- 10° - 20° (second week of the season)
- 20° - 30° (third week of the season)
For example: January 15th, 2024 the sun is 24° of Capricorn making it the third decan of Capricorn
Expulsion of Adam and Eve, Alexandre Cabanel
Eris’s birth is a bit of a mystery - some accounts say she is the daughter of Zeus and Hera, other’s say she is the daughter of Nyx. It was Eris that turned the gods against each other causing the Trojan War all because she wasn’t invited to a wedding between Achilles’s parents, Peleus and Thetis. She brought the Golden Apple, or the Apple of Discord, to the party generally stating it was for “the fairest one” (looking at Walt Disney funny on this one because HI Snow White) - Hera, Aphrodite, and Athena fought over who deserved it. Paris of Troy was told to pick who got the apple by Zeus - Aphrodite promised him the prettiest woman in the world. Helen. So he picked Aphrodite. This is what caused the Trojan War. Eris IN MY OPINION shows a) where you may tend to start trouble, b) where you confront people most, c) the types of rivalries you may experience, and/or d) the type of exclusion you may face (check the other characters’ in the story and the aspects they have towards Eris for this one).
i encourage you to look into the aspects of eris along with the sign, degree, and house placement. for the more advanced astrologers, take a look at the persona chart of eris AND/OR add the other characters involved to see how they support or impede eris!

Brownsville, NYC never had a reputation of the low crime rate area, but it’s not an excuse to beat Brown so severely right on the Blake Ave at 10:34 p.m. for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

tend to be a bit timid in new environments, talkative when they’re comfortable; cautious people
typically very warm people (sometimes literally), gives mom vibes fr
super funny naturally, true comedians even if they’re just saying what’s on their mind
i’ve noticed cancer artists make really raunchy songs (ex: Work It by Missy Elliot, Big Poppa by Biggie, Candy Shop by 50 Cent)
♌︎ leo:
noticeable hair (ex: big hair, long + healthy hair, unique curl pattern)
everyone knows them, may not know everyone

the men look strong minded and strong willed (ex: Denzel Washington, LL Cool J, Zayn Malik)

tend to be frugal and in turn usually very well off or at least comfortable

just my personal opinions, accept it if it makes sense for you, thx!
I feel like Gemini placements can be shameless about diving deep into someone's social media and might not even mind if the other person finds out, whereas Scorpio might be the type to want to stalk someone's social media but have some restraint bc even though they know it's not possible they're still paranoid the other person will somehow find out they looked at their profile.
Someone's Mercury in your 12th house could mean that their voice sounds mesmerizing or even hypnotizing to you. You might find that the two of you have very isolated, intimate conversations where you both speak softly to one another.
Leos placements are probably the type to secretly fantasize about showing up outside your window with a boombox or writing you an epic love song. If they could live their life like a musical, where there is normal talking and then out of nowhere everyone breaks into a spellbinding song and dance number just to express their feelings, I think they actually would lmao.
9th house placements (except Saturn) may not be very self conscious or inhibited about what they post on social media, they can reveal a lot about themselves in what they post.
Moon in the 8th might lock the door to their bedroom or when they're in the bathroom even if no one is in the house but them.
If you're a Cancer Rising (esp in the Scorpio Decan) you've probably had multiple encounters in your life where you're just chatting with someone and then before you know it they're telling you something really deep about themself & then end it with "wow I've never told anyone that before."
