Thank you for this thread! It is actually exactly why I just joined this community.
Scorpio sun / Aries moon, with Mars in Capricorn (exalted) exactly conjunct sun-moon midpoint, in the 8th. Sextile to Saturn in Scorpio, forming a yod with my ascendant. I know many astrologers do not consider the ascendant as part of a yod... I'm interested to know anyone's thoughts on this.
I have Venus exactly opposite my Ascendant. I do feel like this configuration plays out as a major theme/lesson in my life. Asc-Venus opposition makes me want to "play nice" with everyone, don't make any waves, always put on a smile, etc. But I feel like my Mars is pretty fierce but somewhat repressed. I'm super intense (Scorpio stellium) and people feel it when I enter the room. I can just feel everyone sort of tense up and it has caused me to compensate and go all meek and mild, show how harmless I am (or am I? ) which is rather easy with my Venus. But it does nothing to actually negate the simmering beneath the surface. I feel like I'm constantly trying to negotiate that balance but it never comes out quite right. If I'm assertive at all, it usually comes across as aggressive, even though I'm consciously trying to be calmly/kindly assertive.
That was a bit of a ramble! I'd greatly appreciate anyone's thoughts. Anyone have similar stuff happening?
yes, me. I can totally relate to this. Libra rising conjunct Pluto and also having mars and Saturn in 1st house. My colleague told me he is afraid of me when he first met me. He said I look serious, unapproachable. He even shared that a few of his friends said the same thing about me and very worried of him when he has to change his seat and move over and sit nest to me. His friend kept asking him how was it sitting next to and was everything ok? lol. He told them I am really cool and funny, lol. I have never see myself serious or unapproachable, I have always thought the opposite of that... My ex said I am cute and my husband always call me cute, pinch my cheek, call me baby and cute every day. Seriously, I thought i look at least friendly or somewhat cute and young maybe? It surprises me when my colleague shared that to me,lol.
