“NASA
released a false-color image of Pluto on Thursday, revealing an
unprecedented view of the planet’s vividly contrasting patches of
terrain.”
This is kind of interesting if you think about the
themes of Pluto - rising from the depths of darkness into eternal light.
There’s a change in colour gradient that seems to reflect ascending
from the bloodied coldness into the golden riches of divinity. And then
there is the wings of the phoenix to take them there
An intercepted sign is a sign in which no house in the natal chart begins. While that sign is still within a house, no sign starts in that house. Because of the symmetry of the natal chart, if there is an intercepted sign in the chart, there is always another one opposite that sign. For example, if Cancer is an intercepted sign in the natal chart, Capricorn must also be an intercepted sign.
Because there are twelve zodiac signs and twelve houses, if there is an intercepted sign in the natal wheel, then there is also a duplicated sign, which is a sign in which two houses begin.
An intercepted sign indicates a sort of “blockage” in the chart that keeps certain traits from shining through in a person’s personality, keep the traits sort of bottled up and repressed inside the person.
The ruling planet of the intercepted sign (for example, if you have Cancer and Capricorn intercepted, the ruling planets are the moon and Saturn) might also be repressed in the natal chart.
To see if you have any intercepted/duplicated signs, go to http://astro.cafeastrology.com/natal.php and enter your birth information. In the first table that comes up, you can find your houses on the righthand column. If any signs are skipped in the list, they are intercepted. If any signs are seen more than once, they are duplicated. In the table below, for example, Virgo and Pisces are skipped making them intercepted signs, and Cancer and Capricorn are seen twice, making them duplicated signs.
If Aries and Libra are intercepted, you have problems being assertive and aggressive or finding balanced, stable relationships.
If Taurus and Scorpio are intercepted, you have problems finishing projects and tasks all the way through or overcoming problems.
If Gemini and Sagittarius are intercepted, you have problems taking in information and prioritizing information.
If Cancer and Capricorn are intercepted, you have problems translating your dreams and ideas into action.
If Leo and Aquarius are intercepted, you have problems being in the spotlight or pushing the boundaries
If Virgo and Pisces are intercepted, you have problems distinguishing what is realistic and what is too over the top and idealistic.
Capricorn is the ruler of the tenth house and symbolises the archetype of ultimate potential. The sea goat is remarked upon as an expression of this sign’s dynamism, that which is capable of mastering both ocean, sand, and mountaintop. The tenth house or the midheaven is a place we may spend our time fantasizing about being or becoming.

"Mutable people need lots of interchange, interconnectedness, lots of personal interrelationships in their lives - relationships from person to person, but also from person to animals, plants, objects, and situations. In fact, they see the whole of life as being one giant web of interconnections from everything to everything else"
"In a prosperous society, most misery is self-inflicted. We smoke, eat and drink to excess, and become addicted to drugs, gambling, credit card abuse, destructive emotional relationships, and simple procrastination, usually while attempting not to do so."

"she is venus. she is the most beautiful creature you’ll ever know. when you first see her, you’ll stare at her for a few minutes, wondering how someone can be so alluring. she jumps from lover to lover like a child playing hopscotch. you’ll ask her to meet up and she’ll agree, excited for a new romantic adventure. but once you get involved, you can’t get out. when it comes to girls like her, it’s either fun or it’s forever. and if she falls for you, consider yourself lucky. she falls in lust with too many, but in love with only a few. when she invites you to her house, you’ll find her art studio in the middle of her living room, and at once you’ll be in awe at her talent. when you stand there, admiring her paintings, enjoy it. you’ll soon discover how good she is at her other talent - breaking hearts just like yours."
