I have sun in Capricorn, yep ole goaty lady, mer goat, to be precise. Lots in sag; moon, mars, venus, mercury ... And Scorp rising.
My mum was into Astrology and I had an aversion, growing up, because of that, but, have since warmed to the science/esoteric art. It has been said that Astrology is the foreparent of psychology.
Makes sense, to me.
I am an earthy mama with some fire for learning, discovery, speaking honestly, being honorable. So I very much relate to the strength of the earthy, solid, dependable, ploddy, mountain-climbing Cap (ruled by Saturn, of time, structure, limitations, gravity, institutions, worldly power) who is, very much, a realist and the lively, jokey (Jove ruled) Sagittarius who is very interested in ideas, inward and outward journeying, aspiring to lofty heights in idealism, and morality and who is basically, somewhat of an optimist, and a thumber-at-the-nose-of-convention and who can greatly upset, inadvertently, at times, with blunt truthfulness.
I realised, lately, my Plutonic, Scorpio ascendant is apt. Your Ascendant/rising sign, is how people perceive you. Scorpio is known.for it's mysteriousness, it's intensity, it's relationship with transformative "rites of passage" ~ birth, death, enlightenment, shamanic journeying, sex, drugs and spiritual practice. It's the plumping depths, plummeting and rising inwardly, sleuthing out hidden knowledge, forensics and witchcraft, hypnosis and mesmerising. It's very dark, when It's dark, and very illuminating and freeing when It's matured and growing from a foundation of truth and love.
Intense.
I have 2 Scorpionic children, oldest and youngest, their dad, also, and I.was raised by my ma with a scorp moon (which rules our emotional bodies).
Yes, there is real science to Astrology, and anyone who fancies themself "scientific" isn't being that, when.they are cynical. Scepticism is being open and enquiring, not being closed and derisive, and arrogant.
I could go on and on, I'm a little interested, a little learned, not much though, but it's quite amazing and VERY complex.
I would like to get a family constellation drawn up, it shows the connections, between family members. I have a very watery fam, in sun signs, the whole set of water signs, in my children, Scorpio, Cancer and Pisces, but two of Cancerian and two Scorp. And an earthy Taurian and a VERY saggy Sag (7 planets in sag, and he really, really shows it).
I used to say I felt like I was drowning.in children and it really felt like it.
My earth child and I have always been solid, she was never swayed from being my active daughter (as opposed to many who were swayed, and manipulated by their very Scorpionic father)
My guy now is, truly, a peace keeping, harmony-promoting Libra, with strong virgo influence and a warm and fiery mars in Leo.
Fun fact. Did you know the words marriage, marital and martial are all from.the root word mars? Yes, according to our elder/ancestor cultural influences, namely our Roman heritage, Mars rules marriage and war.
As for Meyer-Briggs, mine is INTP.
I'm also a dabbler in numerology. I could go a little into that?
Maybe later.
