[QUOTE="rafaella, post: 828600, member: 6394"] Reading your post makes me think your father is a product of his own country and culture and having moved to a Western Country, he is clinging to his roots even more, this is normal for many migrants from very different cultural backgrounds. People lose their identity somewhat when they move to a new location with very different values beliefs, culture etcc...Cultural shock happens. Some cant assimilate quickly enough and look down on anything that is different from their own religion or culture. You being raised in the West, you perhaps had to adapt to different values and beliefs, the ones at home and the ones you gain from school/work/friends etc. He is negative because he sees you not adapting to what he thinks is right to do according to his/your cultural background. Yet he doesn't see the fact that you are an independent thinker and want to do what is right for you rather than pleasing family and others in his sphere. Is your sister married? I assume not? The chart shows square between Venus/Mars and Saturn. As the square is an applying one, the tension will continue. Also he may not approve of your relationship choices. Saturn in 3rd house with mutual reception with Jupiter, suggests he has better connection with your siblings. Perhaps most of them oblige him? (you have more than one sibling?). Moon in detriment of Saturn and opposes Sun and Mercury, so that's the issue in regards to marriage and arguments that you write about. BTW are you the only son he has? Perhaps because you are the one to carry his family name and tradition forward, he is extra harsh on you. [/QUOTE]
