My sidereal chart is very different from the tropical 🤯

In tropical my big three are Virgo (cusping leo) sun Leo ascendant Cancer moon

And in sidereal

Leo solar Gemini Moon Cancer ascendant

And here I sit with perplexed connections to the info.

My understanding is that sidereal is a more direct and accurate snapshot of placements at the exact time of my birth. And that tropical is kind of your “easy as 123” style for westerners.

How did you all navigate your self understandings after finding sidereal astrology? After having known tropical originally?
