I hesitate to get off topic, since we're discussing cusps, but cusps are involved in this.
You can find your Moon Nodes in any online ephemeris. All you need is the date of birth. One site (of many) is www.astro.com. The North Node represents lessons you have learned, & are now using to benefit others. The symbol is like a cup turned upside down, "pouring out" what you have to offer. The South Node represents lessons you have to learn in this life, & the symbol is reversed, like a cup you need to fill.
It is not unusual to be drawn (for friendship or any other relationship) to your opposite sign. You are not really "opposing", but rather creating a polarity or balance between you.
It's interesting that you have so many "cuspers" in your family. I would guess that indicates that you are all learning some pretty powerful lessons, and all in transitional processes.
Since I'm an Aquarius/Pisces cusper, I see Aquarius as giviing me the foundation (astological studies, etc.) to express my Pisces side, since I've long felt more Pisces than Aquarius.
Thanks for sharing.

I just happened to remember that an ephemeris will only show your North Node. The South Node is always exactly opposite- that polarity thing again.

hi there,

I was looking for fellow cusps here to start a discussion on the topic.

Im jan 20 1983 and I'm only born about two hours into aquarius.

my question for the fellows that read this is whether or not they identify with the other sign more? do you feel that you are an even blend of both signs?

I ask this because growing up, I showed alot of aqua tendencies but i really identified with cap and now that i am an adult, i feel much more comfortable in being an aqua and view the concept of a capricorn as very restricting.

any thoughts?

The ONLY reason you identify with the sign before or after Aquarius is due to the fact there are 10planets in a natal chart and you may well have your venus or mercury in the sign before or after. Apex actually means point and your sun sign changes at a given point in time.

Basic astrology
Now basically your sun sign is your 'core beliefs, values, ego' and Asc is your physical body, mode of expression and mask and persona that we all wear and hide behind, but definitely not what's going on underneath. What's going on underneath is your Sun sign. Moon sign, house placements and aspects describe your emotional and intuitive responses, also describes your view of your mother, as saturn describes your father by sign and house position.

So, think of a glass milk bottle the bottle is your Asc and your sun the milk, but the milk still has to 'come out' through the glass neck of the milk bottle....

Now aspects within a natal chart represent 'facets' of our personality, because we are all multifaceted beings. What these do is 'break down and compartmentalise' these facets into smaller bite size chunks. This does take quite a lot of self analysis and objectivity to 'see yourself' and why you do certain things and behave in certain ways. Actually it can be quite good therapy...

Remember back to your school days an opposition is 180', square 90', trine 120', and sextile 60' Now challenged aspects are conj (depending on the planets, cos some like each other and some really don't) squares and oppositions. Easy aspects are conj (if the planets get along) eg: Jupiter conj Moon, sextile and trine. Quincunx is inbetween (depending on the planets) causes health strains and unresolved or hard to balance planets/energies.

Three most important things in a natal chart are SUN, MOON AND ASCENDENT. Then once you have your chart from www.astro.com (free by the way) you could thenb have your sun sign is conjunct a heavyweight planet from Saturn onwards, ie: Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, that sun person automatically becomes and honorary Saturian, Uranian, Neptunian and Plutonian because the contact and influences will be very strong

What Astrology Can and Can Not Do

MC is our professional image and how we want to be perceived in society, career/workwise, what we are/become known for which is different from Asc or sun sign

SO, until you actually get your chart (ie: foto as to where the 10planets were and in which houses) you will not know where your planets are ---
