greatYes,actually you had helped me get an idea about dignities in another post,
Mercury however is Traditionally the "trickster" and not necessarily straightforwardThank you for your reply,yes i know but in my opinion
sagittarius straight forward,honest way
matches to mercury more than gossipy and distracted gemini.
Just my opinion.
Traditonally as I mentioned Mercury is in detriment in SagittariusActually i have been thinking the same about mercury in sagittarius.
Seems as the characteristics of this sign are compatible
to a real genuine way of communication.
generalisation is fun and temptingi just dont agree with some
so im just expressing my opinion having my mercury in its domicile,triplicity and terms...
your opinion is interesting, however keep in mind the table of ESSENTIAL DIGNITIES
Thanks Ilene - it's clear and unambiguousYour post contains a really nice display of the dignities, JA.
Thank you!
Interesting idea, but not applicable on our Traditional board
because
traditionally
Sun in Aries is Exalted
and
Sun in Libra is in Fall
Traditional differs from Modernist "Sunsign astrology"
and since this thread is posted on our Traditional board
the discussion is from a Traditional astrological perspective
By all means discuss "Sun in Libra lacks ego/identity so is spiritual & therefore Exalted"
on another thread, on a more appropriate board
such as our Modern Astrology board
or Research and Development
Traditional astrology rationale is established for past two thousand yearsThank you, thats a good idea, didn't know it interferes with
the Traditional astrology. x)
Capricorn is the only sign with a rulling entity that isn't a Planet. The sign that does reject the stays quo, does it even within the zodiac. Thank you goat god Pan.(No the asteroid named after him doesn't mean anything.) Don't belive me on Capy and the status quo.

ANGULARITY PROVIDES STRENGTH - not Sign
if you provide a link to thatJUPITERASC,
I saw you talking about detriment in here and quoting Valens
- I have not seen a reference to detriment by Valens.
He discusses fall, exaltation, domicile, but never detriment.
Could you post some quotes from Valens referring to detriment?

Mercury however is Traditionally the "trickster" and not necessarily straightforward
Traditonally as I mentioned Mercury is in detriment in Sagittarius
and for example
Vettius Valens states in THE ANTHOLOGY FREE to read online
pdf form at http://www.csus.edu/indiv/r/rileymt/vettius valens entire.pdf
QUOTE:
'....This star’s effects go in many directions
depending on the changes of the zodiac
and the
interactions of the stars
and yields quite varied results.....'
generalisation is fun and tempting
but unreliable
each natal chart is different
Vettius Valens also mentions
QUOTE:
'....As for the end result
Mercury will make everything capricious in outcome
and quite disturbed.
Even more, it causes those having this star in malefic signs or degrees
to become even worse....'
if you provide a link to that
then that would be great
Mercury however is Traditionally the "trickster" and not necessarily straightforwardUnless you are merely referring to the quote you posted below and not to detriment itself

so that's your usual advice to newbornsOnce you master a planet, especially with age, it's no longer a 'detriment',
LOL!
