Aspects of the Big 3...





Continuing from yesterday Richard's chart shows a theme of father or father figure issues as suggested by the big 3 placement in his chart. In astrology if there are any aspects between the sun and the moon they are said to give you insight into the father (sun) and the mother's (moon) relationship when their child comes into the world. Here we have a sextile relationship with the sun and moon meaning that mom and dad genuinely liked one another at the time Richard was born. This means that his father had a beneficial impact on young Rich's life being seen as a strong productive individual whose authority was accepted by all. Richard's emotional state is in unison with his spiritual state. Being an air sign again we see that Richard would rather think about his feelings than actually feeling them. 
 
Aspects affecting the Ascendant
Ascendant opposing mars
the ascendant tells us what action we are trying to take. Mars is the planet that tells us how to take action. due to this being an opposing aspect it is harder to see how this energy manifests itself and hard to energize the creative potential within the personality.
 
Ascendant sextile Jupiter 
Here the ascendant is the indicator of how we project our persona. Jupiter indicates how we relate ourselves to others, and how we relate to our personal needs. For Rich it shows that he relates to others by opening up in a manner that compliments the personality that he has put forth. 
 
Ascendant sextile Saturn
The key term here is caution/ circumspection. this shows that Rich was raised in an environment of careful decision making. chores and values go hand in hand with authority and tradition.The childhood environment encouraged adult actions taken.
 
Ascendant conjunct Uranus
this is the blending of how the persona will manifest with the ability to develop consciousness or the capacity for eccentric behavior. In a conjunction, this is a unique aspect. the qualities of the rising sign will enhance (Sagittarius) approach to life will be unconventional, unorthodox and Rich's personality will have to manifest a more highly conscious reflection of the rising sing qualities. What this means is that Richard may be a GEMINI but his personality persona is more akin to a Sagittarius; the opposite and complementary side of Gemini.   
 
Aspects affecting the Sun
Sun opposing Neptune
It looks like the sun is opposing Neptune... The "I am" is being subjected to the world of dreams, illusions and fantasy. With this placement it is easy to let the fantasy world rule you but if you can focus on the inspiration and not the delusional it will be okay. Richard needs to learn how to mesh his inspiration/ delusions into qualities of self hood. Because it is the sun opposing Neptune there is a sense of loss and need for compromise. The father (sun) is more involved with himself than Richard and as a result Richard becomes ignored. this confusion makes Richard doubt himself and who he is as a person. Neptune opposing the sun can also mean that either Rich romanticized or cast aspersions onto him so Richard isn't really sure who his father is. This results in Richard creating his won fantasy world where he can escape into since he now feels that he is living a lie. Because of this distorted sense of the individuals personal reality Richard will learn to become very intuitive and psychic. As this is carried with Richard into adulthood it will manifest as difficulties forming a loving relationship. Expectations are put on high when Relationships are concerned and can be unrealistic and full of fantasy. Neptune shows that his feelings are often hurt by too many people too often which causes a shell around his heart. The main thing that this aspect shares is that much of Richard's difficulty in this area can be traced to his father for being in his own spiritual world instead of paying attention to his own son. On a good note: this aspect makes him highly creative. 
 
Sun trine Pluto
The "I am" being subjected to the collective unconsciousness. This is a transformation the needs to be gone through in order to learn valuable lessons about yourself. Pluto causes a feeling of uprooting,  being overwhelmed by someone or something that is bigger than us, and stronger than us in order to learn to let go of our obsessions, control and trust in the universe. this is a two level manifestation of Rich's soul making a constructive trip: 1 rich is going along for the ride allowing him to enjoy all the things of contemporary culture or 2 Richard has the energy and talent to work cooperatively with traditional manage mental concerns dedicated to doing something for humanity. As long as Richard is involved in some kind of group endeavor this energy will manifest in a constructive way. At least at this age Rich's father doesn't show him a negative work world and makes Richard feel more secure.
 
Aspects affecting the Moon
Moon aspects
The moon represents how we respond emotionally to everything. It governs how we react to our world experiences, emotional experiences directed towards us,what we respond to in terms of love poetry, and politics. It also represents the physical mother at the time of birth.
 
Moon trine Neptune
Neptune represents our inspiration-delusion-creativity function, spiritual development, creative urges, universal or impersonal love and shows us how we delude ourselves. It shows that we associate our spiritual urges with our emotional responses. With the contact of the moon this indicates that Rich was born into a home where spiritual development was very important to the mother. since this energy aspect fosters spiritual insight Rich would benefit from meditation  expressing his creativity, and a chance to grow spiritually. Richard thought that he had to follow his mothers spiritual guide and tried to avoid learning these lessons  but we must find our own spiritual path. This aspect can cause Richard to forget about finding love here in this world because he is so caught up in finding universal love in the "spirit." His creativity is limited as long as the body will not permit emotional relationships. Since Richard displays his love spiritually he is used to conveying that in relationships. Since his body is the "temple of the soul" it needs to be nourished and loved as much as the soul it houses. Once Richard learns that he may find himself in a close relationship sharing both mentally and physically. 
 
Putting it all together
So what exactly does all of this mean? well It looks like Richard's father is the reason that he has shaped his life in the way that he has whether or not he realized it. That both parents neglect of Richard in an emotional way still carries with him into adulthood manifesting in his relationships or lack there of.  That his mother, although loving and nurturing, pushed Richard to be on the spiritual fast track but didn't explain that her path may not be his path which may have given him a distaste for spiritual endeavors early on in childhood. If he works at it he can get back to the positive spirit. Both parents to some degree lived in their own little private worlds in which Richard wasn't a part of confusing him even more. This "emotional loss" is the sole reason why Richard acts the way that he does in  any kind of relationships. Making unreal expectations onto women whom he knows can never measure up to either his ideal of his mother or to the perfected images that he has of her.  Due to his father's emotional unavailability Richard grew up feeling emotionally neglected and pushed toward more escaping facets of his life. It seems that reading religious books, spiritual endeavors and meditation will help Richard in finding balance and centering of himself. but most importantly we learned that in order to be the person that Richard wants to be he's going to need to let go of all of his preconceived notions that he learned from his father and make new ideas that are suited to himself; not to others. That the ideals that a woman should embrace may not be the same ones that he embraces with his mother.  If it wasn't for his parents and them being romanticized in his head Richard might have let go of these things that are holding him back in life now and be the better version of himself that he can be.
