the Cap Stellium of 1988-1991

[sandstone]

for me any chart analysis begins with 3 important considerations... sun, moon and ascendant position.. the moon is much more significant then many in the astro community seem to give it credit or, you don't hear it talked about that much.. i tend to see moon as equal or more important then the sun! i suppose i'm supporting some of maemae's views here..

the capricorn stellium would seem to have something special to say about parental figures too as saturn rules this stellium and is often given an association with a strong father type figure..fear of failure can be passed on thru the generations, as can a concern for achievement which are kind of rolled into the same energy for me - saturn and capricorn to a large extent.. strong 10th house placements just give it a double whammy effect if you already have capricorn strong by sign with this stellium group of young people do have.. it's an ongoing challenge processing the energy.

[kimbermoon]

I agree that the Moon is often more obvious than the Sun in the chart...the Moon regulates the river of our emotions from the past and into the future that we are creating...memory is meant to be the reminder of our past mistakes.

also I always look to the combination of the Sun, Moon and Ascendant combined, as representing the 'personality' of the individual: the inner energies of the true essence must be channeled through the archetype of the Ascendant.

Hm...I was not born in those years,but 1994 and I have a huge Capricorn stellium in the first house as well.Followed by a tiny one of three planets in Scorpio in the 10th house of career.
I wouldn't call myself an achiever.I haven't achieved something worse mentioning that would set me apart from other people my age or other people in general.Then again it may be too early for me.
But I find it more important to live up to my own expectations and lifestyle which I consider the best for me and right.I am putting effort in that and in becoming an independent person and trying to get over my fears.It is true that Capricorn ruled people are scared of failure.Although I've always wanted to prove myself and reach the top,I've recently come to realize that you could be happy without conquering the top.I wish to make my dreams come true though and that's what I'll try my hardest for.Unfortunately,I am not purely career-oriented.The environment and the people I associate with have a great effect on me and my will,both good and bad depending on the situation.

It's his passion but he seems to have a negative attitude...he thinks there's too much competition and there's always someone better than him so it's not good enough. Kinda jealous...shame he's not into astrology...

Sounds like me... except I'm very into astrology

I am part of this generation as well. As others have pointed out, many of us born within this time period have a lot of drive to succeed and make something for ourselves in this world. Having these three planets strung together can be swung in many directions though. It can either be a powerhouse of strength, or it can be an absolutely horrible hinderance putting forth challenges that simply can never be surmounted. I know people in both of these catagories, and it's interesting to see how it plays out.

For me, having these 3 planets in capricorn is what makes me a perfectionist. I strive to do the absolute best I can with everything I do. Ever since I was a small child, not winning, not being the best, or not meeting my internal standards was horrible for me. I felt like I was unworthy not to succeed. As I have grown older, my drive has refined within this. Unfortonaely, a lot of this comes from a fear of failure, and not a desire to win. It's a negative motivation for me. My saturn and neptune are afflicted the most of these two, and this is the reason for this.

These planets are in the 3rd house for me, so a lot of what they deal with is with the mind and communication. For other reasons, I am sort of a communication whore (I talk a lot, write a lot, present a lot, the list goes on), and it's because I have found such a great utility to it. Interestingly, it's also a method of control for me. By explicitly stating all possible available information, I reduce the change for uncertainty spawned error. It's all about removing sources of error. Which is something the 3rd house is known for; cutting corners, mental laziness, and mistakes.

I am deathly afraid of uncertainty. Unsigned contracts, unpaid loans, penciled in appointments. They all freak me out to no end. I have a terrible time being able to deal with those. Life has shoved my face in those situations many times though (and I suspect it will happen again), because I need to learn how to deal with uncertainty and loss of control. The control part stems from other areas in my chart, but it's something I use to a great extent in order to keep going where I want to go.

I'm doing something right though, because I have gotten as far as I have. I'm 23 years old and going into my second year in grad school. I'm studying to get a PhD in organic chemistry. I've had a passion for science since I was very little. When I was 10 I decided I wanted to be a chemist. It just "felt right". One thing that this stellium has blessed me with is I have always felt a defined purpose and direction in my life. If I lose sight of it, I am quickly able to find it again.

I think that's good for an overview. These three planets are a big driving force in my chart because they work by negative influence. However, negative influence will move me faster then anything else.

I attached my chart so others can see.

[catastrophe]

Nicestly put, Tautomer... I like what you said about being perfectionist by fear of failure, not drive to succeed. This really resonated with me, and has been something I'm slowly coming to realize in my own life. I've lived for a long time in denial of being said perfectionist, and now I'm trying to work with it, instead of just feeling so stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Btw, we have a very close rising sign to each other

I have a Stellium in cap in the 2nd house. Hopefully someone here could help me figure what it means as there are not too many good explanations of the 2nd house.

http://www.astrologyweekly.com/forum...4&d=1342851348

[kimbermoon]

The second house primarily relates directly to one's own personal resources and monetary interactions: psychologically though it relates to one's beliefs about money as to it's priority in one's life. The mini-stellium in this house is rather unfortunately appointed, with the challenges predicted to be involved as represented by the red lines of planetary connections. For you, in the coming years Pluto [soul purging and transformation] is putting the pressure on this concentration of energies, suggesting that you may be required to undergo a reconsideration of your beliefs about money: do you want more than you need, or just enough? The Capricorn Moon is typically conservative in financial dealings; however combined with Uranus it does suggest unpredictability and frequent change [instability] as we see now happening on a global scale. The Moon with Neptune can also be indicative of potential fraud or deception in monetary dealings. From an emotional level this Moon sign tends to be quite reserved causing the individual to be quite withdrawn and often emotionally repressed, which can lead to internal bottlenecks.
Look to the aspects involved with this configuration: Square to Venus [gambling, taking risks] and Jupiter [misjudgment, poor decision making] The opposition between Venus and Jupiter, makes for the potential of overindulgence and recklessness [with Mars also squaring Jupiter] The t-square configuration can be a daunting challenge to overcome; the key is in knowing what internalized blockages you are trying to overcome. The Mars in Cancer energy is detrimental to emotional expression, which can be tied up in the need for inner security and stability; this can sometimes cause greater inertia in manifesting your desires. You could be taken advantage of in matters of shared resources [investments, inheritances, insurance, etc] Another disadvantage or hurdle is shown by Pluto in square aspect to your Sun; there can be issues of power struggles involving 'who is in control of your life'. There can be disputes with authorities and attacks against your personal power; your sense of identity may be in question at times; this would suggest you guard against identity theft as well.
As per money, again, ask yourself, do you want more than you need, or just enough?

re: White wolf running
What might the Cap Stellium mean for you:


Uranus, Saturn, Neptune, Mercury and Venus in the 11th: The eleventh is about where we may fulfill our creative and humanitarian aspirations. Such strong Capricorn energy here can serve to focus your energies towards managerial or leadership roles in group associations and governmental organizations. With the Sun in the 12th this would suggest that you are apt to be most comfortable working from 'behind the scenes' relating to employment matters, although there are afflictions here that will need to be tended to. Sun sq Mars: there can be conflicts with employers and people in positions of authority...on the one hand you may be quite conforming, but one wonders if you have a repressed tendency to rebel against those who wish to control and direct you...this could lead to many challenges in working with others.
This affliction is intensified due to Pluto's opposition [power and control] which further incites rebellious tendencies that can be involved in actual violence at some point in your life: unless resolved your recklessness and impatience can get you into trouble, which could lead to some need for temporary confinement, either enforced or by your own free will. This significant configuration in the chart can present strong oppositional experiences that serve to keep you off balance between your outer and your inner realities and much relates to your sense of personal identity and individuality.
Neptune can generate energies of deception or duplicity. Saturn in Capricorn can lead to bouts of depression and withdrawal. Your earth and water energies dominate in the chart, and this can suggest you are more introspective and reclusive than outgoing in nature. Are you currently employed and what do you feel is your dominant focus for the future?
Your persona components: Sun in Aquarius, Moon in Sagittarius: a contrast of energy exchange here between air [socialization and mental connections] and water [emotional orientation and reactions]. Moon in the 10th suggests flexibility and many change in professional or career matters. You were born under a waning crescent moon, depicting that energies are at a minimum at certain times every month; The Sun generates the ability and the desire to innovate and motivate others, while your Moon, as part of your hidden self, has a strong need or yearning for honesty, as well as for inspiration. This can play into your domestic relationships in certain ways. Still you are apt to wait for others to take the lead in initiating motivation and direction. You can get all fired up with excitement and enthusiastic ideas you want to share with others, but may hold you back from expressing your true feelings and emotions.
Being a double Aquarius would emphasize the inherent qualities of this archetype, but you must be cautious to avoid prejudicial attitudes inherited from the past and tendencies to use bad judgment at times. The heavy emphasis on the water energy implies there is much for you to learn and know about the workings of the emotions and how you go about expressing them. Just a few things for you to consider. Anything else of major concern at this time in your life?

Wow! thank you kindly for your excellent response and time

Fulfil creative and humanitarian aspirations.

I do have a tremendous desire to help humanity and the planet ... this is at a large scale though/ Wanting to get to the very root of the problem...
As otherwise one would simply be treating the symptoms endlessly and not taking out the cause.

Such strong Capricorn energy here can serve to focus your energies towards managerial or leadership roles in group associations and governmental organizations.

I think I have a leader deep down inside me somewhere though it is yet to manifest to the fullness I think necessary.

You are apt to be most comfortable working from 'behind the scenes'

I do prefer behind the scenes yes, the spotlight is not my place... perhaps an advisor/guardian of sorts like Merlin to King Arthur... haha

Sun sq Mars: there can be conflicts with employers and people in positions of authority...on the one hand you may be quite conforming, but one wonders if you have a repressed tendency to rebel against those who wish to control and direct you...this could lead to many challenges in working with others.

I do tend to this... mostly I have problems with what I would call false authority.

This is at a micro and macro level + ties into my humanitarian aspirations too I think.

Perhaps in the future authority + its meaning etc will change dramatically... one thought comes to mind of the current social unrest and the "leaderless resistance" or much less in the way of hierarchical structures ... more fluid/ dynamic - natural leadership... everyone has their strengths etc and people play to that.

Rebellious tendencies / I suppose at present this is more at a mental level than physical... questioning things etc ... breaking down the status quo / conditioning etc

I have confined myself somewhat by my own freewill , I guess this also ties into depression and withdrawal + the earth and water energies dominating the chart, leading to more introspection and being reclusive... perhaps this also drives my aspirations regarding spirit + the unseen etc.

The depression is mostly related to humanitarian issues possibly reinforced by Aquarian Sun and Rising... and feeling that I don't have the ability to really make a difference. // Which I am trying to figure out at present... or how to make a difference... as described above.

This is getting better

Are you currently employed and what do you feel is your dominant focus for the future?

At present I am not employed / I am @ uni though having a break presently / redirection maybe? I have 3 units to complete to finish my degree in architecture... though I have lost my interest in it.

Moon in the 10th suggests flexibility and many change in professional or career matters.

I do like flexibility and change, I really need something creative/ free + meaningful otherwise... I am like a tiger in a cage //

The Sun generates the ability and the desire to innovate and motivate others, while your Moon, as part of your hidden self, has a strong need or yearning for honesty, as well as for inspiration .

I suppose this relates to dominate focus for the future... honesty / truth etc in particular is important to me. I love to inspire too... to bring beauty and awe. Beauty at a numerous levels too... eg truth / honesty / sincerity etc is beauty // love, kindness, music, art and so on

These are all rather abstract things in terms of a focus though

You can get all fired up with excitement and enthusiastic ideas you want to share with others, but may hold you back from expressing your true feelings and emotions.

I think I am getting better at this too.

The heavy emphasis on the water energy implies there is much for you to learn and know about the workings of the emotions and how you go about expressing them.

I think my emotion will be a power of sorts someday once I figure it all out

energy in motion ... /

Anything else of major concern at this time in your life?

I noticed one of your previous posts

From the queries I get, many have difficulty fitting in with the current 'reality' that has been set before them: essentially they all seem to ask similar questions about their lives and what they are to do in the future...

haha I think you are spot on here /// What is my mission SIR! ... I feel I have a mission...something I am here to do.

I also found my Part of Fortune to be in the 11th house @ 12 degrees Capricorn, which again reinforces all the energy already there... sometimes I think I will have to become Superman or the like to make the changes I wish haha

Overwhelming at times... though I am starting to get a grip on it...

How/ by what way or means is the question I suppose - I am working on that.

Maybe I will have to scale down my vision a bit too hahah

Astrology is my passion: service is my mission.Love your spirit name by the way.

thank you thank you and thank you

[kimbermoon]

Thank you for sharing your experiences related to your planetary configurations, and how you experience them...this is very important for other students to understand...this is what I believe astrology is meant for. It is about bringing our internalized subconscious recognitions to the level of conscious awareness to bring us to better appreciation of our true inner self.

'Perhaps in the future authority + its meaning etc will change dramatically... one thought comes to mind of the current social unrest and the "leaderless resistance" or much less in the way of hierarchical structures ... more fluid/ dynamic - natural leadership... everyone has their strengths etc and people play to that.'


I totally concur with this conclusion and this is more along the lines of what the New Era will bring forth...Pluto is about tearing down structures of authority, in an attempt to resurrect it in a more refined methodology; Uranus and Neptune is the signature of generations that will experience major global social and economic change as well.

In essence our mission in life only becomes clear after much energy, experience and wisdom has been acquired in order to serve the mission appropriately. Since you have not yet experienced your Saturn return you are still in the 'gathering, experiencing and maturing' phase of development. We must first refine ourselves, meet our challenges and gain the necessary wisdom before we can appropriately take on our chosen mission.

'I also foundmy Part of Fortune to be in the 11th house' May I ask, what you may think this means to you?We can often find clues to our personal mission in the Nodal Axis, which for you entails the Virgo/Pisces polarity, which indeed has to do with being of service to others and the ability to balance between the urge for selfishness and the need for selflessness.
'What is my mission SIR!' Such specification is not available to you as yet; but know there can be many interpretations as to the clues provided. Our mission is like the pearl hidden within the oyster shell...and btw, I am rather the Lady of the Lake. Thanks again for sharing.

~LOT~

Part (or Lot as the Greeks called it) of Fortune

By Robert Hand @ Astrodienst

The Part of Fortune is a primary indicator of prosperity, but it is more than that. It is created out of the longitudes of the Sun, Moon, and Ascendant, and therefore is composed out of the three of the most important places in the chart (only the Midheaven outside of these three is as important) and as a result becomes as important as they are. In modern astrology there is a tendency to regard the Part of Fortune as a minor point in the chart, but this was not the case with ancient astrology.

In ancient astrology the Ascendant is the primary indicator of the physical body and health. The Moon is also a very important secondary indicator about the body. But there is a difference between them. The Ascendant was considered to be the body at its most physical, material level. The Moon was the living aspect of the body, in fact soul, but soul incarnated in a physical body.

The Part of Fortune, being composed of both of these along with the Sun, is also an indicator of the living, physical body and its relationships with the physical and social world in which the native lives. Its capacity to signify prosperity comes from this. If the Part of Fortune is in good condition, the relationship between the native and the physical and social world in which he or she lives is one that supports the native and enables the native to live well.

FORTUNE IN THE ELEVENTH HOUSE: In its positive aspect, this house may be interpreted as the "Indian summer" of the cycle — the transfiguration of personal consciousness having become not only aware of large collective issues, but able to participate in significant endeavors to renew and transform traditional values and institutions. In a more negative sense, this house refers to mere dreams or to ideals which are not attuned to the rhythm of human evolution. The person born with the Part of Fortune in this section of the space surrounding his birth may seek happiness in dreams, or compensation for personal complexes in revolutionary or anarchistic activities which do not meet "the needs of the times." He can also be a pioneer and reformer of social, cultural or spiritual values. Darwin, the father of the modern theory of the evolution of the species, and Mahatma Gandhi — at once dreamer, prophet and statesman — are significant examples.

By Dane Rudhyar

Part of Fortune in 11th House

You may have the urge to be a reformer or pioneer of new social, cultural or spiritual values. Happiness will come from contact with bright, intelligent people or friends who stimulate your imagination with inspired ideas and noble concepts.

http://www.horoscopeswithin.com/part...neinhouses.php

11th House
Your joy is derived from realizing your dreams and cultivating abiding friendships. You honor that people come together to celebrate their personal and mutual becoming. Cultivate openness to the unconventional and unique. Your fortune is in the realization that freedom is not an illusion: it is our birthright. Astrology might provide fortunate guidance for you.

http://www.astroresources.com/fortune.htm

The Part of Fortune in CAPRICORN
There is a profundity, and at times austerity or transcendence, in the individual's search for happiness. The personal life tends to flow in depth rather than in width, but often with an exalted quality. The sense of social or spiritual responsibility may be dominant. It may lead to the belief in one's unique mission and in one's capacity to incarnate a new type of human individual in whatever sphere one may function — thus to be an examplar in the most personal sense of the term. Examples: Baha'u'llah, whom many consider to have been a Divine Incarnation; Nostradamus, the seer; Annie Besant; Ralph Waldo Emerson; J. P. Morgan the elder—and (probably) Abraham Lincoln

Nice to meet you Lady of the Lake

[Amit89]

I was born in June 1989, I have the capricorn stellium in the 4th house, which all 3 planets are trining the moon and neptune, saturn trines the ascendant. However, this stellium opposses the sun in my 10th.

As others have pointed out, this configuration would lead to success, ambition, mastery, someone wanting to be a success in the world.

I am very ambitious and wanting to make myself a success as a professional in my field. I would say I am good at goal-making, organizing and being very resourceful, self-sufficient.
