Greek Poetry

Sappho was a Greek poet that lived during the 7th and 6th centuries BC in the island of Lesbos and wrote a wide range of poems about love.

(80) Sappho enjoys very much the company of the other person and, although the main interest of (80) Sappho is not the sexual relationship, so that the phase prior to it extends more than normal, there is a clear passion that manifests itself through an assertive attitude toward the relationship. Also, he/she makes jokes and symbolic allusions to the sexual contact.


(80) Sappho is related to the stage of the relationship immediately preceding the first kiss, which is characterized by very common visits and encounters: more time is spended with the person that is special. There is spontaneous good humor and details of earlier conversations are remembered; he/she always looks directly in the face when he/she speaks, aligning the chin; it maintains a closer distance, from which the casual grazes are more frequent; sits and places in positions slightly open and shows a total confidence during physical proximity.

"War Games" (1983)

(80) Sappho creates a solid commitment, that is increasingly strengthening, as the relationship moves from one stage to the next (resonance 5:4 with Juno).

Ally Sheedy, actress of the movies "War Games" (1983) and "Short Circuit" (1986), has Sappho in Pisces (5th Moon-Node House) in opposition to the Black Moon in Virgo (11th Moon-Node House), and in square with the Sun in Gemini (2nd Moon-Node House).

[Hailee Steinfeld, actress of the movie "The Edge of Seventeen" (2016), has Sappho in Capricorn (10th Moon-Node House) in the Crossing Point of Age Progressions (Signs Horoscope / Moon-Node Horoscope), and in semisextile with Uranus in Aquarius (9th Moon-Node House).]
