Interest in drugs and drug use?

What in a chart may indicate an interest in trying drugs of any kind (psychedelic, depressant, etc. etc.?)

I know that environment has a lot to do with whether or not a person will be exposed to different kinds of drugs and whether or not they try them and continue to use them, but it seems to me that some people have a natural interest in drug use.

This can come out in different ways - wanting to try new things, enjoying distortions of reality, interest in spiritual growth from drugs, and so on.

So, what different aspects or placements may encourage a person to have a seemingly natural interest in drugs, and for what reason? Any personal experiences you have to offer?

Please don't just tell me the simple pisces sun answer...

Update:

That's weird... because I have a capricorn stellium in the first house, and I'm a pisces sun... and I really don't like drugs personally. I am all for people using them if it makes them happy and isn't severely hurting them or f*cking them up... in fact I condone it in some cases... but they're just not for me at all. I always thought my capricorn stellium was part of what STOPPED me from having any interest in drugs. I don't have an addictive personality at all, even if my moods are all over the place, even when I'm at my most down.

Perplexing.

    If it were just Neptune and Pisces, I would have become Queen of the alcoholic drug abusers long ago. I have Sun, Venus, Mercury and Mars in Pisces. I have Moon and Neptune in conjunction on my ascendant. I rarely drink, and I take narcotics when and if I have major surgery. I prefer the real endorphin highs of overcoming challenges, coming in first at a track meet, learning skills or being with those whom I love.

    I think there has to be more than hard aspects to Neptune or having a sun sign of Pisces. In the charts I've observed, I've noticed extremely harsh Jupiter and Mercury aspects along with the detrimental Neptune aspects. Neptune may be wanting to escape, but Mercury is doing the reasoning, and expansive excessive Jupiter is saying, "It's ok, have several more drinks... and if one pill makes me feel this good, why not swallow ten."

    The first aspect that really comes to mind is Neptune opposition Mars.

    That aspect points towards a a fascination for all things mystical and illusions. It also indicates a lack of practical reasoning. A hard time using rational thinking and a love for thrills.

    Neptune, here, would shroud Mars with a veil of fanaticism and a strong attraction towards anything exciting.

    Carol: So...I guess I love pot then, huh?....kidding...kidding.

    Haha. It's alright, and no, I haven't tried it, so I wouldn't cast away your theory as of now. =)

    Just to expand on Judgement : Capricorns are prone to it.

    My rising sign is in Pisces and I used to get extremely, extremely high...Like, my weekends consisted of acid, beer and marijuana..My brother is an Aquarian with a Capricorn stellium, and he too has had a serious issue with drugs in his life...he had to go to rehab at 16 for crack/cocaine.

    My uncle is a Capricorn...a multi-millionaire, but he's addicted to pain pills and drinks constantly, day and night, he always has a high-ball in his hand.

    I'm a Capricorn, and it could be a mixture with my rising Pisces, and I smoke cigarettes. I've been smoking since I was 12, and I drink about 1 and a half to 2 pots of coffee a day.

    I don't do drugs anymore, but the thought of whiskey really does make my mouth water, so I don't drink often, and when I do, I keep it to a minimum.

    Any serious depressing signs would be prone. Gemini's, Aries, ect., usually don't get into drug use, atleast in my experience. Virgo women smoke pot too, they love it. I know that sounds like a generalization, but even Virgos I never expected, love marijuana, even if they choose not to par-take because of legal issues, ect.

    Source(s): heh whisper : My first guess would be: you don't dislike it, if you've ever done it, but certainly, I am not condoning it, if you've never done it. *wipes sweat form forehead* *edit* Yes..perplexing indeed. I'm only giving personal experience...I think if I weren't a Capricorn, with plenty in my chart, I would possibly be more inclined to have continued drug use...It start very young, and ended very young too, about 14-16. I think neptune conjuncting my ascendant definately played a role, that and the environment I was in, environment is the largest factor, and my rising sign is pisces, so I tend to mix into the atmosphere, even psychologically... Addiction is a state of mind, and that's what drugs do...they alter your state of mind...It's kind of a catch-22 to ask an addict to be reasonable... But, for the Capricorns I know, they seem to take on addiction easily. F.Y.I. Iris is making an excellent point...The best and worst aspect of my chart is Jupiter square Sun, and my Jupiter also squares my Mercury, so she hit the nail on the head, for me anyways....it makes me prone to thinking I can handle more than I really can...Uranus square ascendant doesn't hurt either.

    Capricorn, Pisces, Scorpio are the signs by statics. Why Capricorn? They are more marijuana smokers and when their own self control and workaholic behavior combined with that Capricorn's believe, that nothing too good will ever happen to them might cause relaxing with illegal drugs. Scorpio was there too, i think from same reason but still yet different, scorpios just get lost to that dark world and their own mind (scorpio are too heavy drinkers often, by statics). Pisces, their way of adapting problems of world and other people, their sensitive soul always don't carry all that barrel. This my friends, was only by statics of sun sign, i read it from one magazine that had nothing to do with Astrology but this topic was done by some IB university.

    In other hand i think to check addictions 12th house, jupiter in 12th house should avoid alcohol and drugs. I think there might be some aspects causing too, what they are pls someone wiser tell me/you!
