I'm reading "Horary Astrology" by Derek Appleby (an Aqua btw). In the book he accepted exalted placements as valid for mutual reception. But he noted that mutual reception with hard aspects would mean a yes in horary question, though it would most likely become the classic "be careful what you wish for" situation. Not sure about natal though. It could look like two people with old grudge for each other but choosing to look past the grudge to achieve a common goal, because one complements the otherHadn't thought of mutual reception using Exalted placements. I've always seen it as Domicles, but I like the idea. How would you say the Square affects it? I could use Exalted for mutual reception in 12/12, although not in this case, since Mars is Exalted in Scorpio.
Derek also said that if a planet is neutral or weak (fall, detriment) but is in good aspect with a strong planet (domiciled, exalted), the strong planet could act as a helping hand for the other planet. Not sure how this will play out in 12/12.
