Chart full of critical degrees

[m0ney*p0wer*re$pect]

i need help and decifering this b/c i looked at my chart and it is full of planets that are in critical degrees.


first from what i have read the critical degrees are as followed- 0, 13, 26,(cardinal) 8-9, 21-22(fixed) and 4 and 17(mutable)


my first question is what does this mean? that my chart is full of crisis that i make for myself in my life?

my sun, moon, mercury, mars, saturn and pluto all are in critical degrees. does this add emphasis to how they are expressed or how they need to be expressed


and second, do the degrees only count if they are in the right mode like my mars is in 4 degrees libra, which is a mutable degree even tho libra is a cardinal sign? what does this mean for me

The critical degrees only count for that modality. So if a planet is in a cardinal critical degree, but a mutable sign, nothing will happen.

They just tend to make planets operate stronger.

We are all visual people and need to see charts please?
Critical degrees are used more by Traditional astrologers rather than modern astrologers.

May I suggest you read the 'welcome to the world of astrology’ and other ---sticky' at the top of this forum? It has some great explanations, links etc. At the top of every forum there are lots of ‘stickys’ which explain matters in that forum, along with guidelines & tips

There is a 'plethora' of information on AW, espec in the 'stickys' at the top of every forum, our Education forum and Recommendations forum to. Plus we have a good search feature,[but not foolproof obviously, so try here first] bit like google using keywords –initially select advanced and try just selecting 'titles' rather than posts or you'll get too many threads. If this doesn’t get results then try google
