Okay let's go again.
Oh man, this does sound like a cold reading considering the context of the board. Of course anyone regular here is going to be highly educated. Maybe better if I did the chart of friends.
It's easier with friends obviously because you already know something about them
Anyhow, Ashles your chart (I'm assuming it's your chart)
You shouldn't have assumed that - it's my girlfriend's. You said it could be for anyone, and you hadn't mentioned gender at that point, although I'm not sure why that should be relevant. Just for comparison I will also indicate how closely the reading relates to me.
is pretty straightforward which is actually on the unusual side. So Sun, Moon, rising sign apply. You've got your Sun in the ninth house, the house of higher education, philosophy and travel.
Both I and my girlfriend have degrees. We are both interested in Travel but I have travelled more extensively. I am quite interested in Philosophy, but my girlfriend isn't
Damn, even that sounds like a cold reading because travel could be deduced from the birthplace.
True. Do you perhaps sometimes add some predictions in almost automatically from other knowledge? I'll come back to that
Okay, ignoring travel, certainly that's a person who is college educated, and probably something philosophical or idea or art based rather than engineering.
She is college educated, but her degree was in Information Management, whereas mine was in Experimental Psychology. Goven the two subjects mine would perhaps be a closer hit.
Libra is the sign of ideas and beauty.
My girlfriend is certainly beautiful, but I'm the one who writes, and have had a films shown on TV in the UK. A good 'hit' for me.
Excellent chart for a professor, especially with Mercury, the planet of communication so close to the midheaven, point of fame and career success (also in Libra). Not quite a conjunction, but almost. Silver-tongued would apply to this person. People listen when you speak. If you aren't a professor, you should be.
I can't really see this as a hit at all. My girlfriend has never had any interest in being a teacher or professor. I considered taking a masters for about a week, but that's the closest I can get
Not to get too personal, but you've got four planets in your eighth house too. That's the house of other people's money, life, death and regeneration, but it's basically the house of sex.
Okay there's quite a lot of stuff here. We both work in creating pitchbook presentations (I really can't say there is much design involved - we create them to a strict corporate style - but I am very good with Photoshop), but it is for a bank so you could count the 'other people's money' as a hit. Life death and regeneration? I don't know what any of that would be relating to in particular. The house of sex? Whoa there!
Having Pluto the planet of sex, conjuncting Jupiter, the lucky planet in your 8th house has got to be good. You've also got Mars, the planet of ambition, aggression and sex drive there,
Both of us are really not very ambitious at all. We really like our jobs and I write in my spare time. Never send it off though. I'm obviously not going to discuss any details of my sex life here!
along with Uranus, planet of the freaky and unusual. They're all in Virgo, which is the most virginal zodiac sign which should make for an interesting combination, I'm guessing could produce pretty strong neurotic tendencies.
I wouldn't really say so, but she does like cleaning a lot more than me. Not sure if that's particularly zodiac related though
You've also got an extremely tight quincunx between Jupiter and your Aries (dominant) Saturn, only two minutes.
Why thank you! I try to work out.
That's the angle of obsession. BTW Saturn is in your third house, house of communication--could mean an obsession with talking about sex.
No, I'm British
Not only that, you have Venus and Neptune in Scorpio in your house of career. Scorpio is the sign of sex and uncovering secrets. Actually would also be good for a professor involved with research. Also a good chart for a writer, especially a fiction writer.
This would be an excellent hit for me. It's not for my girlfriend though, she doesn't write.
Your chart ruler is Saturn because you are Capricorn rising. Capricorn rising is the way you appear to others and how you deal with them. Well here is not a cold reading, you are one of the posters friendly to believers,
This is one of the things that you have deduced from me directly (and Hypnopsi might disagree) but if I had announced it as a hit straight away would you have admitted that you hadn't got this from the chart? Be honest, do you sometimes do that with friends? I'm not being mean, I'm sure you believe this, but sometimes we might add that extra bit of knowledge and declare it a hit, almost automatically
but Capricorn is the most skeptical and pragmatic of signs.
This is a distinct non-hit as I am the skeptical one and my girlfriend is quite the opposite. Was this from the chart or was it based on my previous posts, because as it stands it is really incorrect.
Career comes easy to you.
Thos is true of me and my girlfiend.
People perceive you as practical, competent and no-nonsense.
This is reasonably truw of both of us, although we can both be very impractical quite often. Semi-hit
Your Taurus moon is also an earth sign, adding to the practical nature. Your moods are stable (aside from sexual interest) and you are loyal in love.
I would say my moods are a little more stable than my girlfriends, but this could just be male chauvanism. We are both very loyal in love. Hits, but again, better for me.
With Saturn as your chart ruler, the most important thinig to you is dominance in communication
Not really true for either of us. Unless you count forum boards, in which case, probably a hit for me
Sorry, this chart reading is an awkward one to respond to. Maybe someone else's, your chart was a little unusual in that respect.
Thanks for the reading, but in conclusion it was probably more correct for me than my girlfriend, and still not nearly correct enough that it was particularly better than chance. Other posters have also seen how my reading could apply to them, and similarly I've seen lots of things on other readings that applied really well to me.
My details, just for the record are - 05 February 1972, midday (exactly) Barnstaple, Devon. It might be interesting for you to do that one now, and compare it to what you now know about me.
Cheers,
Ash
