1. The good or bad signified by a house emanates from the ruler of the house.
This is the basic rule. The ruler of the house is giver of the material of the house.
Zoller gives the example of his own chart where he has Combusted Mercury in 11th, ruler of 4th. He comments that this kind of placement brings adversity to ones home and dwellings.
2. Benefit in one area of life can be produced by adversity, or even conflict, in another.
Again Zoller gives example from his own chart.
Jupiter in 9th in Scorpio disposited from Mars in 11th: Wisdom coming from conflicts.
3. The delineation tells you the what. The
predictive techniques tell you the when.
4.
The Elemental Quality of the Sign of the Ascendant is showing the type of Primary Motivation of the native.
Fire
goes for freedom of action and power.
Air
goes for freedom of expression and movement.
The Water signs
need emotional security
Earth signs
need physical security.
The person with masculine Ascendant (or majority of planets in masculine signs) speaks in active terms: "I did this to that person".
The person with feminine sign on Ascendant or majority planets in feminine signs, speaks in passive terms: "This happened to me".
The Feminine signs seek advice because they need second hand in their decisions, in fact they want someone else to make the decision for them.
Masculine signs seek advice because they have many options so they are not sure which option is better.
Cardinal signs are most active. Cardinal water and earth (Cancer and Capricorn) are working great amount of actions but in circumstances and environment structured already by someone else.
Libra and Aries (Cardinal masculine) are working great in any kind of circumstances.
Fixed signs are centripetal, they need center. They are very successful in Acquisations.
Taurus hoards money.
Leo hoards glory and honor.
Scorpio hoards the hidden things, hidden motivations of other people, seek energy and vitality.
Aquarius hoards Knowledge.
Mutable signs vacillate between the two: cardinal and fixed.
5. Examine the planets which most closely aspects the Ascendant. These planets add to the whole Primary Motivation thing.
Planets aspecting the Ascendant represent powers the native can use in the world.
The aspecting planet's local determination will be added to the Primary
Motivation.
(Venus in 5th will add love for pleasure and entertainment to the native's Primary Motivation).
The aspect between the aspecting planet and the Ascendant tells you how the being of the planet and its local determination are linked.
6. The Ruler of the Ascendant by its house position tells you where (what area of life) the native will seek to realize his/her Primary Motivation.
Look also at all 5 dignity rulers in the place of the ASC. The Almuten and Exalted ruler are lamost as significant as the domicile ruler (sometimes even more).
The Ruler of the Ascendant (as well as the other rulers) by its nature and zodiacal state shows the methods the native will use and the success or failure of the drive.
I will continue with the tips in my next post.
