It is! To sum it up in basic terms, a profection year is basically whatever your age is and what house it corresponds to. For example, when you’re born, you are in your first house profection year and then you just go through the full cycle of houses each year. The house your age sits in is supposed to zero in on themes and important moments that will be happening in your life.

For example, I’m 23, so I’m in my 12th house profection year, and a 12th house profection year typically follows themes such as isolation, mental health, and letting go of things that no longer suit you. Generally speaking, it’s a rough patch to go through since this is the house that challenges you the MOST, so if you ever looked back and wondered ‘man, being 23 kinda sucked’, you can thank your 12th house profection year!

so there are things every person has in their charts called planetary aspects, and those are trines, conjunctions, squares, oppositions, and sextiles. Everyone has a little bit of everything, but it’s pretty common for people to have an abundance of one of these aspects throughout their charts.

For example, in this case let’s talk about squares. Squares are two planets that are 90° apart in the zodiac, and they typically mean challenges or certain friction in a person’s life that forces them to address and overcome obstacles. For example, I have a sun square moon, which talks about the tension between my inner emotions and my outer ego/persona. This aspect is also known as the mommy/daddy issues aspect which…no comment.

Now, squares are a pain in the ass, though they’re not entirely BAD despite my personal complaints and disdain for them. They force you to confront emotions and feelings that are unfortunately inevitable, and when you do learn how to overcome them, you begin to shine more as a person in whatever you do. Mark in particular has a LOT of squares in his chart, but it’s also tells me that he has put in so much work to overcome these obstacles that it has actually made him shine brighter in return. I think squares are super complex in charts and they’re not the most lovable aspect to have, but they bring an abundance of good karma once you set your mind to your inner and outer goals.

NOOOO definitely not unhinged 😭 I was so shocked bc it embodies a LOT of his chart, in fact, air takes up 55% of his chart! Him having an ascendant and moon in Leo is interesting bc it really captures him as a person from what we see. It really shows us that he’s someone who is VERY comfortable in the spotlight and enjoys showing off his skills and worth in a way that really impresses others. Him having Gemini Venus means he thrives in social settings and they absolutely HATE when things (specifically relationships, both socially and romantically) become stagnant or start to feel more like a routine. It also tells me that he’s naturally someone who makes friends very easily bc of how much they value human interaction.
