Are you more Astrologically Feminine or Masculine?
This topic was created in the Astrology forum by PhoenixRising on Saturday, April 23, 2016 and has 37 replies.
"Take a look at the signs that make up your entire astrological chart. Look at all of your planets' signs to get an overall view of how many are in masculine versus feminine signs. You may use the test below to determine if you are mostly masculine or feminine in your overall astrological composition. Take the time to complete the test. Many people are surprised to find they are actually more masculine or feminine than they thought. Most often, we identify with only our sun sign to get a sense of whether we are more masculine or feminine. This can be deceiving. Sometimes the sun sign is overwhelmed by the other signs in your chart. A masculine sun sign, for example, can be overwhelmed by a moon and other planets in feminine signs, or vice versa."

Depends on how masculine the guy can shine by comparison
I think I'm a good blend of both.
My score is 56 ...with rising sign..
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing!
With Pluto and Neptune I am exactly on the middle as far as my chart goes.
Thread is interesting but the points system is way off if we don't put it into context.

Haha, I didn't get "Very Feminine", as I thought I will, because Aries gives the highest points for masculinity. Here it makes sense!
This test is cool just for fun, especially for seemingly balanced charts, with a variety of both feminine/masculine signs. (:

Definitely masculine.
My north node is in cancer so im trying to be more feminine. I almost never wear pants anymore. Wearing a dress helps men not be to intimidated by me.
I score a 67 but my 6 planets in the 5th house make me more masculine

72. But I strongly disagree with the final sentence interestingly enough.
74 – 53: More Feminine...
63 – 45 without rising sign
You take time to feel and savor things as you move through life. It’s more important to experience the moment than it is to push forward. You use caution in making decisions because you are aware of the dangers in life. You understand your feelings and the affect you have on other people, making you careful in communicating with people. Feelings are more important than facts.
I think this fits me well

Na, I'd rather be in the middle than either extreme.
But with the points and planets considered..More masculine.

According to this, I should grow a mustache and change my name to Frank.
Plus.. they have Cap as a feminine sign. I call bullshit!
It's too linear and it doesn't take into consideration that the same placement in a man or woman can play out a lot differently; it can go either way or even both ways at the same time.
Lol @phoenix
I got 86. i kinda agree but i feel more feminine.

I wonder what Giacomo Casanova - Pisces stellium (mercury/venus/mars/jupiter) + Scorpio Rising - would have thought if people of his time had told him he was very feminine, "cautious in moving through life and always vigilant to every possible danger".
Very similar chart by Heath Ledger, another prime example of femininity (a score of 26 from Moon to Saturn)... Also funny that the latter played a fictionalized version of the first; it's like the role was written for him.
Could an overabundance of feminine placements, once you manage to deal satisfactorily with them, turn you into someone very masculine at the end of the process?

To have feminine energy is not the same as being feminine.

"Turn"? I have no idea. I don't even think it works that way. I would think if you can manage vs becoming overwhelmed by parts of yourself that seem to dominate your personality (masculine or feminine) it would allow you to become more balanced.

Maybe "turn" is exaggerated, but my idea was that a man who's very comfortable and not ashamed of showing his sensitive side would be seen as very masculine/bold/hot by most women. Being forced to cope with so much feminine energy may, if he manages to come out on top, ultimately "turn" him into the ultimate version of a man: confident in his vulnerability and proactive to life.
My 2 cents.

Actually that's my idea of masculinity. It's the opposite of attempting to repress your insecurities...any suppression is made of fear. If you're confident the way you are, you care less about how people vision you. In the case of highly feminine men, I can give example with two men I know in person, both with Cancer Moons (both have other water placements, too). One of them is quiet when he feels like being quiet and goofy and humorous when he wants to. The other one is always tense, tries to avoid awkward situations at any cost and tries to fulfill the stereotype of "manliness", but it seems forced... First guy has a feminine Sun sign, the other - masculine, so I endorse your hypothesis that this extreme femininity "turns" into masculinity.

Ah okay. I see your point. Once explain, it wasn't an exaggerated use of the word
Your 2 cents is more than welcomed. I guess I was thinking more along the lines that if a man (or woman) can see the energy that seems to dominate their personality as a necessary part to move them forward vs being overwhelmed by it or afraid of it, they would feel more at peace within themselves and move through life differently. Not too different from what you were saying, however with your reference, the man (in this case) feeling "forced" to cope with energy that one deem unsuitable for a man feels a little black and white to me. Meaning, there is a belief that as a man, feminine energy should have no place in his life; it isn't meant to be there by virtue of him being male. Therefore he must cope with, deal with or manage it. In this respect, feminine energy is not seen as a compliment to his personality, a way of balancing his life to help him become more capable as a father, partner, teacher whatever, but something he has to be contain. On the other hand, if a man is comfortable with the feminine energy he has, he may be seen as a "stronger" man for not being afraid to embrace energy that frankly is not worse or better than the other, it simple is. It is there, within you for a reason. I say figure out why that is, harness it to be the best you can be. I'm not sure if I am explaining myself well here.
We can flip this to a woman that has a lot of masculine energy as well, I am just using men/feminine energy to explain my point.
This is not to refute your point, simply to expand on what I was thinking as I read your posts. This wasn't even the goal when I created the thread, it simply evolved as everyone began posting.
more feminine smh *is male* *not surprised tho with my cancer placements*
With my rising it's 47, without it's 37. Very feminine is what it said..
You feel things deeply and take in everything you encounter, experiencing things thoroughly. You are cautious in moving through life, always vigilant to every possible danger. Your sensitive nature gives you insight into the feelings of others, making you very careful in communicating with people. As people often affect you deeply, you are also acutely aware of the affect you have on other people.

Astrologically, no.
Personally I see astrological masculinity and femininity in a different light. Those with heavy or significant water placements can be ruled by emotions. Those with earth placements are more sensual and level-headed, and sensuality can be associated more with femininity. Then there's air that's associated with detachment, logic, and intelligence. And fire that's associated with leadership, aggression, and freedom. I think men with heavy water placements will always be astrologically feminine and regardless of how they decide to "turn" that energy to compliment society's perceptions won't change the fact that they're ruled by emotions. That they're sensitive even with their tough exterior. It's one thing to accept and embrace one's energy, but I don't believe you can change it (as it's an internal programming), you can only make it appear that way. As for women who are ruled by masculine energy, they're very quirky and confident. They are achievers. Not saying those ruled by emotions don't strive like that but it's just more natural and easier for those with masculine energy because they don't let emotions get in the way as easily. You see this reflect all the time in the corporate world. Those who are ruthless and less emotionally driven lead. Their way of approaching things around them is more systematic and linear. And that dominant quality is associated with masculinity. Whereas emotions and sensuality can easily sway one's direction if they're not balanced in their natal chart.
This test is a little skewed but for the most part those who got their results I'm not surprised by. You can still be emotionally ruled and radiate masculine energy depending on your placements. That's why I called out stelliums lol.
TL;DR if you process things through emotions (feminine), you won't suddenly wake up one day processing things systematically and linear (masculine). You can apply that, but one's energy is internal, you can't change it. That's why opposites and squares can be incompatible or complementary.
@PhoenixRising
I agree with you, my example was black and white but just because the scenario I was referring to (Casanova/Ledger) was extreme considering they would have scored less than 30 without their Aries sun, therefore a radical approach was needed and preferable, at least if your idea is to fully exploit the potential of your chart, to distinguish yourself and excel.
I don't see feminine/masculine energy as better or worse, I equally value them, although it can't be denied that too much energy of a type may go against your true nature. Therefore, there are certain placements is best, if we consider what the role of a man "should" be in modern society (not that I care that much), for a guy not to have, like for instance Cancer mars. While I like Cancer moon for men (great potential), Cancer mars is just a no-no, not on this planet at least.
As regards flipping the script to a woman that has a lot of masculine energy, it can be similar yet not the same. She could become, in the end, the ultimate "femme fatale" and struggle with temper while in the process, but she'll definitely have an easier time adapting to those energies that will just make her extra tough and goal-oriented.
Besides, women are far more complex than men and they will still have, despite all the astrologically masculine energies within them, a better knack for the emotional realm. Men are "simple" and society, but more importantly Human Nature, for the simple fact they're the more dominant gender in terms of physical structure, expects them to be the go-to person for stability. It's around men the people are supposed to feel safe (rightly so), not women, which is why I'm saying it's a bigger struggle for men to deal with their feminine energies, considering they're not as used as women in dealing with their latent opposite nature.
It's a prerequisite for men to be able to "provide", just like it's a matter of survival for them to be able to initiate and lead sometimes. While an overly sensitive man runs the risk of being alienated by society, a woman don't, she will always get approached if she puts herself out there, someone is going to notice her eventually and will want to take care of her. Not a single woman will knock at the door (imagining his house has a door) of a man who's insecure and can't cope with his feminine side, he'll most likely become a reject from society.
Also confidence it's a precondition for men to be attractive (more like a precondition for women to find him attractive) or even simpler a precondition for them to interact successfully with normal people, again a survival issue. For women is more like a "bonus", given that men don't really care and will still be drawn to them regardless, actually a lot of men may find a very confident woman intimidating, I don't personally but some do. It's empowering for most men to know that the other person is counting on you.

Speaking of the points system, I just thought the idea behind was interesting but the table could have been done better; they could have at least made two different ones according to the gender referred to, considering the nature and modalities of the energy too.
I'll just make an example and then stop because I'm writing too much.
Capricorn mars in a man's chart is a hella masculine (I don't know I guess), just like Capricorn mars in a woman's chart is a hella feminine, so I thought it was wrong to take that singular placement and place it among the feminine energies just because Capricorn is supposed to be a feminine sign, nothing more.

I endorse your theory regarding people with strong Aquarius placements being the possible fruition vehicle of dogmatic beliefs.
