The Sun Signs and Friendship



Friendship is an essential part of our lives and sometimes friends matter more than our immediate family and its members. It is said that even the Devil has his own friends. In astrology the 11th house is said to rule friends and their relationships. Astrology gives much importance to relationships like spouses, partners or lovers but friendship related issues are usually shooed off. But in this age where divorce rates are going over the roof friendship is what makes people to remain glued together come what may.

Apart from the 11th house, the 4th, 5th and the 7th houses also have their say in friendship. Some astrologers say that the 11th house is a social house. The 3rd-house friendships are with neighbors, the 4th house rules friends with whom we live and are part of the our family, 5th-house friendships are with people we go out and have fun with, 7th-house friends are particularly close and in a partnership, and 9th-house friendships are those we form in educational situations, friends we learn with.


Planets and friendship

The Sun or Venus in the 7th house of the natal chart rules warm and lasting friendships. Mercury in the 7th house shows an interest for younger friends. Saturn posited in the 7th house gives problems in friendship and points to older companionss. The north node in the 7th house indicates friends who steer your personal destiny. If both the Moons are compatible then the friends are said to have a better level of synastry and companionship.

I tend to get along with any person, but it's true that Libras are usually closer to me.

Great article, I can really relate to many of these.

While Libras tend to romanticize their friendships (because Libras mostly romanticize EVERYTHING!), it is Sag and Aquarius who make their love interests their "buddies" (much of the time to the consternation of their love interests!)

This is so true! As an Aries, I don't make friends easily. Usually, people think I'm arrogant the first time they meet me. But, if they give me a second chance, they realize very fast that I'm very far from being arrogant.

As a Virgo I do tend to have long lasting friends. Can't say I enjoy running around all day with them though.

This is very interesting. Until it's otherwise shown in one form or another, I like to think the world is all my friend, even if we have not yet met.

Ceres and Our Inner Emotional Life

Ceres connections in synastry can reveal how one person accepts (or doesn’t) their partner’s nurturing. “Nurturing” is defined as caring for someone, and fostering their growth. Ceres (or Demeter) is named after the Goddess of the crops. She had a daughter (Persephone) and they were close. So close, in fact, that Ceres never wanted to let her go. Then Pluto (or Hades) kidnapped Persephone and dragged her off to the Underworld. Ceres’ grief was intense. In retaliation, she denied mankind their food by making the crops wither and die; she was hurting, so everyone else would as well. A deal was eventually struck with Pluto, and Persephone was allowed to spend part of the year above ground, with her mother. This was when Ceres allowed the crops to grow. When Persephone spent the rest of the year below ground, the crops were dormant. So Ceres’ cycle of growth and loss reflects the cycle of life. In your chart, her sickle-shaped glyph describes how you handle that cycle.Aspects to Cer

Venus in Aquarius: What to Expect

What's Up:   Take note, Venus is in Aquarius from March 5th to April 5th in 2014.  The fresh air whirls around in love and friendship, with Venus in this air sign.  This follows a long, 'heavy' time with Venus in Capricorn (early Nov 2013 to March 5th).  The 2014 March forecast features Venusian behavior, with aspects that free relationships from deeply ingrained patterns.  A key word is freedom, to update our social lives, to align with who we've become and are becoming.  Social Buzz Venus has been under the influence of Saturn, the planet of responsibility while in Capricorn.  Now the love planet has some  breathing room  in this air sign--  what's favored is meeting others in a friendly, detached way. The Venus Aquarius  natives  are restless, and ready to break with convention.  The same tired way of engaging, stilted etiquette and the habits of being  politically correct  are blown apart.  Aquarius is the sign of scrambling the same ole, w
