What You Don't Understand About Your Birth Chart 

'Did the world exist before you were born?' 'Well, I'm a Leo, so no' 🤷‍♀️ BRO SAME ♌😂

I personally found that the ruler of your ascendant points the way to which house is most important for you. If the Moon rules the first house, and it is in the 7th house, you spend all your time looking for the perfect mate.

I had a traditional astrologer figure out that I was a war refugee from Eastern Europe by looking at 2 planets in my chart. Nothing else. I was shocked and amazed by ancient astrology practices ever since.

This needed to be said and you did a great job!!

I thought the north node was your life’s purpose. Something you keep avoiding that “fills your cup”, and you can fall in your south node trap (I.e, comfort zone). But you’re right, whatever it is needs to resonate with your soul. You have to feel it❤️

Well it's true what you Invision your perfect manifestation looks like in your mind it fantasy, that is the building blocks of what you actually accomplished in your manifestation when it materializes. Example as a child I envisioned living out in the wild mountains, no one for miles, living off the land, free with nature. Well the actual manifestation I developed after a live of struggle was an RV lifestyle fulltime, not living in a van or box truck but an actual RV that I have pets, tools, books, guns, everything I need to live comfortably. Keeping in a warm climate weather it's summer in the high elevations or deserts in winter. Now...perfect...hell no, crowds of others, homeless car dweller that society forsaken, horrible roads accross America, and limited free government land to camp on, but it's still better than what I had. Great content on this channel. 🤙🤙🤙☀️

So insane. I have Gemini in my 6th and I'm in a 6th house year - I literally had to put my cat to sleep at 2 years old for rare heart condition we had no idea he had until Mars Rx in Gemini last year. I was expecting her m to get sick I really was because he was my world. But that was and still is one of the hardest things I've ever had to deal with. And I've been homeless, addicted, pno parents, overdose..trauma abuse SA DV..I've been through a lot. But this really broke my soul open. It happened in December. He got sick first, the middle of Nov. I thought he was alright but he went into heart failure and I euthanized him so he didn't suffer rather than giving him meds for a year while he struggled every day. It's heartbreaking still😭 I'm still trying to figure out wtf I am supposed to learn from this.

Thank you for this video. Since astrology has gotten a lot more mainstream, people are misunderstanding a lot of things about it. I would love more videos like this, like maybe a "Do This, Not That" type of topic, or more "Astrology Basics" - including what modalities are, a little more about aspects, people should read their 'horoscope' based on their rising sign not their sun sign, etc. Not sure if you've done something like that yet! I'm just seeing a lot of people constantly focus on their own and others' big 3... When they should be focusing more on other things about a chart. I just can't tell you how many people claim to be into astrology and "know" astrology but don't know what modalities are, don't understand aspects, or even degrees, and some people think cusps are still a thing... 😅 So THANK YOU for this, Cam. Your content is always so quality.

With this one video I'm pretty sold on your personal philosophy regarding astrology. Over the last 6-8 months I've been watching different people on youtube, have done a few short workshops, and have been checking out different authors on the subject, but I have been waiting for something to really click. Click! Looking forward to researching more of your work.

I just thought of a good metaphor for astrology. Imagine you are a car. It helps to see what make it is, and forecasting is just the road, what hills are coming up, speed bumps, turns, when to stop and go, and strait aways...weeee

A wonderful video. Thank you. The notion that its not all about me resonates very much. We don't exist in a vacuum.

I love how clarifying this was! As a long time enthusiast I know a bit about astrology but there’s always so much more. And your explanations and analogies are always so great. Thank you Cam! Been with you here since White Light times and even before your dad’s passing. ❤🙏🏽

Love this Chanel Accurate and Balance at the same time Life Purpose is everyone's interest Without it, Life is meaningless Finding it is Fulfillment. Try to go back to the Source of Life then you will know the Purpose. Ask what is Life? The answer will lead you to Who you really are. And when that happens you will live according to your purpose.

This was so interesting! I was born at 1:15am and I'd never heard of the day and night distinction when it comes to a birth chart, as well as the idea of looking to see where the ruler of the ascendant falls in the chart. Thanks for sharing!

3rd time watching this video…the last point is just so spot on. Thanks, Cam!

A house has a gate, a front door, and several different rooms. I think quadrant houses should be looked at and researched in terms of the culture at the various times in history each was popular, to ascertain the specific relevance of each variant of house cusp as an area or room within an house. What happens when this specific cusp is ingressed versus when that particular cusp is?

Really liked this! I have played with different house systems but still come back to whole sign. It really helps, personally, given that I have a few planets right on the edge of two houses. About hearts desire, I completely agree with you on that! I followed a vision of what others had for me to go into healthcare. Despite my passion being in writing, art, storytelling, cinematography, astrology and Tarot. When I studied my chart a bit, I did discover that passion is represented with my 10th house Leo Mercury/MC/Sun in exact trine to my 2nd house natal Sagittarius Neptune. When I dug a bit deeper into the lord of my second house, Jupiter, sitting pretty in my 12th house exact trine to my 4th house Aquarius Moon the puzzle all clicked together.

Thank you Cam! People need this badd!

Thanks for another good one. I personally am not a big fan of the whole house system. I recently learned about it, since I dug deeper into astrology and learned tons of things, i.e. dug deeper into houses and all that is related to them. I am technically a scorpio ascendant, but in such late degrees that there‘s only a tiny bit of scorpio 1 st house, the largest part of my 1st house is in Sagittarius. Since I found that out I began watching for example Sag monthly or yearly videos, i.e, now for 2023, and looking at my chart it feels SO much more accurate to me than thinking of scorpio 1st house, since that’s only 5 degrees left. So of course I am aware that the, say, Saturn and Pluto ingresses into their new signs this year will reach my 4th (Saturn) and 3d (Pluto) house (looking at my personal chart) a bit later during the transits, but it feels A LOT more accurate than going from scorpio 1st. So I guess I‘ll skip the whole house system and stick to Placidus which I feel at home in. As for the purpose subject, I‘ll keep it with what many spiritual people say: people‘s purpose is to just BE. That said, it makes life so much easier not to have to dwell on finding a certain purpose by all means. Simply BE and make the best of what has been given to you, talents etc., that‘s how I look at this.

7 degree Scorpio ascendant. Ruler Pluto and /or Mars with Aries sun early ascendant degrees makes whole sign a bit easier lol 14:59

backgorund music groovy , nice touch!

I was born Late night March 20th. Everything I knew about astrology, which was very little, told me I was a Pisces. Then when anyone would say I acted like a fire sign I would argue with them. Anyway, I am actually an Aries sun Sagittarius rising. Found out last year 😂

Life is like a recipe….. you have ingredients - but not all are good cooks =).

Thank you very much I really hard to understand astrology by people speak in english through explaining verbal. but thanks for this content, you put illustration visual, I easily understand what you really say.

wtf..... i was doing it all wrong... now, I am enlightened. thank you so much for sharing this

Man everytime I watch your videos I find myself agreeing with damn near everything you say plus I often times learn something new. You rock Cam! I believe you said you live near Denver. I'm about 30 mins south! I was so damn bummed out that I missed the picnic 😢 However now it makes sense why it didn't work out. The amount that has clicked and the amount I've learned since then is huge. In other words , I was not ready and would of looked a fool. Watching this made me realize how much I've learned. So grateful for your videos and you obviously 😄 much love

totally get what you have said - thank you. yes, trust your heart and interpret it with your mind but your heart runs from the feelings that your body is experiencing so the gut is the instinct - and the gut is focussed on the belly button where we were attached to our mums body - our first experiences. we are energetic creatures, as are all creatures, first and foremost, and our physicality comes from our energetics that we experience, but are not capable of measuring cos everything comes from it

This was really helpful Cam. thank you so much 🫶🌻

I watched this likely just after it came out and then I checked your website and skimmed some of the content and the portion where you mentioned sourcing your actual birth time rather than believing your mother gave me a laugh and I thought I might never know because the only legitimate record I might be able to get would require paperwork and more funking around than I'd like to do. Of course I don't believe my mother but I only had her word on it so I've been using that time for a few months now and I really couldn't make any sense of my chart at all. Then, yesterday, I went into the back of a drawer on intuition and found and immunization record with my birth time on it 35 minutes before the time she told me and it changed my ascendant and some other thangs. It makes more sense now. Not a lot of sense because I'm a n00b but you know, thanks for the advice and I just had to leave this little story.

this is one of the best educational astrology content I've watched!!!

This is very helpful! I always love your take on things.

I came across your videos for the first time today ( weird because I watch a lot of astrology content) and everything I thought I knew about astrology just went out the window 😅🤦🏾‍♀️. You've taught me a lot in 20min than what I've learnt all these years watching other "astrologers" on RU-vid. Like I didn't know about the day and night chart ( learnt about that on your Saturn in Pisces video) and it cleared up a lot of things for me. Thank you, I appreciate your content 🙏🏽 You have a new subscriber in me 😁👍🏽

I have a T square with my big 3; Taurus sun, Aquarius moon, Leo rising. I feel like a walking contradiction most days

Wow, I gained a couple of real nuggets out of that ❤

Well said refresher. Quick and easy to follow. Love that it broke it down "simple stupid". Thank ya Sir

This is the best video you have ever made. Life is eternal "dance" of fate and free will. Birth chart is a map, indeed but very difficult to navigate sometimes.

It seems to me that the most important factor in defining your meaning is the combination of your nodal axis (interpreted as in evolutionary astrology) and the position of Sun.

yeah astrology can be extremely complex and daunting at times when beginning, thanks so much! this was very simplified and needed information.

ASC = aqua rising ( I feel more like aquarius I feel disconnected from this world) Sun= cancer ( I don't feel sensitive at all) they say cancerians are sensitive Moon= virgo (I'm a perfectionist and a workaholic)

He’ll no rising and my rulerships being in “blank” said house . That being said i have a night chart but my sun and moon are the same sign and also are the same in Vedic astrology :) ✌🏼💕

Cards, yes. It's my turn to deal...

This vid is so top notch, everything is really coming together in terms of an aesthetic for you and it's great to see!

Booms! Thank you very much

So instructive! Perfect Cam! Thank you! 🙋🏼💝

So interesting. I have a night chart with moon on MC. Aquarius rising and Saturn in 4th opp moon. I have lived in over 100 houses. Feel like a gypsy. I hate it and just want a forever home. I'm 50 and have hopefully just moved into one!

To the point and informative, I really enjoyed this one. Much needed :)

Great video, thank you.

i always thought a square was more intense than an opposition! i’ve learned something :)

Yay, looking forward to the transit videos.

Been studying for 7 years always learning something new. Thanks Cam

Thank you

YESSSS to #5. Can you please tell all my clients this. 😂

Great explanation…I’m 0 Scorpio, Libra moon. Have some Scorpio traits after 40…before then very Libra.

I really enjoyed your perception and opinions. I definitely got something from this video, thank you!

I'm a Leo Sun / Aqua moon born at 5pm est on a full moon, So maybe more a moon child but sun is in 8th house so a day child.

Interesting take, I'd say my views are somewhat similar in relating to astrology. Thanks 👍

Thanks, Cam. Appreciate you sharing your knowledge and insights! 🌻

Whole sign houses…this is the way.

Very good presentation I think and very honest and accurate remarks on the assets and limits of astrology. Following Robert Hand's advices, I've found the Koch house system quite relevant for me. I've also found precise and reliable pieces of information on the midpoints' system of the Ebertin family.

Great video Cam! Very informative and IMO your best one yet. Thank you.

Thank you Cam. This is very helpful. I always say you've been given a hand of cards...how do you play them?....excellent!...rock on!!!!

Thank you so much for this video! It was super helpful!

This is gold!!! Awesome work Cam!

Not you mentioning Scorpio in Venus and the moon because those are my placements ( and Scorpio sun ) and I do feel some comfort when I'm feeling down 😔. Damn! Am I broken? 🤦🏾‍♀️

I do love that poker analogy! Got to play my hand better.😀

Homework!! Thank you Cam 🙏 🎉

My irony is that i was born at midnight, under a full moon and w the sun in libra so the sun is also in its fall. You would think moon must be the most significant luminary for me and i should probably consider sun as a secondary, less impactful maybe but then bam, i got that leo ascendant so the sun is my chart ruler 😅 It gets confusing like that sometimes. My chart (and my self) is full of paradoxes like this, i guess we contain multitudes like walt whitman said ✌️ In astrological terms there are lots of oppositions (and squares and i love/resonate w ur perspective on the squares) in my chart so the energies require some blending otherwise it feels like im a walking paradox, no i'm not. Sayanora everybody 😭

Ty Can🌹🍎

What about just when the sun is setting down? How shall this aspect be considered, as this is basically on the border line?

I'm a double Virgo, both Placidus & whole sign. My ASC is 16° & I was literally born at dawn. I wonder how this differentiates things. 🤔 I'm ruled by Mercury because I also have the moon in Gemini, which squares my Virgo sun. 🤓😵‍💫🧐🫡😄

Thank You!

This was really good

Thank you for this Cam

wow thank you, I feel like this was made for me.....

I love your way of explaining, you are my favourite astrologer

That’s interesting…thanks for sharing, but what if you were born at night and your asc is at the end of the house, for example at 29deg and 25’, will that influence too? Will your asc be “less important” and you should pay attention to the moon?

Excellent synopsis.

Thanks Cam

I’d love to know more about chart patterns. I have a Yod and a T square and my son has a Yod and 2 T squares. How do I use that info?

May I ask... how greatly should DST periods be considered.. ? Also, end degree signs cusps are quite complex to work with, do we apply both? The sidereal seems to connect dots better for me than tropical...... similarly to be said that campanus and whole sign house system seems more "applicable"...

11:43 So, don't you look at Uranus, Neptun, Pluto, SN/NN Transits at all?? As most astrologers in social media don't answer questions, I don't expect to get an answer, but it would be nice to know your opinion with transits of the outer planets or the nodes.

porphyry?

I was born at night on a full moon, so I'm guessing that I am represented by my moon huh?

This is awesome-as always

Wow, this one was really great.

Super exiting video!

ThankYou so much

I remember when U started, U have gotten so Professional. (Remember what U Called your channel?)

thx Cam!!! 🤩

Best astrology content on RU-vid🔥

Great video!

ahhhhh you're one of my favorites now-

Hi Cam, you limited the transits to the "personal" planets. Does it mean that transits from the outter planets have less impact? That they have more an impact on our environment than on us directly? I was wondering... and I surely subscribe to the idea of Saturn transits being heavier. I cannot wait any longer to see Saturn moving to my 6th house, so exhauting in the 5th house 😵‍💫

Waiting your music bro at least so much experience you got about it

you said: "placidus is more subjective and whole sign is more objective" but why is that so?

Great video.

great stuffffffff
