I am confused about my gender identity, can aspects related to this appear in the birth chart??

Thank those for trying to say this in as many different ways as we can:
Polarity is a human construct arsing from the way our brains are made and used to process information. Polarities are extreme points on a continuum, having no more weight or meaning than any of the other infinite points on that continuum.

There is no reason to believe that how humans make sense of the world with their perception of difference, using the mental construct of polarity, is the somehow the truth.

Likewise astrology is an intellectual construct.

There is no reason to believe that how humans make sense of the world with astrology is somehow the truth.

So either all meaning is relative/constructed, there is no meaning, or there is meaning.

In your chart you have Venus conjunct Neptune,
so the ability to love, and what you love/like is boundless.

An unconventional and intellectual conjunction, in Aquarius,
which also rules the Sun in Pisces, masculine archetype elusive and inspired like never before.
Add Jupiter opposition to Venus/Neptune which increases this aspect even more.

Venus/ Neptune is in H5, the house of self-expression (including sex) and Venus rules the ascendant.

I would tell you, like St. Augustine:
"Love! and do what you want"

Polarity has been part of astrology for thousands of years, until very recently for some reason.

Polarity is fundamental to astrology, until very recently for some reason.

Polarity is also fundamental to most cultures and languages across time and space, except Anglo/Germanic cultures very recently for some reason.

In most languages, including Latin languages, nouns are masculine or feminine (or neutral/inanimate in some languages.)

So reality itself has polarity for most people.

Polarity is still part of astrology. It's just that now there are certain branches of astrology that don't make much of it.

Thankfully English is highly gender-neutral compared to other languages. On the other hand, a lot of the gendering of objects in other languages makes no objective sense. For example, in French, tables are feminine, and beds are masculine.

In German, the sun (die Sonne) is feminine and the moon (der Mond) is masculine. Then the word for girl is neuter (das Mädchen) and the word for an unmarried woman was Fräulein, prior to a movement about 40 years ago to change that to Frau, woman.

"Reality" itself is a cultural construct. We have no way of understanding reality except through our cultural lenses.

I've been studying astrology for over 30 years, and I have yet to see how the notion of polarity helps in a horoscope reading. (An aspect known as the opposition, yes, absolutely it is important; but this isn't quite what polarity means.)

More to the point of your OP, Alisson, I just wonder if a lot of the anxiety experienced by young people who don't fit into standardized gender norms would be lightened considerably if people just felt freer to see gender identity as fluid, instead of these rigid binaries. It's OK to feel more manly one day and more feminine another day-- and to define what those gender concepts mean to you.

alisson, if you ares still somewhere about, I wanted to address your chart with reference to your questions.

from what I see, you have two major factors pointing to your drives.

one is what we call a t-square, shaped like a t and involving three or more planets. for you they are in mutable signs, signs of duality. the triggers of tension involving your identity, almost war like. pluto in sagittarius, demanding total rethought and regeneration in direct conflict with saturn in gemini providing you with the structures of your being and life, aptly in the sign of the twins!

conflict between saturn and pluto is not easy and it can take many forms, normally external. but for you it appears to be internalised to yourself and specifically your body.

added to above there is a second stresspoint and this one is the idealisation of feelings through material objects, kicked up a few notched to extremes by the fuel of jupiter that never does things in small amounts. the idealisation of venus conjunct neptune in aquarius demands extremes of difference. it vaporises past the given society structures and norms looking for wider and more substantial expression. venus aquarius is androgenous. it is extreme, eccentric and tolerant of vast expression.

i dont know if you are trans or if you are just looking for your niche in the expression of your identity in your own terms. way past the issues of trans and male/female…to the land of the individual beyond gender.

I see Venus in Aquarius conjunct Neptune in Aquarius, to the degree! Aquarius can be nonbinary and be agender! And Neptune can cause confusion!

Be warned, though, this placement doesn't mean that everyone with this placement will be confused about their gender, be nonbinary, be binary, or be agender! It is just one expression of how an aspect can come to be!
