I'm attending a University and I would like to know why second semester ( January- May) is always difficult for me. I'm a 13 sign Pisces

THE BIRTH CHART is always being activated by the transiting planets as well as the Moon, which is always waxing and waning. That's a key to the Pisces sign, which, like water, finds its own level and confronts opposition with fluid motion. If not seasonal or health-related, your lethargy (?) during this time may be your having to swim around otherwise dead end streets. The final word on Pisces is they are often victims and attract abusive or dominant characters in their lives. Anyway, ALL Pisces need a hidey-hole somewhere in their lives. To get the whole picture, get a natal report and a transit report, if you're serious.

I assume you are using your Siderealist 13 chart when you are discussing your chart. With all of those placements in the first house yes it may seem quite challenging lol but if your northnode is indeed in the 7th house then it would mean that you are moving in a direction of relationships. What sign is it in? It could mean a lot of different things.

Hey what's good. Are the houses in different positions in sidereal astrology?

I'd also really like a personal reading, or at least to be pointed in the direction of something similar to Cafe Astrology's birth chart reading, since this would essentially tear apart my entire sense of identity. I'm quite happy being a Venus-centric Sagittarius with Mars in his 12th in Gemini, opposing Venus and Sun... Though Ophiuchis would explain myself and several of my other early December Sagittarius friends' distinctly violent, free-spirited, energetic, outcast, and gender fluid personalities...

Either way my Sun is still square with Midheaven so I have a long road ahead of me lolz

Yes the house system is still the same and a lot of the time of the astrologer is using the right format the aspects are the same. For a reading visit Siderealist.com/Howard.html I'd like to take a look at your chart before saying what's what but I would definitely say you are an Ophiuchus at heart. Outcast, questions authority, clairvoyant, very free and hip lol thanks for posting!

Hi. I was pondering how to get more information from a 13' sign sidereal system. I've found nothing here to know anything else than my sun sign (as it is for you anyway).

Here I am : if i use a tropical birth chart, i'm a sun scorpio, ascendant virgo, moon capricorn, MH gemini.
If I use a vedic birth chart, i'm a sun libra, ascendant virgo, moon sagitarius.


Moreover, I don't get your comparative page ( siderealist.com/calendar_sidereal.html ). It says :

Virgo

23 August – tropical
23 September

16 September - sidereal
15 October

16 September – 13 signs
30 October


Libra

24 September – tro
23 October


16 October - side
16 November

31 October – 13s
22 November

So i should clearly be a VIRGO.

BUT you can find on this page : siderealist.com/changing_your_sign.html

Tropical Libra changes to >Sidereal 13 sign Virgo
Virgo is born between Sept 16 - Oct 30*

Tropical Scorpio changes to >Sidereal 13 sign Libra
Libra is born between Oct 16 - Nov 15*

Tropical Sagittarius changes to >Sidereal 13 sign Scorpio
Scorpio is born between Nov 23- Nov 29*

How the heck Am i supposed to read this ? If this is a copy error, I happy to point out this flaw. If it's not, then please explain why days disapear between nov 15 (end or livra) and nov 23 (start of scorpio) and why from oct 16 we can be libra or virgo, depending of I don't know ?

Thank you for posting. The first comparative link ican indeed be quite confusing yes to say the least. Our apologies, The changing your signs link is the most accurate list of dates of the zodiac and here's why. Tropical astrology is based off of the seasons. Fall, winter, spring, summer. It has absolutely nothing to do with where the actual placement of the stars were during the time you were born. Tropical and sidereal astrology are both pretty much round offs or estimates. Not accurate points. For a reading to get all of your placements and aspects fill out one of our forms and we will happily break down your real chart for you. Siderealist.com/Howard.html

The problem you are having is with the major fallacy of 12-sign astrology systems, that all the signs are equally 30 degrees, cusp to cusp. No, not true. Each constellation is of a different size and shape, etc, and holds a different space on the ecliptic. So, Virgo, which is a large constellation has a 46 degree space in the Zodiac, not the equal pizza-slice house system used by 12 sign astrologers. The fact that you are dumbfounded by the the actual astronomical placements of the constellations just goes to show how pervasive 12-sign astrology is, and how brainwashed they have made the people who believe in it.

Only the 13 sign system is accurate as to the boundaries of the signs, all 13 of them. If the comparison calendar at siderealist.com/calendar_sidereal.html says you're a virgo in 13-signs , then you're a virgo! If you want an entire horoscope. you should get a reading from 13sign.com

Let's take a look at Hip hop artist Kendrick Lamar's chart (below). He has his Sun and Venus in Taurus. Although we don't know his time of birth, and the exact position of the Moon, we do know it's in Aquarius. This is why he's interested in the higher consciousness of this air sign, and why his lyrics are dense with stories about his difficult youth and experience with pain and death. With Chiron also in Taurus, he suffers from a poor body image and also perhaps is too connected to past hurts stemming from his family systems and childhood patterns. Like other Taurus singers and rappers (Tupac and Biggie, Prince, Alanis Morisette and Janis Jackson, among others) he's unconsciously sexy and feels most of his emotions very viscerally. His body talks to him the same way that other signs use religion to keep themselves motivated and active. His Jupiter square mercury and Mars conjunction keeps him from feeling the big ego boost from fame and fortune. as big as he gets, he'll always have difficulty managing his fears and poor self-esteem. As a hiphop artist, he is going back to basics, trying to avoid getting a big head, and overconfidence. He's second guessing himself from past experience. His greatest strength is his lack of pomposity and bragging in his songs. He's humble and cynical, with the inner sadness of his generation (His Saturn and Uranus are both in the persecuted sign of Ophiuchus.

Lamar gets his strength from other people, women especially. Most Taurus are collectors of objects and wealth, but Lamar, like Malcolm X, is a collector of souls. He needs women in his life to keep him from ruminating about the power that women have over him. His Lilith and Black Moon are also in Taurus and they are conjunct with his Sun. This is one man who cannot escape the dark side of female sexuality and their deepest resentments. Lamar hears the voice of women, and yet, cannot turn himself over them. His girlfriend--as far as we can tell from the press, is an Aries. This powerful sign (see her chart at the bottom of the page) makes her almost more passionate and domineering, the components we associate with masculinity. Her chart reveals an Aries Sun and mercury in Aries: the same placements found in some tyrants and bullies, like Adolph Hitler. With her Mars in Sagittarius, she provides the fire and inspiration to get Lamar off his ass and into the public arena. Lamar owes his success to her and other influences which normally he couldn't have reached out to get by himself. Her Moon is a bit of a puzzle. If she was in the early morning, her Moon is in Taurus, which would weld them together in deep emotional ways that could last a lifetime. Born later in the day, she would have a Gemini Moon, which would make her verbose and changeable, a never ending collection of various personalities that could both fascinate and dominate his love life. The Gemini influence would also keep him guessing and make his impulse to hoard her and add her as a trophy to his mantelpiece very difficult.

Kendrick Lamar has changed hiphop forever, eschewing the gangster-thug image and replacing it with humanity and a deeper understanding of human nature, his great gift to a musical gen re that has been dominated by blowhards and bumpkins who can only shout and scream about how bad, bad, bad they are. Lamar breaks the mold!
