Hello there,
I have a rather pressing horary question I’ve been trying to figure out. I’ve been seriously thinking about going back to school, and have been going back and forth over the subject for quite some time. I had recently, back in April, discovered a really amazing liberal arts college out in Arizona (I currently reside in California) that I found somewhat synchronously and on an interesting day astrologically…. it felt fated in a sense. I would have to move out there, so there would be some BIG changes for me, I’ve never moved very far from home before. The school is a rather prestigious institution, and they are quite selective in who they choose, although I don’t believe it’s as difficult as Harvard or Yale (even though they’re affiliated). After receiving their catalogue I felt a bit thwarted, or intimidated, by the fact that it was more challenging than I have perceived it too be on the website. So after some contemplation, I somewhat threw the idea to the wayside and focused on other alternatives for my future. As of lately, another series of synchronicities seem to be urging me once again to revive the idea. One day while hiking alone, I felt the need to ask this question, directing my question towards the Sun as he was making his way towards sunset in the seventh house.
With eyes closed, the sun beaming on my face, I asked, “Am I supposed to go to Prescott this coming spring? Will I be accepted should I apply? I plan on applying for the coming Spring term, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to start that soon, considering the fact I’ve been out of a job for a while and am unsure of how to handle the move financially. I feel that, if it’s meant to be, and once I get the wheels put in motion, things will fall into place. It’s always the way things seem to work out, at least from my limited 24 years of life experience. The reason I’m so focused on spring is because transit Jupiter conjoins my Ascendant at that time, and I had found the school at exactly around my second Jupiter return, and on the day Jupiter was trine my Sun…. so I feel it may be connected to Jupiter’s transit (or maybe not). I’ve been rather hesitant to apply, afraid of being rejected (I know I’m rather insecure, but I’m working on that). Anyway I’ve attached the chart, and I would really love any other insight or interpretation that anyone can contribute. Here’s my interpretation thus far. I have only one book on horary, and a rather ad hoc knowledge of the subject, but here’s the best I can do:
Pisces rising makes Venus in Virgo 7th house (almuten 0-8 degrees by day) my ruler. I’m a Pisces rising myself, so that seems to fit. Additionally Uranus is in the first, which also fits my rebelliously Promethean character traits. The Moon (my co-ruler) is in Gemini in the 4th house conjunct tightly the IC. This very much fits seeing as I have a natal 4th house Sun in Gemini. The only thing that doesn’t seem to fit is Venus in Virgo, seeing as I have ZERO emphasis of Virgo in my chart, how seriously do any of you take almutens’ anyway? The book I have places a major importance on them, so I feel I should stay true to the traditional rules of the art. I’m assuming the school would be the 9th house, considering its connection to higher education and long journey’s (it is far from where I currently reside). Almuten of the 9th is Mars in Cancer in the 5th house conjoined very tightly the South node. I read that any significator in the same degree of any sign as the nodal axis gives a kind of fated quality or destined feel to the situation…so I don’t know how significant the close conjunction to the south node is. However, both my ruler and the school are debilitated seeing as they’re in their fall. How should I go about interpreting this? Does it hinder the seemingly positive outcome between them? Venus (me) and Mars (the school) are making a sextile within 3 degrees and 26 minutes, which seems to be a positive outcome. I read somewhere that the amount of degrees between the rulers shows the amount of time for the final aspect to manifest, has this held true for anyone? And if so, does it represent days, weeks, months, or does it depend on the circumstance? The Moon’s final aspect is a Square to Mercury, which also rules the 4th end of the matter house. Does this also hinder the outcome? I feel I may be at odds in interpreting this chart myself, also with Saturn in the 7th. I read that Saturn in the 1st or 7th is a negative omen in horary, as it debilitates the astrologer, although in this case I’m not represented by the seventh. Perhaps it foreshadows the potential difficulty of the school and overall experience; there will be a lot on my plate I’ll have to deal with. I haven’t had too much stress in my life since I dropped out of the school I attended previously. Venus is applying to a conjunction to Saturn within 5 degrees as well, that doesn’t seem good either. Again, all this could also be suggesting the challenges that would lie ahead of me too.
Any additional tips or insight to help me out would be MUCH appreciated, as this is a very big decision for me. Thanks a lot.
