Thanks for all the input guys, I appreciate it!
You were pretty spot on kimbermoon, I lost my dad when I was young. If saturn represents fear as well, that could explain why I get nervous around young children.
Hi,
The chart also shows that MEAN Black Moon Lilith
lilth
in the 5th house would also be part of the T-square. Adverse aspects between Sun and MEAN BML have so often coincided with the effect of an 'absent father' influence, yet in a different manner to that expressed by Kimbermoon through Saturn in Aquarius (I expressed similar thoughts in reply #11 of 'Strange Symptoms'on the medical astrology board).
There is an stressful aspect between Moon-Sun that, for many, would be suggestive of a parental relationship that has a strong influence upon the child. If it isn't being too personal to ask, Brooke, did your biological father play a significant role in your young upbringing by his presence in, or absence from it? Could BML in Aquarius refer to a non-related step-father and the effect this has had as part of the T-square configuration?
You are a young adult born into a 'time-capsule' generation in which 'child-minding' has become a way of life for those have children. Yet the child can become the (un)expected or (un)acceptable 'appendage' to the mother's personally desired life style, rather than the true desire within it. Often, the non-related 'pseudo-mother' see(m)s more to the child than the biological parent, from which it can eventually become emotionally alienated(Aquarius).
BML in Aquarius has been observed to show this sense of emotional alienation with and towards another because it is in the one sign in which its deep inner need for emotional freedom can run its course (interchange the c and s and you get 'source'
) without any sense of shame or guilt.
The 'single person', 'gay divorcee', 'one'-'adoptive' or 'pseudo-parent', 'chosen childlessness' have all been roles that coincided with a 5th house BML in Aquarius.
Slightly off topic but related to Saturn, I've read that for T-squares/T-Cross, the way to "balance" it out is to focus on the planet directly across from the planet at the 90 degree angle.

That would be Mars in Gemini in the 9th house,
I've researched this and am still a little lost. What would you say about this trio?
I hope someone will also be prepared to comment upon the relevance of this.
As I have always understood it to mean, a T-square finds its 'balance' in the empty leg of the sign on the grand cross to which it belongs. The T-square is in the
fixed signs, the empty leg of which is (untenanted)Taurus. Even taking Pluto as the apex of the T-square, its opposing sign/house will still be Taurus and the 8th house and not Mars in Gemini in the 9th house.
This would place significance upon the position of the ruler of Taurus, which is Venus in virgo in the 12th house.
Does anyone relate to Mars, as ruler 8th house cusp and empty leg of
fixed houses, as the more important factor regarding the T-square, especially as Taurus is untenanted?
Would Venus of Taurus relate more to character, and Mars as ruler of 8th house to circumstances?
