top heavy chart

[dissolve]

My chart is very top heavy, what is this likely to mean?

Any thoughts on my chart are welcome...appreciated infact! (if you're bored and have nothing to do that is :wink: )

This is Tim's specialty...I suggest that you check out his site, Free Astrological Chart Interpretation (http://www.geocities.com/wilsontctc/index.html).

Here's an excerpt that should answer your question:

Since there are more pictures above than below, this chart has an outer world focus. A person who has such a chart, although they may be very concerned about their own innere world issues, will most likely find that these personal issues focus on the needs and concerns of the outer world.

I'm not bored and do have a lot of things to be getting on with but will comment on your chart.

Hello top heavy! I'm new to this site and think you have an 'easy' chart. However, Your moon does square venus and mars possibly making you emotionally severe, also Venus squares Pluto. But you have some very lucky aspects also e.g moon sextile Jupiter, Jupiter sextile Saturn and Sun sextile Mars - I wish I had these!

Here is the link to my chart - it would be good to get some feedback.

Hello, thank you both for your replies.

I'll begin in response to my first question regarding my top heavy chart. It's interesting that this should signify that I have an outer world focus. I've always considered myself very inwardly focused, perhaps I can interpret this in the sense that I have a habit of purely looking to others to define how I feel about myself. I tend to focus in on other people's reactions and the world a bit too much. Ive been told in the past that I need to focus more on myself rather than trying to decifer the reactions of others. I guess that could be part of it, I'm not sure how good an interpretation that is really.

When I said to comment if people were bored etc I think I was probably feeling a bit down on myself to be honest. So seeing if people would respond without me having to actually ask and seem bothered. Funny defense mechanism. I didn't really want to hint of my emotional difficulties either and bias any responses.

An 'easy' chart? Hmm interesting. I think maybe it's those moon square venus and mars which are both in my 12th house which causes me my main problems. My emotions are very up and down...mostly down...hah One little thing can set me off on a very negative pathway. I've had pretty bad moments.

I guess I need to take advantage of my good aspects. My moods seem to ruin a lot of what I could acheive to be honest, I really struggle to control them. I'm also very inhibited and quite shy (rather socially inept) and this all holds me back. It's very physically draining. People tire me out. Not very good when you're training as a health care professional eh?

I don't have that much knowledge of astrology really, it's just something I look into every so often.

I do have problems with concentration and communicating at times. I have a habit of sometimes putting my foot in it. I guess I could blame my pisces ascendant for being a bit of a space cadet. Perhaps that's a bit basic?

Thankyou for your responses. when I get a bit better at interpretting maybe I'll try commenting on other peoples' charts.

dissolve,

Maverick did a good job on summing up my approach to a "top heavy" chart. I would also add that since you have more planets near or in the top right of your chart, you tend to use your relationships with others as a way to do things for others.

I would not suggest you have an easy chart, partly because of the challenging squares to Venus and Mars as you mentioned, but also because your North node (future goals) is focused in your 2nd house (physical, also your values) and your Saturn (duty, also restriction) and Moon (home, also emotions) are conjunct (energy is combined with) your South node (the past) focused in the 8th house (transformation, also other people's values).

The result is exactly what you described, you can become so concerned about emotionally restrictive things which happen based on the way OTHERS value you...that you forget to focus in on how YOU value yourself. Your natural focus on helping other people also encourages you to value others over yourself. It sounds like you understand the life challenge this presents: values yourself for who YOU are.

Quotable,

Tim

Hi Dissolve,
With such a name, don't allow yourself to totally fade away in your desire to feel accepted by others :wink:

I'd like to add something from another perspective to further consolidate what Tim has already mentioned.

I study a point in the chart called Black Moon Lilith that has been observed to correlate to a facet of the uninhibited natural nature that we sometimes withhold from allowing to manifest in the great, wide world because it often represents exactly that which WE ACTIVELY FEEL but that people cannot accept about us. It is especially 'active' in the years of childhood and pre-puberty when trying to give substance to our self. From adolescence, we can come to feel it to be something 'wrong' about us and treat it as if it is something we would prefer not to admit exists within us. We create and possibly live with a 'false image' of how we truly are, whilst an important part of our natural nature lies dormant until we allow it to surface again on its own terms.

This point is not included in the chart you presented but its position is on approx. 12 degrees intercepted Aries in your 1st house.
On an everyday level this could mean that some part of you instinctively feels who and how strong you are..... or could be if you allowed it to surface :wink: You inwardly possess everything that Aries stands for. By acting upon your first nature instinct, your 'gut feeling', you can do and become anything and everything you inwardly desire. But if you deny it, nothing happens, nothing manifests because you lack the inner courage, the inner fire of Aries that allows you to feel that you can.

This point makes good aspects to your Moon, Mercury-Uranus conjunction, and Venus. This could be indicative that, although you may think otherwise, you are 'attractive' and have an inbred talent of drawing people to you, especially in areas where impersonal commitment and emotional detachment is required of you. This is especially necessary in your choice of profession. The challenge comes from the square to Jupiter in Capricorn; believing that you have it in you to overcome any barriers that you FEEL do, but may not necessarily actually stand in the way of your advancement. There's also a 'wide' semi-square to natal Mars, as if you don't want to admit to feeling bonded in personal relationships and knowing that your personal freedom to do as you will means a lot, and is of greater personal importance to you. Hopefully that will change as you get older and work through your Moon-Venus square needs.

You are standing on the threshold of your life with so many possibilities open to you. You have a wonderful chart; truly someone who can 'make a difference' in the world because your energies are all in the signs and houses that that makes you personally associated with those who care for its welfare and those who live upon it. This will be your personal value. Feeling liberated from the emotional ties that keep you in an old pattern and, as Tim said, the point of your NN in Taurus.

Black Moon Lilith either shuts the blinds on who you are, or opens them for you to discover it. The only requirement is total honesty without falsehood :wink: :wink:
Re-read your own comments in your post and see if they can create another perspective.

Maybe Neptune in Capricorn helps provide the physical reality of it ? :wink:

Hey,

it's taken me an amazingly long time to repost. Thankyou for taking the time to look at my chart. I took ages to reply because every time I remember my brain just doesn't feel able to concentrate long enough to write anything. I'm finding it hard to take everything that has been written and process it in order to form a reply. I really feel like my brain is falling apart these days... I drift off in my head a lot.. no concentration. Things have been a little turbulant too. I had the most stupid arrangement since xmas with a 'friend' of mine which involved not sleeping with other people... but not actually being together. Anyway, I thought he was probably breaking this so eventually I ended up sleeping with two other people and then telling him within a week or two. really logical huh? Being that before him I was a virgin I'm not exactly sure what's going on with me. It's almost like I gave up respecting myself and just became incredibly self destructive. Anyway, he no longer wants to be my friend....so that's 4 ish years of friendship ruined...opps... Being that I didn't trust him I think maybe it was for the best, but then who do I trust? I haven't cried or felt particularly upset either. This all sounds incredibly teenage drama-ish. I'm sleeping too much, I'm existing on denial. I'm disconnected. I'm ranting on an astrology forum. I'm questioning whether I'm really a good person at all. I know deep down I've got a lot to give, but I suppose I don't feel anyone would really want it. I'm too sarcastic, I can't find or show enthusiasm....because what is there to be enthusiastic about? I'm terrified about my future.


Sorry I ranted. I know it's probably inappropriate but I suppose I needed to put it out there. Thankyou again for the replies you gave me.

dissolve,

Currently you have transiting (planets in the sky) Uranus (friends, also rebellion, restructuring) conjuncting (energy is combined with) your Ascendant (self). This indicates a time when you are "friendly" to others (i.e., close but not TOO close) and may want to rebel against everyone as a way to focus more on yourself. In addition, transiting Neptune (spirituality, also confusion) is conjuncting your Mars (being, also action), so it may be difficult or confusing to take actions at this time. Both of these are LONG transits, so the challenge is to restructure yourself without over-rebelling, and in finding some spiritual actions to do.

Uranally Neptunifying,

Tim
