    Airplane safety? Dubious about travelling

    Also, your interp was confirmed, Culpeper - it was an extraordinarily uneventful flight, with minimal turbulence, and arrived half an hour early because of good weather. The plane was also in great shape. I am, however, still curious about the method you used. In regards to my own practice, I...

    Airplane safety? Dubious about travelling

    That's a very interesting interp: I always use 9H (the house of pilgrimages and long journeys) for travel-related questions. Why do you refer to the 10th house?

    Airplane safety? Dubious about travelling

    I'm primarily seeking a second opinion (or three!) on this chart: As an extremely nervous flyer, I'm cautious about checking my flights with horary charts. This one has me a bit worried, and I'm wondering about changing my flight day. The reason this chart worries me is that the plane is...

    Top 10 Don'ts in Astrology

    - Believing that Astrology is in some way correlated with lucky numbers and lotto tickets. - Adding in every asteroid and harmonic gadget. - Giving readings on the assumption that the natal chart is the executor of someone's life, rather than the roadmap. Probably the biggest 'don't', imo, is...

    Help with Venus in Aries Guy!

    Precisely. The Martial drive can either be fast or slow burning, and in classical texts, the symbols of both Aries and Scorpio (commonly the ram for the former, and the eagle and dragon for the latter) were shown in conjunction with athanors. An athanor is a slow-burning self-inclusive furnace...

    Help with Venus in Aries Guy!

    Interesting you say that, as both Aries and Scorpio are fairly well correlated with business, especially entrepreneurship - but again, the Aries businessperson tends to be the extroverted sort (coaches, speakers) and the Scorpio, introverted (computers and Internet business, especially). In...

    Schizophrenia between the Sun, Moon, and Mars

    My experience with clients has been that there is often a strong Water-Fire element at play, usually with both planets and signs involved. One of the most aggressive and delusional clients I ever worked with had a classic configuration: Mars in Pisces, an unaspected Sun in Aries, Moon in Gemini...

    Help with Venus in Aries Guy!

    Well, they are both ruled by Mars (in the classical scheme) and exhibit the 'light' and 'dark' sides of that planet... their conflict doesn't stem from them having nothing in common - they are both energetic, intense, self-driven and passionate signs - but Scorpio is surely the introvert to...

    Self-sabotage / self-defeatism / self-destruction

    When I look at someone's chart and see Saturn opp. or square Moon, I KNOW this person is going to be self-sabotaging and prone to depression. The hard aspects between the two planets, especially in a night chart, indicates that the person's parent model was highly negative and that the child...

    Why is Regiomontanus used?

    Regiomontanus is the most 'earthly' of the house divisions, in that it is calculated by right ascension rather than celestial longitude, ie. by the position of the earth's place in regards to the celestial equator. Effectively, its the division of the sky into 12 chunks by observation from...

    are we twin flames

    The chart to me gives very little sense of reciprocality, though your emotional self is conjunct him. It could be a lot worse, and if nothing much has begun at this point, its definitely worth pursuing to see where it goes. But do be careful.

    Exact Jupiter-Uranus Conjunction on the Aries Point

    Its within 2 degrees of my natal IC, so I'm guessing there's going to be some interesting stuff happening on the home front. The Moon in the 4th would probably affirm that.

    Exact Jupiter-Uranus Conjunction on the Aries Point

    I usually hang around on the horary forums doing readings for people, but this caught my attention, and I'd be interested in some opinions from the predicative set. My solar return chart for this year has the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction on the Aries Point...totally exact, down to the second. 0...

    Answering "Why" Questions

    Answering a 'why?' question is best done by looking at dignities and house placement, first of all. You also have to consider antiscia, the 'hidden reasons' why someone out of sight cannot or will not do something. For example: "Why is my husband acting distantly?" Look first at how he regards...

    Combust Sun - but Sun is Subject Signifier

    If a planet must apply to the Sun by conjunction to make the aspect, then it cannot be regarded as a debility, otherwise the Sun would never be able to operate as a significator! In questions where the querent/quesited is combust and the Sun is not the querent/quesited, it has the usual meaning.

    i am waiting since 2003, for right love...

    The moon perfects an aspect to Jupiter - a new partner - in 6 degrees. It is fast/fast, so you may even meet someone around 6 weeks after this chart was cast. The Moon angular implies that you are actively looking, at this stage. If you are looking for someone, you will find them. Strong Venus...

    are the new energies changing the rules of astrology?

    This is worded better than I could possibly repeat. Just because something is new doesn't mean its more 'progressive'. I do horary professionally IRL now, and find myself answering the exact same sorts of questions that are used in ancient texts - people always have the same concerns, the same...
