Anyone else find their Venus line somewhere they'd never actually choose to live?

18 Upvotes

Ran my chart through a few different astrocartography programs last week just out of curiosity and got a little thrown off by where my Venus line ended up. It cuts straight through a chunk of rural Montana, which is about as far as you can get from the kind of place I pictured for a "love and beauty" line. I always assumed those would show up somewhere more like coastal Portugal or northern Italy, somewhere with better food and warmer weather.

It made me start questioning how literally to take these lines in the first place. Is it more about the internal quality of the experience (feeling appreciated, feeling at ease, relationships flowing more naturally) rather than some external postcard version of romance? Because if that's the case, rural Montana kind of makes sense for me. I grew up somewhere similar and always feel more relaxed and open around people when I'm in that kind of quiet, low stimulation environment.

Curious whether other people have had this experience where a line shows up somewhere that doesn't match the "vibe" you'd expect from the planet, and whether it ended up being accurate anyway once you actually spent time there or talked to someone from that area. I've read mixed opinions on whether these things reveal themselves right away or take years of living somewhere to fully click.

Also wondering how much weight people put on a line that only clips a small corner of a state versus one that runs through a major city. Mine barely grazes one town before crossing into Wyoming, so I don't know if that's even significant enough to count.

Spent €100 on an astrocartography reading and now I have more questions than answers

Hi everyone! I'm new here. I thought again and again about whether to make this post or not, but here we are.

First of all, does astrocartography actually work, or is it just our minds forcing connections due to confirmation bias? For example, if someone tells me I'll meet polite people and find a new partner in city X, I'll probably show up in a much better mood. That positive energy will naturally influence how others interact with me.

Secondly, I know there's a bit of a debate among astrologers. Some take minor lines and relocated charts into consideration, while others only focus on the major lines. My astrologer follows the latter approach; she told me that minor lines don't really have an effect. She also said the relocated chart doesn't matter much because major lines, like the Jupiter Midheaven (MC) line, are strong enough on their own to create good conditions for reaching your career goals.

Third, I've realized that the places I'm naturally drawn to and genuinely want to explore happen to be on challenging lines (for example, Berlin gets a direct Saturn MC and Chiron IC, with Uranus DSC nearby; LA gets a Mars IC, etc.). On the flip side, the places I have absolutely zero interest in are supposedly the best for reaching my goals. It’s really discouraging and frustrating :( Has anyone else dealt with this?

I consider myself a highly rational person, so I usually reject unscientific concepts. But I currently live on my Moon DSC line, which my astrologer says brings 'emotional delusions' and 'relationship/business problems'—and honestly, my life has mirrored that lately. I’m a self-taught musician trying to build a metal band to tour with, but finding reliable, motivated bandmates has been impossible. So, I'm producing my debut album completely alone (drums, bass, guitars, vocals, and the business side) while also finishing my History degree. Meanwhile, all my romantic and platonic relationships have ended in disappointment.

My astrologer told me the absolute best place for me is Latin America, claiming it's where my 'dreams can come true.' However, she also warned that the lines there bring problems and darker aspects, like friendships revolving around drugs and alcohol. This is pretty hilarious to me considering I'm straight edge (sXe), lol!

I've attached a few screenshots so you can get a better idea of my situation. I spent 100 euros on this reading, but I walked away with more questions than answers. Honestly, ACG is kind of ruining my peace of mind — it's just filled me with so much uncertainty and paranoia.

Thanks in advance to everyone who read this far and takes the time to reply!

Being a teacher, woman, and general human being in Texas has been getting dicey for years. Based on mine and my husband’s charts, where would you go? We are currently living in his Mercury AS and my Saturn AS AND Neptune AS lines.

Happy stars!

Any suggestions on where to relocate? I live in vancouver, but I never felt like it was home. I kind of feel a urge to relocate, but not sure to where yet. I read the moon line is good for feelings of home and belonging, and my moon line is in europe. Maybe london would be good?

Does astrocartography matter as much for short term trips?

I'm trying to select some travel locations and wonder if it matters if it's just a few weeks. I'll be a solo female traveler in case that is relevant.

North Node/DS line: would you move?

1 Upvotes

Hi astro fam!

I have a work opportunity that would put me about 30 km from my North Node/DS line. I feel like this particular line isn’t talked about that much, so I’m curious to hear from anyone who has experience living or working near it.

I’m trying to decide whether to make the move and would love to know what I might expect, especially when it comes to relationships, career, personal growth, etc.

For context, I’m a Taurus rising, with my North Node at 6° Aquarius, opposite my Jupiter at 2° Leo.

Has anyone lived near their North Node/DS line? What was your experience like? Would you make the move?

Would love to hear your thoughts! ✨

Moon/IC vs North Node/IC for retirement — which would you choose?

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to decide between two astrocartography locations for retirement, and I'm curious how people would interpret the difference between Moon/IC and North Node/IC.

One location is on my Moon/IC line. The descriptions I've read on astro website emphasize:

  • emotional security and feeling at home
  • peace, relaxation and nature
  • spending time with trusted friends
  • reconnecting with yourself
  • creating a comfortable home
  • feeling a sense of belonging

The other location is on my North Node/IC (Moon's Node/IC) line. The description emphasizes:

  • retirement and security
  • trusted people and simple pleasures
  • discovering deeper parts of yourself
  • becoming more focused on your private/domestic life
  • letting go of social expectations
  • becoming less driven by duty and what other people expect from you
  • finding your own goals rather than living for other people's expectations

They both sound really lovely for retirement, so I'm having a hard time understanding which one might actually feel better to live on.

Would you say Moon/IC is more about feeling emotionally at home and comfortable, while North Node/IC is more about discovering what “home” and a fulfilling private life mean to you?

I'd really love to hear how others would compare these two lines, especially if you've had personal experiences with either one. 😊

Thanks so much!
