Anyone never traveled?

It’s very roughly estimated that approximately 75% of the world population has never traveled outside their home country. A large majority of people will likely never experience life beyond their own borders and cultures. That’s so heartbreaking to me because I love traveling. I think my natal chart makes it significant too. I lived majority of my life thousands of miles from where I was born.

I’m curious to hear about those that haven’t traveled outside their home countries. How their natal charts look.

That I’ve traveled to so far? Bora Bora. Just my husband and I on any tropical getaway is what I love and always crave but I’m currently severely restricted with a 1 year old. The logistics of the amount of baggage that child would need (especially due to her food allergies) is just not feasible until after she’s 2 or 3. That is if we don’t have another one holding us back longer 😭 Maldives, Bali, Turks and Caicos are high on our list next. I love Europe, we really want to visit Switzerland but I didn’t have the best experience going to some countries in January. I can’t stand cold weather. My parents wanted us all to do a Mediterranean cruise soon until covid hit. We’re hesitant on cruising for the time being since most people we know come back with something. Just kind of sad and vicariously living through others traveling atm. What about you?
My only actual fear in life is traveling in an airplane. Like some people freak out when they see people parkour tall buildings, or stuff themselves in tiny underwater caves.

Me personally I draw the line at flying in a plan. You will never catch my ass in one ever.
I just traveled out of the US for the first time last year...I have a Leo stellium in the 9th house...do with that what you will lol. While it was cool ish and all...meh, I could really take it or leave it 🤷🏼‍♀️. It just seemed more stressful than anything but I'm thankful I got to do it at least once.
Bora Bora is definitely on my bucket list! I love to travel and need to break my workaholic tendencies and do more of it. Costa Rica was 🔥. Plans for Italy in August.
Just to Mexico and the Caribbean. No real plans for Europe.
Totally with you on that. I'm always thinking about and excited about where I get to travel to next. The mind opened to a new experience can never go back to its original parameters. It's hard to have a narrow world view by exposing yourself to different cultures, languages, food, and history. Most people are afraid to step outside their comfort zones or have their false beliefs challenged. I don't get it. You have one life. Why stay in the same place where nothing happens and you never learn anything. I have the opposite fear: there's not going to be enough time for me to see all the places I want to.
My Cap g/f loves to travel and we’ve had a lot of adventures together. She has every detail planned out, I throw some gear in a bag and figure out what I want to do when I get there. 🤣 I make her more spontaneous and she makes me more prepared.

You go everywhere! Would never think that to be a Cap thing.

👍🏼

I presume you flew? If so, I can see why traveling would be off putting! Even for someone who absolutely lives for traveling, I find flying over the past decade has become royal pain in the … neck!


Any places you’d recommend visiting whilst there?

The flight home was a nightmare...and that being the second time of me flying ...left a bad taste. I wish I could recommend something but we just stayed on the resort...the area outside of the resorts aren't the best but they do have some excursions.. I opted out of any.
It's got nothing to do with natal charts sweet summer child
I've been overseas, done two working holiday visas. I'd like to travel again but it's expensive and I've got other things I want to put money towards. Plus I live in a goddam nice place so I don't really need to go anywhere else just yet. I'd like to go to some big city's again one day that's about it.
Despite living the US all my life, I've never been to Mexico. Unless you count Los Angeles as used to be Mexican territory back in the 1800s. 🤷‍♂️ Never been to the country that my parents came from either. Though, I have been to France and peed into a hole on the floor. I guess that's my real-worldly experience. I like my quiet boring place. I get stressed out easily and am not great with people. That said, I do like learning about the world -moon in 9th.
Actually, if you think about it, traveling used to be a "rich people" thing. It still sort of is, which is why I don't think people travel outside of the country they were born in as much. You can definitely travel for cheap, but even where I live, I definitely don't want to travel to where it's cheap. The bed sagged and there were potholes in the parking lot.. I'm just saying.
I can’t imagine reaching the end of my life and not have travelled. Some of the most interesting people I’ve met are well travelled.

I first flew (to Spain) when I was 21 and have since visited 12 or 13 countries. Luckily just before Covid struck I got to visit Edinburgh, Barcelona, Florence/Milan and Lisbon with my family. One of the coolest things was seeing the place where one of the Assassins Creed games was set in Italy. Great fun for our lad as he was mad for that game.

Statistically it’s safer than car travel Soul
I’ve only travelled a very limited amount: Scotland (doesn’t really count as it’s not far!), Ireland (same as the UK really), France and Spain.

I do find it stressful. I would enjoy going somewhere else but would need another holiday when I got back. 😅

I know people say that, and I believe it to be 100% true. At the same time it's still going to be hours of pure deep anxiety for me even with that said.
No I never traveled outside of my country. I'm fear of flying. My chart even say so and I believe it. I'm strictly a ground man. Not air.

It’s a shame you’re missing out

I’ve never heard of anyone dying in a plane crash but plenty in cars

Would you consider hypnotherapy….it may help?

Holidaying is a luxury privilege.
Have you travelled much?
I've only been to Canada and Mexico, but I do a lot of regional travel and trips.

I have my Taurus Stellium in the 9th house, so at least once a day I'm researching or planning logistics for a trip often in other countries even if they are outside of my reach at the moment.

I currently have three trips booked for this summer, and planning a 4th, and if I'm home for too long, i get an itch. I have to leave i have to get out of my comfort zone, and have new experiences.

It was an it's in it's way to being so again.
It's a privilege to be able to travel. Not everyone can or have the means to travel.

I feel lucky and count my blessings that I can travel as much as I do but it's also because I enjoy traveling. I've been to 6 countries the last 5 months not counting the one I'm living in. That's the perks of living in Europe where you can experience a whole new culture and language just a short distance away.

That’s an interesting fear since there’s plenty of statistics out there that show planes are safer than cars. You can be the best driver but it’s constantly all the others on the road that you can’t trust. I been traveling on planes since I was an infant. Sure I start praying hard during turbulences but they feel like you’re being rocked to sleep 😅 So you’ve only ever drove interstate?

That’s interesting as I have something very similar in my chart too. It definitely depends on how strongly you feel about the destination. I couldn’t just go anywhere for the sake of traveling.

Bora Bora is definitely on my bucket list! I love to travel and need to break my workaholic tendencies and do more of it. Costa Rica was 🔥. Plans for Italy in August.


Bora Bora is a total picturesque experience. Kind of annoying to get to unless you’re in California (literally every visitor we interacted with was from there except us) but worth every bit.

I’ve considered Costa Rica with a baby since it’s a few hours away and it kind of reminds me of Hawaii (I looove Hawaii but it’s so inconvenient like over 10 hours of flying from Texas).

Ahhh Italy! 😍 So much to see but soo little time unless you’re like there for months! It’s great you’re going in August cause that’s one of the countries I went to in January and it sucked being cold and rainy since you do tons of walking there. How long are you visiting for and what cities?

Sounds like a typical Cap and Gemini to me tbh. I need a Cap gf! It’s exhausting being the one doing most of the detailed planning.

My moon’s in the 9th too except learning about the world is not enough!

If you’re in America what about going out of state? What placements or aspects in your chart do you think shows that?

There are some who travel with not much on their backs or bank account! A lot of the younger generations are still living with their parents into their 30s using their saved money on luxury travel more than ever vs dealing with down payments and mortgages.

If I go out of state I do so in a motor vehicle on the road. And I never go no further than Texas if I'm traveling west.

I think cancer Mars people aren't too fond of flying. And I got that placement. Despite having a fully packed 9th house i'd much rather not do any traveling. I like to stay put. I don't know but I'm blaming this all on my almost ripe old age rather than blaming this all on astrology.
My parents started taking me out of the county when I was 12 or 13. By age 18 I had seen most of Europe and the Caribbean. The only time my best friend had ever left the country was when we took a weekend cruise to the Bahamas which was like 10 yrs ago I think. She doesn't even know how to get on a plane. She's a Capricorn.
Probably going to go back to Australia at the end of the year for Christmas in the summer time 🎄☀️

Yes, and regardless of being safer it's hours of extreme anxiety. In a vehicle I can at least feel a sense of control, so it's not the same. I've only been from PA to FL.
Most of the people I have met in Ohio have never left Ohio 💀 like imagine this god forsaken place being all that you know……. 🤦🏼‍♀️ in fact, a lot of places locally will look at you and talk to you as if you’re retarded or an alien if you don’t know things the locals would, like about the area. It doesn’t compute in their little heads that a person might be from outside Ohio and that they might just, in fact, leave Ohio one day too! Weird, closed minded people up here for sure.

Also when I was living in Arkansas, a chilis waitress reported my ex bf’s passport to her manager and denied him a beer because she informed us with confidence that she suspected he had fraudulent identification. It was a Belgian passport………. I honestly wish I was making this up.
