Maybe you have always known your son signed, but you just found out that you have a moon sign and a rising sign, and you want to know what they mean, or you're starting to look at astrological birth charts and you're not sure where to start. If this is you, you are certainly not alone and you are in the right place.
00:00:17:10 – 00:00:49:22
Amanda
Today we have with us a professional astrologer who has spent decades studying, practicing, and now teaching astrology. She is a very popular YouTube channel. She's a brilliant astrologer and just an awesome human being. And her name is Astro Lada. Lot of makes learning the complex language of astrology simple, clear, and immediately applicable. And that is why I invited her here for this particular episode.
00:00:49:24 – 00:00:54:18
Amanda
Lotta, welcome back to the Astrology Hub podcast. I am so happy you're here.
00:00:54:20 – 00:01:10:01
Lada
Thank you so much for having me on again, Amanda. I absolutely love being on your podcast. I love you as a human being. We've known each other for quite seven years now that we met once, and I'm honored to be your guest.
00:01:10:03 – 00:01:26:12
Amanda
Yes. All right. Well, so and today we're talking about something that, you know, I don't know if this happens to you, but oftentimes I'll meet people who don't know that much about astrology. They'll know their sun sign. And then when I say, well, what's your moon and what's your rising or what's your big three? They look at me like a deer in the headlights, like.
00:01:26:18 – 00:01:47:19
Amanda
But there's more. So this is such a great starting point for people and for anybody. If you're already deeply into astrology, it's always nice to hear how different astrologers interpret things, right? So this is for you too, but let's just talk with the talk about the fundamentals. So the sun, the moon and rising, what they are, what they represent and why they're so important.
00:01:47:23 – 00:02:12:01
Lada
I'm so happy because when I started my YouTube channel in 2009. Oh, yeah, the channels, all the magazines, they would only give you the sun sign and they didn't even call it sun sign it. It'll be areas. Virgo. And I was like, I cannot work like that. I have to introduce people to seminars. And then and in all my videos I started saying, if it's your sun, moon or ascendant here, what it means is very important.
00:02:12:01 – 00:02:36:13
Lada
People want to know the subtle difference between the three of them, because each one of those points the sun, the moon, and the center can be taken as a starting point of the horoscope. Meaning you read the rest of the chart from that sign on. Or say, if you're a Pisces Sun, you can put the Pisces like being as your first sign, your first house, and after that areas will be a second house, and so on.
00:02:36:13 – 00:03:04:10
Lada
But you can do both. Some London and send them the three self points in the horoscope. They are deeply representing yourself, different aspects of yourself. So every time you look at your horoscope, whether it's a sun, moon or ascendant or something transits, there is something specifically to you will happen because other planets can represent other people in our lives like Venus can be women, Mercury can be even siblings of friends.
00:03:04:10 – 00:03:25:06
Lada
Saturn can be parent of some sort as well, but someone else are always one of the self factors as we call it. So what is the difference you send them is the most specific of the three. Everyone born in April will be areas most people born in April. The first 20 days will be there. Sun is the nearest when they're born.
00:03:25:08 – 00:03:52:17
Lada
The sun changes its sign once every 30 days. The moon is the second most person, so the moon changes the sign every two and a half days. So even if you don't know the time of birth, you know the day. Very likely you find out what your mood sign is, but it's actually more specific. It will tell you about your character even more than the sun sign, because look how much faster the moon changes.
00:03:52:19 – 00:04:18:03
Lada
It's not everyone in April is areas. So in, June is Gemini. This is every two days. It's a new moon sign. And then the ascendant sign is the most personal. Actually, in ancient Greece, though, that's someone. What is your sign? They'll tell their to send them. Sign. Because this is the ascendant is what sign was rising on the eastern horizon at the moment.
00:04:18:03 – 00:04:44:14
Lada
The minute, the hour you were born. The. Because we know the sun, the earth spins. So in every 24 hours it spins. And on the eastern horizon, each of the 12 signs come within those 24 hours. So for about two and a half, sometimes two, sometimes 2.5 hours, the ascendant changes its sign. And this is your most specific imprint.
00:04:44:14 – 00:05:10:03
Lada
And the ascendant is known in as a direct astrology to be the point of interest of the soul from the East the soul enters. We know maybe it's not so East-West, but somehow the mystics describe it that the soul and just from the eastern horizon, even if the sun is not rising, then maybe it's midnight when you are born, maybe midday, but from the east, because the new comes from the east.
00:05:10:05 – 00:05:35:07
Lada
And we know in the West is where it dies, the it goes away. So the east is the direction of new beginnings, where the sun rises and the souls enter from then the moment, then this through a certain sign. This becomes your life path. So the ascendant sign is the most personal and it determines your life. But the course, it determines all the other houses in the horoscope.
00:05:35:09 – 00:05:58:21
Lada
Say you are born with Taurus Ascendant. So maybe it was afternoon. The sun was starting to set a little bit, you know. But at that moment the sign Taurus is on the eastern horizon and your soul enters into your body. This is the first breath you take, actually the soul. The first moment, the first breath you take with the breath.
00:05:58:23 – 00:06:23:04
Lada
The program for your life is being, imprinted with the first breath of, of the child. And you absorb all the abrasions of where planets are, and it becomes your imprint from which you can start developing onwards. Let's say you enter here from Taurus, and it it's like a picture of the sky. This moment. It sets determined.
00:06:23:04 – 00:06:58:24
Lada
So the other houses and the houses show different life areas. So if someone is born with Taurus Ascendant, the second house will be Gemini. Many will be very dominion in approach to money. The siblings will be cancer house, the family will be near house and so on. It sets the houses. It sets the specific life themes. That's why the ascendant is if you go to a professional astrological reading, they'll they'll look at your horoscope from the ascendant sign and the houses from then on, and they would actually pay attention where the sun and the moon are situated when you are born.
00:06:59:01 – 00:07:22:02
Lada
In regards to this ascendant sign, is it here? Is it here the moon? Where is the sun? And they'll determine the houses. say someone born with Taurus. With the moon in the fifth house. This will show that this person. And what is the moon? So the ascendant is the most the path is the most faith of the of the three signs.
00:07:22:02 – 00:07:48:04
Lada
Someone who said that is the most, let's say, set in stone. Because when you're born, you born in the certain family, with certain parents, with certain genetics, with certain predispositions, this is all something that is determined by the ascendant. Your parents, a lot of your personal as well. Temperament. The physical body is very much the ascendant. Not just the looks, but your whole construction, but the ascendant.
00:07:48:04 – 00:08:16:06
Lada
You can see someone's to ascend them. If it's no planets there to give different influence. They have very specific appearance. For example, Taurus Ascendant people, those have this kind of voluptuousness with lips bigger, the sensuality, the richness to the look, this cheekiness, maybe a more rounded nose. This, there is this Mother Earth blossoming, someone with Aquarius rising.
00:08:16:06 – 00:08:44:08
Lada
The human sign. They'll have a very humane look. Very intelligent look, man. The man in Aquarius rising. Okay, there is this. You know, there's very. Usually the forehead is big, so the ascendant will give you even the appearance. If there is no planet there, the if there is a planet, it will totally color the appearance. So it will be the things that the most faith that is the ascendant, the path that you're walking here, you know how there's things are predetermined for us.
00:08:44:08 – 00:09:08:03
Lada
What family comes from whatever your ascendant is. The fourth house will be what your family is born into, what partners you go to track. This determines a lot of them. They say we have 75, 50% is predetermined, predetermined, 25% is dependent on the reaction of others, and 25% is our freewill, which is usually our response to what is predetermined.
00:09:08:05 – 00:09:32:06
Lada
But we do have 25% freewill. And I'll show you that the freewill comes from the sun, but the ascendant is one of those probably 50% that is predetermined. You cannot change a family here looks oh, we can now. But those genetics there the path of life you're going to walk in and the environment around you that you're going to encounter.
00:09:32:08 – 00:09:55:04
Lada
So usually when you look at listen to your horoscope on the internet or whatever, and you're listen for me, send them. It is the part that it's probably most likely to manifest in the material level. Again, we cannot be fully always that every prediction will be correct because the houses move sometimes depends on degree of your centeredness and so on.
00:09:55:06 – 00:10:15:04
Lada
But still, it's very important for people always to check the ascendant, sign it, then only they know the exact time. Our minutes of birth. Of course, the place you see how specific ascendant is, you cannot see the ascendant without the place of birth, the hour and the minute, because it can change in five minutes, and you might be difference in them.
00:10:15:06 – 00:10:44:21
Lada
And hope, both in life and appearance, would be very different. I even have charts of twins who are born three minutes apart, three minutes apart, but they look very different. One is very wide, the other one is much more darker. The life paths became very different because within those three minutes the ascendant role changed and it went from Sagittarius to Capricorn, and the one became basically, much more Capricorn.
00:10:44:21 – 00:11:04:19
Lada
And in the 80s she became a lawyer, and she was like the darker color, slimmer. The other one, the surgery, she's lighter with her ascendant. Everything else is the same for them. All the rest of the planets, they do not move. Within those three, four minutes, the Sagittarius one started traveling. She became much more of a free spirit.
00:11:04:21 – 00:11:14:22
Lada
went way more into other kind of more humanistic direction. So you see how this is so important? The ascendant can change. You know.
00:11:14:24 – 00:11:30:15
Amanda
A lot of this is something we've been doing throughout the whole show that if anybody is confused about, they would be driven mad by now. But I keep saying rising and you say ascendant, it's the same thing, right? It's the same thing. So that it's entertaining. It's interchangeable essentially. it's.
00:11:30:17 – 00:11:31:21
Lada
The horizon that.
00:11:31:21 – 00:11:52:21
Amanda
Based on the horizon, what is rising or ascending on the horizon at the moment of your birth? A couple of questions here. A lot of so number one, if you don't know your birth time, is that when you do you recommend to people. First of all, I know there's chart rectification, which is a whole thing if you're really if you don't know your birth time, you can't find your birth time.
00:11:52:21 – 00:12:03:21
Amanda
Absolutely. Then there's a path you can go down called chart rectification. And there are certain astrologers who special analyzing that, which is basically helping you find that birth time by working backwards.
00:12:03:24 – 00:12:13:15
Lada
You can find it now I've become with professional dancer. I'll not tell him the time births of people I know for sure and he'll those to the minute.
00:12:13:17 – 00:12:21:23
Amanda
That's an amazing suggestion. A lot of thank you. Nobody has said that before. I love that though. So dowsing chart rectification as well.
00:12:21:24 – 00:12:23:00
Lada
Muscle testing.
00:12:23:00 – 00:12:42:22
Amanda
Right. Muscle testing. Do you do, do you. But when people really just don't know. So so for example, we have a free report that anyone can go download right now that is about your big three, and it'll help you get a reading on your sun, moon and rising. You can go to astrology webcomic big three, and that's three spelled out free.
00:12:42:24 – 00:12:57:17
Amanda
If you don't know your birth time, you can just put in 12 p.m., right? Is that is that sort of the standard? Put 12 p.m. in and see if you can hunt down that birth time to get even more accurate. But the sun in the moon is going to be is going to be. Well, the sun will be accurate.
00:12:57:19 – 00:13:25:02
Lada
Check your moon side because it's the second most personal and the moon sign is the Astro. The ascendant is the physical. The moon is now goes to the astral, the emotional level. The moon is the astral influences. And it's a bit. We don't have much free will there as well, because the moon is connected with the subconscious, with the emotions, with the how we were programed in our family.
00:13:25:04 – 00:13:49:00
Lada
So not only in the family, but also in previous lifetimes. The moon is connected from previous lifetime experiences were most comfortable in previous lifetime. Someone with moon in Scorpio conjunct Saturn or Pluto. They were probably persecuted killed in the past lifetime. That's all. And this will repeat in their early lifetime. Maybe a family that is with more intense experiences and so on.
00:13:49:02 – 00:14:15:02
Lada
But we usually recapitulate with the moon in our early childhood environment environments that we were familiar with from past lifetimes before, and that's been one in something that's very difficult to change, to change how you feel about yourself, to change how, moon shows you how can you self-soothe your emotions when things are tense? If anything, the most important planet to have good is the moon.
00:14:15:04 – 00:14:38:10
Lada
Because someone with a strong moon, they're very adaptable. They can emotionally attune to whatever changes are happening around them. Then they stay sane. When the moon is very hurt, you can have mental health issues, you can have anxiety, nervousness, and the moon is also connected to the health more to the female health and to the menstrual and reproductive organs.
00:14:38:10 – 00:15:07:11
Lada
In some ways, but also any psychosomatic illnesses that come because of stress and the emotional situation. But the moon is probably if you are a woman, definitely check your moon sign always because women are more emotional beings. The moon, if you are born, doesn't matter what you identify with. If you are born with female sexual organs as a child, the moon will always influence you very strong.
00:15:07:13 – 00:15:26:22
Lada
And. And even if you are not the woman, the moon will influence you very strong. If you are born at night. Which means that to be born at night, you know how the chart has a line here in the middle when you look astro.com or whatever. If the sun is anywhere below this, it means the sun has set.
00:15:27:02 – 00:15:51:06
Lada
When you are born or hasn't risen yet, it's below the horizon. So check your chart. Is there is a line where the sun is here. You're born at night. If the moment the sun is above crosses this line, the ascendant descendant line your day born. So people born at night. So the sun is here. The moon becomes the more important planet of the two.
00:15:51:09 – 00:16:15:03
Lada
The sun and the moon. It becomes more potent for you. For example, I was born at night, so I feel my moon sign extremely powerfully. as a child, like everyone would look at me and say, are you Leo something? And because my moon is, it becomes the light for you. because everyone has light. It's the sun or the moon.
00:16:15:05 – 00:16:36:17
Lada
If you are born at night, the light for you is the moon. If you're born day, the light will use the sun. And it makes you more practice. Born at night. People are a bit more, let's say on the inside. While born day on the young side. Yin and yang. You know I know that you are born during the day when the sun was rising already.
00:16:36:19 – 00:17:00:06
Lada
So you sun is above horizon. You have a bit more of the solar cord. The sun becomes very strongly pronounced in you. This Capricorn qualities that you have will be very visible for you. I know that your moon is very pale. I mean you have moon in Gemini. I can also feel it, but the way your whole life is organized is so structured, so organized, so professional with everything.
00:17:00:09 – 00:17:28:11
Lada
You are a solar being. I'm a lunar being, so that's very important. So if you're born during the day like you, your sun sign will be extremely important to check in your predictions. And many times you identify a lot with the predictions from your sun sign. Always check the ascendant sign. That's non-negotiable. This is your kind of determined path, but with the sun sign, if your day born or if you are a man or woman, the sun sign.
00:17:28:11 – 00:17:54:16
Lada
Because it's a masculine planet, they tend to identify more with it and women tend to identify strongly with the, moon sign as well, because it's just the maybe not women in the West anymore, you know, because it's kind of it's the more receptive. It's your subconscious women that are very busy all the time that are always competing into the world.
00:17:54:18 – 00:18:19:16
Lada
they kind of they cannot fully get in touch with the lunar side sometimes. But for women, it's very important. And that's why, those lunar, rituals that you do, they're very good for women. Oh, women respond to the moon. So they, they if they set up the intentions on New Moon and release old things on full moon, definitely.
00:18:19:18 – 00:18:43:20
Lada
women can benefit a lot more men who are more sensitive. Men who are more in touch with their feminine side with the cycle nature. So this is the moon, and it's kind of because it describes the programing we have from the environment, you know, do you feel comfortable in some people feel really comfortable when there's tension around when they're stressed.
00:18:43:22 – 00:19:10:19
Lada
And if they're two you say moon with Mars, moon in the more masculine spirit side. When things are calm, they go and they would unconsciously create some drama just so they can get some of the action. Or someone who has moon in Taurus, say with Venus, if the situation gets stressful, these people do not like it and they'll never and unconsciously the moon unconsciously attracts to it, whatever its qualities are.
00:19:10:21 – 00:19:38:16
Lada
That's why some people's life will be always turbulent, because that's what they feel comfortable in, while others lives will be always, like smooth and easy because they have a very, maybe smooth and easy and easygoing programing from Letho and from past lifetimes. And they'll be much more peaceful emotionally. But definitely the projection from your moon signs will it's again, it's not so much free will.
00:19:38:16 – 00:20:00:16
Lada
There is something that's almost programed to you. You can change it. You can. If you have a moon with a lot of hard aspects or in a difficult position, it's work. Usually through psychology. The moon responds really well to music, to psychology, to working with the feelings, with the emotions, to, getting in touch with your feminine side.
00:20:00:18 – 00:20:24:15
Lada
but the moon, that's with a lot of hard aspects needs to self-soothe. They have problems self-soothing. They will not soothe the children. Maybe they will not breast, but maybe they were left to cry themselves to sleep. Maybe worse things, you know? But, we need all to learn healthy ways of self-soothing. And that's the moon. And you have a moon in is a way for you to self-soothe.
00:20:24:15 – 00:20:54:02
Lada
Maybe to go for jogging, you know, areas, maybe to put a back to that that can, you know, release. So if you have a moon in Gemini, might be to start journaling or reading a book or talking with someone about your feelings. But having that, you know, you might want to dance, so you might want to have a one dramatic cry at your go out partying like something you know everyone needs to find their own way to self-soothe that are healthy, according to the moon sign.
00:20:54:04 – 00:21:27:11
Lada
And many times people tell me, you know what? My moon sign? If I check my moon sign, the prediction is so correct. Usually those are usually people born at night, but definitely. Actually Vedic astrology says that after the age of 50 you can just look at your horoscope only from the moon sign because they say that the physical which is the ascendant, starts waning down after 15 days, is not so important in the consciousness of the person, and they start identifying much more with the prediction from the moon sign.
00:21:27:11 – 00:21:51:11
Lada
After that, even till 50, they always read the chart in Vedic astrology, from the moon and from the ascendant. And the moon sign prediction will be the most personal for most people, because these are your feelings, you know, maybe from you send them. Transits are happening that says are you gonna, move or something? And you really kind of are moving somewhere.
00:21:51:13 – 00:22:19:09
Lada
But from your moon sign, the prediction says that you're going to feel extremely, you're going to meet someone, for example, that is emotionally going to impact you, and you only feel you even though notice that you've moved physically, you notice that you've met someone, something important because it's your feelings that are being impacted. You know, something might be happening in your external world, which is usually what the ascendant prediction is.
00:22:19:11 – 00:22:40:15
Lada
But if you don't respond to it emotionally, yeah, it happens, it goes. But the things that really hit you positively or negatively when your feelings are impacted very strongly. That's why the moon prediction is so important. And the moon sign and the moon house position. And then we get to the sun sign that changes once every 30 days.
00:22:40:15 – 00:23:05:11
Lada
Everyone just knows this. Since I know I'm Gemini, well, that's not the freewill we have. The 25% of freewill. It can be manifested through the sun, but you know that it's hard. This so actually takes the longest to start showing the ocean of your sun sign. Even from little people can say, oh, look at you, you're so serious.
00:23:05:11 – 00:23:27:02
Lada
You're such a Capricorn. You can show those things of the sun, but usually you need at least to be 30 and over, and you grow into your sun qualities. You are here basically to embody the sun qualities. The moon qualities come very naturally. 211 is problem with the one is, you know, the family environment, whatever. The mother is.
00:23:27:02 – 00:23:49:00
Lada
The moon, as we know as well. the ascendant is said and done. You're born with this genetics, but this life path, you know, and the sun goes not to the feelings anymore. Like the moon or the physical. Like this. And then the sun goes to the mental worlds. So it's the Astros or the devil channels we call it is the place of spirit.
00:23:49:02 – 00:24:15:03
Lada
The moon is the soul, the sun is the spirit. And that's where we have the free will. The free will. How to think that's and that's how free freewill comes to. The sun is a masculine planet that is connected to conscious thinking. The moon is also connected to thinking by the unconscious. Your mood, how you feel about things generally, but how you rationally think about things.
00:24:15:05 – 00:24:43:03
Lada
How you, your own individual, unique, creative thought is the sum. So the things for you can change in your horoscope starts with the sun, the position of the sun in your house, in your hip. For example, if you're really not liking your life, the circumstances, and usually the ascendant, moon connected and so on, focus on the sun and what sign it is and what causes it it is, and what aspects and how.
00:24:43:03 – 00:25:12:17
Lada
Start with the easy the sign of the sun, the house of the sun. Because this is your exit. Out of those 75% conditioning. Because with the free will that the sun gives us, you know, even in religion we say God gave humans free will, and that comes through the solar spark of individual creative mind. And the more you feed that sun and you feed that sun by, you know, focusing on the sign it is in on developing its higher qualities.
00:25:12:19 – 00:25:37:06
Lada
and the sun is a masculine planet, so you have to be proactive. It doesn't come to you. You go after that and try to be the better version of those things. The more you develop them, the more freewill you start having. It doesn't mean planets will still influence you astrologically, whatever. But you have. You choose how to think about those things, how to see them philosophically, how to interpret them.
00:25:37:06 – 00:26:00:17
Lada
This is the solar quality and what to create. You know, we say we are co-creators, but most of us live like we're not co-creators, that we cannot create our own reality. And to reason to to a few hundred years ago. astrologists. Or, you know, they only looked from ascendant. No sign, but only in the last few hundred years.
00:26:00:17 – 00:26:28:05
Lada
People are starting to act more from this sun sign because they are becoming more and more individuated and independent. The moon thinking is a tribal thinking. Whatever your family taught you, whatever the environment, whatever you were brainwashed or programed or or nurtured to to feel, to think the, ascendant is even more, you know, it's kind of like your ancestral, genetic predisposition.
00:26:28:07 – 00:26:46:15
Lada
The sun is your unique weight. How you can think different uniquely. The sun is the most unique energy in your horoscope. So that's why if you want a way out of a situation, don't like your life. Focus on the qualities of the sun. Focus on that house and you'll have more and more we will.
00:26:46:17 – 00:26:58:09
Amanda
Can you give us an example of that? I love what you're saying, and a lot of this is is sort of unique to the way I haven't heard astrologers explain this.
00:26:58:11 – 00:26:59:01
Lada
So.
00:26:59:01 – 00:27:24:12
Amanda
Clearly, as you are right now, and some of these nuances that you're bringing in. I also haven't heard a lot of astrologers talking about. So it's it's really fascinating when you say, if you're in a challenging situation in your life, the way out, or the part that you have the control over really is what you're saying. Like the part where you get to be in a co-creative relationship with the universe is through your son.
00:27:24:14 – 00:27:48:00
Lada
Okay, so I can be an example. So this is a chart of a woman who was very stuck and didn't know what to do with the life. And, usually no one feels that we kind of feel like victims, and we feel that things are happening to us and we cannot co-creator create whatever reality we want. So done is in the first degree of Sagittarius.
00:27:48:02 – 00:28:13:11
Lada
How she changed her life. She moved to another Sagittarius, and every time she started acting on the freewill of the sun. And the sun is the co-creative planet the more you act curses in Sagittarius. She started traveling first, moved to a new country, Sagittarius. Then she started traveling. And now every time that she feels that things are not going away, or that she feels she is losing her power, she goes traveling.
00:28:13:11 – 00:28:35:24
Lada
She takes a short trip or whatever. She uses this Sagittarius for it. Then she became a teacher and she's a teacher to 1 million people. She has 1 million, people that she teaches. They're all foreigners as well. So she again, for the blessing of the sun. And the sun is in the sixth house. If we look at the Placidus, she's a workaholic.
00:28:36:01 – 00:28:58:20
Lada
She dedicated her whole life to her work. And through her work. She came from a very poor family. She came from a very kind of traditional upbringing. And she created the thought in a different life that she is fully she feels very empowered. She and her best life was the solar afforded to travel all over the world to teach and for for it to be her work.
00:28:58:22 – 00:29:24:18
Lada
And she just kind of dived into the sun House and into the sun sign, and all the blockages in the life started disappearing one by one. My son is in the third house and my life only started getting better because before that I was also I was born, I was a, you know, I was kind of even homeless.
00:29:24:18 – 00:29:48:01
Lada
I had even addictions. There was a, immigrant in the foreign country without the documents to work. It was very hard. And the moment I start that focused on that sun sign, mine was here in the third house, and I said, okay, this is my free will. What do I do? Third House media. I said, I will open the YouTube channel.
00:29:48:03 – 00:30:08:15
Lada
And because I was trying before that those problems, you know, through media means I was just trying going door to door, whatever network. And I open the YouTube channel, whatever your son is trying to work through it. Even if you don't become world famous there, you don't have to. You would fulfill you start co-creating with God, with whatever you're meant to co-create.
00:30:08:15 – 00:30:35:21
Lada
You have more free will there to manifest whatever you want. and it's fascinating that when people listen to the sun sign prediction, many times they'll super resonate with it because this is what they want. What they because the sun is your free will, so that it doesn't always mean it happens, but it's on the mental level. It's on their head and they're excited and it's something soon is connected to the future, though usually making plans for that.
00:30:35:21 – 00:31:05:00
Lada
They really want it. Oftentimes a prediction from the sun side is something that you really want. You're excited about, or that it's really much in your mind that you feel really important for you to work over that. For example, if Saturn is trusting the second house for yourself, even if you are not in some financial problem, you might be like really thinking deeply that it's time now to save money, to be more, financially savvy, to be more masterful with your money and so on.
00:31:05:02 – 00:31:36:12
Lada
So all those look at the trend. Sometimes I love to combine, for example, say that as there is a transit, let's say the gain of Saturn in your 12th house from the sun. Let's say Saturn is trusting in the 12th house from your son, but in your ascendant sign it is saying that Saturn is transiting. Let's say your ascendant sign might be, let's face.
00:31:36:12 – 00:32:01:18
Lada
Okay, let's say that again. So from you are saying the sign Saturn is in the second house, which means something with many problems or you having to sell. well, something about saving money or, from your sun sign. Saturn is in the 12th house, which is connected to spending to ending something. Completing something. So I like to combine the meaning of the ascendant in the sun for a fool of you.
00:32:01:20 – 00:32:21:24
Lada
And so, for example, because I'm having this now, I can talk about chicken house is also food. So my Saturn stressing my second house. I'm super obsessed with cleaning up my diet. Saturn can give you the ability to say no to limit yourself with food and how you eat, and for me is like I'm cooking every day, very focused and so on.
00:32:22:01 – 00:32:48:09
Lada
and but the 12th house from the sun is about ending something. So I'm ending old ways of eating and habits and introducing new ones. Also, I'm spending a lot of money for houses expenses. Second house is money connected. So combine second and 12th with Saturn and I'm spending a lot of money on something that I'm investing so that it is because there is the 12th house energy to spend and so on.
00:32:48:12 – 00:33:29:11
Lada
So I always love to combine for someone. Saturn might be transiting in the seventh from ascendant, in the 10th from the sun, and you can combine both and you'll see that something is happening in your career that is very much connected to a partnership. So combine them both. You know, even with the moon, if you can add an extra layer, and that's how you, you get the most precise predictions, usually because one and as I said, the sun sign is often something that, if people have your sun sign, if you have especially multiple planets in the same sign, say your Capricorn, but maybe you might have the moon.
00:33:29:15 – 00:33:32:20
Lada
Sorry, Mercurial Venus there as well.
00:33:32:22 – 00:33:34:12
Amanda
Both. Yes, I do that.
00:33:34:12 – 00:33:55:24
Lada
So for you, Saturn can even resonate much more for your predictions than the ascendant side. If you have a stellium, which means another 1 or 2 planets, at least with the sun it becomes more potent than the ascendant. I've seen it over and over. Plus, your day born. So your this born during the day. The sun becomes your light so many times.
00:33:55:24 – 00:34:14:05
Lada
The prediction for Capricorn for you. So looking at Capricorn as the first house resonates a lot. And even sometimes I'm from the ascendant. I have four planets in my sun sign Mercury, Venus, Mars, the sun. For me, the sun sign works so well.
00:34:14:07 – 00:34:36:07
Amanda
Yeah. Same here, same here. Actually, when I read The Rising, it sometimes feels resonant, but the sun pretty much always does. Yeah. Okay, so this is fascinating. And there's what you have showed us here is that there is so much information to be gleaned from just these three placements in your chart.
00:34:36:09 – 00:34:39:09
Lada
Because in just one.
00:34:39:11 – 00:34:50:11
Amanda
Yes. So have you, I mean, with your students and with your own practice. Have you ever just done a reading based on someone's sun, moon and rising? Is that enough to give that?
00:34:50:11 – 00:35:17:04
Lada
I think when I teach, because now I predominantly teach. We always start at the beginning just with analyzing. I'll give you an example how this can be done. Simplest thing you can do to make like a summary of the look at their sign. Are they in female or male sentences? We separate them in male and female signs. Maybe like in Anyang, the male signs are areas Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius.
00:35:17:06 – 00:35:45:08
Lada
The female signs are Taurus, cancer, Virgo. Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces. So see, do you have all three or someone can have all three in just masculine or all three in just feminine? This will show so much about the personal rate. for example, a woman with all three in masculine signs like I have ascendant in Aquarius, sun in here is moon in Leo.
00:35:45:10 – 00:36:08:05
Lada
And then you add another factor is a they birth or night birth they show is the sun below the horizon or above for me things? God no. I'm a night person gives me out of the four factors one. Feminine. But yeah, the three sun, moon and rising. All masculine. What would that mean for a woman? We should be doesn't necessarily mean should look masculine.
00:36:08:07 – 00:36:41:14
Lada
Should be one going careers businesses can keep all active person someone who is initiate. These are masculine qualities like initiate initiative that's really treasured nowadays. For example a man this ascendant in Aquarius, one masculine sun in Capricorn, one feminine moon in Gemini, two masculine. They chart three masculine and one feminine, and the sun is.
00:36:41:16 – 00:37:09:20
Amanda
It's so funny when you were saying earlier that the moon, work that we do at astrology job is so important. It has been one of the main conduits for me into more of my feminine side. So I absolutely relate with that, that we actually, if we want to balance it and when we're super, you know, masculine, then it takes a little more effort, it takes a little more intention, it takes a little more like actually, putting some some focus on it.
00:37:09:22 – 00:37:32:24
Lada
Or consciously because when there's too much masculine energy, you don't know how to relax it. So go, go, go. And it's great for success and for such things. But then how do you self-soothe yourself and you do it through anything that is a feminine vibration, looking at the moon, and it can bring people, but women with too many masculine signs calming down.
00:37:33:05 – 00:37:55:21
Lada
But you see, because you have more masculinity, you organize things, you get things done, you have ideas, you initiate them. of course you have to take care of relaxing, but also for you when things don't go well. So someone, whether it's a man or a woman, if they're predominantly masculine, sun, moon or ascendant and they chart, they have to.
00:37:55:23 – 00:38:20:22
Lada
When things don't go well for them, they should not sit around and just they should get up and go and change things because this is the masculine manage. They're the ones to get themselves. So you're not feeling well. Go for a run, do something well opposite. If you have majority feminine, you're born at night. Moon in cancer, sun in Virgo, you know, ascendant maybe.
00:38:20:22 – 00:38:50:10
Lada
Maybe in the masculine sign. But you see, majority in feminine. These people and things don't go well or whatever. Or if they want, they have to wait till they feel better because the feminine energy succeed in life. After he starts feeling better, the masculine energy, it's not feeling good too. It gets active to change feminine energy. Wait, so you break up with time when you have mostly feminine energy, dominant, fiery, masculine, you can go rebalance whatever.
00:38:50:10 – 00:39:19:13
Lada
You can go and start a new relationship and will be okay. But the feminine energy wait, doubt, recover till you start feeling better and people with the feminine energy, even if their men wait out for the opportunities to present to yourself and then react. This is the lunar energy of receiving doesn't mean be someone who does nothing. Wait for the opportunities to open to yourself, then respond and you intuitively respond to the better option.
00:39:19:13 – 00:39:48:12
Lada
For example, my husband is his ascendant in Libra. That's the only and his son is there, but his moon is in Taurus. His son is in cancer, so he has two feminine and ascendant is masculine only, and the son is, you know, in the during the daytime. But I see a lot more receptivity. Things happen much more smoothly with people with feminine energies.
00:39:48:14 – 00:40:14:17
Lada
and there's less drama, but also they are, of course, you'd see such a man with more feminine of those three four elements, they're just gentler. They're in touch with their feminine side. Doesn't mean they're, you know, camp or something. It's it's calmer, softer energy. Things come to them. What we would find in masculine, we have to go and get that was you know.
00:40:14:19 – 00:40:36:17
Amanda
My man is a Taurus sun and Taurus Rising as well. And it's absolutely he's always the one making sure that I take enough downtime and I rest and I take care of myself. But it's like he has to literally coach me on that, almost on like a daily basis. So absolute. I mean, a lot of play night, masculine, feminine.
00:40:36:21 – 00:40:49:02
Amanda
What is the actual like the zodiac qualities as well that goes into the equation and then it any other element of the sun, moon and rising that really paints colors the picture.
00:40:49:08 – 00:41:19:16
Lada
Or will check out if you have mutable fixed or cardinal. So mutable fixed mutable signs are here. Pisces, Virgo, Sagittarius, Gemini. They fixed a new Aquarius, Taurus and Scorpio and Cardinal, cancer areas. Libra and Capricorn. So if you have a predominant stake in this case, we're looking similar. Ascendant. Say you have sun and ascendant in cardinal sign.
00:41:19:20 – 00:41:43:04
Lada
You can have them each in differ one fixed, one mutable, one cardinal, which is kind of more balanced person with different modalities. They can be present long term with the fixity. They can, change into New Year with the cardinal. They can also adapt to changing circumstances with the mutable. But if you see some more, let's say one dimensional, all cardinal.
00:41:43:06 – 00:41:54:23
Lada
What is good for cardinal signs? If you have a lot of cardinality soon and rising, these are start this move or shakers. But they do better brought cardinal signs because they that they.
00:41:54:23 – 00:41:56:03
Amanda
Do bad what.
00:41:56:05 – 00:42:17:11
Lada
A brought on. Yes okay things in text it like if you have many cardinal planets there you do better brought in the foreign control far away from where you're born, not far away, but at least not in your downer, that they need to move and such cardinal people. You look at them in five years, they have a totally new lifestyle.
00:42:17:11 – 00:42:41:12
Lada
Five years later, new job, new country, new boyfriend. They start. They have a lot of new starts in life. Even in the 60s. They can start the new. That doesn't scare them and it's okay. But there is this consistency, have fixity. You go there 20 years later, the same job. You know, they're just expanding, continuing, growing. They're the pillars of society, rocks of society.
00:42:41:14 – 00:43:04:05
Lada
and it's very good if you have a child with a lot of citizen or moon and at least two of them teach them good habits from little because they change their habits very hard. They teach them with habits. They'll stick them for life how to eat healthy, how to work. They teach forever the the fixed. They have problem changing, but they have the know how.
00:43:04:05 – 00:43:28:11
Lada
Almost like give them a direction. Then the cardinals give the direction. The fixed will follow this direction like a steam train and never. And they usually the ones that implement things and then the mutable. They also are like traveling. If you have more mutability, there is the mutable signs are very much about learning if you have a lot of mutability.
00:43:28:11 – 00:43:56:23
Lada
Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces, they they call them go with the flow. They are very adaptable. In ancient Vedic astrology, mutable signs a mixture of cardinal and fixed qualities. So a cardinal is one extreme. They start there like that at the beginning. Cardinals the end. They like that fixed. They like that mutable. They don't start well, but they are very good, ending things.
00:43:56:23 – 00:44:19:01
Lada
So, they get better at the end. and mutable are the ones that go and see where there is a problem. They they're the ones that can fix and adjust things. So the cardinal come up with the created the the fixed one implemented and the mutable go and look where the issue is. Fix them. They'll say, okay, we can improve on that.
00:44:19:05 – 00:44:41:22
Lada
And you have the three have fixed the send them cardinal some mutable one, which is great that you have from the three outlooks you can begin, you can carry on, you can end or improve on mutable signs. They improve that thing that the bull. So they love the all live learners. If you have strong math ability, just study and they learn to.
00:44:41:23 – 00:44:51:01
Lada
They don't start things from scratch. They take something that's existing and make it better to improve it in some way. So these are kind of the qualities I would give to the three.
00:44:51:07 – 00:45:18:19
Amanda
A lot of I love, getting to experience a little bit of your teaching, and I'm super excited that you're going to be an inner circle teacher with us. Come cancer lunation this year, July 2024. And you're going to be teaching a mastery class for our members on using House rulers. Would interpreting the chart for extra dimensions, can you tell us just a little bit about what our Inner Circle members are going to learn in this mastery class?
00:45:18:21 – 00:45:37:21
Lada
so basically I'm going to go through the 12 signs. You can use it on sun sign on or send them on the moon sign. They usually like to definitely look at it from ascendant sign. And you can definitely translate it the sun and moon. But we'll go through each of the 12 ascendant and see how their life themes are connected.
00:45:37:23 – 00:46:11:16
Lada
Because we're going to use traditional astrology here. But for each of the houses of each ascendant, the sign there is usually the same planet that those two houses say for Aquarius is traditionally ruled by Saturn. So for Aquarius, the first and the 12th house themes, all their life will be connected. That's why Aquarius people rising, in particular the path that they tread on, is a bit esoteric because the rule of the first and the 12th is the same, and that's why they often end up in foreign places so far away, both houses, faraway places.
00:46:11:18 – 00:46:35:14
Lada
And they are that they can feel at home because it's part of their path in this, in foreign places, even in extraterrestrial ships, whatever. So they're they're connected to the talkers. That's why Aquarius is a very spiritual sign, the same planet that rules them rules the 12th house. And the other thing, Aquarius their money. Second house is the same ruler as their network.
00:46:35:16 – 00:47:00:22
Lada
So for Aquarius to make money, they need to have a network. Then one is very much connected to who they know, who they connect with to. Somehow this. So I'll go through each of the houses. How they're connected by rulers. You don't need to know anything. You don't need to know your whole chart. Just knowing your ascendant sign from one side will give you some ideas how to be more successful in life if something is not going well.
00:47:00:24 – 00:47:25:20
Lada
For example, if again going with Aquarius, because with both Aquarius Rising, if you're having many problems, start connecting with like minded, go online and groups. Whatever. Maybe offer your services online and groups at the level. Also, you might be introduced someone introduced to someone, or if, if it's connected, if there's problems in your friendships, you can find friends who are lonely.
00:47:25:20 – 00:47:50:00
Lada
This is the 11th house. and it's a really painful topic for you there, but second house you might be can be fooled or whatever. Change your way of eating. And it's your teeth. It's simple remedies. You can, for example, do something to work. And I know it doesn't sound connected, but it is to improve how you eat, clean up your eating, or be financially blah.
00:47:50:02 – 00:48:22:15
Lada
And this will start improving your friendships because the same planet rules the two houses or whichever one doesn't work well because there might be some difficult planets in the other house or whatever. You go to the one that feels less painful for you, do the remedies then the things, and it will start to kill. So because they energetically connected and you might feel like house friendships and money, or someone can have children, fifth house and the same planet, meaning the second house, actually they might become they might be like, I don't want to have children, maybe I should not have children.
00:48:22:15 – 00:48:38:19
Lada
But if it's the same connection, actually, I have two children. Those people that money can take off and you're much more financially successful. The themes are connected. We're going to talk about how just by knowing your ascendant sign, you can see what themes can be connected to. So that's why I'm.
00:48:38:19 – 00:49:11:09
Amanda
Having this experience of falling in love with astrology again, just to have so much information in this astrological chart, in this moment of your birth you brought up in the very beginning, you brought up the breath and how the breath activates that imprint. And it's just fascinating to see how how many links, how many, nuances, how how many layers there are that just continue to get unpacked and it's so it's endless and it's endless and it's just so beautiful.
00:49:11:09 – 00:49:17:13
Lada
Gemini. Mind you, Gemini Moon must be gone. Don't want I do what I do I really.
00:49:17:13 – 00:49:20:08
Amanda
Just like I get to I get to be in that place where I feel so.
00:49:20:08 – 00:49:21:09
Lada
Nurtured all.
00:49:21:09 – 00:49:48:15
Amanda
The time. Because I just get to keep learning from amazing, brilliant people like you. So thank you for being here. Thank you for being a part of our inner circle. I'm so excited to have you for the first time as a teacher in the Inner Circle. That mastery class sounds amazing. I can't wait and I hope that all of you found this helpful, and I hope that it did what it did for me as well, which is just to unpack so many different layers and just three simple placements in your chart.
00:49:48:15 – 00:50:12:13
Amanda
You can just focus on those for a long time and get a lot of information. And at the end of the day, it's all about falling in love with who you are living and expressing that blueprint as best as you can. One of the things when you were talking earlier about the moon, for me, it's been just knowing that I'm a Gemini Moon.
00:50:12:15 – 00:50:31:08
Amanda
Understanding what a Gemini Moon needs and giving my self permission to give me that. Because before I would feel bad that that when I was emotionally triggered or when there was something happening, I would need to talk to someone. I felt needy for needing that. And now it's like, actually, no.
00:50:31:10 – 00:50:35:18
Lada
That's what you have self-soothing with. You have your yes, yes.
00:50:35:18 – 00:50:55:05
Amanda
And it doesn't always have to be the same person. So that person doesn't have to get, you know, tired of listening to whatever it is, but that I just I need a friend or I need someone to talk about it with, and that is perfectly okay. And my Sagittarius man needs to go out in nature and have his alone time for a moment.
00:50:55:09 – 00:51:17:07
Amanda
You know, his moon and I don't need to take that personally. Like that means something, you know? So understanding these things about ourselves and about each other allows us to support and nurture and love them the same way that we were more capable of doing for ourselves. So it's just it's all amazing. Thank you lot of for being here, for sharing with us.
00:51:17:09 – 00:51:29:00
Amanda
yeah, for for teaching, for just being such a beautiful presence and for your commitment to astrology and your own education and learning, and then your willingness to share that with people. It's really beautiful.
00:51:29:02 – 00:51:32:05
