Aglaya,
Very clear interpretation. Thanks a ton.
Well, a bunch of suggestions more likely, hardly an interpretation but, I am glad you find it useful!
As far as the duration of the chart's relevancy is concerned, would you take it as 6 months or the passage of L1 (moon) through the resident house? And why?
Well, a bit of both, really!
I should probably explain! I could say that I belong to those Horary astrologers who allow the chart to tell me as to how long we can expect its promises to last or how deep into the future it goes, if you like. So, technically, I wouldn't necessarily restrict it to a 6 month period regardless of the time frame into which the Question is set. You did a good thing when you focused onto the most proximate future however, if the chart tells us that the promise covers an even longer period of time, it only means that we are given an even larger picture.
If, for any reason, we need to focus on a very specific period (ex. a person needs to know if she will be able to finish a project due to a certain date) then we can simply take the passage of the Moon through the current sign as representative of that period. In this case, the next sign boundary is technically the representative of the deadline. I hope it makes sense.
The fact that your Moon has recently entered the sign in which we find it probably means that you have recently decided to turn your life in a new direction and that the course you have set for yourself is yet to develop.
However, when our question is open even for longer periods of time (like in your case), we take the 6 month period as a starting point
but, at the same time, we check the orbs of the separating aspect as they are the best key for deciphering the timing and the value of a single time unit. Namely, we take the orbs of the Moon's separating aspects as well as those of the relevant planets, and compare them with the events from the past. We do have some general system when determining time units (cadent houses- slow, fixed signs- slow, angle- fast etc.) but, the best way to check that is to simply compare the orbs with reality. Even the number of degrees that the Moon has passed since entering Cancer, in your case, can be indicative of the time that has passed since the last major change in your life. Some times, the degrees will not match but, in such cases, we have to take the factors mentioned above into consideration as well; if the orb of separation of a planet in a slow house (cadent) is, say, 2 degrees and, if the orb of separation of another planet placed in a faster house is 15 degrees than we can say that we have a match because we are talking about 15 smaller times units (days, probably) and 2 bigger units (weeks).
When you determine the value of the time units regarding past events, you can easily use them for the approaching influences and see as to how deep into the future the chart can see. Maybe it will be close to 6 months, maybe much less or much longer than that!
The last aspect the Moon will perform before leaving the sign is often indicative of the general quality of the endeavour (of any kind). The fact that, in this chart, the Moon will end its passage through Cancer with Full Moon is yet another warning.
I am going through bit of a rough patch with my ex. Does Saturn or venus resemble any one of them ?
Try to compare the characteristics of this Saturn with your ex boyfriend/husband. Since Saturn has entered Scorpio, I have had at least 3 romance charts in which this planet was assigned to the male party and I have noticed a pattern that quite fits the symbolism of a Scorpio Saturn. Although not the ultimate example of a bully, a person ruled by this planet can be very rough and sometimes have a tendency to aggressive behaviour. Saturn in Scorpio is almost completely immune to female energy (detriment and fall of Moon and Venus) which doesn't affect only the quality of his communication with women but also his "feminine" side- gentleness, warmth etc. The problem is increased when the Moon is actually placed inside its own detriment or fall- it's a mutual disagreement then.
Venus conjunct the cusp of the 7th could be an indication of another party but, at this point it would be worth examining all the factors and determine as to how well it describes your current situation. If it doesn't then we could be talking about an approaching influence in which case, as I already said, you are potentially risking starting an affair in which you might end up being hurt.
I hope this helps,
cheers,
