When Astrology is Frustrating, But You Need to Understand Something

If you feel stressed about your natal chart; restricted or stuck in some way, here's a few things to consider, some of which you may not have thought of.

See your current personal transits. Those are the current planets, etc., interacting with your natal placements and houses.

If that doesn't provide enough clarity, see your solar return for the current year (and any other year having to do with a specific situation or issue that keeps coming up.)

Something often not mentioned which can zero in quickly on where to best place your focus is, find any planet(s) or angle(s) which are particularly prominent in your chart by house, degree, aspect, stellium or as chart ruler, and do a return chart for that.

Your chart ruler is the ruling planet of your Ascendant (also known as Rising) sign. Example: I'm Pisces Rising, so Neptune is my chart ruler. My Neptune is in Sagittarius in the 9th house, so all 3 of those are highlighted for me. It doesn't return until 2143, so maybe I'll look at that chart in another life 😆.

If it's past life issues coming up and working with your nodes isn't helping enough, get at least the basic data for your Draconic chart, and meditate on it. Draconic charts analyze each persons spiritual nature before each transformed into the physical and the current ego, so prepare to shield and strengthen yourself as this could lead into the deepest of shadow work. The Draconic chart is the deepest of our foundational energies, and is seen as superior thought leading us towards souls purpose, through our highest natural goals.
