physical type"

Yeah I'm very often torn between materialism and spirituality and I always look for a balance between them. I'm slowly finding that balance. My wardrobe is bursting with clothes, my book shelves overflowing with books and I like having gadgets and technology that can be quite expensive like my PS3, iMac, iPhone etc (second house uranus?) however I also try value compassion and meditation and empathy. I went through a phase in my late teens of almost asceticism where I only ate in order to survive and spent a great deal of time meditating and had trouble 'staying in my body' if that makes sense. I would sometimes astral travel whilst trying to sleep and have to drag myself back into my body in order to sleep, like my conscious was a helium balloon and I had to tether it to my body. Then in my early twenties i very much found my venus and went the other way (you gotta love oppositions, extremes before balance) and became quite materialistic and self-indulgent with regards food, sensuality, clothes possessions etc, tho I still retained my sense of compassion. In the last couple of years I'm much more balanced with that. I still ike to have things but if I had to get rid of them all it wouldn't bother me. During the summer I gave away about six bin-bags full of clothes to charity shops and also about 150 books (the books were harder).

"ut I could see Mars, especially in verbal Gemini, wanting to push your values onto others. Neptune would push you toward compassion for other people's values, and maybe even some vagueness as to what you're values actually are... an ability to shift value systems, in a sense."

I never really push my values onto others. I'm ocassionally impatient with some belief systems that, upon any kind of questioning, appear to collapse like a house of cards. I don't suffer fools gladly, but that is probably more my scorpio rising side. What I do however, is defend the right of others for their beliefs and will get angry when others attempt to push their belief systems onto others. I will however, happily play devil's advocate with people's values and beliefs, argue them from either side, regardless of what I believe myself, in order to ascertain the core truths or convictions and a lot of people seem to confuse you arguing a side, with you actually believing that side, which isn't always true.

"There's a focus on the 2nd house, probably a good deal of humanitarianism and idealism when it comes to possessions, with Neptune and Uranus, both singletons there."

I could quite happily sum up my values in two words if I had to Compassion (Neptune) and Freedom (Uranus). I'm pretty relaxed and aloof (with all my air signs probably) and I don't easily lose my temper or rise to anger, however if these values are compromised by people, I can sometimes find it difficult to keep my cool. My sun-mercury is opposition uranus, and mars opposition neptune. I often don't realise how hot-tempered I can get with people who defend what I perceive to be dystopic visions and ideals. For exampel in the UK it is illegal to take photos of police if those photos can be used for terrorist purposes. What defines that 'if' is the police officer's opinion rather than guidelines. So it effecitvely makes it illegal to take photos of police if they don't want you to. There are also HUNDREDS of terrorist laws that get applied to everyone, regardless of whether you are suspected to be a terrorist or not. For example, a police officer can normaly only stop and search you if there is reasonable grounds to do so, the terrorist laws say you can stop and search anyone REGARDLESS of whether there are reasonable grounds. Unfortunately we see police abusing that power all the time. Of course we could film the police and prove that they are abusing their powers, but oh, no, wait we can't, that's illegal. A vicious cycle that gets me very angry. The current governement has effectively begun destroying personal freedom and I get quite riled up by anyone who defends these moves. For example, a police officer friend of ours suggested to me that he wished they made it law to stop and search everyone at any time regardless of suspicion and regardless of that terrorist act. I think all these things push us closer to a police-state. Uranus and Neptune in the house of values, naturally opposes that. The idea that America has imprisoned people without trial and subjected them to torture, imprisoning them indefinitely also makes my blood boil. What angers me more is that I can understand that the guys 'at the top' will try to do their own thing, that's almost expected, but what angers me is when the every day people support it.
(in fact I'm even a little riled up just typing that. I struggle to remain calm when considering hte implications of the abuse of power)

Why not do someone elses chart who is waiting on the list that Amiable posted, then ask that they do one for you in return.
Otherwise its just going to be me, exio and yoda whoever else has done them so far. If you want something, you should be prepared to give something in return. Notice the title of the thread is Chart Interpretation Practice - not Free Chart Interpretations for Everyone.
Its meant to be practice. If you want to practice, choose someones chart and give it a go! They may return the favour.

I'll do yours Roy, but you have to have a go at mine too, I'm trusting in the honour system!
First thing I notice is dramatic Leo sun in the 9th- double the drama in your self expression. Trine to Uranus adds the element of surprise.
Contrast this with your Libra Moon in 11th- you're desperately trying to tone things down and become a true people-pleaser. Squaring an ambitious Mars in the second could make it hard to step up and grab opportunities when they come up.
Late Scorpio rising is pretty hardcore in terms of first impressions, add Saturn close by and you're only adding to this.

very interesting stuff... makes sense..but I have a strong Rahu in my chart, and yet seem to have a lot more of the Ketu issues of anxiety, feeling invisible and so on.

Paul & others

cool thread... and nice interpretations, not just focussing on the details but also on the bigger picture, like missing elements...
I have almost no air in my chart, but gemini ASC , moon in the 3rd and mercury in the 5th square uranus in the 7th make up for that in my opinion.. still it is really hard for me to be objective

anyway... i am desperate for a second opinion on my chart, so if anybody has time to do an interpretation.. nice! i'll give feedback

First quick thoughts are this... sense of security of family/friends vs. embarking on the world and a desire to leave a mark... sense of identity/independence vs. partnerships. I think a struggle between independence and dependence... wanting a support system, but also wanting independence, maybe feeling somewhat restricted by support systems (family/close friends), but at the same time, kind of lost without them... maybe feeling strong family ties, but feeling that those ties hamper your success.

Right now, I have to go to bed. I'll maybe look again tomorrow (or soon) and try to come up with something more definite.
