Who has the same placement? 😭
So I just read about the meaning behind it and it was not all good. Of course there's a negative side to every placement but the description to this placement seem morbid to me. Like there's a tendency to be an alcoholic and other addictions that can ruin my life or I'll just get crazy.
I also have a Retrograde Mercury in Taurus in 12th House, well crap.
Venus in Taurus in 12th House too, what the hell.
An astrologer friend of mine told me it's just plain horrible for me. I don't know if he's just kidding though.
I'm actually just laughing about it because I don't see myself suffering THAT much.

well, I have six planets in my 8th houses and Neptune in the 10th house (basically I appear as a pisces to the masses).

Three planets in the 12th house...can you manage?
I thank God I'm an Earth sign. Being a Taurus pulls me in reality and keeps me from making mistakes. I do agree that my life is kinda hard but I have a high spiritual energy than most people.
I have too many retrogrades too.
Retrograde Mercury in Taurus 12th House
Retrograde Mars in Virgo 4th House
Retrograde Pluto in Sagitarrius 7th House
Retrograde Chiron in Libra 6th House
Retrograde North Node in Virgo 5th House

Like wow :o

Sun and Mars in 12th house I don't think it's bad necessarily . We're def different . As I get older I'm more comfortable w who I am. Embrace it work with it . Typically a loner I see beauty in dark things and I'm attracted to dark things . I don't think I could ever really be addicted to anything but prone to depression.
I'm also prone to get depressed for no apparent reason. I just lose interest in things that I liked doing. Motivation is nowhere.

@maybethecosmos - wow you have like 4 planets in that house, can't imagine your life and a water sign too.
I haven't read up much yet on what it totally means but yeah it gets intense lol. You mentioned alcoholism and addiction earlier which makes total sense since that runs in my family/has been a big impact on my life. Weird how that works out lol

I find this article accurate.
:



Your desire to achieve takes on a quite peculiar form, in the sense that you are unable to resist the appeal of mystery and you cannot help withdrawing from some events. Your natural inclinations often prompt you to isolate yourself and to protect your private garden because it is during such privileged moments, when you are alone with yourself, that you can go back to your roots and eventually blossom.

You have a strong propensity to introversion, tranquillity, and even a certain taste for solitude which may be natural or caused by the force of habit. But you are more secretive and enigmatic than solitary. It is just that a more or less important part of you (depending on the rest of your chart), is hidden and inaccessible to others.

You are sociable, but you appreciate discretion. You often show a real dedication towards people, and your compassion is one of the original facets of your personality which is not easy to figure out. You tend to forget your individuality and to almost negate it in some cases. You are not interested in personal glory, which is entirely to your credit. You thrive through selflessness, volunteer and humanitarian work, and the alleviation of the distress and the injustices which surround you, and which you sense more acutely than anyone else.

The paradox is that the more you distance yourself from society, the more successful you are, at least as far as your inner strength and your evolution are concerned. Working in secret or in a secluded setting often suits you very well. You are favoured if you are a writer, a painter, a medical practitioner, a psychiatrist, even a monk/nun, if your work is related to prisons, or if it is conducive to calm and contemplation. This does not exclude celebrity, but if you achieve fame, you ought to allow a hidden part of you to express itself in one of the areas mentioned above, for your own good.

According to the Tradition, this configuration indicates that your evolution is linked to ordeals and obstacles leading to a crisis and a period of solitude. Their finality is to enable you to be on your own and to take the time to ponder on what is really meaningful in a life journey which seems so absurd and mad at first sight. You do not need to worry because no predisposition is better than another one. We all have our own path, and yours goes through plain authenticity, secret, self-generation, as well as several periods spent far from social whirls and false relations which are only a waste of time.

Your accomplishment may turn you into the power behind the throne. It may take you into hidden topics which people do not talk about such as the supernatural, occultism, the great mysteries, etc.

Your destiny has a mysterious part which no one suspects. You are far from being the simple person one might believe that you are. Although you do not show it, you are aware that you do not match the opinion which most people have of you.

You are interested in situations which enable you to hide or to withdraw at certain periods of your life. This is often the result of a series of ordeals. However, beyond your defensive reaction, there is a genuine inclination for mystery and secret.

You must overcome your periods of isolation and ordeals because the reward is commensurate with what you are entitled to expect: swifter moral and spiritual evolution, wisdom, and a blooming personality. Some people choose small roads in the countryside for enfolding their life. You prefer to take the highway for your journey to your salvation, and you avoid the social illusions of ordinary life in society. More than anyone else, you are favoured. You are prompted to overcome pitfalls and to never let pessimism dishearten you.

@laFille - "The more distance you have with society the more successful you are." Like working in isolation? Since my Sun, Venus and Mercury is in that house. Means that my personality, love life/pleasures and communication is hidden. I don't really know myself sometimes, I'm too scared to fall in love and I don't speak fairly well. Thoughts are scattered, I love being alone too much, it creates a rift with other people.

Ugh...same here. Sun in Taurus in the 12th house. I have found that depression will always be a battle...when I feel it coming on, I try to find the root and deal with it. It took me a long time to be able to see it and address it openly and truthfully. I also know that I have an addictive personality and have to keep that in check. It's definitely helpful to be self aware and pay attention to your emotions and their root.

I have a split 12th house and a 4 planet stellium in there, Sun, Moon, Mer. and Venus. I DO know myself. I'm not selfless, not interested in a lot of 12th house stuff with the exception of metaphysics. I express myself visually more than verbally though I can do both and enjoy talking to people. I do enjoy periods of withdrawal from everything at times to recharge. Especially if I have a serious problem. I don't suffer from depression, but I did suffer from panic disorder years ago. This got better with life style changes. I think the whole 12th house thing gets better with age. You learn how to make peace with yourself and understand and embrace your place in the world. We do have one. It's just not exactly like other people's.
