Hello everyone :smile:

I've started studying astrology by myself since the beginning of this year and little by little I'm learning and it fascinates me. I'm happy to be part of this incredible community I've been following and reading all these months of study trying to understand as much as I could. :joyful:

I'm a Virgo Sun/Moon/Mercury and Libra Ascendant. Before getting deeper into the study of astrology I used to feel and also say that Virgo Sun did not represent me at all, but after discovering the birth chart systems and all the connections the planets can make, I could understand a little and feel that it does represent me :smile:

I hope to learn from all of you :smile:

Wow! triple virgo that's impressive! It always amazes me when people have the same moon/rising/mercury/venus signs as their sun because I know I definitely don't have that or even feel like my sun (probably because my rising is so prominent) but oh well!

I feel indeed very Mercurian :smile: having Mercury as the dominant planet and a 12th house stellium: Sun+Moon+Mercury. But on the other hand, I feel my Libra Ascendant is very much part of me and I strongly identify with Libra :joyful:

I'm glad to meet you :happy: What are your placements? Why do you say you don't feel like your sun? What planet is the dominant in your chart?

As a person with a Gemini Rising, I feel really Mercurial too!

i am suspecting AI infiltration frankly.

i now also suspect this was the reason for astro.com wrapping up at such high speed. he probably noticed the new logons werent people nd slammed the thing down. there is no way I will post astrology any longer. i am wrapping up too.

but to comment on timekeeping…..I recently went to a very interesting museum on ancient Greek engineering, including some amazing working hydraulic engineering. one for 365 days…the clock of ctesibius 200 bc. we all should know the antikythera calculator but there are others too. they were a hellava more advanced than i knew. kudus to them.

ancient astrologers had access to good time clocks probably going back thousands of years.

the museum has working examples built by a modern mechanical engineer. fascinating!

by the end we figured out how Jesus turned water to wine with one of these hydrolic server inventions! no sweat! it wasnt a miracle, just engineering.

Hello everyone. I just recently joined because I realized that astrology is a big tool for us to know thyself more and manage ourselves to respond to a lot of things. I decided to fully learn astrology early this year and it has been a hell of a ride. Too many concepts to understand, too many books to read, and since this is a thousand-year discipline, you have to be ready to millennia of passed on stories and traditions. But I should say that all of them are worth it. I knew myself more and I kind of able to manage myself to stuff that are expected to influence us. But I am still just learning and still has a LOTTTTTT of things to learn. The most difficult part for me now is the aspects of transits and natal chart because there are a lot of things going on. But I know it's just a learning curve and I'll learn it eventually.

Btw, I'm a Gemini Sun, Virgo Moon, and Taurus Rising.
