Hi! I'm learning how to interpret my own birth chart. I am a complete newbie, (not even a larva, an egg!) and I would like to clear up/understand some things about my chart.

I actually posted the same question on the natal chart board, then realized this might be a better place to post my question. I'm sorry for duplicating, and if any of the mods need to delete the post, please do so.

1. Chart shape- I cannot see any shape. It's not evenly distributed, nor is it funnel or a see saw. Can anyone help me out on this?
2. Is there a stellium in the 7th house? Does the true node count?
3. I've seen this question in many forums- my Uranus, moon and Neptune are in the 7th. Am i doomed? From self-interpretation, it says my associations will be sudden, unusual, up today down tomorrow, probably bogus and I'll be completely blind to it all, and it would be better if I stick to 5th house relationships. I have Pluto in the 5th house,under Scorpio, who is all or nothing What? And add that to my Cap moon and Taurus sun, how does that even happen...I don't know... (This is probably my biggest question- I want to find out if there are other interpretations of this.)
4.My ascendant is the opposite of my moon. I've seen many readings that combine the moon/sun or the sun/ascendant, but never the ascendant/moon. I think this would be important, since ascendant is said to be how we appear, and the moon is how *we* feel we appear. It's not a question, but what do you think? Do any of you have something similar?
5.What gives more weight to a natal chart reading- what planet is each house, or the sign in a house, or where the ruler of that house is placed?
6. I read somewhere that we 'grow' into our sun signs as we age- or was that the opposite way around?

I'm sorry I have so many questions, but if anyone could read/comment, I'd be very grateful.

An important factor to keep in mind
is no one is either "right" or "wrong"
just simply that astrologers use multiple astrological methodologies
and also astrologers have multiple opinions :smile:

for example
before you go bananas over the "all or nothing"
consider the IS PLUTO AN ASTROLOGICAL PLANET discussion thread
http://www.astrologyweekly.com/forum/showthread.php?t=80531


another example of different opinions leading to multiple methodologies is:
we have a Traditional Astrology board, Modern Astrology board, Vedic Astrology board, Chinese Astrology board and so on

also there is SIDEREAL as well as TROPICAL measurement
the video provides visual explanation plus voice over at

5.What gives more weight to a natal chart reading
- what planet is each house,

or the sign in a house,

or where the ruler of that house is placed?


6. I read somewhere that we 'grow' into our sun signs as we age
- or was that the opposite way around?

I'm sorry I have so many questions, but if anyone could read/comment,
I'd be very grateful.

the basics are :smile:


A PLANET acts


A HOUSE shows the area of life
in which the planet acts


as well as
how strongly the planet can act


and


A SIGN shows the quality of the planet's expression.

so then

working from that idea
one can build on it



by
i.e.

- selecting a natal planet
studying the house location of the natal planet
Assessing how comfortable the natal planet is in that natal sign
Checking what the natal planet rules in the natal chart

To do so
an understanding of planetary dignity and debility

is useful
for assessing how comfortable a planet is in a particular sign

Thank you for the reply!
I understand astrology isn't set in stone, it's meant to be a tool to help us understand ourselves. I would just like to know if there are different ways to interpret this in Western astrology specifically (for example, Uranus might indicate a partner or partnerships in the scientific field). I just see the readings separately, but I don't understand how they might go/ affect each other.
